By the time afternoon arrived!

Outside the manor where Chen Yuan lived, two beautiful figures appeared. They were Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing.

Ning Rongrong pulled Zhu Zhuqing into the manor and into the courtyard, calling out:

"Brother Chen Yuan, are you there?"

Hearing her voice, Chen Yuan immediately woke from Meditation. After checking himself, he found that both his injuries and Soul Power had recovered for the most part.

He got to his feet, stretched lazily, then walked to the door and opened it. Seeing that it was not just Ning Rongrong but Zhu Zhuqing as well, he was somewhat surprised. Then he said:

"Rongrong, you're here. And Zhu Qing too—you came together?"

The two girls' eyes lit up when they saw Chen Yuan. Zhu Zhuqing was quiet and reserved, merely nodding. Ning Rongrong, on the other hand, was lively and cheerful as she said in a coquettish tone:

"You haven't come to see me for so long, so I had no choice but to bring my sister to find you."

An apologetic look appeared on Chen Yuan's face.

"Sorry. I've been practicing swordsmanship and meditating lately, so I didn't get the chance to come see you."

Ning Rongrong was not truly angry. Hearing this, her eyes darted as she said:

"So that's how it is. Then I forgive you. But, Brother Chen Yuan, you have to accompany us to the Great Soul Arena for spirit battles today. Training needs a balance between work and rest—you can't stay at home all the time."

The spirit battle plot had begun far too early. This was different from what he knew. Thinking this, Chen Yuan nodded, intending to investigate further.

"Sure. I made a breakthrough in my training today, so it's a good time to go out for a walk. We can settle both lunch and dinner in the city."

The two girls reacted differently to this. Zhu Zhuqing looked at Chen Yuan again and found that his aura was like a divine sword drawn from its sheath, its sharp edge fully exposed and incomparably fierce. As expected, he had grown stronger.

Although Ning Rongrong was happy about Chen Yuan's breakthrough in strength, upon learning that he had not eaten yet, she immediately said:

"Brother Chen Yuan, then let's hurry. Once we get to Suotuo City, we'll have a feast."

Chen Yuan smiled and nodded.

"Wait a moment. I need to go back and change. I'm still wearing the clothes I practiced swordsmanship in."

After saying that, Chen Yuan returned to the house, took out a set of casual clothes from his Storage Soul Tool, and changed into them. His hair was not particularly neat, but even casually draped over his shoulders and back, it made him look carefree and unrestrained. Handsome people looked good no matter what.

When he opened the door again and stepped outside, the two girls' gazes kept falling on him. Chen Yuan chuckled and said:

"Let's go. By the way, how has your academy's training been lately?"

The man and two women then left the manor and headed toward Suotuo City.

Chen Yuan's question opened Ning Rongrong's floodgates, and she told him everything that had happened before. Finally, she said:

"That Grandmaster named Yu Xiaogang only taught us for one day before he got so triggered that he didn't want to teach us anymore. The number one theoretician in the Spirit Master world? It was all bullshit."

"After that, our training consisted of physical training in the morning, running twenty laps around the academy, then combat training in the afternoon, going to the Great Soul Arena for spirit battles. According to the academy's graduation requirements, we have to obtain a Silver Spirit Arena Badge to graduate. As a Support Spirit Master, I could only find someone to team up with for spirit battles."

At this point, Ning Rongrong wrapped an arm around Zhu Zhuqing's slender waist. The two girls pressed tightly together, smiling brightly, as she continued:

"Luckily, Zhu Qing was willing to help me. We registered a team called Seven Treasure Spirit Cat. Our record is nineteen battles, twelve wins, and seven losses. For Soul Grandmaster-level battles, our record is pretty good. Now we're the closest sisters."

Zhu Zhuqing seemed a little uncomfortable being held by Ning Rongrong, but she did not struggle. The two young beauties, each with their own distinctive charm, embracing so tightly made for a truly pleasing sight.

Chen Yuan looked a few more times before smiling and saying:

"Zhu Qing, thank you so much for helping Rongrong. I'll have to trouble you for a while longer."

Zhu Zhuqing immediately replied solemnly:

"Don't worry. Rongrong is my good sister, and her support greatly enhances me. I can handle even two enemies with ease. Besides, we don't pursue consecutive victories. When we encounter enemies we can't defeat, we surrender when we should, so we've never suffered any serious injuries..."

At this point, Zhu Zhuqing bit her lower lip. A trace of seriousness appeared on her cool, pretty face as she said:

"Chen Yuan, I know this is presumptuous, but I still want to ask: if you went all out, how strong would you be?"

Seeing how seriously she asked, Chen Yuan thought for a moment before saying:

"If I went all out, I could fight a Soul King!"

Chen Yuan was not lying. If he used every method at his disposal, he could absolutely fight a Soul King-level powerhouse. But if he wanted to leave, then with the Golden Feathered Wings, the Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone, and his Third Soul Skill, Sword Wings Soar, even a Soul Douluo would be unable to do anything to him. Back then, the Peerless Dragon Snake couple had taken the initiative to apologize precisely because they could not do anything to Chen Yuan and did not want to provoke a conflict, offending Chen Yuan, Chen Xin behind him, and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

Even so, Zhu Zhuqing was shocked enough to part her lips. A Soul Elder claiming that he could fight a Soul King—if anyone else said it, she would never believe it. But if Chen Yuan said it, it did not seem impossible.

Her pitch-black eyes reflected Chen Yuan's handsome face, and for a long time, the image within them did not change.

After answering Zhu Zhuqing's question, Chen Yuan fell into thought again. The plot has changed. Yu Xiaogang only cares about Tang San and Xiao Wu, ignoring everyone else. The Shrek Seven Devils haven't become a team either. They only participate in one-on-one and two-on-two spirit battles, so they probably won't encounter the Royal Fight Team again. That means I can only go to the Great Soul Arena myself and keep an eye on the team battles, see when the Royal Fight Team arrives, find an opportunity to get acquainted with Dugu Yan and talk to her about the poisoning. It would be best if I could draw out Dugu Bo. After all, he's the only one who knows the exact location of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

Before long, the three had arrived in Suotuo City. Their speed was not slow, and the distance was not worth mentioning.

After entering the city, the three began wandering around. Just as Ning Rongrong had said, they looked for a restaurant to have a feast.

By sheer coincidence, while they were looking for a restaurant, they ran straight into Dai Mubai, who was heading to a hotel.

Zhu Zhuqing's expression immediately changed, becoming ugly to the extreme. Her pitch-black eyes were filled with disgust, irritation, and revulsion.

That was because Dai Mubai had a pair of twins on each arm. They were both somewhat attractive, especially with their rather mature figures. Both were young women around eighteen or nineteen.

Dai Mubai's expression was ugly as well. He had always wanted to find Zhu Zhuqing when she was alone, but Zhu Zhuqing had formed a team with Ning Rongrong, and the two were inseparable much of the time. After getting beaten up last time, he did not dare provoke her again.

This time, after holding himself back for a long while, he had specifically entered the city to have some fun—only for the two sides to run into each other.
