"Oh? So it was this. What an unexpected delight."

After sensing the second soul skill of Xiao Wu's hundred-thousand-year soul ring, Lin Feng could not help but reveal a satisfied expression.

The second soul skill of Xiao Wu's hundred-thousand-year soul ring was called Clone. It could create seven clones possessing seventy percent of her own strength, and the original body could switch places with any of the seven clones at any time. It was a life-saving skill that could both fight and flee.

"This Soft Bone Rabbit isn't that strong, but when it comes to soul skills, it really stands in a league of its own. I just wonder whether the Battle Armor can clone itself along with me."

As Lin Feng spoke, his Sixth Soul Ring lit up. Then, seven figures identical to Lin Feng appeared, each one possessing the aura of a low-level Spirit Douluo.

Looking at the seven figures with Spirit Douluo auras, Lin Feng could not help but suck in a breath of cold air.

Although the auras of the seven figures had only just reached the Spirit Douluo realm, they were still Spirit Douluo-level powerhouses.

If he activated Clone while in a Ring Fusion state, then eight Spirit Douluos with hundred-thousand-year single-target attack soul skills would be enough to suppress even a Super Douluo from start to finish.

A hundred-thousand-year soul skill charged up at the Spirit Douluo realm, and a single-target attack at that—its specialty was breaking through defenses at a single point. Unless someone possessed a top-tier defensive martial soul like the Mysterious Nether Turtle, experts with other martial souls would probably be beaten to death given enough time.

The only problem was that this state consumed too much power and could not be sustained for long. However, once he reached Level 70 and condensed a Soul Core, endurance would no longer be much of an issue.

"For now, I still need to end battles quickly, but it doesn't really matter."

After experiencing the second soul skill of Xiao Wu's hundred-thousand-year soul ring, Lin Feng put away the Level 7 Defense Soul Tool he had set up earlier. At the same time, he could not help thinking of the Snow Empress embryo.

He had to obtain that thing. One Evil Emperor and one Snow Empress—if he could absorb both after reaching Level 90, Lin Feng would most likely rise straight to Level 98. Then, with the Qian Yuan Creation Pill, he could break through to Level 99 in one go. After reaching Level 99, he would hunt two generations of Deep Sea Demonic Whale Kings, and Lin Feng would be confident that he could return to his original timeline and break through Level 100 in one fell swoop.

In the timeline where everyone advanced the slowest, Lin Feng could be the one who advanced the fastest.

"But money is a bit of a problem. Mingde Hall in Dou Er is the richest place."

Lin Feng had been born into a fairly decent family. There were both Spirit Douluos and Titled Douluos in his household. If that level of strength had been placed in Dou Yi, there naturally would have been no problem. But Lin Feng had been born after the era of Dou San. Converted to Dou Yi standards, his family was only slightly worse than the Peerless Dragon Snake's family.

That was right, worse than theirs. After all, in Lin Feng's era, gods counted as high-level combat power.

In such a family, Lin Feng had no worries about food or clothing, but his funds were destined to be limited. In fact, merely purchasing several Level 7 Soul Tools had nearly emptied his pockets.

"Brother Lin Feng, aren't you coming to eat?"

Just as Lin Feng was thinking about how to make money, a pleasant female voice suddenly came from outside the door.

When Lin Feng opened the door, he found the little princess of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Ning Rongrong, standing there. Beside her were Zhu Zhuqing and Oscar, who had been beaten up and looked rather miserable.

"Why are you three hanging around together again?" Lin Feng asked instinctively when he saw Ning Rongrong, Oscar, and Zhu Zhuqing together.

"Zhuqing wanted to join the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and I agreed. As for him, he looked pitiful after getting beaten up, so I invited him to come to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect too."

Lin Feng looked at Oscar.

People on Douluo Continent did not have many malicious intentions aside from being love-struck fools. Otherwise, when faced with a soul master like Oscar who could threaten the status of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda, their first reaction would not have been to recruit him, but to eliminate him.

"Enough about that. Brother Lin Feng, do you have anything to do next? If it's convenient, I'd like to invite you to visit the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. Of course, if you dislike restraints and do not want to go to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, that's fine too. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect merely wants to be friends with you. It would be even better if we were fortunate enough to help you in some way."

Ning Rongrong affectionately called him brother. Zhao Wuji had been beaten like a dog, while Ma Hongjun and Dai Mubai had directly died because of Shrek's school motto, "Those who dare not cause trouble are mediocre." On top of that, she had previously discovered that even if she wanted to run, she could not escape at all, and that his so-called running lessons were purely meant to torment people. She felt that so-called Shrek was complete garbage.

Shrek's PUA had completely failed. She was still the little witch of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

And as the little witch of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, she could run slowly, and she could slack off in cultivation, but!

She absolutely had to know how to judge people.

She knew better than anyone what kind of people could be offended, what kind could not be offended, what kind needed to be befriended, and how to build closer ties with them.

She was not sure whether Lin Feng's appearance truly matched his real age, but since he presented himself as young, that meant he did not like being treated as an old man. Therefore, Ning Rongrong chose to call him brother in order to close the distance between them.

Seeing Ning Rongrong's affectionate manner, Lin Feng was not displeased by it. In fact, he quite liked it, because he truly needed the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's help right now.

So after a brief moment of thought, Lin Feng spoke directly. "Can you lend me some money?"

Seeing that Lin Feng had not objected to her form of address, Ning Rongrong knew she had bet correctly. Without hesitation, she immediately agreed. "Of course. I just wonder how much Brother Lin Feng needs?"

"I need..." Lin Feng stopped halfway through, suddenly realizing that the amount he needed was a little unreasonable.

To purchase the Snow Empress embryo, he needed more than 150 million Gold Soul Coins. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect was indeed wealthy, and perhaps they really could produce more than 150 million Gold Soul Coins. But the question was, were the strength and talent he had displayed really worth more than 150 million Gold Soul Coins for a single favor?

Putting himself in their shoes, Lin Feng felt that he would not give more than 150 million Gold Soul Coins to someone who had defeated a Soul Sage.

Thinking this, Lin Feng changed his wording. "How much can you provide? Lend it to me first. Later, I may discuss a business deal with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect."

Upon hearing that, Ning Rongrong immediately took out a gold card. "Brother Lin Feng, there are two million Gold Soul Coins in here. Take it and use it. As for paying it back, there's no need. Consider it a small token of goodwill from me in becoming friends with you."

Lin Feng silently accepted the gold card Ning Rongrong handed him. "Th-this... how could I possibly accept that?"

"It's only a token gesture."

Elsewhere, Shrek Academy.

"Dean, are you saying that my father is a Titled Douluo?"

"That's right. Not long ago, I met Haotian Your Excellency."

Tang San fell silent. Thinking about how he had nearly lost his life when hunting his first soul ring, suspicion could not help rising in his heart.

Could the child of a Titled Douluo face a life-or-death crisis over their first soul ring? Was this really how children were raised?
