Ten-Year Soul Ring Scares Dai Mubai to Death

"Sir, what kind of room would the three of you like?"

Tang San was secretly startled. Why are the room prices here so expensive?!

But as a master of facial expression management, Tang San naturally would not reveal the astonishment of a country bumpkin. "I want two standard rooms. One for Xiao Wu and one for myself. Li Chen, you can pay for your own room."

The attendant suddenly lowered her head awkwardly. "Sorry, the three of you, but we only have one premium room left. What would you like to do?"

Xiao Wu's eyes darted around. "Tang San, I really like it here. Can we stay here, please?"

"Please?"

Xiao Wu lowered her head, pinching the hem of her skirt with her fingers as she asked timidly.

An unparalleled urge to protect her immediately rose within Tang San.

"Xiao Wu, I'll listen to you. We'll take the premium room!"

"One room can only accommodate two people. How will the three of you arrange yourselves?"

Watching the three children perform, the attendant suddenly felt like teasing them.

What did it matter that it could only accommodate two people? In truth, as many people as they wanted could stay here, as long as the number was not too outrageous. This was a couples' hotel, after all. She had seen all sorts of people, like that handsome blond man who came here often—he frequently booked a premium room and brought several friends along.

Xiao Wu said awkwardly, "Tang San, how about I stay here by myself, and then you and Li Chen find somewhere else to stay?"

As she spoke, Xiao Wu secretly shot Li Chen a meaningful look.

Tang San looked somewhat regretful. Xiao Wu thought, Damn Tang San. He definitely wants to stay with me. A toad dreaming of swan meat!

"Fine, then we'll find another place. Li Chen, you don't mind, do you?"

Although Tang San felt deeply regretful, he had no intention of going against Xiao Wu's wishes.

Just then, a burst of hearty laughter came from outside the door. "Hahaha! I've never heard of anyone daring to steal Dai Mubai's room!"

The three of them turned toward the entrance together. A tall blond young man entered with an arm around each of a pair of beautiful twin sisters.

Li Chen felt that although the twins were quite attractive, they were still far inferior to Xiao Wu.

Tang San was secretly shocked. He was already a Soul Grandmaster, and he possessed Twin Martial Souls. On top of cultivating the Mysterious Heaven Skill, his Soul Power was far stronger than that of an ordinary Level 21 Soul Master. Yet this young man did not appear much older than them, but he was probably already a Soul Elder. Moreover, he had clearly come with ill intent.

The moment Dai Mubai entered, he spotted Xiao Wu in her JK miniskirt. It had to be said, the outfit suited Xiao Wu perfectly, making her look even more youthful and lively.

Dai Mubai stared until his eyes went straight. The twin girls in his arms instantly became dull and flavorless by comparison. He immediately removed his wandering hands from the two girls, then brushed back his bangs and revealed a very gentlemanly smile.

Enmmm, indeed very gentlemanly.

"Beautiful young lady, I think the two men beside you are unworthy of you. Allow me to introduce myself."

"My name is Dai Mubai. I am currently a Level 37 Assault-type Battle Spirit Elder. I can see that you are also a Soul Master. How about we join forces as the strong?"

What Li Chen despised most was trash like Dai Mubai. Although he was only Level 27 now, his Martial Soul was anything but ordinary, and he had even absorbed a Soul Bone. Teaching Dai Mubai a lesson would be more than easy.

Just as Li Chen was about to release his Martial Soul, a cold voice came from beside him.

"You can bully anyone you want, but if you dare bully Xiao Wu, you're courting death!"

Li Chen sucked in a breath. How had he forgotten? Xiao Wu was Tang San's trigger for going dark. As long as Xiao Wu was hurt, Tang San could enter an invincible state.

But Tang San in the original story had not been Level 21. Back then, Tang San could barely contend with Dai Mubai. Tang San probably could not do it now, right?

Dai Mubai and Xiao Wu across from him both looked somewhat stunned. Clearly, neither of them had known Tang San had this side to him.

Tang San took a step forward.

"Let me test you and see what you're made of."

Dai Mubai was intimidated by Tang San's aura and took a step back.

What worried Dai Mubai was that the aura of the boy before him clearly belonged to a Soul Grandmaster. Even if he could fight above his level, there was basically no way he could defeat Dai Mubai. Dai Mubai was not some ordinary Soul Master.

What worried him was that this boy clearly knew he was no match for him, yet still acted so fearless, as if he was not worried at all. Did he have some backing? Could this boy be a disciple from some reclusive family out on training, with a powerful expert protecting him nearby?

Dai Mubai surveyed the surroundings, but he did not find anyone suspicious.

Then there were only two possibilities. Either this boy had something wrong with his head, or his talent was extraordinarily high and his protector was unfathomably powerful.

He did not dare gamble. A wise man knew when to yield. But just as he was preparing to leave—

He saw a pale white Soul Ring rise behind Tang San, so white it was nearly invisible.

Dai Mubai muttered, "This is the legendary Soul Ring below ten years, said to be as rare as a hundred-thousand-year Soul Ring!"

It was his first time seeing a Soul Ring below ten years. After all, anyone who could become a Soul Master possessed at least some pride. If they joined an academy, then even if their talent was poor, they could still obtain a Soul Ring of several decades. If their talent was truly terrible, they could save up a few Gold Soul Coins and hire someone at the outskirts of the forest to help them.

A Spirit Beast of several decades would not be very expensive either, so ordinary Soul Masters would absolutely never choose a Spirit Beast below ten years. Seeing Tang San's Ten-Year Soul Ring, Dai Mubai felt that this was a sure win.

"Hahaha, hahaha!"

"Kid, are you trying to make me laugh to death?"

"Your Soul Ring is so white it's nearly invisible."

However, Tang San answered Dai Mubai with an attack.

"First Spirit Ability, Blue Silver Entanglement."

The vines in Tang San's hand rapidly grew and shot toward Dai Mubai, seemingly intending to bind him.

To Tang San's surprise, Dai Mubai did not dodge. He simply stood there without moving.

Seeing Blue Silver Grass bind Dai Mubai tightly, Tang San let out a breath of relief.

"Let's see if you still dare bully Xiao Wu now!"

Tang San said through gritted teeth.

But the moment Tang San finished speaking, Dai Mubai broke free in an instant. The Blue Silver Grass burst apart and scattered in every direction.

"H-how is that possible?!" Tang San said blankly.

"My Blue Silver Entanglement was obviously very strong back at the academy. Why is it so weak against you? Oh, right. It's not that my Blue Silver Grass is weak—it's because your Soul Power Level is too high!"

Tang San was still considering why his Blue Silver Grass had become so weak when Dai Mubai's attack struck him.

Bang!

Tang San was sent flying backward!
