Soul Fighting (Newbie Begging for Votes!!!TvT)

In the days that followed, Ye Wen devoted himself wholeheartedly to research after his Second Soul Skill received an epic boost. Many problems that had once been obscure and difficult to understand were easily solved with this soul skill.

With the help of this soul skill, Ye Wen used the various strange plant roots and medicinal herbs he had collected over the years to compile the world's first work on the level of the Compendium of Materia Medica.

If this had been the Primordial World, Ye Wen would probably have already attained sainthood through the merits of humanity.

Unfortunately, the Douluo World was ultimately of a lower order.

(PS: This was not arbitrarily giving the protagonist a cheat. He inherently possessed this ability; his Spiritual Power simply had not met the required standard before, so he had failed to discover it.

What was the essence of space? Matter. So it was perfectly reasonable for a martial soul with the origin of space to awaken such an ability, right?)

Ye Wen felt restless, wanting to enter the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and pluck every immortal herb there before the future Demon King Tang San could ruin them all.

But after thinking it over, Ye Wen gave up on the idea. His cultivation had only just surpassed Soul King level. While that barely made him a third-rate expert in this world, he was still not strong enough to act recklessly in a large Soul Beast gathering ground.

As for teaching his disciples, Ye Wen left that to Ah Yin. The two of them could already be considered mutually attracted, but they were still too young. Ye Wen had no intention of breaking through that final barrier yet; doing that sort of thing too early would be harmful to them both.

Ah Yin, meanwhile, was in an excellent mood because she was nearing Soul King level, and she had become somewhat lazy. Besides, Ah Yin seemed to enjoy taking care of children. Basic soul master instruction was not particularly difficult in the first place.

Memorizing books—three years of entrance exams, five years of mock tests—got it!

If Ye Wen still had to worry about such a small amount of knowledge, he might as well expel these disciples from the sect.

Just as Ye Wen was engrossed in researching knowledge, the Huo siblings came to find him.

"Master, we want actual combat."

Setting down the materials in his hands, Ye Wen looked at the siblings, who had already begun to resemble adults. Huo Rui had grown even more valiant and upright, and her high ponytail made her look brimming with youthful energy.

Huo Quan was as steady as ever, but his cropped hair and resolute face made him look exactly like a military man—almost too familiar.

"You want to gain practical combat experience? Cough, cough, cough." Ye Wen tapped the table and pondered for a while.

Without question, the siblings were both monsters when it came to soul master cultivation. At such young ages, they had already entered the Soul Elder realm. Huo Quan was level thirty-five, while Huo Rui was level thirty-two. Moreover, because they practiced the Self-Created Soul Skill Six Styles, along with tree-climbing and water-treading, their close-combat abilities were terrifying. Once they got close, even Ye Wen did not think he could surpass them in technique.

Glancing at the research that had recently reached a bottleneck, Ye Wen rubbed his chin.

Perhaps going out for a trip would lead to a breakthrough.

"Fine."

The siblings exchanged excited looks. As the saying went, when one held a sharp blade, murderous intent naturally arose. Especially when the two of them had mastered such astonishing killing techniques.

Unfortunately, the people around them were either teachers far stronger than them or junior disciples far weaker than them. They simply could not unleash themselves to their fullest. Now that they were young and full of vigor, they naturally wanted to show what they had learned, which was why they made this request of Ye Wen.

Outside the David Soul Fighting Arena in David City, Fanuosi Province—

Watching the dense streams of people in the distance, excitement flashed in the Huo siblings' eyes. Ye Wen, however, was much calmer. Since he often went out to search for materials, he was quite familiar with the medium and large cities around Nuoding City.

As for why they did not go to the Great Soul Arena in Suotuo City—

Because it was too far away. They would have to cross the border, okay? ~_~

Those unfamiliar with the original work might not understand the structure of the Heaven Dou Empire and the Star Luo Empire, but anyone who did would look down on both empires immensely.

The original Heaven Dou Empire had ten provinces in total, and Fanuosi Province, where Ye Wen was located, was one of them.

But the present Heaven Dou Empire had split apart. At this time, it controlled only five provinces, while the other five had been granted to four kingdoms and one duchy, becoming the front line against the Star Luo Empire.

The Star Luo Empire, Heaven Dou's longtime rival, was in much the same situation. By the later stages of Douluo Continent I, those kingdoms and duchies were even directly won over by Spirit Hall, becoming the main forces used to contain the two great empires.

Pointing at a huge black stone monument outside the David Soul Fighting Arena, Ye Wen said, "See that monument? The names carved on it belong to soul masters who made a mistake and were beaten to death in this Soul Fighting Arena. So my requirement for you is that you try not to hold back in the battles ahead.

"Also, I'm adding a few restrictions. First, your Soul Rings cannot be displayed. Your Soul Ring configurations are simply too shocking. If the factions within the Soul Fighting Arena see them, it will be very disadvantageous for us.

"Also, you are not allowed to use long-range Self-Created Soul Skills. You must fight entirely through physical techniques.

"Lastly, since we're already here, you should fight at least ten matches. If either of you loses even one, then from now on, I'll make sure to properly supervise your training.

"()"

Seeing Ye Wen's sinister smile, the siblings shuddered. They secretly wondered whether they had been too hasty in asking for actual combat. They wanted to plead with Ye Wen, but seeing that wicked grin, they swallowed their words and silently swore that they absolutely could not lose.

Ye Wen had been busy with research lately and had not overseen their training. But the siblings had personally experienced his instruction before. They had no desire to go through that feeling of extreme exploitation again.

The two walked up to the counter together, took out ten gold coins, and said, "We'd like to register."

"May I ask for your cultivation levels and registration names?"

Huo Rui said, "Level thirty-two Soul Elder, Heavenly Path Senior Sister."

Huo Quan said, "Level thirty-five Soul Elder, Heavenly Path Second Senior Brother."

"Would you like to sign up for Soul Fighting matches today?"

"Yes."

"Very well, your registrations have been completed. Heavenly Path Senior Sister, you have a match at two this afternoon. Heavenly Path Second Senior Brother, you have a match at four this afternoon."

The whole process was completed quickly. The two then changed into the fitted black outfits threaded with gold that Ye Wen had prepared for them and began getting ready.

The outfits were simply decorated. Their most eye-catching feature was the words "Heavenly Path," embroidered in gold thread over the left chest. Ye Wen had designed these uniforms specifically for his disciples. They were light and easy to move in, suitable for battle, and would never hold them back in combat or give their enemies an opening to exploit.

Ye Wen had also thoughtfully prepared masks for them to conceal their appearances. After all, they had come out this time for practical combat experience, not to recruit students. It would be enough to build a little reputation. Besides, who would know whether Heavenly Path was followed by the word academy or sect?
