Bei Bei: Damn

"I noticed your Soul Power hasn't reached a bottleneck yet, so I was curious why you came to the Star Dou Great Forest." Bei Bei wore a refined yet casual fake smile.

Just now, their entire group had been ambushed by the Purple Spirit Wolf. Both he and Xiaoya had been affected, yet Chen Feng alone was completely unharmed. This left Bei Bei greatly shocked.

Seeing the wary look in Bei Bei's eyes, Tang Ya folded her arms and said to him irritably.

"Bei Bei, there's no need for Chen Feng to explain why he came to the Star Dou Great Forest. He gave us the Purple Spirit Wolf's Spirit Ring. We should be thanking him. You're being far too rude!"

"Uh..." Hearing Xiaoya's words, Bei Bei was left speechless. Chen Feng truly had no reason to explain himself to him.

Watching the two interact, Chen Feng said to Tang Ya, "Senior Sister Tang Ya, this isn't Senior Brother Bei's fault. After all, in the Star Dou Great Forest, it's only natural to be wary when meeting someone for the first time."

When Tang Ya heard that Chen Feng was handsome, strong, understanding, broad-minded, and had even yielded the Spirit Ring to her earlier, her favorable impression of him immediately soared.

Tang Ya said to Bei Bei, "Bei Bei, you went too far just now. Hurry up and apologize to Junior Brother Chen."

Seeing this amusing scene, Chen Feng laughed. "Senior Sister, how can you make Senior Brother Bei apologize? He was only looking out for you."

Tang Ya looked at Chen Feng, who was young but already so mature, and found him more and more pleasing to the eye. Yet the more Chen Feng said this, the more she wanted Bei Bei to apologize.

Tang Ya cast Bei Bei a sidelong glance. Bei Bei looked at Chen Feng, then at Tang Ya, seeing that she was clearly determined to seek justice for Chen Feng.

The refined smile on his face could no longer hold. With a stiff expression, he said, "Junior Brother Chen Feng, my mistake, my mistake."

Chen Feng chuckled inwardly. Little Bei Bei, trying to fish for information from me?

Then Chen Feng began chatting with Xiaoya.

When Xiaoya heard Chen Feng sadly recount how his parents had been killed by Soul Beasts when he was five, and how he had relied on himself ever since, traveling far and wide while honing his abilities, her eyes grew misty with tears.

Alongside her heartache, she also felt a pang of deep empathy.

She, too, had lost both parents, and the Tang Sect's foundation had been seized by outsiders.

For a moment, Tang Ya felt that she and Chen Feng were practically kindred spirits, sharing the same misfortune.

Looking at Chen Feng, whose features were still youthful yet whose demeanor was exceptionally mature, Tang Ya nearly could not resist stepping forward to hug him and comfort him properly.

Tang Ya stretched out her slender jade-like hand and clasped Chen Feng's large, well-defined hand.

"Everything will get better. Later, we'll personally take you to Shrek Academy. From now on, Senior Sister will protect you. Whoever dares bully you, I'll beat him so badly even his mother won't recognize him." Tang Ya playfully raised her clenched little fist at Chen Feng, comforting him.

Chen Feng could not help but laugh at adorable Tang Ya. "Then thank you, Senior Sister Xiaoya."

Watching the two chat happily as their relationship rapidly warmed, Bei Bei suddenly felt an overwhelming sense of crisis.

It's over. Teacher Xiao Ya is going to be stolen away by this pretty boy called Chen Feng.

Bei Bei hurriedly joined Chen Feng and Xiaoya's conversation, while Chen Feng merely smiled it off.

At this moment, Huo Yuhao, who was fusing with his Spirit Ring, seemed to have reached a critical stage. His entire body trembled uncontrollably.

With only level one Innate Soul Power, Huo Yuhao's physical aptitude was extremely poor. His meridians were narrow and fragile, and some were even tangled together.

This caused the blocked meridians to be assaulted by the Spirit Ring's power while Huo Yuhao absorbed it, leaving him in unbearable pain.

Sky Dream Ice Silkworm said within Chen Feng's Sea of Spirit, "This human's Martial Soul is actually of the spiritual attribute too."

"But his talent is truly terrible. Level ten Soul Power, poor talent, weak body. Fortunately, I met Chen Feng before this. If I had followed this kid, the road ahead would have been difficult." Filled with the relaxed joy of having been incredibly lucky and chosen the right person, Sky Dream Ice Silkworm fell asleep once more.

Seeing Huo Yuhao's pained condition, Bei Bei and Tang Ya grew somewhat anxious. However, they could not help him absorb the Spirit Ring. If they forcibly interrupted him, Huo Yuhao would likely be seriously injured, perhaps even have his path as a Soul Master cut short.

Although Bei Bei knew Huo Yuhao's talent was poor, he had not expected it to be this poor. He could barely endure even a three-hundred-year Spirit Ring.

Bei Bei was even more astonished that Huo Yuhao had managed to cultivate to the Soul Master level. He could imagine just how diligent and determined Huo Yuhao had to be.

Meanwhile, Chen Feng was also silently observing Huo Yuhao. To be honest, without Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, Huo Yuhao would basically have had no chance of becoming powerful. Besides, with level one Innate Soul Power, reaching Soul King would already have been impressive.

Huo Yuhao and Chen Feng had no grudge between them. It was fine to treat him as just another passerby.

Chen Feng sighed. Once the wings of his butterfly began to flap, many things had changed... Sky Dream Ice Silkworm had appeared ahead of time, while Electrolux was nowhere to be found.

In the end, Huo Yuhao successfully completed the fusion without any real danger. The situation inside his body had stabilized, and he entered a meditative cultivation state.

Chen Feng knowingly asked Tang Ya beside him in a low voice, "Senior Sister Xiaoya, that young man had a difficult time absorbing his Spirit Ring. Is he also one of Shrek Academy's New Students?"

Chen Feng no longer called her Senior Sister Tang Ya. He had directly changed the way he addressed her to Senior Sister Xiaoya.

"His name is Huo Yuhao. Mm, he'll be going with us to Shrek Academy. Although his Soul Power doesn't meet the requirements right now, our Tang Sect has one quota every year for admission to Shrek Academy without an entrance exam." Hearing this, Tang Ya smiled and leaned closer to Chen Feng as she spoke.

The faint fragrance wafting from Tang Ya's body was clearly perceptible.

"So? So? Our Tang Sect is impressive, right? Do you want to join our Tang Sect?" As the Tang Sect's leader, Tang Ya immediately wanted to recruit Chen Feng into the sect.

"Senior Sister Xiaoya, I plan to choose a sect after I graduate." Chen Feng clearly had no intention of joining the Tang Sect, but he phrased it tactfully.

Hearing Tang Ya trying to recruit Chen Feng into the Tang Sect, Bei Bei thought, If Chen Feng really joins the Tang Sect, he and Xiaoya will be together day and night... No, no. Chen Feng absolutely cannot join the Tang Sect!!!

"Xiaoya, since Chen Feng has already said so, let's leave the matter at that. I suppose Chen Feng simply doesn't think much of the Tang Sect as it is now." Bei Bei wanted Tang Ya to understand that Chen Feng's decision meant he simply looked down on the Tang Sect.

Tang Ya immediately became dejected upon hearing Bei Bei's words. Clearly, his words had hurt her.

Seeing Tang Ya's dejection, Bei Bei also realized that he had said the wrong thing.

At this moment, seeing Tang Ya's sadness, Chen Feng offered her a few words of comfort. Tang Ya quickly went from sorrow to joy, then ignored Bei Bei.

Instead, she resumed chatting and laughing with Chen Feng. As for Bei Bei, Tang Ya made it clear: she was angry now and did not want to talk to him. Hmph!!

Bei Bei slapped his forehead and cursed himself for being such an idiot.
