There's News

"Ye Feng?"

An aged voice suddenly came from behind Ye Feng.

Ye Feng turned around and saw the old man with a cane leaning on him. His expression was overjoyed. He walked happily to the old man's side and called out, "Grandpa Jack."

The visitor was none other than Old Jack of Holy Soul Village who had raised Ye Feng.

"Good boy. You've grown taller again this year."

Old Jack reached out, trying to touch Ye Feng's head. He realized that, bent over, he couldn't reach Ye Feng's head at all.

Ye Feng smiled slightly, lowered his head slightly, and let Old Jack touch him.

Old Jack didn't come alone; he arrived by carriage. Old Jack had been talking about Soul Master his whole life, so Ye Feng deliberately hired someone to go to Holy Soul Village and bring him to Old Jack Heaven Dou City to watch the competition.

"Hello, Grandpa Jack," Xiao Wu greeted with a smile.

"Yes, Xiao Wu has grown taller and more beautiful." Old Jack smiled, looking at Xiao Wu with kindness.

In the years before that, Xiao Wu and Ye Feng would always return to Holy Soul Village to celebrate holidays with Old Jack, unless there was something special going on.

Although Ye Feng knew that he had the bloodline of the Nine Heart Hibiscus Family, for Ye Feng, Holy Soul Village was his home in this world.

"Grandpa Jack," Tang San called out.

"Xiao San, it's been so many years since I've seen you. Have you found your father?" Old Jack asked with concern.

"Not yet." Tang San shook his head.

"Don't worry. We'll find it eventually," Old Jack comforted him.

"Hello, Grandpa Jack," Ning Rongrong greeted.

"Yes, Rong Rong. We meet again." Old Jack nodded, looking at Ning Rongrong with kindness.

During the previous holiday, Ye Feng took Xiao Wu back to Holy Soul Village. Ning Rongrong insisted on going back to the village with Ye Feng. Therefore, Ning Rongrong and Old Jack had met once before.

Liu Erlong walked up to Old Jack. She already knew from Ye Feng that Ye Feng's parents were deceased. Ye Feng Ye Feng's father's origins were unknown, and his mother was the younger sister of the current Clan Chief of the Nine Heart Hibiscus Family. Old Jack had raised Ye Feng from a young age. She introduced herself, "Hello, Grandpa Jack, my name is Liu Erlong. I am... I am Ye Feng's wife."

"Wife?" Old Jack was stunned, staring blankly at Ye Feng, and asked, "Ye Feng, you're married?"

"Grandpa Jack, don't listen to her nonsense. It's not even close to happening yet!" Ye Feng explained.

"Ye Feng, do you really think you can get rid of me in this lifetime? Humph, don't even think about it." Liu Erlong, who dared to love and hate, retorted to Ye Feng without any hesitation.

Old Jack looked Liu Erlong up and down and murmured, "Hmm. She's a good girl. Ye Feng, you mustn't bully her."

"No way! She's the one who always bullies me," Ye Feng complained.

"You little rascal. You've been cunning since you were a kid. You're the one who bullies others; I've never seen anyone manage to bully you," Old Jack scolded.

Upon hearing Old Jack's words, Liu Erlong felt incredibly proud.

"Alright, Grandpa Jack. Let's go in." Ye Feng Old Jack would continue to expose his past, led Old Jack into the Great Soul Arena.

The vast, open square was surrounded by cheering crowds. On the grandstand, decorated in a noble gold theme, sat three people.

The one in the center wore a long, golden-red robe and Golden Diamond Radiant Heaven Crown. His face was like the Gu Yue, and he appeared slightly more injured than Prince Xue Xing. His features also bore a resemblance to Prince Xue Xing.

He was none other than His Majesty Xue Ye, the Emperor of the Heaven Dou Empire.

The person sitting to Xue Ye's right is Ning Fengzhi, the sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. As for the person to Xue Ye's left, it must be Salas, the Platinum Bishop of Holy Temple Spirit Hall in Heaven Dou City.

It's worth mentioning that Salas wields real power within the Spirit Hall. He is one of the four Platinum Bishop of the Spirit Hall.

"I, Xue Ye, Emperor of the Heaven Dou Empire, on behalf of the Heaven Dou Empire and the organizers of this competition, hereby declare the Pan-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament open."

The first day of the competition was just the opening ceremony. Xue Ye gave the opening speech. Ning Fengzhi then spoke, and finally, Platinum Bishop Salas conducted the draw for the first round of the Preliminary Competition.

"In the first round of the Preliminary Competition, Canghui Academy will face Purple Star Academy."

"In the first round of the Preliminary Competition, Auckland Academy will face Flame Radiance Academy."

"In the first round of the Preliminary Competition, the Heaven Dou Royal Academy Second Team will face off against the Shrek Academy."

As expected, Shrek Academy's opponent in the first round was once again the second team of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

"The third match of the first round of the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Elite Tournament Preliminary Competition will be between the Heaven Dou Royal Academy Second Team and the Shrek Academy Team."

"Go Shrek!"

"Is this Shrek Academy related to Shrek Real Estate?"

"They're all called Shrek. Each major sect also has its own academy. I think this Shrek Academy is probably an academy under Shrek Real Estate. Good luck, Shrek Academy! You bought the cheapest house. Keep it up, I believe in you!"

When the host finished speaking, the storyline changed. Most of the common people did not support the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, but instead supported Shrek Academy.

"You bunch of toads! Cut back on oil!"

This scene delighted Shrek Academy. Of course, those nobles and wealthy merchants whose business had been taken by Shrek Real Estate, especially those with conflicting interests with Shrek Real Estate, began to slander Shrek Academy. Some shouted "a bunch of toads," while others shouted "reduce oil!"

Both sides bowed.

Apart from Ye Feng, Tai Long, Jing Ling, Jiang Zhu, Ma Hongjun, Oscar, and Ning Rongrong all exchanged greetings with the second team of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

"Countdown to the match: three, two, one. The third match of the first round of the Preliminary Competition is officially starting."

As the referee's voice faded, the entire second team of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy summoned their Martial Soul. In contrast, only Ye Feng from the Shrek team summoned his Martial Soul.

"Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring!"

"The Four Rings of the eternal era!"

"Five Soul Ring! Soul King!"

Ye Feng extended his left hand, and a crystal-like Nine Heart Profound Tang appeared in his palm. The five Soul Ring that appeared beneath his feet stunned the entire audience. Even His Your Majesty Xue Ye and Bishop Salas, seated on the platform, were taken aback. Ye Feng's five Soul Ring were two yellow, one purple, and two black.

Third Soul Skill: Heavenly Wolf Transformation

The second team of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, wary of Ye Feng's Soul King strength, unleashed their Soul Skill and launched an attack on Ye Feng.

First Soul Skill: Ice Seal

With a thought, Ye Feng unleashed his Soul Skill instantly. All seven members of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy Second Team were Ice Seal solid.

call out

Ye Feng stomped his foot, moving with lightning speed. With a single kick, he knocked all seven members of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy Second Team, who were still under the control of the Ice Seal, off the stage.

From then on, the game had been going on for less than ten seconds.

"Announce the results," Ye Feng urged.

The host realized what was happening and announced, "Shrek Academy wins the third match of the first round of the Preliminary Competition."

After the match, Ye Feng and the Shrek Academy students walked out of the Great Soul Arena. At the entrance, they encountered Ning Fengzhi, the sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

"Ye Feng, I've found out the information you asked me to. There's someone who might know who killed your parents."
