Ning Fengzhi, as the sect master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, was exceptionally well-informed.
On the Douluo Continent, the Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul was already exceedingly rare.
Yet for the Nine Heart Begonia to mutate into the Nine Spirits Begonia...
This was the first time anyone had seen it!!
A Martial Soul mutation!
The Nine Heart Begonia was already an immensely powerful Martial Soul.
How terrifying would the Nine Spirits Begonia be!
A Spirit Master possessing the Nine Heart Begonia was an invincible presence on the battlefield!
Without a doubt.
The Nine Spirits Begonia would become the world's number-one Support Spirit in the future. It could even help the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect reach entirely new heights!
"The Nine Spirits Begonia is already incredibly powerful with its group healing enhancement alone. Any force would recruit a Spirit Master with the Nine Spirits Begonia."
"Little Chen has a Mutated Spirit... the Nine Spirits Begonia! If he gains Spirit Rings, then its Strength Boost, Speed Boost, defensive enhancement..."
"Little Chen's future accomplishments are immeasurable. Perhaps... he may even surpass Rongrong." Sword Douluo looked at Ning Fengzhi.
Bone Douluo nodded as well.
How could Ning Fengzhi fail to understand? The Nine Heart Begonia had always been the strongest Support Spirit in the world. It only fell short of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda because there were so few of them.
The mutated Nine Spirits Begonia would be even more powerful!
Furthermore, Ning Fengzhi had watched Ye Chen grow up. How could a child who cultivated so diligently have low achievements in the future?
"From today onward, my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect will spare no expense in nurturing Rongrong and Little Chen."
"If Little Chen can display talent in battle in the future, perhaps we can consider..." Ning Fengzhi glanced at his precious daughter and sighed.
His precious daughter, Ning Rongrong, would have to marry someday. The man she married had to be loyal to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
And Ye Chen was clearly a good candidate.
Of course, that was merely a fleeting thought.
More than anything, it would depend on Ye Chen's future cultivation results.
Ning Fengzhi sighed toward the sky. How wonderful would it be if Ye Chen could truly bring the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to new heights?
Perhaps the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect would undergo tremendous changes because of Ye Chen alone in the future!
Ye Chen's expression remained cold.
After instantly defeating Wang Qingyun, he turned around and walked toward Ning Fengzhi.
A gentle breeze blew, making his white robe flutter as he stood alone.
Ye Chen was not a disciple of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, but having cultivated there since childhood, he had long become accustomed to this life.
Yet where were his father and mother?
Before he could even take a step.
A youth blocked Ye Chen's path.
The instant the youth appeared,
The atmosphere around them changed.
A yellow Spirit Ring circled the youth. He was Wang Qingyun's elder brother, Wang Qiuyun.
"Kneel and apologize."
"You bullied my little brother. What do you think you are?" Wang Qiuyun looked at Ye Chen. He was a twelve-year-old Attack System Soul Master.
Moreover... he had already reached Level Sixteen!
He possessed a hundred year spirit ring.
Among the Attack System Soul Masters cultivating at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Wang Qiuyun was extremely powerful.
At twelve years old, he had reached Level Sixteen and stood out among his peers.
With two Hundred Year Spirit Rings, his strength was unquestionably formidable.
"Brother, beat him up for me."
"A bastard with no father or mother, acting so smug just because he has some talent?" Wang Qingyun spat out a mouthful of blood as he lay to the side, staring at Ye Chen with irrepressible hatred in his heart.
"You're the orphan the sect master took in?" Wang Qiuyun said indifferently. An invisible air of superiority surrounded him; among those his age, no one dared defy him.
The moment he stepped forward, Wang Qiuyun revealed his Spirit Rings. He had clearly come prepared for a battle.
When many disciples saw Wang Qiuyun, they finally revealed faint smiles. They had long grown accustomed to bullying Ye Chen.
In the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, who would stand up for Ye Chen, who had no background whatsoever?
"Ye Chen, can't you understand human speech?"
"I said, kneel and apologize." Wang Qiuyun stepped forward again and looked at Ye Chen. The White Tiger Spirit behind him let out a roar, radiating a terrifying aura.
"So what if Ye Chen has Innate Full Soul Power? He has no background in the end. Now that he's offended Wang Qiuyun, he's in for some suffering."
"Ye Chen is only a Support System Soul Master. How could he possibly be Wang Qiuyun's opponent? Wang Qiuyun is an Attack System Soul Master!"
"Senior Brother Wang Qiuyun can instantly defeat Ye Chen with ease. Even if Ye Chen has Innate Full Soul Power, he'll definitely get beaten."
"If I were Ye Chen, I'd beg for mercy now. Going against Level Sixteen Wang Qiuyun is simply asking to be beaten."
Amid the crowd's mocking laughter, no one thought highly of Ye Chen.
Challenging someone above one's level might still be possible with Spirit Rings or Martial Soul suppression. But in a one-on-one fight, a Support System Soul Master could only passively take hits. This was common knowledge throughout the continent's cultivation world.
Bone Douluo's expression tightened as he wanted to step forward, but Ning Fengzhi stopped him.
Ning Fengzhi watched Ye Chen, feeling increasingly curious... Even though Ye Chen had Innate Full Soul Power, he still refused to retreat even half a step when facing the powerful Wang Qiuyun.
Could Ye Chen be planning to fight Wang Qiuyun?
Wang Qiuyun was not comparable to Wang Qingyun. He possessed Spirit Rings and had six more levels of Soul Power, giving him an absolute advantage in strength.
"Sect Master, Little Chen will suffer." Bone Douluo looked anxiously at Ning Fengzhi, then at Ning Rongrong, who was also filled with concern nearby.
Naturally, Ning Rongrong held no feelings for Ye Chen. They had barely interacted over the past six years; she simply disliked Wang Qiuyun bullying others with his power.
"Little Chen is no ordinary child." Ning Fengzhi looked at Ye Chen's figure.
Of course, he was also testing Ye Chen.
If Ye Chen chose to endure humiliation, he would not be wrong. In fact, it would be the wisest choice. Fighting an Attack System Soul Master meant certain defeat.
Of course, Ning Fengzhi would be disappointed.
Some things could not be endured.
Some things had to be done even at the cost of one's life.
How could one tolerate one's parents being insulted!
If Ye Chen retreated, Ning Fengzhi would not say anything.
However, Ning Fengzhi would never again give him the chance to get close to Ning Rongrong.
And...
Ning Fengzhi always had a feeling that, when everyone believed Ye Chen would lose,
He felt that Ye Chen would create a miracle!
Ning Fengzhi looked toward the sky and recalled two people, a faint trace of anticipation rising in his heart.
Could their child create a miracle in this battle?
The gazes of everyone present gathered on Ye Chen.
Ye Chen stood where he was, raising his eyes to look at Wang Qiuyun.
What kind of gaze was that...
Scarlet red, furious.
Filled with killing intent.
Anything involving his parents was unforgivable.
Ye Chen stepped forward,
And even the ground beneath his feet cracked apart.
The Nine Spirits Begonia appeared in Ye Chen's left hand. The black aura around it grew thicker and fiercer.
Ye Chen possessed only Level Ten Soul Power, and he unleashed all of it.
Without holding anything back!
Nine Spirits Begonia, Strength Boost! Onefold!
Even without a Spirit Ring, Ye Chen could still use a simple Strength Boost on himself.
In an instant, Ye Chen threw a punch straight at Wang Qiuyun's chest!
There was no pointless talk.
A simple punch shot forward explosively.
"Ye Chen, you're truly courting death."
"First Spirit Ability, White Tiger Body Protection Barrier!" The moment Wang Qiuyun entered the fight, he attacked with full force. A pale white halo formed around him, protecting him at its center.
A hint of disdain rested on Wang Qiuyun's lips.
Ye Chen was only Level Ten and a Support System Soul Master. How could he fight him? What could he possibly use to fight him?
Boom!!!
The instant their fists collided,
Ye Chen's pupils turned completely blood-red.
His nature was indifferent, but he still had things he cared about.
He threw another punch!
Nine Spirits Begonia, Strength Boost...
Tenfold!
Fifteenfold!!
Twentyfold!!!!
Ye Chen's face turned pale. The Soul Power in his body was nearly drained, but he did not retreat. This punch contained his full-strength attack.
Crack.
A fracture appeared in the White Tiger Body Protection Barrier.
Wang Qiuyun's once-proud expression turned deathly pale. The smile on his lips froze abruptly.
There was even a trace of bone-deep terror.
How was this possible...
How could this be possible...
He, Wang Qiuyun, was one of the strongest disciples among his peers. At twelve years old, he possessed a hundred year spirit ring.
How powerful was the White Tiger Body Protection Barrier? Even Attack System Soul Masters at the same level would struggle to break it.
Yet...
How had Ye Chen done it?
Wang Qiuyun stared at everything before him in disbelief. Chilled to the bone, he actually felt a trace of fear as he looked at Ye Chen.
Ye Chen seemed like a king, standing high above him and completely suppressing him.
Within Wang Qiuyun's pupils, it seemed that he saw more than just Ye Chen.
He seemed to see... a massive Nine Heart Begonia Flower behind Ye Chen.
And that begonia flower formed a terrifying pressure, pressing down on Wang Qiuyun like Mount Tai.
The White Tiger Body Protection Barrier shattered violently.
Ye Chen's punch struck Wang Qiuyun squarely.
"This is impossible!!!"
"How could I, Wang Qiuyun, lose? Why did I lose?"
Wang Qiuyun sprayed out a mouthful of blood, his body collapsing backward weakly as though his chest had been shattered.
He was a genius of the Wang Family, brimming with confidence as he tried to stand up for Wang Qingyun. Yet the person before him seemed like a God...
He could not believe that, as an Attack System Soul Master with six extra levels of Soul Power, he had still lost!
A crushing defeat!
And an instant defeat... a complete and utter instant defeat.
He had actually been instantly defeated.
"Ye Chen, you dare injure me? My Wang Family will definitely kill you."
"Offend the Wang Family, and I'll make your life worse than death. After all, you bastard will always be a bastard."
"You can defeat me, but can you defeat my clansmen... Hahaha... Come on, hit me. Try hurting me if you dare?"
Wang Qiuyun looked at Ye Chen, arrogance gleaming in his pupils.
Yes, why should he fear a Ye Chen with no background at all?
His parents were both level thirty Spirit Masters. Wouldn't it be easy for them to get rid of Ye Chen?
That was the difference in background.
Seeing Ye Chen stop attacking, Wang Qiuyun revealed a pleased smile. His mind was already filled with thoughts of making Ye Chen kneel before him and suffer his humiliation.
At that moment,
The last shred of reason was instantly crushed.
Ye Chen had originally been unable to kill Wang Qiuyun. Breaking the White Tiger Body Protection Barrier had already consumed most of his Soul Power.
However...
Wang Qiuyun had touched Ye Chen's bottom line.
"You dare speak of my parents?"
"Second Spirit..."
Suddenly...
A cold voice came from Ye Chen's lips.
A thunderous boom resounded through the heavens.
Lightning flashed and thunder roared.
It was as though the entire world was about to undergo a strange phenomenon!
An ancient dragon soul appeared in Ye Chen's right hand.
Ancient dragon roars erupted from within his body.
Thunder crashed beneath the clear sky, and in an instant, fierce winds howled.
An incomparably terrifying aura erupted from behind Ye Chen...
That dragon roar caused a golden dragon soul to flicker within the radiance of Ye Chen's fist...
This was... Dragon Might!
Everyone present felt an immense pressure...
The heavens were undergoing a tremendous change.
Ye Chen's Second Spirit had emerged!
At this moment,
Bone Douluo and Sword Douluo exchanged a glance, surprise flashing through their eyes, then nodded at the same time. Their powerful domain force emerged, directly forming an enormous vortex that isolated everyone within.
They had never expected Ye Chen to possess a Second Spirit!
This was Twin Martial Souls!
And Ye Chen's Second Spirit was even more terrifying!
It was an existence even more domineering than the Nine Heart Begonia!
Defying the heavens... only those words could describe it!
Naturally, such news could not be allowed to reach the world, much less Spirit Hall.
The two Titled Douluo acted at the same time, blocking the outside world's view.
Of course, this was also because Ye Chen had not fully activated his Second Spirit. His current Soul Power was insufficient to unleash the Second Spirit at full strength.
Otherwise, even two Titled Douluo would not have been able to stop it!
If the Second Spirit were unleashed at full power,
the skies across millions of miles would change color because of Ye Chen alone!
Ye Chen's gaze fell upon Wang Qiuyun and Wang Qingyun.
That golden Dragon Might erupted with an ancient aura, gathering upon the radiance of Ye Chen's fist.
At this moment,
Ye Chen's aura was like that of a true giant dragon.
At the center of the domain, Wang Qiuyun and Wang Qingyun unconsciously fell to their knees, their bodies trembling as they prostrated themselves on the ground.
It was not just the two of them—even their Martial Souls knelt on the ground, trembling without end.
When the Azure Dragon emerged, all creation submitted!
"Brother Chen, spare me... I won't dare do it again, I'll never dare again, don't kill me..." Wang Qiuyun knelt on the ground, even his voice trembling. His eyes held nothing but fear.
How could this be...
Was Ye Chen even human...
He actually possessed Twin Martial Souls!
And his Second Spirit was such a terrifying Martial Soul!
It completely surpassed the White Tiger.
Wang Qingyun also dropped to his knees.
Ye Chen looked at the two of them as though they were already dead.
Those who did wrong had to pay the price, and that price was death!
An azure Dragon Might aura surrounded Ye Chen. An overwhelming pressure poured forth, making even the ground tremble faintly!
Ye Chen stood at the center of the fighting platform and waved his hand.
A dragon roar seemed to ring out across the heavens as azure light filled the sky, dazzling to the extreme.
The azure giant dragon seemed to have come from ancient times, as though it could erase everything!
Ancient Dragon Might descended from the heavens alongside terrifying currents of air, carrying boundless killing intent as it slammed head-on toward Wang Qiuyun!
"Second Spirit, Azure Dragon!!!"
