Luo Ying, Spirit Duel

Ao Yue is actually Oscar, or rather, Oscar's clone. However, this clone is currently only at level 45, and it was created when Oscar was at level 45.

The reason for letting this clone appear in Spirit City was to occasionally showcase the strength of the younger generation of their Spiritual Jade Sword Sect. After all, it would be unreasonable for such a large force as Spiritual Jade Sword Sect to lack some geniuses among its younger generation.

Of course, most importantly, Oscar also wanted to take this opportunity to get in touch with Spirit City, after all, it is the holy land of Soul Master and the core of the Spirit Hall.

Oscar invited Hu Liena and the other two to sit in a private room. A sumptuous feast of Fruit Tea was served. Oscar picked up a piece of pastry and slowly put it into his mouth. "Saintess Maiden, please try our Sword Sect's unique Green Bamboo Cake."

Seeing Oscar take a bite, Hu Liena smiled and stretched out her slender hand, also picking up a piece of green pastry. After taking a small bite with her cherry lips, her eyes lit up.

"This taste... is refreshing and sweet, melts in your mouth, and has a hint of bamboo fragrance in the aftertaste. It is indeed a top-quality pastry," Hu Liena praised as she ate it in small bites.

Hearing Hu Liena's praise, Oscar smiled slightly, "It seems that Your Saintess Hall is indeed a person of good taste, able to taste the flavor in just one bite."

Xie Yue and Yan, who were standing nearby, also started eating. Xie Yue was rather elegant, while Yan was a bit... rough.

Especially upon hearing Hu Liena's praise, Yan picked up a piece, threw it into his mouth, and swallowed it whole, like Pigsy eating a ginseng fruit.

Oscar didn't care about any of that, but seeing Yan's expression, Oscar couldn't resist teasing him a little.

After all, it's rare to find someone with Yan's talent and such a pure mind.

Furthermore, since Oscar is destined to have conflicts of interest with the Spirit Hall in the future, there's no need to care about Yan's feelings.

Of course, if Hu Liena and Xie Yue are worthy of being close friends, Oscar wouldn't mind using his clone Ao Yue, to become friends with them.

After all, that's how the world is: there are no permanent enemies, only permanent interests.

After enjoying the fruits and pastries, Oscar slowly rose and said softly to Hu Liena, "Your Saintess Hall, since everyone has come with a mission today, I won't waste any more time. Besides, I'd also like to experience the strength of the Spirit Hall Golden Generation. How about we go to the Training Ground for a bit?"

Hu Liena's smile remained unchanged upon hearing this, but before she could reply, Yan spoke up, "I've been meaning to do this for a while now, I'll fight alongside you this time!"

Hearing this, Hu Liena turned and glared at Yan before explaining to Oscar, "Brother Ao Yue, don't mind him, Yan has always been straightforward."

Oscar didn't even glance at Yan, but smiled at Hu Liena and replied, "I understand. After all, not everyone is as understanding as Her Saintess Hall and the Xie Yue Brothers."

Hearing these words, Yan glared angrily at Oscar: "You!"

But before he could react, Hu Liena stopped him. "Yan! We're here to make friends today. If you keep acting like this, you should go back."

Upon hearing this, Yan took a deep breath and stopped lashing out at Oscar, instead silently watching Oscar from the side.

Oscar waved his hand. "It's alright. It's a good thing that young people are straightforward. After all, we Soul Master should be fearless in order to move forward."

Oscar said, then turned and led the three of them toward the Training Ground.

Escort agencies also have Training Ground. After all, there are many people in escort agencies nowadays, and most of them are Soul Master. Naturally, there needs to be a place for them to train and relax.

Moreover, this place is Spirit City, known as the holy land of Soul Master, so the escort agency not only has Training Ground, but it is also quite large, even large enough for two Soul Saint level experts to spar in Soul Fighting.

Upon arriving at the Training Ground, one finds many Soul Master already training and sparring, as they don't need to escort the bodyguards all the time.

When they saw Ao Yue, they all greeted him with a smile and respect, "Young Master Yue..."

Oscar responded to each of them, and introduced them as follows, "These three are young talents from the Spirit Hall. They are visiting the escort agency today. I will have a friendly sparring match with them later. If you have time, you are welcome to come and support them."

Upon hearing this, some people shouted back, "Finally, we can see Yue Shao make a move again! It is said that Yue Shao has received personal instruction from Elder 'Ice Sword'. Today we can broaden our horizons once again!"

Hearing these comments, Hu Liena and Xie Yue exchanged a glance, each seeing in the other's eyes a meaning only they themselves understood.

Yan's thinking was simpler. What Ice Sword? It was just a cheap trick. Didn't they know that fire counters ice? Oscar came to the Spirit Dueling Platform in the center of the Training Ground and said to Hu Liena and the other two, "Your Saintess Hall, please wait a moment. Soul Skill are blind. I'll go ask Sister Luo Ying to take charge."

Luo Ying is a stunningly beautiful woman in her forties who still retains her charm. She was a free Soul Master whom Gai Yue and Dugu Bo met when they were recruiting Soul Master.

Luo Ying's talent is quite good; she reached the Soul Saint level in her forties and is now one of the main personnel guarding the Lingyu Escort Agency. (Note) Hu Liena and the other two nodded, and Oscar went into the attic. Soon, a still-charming beauty followed Oscar out. She knew that the Golden Generation of the Spirit Hall was coming to "challenge" them today, but Gai Yue didn't say anything, just letting Oscar handle it himself, so she simply pretended not to see it.

Now that Oscar has come to her personally, she naturally still shows up.

Before leaving, Luo Ying asked Oscar in a low voice, her gentle voice soft. "Xiao Yue, I heard that the three Golden Generation of the Spirit Hall this year are the three most talented people in history, and that little Saintess is most skilled in Charm techniques. Are you confident?"

Hearing Luo Ying's concern, Oscar smiled slightly, "Don't worry, Sister Luo Ying. Don't you know my strength? Even a beauty like you can't seduce me, so why would I be afraid of a little fox?"

Hearing this, Luo Ying gave Oscar a flirtatious look and said, "You brat! It's good that you're confident, but don't go too far. After all, this is the territory of the Spirit Hall."

Oscar smiled and nodded, his long black hair flowing like a curtain, leaving only a tall and handsome silhouette for Luo Ying: "I understand."

Luo Ying looked at Oscar's confident look and shook her head. She couldn't help but think in her heart, "This kid is really just like the escort master (the host)!" (Note) Oscar and Luo Ying came to the main fighting stage, and Luo Ying said calmly, "My name is Luo Ying, and I am the deputy host of the Lingyu Escort Agency and Lingyu Restaurant stationed in Wuhun City. Since you are going to compete with Xiao Yue today, let me be the referee."

Upon hearing this, Hu Liena and the other two bowed respectfully to Luo Ying, after all, she was the second most powerful person in charge of the Lingyu Escort Agency stationed in Spirit City.

"Hu Liena (Xie Yue) (Yan) of the Spirit Hall greets Senior Luo Ying."

Luo Ying waved her hand, and her gentle voice rang out. "No need for formalities. It's common for young people like you to make friends through martial arts. Regardless of who wins or loses today, let's just consider it a chance to make friends."

Upon hearing this, Hu Liena responded with equally alluring eyes, seemingly wanting to compete with Luo Ying to see who was more charming.

However, although Hu Liena Charm alluring, she is not as experienced as Luo Ying. If we really talk about attractiveness, apart from Yan, who is a simp, Luo Ying, this mature woman, is far superior to Hu Liena.

It was precisely because of this that Oscar remained calm and composed when he met Hu Liena, as if he were just seeing an ordinary person, and was not affected by her natural Charm at all, despite having such a succubus-like Eldest Sister around.

Hu Liena's voice rang out. "That's exactly what we were thinking too. We've long heard that the Sword Sect has a genius who is invincible among his peers in the Great Soul Arena of Spirit City. Seeing him today, Brother Ao Yue is indeed extraordinary! We hope he won't disappoint us later."

Hearing this, Luo Ying silently looked at Oscar, Oscar smiled helplessly, "Of course, since Her Highness the Saintess Hall, Ao Yue will naturally do my best to satisfy Saintess Hall."

However, Yan seemed to have left his brain at home, and he carelessly jumped onto the Spirit Dueling Platform: "Hey, I'll fight you in the first match. If you can't even beat me, you shouldn't even think about hitting on Nana."

In Yan's eyes, apart from himself and Hu Liena's older brother Xie Yue, any man who has intimate actions or even words with Hu Liena is someone who has ulterior motives towards Hu Liena.

After all, in his opinion, no one could resist Hu Liena's charm. Although... when Yan saw Luo Ying just now, he was momentarily dazed, in his heart, Hu Liena was the most beautiful.

Therefore, he wanted to teach Ao Yue a lesson, since not just anyone could get close to his Nana.

This time, Hu Liena did not stop Yan. Instead, she apologized to Oscar, saying, "Brother Ao Yue, Yan is just like this. Sometimes we can't persuade him. Why don't you... hit him down?"

Upon hearing this, Oscar raised an eyebrow. He had thought to himself, "Even though Hu Liena is a love-obsessed character in the original story, she is still Saintess of the Spirit Hall, so she does have some brains."

It wasn't that she couldn't persuade Yan; it was simply because she knew her Martial Soul was Ice Attribute, allowing Yan, who possessed both fire and earth attributes, to gain the upper hand.

However... Oscar, with his level 45 strength, is invincible among his peers in the Great Soul Arena Spirit City, a holy land for Soul Master, so he's not so easy to deal with.

Oscar smiled slightly, "Okay."

Oscar then leaped up, landing gracefully opposite Yan like a celestial being. His long black hair swayed, and his robe embroidered with green bamboo fluttered slightly. He looked at Yan with extraordinary grace.

"Since you want to fight me, I'll grant your wish. But if you lose, I won't be so lenient with you anymore." Oscar said, turning to look at Hu Liena: "After all, I don't have Her Saintess Hall to be so kind to an impolite person."

Upon hearing this, Yan flew into a rage. "Lose? I, Yan, have never even known how to write the word 'lose' in my entire life!"

Just then, Luo Ying's seductive voice rang in their ears. "Alright, arguing won't show your manliness. Since neither of you is willing to admit defeat, let's settle things with strength."

"Before the Soul Fighting begins, you will have one minute to release and demonstrate your Martial Soul. After one minute, the Soul Fighting will officially begin."

As she spoke, Luo Ying paused, "I suppose I don't need to explain the rules of the Soul Fighting Competition again?"

Upon hearing this, Oscar and Yan nodded. Then, Yan took a step forward, Lie Yan surging around his body. The release of these Lie Yan even made the surrounding air hotter.

Flames instantly Entanglement his entire body, and Yan's figure grew several meters taller, instantly increasing from two meters to two and a half meters.

At the same time, four magnificent Soul Ring rose from his body, Two Yellow Two Purple. The four Soul Ring surrounded his body, and a powerful Soul Power pressure of level 46 suddenly enveloped Oscar.

With a hint of smugness and ferocity on his face, Yan said, "Yan, Martial Soul: Flame Lord, Level 46 Attack Spirit Master."

As Yan released his Martial Soul, Oscar also displayed his Martial Soul. He slowly raised his right hand, turned it slightly in the air, and an ice-blue longsword appeared in his hand.

With the appearance of this longsword, Oscar's black hair turned ice blue, and his crystal-like pupils opened quietly. The air, which had become somewhat scorching due to Yan's release of his Martial Soul, seemed to begin to freeze under Oscar's gaze.

At the same time, four Soul Ring Two Yellow Two Purple, rose from Ao Yue's body, and the pressure of his level 45 Soul Power pressed down on Yan.

Unlike Yan's violent and domineering nature, Oscar, after releasing his Martial Soul, seemed to have transformed from a gentle and refined young man into a cold and noble nobleman. Moreover, in addition to the captivating coldness, Oscar's Soul Power also contained a sharp and unyielding sword intent.

Even though Oscar's clone's Soul Power Level was one level lower than Yan's, his aura was much more terrifying, giving him a subtle advantage.

Seeing the changes Oscar underwent after releasing his Martial Soul, Hu Liena couldn't help but slightly open her mouth, unable to hide her surprise.

If the gentle and refined Oscar of the past was already much stronger than Yan, then the Oscar of today is someone she absolutely has to look up to.

Although it was only their first meeting, she seemed to have developed a greater curiosity about Ao Yue.

She wondered how someone like that could possibly achieve such a feat. Oscar, however, was unaware of Hu Liena's thoughts and simply said, "Ao Yue, Martial Soul: Frost Moon Sword, Level 45 Attack Spirit Master, please!"

Seeing that both of them had released their Martial Soul and were using their respective Soul Power to exert pressure on each other, Luo Ying's voice rang out again. "Soul Fighting... begin!"

As soon as Luo Ying finished speaking, Yan moved. He was filled with anger. His opponent's Soul Power Level was only 45, yet he was able to overpower him in terms of Soul Power pressure? When had Yan ever been overpowered by someone his age? However, it was said that sword cultivators' Spiritual Power was indeed more resilient than that of ordinary Soul Master. But when it came to close combat, he felt that he could beat Oscar by leaps and bounds. So he decided to strike first.

Although Yan was not good at speed, with his level 46 Soul Power as a foundation, his burst of speed was astonishing. In the blink of an eye, he had already moved forward several meters.

However, Oscar wouldn't let Yan get close to him so easily. After all, sword cultivators aren't just handsome; using magic tricks to deplete the enemy's mana is also a common tactic.

Oscar wielded his ice-blue longsword with practiced ease, unleashing several ice-blue sword strikes that formed a sword array from the front, directly targeting the onrushing Yan.

Yan could have dodged Oscar's Ice Sword Qi, but he didn't. It wasn't that he was exaggerating, but rather that he had absolute confidence in his own strength.

In his view, a real man should fight with fists and flesh to show his charm! Yan's speed did not decrease in the slightest, and the first yellow Soul Ring on his body had already risen.

Please vote for me! Here I come! The character Luo Ying is a self-created character; can you guess what her Martial Soul is? Finally, please vote for me, brothers! Golden Crow really needs your support, you don't want me sitting on your laps... please, right?
