Join Tang San and Get Xiao Wu

Night fell.

Xiao Wu took a bath, carefully washing herself clean. With excitement, she pulled out a pair of pink-and-white stockings, slipping them on.

These weren't ordinary stockings. The soles featured soft pink paw pads, resembling the claws of a baby beast.

Previously, Meng Bei had teased her, suggesting such stockings. Remembering his comment, Xiao Wu had them custom-made just for him.

She stood before the mirror, looking at herself. A mix of embarrassment and annoyance filled her.

"Hmph, that rascal, always thinking of bad ideas!"

Xiao Wu pouted, expressing her dissatisfaction with Meng Bei.

Despite her complaints, she finished dressing up, carefully arranging her appearance before sneaking off to Meng Bei's dormitory.

Standing at his door, Xiao Wu knocked eagerly.

"Bad guy, I'm here!" she announced cheerfully.

Inside, Meng Bei jumped up in surprise. He quickly opened the door but immediately covered her mouth with his hand.

Xiao Wu, startled, looked at him in confusion.

Meng Bei whispered cautiously, "Shh! Rongrong is inside. Why didn't you tell me you were coming?"

Hearing this, Xiao Wu's heart sank.

Peeking inside, she saw Ning Rongrong lying on the bed, her clothes slightly disheveled.

For a moment, Xiao Wu couldn't hide the pain in her eyes. It felt as if something that belonged to her had been taken away.

"What does he mean by this? Why can't I be here if Rongrong is here?

"I prepared so carefully for this, and he doesn't care at all. Instead, he's with someone else…"

Her voice tinged with jealousy, she said, "Looks like I came at the wrong time. Sorry for disturbing you."

Turning around, Xiao Wu began to leave.

Meng Bei immediately realized his mistake. In this sensitive moment, his words and actions had deeply hurt Xiao Wu.

Without hesitation, he reached out, grabbing her hand and pulling her into his arms.

Softly, he said, "Don't go. I was just thinking about you."

Feeling his embrace, Xiao Wu's mood lightened slightly.

"At least I'm still in his heart."

But even so, her voice remained laced with jealousy.

"Thinking about me? Don't you already have Rongrong?"

Meng Bei didn't waste time with explanations. Actions spoke louder than words.

He leaned in, kissing her deeply. Their breaths intertwined, and Xiao Wu's expression softened, her resistance fading.

"Let's go to my dorm," she whispered.

Meng Bei nodded, lifting her into his arms and swiftly heading toward her room.

His hand brushed against her slender legs, wrapped in the soft pink-and-white stockings, their purity captivating. Along the way, her shoes slipped off unnoticed.

Fascinated by the paw pads on her soles, Meng Bei couldn't resist teasing her, thoroughly enjoying the playful interaction.

"Ding! Item discovered: Paw Pad Stockings!

Effect: +50% attack speed, +50% stamina!"

Xiao Wu, flustered, exclaimed, "You're so bad! Stop teasing me like this!"

Her protests were half-hearted, her tone tinged with embarrassment.

But Meng Bei only chuckled. "Xiao Wu, I think you secretly like being teased like this."

Blushing, Xiao Wu avoided his gaze. "No way! I… I like Third Brother!"

Elsewhere, under the night sky, Tang San awoke with a jolt.

It had been a nightmare—terrifying and vivid.

His ribs ached faintly. Though healed, they still required time to fully recover.

But more troubling than the physical pain was the haunting dream.

In it, he was getting married, dressed as the groom. Xiao Wu was his bride.

Yet, as he approached the bridal chamber, the door slammed shut, leaving him outside. Inside, he could hear…

"No, it's not real. It's just a nightmare!" Tang San reassured himself.

Despite his efforts to dismiss the dream, an unsettling unease lingered.

After that night, Ning Rongrong seemed to sense something.

Even when exhausted, she clung to Meng Bei like an octopus, refusing to let him leave her side. Xiao Wu, for her part, was full of resentment.

Meng Bei was also feeling troubled.

Compared to Xiao Wu, Rongrong was simply too delicate.

Though Rongrong always tried her best, the difference between the two girls was undeniable.

Rongrong's skin was like smooth lychee, flawless and tender, as if a light touch could leave a mark. Seeing her fragile beauty, Meng Bei couldn't bear to be too rough with her.

Xiao Wu, on the other hand, though small and adorable, had remarkable endurance. No matter how Meng Bei pushed her limits, she always kept up.

In the following days, Qin Ming visited several times. After much negotiation, he finalized plans for Shrek Academy to merge with Heaven Dou Imperial Academy.

However, moving the academy wasn't a simple task.

The two sides agreed to complete the transition within two months, giving Shrek time to prepare and Qin Ming an opportunity to coordinate with the higher-ups at Heaven Dou Academy.

Meng Bei didn't care much about whether Shrek moved or not.

The system's task only required him to lead Shrek to victory against the Emperor Team and proceed to Heaven Dou City.

Whether or not Shrek successfully integrated with Heaven Dou Imperial Academy was irrelevant to him. As long as they reached Heaven Dou, his mission was complete.

Meng Bei eagerly anticipated the system rewards. This time, the prize was a domain—a rare and powerful ability even many Titled Douluo lacked.

Even the most basic domain could elevate a spirit master's power significantly.

To celebrate the upcoming reward, Meng Bei indulged himself one night.

Ning Rongrong, despite her frailty, endured his antics, though it left her utterly drained. By morning, she couldn't even get out of bed.

The next day, Grandmaster gathered the Shrek Seven early for training.

With the special training at the arena complete and two months until the move, he decided to focus on individually tailored sessions to boost their spirit power.

However, no matter how long they waited, Meng Bei and Ning Rongrong didn't show up.

Grandmaster's expression darkened.

Ning Rongrong's absence wasn't surprising. She had always been lackadaisical about training.

But Meng Bei? He had always been the most diligent among them. Now he was just as lax as Ning Rongrong!

This was a bad sign.

Grandmaster noticed that ever since the special training ended, Meng Bei's intensity had dropped. Once, he trained two to three times harder than everyone else. Now, he barely put in any effort.

Grandmaster knew that if a genius grew complacent, they would eventually fall into mediocrity.

He resolved to correct Meng Bei's behavior before it became a bigger problem.
