Ling Luochen: Do You Think He'll Win?

Hearing Lu Heqiu's slightly childish voice.

Elder Wang bent down to look.

Those eyes were extremely mature.

Unlike the innocence of a child.

Instead, they held a sense of clarity that saw through the world.

It was just that his small, thin frame was completely mismatched with his eyes.

It was as if an incredibly mature soul resided within.

"You... what are you messing around for!"

"You haven't even awakened your martial soul yet."

"You want to go onto the Soul Fighting Platform?"

Elder Wang's voice clearly held a hint of anger as he said this.

He didn't think this was a normal match.

He just felt like these little ones were here to tease him today.

If a six-year-old child with Innate Full Soul Power came wanting to test their soul skills against Dai Yueheng, he would have decisively opened the Soul Fighting Platform for them to try.

But this kid was so young, clearly at an age where he hadn't even awakened his martial soul.

What was he going up there for?

Was he going up to watch Dai Yueheng perform, or to have Dai Yueheng complete his childhood?

"Yes, please open it."

"I have a martial soul."

Lu Heqiu understood that talking more would be useless.

It would be better to let them see for themselves.

He immediately released his martial soul.

A golden phantom appeared behind him.

The phantom of the Wind Immortal Bone was several meters tall, standing directly behind Lu Heqiu. The sacred and righteous aura it exuded made Elder Wang stare for a long time before snapping back to reality.

He had never seen such a martial soul before.

"Body Martial Soul?"

He had just opened his mouth to ask Ma Xiaotao.

His peripheral vision immediately caught sight of the soul ring encircling Lu Heqiu.

It wasn't purple, nor was it black.

It was a Blood-Red Soul Ring, representing a hundred thousand years!

The appearance of that Blood-Red Soul Ring stunned Dai Yueheng, who was about to step onto the stage. His gaze quickly scanned for other soul rings as he looked at the Blood-Red Soul Ring.

His first reaction was that Lu Heqiu was a Titled Douluo.

But when his gaze found no other soul rings on Lu Heqiu.

He was instantly shocked.

"How is this possible!"

"A Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring!?"

"A one-ring Soul Master with a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring!?"

Elder Wang had no intention of doubting him at this moment. He simply pulled Lu Heqiu towards a more secluded Soul Fighting Arena, gesturing for the others to follow.

Lu Heqiu did not refuse. He simply retracted his martial soul and followed.

There were too many people here.

Although he had no fear of any assassination within the academy.

Being seen by too many people was ultimately not a good thing.

Ma Xiaotao followed behind with a smug look on her face, her gaze occasionally sweeping towards Dai Yueheng.

Dai Yueheng was still somewhat in shock.

That Blood-Red Soul Ring wouldn't lie.

A Soul Master with a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring would also possess a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone!

If this soul bone were to be thrown onto the continent, it would undoubtedly cause a bloody storm. No empire or Soul Master would doubt that there could never be too much of such a thing.

Dai Yueheng followed behind Ma Xiaotao.

"This kid..."

"Did Dean Yan agree to let you bring him here?"

Ma Xiaotao shook her head.

"Not really."

"It's just that the little one's teacher hasn't been arranged yet."

"So, for now, he's just following me. Since I'm coming to the Douluo Arena, he naturally has to come along."

Dai Yueheng's tone was calm as he glanced at Ma Xiaotao, speaking in a half-warning tone: "Don't bring this kid around carelessly. You should know what that blood-red Soul Ring represents."

"If someone with ulterior motives sees it."

"The academy will have a lot of trouble!"

The playfulness in Ma Xiaotao's beautiful eyes diminished significantly as she responded very seriously.

"Of course, I know."

"You all know it too."

"You are Inner Academy disciples of the academy, candidates for this generation's Shrek Seven Devils."

"You can't reveal anything about the academy's affairs."

"It's precisely because you are trustworthy that I brought the little one to see you."

Dai Yueheng didn't continue speaking.

Just as Ma Xiaotao said.

They were all candidates for this generation's Shrek Seven Devils. To be precise, the few present today, barring any accidents, would all become participants in the Continental Soul Master Competition.

They were teammates, so it was naturally impossible for them to reveal the academy's affairs.

Moreover, they were members of the Disciplinary Committee.

They possessed a certain level of discretion.

Not long after.

Elder Wang led them to a more secluded Douluo Arena.

His gaze lingered on Lu Heqiu for a moment.

"Do you still want to fight?"

"Dai Yueheng, go up and try your Soul Skills against this little one!"

Dai Yueheng walked towards the Douluo Arena.

There was no way he would be scared off by a single Soul Ring. That was not something a member of the Dai family would do. The White Tiger bloodline flowing within him also forbade him from showing fear before a fight.

Lu Heqiu also didn't waste any more words.

He walked directly onto the Douluo Arena.

Yao Haoxuan, watching from below, was eager for more excitement and jokingly said to Gongyang Mo beside him.

"Want to place a bet?"

"I say the little one will win this fight."

Gongyang Mo looked at him with gentle eyes.

"Bet on what?"

"Don't talk about gold coins, betting money is boring."

"If you..."

Just as he was about to state the bet, Yao Haoxuan interrupted him: "No more betting, no more betting, you win."

Ma Xiaotao and Ling Luochen also stood there watching.

"Who do you think will win?"

Ling Luochen looked at Ma Xiaotao, her usual coldness fading slightly. After a moment of hesitation, she replied, "Yueheng."

"Even if this little one truly has terrifying strength."

"Fundamentally, he is only a first-ring Soul Master."

"At most, he has only four Soul Skills."

"And the gap in Soul Power Level is too large. I see no possibility of him winning."

Ma Xiaotao's lips curved slightly.

This is underestimating Lu Heqiu, isn't it?

She had seen Lu Heqiu's Soul Skills when he fought Xuan Zi before. Even though it was Lu Heqiu's first time using them, Ma Xiaotao believed she couldn't have taken them. Today, with Elder Wang here, Dai Yueheng was going to suffer!

"I think Lu Heqiu will win!"

Ling Luochen simply smiled charmingly at Ma Xiaotao's answer, not replying. Who would win would be known soon enough.

The two on the stage had already prepared themselves.

Lu Heqiu stood on the stage facing Dai Yueheng. Dai Yueheng showed no arrogance; he was not like his brother and appeared more humble.

"Release your Martial Soul."

"If you can't handle the upcoming fight, just call it quits at any time."

Lu Heqiu glanced at him.

"No need."

"A normal fight is fine."

"If you can't handle it, feel free to call upon that senior for help."

Lu Heqiu didn't mean to mock him.

Dai Yueheng might indeed be unable to withstand his soul skills.

Elder Wang, standing outside the Soul Fighting Platform, didn't give the two any more time for pleasantries and spoke directly to them.

"Begin."

"Release your Martial Souls."
