Dai Mubai, King of Understanding

"Not bad. That's more like it."

Xia Tianling wore a wicked grin as he channeled his Soul Power and charged forward.

His eyes had already turned into golden vertical pupils. Faint lightning power coiled around his fists, and the Dragon Might radiating from his body surged.

With the White Tiger Vajra Transformation activated, Dai Mubai felt as though he was not facing a Soul Master, but an unparalleled Dragon King. Even his top-tier White Tiger Martial Soul seemed somewhat suppressed.

But he was already riding a tiger and couldn't get off. He gritted his teeth and charged anyway.

The moment Xia Tianling released his Dragon Might without holding back, Xiao Wu had already hidden behind Tang San, clutching Third Brother's clothes tightly as her entire body trembled in fright.

Tang San hurriedly comforted her. "Xiao Wu? What's wrong?"

Xiao Wu said shakily, "Third Brother, I... I'm scared. The aura coming from Brother Ling makes me feel terrified."

Xia Tianling caught sight of this from the corner of his eye and secretly laughed.

Definitely a little rabbit. So timid.

A fight that demanded Dai Mubai's full concentration was nothing more than a chance for him to vent.

He had not been serious before. He had merely been luring Dai Mubai into using his full strength. It would not be any fun if it ended too early.

His heavy fist, wrapped in Dragon Might, smashed straight through Dai Mubai's defense and struck him squarely on his tiger-like jaw.

The tall and burly Dai Mubai was left dazed by Xia Tianling's rising dragon punch.

Before he could recover, Xia Tianling's second punch had already arrived. It struck his stomach and bent him over in a single blow.

Third punch, fourth punch, elbow strike, knee strike, headbutt.

There were no flashy soul skills, only exceedingly practical close-quarters Combat Skills. Punch after punch rained down, leaving Dai Mubai utterly unable to fight back.

What a joke. These were special forces Combat Skills that Xia Tianling had specifically exchanged for with Fate Power.

There were no fancy moves, only the simplest and most direct techniques, delivering the heaviest blows to the enemy.

Several Minutes later, Dai Mubai had been beaten until his White Tiger Vajra Transformation was forcibly dispelled. With two black eyes, he leaned against the wall without a shred of dignity.

"D-Don't, don't hit me anymore. I surrender." Dai Mubai groaned miserably and hurriedly begged for mercy. This time, he had completely disgraced himself.

What kind of monster is this? He didn't even use his Martial Soul, yet his physical strength alone beat me back again and again.

And this guy is basically like some lightning hedgehog soul beast. Every place he hits me gets shocked afterward. Seriously...

Though Dai Mubai looked miserable, with his shirt torn apart and bruises covering his body, they were all superficial injuries. With his physique, he would recover on his own in a couple of days.

"You surrender?"

Xia Tianling summoned some Water Element to wash the blood from his hands, then took out a handkerchief and wiped them clean.

"I surrender, I surrender. You can have the room. Manager Wang, put the damages on my tab." Dai Mubai admitted it readily. Although he was lecherous and domineering, he could still accept defeat. He would not deny a debt.

He stretched his sore body and looked at the group with a grimace. "I think we'll be seeing each other again soon. You're going to apply to Shrek Academy too, right? If anyone gives you trouble, tell them the name Evil-Eyed White Tiger Dai Mubai."

As soon as he finished speaking, the twin sisters hurried over and supported one of Dai Mubai's arms each. The three were about to leave.

Suddenly, a cold snort caught Dai Mubai's attention.

Dai Mubai turned back in confusion. The sound had come from a curvaceous young woman.

However, she had clenched her fists, looking as though she wanted to devour him alive. Her icy temperament paired with that expression was practically tailored to Dai Mubai's operating system.

Having just been beaten up, Dai Mubai merely assumed that the girl had a fiery temper and was understandably angry that he had taken her room. He did not think much else of it. Instead, he gave Xia Tianling, who had just finished washing his hands, a look that all men understood.

Perhaps because it was rare for him to encounter an opponent around his own age, he foolishly added another sentence.

"Brother, you're a lucky man! This girl is seriously top-notch. Looks like we're kindred spirits. Come find me sometime, and I'll take you to find even better ones." With that, he left without looking back.

Wonderful!

Zhu Zhuqing could no longer suppress the fury in her heart. She immediately activated Martial Soul Possession and was about to rush out to fight Dai Mubai to the death.

"Dai Mubai, you bastard! I'm going to kill you!"

She had traveled all the way to the Heavenly Dou Empire just to find a lustful young master whose mind was stuffed full of women?

This was the man she was betrothed to? This piece of trash?

Dai Mubai, who had already walked some distance away, naturally ignored her. He only assumed the girl was hot-tempered and had no idea what he had missed.

Xia Tianling reacted quickly and grabbed Zhu Zhuqing, but the leather outfit she wore was extremely smooth, leaving nowhere to get a firm hold. He could only loosely press down on her shoulders.

Tang San saw Elder Brother's predicament and quickly summoned Blue Silver Grass, lightly restraining Zhu Zhuqing.

"Zhuqing, calm down! Calm down!"

After struggling fruitlessly for a while, Zhu Zhuqing gradually calmed down.

The rage filling her heart had not vanished. It had merely been buried deep within again, and the next time it was touched, it would erupt even more violently.

Her desire to grow stronger and her disappointment in Dai Mubai could no longer be suppressed. Zhu Zhuqing finally firmed up her resolve and spoke solemnly to Xia Tianling.

"I want to become stronger. I'll go with you!"

Xia Tianling smiled and nodded, signaling Tang San to remove the Blue Silver Grass restraints.

Hehe, plan successful. Kitten +1.

"No problem."

After Tang San released his Blue Silver Grass, Zhu Zhuqing, now calm again, stood with blazing determination in her eyes.

This time, she would not only work hard to defeat her sister—she would personally stomp this self-indulgent Young Master Dai beneath her feet as well!

Only after Xia Tianling withdrew his Dragon Might did the formerly lively Xiao Wu poke her head out from behind Tang San, nervously looking ahead.

"What's wrong, Little Rabbit? Am I that scary?" Xia Tianling said with a smile.

"Don't call me Little Rabbit! I-I feel like you might eat me at any moment." Xiao Wu retorted, then muttered timidly.

"Eat you? Little San wouldn't allow that, right?" He winked in Tang San's direction.

Tang San smiled helplessly. "Naturally. Xiao Wu is my little sister."

"Of course, there are also Da Ming and Er Ming."

Xiao Wu:!!!!!!!

"Y-You know Da Ming and Er Ming?" Xiao Wu's eyes widened. "Could it be that you..."

"As you can see."

Tang San, standing nearby, felt deeply puzzled. "Xiao Wu, Brother Ling, what are you two talking in riddles about? And who are Da Ming and Er Ming?"

"Da Ming and Er Ming are Xiao Wu's family. They won't be easy to get past. You'll learn about these matters later." Xia Tianling did not expose Xiao Wu's identity. Tang San would discover it himself once his Purple Demon Eyes broke through.

"Alright." Tang San did not press further.

However, he could also guess that Xiao Wu's background was probably not simple, much like his own alcoholic father, Tang Hao.

The two had deliberately omitted some crucial information from their conversation. What exactly was it?

You too? What did that mean?

Could Xiao Wu be a transmigrator like me? That shouldn't be the case. She doesn't seem to have memories from a past life. She's simply an innocent, lively child.

What exactly are you hiding from me?

But forget it. Since Brother Ling said I would learn later, I'll wait patiently. It isn't that important anyway.
