"You won."

The Ice Dragon King's indifferent voice carried over, and the tone made the Fire Dragon King feel uncomfortable no matter how he heard it.

"Can't be bothered to argue with an ice block like you. Friend, what year is it currently on Douluo Continent?"

"I don't know either."

Danheng shook his head. As someone who had come from beyond the heavens, how could he know the exact year here?

"Huh?"

Danheng told the two Dragon Kings about his identity as a visitor from beyond the heavens. After hearing his explanation, both Dragon Kings fell silent.

".No wonder Your Excellency's power is so formidable. In the world beyond the heavens, you must be a top-tier expert as well, right?"

After a long silence, the Ice Dragon King was ultimately the first to speak.

"I wouldn't call myself top-tier. I'm merely an unknown traveler."

On the Xianzhou, his strength might be considered powerful, but in the vast galaxy, he was exceedingly insignificant.

"Er, haha, Friend is truly modest. The nobility of your bloodline is absolutely unparalleled anywhere on Douluo Continent!"

Seeing the atmosphere grow awkward again, the Fire Dragon King hurriedly laughed it off.

"Mister Danheng."

Just then, Dugu Bo walked over, his expression somewhat serious.

"What is it?"

The two Dragon Kings fell silent at just the right moment, while Danheng turned his head toward him in confusion.

"Please take a look at this."

Dugu Bo handed a letter to Danheng. After opening and reading it, Danheng's reaction was calm.

"I understand."

This was another letter Dugu Bo had found outside his room when he went to Heaven Dou City, and it was still written by Prince Xue Xing.

Originally, he had wanted to toss it straight into the trash, but after reconsidering, he decided to read it. He wanted to send Prince Xue Xing packing as soon as possible, lest he continue bothering him later.

But upon reading it, he discovered that the person Prince Xue Xing had wanted killed in his previous letter was actually Danheng!

This gave Dugu Bo quite a fright. What status did Prince Xue Xing have? What strength did he possess? He dared make a move against Danheng?

Was he really that bold?

"Sir, shall I—"

Dugu Bo's gaze immediately turned as cold and sinister as a venomous snake, while a small emerald-green serpent appeared directly in his hand.

"This Prince Xue Xing is Xue Beng's uncle?"

"Yes. But rest assured, sir. So long as you say the word, I can make him vanish from this world without leaving a single trace."

Dugu Bo thought Danheng was worried that the death of a prince would cause an uproar, so he immediately made his position clear.

"Whether he lives or dies is irrelevant. Do you really think he can find someone capable of killing me?"

Danheng did not particularly care. If Prince Xue Xing really managed to find someone for him to fight, he would instead have to thank him.

After all, from what he had learned, there were only a handful of Titled Douluo in the entire Heaven Dou Empire.

Other than Dugu Bo, the people Prince Xue Xing could find were probably only Soul Douluo at most.

"Er, sir, you jest. I'm afraid there is no one on this continent capable of killing you."

"There's no need to bother with this matter. Reply however you see fit."

"Alright."

After Dugu Bo left, the Fire Dragon King could no longer hold it in. He burst out laughing.

"Interesting. Someone actually wants to kill you? Hahaha, who's so bold?"

"Indeed."

The Ice Dragon King also rarely chimed in. Which "genius" wanted to hire someone to kill the person before them?

Someone wanting to kill Danheng was only worth about three stars on the funny scale.

But someone wanting to kill Danheng and actually hiring Danheng's subordinate as the assassin—the funny scale: who even knew how many stars!

"It's nothing. There was a minor conflict before."

"Forget it, forget it. Let's not mention this anymore. Our Soul Bones should be with you, right?"

The Fire Dragon King laughed for quite a while before finally stopping and continuing.

"Yes. Do you need them?"

"Mm, it isn't exactly that we need them. The Remnant Souls of the two of us can actually reside within the Soul Bones."

"That way, there'll be no need to trouble you with finding another way to let us out."

Upon hearing this, Danheng took out the Soul Bones of the two Dragon Kings. If that was the case, it would save him some trouble instead.

"Hehe, Ice Lump, shall we go? Want to follow this one and take a look around the continent as it is now?"

"Mm."

"You really ought to change that habit of yours. Otherwise, if you suddenly start talking too much one day, people might think you've been possessed."

The Fire Dragon King grumbled helplessly, then prepared to enter the Soul Bone.

"Looking like this, if anyone's possessing someone, it'll be me possessing them."

"Huh? The mute spoke?"

Danheng walked over to the tree and placed the two Soul Bones at the location of the Dragon Seal, while simultaneously removing the seal's restrictions.

Once the restrictions were lifted, the two Dragon Kings swiftly entered their respective Soul Bones. Danheng controlled the surrounding natural energy to prevent the appearance of the two Dragon Kings' Remnant Souls from causing any disturbances.

"Hey, hey, hey, we're in, friend. You won't need to worry about the two of us from now on. Just take us along wherever you go."

"It will likely take a long time for our consciousness to fully recover. During that time, we will have to trouble you, sir."

After the Ice Dragon King and Fire Dragon King each left behind a sentence, they fell silent. They had likely exhausted themselves from talking for so long, and having just taken residence in the Soul Bones, they needed time to adapt.

Meanwhile, in a lounge within the Soto City Great Spirit Arena.

The members of the Royal Fight Team were unusually quiet. Each of them had their heads lowered, like children awaiting punishment.

"What's wrong? You lost one match, and now you're this dejected?"

Qin Ming pushed open the door and walked in. Seeing their dispirited expressions, he could not help but chuckle.

These children really did need a defeat to temper their dispositions.

However, the seven students from Shrek Academy had truly shocked Qin Ming.

Especially that young girl from the agility-attack department with the Hell Spirit Cat martial spirit.

At only twelve years old, her Soul Power had already reached level thirty-six!

Although Osler, who had faced her, was not inferior to that young girl in Soul Power, her third Soul Skill was simply too unfair.

With that unique third Soul Skill, both her speed in supporting her teammates and her ability to launch unexpected assassinations were a full level above Osler's.

Ye Lingling, the owner of the Nine Heart Begonia martial spirit in the team, had been ambushed by her and knocked off the platform. This made the team's subsequent battle extremely difficult, and they ultimately lost to Shrek Academy.

"Teacher Qin, I admit my mistake. I failed to restrain that Hell Spirit Cat and allowed Lingling to be knocked off the platform."

Osler stood up with a face full of shame. He was several years older than that girl with the Hell Spirit Cat martial spirit, yet their Soul Power levels were not far apart. Worse still, he had been completely suppressed by her during the battle.

"You all..."

Qin Ming understood the pride in these students' hearts, but as their teacher, he could not stand by and watch them become arrogant simply because they possessed some strength.

After comforting them for a while, Qin Ming told them to return to Heaven Dou City first. He himself went to meet Shrek Academy's teachers, as well as his junior schoolmates.

No one knew what they discussed that night. Soon afterward, however, the people of Shrek Academy chose to leave Soto City.
