A high-pitched scream echoed through the entire Maple Villa.
Who knows what it feels like to wake up and find both feet flipping you off!
Xia Yao’s pretty face was filled with horror.
Zhong Yingxue in the next room thought something terrible had happened and rushed straight in.
“What’s wrong, Yao Yao! Ah ya, why aren’t you wearing pyjamas again? How many times have I told you?”
Yet Xia Yao was far beyond caring about pyjamas. Propped on her hands against the bed, she stretched both little feet toward Zhong Yingxue.
╭(๐・᷄﹏・᷅๐)╮
╭∩╮╭∩╮
“Xuexue, look! What is this! My toes are actually giving the middle finger!”
Zhong Yingxue: (ಡಗಡ) Ngh, pfft hahahaha! How did this happen? Your toes can even do that?
“Haha! So cute!”
Xia Yao’s face exploded red. “Hey! Stop laughing. How did I wake up like this?”
Only now did Xia Yao notice golden rings on both toes, each engraved with “MB”.
Zhong Yingxue laughed so hard her shoulders shook. “Xiao Nan’s doing, right? He must have come to our rooms last night.”
Xia Yao ground her tiger teeth.
No one else but Xiao Nan. Only he had those rings.
Wait…
Xiao Nan sneaked into my room last night to put rings on my toes?
Then…
Xia Yao instinctively glanced down at herself. Her face turned into a big apple. A plume of white smoke rose from her head.
“Xiao Nan! I’ll fight you!”
Dressed now, Xia Yao supported herself with both hands and descended the stairs in an inhuman, bizarre posture, charging into Jiang Nan’s room.
Jiang Nan, hugging Little Dimple, was sleeping sweetly.
Xia Yao launched a ferocious wolf pounce and straddled him.
Jiang Nan, still dreaming, was jolted awake by her weight. His soul nearly left his body.
Jiang Nan: (›꒪ͦロ꒪ͦ‹) Gahk~
Xia Yao thrust her little feet right in front of his face.
“Xiao Nan! Look what you did!”
Jiang Nan opened his eyes. “Pfft, ngh!!!”
[Resentment value from Xia Yao +555!]
[From Xia Yao…]
“You’re laughing! Still laughing! Forcing the impossible! This girl is fighting you today!”
Xia Yao flipped over and locked him in a triangle choke. Her long legs pinned him solidly.
Yet those two upright golden toes were far too distracting.
“Cough, cough cough! Big Wolf Mie, listen to my explanation. Last night in your room, I saw your feet and couldn’t resist. Pfft hahahaha!”
Xia Yao: (๐˃̶皿˂̶๐)
“You deserve to die! You went to my room just to put rings on my toes? Not doing anything proper!”
There were… far worse things he could have done!
Such a perfect opportunity right there!
And he…
Jiang Nan: ???
Hey? Is that the point?
I did do proper things!
I hid loads of ceiling panels under your bed!
Xia Yao didn’t tighten the hold too much. Puffing her cheeks, she sat on the bed.
“Now I can’t even walk! I have a trip today. What do we do?”
Jiang Nan struggled not to laugh. “One milk sweet enough?”
Xia Yao tilted her little head. “Not eating. No bribing me!”
Jiang Nan was stunned. Not even milk sweets? Had she grown that beautiful?
“Then what do you want? Big brother will grant any wish!”
After all, he started it. He had to indulge her.
Xia Yao: (乛̫乛๐) Hooked. Haha!
“I can’t walk, so I need to ride on your neck!”
Haha. During fusion he always tied her with rope and swung her around in the air. Never got to ride his neck!
Today she would get her fix!
Jiang Nan paused. Just that?
“Then I’ll grant that wish.”
Zhong Yingxue beside them wore an amused expression. “All right, time for class. Xiao Nan, get dressed quick!”
Xia Yao was putting on socks and shoes nearby. Pulling up the sock, the rigid middle toe poked straight through.
A hole appeared in the white sock. One golden toe stubbornly poked out.
Zhong Yingxue collapsed laughing on the bed. Jiang Nan nearly cracked a tooth.
Even Xia Yao herself burst out laughing.
Yet Jiang Nan wondered whether his Vigorous Diamond Finger could be used with toes.
That would become Vigorous Diamond Toe.
Surely quite domineering.
On the way to class, Xia Yao finally got her wish, riding on Jiang Nan’s neck, hands gripping his ears, face utterly content.
Little Dimple, displaced by Xia Yao, squatted on Jiang Nan’s head instead.
The moment they reached class, Tao Xinyi had everyone open the teaching system.
“Yesterday’s ranking tournament was excellent, everyone. This term we’ve inherited Class One’s name. I hope you all keep it up!”
“For the next half month, the top hundred in rankings will visit spiritual martial universities across provinces for a half-month teaching assignment!”
“Those staying behind will use that time for hellish special training in the toy house, raising yourselves as fast as possible to close the gap!”
At these words, everyone’s gazes fell on Jiang Nan.
Wait for us, please. Otherwise we really won’t catch up!
Yet Jiang Nan paid no attention. He was secretly checking the trackers.
The trackers showed Gu Xiaowei had left Rongcheng early that morning, heading to Kyoto.
She was already in Kyoto city district. The two signals had not separated.
Meaning Gu Xiaowei had not yet handed the goods to the Dandelion boss.
“Kyoto, hm? Interesting. Hehe. As long as it’s not abroad.”
Tao Xinyi smiled. “Teaching assignments from various institutes have come down, with clear rewards listed!”
“Our class top hundred can choose whichever you fancy.”
Everyone hurriedly opened the teaching task list. Key institutes in all thirty-three provinces offered extremely generous rewards.
The richer the reward, the more it attracted top-ranked students to teach.
Xia Yao excited. “Xiao Nan! Which one?”
Zhong Yingxue: “Together, together!”
Jiang Nan scrolled and scrolled. His gaze finally locked on Kyoto Spiritual University.
Task reward: 5 diamond-grade spirit beads! 50 platinum-grade spirit beads! 30 jin of blazing flame iron ore! 10 top-tier mandarin duck hotpot 24-hour tickets!
Jiang Nan perfectly demonstrated a face full of question marks.
(ˀ̣ˀ̣・᷄ࡇ・᷅)
The rest was fine!
But what the heck were mandarin duck hotpot tickets?
Kyoto Spiritual University dean, are you serious? Putting hotpot tickets in the reward?
Really nothing else to give?
Yet the other students went wild.
“Heavens! Diamond-grade spirit beads! I’ve never seen one in my life!”
“Hiss, spiritual materials. So many! Hahaha! Worth fighting into the top hundred. I’ve struck it rich!”
“This reward is too generous. This much for fifteen days? I’ll teach them to death!”
Jiang Nan speechless.
“Are you lot serious? Just this little bit? Far too little!”
Five diamond-grade spirit beads?
In the metropolis I casually scammed thirty!
Spiritual materials came by the crate! What’s this? Fobbing people off with hotpot tickets!
Jiang Nan’s expectations plummeted to nothing.
The others stared at him as if seeing a ghost. He thinks this is little?
Those are diamond-grade spirit beads!
Yet they had no idea Jiang Nan’s alternate space held enough diamond-grade spirit beads to play gomoku…
Mainly his mindset hadn’t shifted yet.
That metropolis deal was on what level? A whole group of Star Shine diamond-grade big shots in their underwear, forces from every country piling in!
For a single teaching task, this reward was already very high.
Jiang Nan stroked his chin. “Then Kyoto Spiritual University it is! Even a mosquito leg is meat.”
Qin Shou blank-faced.
You call this a mosquito leg? This is a dinosaur leg!
Actually Magic Capital Spiritual University’s reward was pretty high too, but Jiang Nan chose Kyoto mainly for the Dandelion affair.
Teaching reward was small change. Dandelion’s little treasury was the real prize.
Plus Xiaomi La was at Kyoto’s spiritual martial research institute. He could bring the little girl back this time.
So long without seeing her, Jiang Nan missed the kid terribly.
Xia Yao quickly raised her hand. “Our Jiang Nan squad all go to Kyoto Spiritual University!”
Tao Xinyi smiled. “You five? Not too many! Fine! Kyoto Spiritual University is high level. Jiang Nan going will hold the fort for our Pioneer Academy!”
“Then you can set off. The dean specially instructed, no need to return early. Staying longer to guide students is fine too!”
The students snickered. Dean Xiao was truly terrified of South God now.
Jiang Nan couldn’t wait to leave. If the training hall incident blew up, it would be trouble!
He’d be gone. Perfect alibi.
Morning, 8 o’clock!
Top 100 ranking students stood at the gate, geared up for teaching tasks. Originally a happy occasion!
Yet now every face was dark.
Little Yellow Men volunteer jumpsuits and caps were forced on again. No wearing, no going!
Even Little Dimple’s blushed cheeks had volunteer plastic stickers.
One character per side!
(义`~´工)
Perfectly demonstrating true madness!
Only Xia Yao riding Jiang Nan’s neck beamed happily.
At that moment, Ye Xinghe sidled over grinning. “South God! My sister’s at Kyoto Spiritual University. She made the training class this time. Look after her a bit, yeah!”
Jiang Nan surprised. “Your sister? Who?”
Ye Xinghe smiled. “Sister Xingxuan. You should have met her when she picked up Ye Ye from your house!”
Jiang Nan vaguely remembered. “Your sister’s at Kyoto Spiritual University. Why aren’t you going?”
Ye Xinghe shuddered. “Me, her little brother, leading the training class as instructor? She’d break my legs!”
Jiang Nan: “(՞ټ՞) I’ll definitely look! After! Your sister. Rest assured!”
Ye Xinghe: ???
Hey, hey, hey! That’s not what I meant!
You’ve misunderstood something, haven’t you?
Just then, Guan Hu said, “The coach has arrived. Everyone to Rongcheng airport, then flights to each province. We…”
Jiang Nan: “Little Dimple! Supersonic airliner mode!”
Little Dimple: (义gt;lt;工)
“Got it, Master~”
Her body instantly grew to twenty-five metres.
Jiang Nan teleported, bringing Xia Yao and the other three onto Little Dimple’s back, building a cockpit with space barriers.
“Sky Walk!”
“Boom!”
A sonic boom on the spot. Wild wind swept through, blowing off many caps!
Amid everyone’s shocked cries, they smashed through the clouds. A second sonic boom rang out!
“Boom!”
In a flash, gone!
Leaving only the stunned crowd behind…
Did you hear that “whoosh”?
South God is showing off again!
