Whale Rubber Is Good Stuff

When it came to Soul Master cultivation.

This Super Douluo, Su Wuyan, focused Su Qiu's instruction mainly on combat.

Drawing on years of battle experience and a Super Douluo's perspective, Su Wuyan integrated his own Martial Soul, Soul Skills, and various combat techniques.

He created an Ultimate Skill.

Instant Meteor Star.

It was a purely combat-oriented Ultimate Skill. Its greatest characteristic was exploiting strength to crush weakness!

Use one's strengths to attack the enemy's weaknesses.

Use speed against slowness, strength against weakness, and superiority against inferiority.

These represented speed, power, and Martial Soul traits. As long as one possessed an advantage in any one of those aspects, even if it was only by the slightest margin, this Ultimate Skill could seize that tiny flaw and magnify it without limit.

However, Su Wuyan had yet to perfect this Ultimate Skill. After all, he had only created it within the past few years.

His purpose was to expand the suppressive advantage his light attribute held over Evil Soul Masters.

There were still many shortcomings, but it was enough for Su Qiu to study for a long time. Once his horizons broadened in the future, he could use it as a foundation to create an Ultimate Skill of his own.

With every day so fulfilling, time flew by.

Three years later.

Eastsea City Blacksmith Association.

A strange conversation came from one room.

"Su Qiu, can eating this really improve my blacksmithing?"

"Stop talking. Keep eating."

If Mu Chen had been there, he probably would have flown into a rage and charged in to beat Su Qiu senseless.

This Little Blondie was tricking his daughter again.

"I... I can't eat anymore. I'm stuffed."

"Tsk, if you can still talk, you can still eat. Keep going, I have plenty more."

Holding processed Whale Rubber, Su Qiu stuffed piece after piece into Mu Xi's mouth.

"Your technique is already about there. The only thing you're lacking is strength. This Whale Rubber can improve your Body Strength."

"Once your strength improves and you spend some time adapting, you'll be able to make a run for Level 3 Blacksmith."

Stimulated by Su Qiu, Mu Xi's blacksmithing had advanced by leaps and bounds over the past few years. She had now reached the threshold of a Level 3 Blacksmith.

"Speaking of which, I don't get it. Teacher can see this problem too, so why hasn't he given you Whale Rubber?"

After swallowing the Whale Rubber, Mu Xi failed to notice the unnatural blush rising on her face. She asked in confusion, "Dad said I'm still too young, and that eating Whale Rubber would have a bad effect?"

"That's it?"

It was only a passion-inducing side effect, nothing serious. Su Qiu said unconcernedly, "I'll secretly bring you some to eat from now on. It'll be fine."

"Absorb these first. Next time, I'll bring you some Thousand-Year Whale Rubber. Once the thousand-year kind stops working, I'll give you ten-thousand-year Whale Rubber."

"My Uncle has tons of this stuff."

Sitting cross-legged, Mu Xi prepared to circulate her Meditation Method and absorb the medicinal effects. At the same time, she asked awkwardly, "Su Qiu, why are you so good to me? Even though... even though I used to treat you like that..."

After her confidence had been shattered by Su Qiu's talent at the beginning, Mu Xi had practically come to pick fights with him every day, competing with him in blacksmithing from every angle. Even though she lost every time, she refused to accept it.

"Because I'm bored." Su Qiu did not feed her any smooth nonsense and chose to tell the truth.

"Training every day is too boring. It's pretty interesting whenever you come looking for trouble."

He had never taken Mu Xi's provocations to heart. It was just a child's refusal to admit defeat. Besides, every time he made Mu Xi so angry that she stamped her feet, it was rather fun.

"Only because of that?"

"What else?"

Mu Xi fell silent. Puffing out her cheeks, she huffed and lowered her head to absorb the Whale Rubber.

Su Qiu, beside her, did not care in the slightest. He gathered his focus and remained fully alert, preventing any accidents during her absorption.

Su Qiu understood what Mu Xi meant. After years of spending time together, this girl had developed feelings for him.

But he chose to ignore it.

He was only nine years old, after all!

Mu Xi was only thirteen as well.

Little brats should just enjoy their childhood and cultivate Soul Power. Why were their minds full of romance and love?

This damned romance continent.

The room fell quiet again. As Mu Xi continuously absorbed the Whale Rubber, she increasingly felt her entire body grow hot and restless.

The Whale Rubber's side effects began to take effect.

Once the absorption was complete, Mu Xi opened her eyes. Her head felt dizzy, and she did not know what was happening to her. She only felt parched and dry.

"Water... no, not just water..."

Noticing Su Qiu beside her, she reached out with hazy, seductive eyes, following the impulse in her heart.

Su Qiu had long been prepared. He clapped his hands together and shouted, "Great Waterfall Technique!"

Waves suddenly surged from nowhere inside the room, crashing over Mu Xi layer after layer.

Su Qiu's Soul Power Level had now reached level 32. It should have been higher.

However, he possessed extreme attributes. After level 30, his Soul Power cultivation had slowed, greatly reducing his advancement speed. He had been stuck at level 32 for a long time.

Like when it had first condensed Soul Rings, his Holy Spear Martial Soul had automatically condensed special Soul Rings at levels 20 and 30, allowing him to respectively master the water element and fire element.

He did not know why, but it was extremely useful.

The water currents washing over Mu Xi were a manifestation of his control over the water element.

As for the Great Waterfall Technique.

He had just shouted it on a whim.

After the first wave washed over her, Mu Xi's mind went blank.

After the second, she regained her clarity.

After the third, having come to her senses and realized what had just happened, she endured her embarrassment and shouted.

"Stop! Hurry... glug glug... stop!"

Hearing that, Su Qiu moved his mind.

The layered waves vanished.

The water stains left in the room proved that everything just now had truly happened.

Her thin, cool clothes clung tightly to Mu Xi's body, damp and translucent, revealing her slender waist.

Her Golden Ponytail had been thrown into disarray by the water, while droplets slowly rolled down her fair, tender skin.

Huh?

Su Qiu could not help taking several hard looks.

As expected of Douluo Continent. She already had such a figure at thirteen.

"I... I'll go change clothes." Mu Xi covered her burning-red face with both hands and ran out.

"Oh, her speed has improved a lot."

Su Qiu pondered it. A few more intense rounds should allow Mu Xi's strength to reach Thousand Forging.

Mu Xi, however, was focused on something entirely different.

She finally understood why her father had refused to let her use Whale Rubber.

Under its side effects, she had actually developed all kinds of unspeakable thoughts about Su Qiu just now.

And that had only been ordinary Whale Rubber.

Su Qiu had said he would give her thousand-year and ten-thousand-year kinds later.

What would she become by then?

Her mind was full of filthy thoughts.

After Mu Xi changed her clothes and dried her hair before returning.

The two fell into a stretch of silence in the room.

The girl was embarrassed by what had just happened.

The boy was simply thick-skinned and lost in thought.

"Um, Su Qiu, you're going to Eastsea Academy in a few days, right?" Mu Xi took the initiative to find a topic.

"Aren't you going directly to Shrek Academy? With your strength, you definitely qualify."

"It's too early." Su Qiu shook his head. "Let's wait a little longer."

Shrek Academy was still worth visiting.

It was the Federation's largest gathering place for talent.

Whether it was the quality of its teachers or the connections it could provide, going to Shrek was a good choice.

Of course, the main reason was that Su Qiu had nowhere else to go. He could only build his own force.

His goal was to eliminate all Evil Soul Masters.

There was something wrong with the Spirit Pagoda, and Qian Gu Dong Feng was colluding with the Holy Spirit Cult. Continuing to stay in the Spirit Pagoda made him uncomfortable.
