Rebirth of the Godly Prodigal

Panda Novel

“A bunch of dregs!” Gu Feifei spat disdainfully, then looked at Hong Dali. “Okay, let’s go. Stop dawdling. It’s not good if we are late.”

<span> Hong Dali leaned toward her carefully and whispered, “Ah, that, I don’t know the way…”

<span> “I know.” Gu Feifei resolutely led the way. “Follow me.”

<span> Well, Gu Feifei was definitely the most popular Big Sister in the Divine College now, and Hong Dali was a rising star. Together, they attracted everyone’s attention immediately—

<span> “Quick look, quick look, isn’t that Big Sister Gu Feifei? Why is she with Hong Dali?”

<span> “God, are the gates of hell open? Big Sister Gu Feifei and the God of Face Smacking Hong Dali. That’s terrifying!”

<span> “Where are they going? Class? Are they in the same class? Physical Training Faculty Class 18?”

<span> “Tell me about it. Just one Gu Feifei is enough headache. Add the God of Face Smacking Hong Dali to that and the Physical Training Faculty will be invincible! Horrifying, it’s really horrifying!”

<span> The students looked at them from a distance and pointed. Gu Feifei was obviously used to such gossip, but she was with Hong Dali today and it made her feel ashamed—Hong Dali was her roommate, okay?

<span> “Scram!” Gu Feifei looked around and clenched her fists. “Don’t make me angry! Otherwise, I’ll rip your skin off!”

<span> “Ahhh! Big Sister is angry, ahhhhh! Everyone, run!” In the blink of an eye, there was not a single figure seen within 500 meters!

<span> She was indeed the Big Sister who intimidated all the students in the Divine College. She was so domineering!

<span> Hong Dali’s little heart pounded as he watched her. He felt false bravado walking with this big sister. Was it not like a fox exploiting the might of a tiger? That’s right, he was small in size, so he was naturally the fox. Big Sister was more heavily built, it was obvious she was the tiger…

<span> Speaking of which, with Big Sister Gu Feifei escorting him, the journey was really safe and uneventful.

<span> Big Sister threw Bei Yuanqing down from the 18th floor. With his ability, he would definitely not die. But, if he wanted to create trouble for Hong Dali again, he would have to think carefully—it was quite a lot less troublesome for him. There was one less fool who kept coming to him to get beaten up…

<span> Hong Dali admired the surrounding scenery as he walked. The scenery at the Divine College was indeed very beautiful. What especially impressed Hong Dali was the clean, crisp, smog-free sky. The air was comfortable to breathe in. It was neither too dry nor too wet, it was just right. Flowers and other plants were planted on the side of the road, vibrantly colorful and very beautiful. As Hong Dali walked, he said, “Speaking of which, Feifei, with your strength, is there still anything for you to learn here? You can beat up Bei Yuanqing with no difficulty at all, and the mentors of this college seem to… well, you know.”

<span> What he meant was obvious.

<span> Gu Feifei was so powerful even the Bei Family number one genius, Bei Yuanqing, could not do anything but be tortured by her. Was there anything left for her to learn here? It seemed unlikely.

<span> “Coming to school is just an excuse.” Gu Feifei said indifferently, “My real goal is the secret manuals in this school. You know, Planet-level secret manuals are not a big deal, but Stellar-level and above secret manuals are quite useful. The problem is, it’s too expensive if I were to buy them outside. It’s not cost-effective. If I study here, I can just go to the library to refer to regular secret manuals. If there is anything I do not understand, I can ask the teachers. That’s much better than being outside.”

<span> So that was the reason behind her choice. It would seem that Gu Feifei had a strong sense of purpose. Not bad.

<span> “Then, Feifei,” Hong Dali thought for a while, then asked, “with your ability, there should be many places which are eager to have you join them? How are you so short of money? Just join any organization and it should not be hard to get millions or tens of millions a month?”

<span> This was a question he had been dying to ask.

<span> Gu Feifei was more powerful than Bei Yuanqing. She should not have to worry wherever she went. Why was she having such a hard time?

<span> “No choice, I have a bad temper.” Gu Feifei did not hide it. “I have worked someplace before, but I did not like to listen to the manager. We argued, and finally, I broke his leg. After that, most people did not dare to employ me. I cannot be bothered either. It’s not bad being carefree like now. When I graduate, I will adventure at those slightly more dangerous places. It should not be a problem to earn enough for food and lodgings for me and my parents.”

<span> Okay, what was an independent woman? Gu Feifei was.

<span> She advocated freedom even though it was mainly because her temper was bad. She did not ask anyone for help and tried hard to make it on her own. In general, she had many good points. She was much stronger than those women who ignored you as soon as they realized that you were poor, and threw themselves at you when they heard that you were rich.

<span> During the course of their conversation, they reached the foot of a giant tree that was more than 300 meters tall and about 70 to 80 meters thick. The tree’s entire trunk was smooth and it had no branches. There was a line of big shiny golden text engraved on it: “Divine College, Physical Training Faculty.”

<span> “We are here. This is the place, come with me.” Gu Feifei led the way.

<span> On the way, many classmates took the initiative to remain more than ten meters away from her. That made her stand out against the crowd.

<span> Her burly physique, coupled with the pair of steel arm-guards, made her practically invincible!

<span> At the entrance of Class 18, a middle-aged man wearing glasses looked at Hong Dali and smiled. He then approached. “Young Master Hong Dali, right? The dean told me about you. Hello, my name is Jynx. I am your mentor.”

<span> “Hello, Teacher Jynx.” Hong Dali greeted him with a big smile. “Pleased to meet you.”

<span> “Yes, pleased to meet you too. Please come in.” Jynx led them both into the classroom, and Gu Feifei went to her seat.

<span> The classroom was very large, with an area of about 300 square meters. In the middle were desks and chairs, surrounded by a large vacant area filled with a variety of exercise equipment. There were all kinds; presumably, they all had their specific uses.

<span> At this point, all the students in the classroom were seated. There were 30 people in total. When they saw Hong Dali, they all quieted down and pointed at him. “Look, isn’t that the God of Face Smacking, Hong Dali? He came here with Gu Feifei? What’s the situation?” “Don’t you know? I heard they are roommates. He actually dares to stay in the same room as Gu Feifei. He is indeed the God of Face Smacking. My idol!” “Yeah. He rooms with Gu Feifei and furthermore, the two look like they are on good terms. Amazing. He must be someone powerful.”

<span> “Okay, everyone, please be quiet!” Mentor Jynx tapped the table lightly. After the classroom had quieted, he introduced. “This is Class 18’s new member, Young Master Hong Dali. Please welcome him!”

<span> There was warm applause.

<span> “Hello, everyone. My name is Hong Dali, pleased to meet you.” Hong Dali greeted everyone with a smile.

<span> “Haha, Hong Dali, I heard that your hobby is squandering?” asked a girl, giggling.

<span> “Ah, being a prodigal is my profession.” Hong Dali was not embarrassed at all. “Well, I don’t really have any hobbies, and I don’t really know how to do anything. So, I can only squander.”

<span> The students all immediately started laughing, but their laughter was friendly. “Hahaha, this God of Face Smacking is quite interesting.” “Isn’t that so. He seems quite easy to talk to.” “He’s such an amiable person, only Bei Yuanqing the fool would aggravate him. I’ve said it before, he’s not a good sort. He just likes to look down on people!” “That’s right, that’s right!”

<span> “Okay, everyone be quiet.” Mentor Jynx tapped the table again and arranged a seat for Hong Dali. “Young Master Dali, you sit next to Gu Feifei. You’ll be able to take care of each other.”

<span> “Okay!” Hong Dali nodded, then walked to the seat next to Gu Feifei and sat down.

<span> Now that Hong Dali had been introduced, it was time for the lesson to start.

<span> “All right. Students, during the last lesson, we talked about the classification of various parallel dimensions in the universe, so today we will continue talking about it.” Jynx began to draw on the holographic projection light curtain above the podium.

<span> “This circle represents our dimension.” Then, he drew several circles. “At present, according to the literary records, the dimensions that we know about are the cultivation dimension, the monster dimension, the demon dimension, the biomechanical dimension, the live plant fiber dimension, magic dimension, sorcerer dimension, etc. These dimensions will intersect with ours whenever a black hole explodes in the universe…”

<span> Hong Dali’s scalp tingled as he listened! So many dimensions?! Oh my God, if they came into contact with each other, wouldn’t fists be dancing with magic and fairy swords fly with sorcery?!

<span> Of course, lessons basically went over Hong Dali’s head. He had nothing to cultivate or train in, anyway. He could not train, and his attributes could not be increased. It was no exaggeration to say that if he wanted to become more powerful, he could only squander more and exchange for skills with the system…

<span> At this time, on the podium, Mentor Jynx was telling everyone about the general history of the universe.

<span> In simple terms, this was a world in which both crisis and opportunity coexisted.

<span> In the vast universe, countless Dimensions Wars had been fought over the years. Each time, numerous warriors and fighters would lose their lives. When elite warriors died, they would inevitably leave behind countless treasures. It could be a magical artifact from the cultivation dimension or a magical weapon from the magic dimension. There were all sorts of things—of course, to obtain those, one needed luck…

<span> “It’s boring.” After understanding the general situation in the universe, Hong Dali laid his head on the table and sighed.

<span> He had to do something, right? Hong Dali took out the small tablet he brought and started looking at it. As to why it was a flat display tablet, that was because it did not seem appropriate to use a holographic display in the classroom. It was too attention-grabbing. Using a tablet was much more convenient. So the question was, what was he doing with the tablet? Naturally, it was to look at the stock market…
