Zi Yao slowly raised his head.

He seemed not to have expected Wang Dong to reveal her identity so easily.

Yet judging by Wang Dong's appearance,

it seemed that Tang San had still sealed away her memories when she descended to the lower realm. Who knew when they would recover.

"And you? Which Hidden Sect sent you?"

Wang Dong asked softly.

"I don't come from any sect or faction."

Zi Yao shook his head.

"Really?"

"I have no interest in lying."

"Then why not join our Clear Sky Sect?"

"Not interested."

Zi Yao refused bluntly and ate the last piece of Savage Beef. The meat was tender and smooth.

After eating,

the two returned to their respective Dormitories to rest.

Zi Yao sat cross-legged on his bed, quietly preparing to unlock the first Spiritual Seal.

Sky Dream Ice Silkworm had left nine seals within his body. Each time one was broken, a massive amount of Spiritual Power Origin would flood into his Sea of Consciousness.

Therefore,

only after he completely refined this portion of Origin could he draw in the next seal.

"As expected of a Million-Year Soul Beast. Even the first seal, containing only half its Origin, is enough to fill my entire Sea of Consciousness."

He praised.

He remained awake throughout the night.

The next day, morning light streamed through the window and scattered across the room.

Zi Yao opened his eyes. Rather than feeling exhausted after refining all night, he felt invigorated by the tremendous increase in his Spiritual Power.

There was no need to worry about his physical strength either. The Blue Silver Emperor Bloodline would replenish it for him at any time.

Sleeping for just one or two hours a day was more than enough.

"As my Soul Power rises, the Life Origin and Destruction Origin are growing stronger as well."

He sighed, sensing the approaching danger.

Before Rank 30,

the Blue Silver Emperor had helped him initially stabilize the conflict between the Life Destruction Origins, but that was merely a temporary measure.

After all, he had been far too weak before Rank 30. He had not even been qualified to attempt mastering and cultivating the two Origin Powers.

Especially the Destruction Origin Power.

Even now, he did not dare use it carelessly. The ultimate Destruction Power was simply too terrifying. Before he fully mastered it, injuring an enemy would also mean injuring himself.

Even his father, the Destruction God King, had failed to completely master that Super Divine Weapon—the Scepter of Destruction.

He recalled the Tai Chi Diagram he had observed when awakening his Martial Soul.

Heaven and earth gave rise to Yin Yang.

At the extreme of Yang lay Yin, and at the extreme of Yin lay Yang. This was the way of balance between the Two Forms.

Yin Yang were, in truth, one entity.

The same was true of life and destruction.

If he wanted to completely master the two Origin Powers, he had to begin with the Yin Yang of Tai Chi.

He had practiced Tai Chi in his previous life as well.

After transmigrating, he had tried it many times, but the results had been far from ideal.

Come to think of it,

the Tai Chi he had learned was the same kind old men and old women practiced by park lakesides for exercise. It might be fine for strengthening the body and cultivating one's temperament, but using it to balance life and destruction was wishful thinking.

Even the Mysterious Heaven Skill had come from a wuxia world. At least that world had something akin to Internal Force, allowing it to be fully adapted to Soul Power in this world.

"Looks like I'll have to create my own cultivation method..."

Zi Yao had a headache.

A cultivation method meant to harmonize Yin Yang was absolutely a top-tier technique. No matter how brilliant he was, creating one from scratch would take an enormous amount of time.

By then, the grass on his grave would probably be three zhang tall.

"I remember the Mysterious Heaven Skill has the power to harmonize and balance. I can use it for reference when I have time."

He thought as he got up and dressed.

After ten thousand years of development, the cultivation methods of the Douluo Continent had grown ever stronger. This was one of the reasons geniuses cultivated increasingly quickly.

But like the Blue Silver Emperor, the Mysterious Heaven Skill could benefit from every era's advancements.

He had to draw upon the strengths of countless schools and create a cultivation method that belonged solely to him.

He left his room to brush his teeth and wash up.

The other door slowly opened as well. Wang Dong walked out in pink pajamas, clutching a plush pillow. Her hair was a mess, and her exquisite features looked incredibly sleepy. She yawned and said,

"Zi Yao, you're up so early? Didn't they say school wouldn't start for a few days?"

"I want to try out some of the training facilities at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy," Zi Yao explained calmly.

"You're working way too hard. No wonder I'm no match for you."

Wang Dong rubbed her eyes and spoke gently as she walked toward the bathroom.

"Could you step out for a moment? I need to use the toilet."

"Mm."

Zi Yao turned to look at her and slightly raised his brows.

After developing through her Soul Rings and Soul Power, the girl had a very nice figure. Her loose pajamas could not conceal her curves, and beneath her fair collarbones, two modestly rounded hills rose slightly.

After a rush of water,

Wang Dong walked to the sink, bent down, and splashed water over her face. Just as she was admiring her peerless beauty, the bouncing little rabbits caused by bending over caught her attention.

After several seconds of silence,

she finally remembered that she had removed her disguise before going to sleep last night.

After all, although she and Zi Yao shared a Dormitory, they did not share the same room. Nothing should have happened.

Who would have thought that after waking up, she would forget all about it?

She awkwardly pushed the door open, held the plush toy in front of her chest, and blushed in embarrassment as she tentatively asked, "Y-you... you didn't notice anything just now, did you?"

Zi Yao was speechless.

Even if he had not noticed before, her blatantly guilty behavior would have made him suspect something.

"Actually, I exercise my body regularly, so my Pectoral Muscles are rather exaggerated..." Wang Dong said, pursing her lips.

"Please don't treat me like an idiot."

Zi Yao's face twitched.

Is she insulting my intelligence?

If there really were an exercise method like that, the Ice Empress would probably be more than willing to learn it.

Wang Dong buried her whole face in the plush toy.

This guy really did see it!

What should she do? Threaten him with force to keep the secret?

The problem was, she could not beat him!

Seeing her helpless appearance,

Zi Yao became interested.

He wondered whether Tang San in the God Realm would jump in panic if he said, "You wouldn't want anyone to find out about your secret of disguising yourself as a boy, would you?"

"Don't worry. I won't go around telling people your secret, and I have no interest in using this as leverage against you."

He added calmly, "Besides, I already knew you were a girl yesterday."

"Ah? Was my disguise that obvious?"

Wang Dong lifted her head from the plush toy. Her entire face was as red as a ripe persimmon. It was impossible to tell whether it was from being stuffy or embarrassed.

"The Light Goddess Butterfly, the most beautiful butterfly Martial Soul on the continent, can also be considered one of the most beautiful Martial Souls on the continent."

"Its greatest characteristic is that it only appears in women and can never be awakened by men."

Zi Yao explained indifferently.

Her Martial Soul was Wang Dong's greatest flaw. If she had used the Clear Sky Hammer, perhaps she could have disguised herself better.

"You knew, yet yesterday you still..."

Wang Dong widened her beautiful eyes.

Halfway through speaking, she lost her nerve, and her voice became as soft as a mosquito's buzz.

Zi Yao had pinched her cheek yesterday. Looking at it from a girl's perspective, was that not teasing?

And from a boy's perspective... that would be even stranger!

That was also what she had never been able to figure out.
