Wang Dong'er looked at Wang Qiu'er with some surprise. How did she know so much? She didn't recognize a single one of these Soul Bones.
"How do you know so much? When we lived together, I never saw you reading any books." Wang Dong'er was baffled. When had she started studying so hard?
Wang Qiu'er shot Wang Dong'er a glance. "Some people don't just slack off when it comes to cultivation; they're also woefully ignorant of the basics."
"Honestly, I'm worried about your future!"
As she spoke, Wang Qiu'er placed her slender hand on Wang Dong'er's smooth shoulder, looking every bit like a big sister disappointed in her little sister.
Wang Dong'er flushed with anger. "Stop acting like my big sister. We're not even real sisters. What are you getting at?"
Wang Qiu'er smiled calmly. "I'm telling you to read more and work harder at cultivation!"
"You... Just you wait. Once I've memorized all the ancient books at home, you'll be no match for me."
Wang Dong'er refused to lose to that girl. She'd cultivate hard and study properly!
Huo Yuhao interrupted them. "It's a good thing Dong'er wants to improve. Let's finish dividing these six Soul Bones first!"
"Works for me. I'll take those two strength-type Soul Bones!"
"I want the two with light attributes!"
Huo Yuhao used his Soul Power to draw the four Soul Bones into his hands. "Here you go! Are you planning to absorb them here?"
"Of course we should use good stuff as soon as possible!"
"Then we'll borrow your room for a bit, Yuhao."
Wang Qiu'er asked, "Are you going to absorb any?"
Huo Yuhao shook his head. "To be honest, I'd already absorbed two exceptionally high-quality Soul Bones before I met you."
"My body is pretty much at its limit for now. I need to wait a while!"
Wang Dong'er nodded. "Then sorry for the trouble, but please stand guard for us."
"Sure!"
As Huo Yuhao watched, Wang Dong'er and Wang Qiu'er took off their shoes, revealing their slender feet in white socks. They sat cross-legged and began absorbing their Soul Bones.
Wang Dong'er chose the Golden Glow Left Arm Bone, while Wang Qiu'er chose the Lion Tiger Power Right Arm Bone.
By dawn, Wang Dong'er and Wang Qiu'er had both finished fusing with their chosen Soul Bones.
Huo Yuhao asked them, "How do you feel?"
Wang Dong'er exhaled a breath of stale air. "I feel great. This Soul Bone gave me a support-type skill that can strengthen my Soul Skills."
"How much stronger? We'll have to test it in a real fight to find out!"
Her beautiful Goddess of Light Butterfly Wings spread open, and Wang Dong'er said excitedly, "It can also restore my Soul Power when I use Martial Soul Possession."
"It doesn't restore that much, but it should still let me last longer than before."
"Hmph. If we fought again, Yuhao, I'd last longer than I did last time."
Wang Qiu'er remained calm. "The skill this Soul Bone gave me is also a support-type Soul Skill."
"But it boosts both strength and Soul Power, by about eighty percent!"
Wang Dong'er was astonished. "How can you know the exact number? You haven't even tested it yet!"
Wang Qiu'er remained composed. "Use the Soul Bone Skill together with your Soul Skill, but don't release it. Then you'll know the exact number."
"But that takes a lot of control. I won't be able to do that until I reach Soul Elder!" Wang Dong'er said.
Afraid the two of them would start arguing again, Huo Yuhao hurriedly said, "Qiu'er, Dong'er, let's stop discussing the skills for now. How much did these two Soul Bones increase your Soul Power?"
"I was at level 26 before. It raised me by two levels, so I'm now at the peak of level 28," Wang Dong'er said.
Wang Qiu'er went next. "My Soul Power was level 32 before. Now I've just reached level 34."
"Not bad! You both got a lot out of them!"
"Today's Friday, too. By tonight, you'll have finished absorbing both Soul Bones."
"Want to go to the Douluo Arena this weekend and try out your new Soul Skills?"
"Sure!"
"I want to test the power of my new Soul Skill, too."
Wang Dong'er and Wang Qiu'er exchanged a glance. They hadn't forgotten the humiliation of losing to Huo Yuhao last time.
Tomorrow would be the perfect time to get their revenge!
"All right, it's time for class. Let's go."
Huo Yuhao, already wearing his shoes, didn't notice the strange looks Wang Dong'er and Wang Qiu'er were giving him.
The day's classes passed quickly. That evening, Wang Qiu'er and Wang Dong'er returned to Huo Yuhao's dorm room to absorb their second Soul Bones.
The next day, it was around nine o'clock.
Shrek Douluo Arena.
Huo Yuhao took out a gold card. "Hello. I'd like a private Soul Fighting room, please."
Over the past ten thousand years, the Douluo Arena had changed from what it had been ten thousand years ago, when people fought simply for the sake of fighting.
As the times changed, the arena had branched out into many different services.
For example, for customers who wanted to fight but didn't want to be stared at like monkeys on a stage,
the Douluo Arena thoughtfully offered private Soul Fighting rooms. Once you paid, they wouldn't interfere with anything you did inside.
After paying, Huo Yuhao and the disguised Wang Qiu'er and Wang Dong'er were led to a door.
A woman in her early twenties, attractive in both appearance and figure, greeted them.
"Esteemed guests, this is our Room Three, opened for your use. The room is yours for the next day. Here's your key card."
Huo Yuhao took the card, thanked her, then turned and entered the Soul Fighting room with Wang Dong'er and Wang Qiu'er.
Wang Dong'er and Wang Qiu'er removed their hats and masks, revealing matching pinkish-blue hair and delicate oval faces.
Huo Yuhao surveyed the room. It was spacious, with a huge arena in the middle.
The arena was black all over, with a deep, shadowy gleam.
Huo Yuhao recognized the material it was made from at a glance.
Wugang Steel, an exceptionally hard, refined steel that could perfectly withstand attacks from Soul Masters below the Soul Saint rank.
Huo Yuhao swept his gaze around again and spotted a resting area in the lower-left corner.
It consisted of a sofa made from the hide of some kind of Soul Beast and a table of valuable material.
"Dong'er, Qiu'er, do you want to rest a bit, or should we get started?" Huo Yuhao asked.
Wang Qiu'er shook her head. "I'm not tired. Dong'er, do you need a rest?"
Wang Dong'er clenched her dainty fist. "I'm not tired either. Let's start."
Huo Yuhao nodded. "Then do you want to fight me, or fight each other?"
Wang Dong'er and Wang Qiu'er had already agreed on an answer in class.
"We'll both fight you!" ×2
Before Huo Yuhao could refuse, Wang Dong'er and Wang Qiu'er moved in close on either side of him.
Their soft lips brushed near his ears, while their delicate, jade-like fingers crept up his chest.
"Are you scared?"
"If you win, there'll be a reward!"
Huo Yuhao wrapped an arm around each of their slender waists, his hands wandering.
"Scared? I wouldn't mind reclaiming my place as the head of the household today."
"Then bring it on!"
"Let's see what you've got, big brother!"
Wang Dong'er and Wang Qiu'er's eyes shone with barely restrained excitement. They'd hooked him, just as planned. Men!
