Listening to Ye Xi's words and looking at the several Gold Soul Coins on the table, Zhong Meng took a deep breath, then solemnly stepped before Ye Xi and bowed respectfully.

"Zhong Meng, thank you, Miss."

"Thank you so much for pulling me out of my suffering, Miss."

Zhong Meng's eyes were filled with emotion. Only after bowing did she reach out and pick up the Gold Soul Coins on the table.

"Go do as I said."

Ye Xi waved her hand dismissively, signaling that Zhong Meng could leave.

After receiving Ye Xi's signal, Zhong Meng left the Great Hall without hesitation.

"Xiao Xi, if there's nothing else, I'll return to Tiandou Imperial Palace first."

Xue Qinghe rose from his seat and walked straight over to Ye Xi, gently stroking her hair.

"Big Sister, can you stop making gestures like that while wearing Xue Qinghe's face?"

"It feels really awkward."

Ye Xi looked at Xue Qinghe before her, her voice utterly serious.

Hearing this, Xue Qinghe's hand paused involuntarily as it stroked Ye Xi's hair, but it soon returned to normal. A smile bloomed across his refined face.

"Mm, now that you mention it, it does seem a little strange."

"I won't do such things while wearing Xue Qinghe's face in the future."

"Alright, I'll head back to Tiandou Imperial Palace first."

With that, Xue Qinghe started toward the outside of the Mansion.

Watching Xue Qinghe leave, Ye Xi turned her Sapphire Blue eyes toward the silent Ling Yuan Elder.

"Ling Yuan Elder, go call Sister Tian Yao."

"Let's go take a look at the Tiandou Great Soul Arena."

Resting her head against her hand, Ye Xi spoke in a gentle voice.

"Alright, Miss."

"I'll go call Miss Tian Yao right away."

Ling Yuan Elder agreed and walked out of the room toward Tian Yao's room.

Before long, Ye Xi saw Tian Yao rush into the Great Hall in a flurry.

"Second Young Lady, let's go."

"Let's take a look at the Tiandou Great Soul Arena and participate in a few soul battles while we're there."

Tian Yao wore a smile, her voice brimming with delight.

"Mm, let's go."

Ye Xi rose from her seat, stretched her waist, and headed outside the Great Hall.

Ling Yuan Elder followed beside Ye Xi with a smile on her face.

Ling Yuan Elder continued to act as their bodyguard, silently following behind the two of them.

Before long, the group arrived before a grand building. The Tiandou Great Soul Arena was oval in shape and roughly one hundred and twenty meters tall. It contained one main Soul Battle Stage and twenty-four subsidiary Soul Battle Stages, capable of accommodating sixty thousand people at once.

After entering the Tiandou Great Soul Arena, Ye Xi rented a VIP Room.

The VIP Room had an excellent view, allowing them to clearly see everything happening on the Soul Battle Stage. Dedicated staff were also available to provide any necessary services.

"Miss, these are the drinks and Pastries provided by our arena. If you have any other needs, please let me know."

After placing the drinks and Pastries before Ye Xi, Tian Yao, and Ling Yuan Elder, the staff member silently retreated to the doorway.

"Alright, thank you."

After politely thanking them, Ye Xi picked up a piece of pastry and slowly tasted it.

While enjoying the pastry, Ye Xi carefully watched the match on the Soul Battle Stage.

On the Soul Battle Stage, two two-ring Soul Grand Masters were fighting each other. Both were assault-type soul masters, and every strike was a solid blow of fist against flesh, or a clash between soul skills.

"The gap between these two seems a little large."

Watching the battle on the Soul Battle Stage, Tian Yao spoke thoughtfully.

"That's normal."

"To be precise, the two aren't evenly matched."

"The one with the upper hand has already reached level thirty Soul Power, but he hasn't attached his Third Soul Ring yet. The one at a disadvantage has only just become a Soul Grandmaster."

Ling Yuan Elder glanced at the scene below, her voice calm.

"Then why hasn't he attached his Third Soul Ring?"

"If he did, wouldn't he be able to participate in Soul Elder-level soul battle matches?"

Tian Yao looked at Ling Yuan Elder with confusion.

"It was probably to make money."

"As long as he didn't attach his Third Soul Ring, with his strength, among Soul Grand Masters, he was basically impossible to lose unless he encountered one of the very best."

"But if he attached his Third Soul Ring, he could only participate in Soul Elder-level soul battles. Having only just entered the Soul Elder rank, his chances of winning wouldn't be very high."

Ye Xi watched the matches below as she spoke unhurriedly.

"So that's how it is."

After Tian Yao nodded lightly, she turned her gaze back to the Soul Battle Stage and continued watching the match.

"Please bring us two registration forms. We want to participate in the soul battles."

Ye Xi looked toward the staff member standing by the door.

"Certainly. Please wait a moment."

The staff member gave a slight bow, then left the VIP Room.

Ye Xi closed her eyes and began resting.

About ten minutes later, the staff member returned with two registration forms.

"Young Misses, you only need to fill in your registration details truthfully, along with your codenames."

The staff member placed the two registration forms before Ye Xi and Tian Yao.

Looking at the forms before them, Ye Xi and Tian Yao immediately began filling them out.

After writing down their codenames, ages, martial souls, and other information, they handed the forms to the staff member.

The staff member accepted the forms and gave them a quick look. Surprise appeared in his eyes. He had not expected these two young girls to both be three-ringed Soul Elders.

Their codenames were Death God and Golden Scale.

Death God was Ye Xi's codename, while Golden Scale was Tian Yao's.

"Please wait a moment."

"I'll have two Iron Soul Badges delivered to you shortly."

The staff member wore a professional smile. After speaking, he left the VIP Room.

"We'll be able to take part in the soul battles soon."

Tian Yao leaned back in her chair, looking toward the Soul Battle Stage below with eager anticipation.

Unlike Tian Yao's eagerness, Ye Xi calmly ate pastries while watching the soul battles with an even gaze.

Ling Yuan, meanwhile, closed her eyes in boredom. She had no interest whatsoever in such matches.

After all, as a Titled Douluo, she stood at the very peak of the continent's pyramid.

Before long, the staff member returned to the VIP Room with two Iron Soul Badges.

"Young Misses, these are your Iron Soul Badges."

The staff member came before Ye Xi and Tian Yao and handed the badges to them.

"Alright, thank you."

After accepting the badges, Ye Xi and Tian Yao quietly waited for the matches to begin.
