"Let's go. Tonight, we're heading to the Soto Grand Soul Arena."

Ling Feng's voice was low and firm, echoing through the quiet courtyard. His gaze was sharp as he looked at Qian Renxue, his eyes carrying a hint of unquestionable authority.

Qian Renxue frowned slightly, filled with reluctance, but under Ling Feng's overwhelming pressure, she could only nod helplessly in the end.

Seeing this, Ling Feng smiled in satisfaction.

You little brat, think I can't handle you?

Before absolute strength, you'll have to agree even if you don't want to.

Ling Feng turned his head and gave Zhao Yun a meaningful look.

Zhao Yun immediately understood Ling Feng's intention. He slowly put away the White Bird Facing Phoenix Spear in his hand, and the powerful pressure that had filled the courtyard vanished in an instant like receding tidewater.

Qian Renxue and Snake Lance Douluo, who stood at the front, immediately felt the burden on their bodies lighten, and both of them let out a breath of relief.

Qian Renxue raised a hand to wipe the fine cold sweat from her forehead. Recalling the suffocating pressure Zhao Yun had just unleashed, lingering fear still filled her heart.

That pressure had been like a tangible weight, pressing heavily upon both their hearts. It had truly been unbearable.

"Now?"

Qian Renxue's brows knitted even tighter. Ling Feng had completely disrupted her original plans.

She had intended to find an opportunity to slip away after Ling Feng left, but she had not expected him to demand that they head to the Soto Grand Soul Arena right away to participate in a Soul Battle Competition.

"Now."

Ling Feng showed no intention of lingering. He had no interest in caring about Qian Renxue's thoughts. With steady steps, he led Zhao Yun out of the courtyard.

Qian Renxue gritted her teeth and followed helplessly, secretly calculating how she should deal with what came next.

The Soto Grand Soul Arena was located in the south of the Heaven Dou Empire, not far from the courtyard where they were staying.

The atmosphere along the way was especially oppressive.

Qian Renxue followed behind Ling Feng, occasionally stealing glances at his back, her heart full of confusion and dissatisfaction.

Time passed slowly amid the silence, and before long, an hour had gone by.

The sky gradually darkened, and night descended over the entire world like an enormous sheet of black silk.

Ling Feng and the others finally arrived at the Soto Grand Soul Arena.

Before they even approached the Soto Grand Soul Arena, lively sounds could already be heard from within.

The noisy chatter, cheers, and shouts intertwined, like an impassioned symphony.

After all, to Soul Masters, Soul Battles were not merely contests of strength, but exciting events filled with passion and fervor.

Here, Soul Masters could display their strength, win honor and wealth, and continuously improve themselves through battle.

Ling Feng led Qian Renxue into the Grand Soul Arena. The interior of the magnificent building was brightly lit and packed with people.

At the center of the main hall, two Soul Elders were engaged in an intense Soul Battle.

Their martial souls emitted dazzling light, soul rings flashed, and skills collided, drawing wave after wave of cheers from the surrounding audience.

But Ling Feng had no interest in any of it. His goal was clear, and he led Qian Renxue straight toward the front desk.

By now, Qian Renxue had used her soul bone to transform herself into another unfamiliar appearance.

She knew very well that whether she participated in Soul Battles as Qian Renxue or Xue Qinghe, if others discovered her identity, it would bring a series of unpredictable troubles afterward.

Following behind Ling Feng, she silently prayed that nothing unexpected would happen.

Ling Feng skillfully approached the front desk, where a young woman stood before him.

She had a graceful figure and a professional smile on her face. Upon seeing Ling Feng and Qian Renxue, she immediately asked softly, "Are you two here to participate in Soul Battles?"

"That's right. Which team is in the next 2V2 match?"

Ling Feng got straight to the point. He wanted a quick battle and a quick resolution, to complete the task as soon as possible.

In his eyes, not a single Soul Master in the entire Soto Grand Soul Arena could genuinely interest him.

With his strength, if he truly went all out, he likely would not be able to find an opponent who matched him anytime soon.

Therefore, he planned to conceal his strength. Naturally, there was no need for him to release his martial soul.

"Please register your ages and Soul Master ranks first. Only then can we match you with suitable opponents," the receptionist explained with a smile. "If the difference in strength between both sides is too great, a Soul Battle cannot be arranged."

"I only want to know who is participating in the next 2V2 match," Ling Feng said.

"Alright, I'll check for you."

The receptionist did not mind Ling Feng's attitude. She skillfully flipped through the record book in front of her, then said a moment later, "The next 2V2 Soul Battle will be the Three Five Combination."

"The Three Five Combination?"

The instant Ling Feng heard the team name, his eyes lit up.

Immediately afterward, scenes from the original story surfaced in his mind, and a trace of amusement rose within him.

Isn't the Three Five Combination Tang San and Xiao Wu from the original story?

Oh, right.

The Soto Grand Soul Arena was in Suotuo City, while Shrek Academy was very close by.

The Shrek Seven Devils from the original story often fought Soul Battles at the Soto Grand Soul Arena. He had not expected to run into them by such a coincidence this time.

Interesting. Was my luck really that perfect? I actually ran into Tang San and Xiao Wu. Could the system have arranged this deliberately?

Ling Feng silently pondered the restrictions of the task issued by the system.

First, he had to complete the task tonight.

Second, he had to go to the Soto Grand Soul Arena.

It seemed this system wanted to stir something up.

"Fine, then register a team for me and this beauty. Put us directly into the next 2V2 Soul Battle."

Ling Feng pointed at Qian Renxue as he spoke to the receptionist, his tone carrying an air that brooked no refusal.

"To participate in the next Soul Battle, both participants must have Soul Power at the Soul Elder level. Please test your Soul Power."

The receptionist continued to respond in her professional tone, still smiling.

After saying that, she took out a blue crystal ball and placed it on the table, gesturing for Ling Feng and Qian Renxue to test their Soul Power.

Seeing this, Ling Feng raised his hand and gently placed it on the blue crystal ball before him.

He slightly controlled his Soul Power, and a faint blue glow appeared on the crystal ball, showing that his Soul Power had reached level thirty.

Qian Renxue, standing beside him, also used her soul bone's disguise ability to conceal her Soul Power at level thirty.

After seeing that both of their Soul Power levels met the requirement, the receptionist continued, "May I ask what your team is called?"

"Let's call it the Invincible Combination."

Ling Feng rubbed his chin, pretending to be thoughtful as he casually came up with a team name.

"Alright!"

Upon hearing the team name, the receptionist's expression turned helpless, and she could not help laughing bitterly to herself.

These two really did not know the immensity of heaven and earth. They actually chose such an arrogant team name.

Did they not know that in the Grand Soul Arena, the more conspicuous and arrogant a team's name was, the more likely it was to be targeted by other Soul Masters?

Moreover, she could already imagine the miserable state Ling Feng and Qian Renxue would be in during their upcoming battle.

The moment his words fell, Qian Renxue's face darkened. That name had been far too casually chosen.
