Chapter 164: Successful Heist!

  In the rear mountain of Holy Soul Academy, there were ten gigantic murals carved on a high cliff. What was recorded on them were all the great achievements made by the predecessors of Holy Soul Academy.

  For example, the third-generation president of Shenghun single-handedly slaughtered a dragon? For example, four black-robed souls of Shenghun joined forces to defeat the Dark Soul Saint? For example, the seventh-generation president of Shenghun sacrificed his soul to seal the ancient divine beast...

  Each mural is so magnificent...so grandiose...it makes one involuntarily feel a sense of reverence...except for the last one.

  On the mural known as God's Remembrance, a fat master occupied nearly two-thirds of the screen. On his left was a powdered youth holding a roasted chicken in each hand. Atop his head sat a delicate and charming little girl. And on his right side, the infamous Moon King of later generations sat with a satisfied expression, hugging a plump and oily roast suckling pig, with a hint of a lewd smile at the corner of his mouth...

  Innumerable souls have come to the Holy Soul Academy, just to catch a glimpse of this last mural. The senior brothers and sisters of the Holy Soul Academy will proudly tell them that the scene depicted in this mural is so friendly, the great King Youyue and his two close friends are so kind to the people.

  Obviously, the four main characters in this painting of the future famous You Yao Yue are not as enlightened as people think they would be. At least, the unnatural smile on Fat Master's face can explain some questions...

  "Alright? Fat Master?? This Magic Core Ball will be left to us as a memento?? If you also want this photo?? I'll send one over another day??". Helian Luo turned around and threw the milk pig back onto the counter?? Zhide was full of joy and put away the Magic Soul Pearl?? Lanyou Rou also jumped down from Fat Master's head?? At the same time?? The water blue magic array that had been binding Fat Master finally slowly disappeared.

  "You three little rabbits, quickly hand over that soul pearl to me!" As soon as he felt his body regain its freedom, Fat Master didn't say another word and stretched out his hand to grab Helian's collar, effortlessly lifting him up. It was clear that if Helian refused, the consequences would be extremely dire.

  "Want the Soul Pearl? Go find it yourself! As long as you can find it, it's yours!" Helianuo's feet left the ground and he crossed his arms over his chest. He didn't take Fat Master's words to heart. The Magic Soul Pearl had already been placed in the Heavenly Gift Space. No matter how capable this fat guy was, he wouldn't be able to find it. After that, it would be Helianuo's turn to set the price.

  "Hmph! As long as this Soul Pearl is on you, it's impossible to escape my detection!" Fat Master closed his eyes and started searching carefully around Helianuo with his Soul Power. However, the result shocked him greatly. Normally, any object activated by Soul Power would definitely emit some sort of Soul Power fluctuations. But after Fat Master searched for a while, he found that except for a small dagger on the little kid's body, there was no other object emitting even the slightest fluctuation.

  "What's going on? Could it be that you little scoundrel... still have spatial items?" Fat Master scanned him with a surprised gaze, but found that Helianuo's fingers and neck were completely empty. Not to mention rings and necklaces, there wasn't even a piece of cloth.

  "Senior, I advise you not to waste your energy anymore. Since I dared to let you search, naturally I have my ways to make you unable to find it. Don't challenge my patience, okay? I believe you don't want me to make this photo public either?" He Lianuo hummed lightly, and suddenly a virtual shadow appeared beside the fat master. The picture on it was exactly the group photo of the four people just now.

  "You...??" The fat master's face turned bright red with anger, suppressing the flames in his heart. He heavily put Hecleon on the ground, no matter what. As a red robe in Shengyuan Academy, he could be considered a figure with some prestige. If Hecleon really made that photo public... then his reputation in Shengyuan would be completely ruined.

  A red-robed soul master was actually subdued by three green-robed vegetable birds and left at their mercy? Not to mention others, even Fat Master himself found this utterly unbearable. Originally, as a red-robed master who didn't go out on missions but instead stayed in the kitchen all day, he was already somewhat looked down upon. If others were to find out that he couldn't even protect his own kitchen, his reputation would be ruined.

  "Speak up! How are you going to hand over the Soul Pearl to me?" The fat master's chubby face kept twitching, seemingly suppressing his anger. Although he had made a great effort to make his tone sound gentle, the smell of gunpowder was still extremely strong.

  "Don't be so serious, brother! We're all classmates, aren't we? Originally, we should have shared the blessings together. But look at it now... You're enjoying big fish and meat every day, while we poor birds are left with this... Look at this steamed bun! This radish! Is this something for humans to eat?! " Helianuo picked up a black steamed bun and slammed it heavily onto the ground. The bun collided with the ground, making a dull thud, and then bounced back intact.

  "I didn't want it to be like this either... but these are the rules of the Holy Soul... This is all you green robes can enjoy, just these mantou and radishes? Not just me, you can go look elsewhere... In the dozens of large and small canteens in the academy that provide meals for new students, they're all this kind of stuff..." Fat Master spread his hands helplessly, indicating he couldn't do anything about it either.

  "Rules are rules, but someone made them, so someone has to break them. The three of us don't care about others. From now on, don't think about making us eat this stuff that even dogs won't touch. Fat brother, what you eat, we'll eat too." He Lian's smile was faint, and the shadowy figure that had been painted in the background reappeared in front of Fat Master.

  "Alright, alright! Hurry up and put this thing away! I'm afraid of you guys, okay?! From now on, every time it's mealtime, you can go to my kitchen and I'll secretly make some delicious food for the three of you, deal?! Master Pang cried with a sad face and finally agreed to Helianuo's request. Although they had only been in contact for a short time, he could feel that if he refused the other party's request, then the other party would definitely spread that photo to every corner of Shenghun Academy..."

  "Haha, this is what a senior brother should be like! Don't worry, we absolutely won't let anyone else know about this matter. As long as you can keep your promise, that photo will never be seen by a fifth person!" He Lianuo patted his own chest with a flourish and loudly made the promise.

  "Alas... sunk in a ditch... I've been scheming against others all day, but didn't expect to be outsmarted by three kids who haven't even grown their hair yet... Alas..." Fat Master sighed and looked on as Helian Nuo and the others continued to sweep away the food from the counter, his expression so dejected that it made Helian Nuo feel sympathetic.

  But sympathy is just sympathy, what's the point of calculating? Is it worth calculating or not?

  After a long time, Helian and the three others finally held their stomachs and shouted that they were full. Master Huang let out a sigh of relief and personally packed up the remaining food to give to Mo Fei Bai. With a smile, he sent them off at the door.

  But Helian's words... instantly pulled his mood back down to rock bottom...

  "Fat master?? Your craftsmanship is really good?? Well prepared?? In the future, we'll solve our three meals a day here?? Haha??"

  Three small figures held their bellies and walked away with long strides... A big fat figure stood lonely under the sunset... For a long time... For a long time...

  After returning to their residence, Helian and Mo Fei climbed into the small wooden shed, snuggled up in their luggage, and fell fast asleep. Lan You Ruo, on the other hand, carefully picked up a watering can and watered the two narcissus plants, admiring them for a long time before locking the doors and windows to sleep.

  In the spacious courtyard of Holy Soul Academy, dozens of freshmen settled in different corners. A few powerful and lucky souls successfully seized the residences of seniors and moved in comfortably. On the other hand, some unlucky souls with insufficient strength lost their own wooden houses and could only find a small corner to rest. Of course, the majority of people, like Hekuren and his two companions, lived in the small wooden houses arranged by the school. The difference was that some were starving, while others ate half-full, whereas Hekuren and his friends were stuffed with delicious food to the point of discomfort...

  In the central building of Holy Soul Academy, dozens of soul cultivators in white robes stood neatly. In front of them, a middle-aged man with a leisurely expression was lounging on a chair, and his clothes were... black.

  "What's the situation with this year's newcomers? Have you all figured it out?" After a long while, the black-robed man slowly opened his eyes. His lazy voice gave people a kind of inexplicable sense of familiarity.

  "I was in charge of monitoring those two guts, and they didn't disappoint. They entered the small courtyard and went to challenge a blue-robed disciple. The result was that they were defeated with one move. Afterwards, they were robbed of their residence by several green-robed newcomers. Now... they are camping out in an abandoned cave." A white-robed soul cultivator smiled slightly and spoke up first.

  "The two I was watching were luckier. They picked a weak yellow-robed one, easily occupied his residence, and even snatched his food. Now they're leisurely drinking tea there."

  The remaining dozens of people reported the situation of their tracking targets one by one. When it was the last soul's turn, his expression was a bit strange. Under the urging of the black-robed man, he finally opened his mouth: "The three little ghosts I followed... were very interesting. They first went to challenge the old birth, but unfortunately encountered the invincible first person in the red robe. If it weren't for a yellow-robed disciple suddenly appearing to rescue them, those three people would have almost lost their lives. However, after that, these three little guys actually... subdued the fat man of the seventh cafeteria and looted all the food there."

  "Huh? As far as I know, that fatty's cultivation may not be as good as Invincible, but it's not much worse either. Three mere Green Robes, how could they possibly subdue him?" The black-robed man widened his eyes, and a hint of interest finally appeared on his face.

  "I also think this is very interesting, so I specially used the magic soul pearl to record it. Everyone please take a look." The white-robed soul master let out a pleased laugh and took out a transparent crystal ball from his sleeve, lightly injecting a thread of soul power into it.

  A moment later... that photo which would be widely circulated in later generations... appeared for the first time in front of people other than those involved...
