Fiery Red Figure (Three Updates Tomorrow)

Because new students were arriving to register and enroll, Vast Shrek Academy had become exceptionally lively.

Because students from the other grades all knew that the Promotion Exam would take place after school started—and the Promotion Exam was brutally harsh—they were all cultivating diligently, terrified of being eliminated.

Only the new students had yet to officially begin school or experience Shrek Academy's cruel elimination system. They had just arrived and found everything fresh and exciting.

After Chen Feng passed through the New Student Teaching Building, he arrived at the broad Shrek Plaza, where quite a few new students wandered about in small groups.

Chen Feng's appearance and bearing were simply unmatched among Shrek Academy's new students. As he crossed Shrek Plaza, many female students proactively approached him, hoping to get acquainted.

Chen Feng politely turned them all down with a smile. Even so, many young new students still wanted to befriend him.

Chen Feng saw through those girls' little thoughts at a glance. Little girls, do you really want to be friends? You're after my body.

People on Douluo Continent generally matured early. Marrying and having children in one's teens was commonplace, and Soul Masters, nourished by Soul Power, often matured even faster than ordinary people. At twelve or thirteen, they could already look like adults. It was perfectly normal for them to harbor fantasies about outstanding members of the opposite sex.

Perhaps Chen Feng could easily resolve the Yin-Yang Balance issue within his body with a simple beckoning gesture, but he had no such intention at all.

Although Chen Feng cultivated the Yin-Yang Art, he would only choose several outstanding female Soul Masters as girlfriends.

What mattered in women was quality, not quantity. Chen Feng's will was strong, and he would not indulge his desires. His desires would remain firmly under his control.

He would never lose his head over women, become unable to walk after seeing one, or rush over and shamelessly fawn over her.

Besides, those girls were merely one-ring or two-ring Soul Masters. Their help to his cultivation was so slight that it could be ignored.

Chen Feng walked all the way out through Shrek's East Gate.

The moment he stepped outside, Chen Feng was stunned by the bustling sight. The main road beyond the East Gate was even livelier at night than during the day.

The flourishing night scene was like a beautiful painting. The city's lights dotted the darkness like stars.

All kinds of Vendor Stalls had been set up, their cries of sale rising and falling as they drew numerous Shrek students over to browse and buy.

Those stalls sold all manner of goods, from food to handicrafts, from clothing to accessories. Everything was available.

Entertainment Venues were equally prosperous. In those places that could not be specifically described, seductive older women could often lure away inexperienced young students with a mere curl of a finger, leaving them to return to Shrek Academy the next day with weak, trembling legs.

Chen Feng found a restaurant with a pleasant atmosphere and refined decor. He ordered several dishes, intending to enjoy a good meal before making a trip to Shrek Academy's Inner Courtyard.

While Chen Feng waited for his food, his powerful Spiritual Power sensed someone approaching him, and he immediately turned around.

The person before him was Tang Ya, whom he had met once not long ago. A warm smile hung on her pretty face, while one slender jade-like hand was frozen stiffly in midair.

It looked as though she had been about to surprise Chen Feng from behind.

Chen Feng smiled. "Senior Sister Xiaoya, what a coincidence."

"Tch, you actually noticed me." Tang Ya withdrew her raised right hand, brushed back her hair, and pouted her pink lips.

"Chen Feng, how did you find me? I thought I hid myself pretty well."

Chen Feng merely smiled without answering and instead asked, "Senior Sister Xiaoya, where is Senior Brother Bei? Why isn't he with you?"

The smile vanished from Tang Ya's face. She sighed and said, "After we returned from the Star Dou Great Forest last time, Bei Bei began cultivating diligently. I haven't seen him in days. Junior Brother Chen Feng, aren't you going to treat me to a meal and cheer me up?"

Chen Feng said, "You should be thanking me. It's a good thing that Bei Bei is cultivating hard. It's already generous enough that I'm not making you treat me to a meal."

Tang Ya heard that and felt that it made perfect sense. But did women ever reason things out?

Tang Ya smiled coquettishly. "I don't care. I'm in a bad mood, so you have to treat me to a meal."

Chen Feng casually teased her a few times. How could Tang Ya's sharp tongue possibly match Chen Feng, someone who had struggled through life on the continent? She was promptly defeated.

In the end, she treated Chen Feng to dinner...

When Tang Ya paid, her face was full of pain. The owner smiled at the lively young girl and gave her a discount, while Chen Feng was in high spirits as well.

Chen Feng smiled. "I'll treat you next time."

Tang Ya's eyes lit up. "No backing out. Liars are puppies."

Then the two of them strolled back to Shrek Academy together, casually chatting back and forth along the way.

Before the shore of Sea God Lake, Chen Feng smiled and said, "Senior Sister Xiaoya, then I'll see you next time!"

"See you next time."

After they parted, Tang Ya turned back to look at Chen Feng's retreating figure, her gaze slightly complicated...

Xu Sanshi happened to pass by and saw Tang Ya with an impossibly handsome man before they reluctantly parted. His mouth fell open in shock, and with a crack, his jaw dislocated...

At that moment, Xu Sanshi had only one thought. Bei Bei, Xiaoya is cheating on you! You've been cuckolded!! No, I have to tell Bei Bei...

At that moment, Chen Feng arrived at the shore of Sea God Lake. On the lake's surface, he switched his Martial Soul to the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion and walked across the water. With every step he took, a slab of solid ice condensed beneath his feet.

With Chen Feng's Soul Saint-level Spiritual Power, accomplishing this was naturally no problem.

At first, he was somewhat unpracticed and used a little too much Soul Power, making the ice too large. But once he grew proficient, the ice crystals he condensed on the lake were neither too large nor too small. Any more would waste Soul Power; any less would fail to support his weight.

Very soon, Chen Feng saw Sea God Island in the center of Sea God Lake.

There were many buildings on Sea God Island, but only one was tall and majestic above all the rest. It was Sea God Pavilion, located at the heart of the island.

Sea God Pavilion had six floors above ground, each more than ten meters tall, making it exceedingly grand. However, because mist surrounded Sea God Island all year round, it could not be seen clearly from Shrek Academy's Outer Courtyard.

Chen Feng soon reached Sea God Island. At that moment, an Elder whose aura was unfathomably deep asked in confusion, "An Outer Courtyard student? Don't you know that Outer Courtyard students are not allowed on Sea God Island?"

Chen Feng handed the Elder the badge Ling Luochen had given him. "Senior Sister Ling Luochen from the Inner Courtyard asked me to come find her."

"Little Ling?" The Elder gave Chen Feng an uncertain once-over. He discovered that Chen Feng possessed excellent talent and was extraordinarily handsome, then a lecherous smile appeared on his wrinkled old face.

The Elder wore an expression that said he understood, and he also told Chen Feng where Ling Luochen lived.

Chen Feng respectfully thanked the Elder, then headed toward Ling Luochen's building.

Just as Chen Feng passed by a pavilion.

A Red Figure rushed out from inside. She had an outstanding figure, blood-red hair and eyes, yet her entire body radiated a fierce, chilling aura, like some terrifying Soul Beast...

Then she stared at Chen Feng with blazing eyes.
