Soul Land: Bibi Dong Is My Martial Soul

Chapter 11: You Think You're Better Than Me?

Despite having anticipated this outcome, Su Mo couldn't help but feel a surge of resentment when he heard Yu Xiaogang's rejection.

You think you're better than me?

You're just a loser with barely half a rank of innate soul power. What makes you so high and mighty?

"So, it was still a no..."

Su Mo let out a self-deprecating sigh, as if he had expected this result all along.

Yu Xiaogang's expression grew slightly awkward upon hearing Su Mo's self-mockery. Did he make his disdain for Su Mo's talent too obvious?

"I understand. Sorry to have disturbed you, Master. Goodbye."

Without waiting for Yu Xiaogang to explain or defend himself, Su Mo politely took his leave and turned to walk away.

There was no hesitation in his steps.

"..."

Watching Su Mo's resolute departure, Yu Xiaogang half-raised his hand but ultimately did not call out to him.

Even if he did stop him, what could he say?

Take him back as a disciple? He wasn't willing to do that.

"Sigh…"

Yu Xiaogang let out a soft sigh. He didn't regret rejecting Su Mo, but he couldn't help feeling a bit melancholy.

Someone had come to him, seeking to become his disciple, yet he had turned them away.

...

"Wait…"

"Wait, don't go so quickly…"

As soon as Su Mo left, Bibi Dong hurriedly caught up, anxiously trying to persuade him.

She hadn't expected Yu Xiaogang to actually reject Su Mo.

This was supposed to be the lowest point in Yu Xiaogang's life.

And even if he was rejected, Su Mo shouldn't have walked away so quickly. He should have talked things over; maybe he could have persuaded Yu Xiaogang!

But no matter what Bibi Dong said beside him, Su Mo didn't stop walking.

It was only after leaving Nuoding Academy that Su Mo stopped in an isolated spot.

"Goddess Sister, he already rejected me. Do you really expect me to beg him?"

"I never wanted him as my teacher in the first place. I only went because you asked me to!"

Su Mo turned to Bibi Dong, his expression filled with displeasure as he spoke.

"..."

Bibi Dong was momentarily taken aback by Su Mo's words.

"But…"

Even though she knew Su Mo had a point, Bibi Dong was still unwilling to let him give up so easily: "But your talent really isn't great. That's why I wanted you to become his disciple! If you were more sincere, you might have convinced him!"

What's a little humiliation if it means you could become Yu Xiaogang's disciple?

"..."

Su Mo felt a chill in his heart at Bibi Dong's words.

It was clear now that Bibi Dong wasn't his golden opportunity. For some unknown reason, she had simply been reborn as his martial soul.

"Goddess Sister, there's no need to say any more. He's already refused, and I'm definitely not going to beg him again!"

"Besides, you've misjudged him. He's not as great as you think he is!"

"His own talent isn't much better than mine, yet he looks down on me for having low talent. That alone makes me dislike him!"

"In fact, his talent is worse than mine!"

Su Mo looked at Bibi Dong, his gaze firm as he responded.

"You…"

Bibi Dong was taken aback by Su Mo's determined eyes. Over the past few days, she had come to understand this little brat a bit better and knew that once Su Mo made up his mind, it was nearly impossible to change it.

She had gone through great effort to convince Su Mo to seek out Yu Xiaogang as a mentor. She had even praised Yu Xiaogang, portraying him as someone truly extraordinary. Now, hearing Su Mo's words, Bibi Dong was not pleased, but she couldn't argue against him.

After all, it was true that Yu Xiaogang had rejected Su Mo because of his low talent.

"But only he can help you solve the problem of your martial soul talent!"

However, Bibi Dong wasn't one to give up easily. She avoided other arguments and focused on the most critical point.

"I don't need him!"

Su Mo, clearly angry and resolute, snapped back, then, showing he had no interest in continuing the conversation with Bibi Dong, he turned and walked away.

At this moment, he was indeed very frustrated with Bibi Dong.

He was even starting to feel a bit of disgust!

He had already helped Bibi Dong see more clearly what kind of person Yu Xiaogang was, yet she still clung to him like this.

A woman blinded by love is truly hopeless!

"This damn brat! Why is he so proud at such a young age?"

Watching Su Mo's quick departure, Bibi Dong gritted her teeth in frustration.

If she could use any means, she would definitely give Su Mo a good beating to make him understand the consequences of defying her.

You may feel satisfied, but I can't be by Yu Xiaogang's side now!

The more Bibi Dong thought about it, the angrier she became. Ever since she became the Pope of Spirit Hall, no one had ever defied her like this.

As Su Mo walked farther away, Bibi Dong felt a pull from a distant force, which worsened her mood.

Not only had she failed to convince Su Mo to become Yu Xiaogang's disciple, but she also couldn't leave Su Mo's body.

...

After Su Mo refused to beg Yu Xiaogang again, he noticed that Bibi Dong stopped appearing.

He could sense that she had returned to his martial soul space, seemingly angry and unwilling to come out.

Or perhaps she knew she couldn't persuade him, so she decided not to bother.

From what Su Mo knew about Bibi Dong, he was sure he had made her angry, maybe even enough for her to resent him.

Yet despite this, Bibi Dong didn't seem to take any action against him.

This led Su Mo to become more confident that Bibi Dong couldn't threaten him anymore.

"After all, no matter how powerful she once was, she's now just my martial soul!"

"I am the master of the martial soul!"

Realizing this, Su Mo's frustration from being rejected by Yu Xiaogang dissipated significantly.

With his mood restored, Su Mo stopped worrying about whether Bibi Dong would appear again.

If she didn't show up, he'd just pretend he didn't have this martial soul.

After all, based on what he had learned from Bibi Dong, it seemed that awakening the Rakshasa God martial soul required a high soul power level.

If he couldn't become powerful enough, he might never be able to awaken the Rakshasa God martial soul in this lifetime.

"No, I will become strong on my own!"

"If Yu Xiaogang can't solve the problem of talent limitations, that doesn't mean I can't!"

"After all, my knowledge and perspective are much broader than his!"

"Relying on others will never be as good as relying on myself!"

"I'll think about using immortal herbs to change my talent later. For now, just because I don't have any, doesn't mean I can't find another way!"

"I refuse to believe that…"

The rejection from Yu Xiaogang ignited a fierce determination within Su Mo.

At the same time, it sparked a strong sense of competitiveness in him.

So, in addition to his daily training, Su Mo began to carefully and seriously contemplate whether there was a way to solve his problem.
