After a period of silence, the two finally crossed the Poseidon Lake and arrived at the dormitory building of the outer courtyard.

After sending Xu Xingyu to the dormitory door, Ma Xiaotao said goodbye: "Okay, I'll take you here first. Can I find you next time I need to suppress the evil fire?"

"Of course, no problem." Xu Xingyu nodded and confirmed, "Just give me a heads up in advance, and try not to look for me when I'm in class. I don't particularly like people who skip classes."

Ma Xiaotao couldn't help but laugh and said, "But didn't you miss a day of class today?"

Hearing this, Xu Xingyu was stunned for a moment and then quickly replied: "This is a force majeure situation. I personally still hope not to miss classes."

"Okay, okay, you are really a good student!" Ma Xiaotao continued with a smile: "But I have to say that sometimes I can't control when my evil fire will erupt, so you may have to face many force majeure situations."

"Well, it's force majeure, so let it be. I've already promised you anyway." Xu Xingyu sighed.

Seeing Xu Xingyu's helpless expression, Ma Xiaotao suddenly said seriously: "I know this may be a bit redundant, but thank you."

After saying that, Ma Xiaotao bowed to Xu Xingyu.

Ma Xiaotao's action immediately confused Xu Xingyu, and soon Xu Xingyu complained in her heart: "What are you thanking me for? Is it because I helped you suppress the evil fire?"

"But I remember you seemed to have done it in your room before, and I don't think what I did is worthy of your serious treatment?!? Or are you, Ma Xiaotao, not a Douluo but a person from some island country?"

While Xu Xingyu was still daydreaming, Ma Xiaotao continued, "I thank you not only because you are willing to help suppress my evil fire, but also because you helped me figure out some things."

"Although I'm still a little confused, at least I seem to be able to vaguely understand what you wanted to say at the time. So I will also take some time to talk to my worried brother."

"Okay, I'll stop here for now. It seems like there's someone waiting for you, so I won't bother you any further! See you next time!"

A pair of red phoenix wings appeared behind Ma Xiaotao again, and Ma Xiaotao began to spread her wings and fly towards the inner courtyard.

Xu Xingyu looked at Ma Xiaotao's gradually leaving figure and couldn't help but sigh: "It seems that her intuition is quite sharp. I don't have to worry about Xiaotian's affairs anymore."

"Coming to the point, compared to the description in the original novel, Ma Xiaotao seems to be more important and easier to talk to than I imagined. I originally thought that she would force me to tell her the truth like she did in order to find that ice attribute spirit master."

"As expected, novels are just novels after all. Even if most of the things are the same as in the novels, there is still a difference between reality and novels. You can't always look at people with tinted glasses."

After saying that, Xu Xingyu added in her mind: "Of course, except for a certain God King who likes to use a fork. After all, anyone who knows a little about his past will notice that there is something wrong with that person."

After Ma Xiaotao's figure completely disappeared in the sky, Xu Xingyu began to walk into the dormitory building to prepare for a good sleep.

However, at this moment Xu Xingyu finally remembered Wang Donger, whom he had forgotten for the whole day. Coupled with Ma Xiaotao's words that it seemed like someone was waiting for him, an ominous premonition spread in Xu Xingyu's heart.

The moment he opened the door, a pair of hands grabbed him, and then a figure pounced on Xu Xingyu and grabbed him tightly.

And that person was none other than Wang Donger, whom he had not seen since the training this morning.

At this time, Wang Dong'er looked at Xu Xingyu with tears in her eyes and shouted, "Xu Xingyu! Who was that woman just now!? Where did you hook her up with!?!? And where have you been all day!? I couldn't find you no matter how hard I tried. Do you know how anxious I was at that time?"

"Do you know how much effort I spent to find out that you were accidentally injured by an inner courtyard student, and then sent to the inner courtyard for treatment by the inner courtyard teacher! Do you know how worried I was about you when I heard the news!!!!?!?!"

Facing Wang Dong'er's endless questions, Xu Xingyu could only force her into her arms, and held Wang Dong'er up like a princess, explaining, "Okay, this is my fault. I'll close the door first and then I'll explain it to you slowly."

Wang Dong'er looked at Xu Xingyu seriously and said, "It's settled."

"Yes, I said it."

After saying that, Xu Xingyu used her soul power to close the dormitory door through the air, and carried Wang Donger to their bed.

After putting Wang Dong'er on the bed, Xu Xingyu began to explain everything that happened today and why he was forced to take a day off.

Of course, Xu Xingyu omitted some unimportant things in this process. After all, knowing too much is a very troublesome thing.

After hearing that Xu Xingyu fought the mad Ma Xiaotao alone to protect them, Wang Dong'er's originally aggressive attitude softened for a while.

But when Xu Xingyu said that she would have to help Ma Xiaotao suppress her evil fire every once in a while, she began to frown again.

Wang Dong'er asked doubtfully, "Do you really need to help Ma Xiaotao suppress the evil fire? Although our Qiling Pagoda has always wanted to establish a branch in Shrek City, in theory it doesn't matter whether we have one or not. After all, we have many branches all over the continent."

In response, Xu Xingyu nodded with satisfaction and said, "Dong'er, I'm glad you thought of this, but you seem to have forgotten one thing."

"whats the matter?"

"That is, don't forget that Shrek Academy is still regarded as the holy place for cultivation in Douluo Continent by the entire continent. Therefore, if a Soul Contracting Tower is built in Shrek City, it will indirectly mean that Shrek has also accepted the soul technology of the new era. Therefore, the soul method of our Soul Contracting Tower will be further promoted."

"Is this why you insist on building a Soul-Conquering Tower here in Shrek?" Wang Dong'er asked in surprise.

To this, Xu Xingyu responded: "Of course I have other reasons, but it is not convenient to tell at this stage, so please allow me to keep this secret for now."

Looking at Xu Xingyu's mysterious expression, Wang Dong'er knew that she would not be able to get the next words out of Xu Xingyu's mouth no matter what.

So she began to change the subject and asked, "Then is it necessary to accept those three soul bones? I remember that the soul bones collected in our Qiling Tower are countless more than the three given by the academy, so wouldn't it just take up space if we take these?"

"You mean the three soul bones? You're right. There's really no need for me to accept this hot gift from the academy."

"Then why do you......"

"That's because I want to do an experiment and use these three soul bones as experimental materials. If this experiment is really successful, then our soul technology in the Soul Contracting Tower can be further improved!"
