Douluo Continent: The Ruler of Time, Reigning Supreme

Chapter 192 Library Fixed Respawn NPC
Seeing Wang Dong's exasperated expression, Xiao Xiao thought that her words had hit a nerve, and she became even more smug.

She playfully made a face at Wang Dong, sticking out her pink tongue in a provocative manner:

"Hehehe—it's jealousy, I knew it."

"You little brat, Xiao Xiao, you've gotten too bold, haven't you? I'll teach you a lesson today."

Wang Dong was thoroughly enraged by her words and immediately rolled up his sleeves, making a move to grab her.

"Ah, help."

Upon seeing this, Xiao Xiao immediately turned pale, screamed, and turned to run away.

She was quite clever; she ran around Huo Yuhao, using him as a shield, while constantly calling out to him for help.
"Yuhao, save me! Wang Dong is furious and he's going to hit me!"

"You dare to run? Stop right there!"

"No way, if you're so capable, then catch up with me."

Under the moonlight, the figures of two teenagers surrounded another helpless boy, chasing and playing around.

Huo Yuhao helplessly covered his forehead, looking at these two clowns, but couldn't help but reveal a warm smile on his lips.

This carefree playfulness seemed to dispel the last trace of sadness in the air caused by the impending farewell.

Youth is great.

As the sounds of laughter and playfulness behind him faded into the distance, Yin Chen soon arrived at the entrance of the outer courtyard library.

He showed his student ID, verified his identity with the elderly man in charge of registration at the entrance, and then entered this temple of knowledge.

The library was brightly lit, yet unusually quiet.

Rows of tall bookshelves, like silent giants, stand neatly arranged, exuding the unique aroma of ancient paper and ink.

Although most students have already left the school, there are still a few scattered figures in the library, immersed in the sea of ​​books.

Most of them were senior students, or like Yin Chen, diligent individuals who wanted to continue learning during the holidays.

Yin Chen ignored everyone else and began to wander slowly among the maze-like bookshelves, his eyes quickly scanning the names on the spines of the books, searching for the books he needed.

"Structure and Variation Analysis of Soul Skills", "Introduction and Conjecture of Spatial Theory", "Ancient Martial Soul Illustrated Guide: Fragments"...

He needs a wealth of knowledge from different fields to form the foundation for creating that brand-new soul skill.

But soon, his steps stopped at the corner of a bookshelf.

His gaze fell on a figure not far away, sitting quietly at a desk, engrossed in reading a thick book, bathed in the soft light of a wall lamp.

She was a woman with a gentle and intellectual temperament.

It was Han Ruoruo, the library's regular NPC who also served as their class's deputy homeroom teacher.

"Sister Ruoruo, you really are in the library."

Yin Chen smiled knowingly, stepped over, and greeted him softly.

Since the start of the semester, he has visited the library quite a few times, and almost every time, he has seen Han Ruoruo there.

This assistant homeroom teacher genuinely loves reading and knowledge.

"Silver dust?"

Hearing the familiar voice, Han Ruoruo looked up from her book.

When she saw that it was Yin Chen, a clear look of surprise appeared in her beautiful eyes.

"It's already the holidays, why are you still at the library? I thought you kids had already disappeared."

She closed the book in her hand and said with a smile.

She knew that some students, either because they lived far away or because of their personalities, had already quietly left the college on the day the holiday was announced.

"I'm here to find a few books to take back and read."

Yin Chen didn't hide his purpose and said directly:

"I'm currently working on a new soul skill and need to look up some information."

“You…” Hearing this, Han Ruoruo couldn’t help but sigh. Her eyes were filled with admiration and a hint of helplessness as she looked at Yin Chen.

"Your talent is so good that even we teachers are jealous, and you still work so hard. No wonder you've become so strong."

As Yin Chen's assistant homeroom teacher, she knew his strength much better than anyone else.

Soul power level, that simple number, has absolutely no reference value for the boy in front of him.

She even personally sparred with Yin Chen in private once.

During that sparring session, her assessment of Yin Chen was summed up in just eight words—a genuine little monster.

She still clearly remembers that neither of them really went all out that time.

As a teacher, she naturally couldn't use powerful soul skills on her students, let alone use her martial soul true form.

Yin Chen also did not use his fourth soul skill, "At This Moment".

As for the outcome of the battle... that's no longer important.

Importantly, she could sense that, without using his soul skills, this twelve-year-old boy already possessed the qualifications to directly confront her, a teacher at the Soul Saint level.

This is simply unbelievable.

"Sister Ruoruo, aren't you going home for the holidays?"

Yin Chen didn't respond to her question, but instead asked with some curiosity.

"Ah."

A gentle and serene smile appeared on Han Ruoruo's face. She gently stroked the thick book on the table and said softly.

"For me, Shrek Academy is my home."

Her tone was calm, yet it carried a deep sense of belonging.

"I see."

Yin Chen nodded and did not ask any further questions.

He could sense that behind this simple sentence might lie a story unknown to others.

But he respected her privacy and understood her deep affection for the college.

"What kind of book are you looking for? Tell me, and I'll help you find it."

Han Ruoruo suddenly spoke up.

"Thank you very much, Sister Ruoruo."

Yin Chen didn't stand on ceremony either.

He knew that Han Ruoruo had been stationed in the library for many years, and her familiarity with this vast treasure trove of knowledge was far beyond his own.

In the vast library, there were very few books that she didn't know were placed in any corner.

With the help of Han Ruoruo, the humanoid search system, Yin Chen quickly found the few obscure and ancient books he needed.

"Sister Ruoruo, I'll be going now. See you next year."

Yin Chen carried the thick books to the front desk and registered to borrow them.

Then, he turned around and waved to Han Ruoruo, who was still sitting under the lamp.

"Okay, see you next year."

Han Ruoruo raised her head, gave him a gentle smile, and waved lightly.

"Be careful on the road."

Watching the boy's departing figure, Han Ruoruo's smile lingered for a long time.

Her gaze returned to the book in front of her, but she didn't turn a page for a long time.
