114: The little dancer paid the bill for the whole audience.

"Teacher!"

As soon as the group arrived at the Nuoding Academy cafeteria, Tang San spotted Yu Xiaogang, who was about to head up to the second floor.

"Little San, haha, you've come at just the right time. I was just about to have my meal. Why don't you join me?"

Seeing Tang San, Yu Xiaogang planned to take him upstairs to eat something nutritious; he placed quite a bit of importance on this Disciple with Innate Full Spirit Power.

As for the students next to Tang San, they were completely ignored.

"Thank you, Teacher, but no thank you. I'm spending today with Xiao Wu and the others."

Tang San spoke with a smile, having successfully met up with Xiao Wu.

Even though a few accidents had occurred, he was still very happy.

Wang Sheng and the others watched with envy. Although Yu Xiaogang was rumored to be a freeloading loser in the academy, the man could still go to the second floor and eat expensive Spirit Beast meat.

At this moment, Xiao Wu's eyes were expectantly scanning the food the other students were eating. It looked extremely simple, yet it was all her favorite greens and radishes.

She was immersed in the thought of food, so when she heard Tang San's words, she immediately went up and kicked him in the butt in annoyance.

Xiao Wu corrected him, "Call me Sister Xiao Wu!"

Seeing this scene, Yu Xiaogang's expression changed slightly. Someone actually dared to kick his Disciple right in front of him; this was showing him absolutely no respect. Crucially, Tang San just gave a couple of silly laughs.

Yu Xiaogang was somewhat disappointed by Tang San's reaction; at such a young age, he was already thinking about romance.

This wouldn't do; it would delay his Cultivation too much!

"Are you from Dorm Seven?"

"How can you hit another student? You are violating school rules!"

"Write a self-reflection for me, otherwise..."

Yu Xiaogang looked at Xiao Wu and scolded her in a teacher's tone.

"What's it to you?"

Xiao Wu was annoyed. In the Star Dou Great Forest, even Da Ming and Er Ming had to listen to her.

And you, a guy with a buzz cut, want to lecture and punish me?

"You..."

Yu Xiaogang's fingers clenched into a fist.

A student talking back to a teacher.

It was the first time he had ever seen it.

Noticing the gazes of the surrounding students, he felt that if he wasn't strict today, he, Yu Xiaogang, wouldn't have the face to show himself in the academy anymore.

"Talking back to a teacher... you're from Dorm Seven, right? You are not allowed to eat today. You won't eat until you've written your self-reflection and handed it to me!"

"Tch!"

Xiao Wu ignored him completely, going to get her food as if nothing happened under Yu Xiaogang's furious gaze.

She casually tossed a gold coin over.

"A-A gold coin!"

Wang Sheng and the others followed behind, still worried about Xiao Wu offending a teacher and what would happen next.

But seeing the gold coin, they were all dumbfounded.

They were usually lucky to have silver coins, yet Xiao Wu actually had a gold coin in her hand.

This single gold coin could buy at least a month's worth of food on this first floor.

They were all commoners, so why was the difference so huge?

"Teacher, this isn't Xiao Wu's fault..."

Tang San didn't focus on the coin; he only wanted to say a few good words for Xiao Wu to prevent their relationship from deteriorating.

"Xiao Wu? She's that Genius with Innate Full Spirit Power?"

Hearing Xiao Wu's name again, Yu Xiaogang found it increasingly familiar.

A flash of realization hit him.

Two students with Innate Full Spirit Power had come to the academy; one was his Disciple, and the other was apparently named... Xiao Wu.

Seeing Tang San nod, Yu Xiaogang suddenly regretted arguing with her.

Innate Full Spirit Power. If he could take another student with Innate Full Spirit Power as a Disciple...

He, Yu Xiaogang, could teach another Titled Douluo.

"Hmph, Little San, since you're the one pleading, I won't hold it against her."

"By the way, bring her up. I want to have a good talk with her. If she performs well, I wouldn't mind taking her as my Disciple."

Yu Xiaogang said this and headed up to the second floor on his own.

In his view, Xiao Wu simply didn't know who he was.

Once she heard of the Great Master's identity, she would surely regret her earlier behavior.

Tang San was speechless; with Xiao Wu's personality, it was impossible for her to bow her head.

Since he still needed Yu Xiaogang in the future, he could only reply respectfully, "Teacher, your Disciple understands."

"Little San-zi, what are you standing there for? Hurry up and get your food. Today's expenses are on Sister Xiao Wu!"

Xiao Wu saw Tang San still standing in the distance and gave him a loud reminder.

She looked left and right and saw no empty seats, but looking up, the second floor's decor seemed very luxurious, and there were many empty seats.

Xiao Wu stepped onto the stairs.

"Sister Xiao Wu, you can't go up there."

Wang Sheng was happily holding his lunch box. Even though it was just greens and radishes, free food always tasted better.

Turning his head and seeing Xiao Wu's actions, he was startled.

"Why?"

Facing Xiao Wu's confused gaze, Wang Sheng explained, "Up there is where the nobles and top students eat. A single meal costs a gold coin! Things we buy on the first floor can't be enjoyed on the second floor!"

"Tch, this Young Miss has plenty of money. Let's go to the second floor and buy some more."

Xiao Wu didn't care about any of that and strode up to the second floor.

Tang San could no longer make sense of the current situation; this was quite different from his memories.

He followed her up, fearing Xiao Wu might get into trouble. Those elite students didn't exactly like commoners.

Moreover, they were all upperclassmen, while they had just enrolled. If a conflict really broke out, Xiao Wu would be at a disadvantage.

Wang Sheng and the others looked at each other and silently followed.

"Sister Xiao Wu seems exceptionally wealthy, not like a typical commoner."

"I noticed too. Being able to pull out gold coins so casually and treat money like dirt... I bet back in her hometown, her family's commoner status must be very high."

"How high?"

"Probably three or four stories high!"

When Xiao Wu reached the second floor, many noble children dressed in fine clothes looked over.

Xiao Wu was wearing the beautiful pink clothes Su Wen had picked for her. Combined with her chubby baby face, she wasn't targeted like in the original story; instead, she earned the favor of many.

One of the noble children, Xiao Chenyu, was also attracted to Xiao Wu.

However, upon seeing Tang San, Wang Sheng, and the others behind her, their expressions immediately changed. The other noble children also covered their noses in disgust.

"Why have these lowly commoners come up?"

"One of them is dressed like a country bumpkin, yet he dares to come to the second floor to eat. Does he even have money?"

"They even brought up wild vegetables and radishes. Truly a bunch of peasants!"

Yu Xiaogang was enjoying his food when he heard the commotion and looked up.

Seeing Xiao Wu and Tang San come up, he felt a surge of joy.

He thought Xiao Wu must have learned of his identity and couldn't wait to apologize and ask to be his Disciple.

But seeing Wang Sheng and the others, Yu Xiaogang's face turned sour.

Treating Xiao Wu and Tang San to a meal of Spirit Beast meat for nourishment was fine.

But Wang Sheng and the rest...

Yu Xiaogang didn't have that much money on him.

Besides, they were just unimportant nobodies; they weren't worth him cultivating a relationship with.

"Hey, who let you lot up here?"

Xiao Chenyu stood up, walked right past Xiao Wu, and looked at Tang San and the others with undisguised disdain.

Covering his nose, he said, "You stink. You're covered in a sour stench. Don't taint this place with your smell. Get lost now, or I'll throw you down."

As Xiao Chenyu spoke, several noble children stood behind him, each wearing a look of contempt.
