Douluo Continent: A Sister Who Loves Me From the Start

"Really? They know too?" Shen Yumo pointed casually to the group of classmates gathered around. The classmates quickly looked away when they saw Shen Yumo's gaze, afraid that the blue-faced boy would come looking for them.

Xiao Xiao gave an awkward laugh. "⊙?⊙! Well, I guess so. Anyway, I heard it from others yesterday. I wasn't sure if the person they were talking about was you until Teacher Zhou called you over. I finally understood why. It turns out that person really is Brother Yu Mo..." As she spoke, a little fangirl's light appeared in Xiao Xiao's eyes.

Shen Yumo, who remained calm and composed, felt somewhat helpless upon hearing these words. People are afraid of becoming famous, just as pigs are afraid of getting fat. She had always preferred peace and quiet, but this incident had caused her to live an uneasy life from now on. She suspected that Zhou Yi had ulterior motives and didn't know why she had been summoned.

The boy's sharp gaze in his azure eyes and his exquisitely perfect features added to his peerless charm. Xiao Xiao noticed this and blushed slightly.

"Okay, I'll go find Teacher Zhou."

"Oh!" Xiao Xiao watched the blue-haired boy leave.

……

in the office.

Zhou Yi sat in the chair, her brows furrowed and her gaze unfocused.

The surrounding teachers laughed and said, "Teacher Zhou, your class's freshman named Shen Yumo is quite famous. Defeating a sixth-grade student is not something an ordinary person can do."

"you do not say."

The female teacher standing nearby added with a smile, "I heard that the sixth-grade student who was defeated was named Xu Sanshi. He was a strong student among the sixth-grade students, but he was defeated by a freshman in Teacher Zhou's class. Teacher Zhou, you really hit the jackpot!"

The female teacher teased him with a friendly expression.

Zhou Yi, slightly regaining her senses, let out a long sigh, a hint of coldness in her eyes, as if she hadn't heard her colleague's words, her mind filled with Yan Shaozhe's remarks.

She was also very curious. She was curious about Tai Long's situation last time. Tai Long was also an excellent Soul Master, but in the end, he was intimidated by Shen Yu Mo with just one look. This time, the target was a senior student.

This Shen Yumo is really something else...

Seeing that the office door was ajar, Shen Yumo pushed it open without thinking and went in. The teachers just glanced at him indifferently before lowering their heads to continue working.

Looking up, I saw Zhou Yi sitting there, looking deep in thought.

"Teacher Zhou, you wanted to see me?" The boy stood there calmly.

Zhou Yi sensed something was wrong, and before she could even look up, she heard the boy's cold voice.

“Oh! Right.” Zhou Yi straightened up. The boy did not show any unusual behavior. Even after defeating a senior student from Shrek Academy, he was not arrogant and remained calm and composed.

But I heard about something else yesterday.

"I heard you beat up a senior student yesterday?" Zhou Yi pretended to be stern, staring at him coldly, but to her disappointment, the boy remained calm throughout.

A flicker of emotion finally crossed her usually calm eyes, and she retorted, "Yeah, Teacher Zhou, didn't you say that fighting in your own class is no skill, but taking down other classes outside is? All I did was get a sixth-grade student." Shen Yumo said nonchalantly.

"This..." Zhou Yi frowned instantly upon hearing this. Really? Who cares? "So you're saying you're so great? You dared to interfere in a dispute between sixth-year students and even beat them down..."

Shen Yumo couldn't wait to interject, "Of course! I did this to help Huo Yuhao, not to fight him."

"Heh." Zhou Yi chuckled, her face crinkling with wrinkles. "Don't drag Huo Yuhao into this. Since you have the guts to provoke him, then defeat him completely! Can you do that?"

With so many people watching, a sixth-grade student was actually defeated by a first-grade student. It was incredibly humiliating. How could that person not feel any resentment, especially since it was Xu Sanshi?

Shen Yumo had considered this point. It was not just about saving face; the real issue was that one person could be responsible for the seriousness of the incident!

That person was Jiang Nannan. He guessed that Xu Sanshi would come back soon to challenge him to a duel on the Soul Arena. Of course, the duel would not be unfair. Lower-level challengers could accept the challenge and go up to the Soul Arena to fight.

Jiang Nannan has a lot on her plate. Even if Xu Sanshi doesn't come looking for trouble this time, he'll come looking for her sooner or later. Since she'll have to face him eventually, why not just take him down directly? That would save her a lot of trouble.

Now that Jiang Nannan has become his girlfriend, he will not allow anyone to covet or provoke her.

The boy's azure eyes held an undisguised, chilling killing intent.

The temperature in the entire office dropped, and many of the female teachers who were dressed lightly covered their arms, wondering about the temperature inside.

Zhou Yi also sensed the coldness in the boy's eyes. A clear, cold voice rang out, and Shen Yumo said, "So what if he's a senior student? If he cares about his reputation and wants to cause trouble, then I'll crush him. If he can't beat me, what's the point of talking about reputation and dignity?"

The boy spoke in a neutral tone, clearly stating his position.

Zhou Yi stared at him for a long time, then slowly said, "Since you can handle it, then handle it well. I'll say it again: those who dare not cause trouble are mediocre. You can leave now."

In fact, Zhou Yi had already guessed that the boy was so confident, but what was most surprising was that the boy was not like a young boy at all.

In terms of ability, intelligence, and behavior, he is nothing like an eleven or twelve-year-old boy. He is more like a seasoned veteran, calm and composed. I have never encountered a student like this before at this stage. It is very strange.

"Hehe, Teacher Zhou, Shen Yumo is very handsome and has excellent skills. She's a promising talent worth nurturing," the female teacher said with a smile.

“Yes.” Zhou Yi’s tense nerves slowly relaxed a bit. “It’s just that this child is a bit too mature. His strength and everything else are simply unmatched.”

"Haha, then you'll have to teach him properly, and wouldn't it be better if he were more mature?"

Zhou Yi narrowed her eyes. Yes, it's better to be more mature, but being too mature can lead to arrogance and conceit. Moreover, being mature too early is not necessarily a good thing.

……

Shen Yumo was completely unaware of all this; all she could think about was how to make Xu Sanshi give up on liking Jiang Nannan.

Chapter 55 Xu Sanshi Comes Looking for Trouble

Back in the classroom, Xu Sanshi had already come knocking on the door.

He was accompanied by two older students.

One side was arrogant and haughty, while the other was fierce and menacing.

"Where's that kid in your class named Shen Yumo? Call him out here right now!"

"I don't know... Shen Yumo was called away by the teacher, you guys..."

……

"I've arrived. I heard you were looking for me."

A cold voice suddenly rang out.

Xu Sanshi slowly turned his head, and the students who looked like his lackeys immediately surrounded him.

The boy stood there, his expression natural and unperturbed, though a few cold glints flashed in his icy eyes.

Xu Sanshi looked at him and recalled the kick from yesterday, which he felt was a disgrace.

"Kid, let's be straightforward. If you dare to accept my challenge..."

"Alright! I accept your challenge."

Before Xu Sanshi could finish speaking, the boy agreed without hesitation.

"Uh..." Xu Sanshi was a little dumbfounded. He thought the other party would find a reason to refuse, after all, he and Bei Bei had a very high reputation. It was even more straightforward than he had imagined.

The two henchmen beside him exchanged a glance and made a "heh heh" sound.

"Enough with the nonsense, let's go straight to the Soul Arena. It's not shameful to be defeated by me." The blue-haired boy's lips curled slightly upward. Since you're not convinced, I'll beat you until you are.

"Alright!" Xu Sanshi clapped his hands, and a hint of admiration appeared in his eyes as he looked at the boy. "Of course we have to compete, but I have a condition. It's not just the shame of defeating me, but also Nan Nan. Whoever loses will automatically withdraw and stay far away from her!" As he spoke, he looked at the boy with a determined gaze.

He had considered the consequences before making this decision. He knew that this young man was not weak, and might even be stronger than him! However, he believed in his own strength. Just thinking of Jiang Nannan filled him with fighting spirit. He would fight for Nannan!

As he thought about it, his dark eyes deepened.

Shen Yumo looked at him, her eyes still deep and still.

There's nothing wrong with loving someone, but if the other person doesn't love you back, even if you die to prove your love, it won't make a difference. In the original story, the complicated relationship only arose because Jiang Nannan became his sacrifice, but this time it's different; everything is fine.

He sighed inwardly. He had loved the wrong person after all. What was the point? It was completely unnecessary. With the Xuanming Sect behind him, what woman couldn't he have in the future? Yet he had fallen for Jiang Nannan.

"Okay, we'll do it your way! Whoever loses has to stay far away from Jiang Nannan," Shen Yumo said calmly.

The two henchmen quickly followed when they saw the situation; the tension was palpable.

A group of students who had been watching the spectacle also came out, and the group headed towards the arena.

……

"Teacher Zhou! Something terrible has happened!"

Zhou Yi's face darkened. "What is it?"

Huo Yuhao swallowed hard and said nervously, "The senior student who was injured by Shen Yumo yesterday came looking for him."

"What?" Zhou Yi immediately stood up. "Where are they now?"

"They've probably arrived at the Soul Arena by now!" Huo Yuhao himself never expected things to turn out this way. He also bears a great deal of responsibility for this. If Shen Yumo were injured by the other party, he would definitely blame himself!

"This is ridiculous!" Zhou Yi's face showed a hint of panic. After all, the other party was a senior student who had been trained by the academy and could even defeat a thousand-year-old soul beast in a one-on-one fight. Shen Yumo was just a freshman who had just entered the academy. How could she be stronger than an experienced person? Her combat experience was definitely not as rich as the other party's!

Besides, no matter what, Shen Yumo is her student, and it wouldn't look good if she were injured by the other party.

"Teacher Zhou, please go and stop them!" Huo Yuhao said, taking the lead and standing at the door, looking anxious.

"Alright, go find Yan Shaozhe, the head of the Martial Soul Department, and tell him to come to the Soul Arena right away!" After saying that, Zhou Yi hurriedly left.

"Oh, oh!" Huo Yuhao responded blankly. Did this matter really need to alarm the head of the Martial Soul Department? Wasn't that making a fuss over nothing?

It's normal for Brother Shen to get injured if he can't beat his opponent, but it certainly won't be life-threatening. There are referees on the fighting stage!

……

The Soul Battle Zone is a very important area within Shrek Academy, located in the northwest corner of the Spirit System, near Shrek City, and not far from the Soul Tool Experiment Zone where Huo Yuhao once visited. It's a place frequently visited by many senior students. Various competitions can be held here, with dedicated teachers acting as referees, responsible for determining winners and losers, protecting students, providing aid and treatment, and so on. Of course, all of this comes at a cost.

To participate in a Soul Fighting match, both sides must pay at least ten Gold Soul Coins as venue fees, yet many students still enjoy it immensely. This is because there are no restrictions on fighting here, and there's no need to worry about excessive force leading to danger, as the instructors acting as referees will carefully control the intensity. Furthermore, winning matches in the Soul Fighting area will earn certain academic credits, which will provide bonus points during grade-level exams.

After the fourth year, Battle Spirit Credits are required for advancement. For example, to advance from fourth to fifth year, one needs at least ten victories against opponents of the same grade in the Battle Spirit Zone. Advancing from fifth to sixth year requires even more. From sixth year onwards, Battle Spirit Credits are said to be even more crucial for entering the Inner Academy.

The Soul Fighting Zone is open to all students, but a fee of one Silver Soul Coin is required for entry.

Shen Yumo's one-on-one duel attracted the attention of many students. The majority of the students who had seen the excitement at the academy gate, regardless of their grade, chose to come and watch.

When Shen Yumo arrived at the Soul Fighting Zone, many people had already poured in. The news that freshmen were accepting challenges from senior students spread like wildfire, and even more students came in an endless stream.

In Shrek Academy, everyone has a certain level of strength, let alone the senior students who are steadily leveling up. Xu Sanshi is also known as the student with the most solid defensive martial soul in the outer academy. Many people are curious to see what kind of ability the other party has, so they confidently accept the challenge.

Upon entering the Soul Battle Zone, its extraordinary nature became apparent. Shaped hexagonal, it was roughly the same size as Shrek Square, with a large open space in the center—clearly the arena for the students' battles. Surrounding it were concentric circles of seats that gradually rose in elevation, capable of accommodating approximately three thousand people at once.

Before entering the venue, Xiao Xiao was busy cheering herself on with her mouth.

Stepping onto the field, the blue-haired boy remained calm and composed, while Xu Sanshi took the match very seriously.

Her gaze swept across the audience, which was almost full. Shen Yumo saw Huo Yuhao, Tang Ya, Bei Bei, and Wang Dong, but after circling around, she didn't see Jiang Nannan. She shook her head, deciding it was best to give it her all.
