Enter the bridal chamber?

At those words, Rongrong's pretty face immediately flushed red.

She coughed softly and said:

"You heard wrong! I said the second one, not the first!"

Unconcerned, Ye Xingchen smiled, rubbed the tip of his nose, and said:

"All right, the second one, then. Maybe I remembered wrong!"

"No backing out!"

Hearing that, the blushing Rongrong immediately caught on.

She knitted her brows and muttered:

"You're so bad! You actually tricked me!"

Chen Xin, who stood nearby, shook his head slightly, coughed, and said:

"What level are you now?"

Smiling broadly, Ye Xingchen nodded and silently opened his personal system interface to take a look:

Host: Ye Xingchen! Constitution: Chaos body, minor completion! Sky Covering Realm: Initial Bitter Sea Shore! Douluo realm: Soul Master Level 18! Martial soul: Heavenly Emperor Cauldron Martial Soul! Storage: One hundred thousand spiritual energy!! Soul skills: Crashing Waves! Ten Thousand Ton Gravity Domain!

Initial Bitter Sea Shore!

Level eighteen soul master!

After examining himself internally, Ye Xingchen was wild with joy!

Absorbing his first soul ring had nearly let him break through to the Soul Grandmaster rank!

If he had a second martial soul to absorb one now, he would believe he could reach level twenty-nine!

The emergence of two soul skills, in particular, made Ye Xingchen itch to try them out.

He looked at Chen Xin and said with a smile:

"Barely a level eighteen soul master. Still too weak..."

A level eighteen soul master?

Too weak?

At those words, Chen Xin's face twitched!

As he recalled, before absorbing his soul ring, this fellow had been a soul master of only a few levels at most, hadn't he?

He had gained more than ten levels just by absorbing a soul ring!

And he still wasn't satisfied?

He still thought he was too weak?

Somewhat speechless, Chen Xin smiled, then chose to remain silent!

Rongrong, meanwhile, formed a little O with her mouth when she learned this.

She looked at the fellow before her and immediately threw herself at him:

"Mwah!"

"That's your reward! You're amazing!"

"You gained more than ten levels in an instant, right? What's your soul skill?"

A little surprised, Ye Xingchen froze for a moment and touched the cheek she had kissed.

He lowered his head to glance at Rongrong, then kissed her back when she wasn't paying attention:

"Returning courtesy with courtesy. That's not going too far, is it?"

"I'll demonstrate my soul skills for you right now..."

Leaving those words behind, Ye Xingchen fled right after the kiss, flying toward the two men on the shore.

"You're awful..."

Frozen in place, Rongrong squeezed her little hands, her blush already spreading down her neck.

Watching that retreating figure in white, her eyes brimmed with love.

A doting smile slowly spread across her rosy face!

"Ahem... Rongrong..."

"It seems your relationship has gotten quite good in the few days since I last saw you..."

Sitting nearby, Chen Xin coughed. Once Ye Xingchen had left, he turned and said with a smile:

"I think going to Shrek Academy might work out!"

Shrek Academy?

Coming back to her senses, Rongrong touched her chin and asked in confusion:

"Grandpa Chen Xin, where is Shrek Academy? Why have I never heard of it?"

"And why do we have to go there?"

Chen Xin smiled calmly, glanced at the fighting below, and said:

"It's your mother's wish..."

Mother?

At those words, Rongrong fell silent.

She turned to look at that figure in white, thinking that this, too, was her mother's wish.

Somewhat puzzled, she nodded and sighed inwardly!

On the shore,

Ye Xingchen stepped onto the shore, looking especially otherworldly amid the snow filling the sky.

He glanced at the two men and said indifferently:

"Are you both coming at me together?"

At those words, Elder Song's expression changed slightly.

Looking at the white-clad figure before him, he said gravely:

"Little fellow, being too hotheaded isn't good."

"Let this old man take you on..."

Unconcerned, Ye Xingchen nodded slightly. With a casual tap, the Cloud Pattern Long Sword appeared in his hand.

Amid the wind and falling snow, a yellow soul ring quietly spread out around him!

The sensation of soul power clinging to his sword made the corners of Ye Xingchen's mouth lift!

Glancing at the White-Bearded Old Man before him, he pushed off with his heels, his entire body turning into an afterimage as he vanished from where he stood.

The next moment, he silently closed in, and a point of silver light instantly thrust forward!

Seeing this, the White-Bearded Old Man, who had his hands behind his back, looked slightly taken aback.

Then he slowly extended his right hand, lightly pinched the sword tip, and said:

"You're certainly quite fast, but the gap between us..."

Before he could finish, the White-Bearded Old Man suddenly felt a crushing gravitational force descend upon his head!

It was as though a mountain had suddenly fallen onto his head!

Ten Thousand Ton Gravity Domain!

Seeing the White-Bearded Old Man distracted, Ye Xingchen withdrew his sword without hesitation and retreated a full ten meters!

"A gravity domain paired with your speed. Indeed... not bad!"

"Unfortunately, Elder Song is a Soul King. You're still rather lacking..."

Watching this, the Golden-Haired Man standing nearby could not help sighing.

Little did he know that Elder Song's face had turned the color of pig liver within the Ten Thousand Ton Gravity Domain!

That sudden gravitational force had forced him to divide his attention to resist it.

And in that brief interval, the sword tip he had pinched slipped free.

The instant it escaped his grip, a force no weaker than a Soul Elder's struck him!

With the two attacks coming one after the other, Elder Song had ended up at a disadvantage.

He glanced at that white-clad figure a short distance away, wariness appearing in his eyes.

He put away all his earlier contempt!

"If someone faced you for the first time, you would probably be invincible among those of the same rank!" Elder Song said:

"Again! I hope you can still hurt me!"

He was hurt?

Hearing this, the Blonde Man's face twitched.

He had thought Elder Song should have held the upper hand in that exchange.

But now it seemed he had been mistaken!

He swallowed, his fear of that white-clad figure growing ever stronger!

"Again!"

His fighting spirit rising higher and higher, Ye Xingchen nodded, and the sword in his hand trembled.

At once, a streak of sword qi formed from soul power and spiritual power slashed forward.

Following close behind, he gave a low shout and charged with the Cloud Pattern Long Sword in hand.

The snow along his path burst apart, instantly obscuring the view!

"So this is that power..."

Seated on Xuanwu's back, Chen Xin slowly rose when he saw that streak of sword qi.

Although this sword qi was pitifully weak to him, the trace of power it contained was difficult to ignore.

As a Titled Douluo, he recognized at a glance that this sword qi was not composed entirely of soul power!

As for what that power was, Chen Xin could only guess that it was what made that person so formidable, allowing him to rival a Soul Elder's strength with his martial soul!

If that power could continue to grow, he dared not imagine how strong this person would become!

"Hiss..."

In the snow, black mist erupted from Elder Song's entire body the instant the sword qi drew near.

He unleashed his Soul King power and shattered it.

He had thought this sword qi was utterly ordinary, but the moment he made contact, he sensed that something was wrong.

With no time to think further, after breaking through the sword qi,

Facing the full-powered blow crashing down upon his head and face, he immediately sucked in a cold breath and steeled himself to meet it head-on!
