Oscar and Ning Rongrong ran laps around the village together.

After one lap, Oscar saw Ning Rongrong and wanted to show off a little.

He recited an incantation and summoned a sausage, intending to give it to Ning Rongrong so she could recover her Soul Power.

Ning Rongrong did not accept Oscar's kindness. Instead, she used her martial soul ability to enhance herself and ran even faster than Oscar.

However, Ning Rongrong did not finish all twenty laps.

She was a pampered young lady.

At home, she did whatever she pleased and always had people backing her up. She had even earned the nickname "Little Demoness."

Now that she was being told to run twenty laps, of course she had no intention of finishing them all.

At first, she merely put on an act. Once she grew tired, she gave up.

When Oscar finished his twenty laps, Ning Rongrong returned with him.

Flender saw through Ning Rongrong's deception.

Although he knew she was the young lady of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, he still gave her a harsh scolding.

He even added to her punishment, ordering her to run another twenty laps.

Ning Rongrong was deeply dissatisfied.

Flender ignored Ning Rongrong and led Tang San and the others to Suotuo City.

Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

Seeing Ning Rongrong's behavior on the Sky Screen, Ning Fengzhi could not help frowning.

From the moment Ning Rongrong appeared on the Sky Screen, he had known that she was his daughter.

It was just that this daughter of his was not turning out very well.

Had he neglected her upbringing, or had he spoiled her too much?

Ning Fengzhi felt it was necessary to strengthen his daughter's education. He could not let her become like the one shown on the Sky Screen.

"Fengzhi, our daughter doesn't seem very well-behaved. How did you educate her?" Madam Ning struck first.

"It was my fault." Ning Fengzhi did not argue and directly admitted his mistake. "Once our daughter is born, I will educate her properly."

The not-yet-born Ning Rongrong had no idea what cruel education awaited her in the future.

Clear Sky Sect.

The brothers Tang Xiao and Tang Hao discussed the backgrounds of the students at Shrek Academy.

"That little girl named Ning Rongrong has the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda martial soul. She's from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect," Tang Hao said.

There was no need to guess. Just as the Clear Sky Hammer martial soul had to belong to the Clear Sky Sect, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda martial soul naturally belonged to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

"Why would someone from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect go to such a mediocre-looking academy? I really don't know what they were thinking." Tang Xiao frowned, unable to understand the thoughts of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's master.

At such a young age, Ning Rongrong already possessed strength above level twenty. She was clearly an important member of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

Perhaps she was even the next generation's heir.

Instead of properly nurturing the next heir, they had sent her out to study at such a young age.

What kind of ridiculous move was that?

The Clear Sky Sect did not allow its younger generation to roam the world freely. They only permitted them to do so after they had reached a certain level of strength, such as Soul King or above.

Yet Ning Rongrong was merely a Soul Grandmaster of a little over level twenty, and they dared let her go out alone to study.

Although guards were surely hidden in the shadows, Ning Rongrong was the only one visible in the open.

"Besides that little girl from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, there are also two people from the Star Luo Empire." Tang Hao recognized Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing's origins.

If there had only been Dai Mubai, it might not have been possible to identify where they came from.

But with Zhu Zhuqing added to the mix, it was much easier to tell.

"Dai Mubai's White Tiger, Zhu Zhuqing's Hell Spirit Cat, and their familiar relationship all indicate that they come from the Star Luo Empire's imperial family and ducal household," Tang Hao said.

"If we add your son, then each of the Upper Three Sects has two people there." Tang Xiao was surprised.

"Have you forgotten his teacher?" Tang Hao curled his lip and said unhappily, "Yu Xiaogang, the son of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's patriarch."

"Well then, all the Upper Three Sects have gathered at Shrek Academy. Interesting! Truly interesting!" Tang Xiao sensed something.

He was not entirely certain.

For the time being, he could only keep it to himself.

He would wait and see whether he could think of anything else.

"Ma Hongjun's mutated martial soul looks quite formidable, and that Oscar is actually a food-system soul master with Innate Full Soul Power." Tang Hao said excitedly, "If Oscar has already been born, we must bring him in and nurture him properly. In the future, a food-system soul master at the level of a Title Douluo will surely emerge."

"Stop daydreaming." Tang Xiao shattered Tang Hao's unrealistic fantasy. "What the Sky Screen is showing is a future several decades from now. That food-system soul master with Innate Full Soul Power named Oscar hasn't even been born yet. Perhaps even his parents haven't been born."

"Big Brother, couldn't you have waited until I was done being happy before telling me?" Tang Hao said resentfully.

Suotuo City, Great Soul Arena.

This was where Flender had brought Dai Mubai and the others.

His so-called teaching was to make monsters train like monsters—by fighting at the Great Soul Arena.

Winning not only earned them money, but also improved their combat experience.

Killing two birds with one stone!

Under Flender's guidance, everyone who arrived at the Great Soul Arena registered their identities.

Xiao Wu also registered a team with Tang San.

Not long afterward, Xiao Wu, who had just registered as a newcomer, received her first soul battle.

She eagerly went to the soul battle platform and easily claimed victory.

After Xiao Wu, it was Tang San's turn.

Tang San's opponent was Zhu Zhuqing.

Zhu Zhuqing was no match for Tang San and was ultimately defeated by his Mother's Embrace.

Holy Spirit Village.

The villagers, who had never watched soul battles before, were now treated to a feast for the eyes.

They watched two consecutive, thrilling soul battles.

Lin Xianyu was also observing the two soul battles, enriching her own combat experience.

She had already transmigrated and gained a golden finger, while her strength was growing day by day.

For now, she could keep it hidden, but she could not conceal it forever.

Sooner or later, her strength would be exposed.

And when that day came, if her combat experience was insufficient and she encountered an enemy weaker than herself but rich in battle experience, she might very well suffer a setback.

Lin Xianyu had no intention of capsizing in a gutter.

For now, she observed soul battles and learned about various tactics.

Later, she could go to the arena to further enrich her combat experience.

Once she had exhausted every online means of improving her combat experience, she could arrange some offline training as well.

Lin Xianyu planned to participate in soul battles at a soul arena.

However, a small city like Nuoding City did not have a soul arena.

If she wanted to take part in soul battles, she could only go to a large city.

But Lin Xianyu did not want to go to a large city. She wanted to remain in Holy Spirit Village.

She was troubled by this now, unless the Sky Screen System could give her some kind of cheat that fulfilled her needs.

Lin Xianyu felt that the possibility was not very high.

For the time being, she had no intention of leaving Holy Spirit Village.

One reason was that she was too young, and the other was that she was too weak.

As a child, no matter what she did, she would not be taken seriously.

Once she left Holy Spirit Village, what awaited her would not be a good outcome.
