Though Wu Zhangkong wore his usual mask of iciness, his eyes seemed to flicker with conflicted emotions.
“Let’s find an inn first.”
The word ‘luxury’ didn’t exist in the dictionary of the inn that Wu Zhangkong chose, simply finding one that was near the station and booked three rooms.
The inn gave off an antique feel with its simple architecture and mottled exterior of stone and wood, and its interior was neat and tidy, though their amenities were plain.
Each room had one bed, two bedside cabinets, a wardrobe, a desk, and a chair. Only two people could fit in the washroom at a time, and that was all. It had four white walls and a window with a view of the train station.
Wu Zhangkong had a room to himself while the students were split by gender into two other rooms.
Wu Zhangkong had wanted to get a three-person room, but this inn only had two-person rooms. Otherwise, they would have only needed two rooms.
“So comfortable.” Xie Xie pounced on the bed the instant they entered the room, and spread his limbs.
Tang Wulin, on the other hand, went to the window to take in their new environment.
“Wulin, why do you think you think Teacher Wu is so stingy with the rooms? He should have a good salary from the academy, and he’s even a battle armor master! You should have seen how awesome it was! He’s got to be rich since he made his battle armor!”
Tang Wulin laughed. “Teacher Wu just doesn’t care about such mundane things. Now you! You should be a bit more modest. We’re not here to have fun.”
Xie Xie said, “Fine, fine. I’m going to nap first then. The train was so cramped I couldn’t even stretch my legs.” Although trains were convenient, second class seats were by no means comfortable.
Xie Xie’s breathing soon steadied.
Tang Wulin took a bath and, after putting on some clean clothes, he went to Wu Zhangkong’s room and pressed the doorbell.
When Wu Zhangkong opened the door and saw him, he let him in silently.
“Teacher Wu, can we go now?” Tang Wulin asked.
Wu Zhangkong glanced at the sky. “Don’t be anxious. Auctions are held in the evening, so we still have plenty of time and Shrek City’s auction has quite a selection; I’m sure we’ll be able to find it. You need to be patient.”
“Okay.” Tang Wulin took a deep breath in and calmed himself. His nerves really were a bit jittery.
He had never thought himself talented. His martial soul was the trashy Bluesilver Grass, and though his two soul rings were at the thousand-year level, they were still merely thousand-year Bluesilver Grass soul rings. As for his golden dragon claw, while it was powerful, it wasn’t sustainable.
He was confident in his combative skills and would only place himself below Gu Yue, but this was Shrek Academy! If he wanted to pass the exam, he had to take it up a notch!
Wu Zhangkong said, “Wulin, let me ask you again. Are you sure your strength will increase once you have all four spirit items? If you’re not absolutely certain, then I recommend that you not act hastily. The slightest mistake could negatively affect your future.”
