With the crowd's cheers still echoing, Yuan Luo returned to where Tang San was.

Everyone's eyes sparkled as they looked at Yuan Luo with worshipful expressions.

"Luo-ge, you're way too amazing!"

Ma Hongjun suddenly rushed over and grabbed Yuan Luo's arm, acting as if he were being coquettish.

"Luo-ge, I'm your biggest fan!"

Oscar suddenly grabbed Yuan Luo's other arm.

The two clung to Yuan Luo like little tagalongs.

Yuan Luo shook them off in disgust several times, but they held on tightly.

Yuan Luo sent each of them flying with a kick.

"Hahaha!"

"Hahaha!"

The room filled with laughter and cheer.

Three days later!

A small town appeared before them. Though it was not large, its location near the Star Dou Great Forest made it especially important.

"We'll rest here for the night and continue tomorrow."

Zhao Wuji said this to himself before heading into a rather ordinary inn.

"Teacher Zhao isn't coming in with us?" Tang San asked in confusion.

Dai Mubai shook his head and explained, "The academy has rules. Teachers can't accept any benefits from us."

Tang San nodded and entered with the others.

"Haha, I'll order, and Dai Laoda will pay!"

The moment Ma Hongjun entered, a menu appeared in his hands.

He called over a Waiter and opened the menu to the cheapest page.

"Got it? These dishes!"

The Waiter nodded, inwardly scoffing, What are you pretending to be rich for?

"None of these. Bring us everything else!"

Ma Hongjun patted his round belly, looking like a big boss from a previous life.

"You fat bastard! Are you trying to kill me?!"

Dai Mubai glared at Ma Hongjun. This meal would wipe out an entire month of his allowance.

"Come on, Dai Laoda. You and Luo-ge get the biggest allowances. If I don't fleece you, who else am I supposed to fleece?"

Ma Hongjun blinked innocently.

"Hey, Fatty, don't include me. My allowance is only at the Soul Master level now."

Yuan Luo's face darkened. He had only registered as a Soul Master a few years ago, and he had not dared go back since.

"Huh? Why, Luo-ge?"

"If I went to Spirit Hall after obtaining my Second Soul Ring, would I still be able to come back?"

Yuan Luo shot him an irritated glare.

"Oh, right! Dai Laoda, see? This is perfect for welcoming the brothers!"

Before long, the table was covered in dishes. Seeing the food, Yuan Luo's appetite stirred as well.

Yuan Luo ignored everything outside the window, focusing solely on the food before him.

He did not even interfere when they clashed with Canghui Academy.

If he stepped in, how would they get any training?

At that moment, an object suddenly flew over, about to smash into the table in front of Yuan Luo.

"Screech!"

Before it could reach him, the person was frozen by Ice Seal, with an Ice Pillar beneath him supporting his body.

"Brothers, summon your martial souls!"

Dai Mubai gave a cold shout and was the first to summon his martial soul.

The others quickly followed!

A row of yellow Soul Rings, along with Dai Mubai's Purple Soul Ring at the front, struck fear into everyone's hearts.

Canghui Academy's side, however, was far more pitiful. Every one of them had one white ring and one yellow ring, and some were even trembling at the knees.

"Step back."

At that moment, the white-robed teacher who had yet to make a move finally spoke.

Among these children, he had spotted a Soul Elder. In their entire group, only that girl had broken through to Soul Elder, though she had yet to absorb a Soul Ring.

"I am Ye Zhiqiu, director of external affairs for Canghui Academy. May I ask which sect you are from?"

"We're from Shrek Academy!"

The Fatty answered first, looking immensely pleased with himself.

His gaze kept drifting toward that girl. Sure enough, a phoenix could not change its lecherous ways.

"Mystic Tortoise, possess!"

Once Ye Zhiqiu learned that they were not disciples of some great sect, he no longer had any reason for caution.

One white, two yellow, and two purple Soul Rings appeared around him.

"Luo-ge, are you joining?" Tang San asked in a low voice. If Yuan Luo joined them, this battle would be easy.

Yuan Luo swallowed the meat in his mouth and said, "You go first. If you can't handle it, I'll step in!"

He was a salted fish, after all. How could he fight every day? If it were not for being a salted fish, he would never have wanted to participate in that battle at the Great Soul Arena.

Without another thought, Yuan Luo continued eating.

He had to admit, the food here was pretty good.

Half the food on the table vanished into Yuan Luo's stomach.

"Burp~"

After letting out a satisfied burp, Yuan Luo stretched lazily.

Seeing that the battle outside had reached a fever pitch and that his companions were beginning to fall behind, he finally looked over.

The Canghui Academy students kept cheering for their teacher. Only that girl watched silently.

"Pretty lady, meeting is fate. Among all these Soul Masters and ordinary people on Douluo Continent, the fact that we met must be an incredible destiny. How about I book a private room, and we study human anatomy together tonight? Maybe we'll even raise a Titled Douluo someday."

Seeing that the pretty young woman was quite attractive, Yuan Luo could not resist teasing her.

Though she was far inferior to Qian Renxue, she was still a rare beauty.

The woman frowned and took a step back.

"Get lost!"

She spoke without warmth, looking at Yuan Luo with disgust.

"Hey, how can you be like that? Pretty lady, I think you've got quite a temper. You might have an endocrine imbalance. I have a family remedy—supposedly, yin-yang intercourse can cure it. How about I make a sacrifice? Don't worry, I'll pay for the room!"

"Bastard!"

The woman seemed to have been enraged. A ring suddenly appeared in her hand, and two yellow Soul Rings emerged.

She appeared to be a control-system Soul Master.

"Pretty lady, fighting won't solve anything. How about we get a room and fight on the bed instead? Beds are much more comfortable!"

"Second Soul Skill, Bind!"

The ring in the woman's hand suddenly flew toward Yuan Luo. It enlarged above his head until it was already two meters across.

"Pretty lady, why are you so obsessed with fighting?"

Yuan Luo stomped his left foot, and the woman's movements suddenly froze. Parts of her body were already covered in Ice.

The ring swiftly shrank and fell to the ground.

"Pretty lady, I told you not to resist!"

Yuan Luo slowly approached, bringing his face closer and closer. He licked his lips as though he were about to savor a delicious meal.

The people beside her did not dare step forward. They were trembling at the legs after seeing him subdue a near-Soul Elder without even using his martial soul.

"Luo-ge, she's my type!"

Seeing this, Ma Hongjun looked devastated, as though he had lost his wife.

Phoenix Flames!

Filled with indignation, he blasted a huge mass of fire at Ye Zhiqiu.

"Look how scared you are!"

Yuan Luo grinned. He truly had no interest in this woman. He had merely been having some fun teasing her.

Then Yuan Luo slowly walked toward Ye Zhiqiu.

The Soul Rings beneath his feet gradually emerged.

When the second Soul Ring appeared, the onlookers could no longer remain calm.

"A Purple Soul Ring? How is that possible?!"

"It's actually purple!"

"His Second Soul Ring is purple!"

"Damn, he's a Soul Elder!"

"How old is he?!"

When all three Soul Rings appeared, everyone was utterly stunned.

The Canghui Academy students in particular had assumed Yuan Luo had stayed out of the battle because he was too weak. They had never expected him to be the strongest of them all.

The woman's body had already thawed. She bit her lip, her face filled with grievance.

She frantically thought, I should have agreed to him just now.

Ye Zhiqiu was stunned as well, giving Yuan Luo the perfect opportunity.

Water Prison!

Sky Full of Needle Rain!
