Qingzhu Zhu: Thank You, Zhou Qing!

"Sister, it's not good to slack off during a battle."

Qingzhu Zhu's figure suddenly flashed to Zhu Zhuyun's side and whispered something in her ear.

Snap!

Zhu Zhuyun reached out and grabbed at it, but missed.

Qingzhu Zhu again, she had already jumped to another tree. Her speed and reaction ability were even three points faster than Zhu Zhuyun's.

"Cut!"

Zhu Zhuyun also had the idea of comparison, and with a flash of her figure, she chased after Qingzhu Zhu.

In an instant, two black figures, one large and one small, flashed through the woods. Even Mother Zhu, who was Soul Ancestor, could not see their speed clearly.

As three minutes passed, Zhu Zhuyun became increasingly alarmed, because she discovered that she was actually a little slower than Qingzhu Zhu.

Whenever her claws were about to grab Qingzhu Zhu, Qingzhu Zhu would dodge by turning to the side or lowering her head, demonstrating an astonishingly quick reflex.

even--

"Got you!"

Seeing that Qingzhu Zhu's speed was slowing down, Zhu Zhuyun was overjoyed. Realizing that the opponent's Soul Power might be running out, she squeezed out her own Soul Power and increased her speed by three points.

Just as his claws were about to touch Qingzhu Zhu, Qingzhu Zhu suddenly turned around and came right towards his face.

Just as Zhu Zhuyun's claws were about to touch Qingzhu Zhu's body, Qingzhu Zhu seemed to have anticipated this, slightly turning her body to dodge the attack while simultaneously using her claws to grab Zhu Zhuyun's waist, tearing her clothes.

Sizzle!

Zhu Zhuyun stopped abruptly, looked down, and touched the tear in her clothes at her waist, somewhat incredulous.

Although Zhu Zhuyun was not injured, she knew in her heart that it was because her sister did not want to hurt her.

But--

[This attack power is indeed a bit weak.]

The Hell Spirit Cat primarily attacks with its claws. As its Martial Soul grows with the Soul Master's level, its Dark Attribute emerges. It obtains Soul Ring from Dark Attribute Soul Beast and acquires corresponding Soul Skill, which are also used to better support its Claw Attack Type attack skills.

After all, the Hell Spirit Cat is not Soul Beast whose main attribute is darkness. It cannot directly control Dark Energy to attack. In most cases, it can only be used to assist in battle, rather than as the key to the battle.

"What exactly is your First Soul Skill?" Zhu Zhuyun still held a Sisi of expectation.

"I call this a three-fold speed boost: Netherworld Swift Shadow." Qingzhu Zhu knew she couldn't hide it any longer, so she told the truth.

"Increase speed?"

Zhu Zhuyun thought to herself, "As expected!" Then she realized that Qingzhu Zhu probably already knew what skills the Shadow Swift Cat would give her, and she immediately became furious and said, "Idiot! Attack skills are the most important! You actually want to increase speed? Our Nether Civet Martial Soul already has a speed talent that far surpasses most Agility-Attack System, and this talent will continue to strengthen as our Soul Power increases. We don't need to waste a Soul Ring slot to increase our speed at all!"

"I think this skill is very suitable." Qingzhu Zhu was quite satisfied with the skill. "Sister, you can no longer keep up with my speed."

This is indeed true.

Although Zhu Zhuyun's First Soul Skill is Hell Stab, which can double her speed, it is ultimately an attack skill, and the speed increase only lasts for a moment.

But Qingzhu Zhu's First Soul Skill, Netherworld Swift Shadow, is different. As long as her body can withstand it and her Soul Power is not exhausted, the three-fold speed increase is continuous!

Moreover, as Qingzhu Zhu's Soul Power increases in the future, this three-fold increase in speed will widen the speed gap between the two even further.

"Who told you that you could choose the Shadow Swift Cat as your First Spirit Ring?" Zhu Zhuyun calmed down and asked about it. "That Zhou Qing?"

"I came up with it myself!" Qingzhu Zhu's big eyes trembled slightly as she hurriedly exclaimed.

"It really is him."

As the eldest sister, Zhu Zhuyun could easily see through Qingzhu Zhu's little scheme. She frowned and said, "Forget it, you've already obtained your First Soul Skill. No matter what I say, it won't change anything. Just know what you're doing. A three-fold speed boost is indeed faster than me, a level 27 Soul Grandmaster, but your lack of attack power is your Achilles' heel. If you hadn't held back just now, you would have only managed to scratch my skin at most."

"That's enough," Qingzhu Zhu said. "Zhou Qing said that my speed is perfect for being an assassin. As long as I can move so fast that everyone else is in slow motion, it will be enough to make my name known throughout the entire Douluo Continent."

Zhu Zhuyun remained silent.

This method...

It seems like no one in the family has ever thought about this?

If Zhou Qing were here, he would surely be able to explain why: Soul Grandmaster families on the continent hope to focus their skill points on combat. Even Support System, Healing System, and Food System Soul Master have a heart set on becoming Battle Soul Master.

This is due to the overall war atmosphere on the mainland.

Besides, there are the direct descendants of the Nether Spirit Cat Clan. Their Martial Soul already possess speed talents that other Agility-Attack System Soul Master do not have. Due to limited vision, they could not have imagined that they could further enhance the speed of the Nether Civet Martial Soul through Soul Skill.

After all, the speed of the Hell Spirit Cat is already among the best in the entire Douluo Continent, so the Zhu Family family naturally thought about enhancing the Hell Spirit Cat's combat power rather than focusing on its speed.

"Hmph, Crooked Gate Evil Path."

However, as the eldest sister, Zhu Zhuyun was quite determined and would not easily believe in this method.

Zhu Zhuyun did not agree with the way the family and the royal family competed, but how could the best choice of Soul Ring summarized by the ancestors of the family be wrong?

Zhou Qing couldn't possibly be that monstrous!

"Anyway, I quite like this Soul Skill." Qingzhu Zhu recalled what Zhou Qing had told her:

Do what you want to do. If you don't do it well, don't blame yourself; blame the world. Don't hesitate, because hesitation will lead to regret no matter what you do. And since you'll regret it anyway, choose the easier path. Even God doesn't know if you'll be happy tomorrow.

Choosing the Shadow Swift Cat's Soul Ring was Zhou Qing's suggestion, but it was also her own choice!

She didn't hesitate at all!

Moreover, she did not regret obtaining the Soul Ring. In fact, during the process of using her Soul Skill and running at high speed, the speed that even Qingzhu Zhu could not catch up with made her feel free for a moment!

At that moment, she was happy!

That's why Qingzhu Zhu has made up her mind that in the future, she must continuously improve the speed of cultivating her Martial Soul!

Escaping is indeed shameful, but it's certainly the easiest option...

I understand now—

Thank you, Zhou Qing!

However, Qingzhu Zhu had another thought in her mind: when her speed really reached the point where she could see others in slow motion, could she still call it "escaping"?
