"Wow! Xiao Zong, that was so satisfying! Let's do it again tomorrow! I want to team up with you for a two-person Soul Fighting Tournament!"

Needless to say, who else could be this battle-hungry besides that hundred-thousand-year-old rabbit?

"Yeah, yeah, I got it," Zu Zong replied helplessly.

After the three of them entered the Great Soul Arena in Suotuo City, they immediately registered for the Soul Fighting Tournament.

Because Ye Lingling was a support-type Soul Master,

Zu Zong participated in the solo Soul Fighting Tournament while also forming the "Lan-Ling Duo" with Ye Lingling for the two-person matches.

In the solo match, Zu Zong's opponent was a level thirty-five Soul Elder with the Black Bear beast Martial Soul and Soul Rings of one white and two yellow. The outcome went without saying. After exchanging only a few moves, Zu Zong used his First Soul Skill. Without even using Fire Poison or high temperatures, he bound the Black Bear Soul Elder into a huge rice dumpling.

While restrained, the Black Bear Soul Elder tried to rely on the superior strength of his Martial Soul to break the Blue Silver Emperor Vine.

But everyone should remember that not only was the Black Bear Soul Elder lower in level than Zu Zong, Zu Zong's Martial Soul was the Blue Silver Emperor, arguably one of the strongest plant-type Martial Souls. It was incredibly tough and also possessed the powerful defensive scales, strength, speed, and resilience of the hundred-year Black-Scaled Poison Python. How could a mere bear Martial Soul possibly break free?

Naturally, Zu Zong won that Soul Fighting Tournament match.

When it came to the two-person match, Zu Zong and Ye Lingling's Lan-Ling Duo faced the Knight Duo, who had never been mentioned in the original work.

The two members of the Knight Duo were not low-level either, both having reached level thirty-eight. The eldest brother's Martial Soul was a Giant Axe, with three yellow Soul Rings. Second Brother's Martial Soul was an exquisite iron shield, with one white and two yellow Soul Rings. One attacked and one defended, making them extremely troublesome. They had even achieved an impressive seven-match winning streak in the Soul Fighting Arena.

The two members of the Knight Duo had clearly watched Zu Zong's previous matches. The moment they stepped onto the stage, their expressions became especially grave. Zu Zong was very strong; the fact that he had effortlessly subdued a strong attack-type Soul Master of the same level with just his First Soul Skill was enough to prove it.

Their strategy was to proceed steadily, avoid fighting Zu Zong too much, and focus their attacks on Ye Lingling, the support-type Soul Master.

However, how could Zu Zong fail to see through that? Rather than responding to every move as usual, he took the initiative with an aggressive offensive approach.

His First Soul Skill protected Ye Lingling while sealing off the Knight Duo's attack routes. Even when the axe-wielding Soul Master cut through the scale-covered Blue Silver Emperor Vines, more Blue Silver Emperor Vines quickly surged forward to fill the gap.

In the end, the shield-wielding Soul Master had to use his Third Soul SkillGolden Bell Shield, forming a huge Soul Power barrier around the two of them. Only then did they manage to withstand Zu Zong's Poison Dragon Entanglement.

Zu Zong stopped holding back as well. This was the perfect chance to test the power of his Second Soul SkillBlue Silver Blade.

A thousand-year Soul Skill truly was a thousand-year Soul Skill. Even though the shield Soul Master's defensive Soul Skill was close to the thousand-year level, it was still pierced by the Blue Silver Blade, and the Knight Duo lost the match.

As for Xiao Wu, she also wanted to take part in the two-person Soul Fighting Tournament, but without a teammate, she could only enter the solo matches. Fortunately, her luck was good. Her opponent was about as strong as she was, and after dozens of exchanges, she won with her unique Third Soul SkillTeleport.

The three of them left the Great Soul Arena in Suotuo City and strolled down the city streets toward the Rose Hotel.

Along the way, Ye Lingling kept glancing at Zu Zong from time to time, looking as though she wanted to say something but hesitated.

With his keen senses, Zu Zong naturally noticed. He looked at Ye Lingling and asked, "Lingling, is something wrong?"

"I..."

Zu Zong smiled. "We're classmates, and we're teammates on the same squad. For the next few years, we'll be companions relying on one another through life and death. There's no need to be so reserved."

Although Xiao Wu could be a little scatterbrained, she genuinely considered Ye Lingling a good friend and cared about her. "Lingling, just say it! You don't need to be polite with Xiao Zong. If you need his help but are too embarrassed to ask, just come to me, Xiao Wu. I'll agree for him!"

As she spoke, Xiao Wu patted her modestly developed chest. Then she exchanged a look with Zu Zong. The difference was that Xiao Wu's gaze said, You have to agree whether you want to or not, while Zu Zong was simply rolling his eyes.

Zu Zong rolled his eyes. Who are you to me? You're agreeing on my behalf already?

Xiao Wu blushed. I-I'm your girlfriend.

Zu Zong pretended to be dissatisfied. Who would like an old rabbit like you?

Xiao Wu got angry. I don't care. Are you agreeing or not?

Zu Zong grinned slyly. Then what if Ye Lingling asks me to marry her? Would you agree to that too?

Xiao Wu's face went pale. ...

Ye Lingling took a deep breath, nodded, and looked at Zu Zong seriously. "Zu Zong, today in the Soul Fighting Tournament, I saw that you used many powerful close-combat techniques and superb Soul Power control without even using your Martial Soul. I'm a support-type Soul Master and have no offensive power. I was wondering if you could..."

At that point, Ye Lingling lowered her head and clutched the hem of her skirt with both hands. Unlike her usual coolness, she looked just like a Young Girl who had done something wrong.

Hearing this, Xiao Wu casually patted Ye Lingling's soft, boneless shoulder and chuckled. "Hehe, Lingling, that's no big deal. If you wanted to learn, you should've said so earlier!"

As she spoke, Xiao Wu leaned close to Ye Lingling's ear and whispered, "I'll tell you a secret! Besides his powerful martial arts, Xiao Zong also knows some sword techniques, Hidden Weapons, and throwing techniques. On top of that, he can practically learn someone else's combat techniques after seeing them just once! Turning you into a support-type Soul Master with offensive power won't be a problem!"

Zu Zong thought, Hey, hey, that isn't much of a secret. I heard every word!

Hearing Xiao Wu's words, Ye Lingling looked surprised. She turned to Xiao Wu and asked, "Then hasn't Zu Zong taught you?"

She had also seen Xiao Wu's wide-open fighting style, which did not seem to carry any trace of Zu Zong's methods. Thus, she guessed that Zu Zong's techniques might be secret teachings not passed on lightly.

Ye Lingling's question abruptly cut off Xiao Wu's laughter. She could hardly tell the other girl that she had been too lazy to learn, could she?

So she stammered, "I-I have Supple Skill. Right! I have Supple Skill, so I don't need to learn..."

Zu Zong did not expose Xiao Wu's painfully obvious lie. He looked at Ye Lingling seriously. "I can teach you, but it'll be very hard. Can you persevere?"

"Mm!"

Not long after, the three of them finally arrived at the entrance of the Rose Hotel.

Suddenly, Zu Zong sensed that something was following behind him. It had not been obvious earlier, so he had not paid it much mind, especially since he had not sensed any hostility.

But just now, Zu Zong had clearly felt the other party's Soul Power flare up. It was not exactly killing intent, but that eager hostility was very obvious.

After watching Xiao Wu and Ye Lingling enter the Rose Hotel, Zu Zong turned and walked out through the entrance.

Entering a small alleyway, he said calmly, "You've followed me for so long. Come out!"

The instant his words fell, a black figure rushed straight at him. It moved extremely fast, aiming directly at Zu Zong's crotch.

The move gave Zu Zong quite a fright. He barely dodged the black figure's attack with a backward flip. "Damn it, buddy, are you trying to make me lose the ability to have children?!"

Zu Zong's words did not make the other party stop. Instead, her attacks became even sharper.

This time, Zu Zong saw clearly. His opponent was a woman—and a remarkably well-endowed one. He had seen her today.

Putting away his kunai, Zu Zong asked, "Are you Zhu Zhuqing?"
