Ye Feng and the Speed Clan's Relationship

In truth, Ye Feng had long anticipated this Spirit Evolution.

Over the past two months, he had not been idle either.

His Spirit Evolution Progress increased by an average of one point per week. Though not fast, it was very steady.

A few days ago, his Spirit Evolution Progress had already reached 10/10.

It only lacked an opportunity to evolve.

To find that opportunity, Ye Feng sought out Sword Douluo and asked him to be his sparring partner, while also seeing just how strong he was at his limit.

Sword Douluo readily agreed to Ye Feng's request. He also wanted to know how much Ye Feng had grown.

Thus, the two hit it off immediately and began a sparring match at the training grounds.

And just as Ye Feng had expected, his Martial Soul, that hot-tempered fellow, simply could not hold back. With only a little provocation, it flew into a rage and underwent a Bloodline Leap.

His Martial Soul evolved into a Sharp-tailed Swallow.

Besides his Martial Soul, Ye Feng had also gained quite a lot in other areas.

First was his level. Over the span of two months, Ye Feng rose two levels in succession, reaching level fourteen.

He had the Yin Yang Jade Pendant to thank for advancing so quickly. Otherwise, he would not have reached level fourteen so soon.

Then there was the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Meditation Method. With the Yin Yang Jade Pendant's enhancement, its proficiency increased extremely quickly. In just two months, the meditation method broke through Minor Accomplishment and reached Great Accomplishment, only a step away from perfection.

There was also his First Spirit Skill, Acceleration. This spirit skill had now reached Minor Accomplishment. When Ye Feng used it, he had become much more proficient; with a mere thought, he could activate it without even releasing his Martial Soul.

Lastly, there was the newly learned Heart Separation Control. Since entering the beginner stage, in only two months, Heart Separation Control had broken through the Three-Orifice Control Heart and reached the Four-Orifice Constant Heart.

This speed could be called extraordinarily fast.

In the original story, Ning Rongrong was still at the Three-Orifice Control Heart realm when she participated in the Soul Master Tournament. At the beginning, she had not even fully mastered that realm.

And at that time, she was already thirteen or fourteen years old.

Although part of the reason was that Ning Rongrong found Heart Separation Control too difficult to cultivate and had not put much effort into it.

It also showed, from another angle, just how difficult Heart Separation Control was.

For Ye Feng to reach the Four-Orifice Constant Heart realm in just two months was enough to demonstrate how exceptional his talent was.

After sleeping unconscious for an entire day, Ye Feng finally woke up.

The first thing he did upon waking was open his status panel.

Host: Ye Feng

Martial Soul: Ordinary Sharp-tailed Swallow (0/10)

Level: Fourteen

Spirit Skill: Acceleration (Minor Accomplishment)

Skills:

Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Meditation Method (Great Accomplishment)

Heart Separation Control (Four-Orifice Constant Heart)

"Haha, my Martial Soul really evolved." Only after seeing that his Martial Soul had indeed changed did Ye Feng finally feel relieved.

Then he began to sense the changes in his body.

The moment he did, he was even more pleasantly surprised.

After testing it out, he finally understood what it meant to be light as a swallow and swift on his feet.

Ye Feng even felt that his speed in his ordinary state was already comparable to when his Martial Soul had been a sparrow and he used Martial Soul Possession.

"If I activate Martial Soul Possession now, won't my speed be even faster?" Thinking of this, Ye Feng could not wait to test it out.

"Brother Ye Feng, are you awake?" Just then, Ning Rongrong's adorable voice came from outside the door.

"Rongrong?" Ye Feng froze for a moment, then hurriedly opened the door.

When he opened it, little Ning Rongrong was standing prettily at the entrance, peering inside with a worried expression.

As though she could see what was happening inside that way.

"Brother Ye Feng, are you okay?" The instant she saw Ye Feng, Ning Rongrong excitedly threw herself into his arms. Her eyes immediately misted over, and her delicate, tearful appearance made her especially heartbreaking to behold.

"Hehe, Rongrong, I'm fine. Don't worry." Ye Feng felt deeply moved by Ning Rongrong's appearance.

He had not expected Ning Rongrong to care so much about him after they had only known each other for such a short time.

After Ye Feng comforted her, Ning Rongrong quickly shifted her attention and became curious about his Martial Soul.

"Brother Ye Feng, Dad said your Martial Soul evolved into a Sharp-tailed Swallow. Is that true? Hurry and let me see."

"Don't rush. Let me eat something first. I'm starving to death." Ye Feng rubbed his stomach with a wry smile.

He had not eaten for an entire day, and his stomach was practically flat with hunger.

Very soon, at Ye Feng's instruction, the maid Xiao Zhu prepared a lavish meal.

Among it were many highly nourishing foods.

While Ye Feng was wolfing down his food, Ning Fengzhi received word and hurried over with Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo.

"Teacher, Bone Grandpa, Sword Grandpa." Ye Feng set down his bowl and chopsticks and politely greeted them.

"Xiaofeng, no need to be so formal. Go on and eat. Once you're done, let us see how your martial soul has changed." Seeing Ye Feng's rosy complexion, Ning Fengzhi was relieved and smiled gently at him.

"Alright." Ye Feng did not stand on ceremony. He picked up his bowl and chopsticks again and quickened his pace of eating.

Before long, the group arrived at an open training ground.

Ning Fengzhi and the others watched Ye Feng expectantly, waiting for him to summon his martial soul.

Ye Feng did not delay either. His martial soul possessed him in an instant, and his body rapidly transformed.

Silvery-white wings extended from his back, their edges gleaming with silver light that looked incomparably sharp.

A layer of white feathers covered his body, while his hands turned into a pair of sharp talons.

"It really is a Sharp-tailed Swallow. Xiaofeng, test out your current speed," Ning Fengzhi urged, a flash of delight appearing in his eyes.

Ye Feng said nothing. With a spread of his wings, his body shot into the sky and flew far into the distance in an instant.

He was so fast that streaks of afterimages were left in the air.

The next moment, Ye Feng flapped his wings and returned to where he had been standing. If they had not seen it with their own eyes, they might not have even realized he had moved.

"As expected of the Sharp-tailed Swallow, one of the finest martial souls in terms of speed. Very few martial souls can compare to it in that regard," Bone Douluo sighed.

"Xiaofeng, do you know why your martial soul evolved into a Sharp-tailed Swallow?" Ning Fengzhi suddenly asked.

"Ah?" Ye Feng froze.

Why?

Wasn't it all thanks to the system? Could there be another reason?

Ye Feng shook his head in confusion, indicating that he did not know.

"To explain that, we have to start with your mother..."

Ning Fengzhi then began explaining the origins of the Sharp-tailed Swallow to Ye Feng.

"So my martial soul is related to the Speed Clan as well?" Only then did Ye Feng finally understand. His martial soul had not evolved randomly after all; it was connected to his bloodline.

No wonder the system notification had said that his martial soul had undergone a Bloodline Leap. So that was what it meant!

"That's right. As far as I know, your Great Grandfather is the current clan chief of the Speed Clan. Your mother is the youngest daughter of the clan chief's younger brother." Ning Fengzhi revealed the information he had uncovered.
