Perhaps geniuses have some flaws

Chapter 31 Perhaps geniuses have some flaws

Out of curiosity, Ning Shu paid more attention to them for a while.

Tang San noticed a gaze fixed on him, and he subconsciously looked up, only to meet Ning Shu's eyes.

Ning Shu tilted her head slightly, a hint of confusion in her eyes.

Tang San tilted his head in the opposite direction, also looking puzzled.

What is he/she looking at?

Yu Xiaogang noticed Tang San, and he looked over as well, tilting his head together.

What are they looking at?

Xiao Wu glanced at it.

Uh?

One against three.

Ning Shu blinked, thinking to herself, "Are they crazy?"

He then looked away and turned to walk towards the girls' dormitory.

"..."

The three of them also found it quite baffling.

Yu Xiaogang frowned and said, "This child has great talent, but his temperament is really terrible!"

poor?

Tang San nodded in agreement. "Ning Shu has a terrible personality. Boss Dai and Fatty both say she's someone who won't listen to reason. But teacher, perhaps geniuses have some flaws, who knows?"

"Yes, that's true." Yu Xiaogang didn't judge Ning Shu much. He said calmly, "Little San, remember not to act impulsively when you go to the Star Dou Great Forest this time. Do you still remember the theoretical knowledge I taught you before?"

Tang San nodded, "I remember, teacher. You said that a Soul Master's third Soul Ring cannot be older than 1760. This time when we go to obtain a Soul Ring, the highest choice is only 1760. I remember this very clearly."

"Hmm, not bad. It seems you still take what I said to heart." Yu Xiaogang patted Tang San on the shoulder and smiled with satisfaction.

With such a disciple, his life can be considered complete.

Xiao Wu wasn't really interested in participating in the conversation between Tang San and Yu Xiaogang. She tugged at Tang San's sleeve a little awkwardly and said softly, "Brother, I'm a bit tired today, so I'll go back to the dormitory first. I'll come to the blacksmith shop tonight to find you."

"Hmm? Xiao Wu, are you feeling unwell?" Tang San asked, looking at the person beside him with concern.

Xiao Wu shook her head, "No, brother, I'm just a little tired. I'll be fine after resting for a while."

"Alright then." Tang San reached out and ruffled Xiao Wu's hair, smiling indulgently. "I'll buy you some carrots tonight."

"Okay, thanks, bro!"

Xiao Wu nodded emphatically, and the two exchanged a few more intimate words like siblings before going their separate ways.

Even with the subsidies from the Spirit Hall, Tang San still felt that the money was not enough. So whenever he had free time, he would go to the blacksmith shop in Soto City to forge iron and earn some pocket money. Otherwise, it would be quite embarrassing if Xiao Wu wanted to buy something delicious but he couldn't afford it.

As the older brother, it's natural for him to pamper his younger sister.

Tang San thought to himself.

*

A few hours later, in the girls' dormitory.

Xiao Wu paced back and forth in front of Ning Shu's room for a while, hesitating as she mentally organized how to subtly ask Ning Shu a question. Just then, the door to another room opened—

"Xiao Wu?"

The speaker was Zhu Zhuqing.

She lives next door to Ning Shu, and she came out now to exercise.

"Bamboo, pure bamboo."

Xiao Wu greeted them somewhat awkwardly.

Zhu Zhuqing looked at her with a puzzled expression, but didn't say anything.

She was aloof and never liked to meddle in other people's business, but considering that Ning Shu had just had a conflict with Tang San, and that Xiao Wu cared deeply about Tang San...

"Don't mess with her, she's very strong."

This is Zhu Zhuqing's advice to Xiao Wu.

Xiao Wu looked at her and opened her mouth.

Zhu Zhuqing remained silent for a while, seemingly wanting to say something but also not wanting to say anything. Her hesitant demeanor made Xiao Wu feel somewhat strange.

In the end, she didn't say anything, just shook her head and left.

Xiao Wu frowned, naturally not understanding why Zhu Zhuqing had that expression. Watching Zhu Zhuqing's departing figure, she pouted and muttered, "What does that mean?"

"..."

In the girls' dormitory, only Xiao Wu and Ning Shu remained.

Shrek Academy is not without its advantages; it offers more free time than other academies.

In the room, Ning Shu lay on the bed.

She stared at the ceiling, already planning where to go in three days.

However, time was limited, and she couldn't go too far.

The Starry Sky Forest is located in the southeast of the Kingdom of Barak, with a small part bordering the Kingdom of Barak. Soto City itself is also in the southeast of the Kingdom of Barak, not far from the Starry Sky Forest, less than 500 kilometers away.

Five hundred kilometers is actually only a day or two for a Soul Master with sufficient Soul Power.

The round trip will take at most four or five days, and with the search for the soul beast, it will take at most a week.

"Tsk, five to seven days, where should we go for fun?"

Ning Shu searched her mind for places to visit nearby. The closest one was Soto City, followed by some surrounding towns near the Star Dou Great Forest.

Ning Shu had never been to those places before, so she could take this opportunity to travel around properly.

"I wonder where that Xie Yue guy is."

Ning Shu muttered to herself, "I should have left him my contact information. At least I could ask him to hang out when I'm bored."

However, Guangling is also a member of the Spirit Hall, so he should know about Xieyue, right?

Why not just have him bring the person out then?

Thinking of this, Ning Shu felt a surge of joy.

If she could, she would want to have a harem, taking in all the handsome men from the Spirit Hall, rotating them every three days, so that she could have a different one every day for a month. It would be a paradise for girls!

She suddenly understood why male-oriented novels often feature multiple female protagonists in a harem.

Who wouldn't be tempted by that?

"Knock knock knock".

Just then, a knock on the door interrupted Ning Shu's thoughts.

Ning Shu got up and sat on the bed. "Who is it?"

She frowned, somewhat impatient.

To bother her at this time shows a complete lack of tact.

"It's me, Xiao Wu."

News came from outside.

Ning Shu was taken aback.

Xiao Wu?

What is she doing here?

To get revenge for Tang San?

That can't be right.

Ning Shu got out of bed, put on her shoes, and went to open the door.

What are you doing here?

She asked.

"I... I have something I want to tell you." When Xiao Wu met Ning Shu's gaze, her eyes were noticeably unfocused. She lowered her head, clenched her right fist, and placed it on her chest, looking somewhat conflicted about what she wanted to say.

Ning Shu looked at her. "What is it?"

Why didn't you go with your pure and innocent third brother? What are you doing here?

???

Xiao Wu was slightly taken aback. She blinked and suddenly looked up at Ning Shu.

She heard it, she heard it, she heard Ning Shu's innermost thoughts again!

Xiao Wu clenched her fists again, and mustered her courage to say, "I... I wanted to ask you, why did you..."

[Hey, little bunny, you don't know yet, do you? The Dean and the others plan to meet up directly with Oscar and Ning Rongrong. Ning Rongrong is the little princess of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, and she'll definitely be accompanied by a Title Douluo. If you go to the Star Dou Great Forest this time, you're in for a good show!]

[It's a bit of a pity, though, that I'm not going with you guys this time. Otherwise, seeing Tang San's dad desperately trying to get back at him would be quite a sight.]

"?!"
