At that moment, Su Ming seemed to know what Bibi Dong was thinking, and he wrote down the boundaries of close kinship.
[So, "those kinds of relationships" should definitely avoid marriage. Of course, if you don't want offspring, then just ignore this.]
[As for what counts as "those kinds of relationships," I remember it's something like direct blood relatives and collateral relatives within three generations. Outside of that, the chances of their offspring having issues are much lower!]
Bibi Dong's eyes lit up as she saw Su Ming spell it out, and she quietly memorized the guidelines on close kinship.
Then, the female protagonists saw that the diary hadn't updated in a while. By now, Su Ming was already on his way to find Xiao Wu.
When Su Ming arrived, he saw that Tang San and everyone in Dorm Seven were there, and across from them was Xiao Chenyu and his group.
Su Ming immediately remembered: today was the day of the conflict between Dorm Seven and Xiao Chenyu's group. It wasn't a big deal, just a minor issue.
Xiao Wu noticed Su Ming approaching and happily waved, "Su Ming-ge, over here! Come on!"
Tang San, standing nearby and watching, couldn't help but feel uncomfortable hearing Xiao Wu call Su Ming "ge" (big brother). For some reason, it felt like something important was slipping away from him. But now wasn't the time to dwell on it; he needed to finish the battle in front of him first.
At that moment, Wang Sheng had just finished his match against someone from the other side. Xiao Chenyu stepped forward arrogantly and said, "Who's next? Let's settle this once and for all!"
"I am Xiao Chenyu. Martial spirit: wolf, rank 11, one-ring battle spirit master!"
Tang San knew that Su Ming and Xiao Wu hadn't obtained their spirit rings yet, so it was up to him to face Xiao Chenyu. Plus, he wanted to test out the power of his Blue Silver Grass's first spirit ability.
Stepping forward, Tang San declared, "Tang San. Martial spirit: Blue Silver Grass, rank 11, one-ring tool spirit master!"
Suddenly, a yellow hundred-year spirit ring emerged from beneath Tang San, shocking Xiao Chenyu and everyone present!
Xiao Chenyu hesitated. Blue Silver Grass was supposed to be a trash martial spirit, but Tang San's first spirit ring was a hundred-year spirit ring. And the soul tool on his waist looked quite advanced. Who was this guy, really? He couldn't just be a work-study student, right?
Xiao Chenyu couldn't help but ask, "Kid, are you really a work-study student?"
Tang San nodded, confused by the question.
Despite Tang San's confirmation, Xiao Chenyu still felt uneasy, but the match had to go on. After all, it was a fair fight, even if Tang San had some kind of background.
Deciding to go ahead with the match, Xiao Chenyu charged forward: "First spirit ability, Wolf Claw!"
Tang San didn't dodge. He met Xiao Chenyu's attack head-on, using the Tang Sect's martial technique, Mysterious Jade Hand!
Xiao Chenyu was already hesitant. Seeing Tang San boldly reach out to catch his Wolf Claw attack with bare hands, he instinctively reduced his strength. But when their blows connected, he was shocked to find Tang San's hand as hard as steel!
His Wolf Claw was ineffective, and Tang San seized the opportunity to throw Xiao Chenyu aside.
"First spirit ability, Blue Silver Entanglement!"
In an instant, thick Blue Silver Grass vines sprang up from beneath Xiao Chenyu's feet, wrapping around his legs before he had a chance to react.
Xiao Chenyu struggled but found it futile. His legs were slowly going numb—this Blue Silver Grass was poisonous!
With no other choice, Xiao Chenyu admitted defeat: "I surrender!"
Tang San withdrew the Blue Silver Grass. "The paralysis poison will wear off in a little while."
Xiao Chenyu acknowledged his loss, "We lost this time. I accept you as the leader."
Tang San shook his head. "Actually, I'm not the strongest in our dorm. He is."
Tang San pointed at Su Ming, who had been watching from the side.
Su Ming was baffled. What was Tang San up to?
He quickly responded, "Tang San, my spirit power is only at rank 8. I haven't even obtained my first spirit ring yet. Right now, you're the strongest in Dorm Seven. Why say I'm stronger?"
Tang San replied, "Just a feeling."
Su Ming: ...
Tang San didn't believe his own paralysis poison would affect Su Ming much. Su Ming's physique was far superior to his.
Xiao Chenyu couldn't help but ask, "Tang San, are you sure? He just said his spirit power is only rank 8. How could he be stronger than you?"
At this moment, Xiao Wu stepped forward. "Tang San, how about you and I have a sparring match? You seem pretty strong now, and we haven't fought before, have we?"
"If Su Ming-ge doesn't want to be the leader, then let me, Xiao Wu, step up!"
Su Ming was shocked. Xiao Wu actually wanted to fight Tang San? In the original story, the reason Tang San lost to Xiao Wu was because he didn't know she used soft techniques.
But now, Tang San had seen Xiao Wu use those moves on him, so he'd be prepared. If they fought, Xiao Wu would definitely lose!
And Su Ming didn't want Xiao Wu using soft techniques on Tang San—it irritated him!
Su Ming spoke up, "Maybe it's better to let this go. Being the leader isn't really that important, and both you and Tang San are in the same dorm. There's no need for this."
Xiao Chenyu: What do you mean, it's not important? Don't I deserve some respect as the mayor's son?
Xiao Wu seemed to understand Su Ming's thoughts and reassured him, "Don't worry, we'll stop before things get too serious. I just want to test out my self-created spirit ability."
After practicing for the past few days and with the help of her entry-level skill card, Xiao Wu had already mastered the Wind God Leg technique. She had even integrated it with her Eight Stage Drop, increasing its power. Now, she was eager to test it out!
Seeing Xiao Wu's insistence, Tang San had no choice but to agree, "Alright, let's spar. We'll stop before anyone gets hurt."
Xiao Wu grinned, "No need to worry. I just want to test my self-created spirit ability. But I haven't tested its power yet, so Tang San, be ready!"
Tang San didn't take her warning seriously. He had learned several Tang Sect techniques, and although he was still in the beginner stages, there was no way a single spirit ability could defeat him. With his Mysterious Jade Hand, he felt confident in blocking Xiao Wu's attacks.
Soon, the crowd cleared a space for the duel.
Su Ming silently speculated about what technique Xiao Wu was planning to use. Was she about to unleash the Eight Stage Drop on Tang San? Tang San might not be able to handle it!
