The light humming of "Let the weak understand cruelty, face each cold of life with ruthlessness..." echoed through the student dormitory, creating a rather strange atmosphere.

Lu Mang felt that Rong Taotao had gone mad. Ever since Rong Taotao returned to the dormitory, he had lain on his side on the bed, facing the wall, and kept singing this song.

It wasn't exactly ear-splitting; the kid actually had a pretty good voice.

The problem was... good as it was, he had been singing it all morning!

Are you on a single loop with me!?

Lu Mang stood by the window, trying hard to absorb the ice and snow elemental soul power. Finally, he couldn't help but turn around and look at Rong Taotao, who was lying on his side facing the wall, and said, "Who is that woman?"

Yes, when Rong Taotao returned in the morning, he didn't come back by himself, and he didn't walk into the dormitory either.

He was carried back by Si Huannian, just like a pig.

After Si Huannian threw Rong Taotao onto the upper bunk, he left without a word, leaving behind a Rong Taotao who was on a single loop...

Since Rong Taotao confirmed that Si Huannian wasn't wearing long johns, Si Huannian was stunned for three seconds, then suddenly raised his knee!

This knee strike directly turned Rong Taotao into a "shrimp."

However, the bent shrimp was just the right size to carry, like a scarf wrapped around the neck, making it easier for Si Huannian.

Lu Mang spoke again, "Rong Taotao."

"Ah..." Finally, Rong Taotao responded, still not fully recovered from the morning's pain, his voice sounding not very smart.

Lu Mang: "Who was the woman who carried you back this morning? She looked very impressive."

Rong Taotao: "Si Huannian, one of the four rites of Songhun, known as 'Sugar,' AKA Songhun Forget-me-not."

Lu Mang: "......"

What kind of nonsense is this?

The very wise Lu Mang didn't ask any more questions but took out his phone and searched for "the four rites of Songhun."

As he read, Lu Mang's expression changed slightly.

Songjiang Soul Martial University, abbreviated as Songhun University.

The "four rites of Songhun" represent four extremely powerful teachers.

Among the "tobacco, alcohol, sugar, and tea," Teacher Si Huannian is the "sugar."

It's not that Si Huannian has any special quirks, but she has to carry candy with her because she has a severe case of hypoglycemia...

A teacher with such great strength suffering from hypoglycemia, well... it's hard to imagine.

Si Huannian's hypoglycemia has accompanied her for many years, and modern medical methods have not been able to completely cure it.

Not only modern medicine, but even some soul techniques for conditioning have not been able to solve Si Huannian's condition.

Si Huannian, who teaches at Songjiang Soul Martial University, has a professional soul martial nutritionist, but she still hasn't recovered.

People with hypoglycemia shouldn't engage in a lot of physical activity, and severe cases can lead to confusion, muscle spasms, and even unconsciousness.

But as a soul martial practitioner and a teacher, Si Huannian still engages in a lot of physical activity and training every day.

Many people suspect that Si Huannian doesn't really have "hypoglycemia," given her special status and situation, so she might have another condition that just manifests as hypoglycemia.

But no matter what, Si Huannian always carries candy, so the nickname "Sugar" has stuck.

Lu Mang carefully read the uncertain information on the internet and said quietly, "The four rites of Songhun, above the soul school."

Rong Taotao finally turned over, and the knee strike to his stomach reminded him of his devilish master, who was much better than a slap on the butt.

Hmm...

Rong Taotao propped himself up with his elbow, his head hanging off the bed, and looked at the stick-thin Lu Mang by the window, saying, "Soul school?"

Lu Mang, still looking at the information, nodded silently.

Rong Taotao was stunned and said, "Soul school!? The person I fought this morning was a soul school!?"

This time, it was Lu Mang's turn to be stunned. He looked at Rong Taotao with disbelief and said, "You fought with Si Huannian this morning?"

Rong Taotao: "Ah..."

Lu Mang: "???"

Then how are you still alive?

Of course, Lu Mang asked this in his mind.

Subconsciously, he asked, but after a moment's thought, he realized that Si Huannian must have held back.

No, "holding back" isn't enough to describe this battle; it should be called "letting the sea go."

Rong Taotao extended his finger and muttered, "Let me count, I'm a soul soldier, um...

Soul soldier, soul scholar, soul officer, junior soul school, middle soul school, senior soul school, grand soul school, soul general..."

In this world, there were originally five levels of strength: 1. Soul soldier, 2. Soul scholar, 3. Soul officer, 4. Soul school, 5. Soul general.

In the past, when people saw soul martial practitioners reach a certain standard, they classified them as soul schools.

But later, people found that the gap between soul schools was too large.

With the development of the times and the deepening understanding of soul martial practitioners, the "soul school" level was eventually split into four sub-levels: junior soul school, middle soul school, senior soul school, and grand soul school.

If the four rites of Songhun are "soul schools," then Si Huannian is at least a junior soul school!

My goodness, that's incredible!

What level is a "soul general"?

That's the pinnacle of soul martial practitioners!

To put it simply... that's Xu Fenghua's level!

In the entire Chinese population of over a billion, soul generals are as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns. They are true "human weapons" that are not used lightly.

Such people are rare, and most people will never see a soul general in their lifetime.

They only appear in legendary myths or textbooks, each one capable of opening up the heavens and earth.

Therefore, in the conventional range of the soul martial world, the face of each country is supported by "soul schools."

Rong Taotao counted his fingers, humbly listing his weaknesses.

He was at least three major levels behind Si Huannian, and possibly six major levels!

Rong Taotao's Adam's apple moved. Si Huannian is a soul school?

As a pillar of the Chinese military, the mainstream level is the second level, soul scholar, to the third level, soul officer.

Officers or elite troops can reach the third level, soul officer, on average.

If you really want to find a soul school, you'd probably have to go to the Chinese special forces, and their rank and position would certainly be high.

And today, Rong Taotao actually encountered a fourth-level soul school?

To say that he was fortunate in this life is not an exaggeration!

The teachers of Songjiang Soul Martial University are so powerful, no wonder it's the top university in China...

What was your most glorious moment?

And I, it was this morning!

I lasted at least two rounds against a soul school!

Okay, I have to admit that Teacher Si held back, and she probably gave Rong Taotao two rounds for free. If she had used more force, Rong Taotao would have had no chance to resist.

For example, the way Si Huannian ended the battle, Rong Taotao didn't even react before she picked him up.

By the way, before the battle, she said that if I passed the test, I might become her student?

Awesome!

Coming to the Songjiang Soul Martial Youth Class was definitely the right choice.

Such a terrifying soul school-level teacher personally teaching, what kind of faculty is this? How can those key high schools compare?

Rong Taotao quickly took out his phone, opened WeChat, and clicked on Yang Chunxi's chat window: "Sister-in-law, can you give me Si Huannian's WeChat?"

After a few minutes, the phone buzzed.

Rong Taotao quickly picked it up and saw Yang Chunxi's reply: "Do you know her?"

Rong Taotao's fingers tapped the screen: "Ah, I trained with her this morning, and she even gave me a piece of candy."

Yang Chunxi: "Hehe, little brat, you sure know how to run into people. I'll send you her WeChat.

By the way, it's Si Huannian, not Si Huannian. Get the name right, it's a sign of respect."

Rong Taotao: "Oh..."

Buzz... buzz...

Rong Taotao looked at the name, opened it, and added her.

But to his surprise, after waiting for almost an hour, the friend request was still unanswered, like a stone thrown into the sea.

Rong Taotao felt bitter, but he didn't say anything.

He threw his phone aside, sighed deeply, and softly hummed, "The love that is hard to let go, often has a connection~ but no destiny~"

In the dormitory, Lu Mang, who had put on a down jacket and was about to go out for lunch, stiffened.

Hearing the familiar single loop again, Lu Mang didn't even zip up his jacket and quickly left the dormitory...
