System Refresh: Make a Choice to Receive Rewards

The Rose Hotel was exquisitely decorated,

Its refreshing fragrance and elegant surroundings easily left people with a good impression.

It looked expensive, but Tang Lin's defining trait was that she was not lacking money.

Tang Lin walked up to the counter. "Please open two rooms."

The waiter behind the counter sized up the three of them, a hint of surprise appearing in his eyes.

Two women and one man? What kind of combination was that?

"Sorry, we only have one room left."

Xiao Wu said without thinking,

"Then one room is fine. Back when we were at Nuoding Academy,"

"Weren't we always in the same dormitory?"

Tang Lin rolled her eyes. "You're already this old. Do you know what gender separation is?"

Xiao Wu smiled awkwardly and said nothing more.

"How about this, Xiao San,"

"You go find somewhere else to stay."

Tang San nodded and agreed.

"Please open the room for me,"

Tang Lin said as she turned to the waiter.

Just as the waiter was about to handle the paperwork for Tang San,

A sudden voice interrupted him.

"I'd say this room should belong to me."

The three of them turned around at the same time.

They saw three other people appear behind them, walking toward the counter.

One man and two women. The man in the middle had his arms around a pair of twin women.

Golden hair, mismatched pupils.

Tang Lin recognized him at a glance.

The Lustful Tiger, Dai Mubai. Despite his young age, he was already quite the womanizer.

Dai Mubai walked toward the counter with the twins in his arms.

Tang San casually stretched out a leg, directly blocking the path of all three.

"This room belongs to you?"

"Do you know what first come, first served means?"

Dai Mubai looked at Tang San indifferently.

"You're blocking my way?"

"First come, first served? I don't understand. What's mine is mine."

"Get lost."

Tang San's expression changed instantly. After six years at Nuoding Academy, no one had ever dared speak to him like that.

Two Yellow Soul Rings appeared beneath his feet with a flash. As his First Soul Ring lit up, Blue Silver Bind instantly lashed toward all three of them, including the twin women.

When in doubt, Blue Silver Bind!

"You actually dare to attack!"

A sharp light burst from Dai Mubai's eyes as he completed Martial Soul Possession with a boom.

His First Soul Ring flashed as well. White Tiger Protective Barrier!

A powerful White Light Wave instantly blasted apart the Blue Silver Grass wrapped around him. The two twin women were flung off to either side by the shockwave.

Yet Dai Mubai did not even spare them a glance. He merely stared at Tang San. They were just toys; at worst, he could replace them.

"Very good. It's been a long time since anyone dared treat me like this!"

Intense fighting spirit erupted from Dai Mubai's ice-cold eyes.

Two Yellow One Purple Three Soul Rings pulsed up and down beneath him.

"You're already a two-ring Soul Grandmaster at such a young age. Not bad talent."

Tang Lin's faint voice rang out.

"Xiao San, he's a Soul Elder. We're no match for him. At worst, Xiao Wu and I can stay somewhere else."

Tang San might not have fought otherwise, but after Tang Lin's slightly provocative words, there was no way he could avoid fighting now.

Tang San swept his gaze over Dai Mubai. Although his opponent was a Soul Elder, he had nothing to fear.

With all his Hidden Weapons unleashed, even a Soul Elder would be in for a rough time.

"Big Sister, we're in the right here. So what if he's stronger?"

"Arrogant!"

Dai Mubai snorted coldly and stomped down hard.

The floor beneath his foot immediately shattered into pieces.

His Tiger Claw lashed fiercely toward Tang San.

Tang San retreated swiftly without hesitation.

Using Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, he evaded Dai Mubai's attack.

Blue Silver Grass grew wildly, concealing his body as it rapidly coiled around Dai Mubai.

Dai Mubai's Second Soul Ring flashed, and a milky white sphere of light shot from his mouth, blasting apart a large amount of Blue Silver Grass.

The vines formed from Blue Silver Grass instantly shattered and scattered. The powerful shockwave swept through the Rose Hotel's lobby, leaving it in complete disarray.

The Martial Soul and its host were one.

Tang San's face immediately turned pale. He took a step back before steadying himself.

But a new wave of attack arrived without a sound.

Tang San's Second Soul Skill, Parasite.

The Blue Silver Grass Seed that had silently landed on Dai Mubai's body activated rapidly.

A layer of dense vines instantly grew, tightly binding Dai Mubai's body within them.

Though the thorns on the vines were only about an inch long, their continuous tightening brought intense pain throughout Dai Mubai's body.

At the same time, a powerful paralysis toxin seeped into him.

Dai Mubai's entire body went numb, making it difficult for him to move.

"I never expected a mere Blue Silver Grass to possess this kind of strength."

A fierce glint flickered repeatedly in his eyes.

"At the same level, I did lose."

"But I still have one more Soul Ring than you."

"Third Soul Skill, White Tiger Vajra Transformation!"

Dai Mubai's Third Soul Ring lit up. His eyes turned blood-red, and the Blue Silver Grass wrapped around him shattered with a bang.

Tang San drew in a sharp breath. "Is this the skill of a Thousand Year Soul Ring?"

Feeling the pressure of the Thousand Year Soul Skill, Xiao Wu instantly completed Martial Soul Possession, and two Yellow Soul Rings rose beneath her.

Her legs became even more slender, drawing an extra glance from Dai Mubai.

Tang Lin still hid cautiously in the back, looking like an ordinary person who was afraid.

Combined with her disguised appearance, she drew no attention at all.

"You're no match for me,"

"You've lost!"

Dai Mubai's indifferent voice rang out.

[System Ability Refresh,]

[Current Ability: As long as you Make a Choice, you can receive a reward,]

"System, oh system, you finally refreshed. It's been years. Do you have any idea how I've lived these past few years?"

[Choice One: Personally take action and knock Dai Mubai down, making Dai Mubai submit. Reward: Large Soul Power Boost.]

[Choice Two: Have Xiao Wu join Tang San in attacking and beat Dai Mubai up. Reward: Moderate Soul Power Boost.]

[Choice Three: Persuade Tang San to attack with Hidden Weapons and strike Dai Mubai as much as possible. Reward: Small Soul Power Boost.]

Looking at the three choices offered by the system,

Tang Lin rolled her eyes helplessly.

The first was impossible to choose. She had kept a low profile for so long, and now she was supposed to suddenly make a move? What a joke.

A little Soul Power Boost was supposed to make her change? It had no appeal at all.

The second option, having Xiao Wu attack, would not work either. While Tang San drew attention outside, she still needed Xiao Wu by her side to draw attention as well.

That left only the third option.

A Small Soul Power Boost was better than nothing, and she could continue shaping Tang San's personality a little more.

Just as Tang San was about to admit that he had already lost, Tang Lin suddenly jumped out from behind Xiao Wu.

"Lost?"

"Impossible. How could Xiao San possibly lose?"

"My Second Brother is Invincible Under Heaven!"
