Following this, Ye Que and his group went to the Body Sect's cafeteria to eat.

The cafeteria was not large, but it was fully equipped with everything one might need. Because it was a sect that protected the nation, the food in the Body Sect was incredibly nourishing, on par with the inner courtyard of Shrek.

Cultivating a Body Martial Soul consumes the most energy, so naturally, it requires more medicinal ingredients.

While eating, Long Aotian said to Ye Que, a rarity for him: "Brother Ye, I can tell that the Sect Master is very satisfied with you. At the very least, I have never seen him this satisfied before; even I have been won over by your art of conversation."

"Aotian is right. I can feel that the Sect Master gets along with you very harmoniously," Her Highness Vina also offered her opinion.

It's all forced by life. In our world, those without emotional intelligence are destined to fail... Ye Que smiled slightly: "Perhaps Senior Du Busi just needs someone who understands him, and I happened to hit the mark."

Long Aotian said: "You are too humble. You are the young person I have met who best understands how to gauge a situation. How about you and I become friends from this day forward?"

"That would be excellent!" Ye Que extended his right hand.

Long Aotian laughed heartily and gripped Ye Que's hand tightly; the two felt as if they had met too late in life.

Vina watched this scene, feeling that her thoughts had suddenly cleared.

Aotian's idea was excellent. The young man before her would not have low achievements, and the Body Sect's decision to go all-in was correct.

If the investment truly succeeded and they gained an Angel Douluo as an ally in the future, the Evil Soul Masters would never dare to offend them again, and Shrek would surely be wary of harming the empire's regime.

After the two finished their bonding, Ye Que sat back down.

It wasn't until an hour later, when the Body Sect finished their meal, that Vina and Long Aotian led Ye Wuqing and his group to experience the Body Sect's cultivation environment.

Ye Que, however, headed to the back mountain.

He kept his guard up, continuing to use his Soul Tool to send messages to Guangyu Douluo.

Guangyu Douluo had arrived long ago, but he had been observing from the shadows the entire time.

Beside him was another powerhouse whose aura was no weaker than Du Busi's, especially the staff on his shoulder, which had a silver dragon soul coiling around it, possessing its own intelligence.

Soon, Ye Que arrived at the cultivation grounds in the back mountain and saw Du Busi, who had been sitting cross-legged for some time.

"You've come!"

Du Busi spoke.

Ye Que nodded: "For Senior Du Busi to guide my cultivation, that is a rare opportunity for this junior."

Du Busi smiled faintly: "You brat, you only say pleasant things. I was almost fooled by you, but I don't blame you. If the Body Sect were in your position, we would be just as cautious."

"Friend in the back, come out and have a chat!"

Ye Que sighed, knowing full well that Du Busi had discovered Guangyu Douluo following in the shadows.

Following this, in the forest of the back mountain, Guangyu Douluo transformed into a streak of fire and shuttled through, appearing before Du Busi.

Beside Guangyu Douluo stood a silver-haired man holding a Coiling Dragon Staff, his aura no weaker than Du Busi's, with waves of dragon roars emanating from him.

Ye Que was also full of curiosity about this newly arrived senior.

Guangyu Douluo had said he was going to pick up a friend, but he hadn't expected him to bring another backer.

"An overseas Soul Master?"

Du Busi narrowed his eyes, his tone filled with astonishment and a hint of vigilance; it was clear that the powerhouse brought by Guangyu Douluo was extremely formidable.

The silver-haired man threw his staff onto the ground and said with a smile on his lips: "Allow me to introduce myself. This Seat is the 97th-level Dragon Subduing Douluo. I have long heard of your brother Du Bisi's reputation; it is a great pity that I never had the chance to cross hands with him."

"I have come this time only for the safety of our Young Master, and I have no intention of offending the Body Sect."

As he spoke, a massive silver dragon lunged out from the power-filled silver Coiling Dragon Staff, opening its vertical pupils to look down upon Du Busi.

Coiling Dragon Staff, True Dragon Soul!

Du Busi sensed that the Dragon Subduing Douluo was extraordinary; the pressure he brought was far greater than that of Xuan Zi.

To think an overseas Soul Master could be this strong.

"Since you know my brother's name, you must be a powerhouse who made a name for himself years ago. Let me see what you are capable of!"

Du Busi let out a cold shout, and nine soul rings rose from beneath his feet. His green skin instantly bulged, transforming him into a green, hundred-meter-tall giant as he swung a fist toward the Dragon Subduing Douluo.

The Dragon Subduing Douluo was naturally unafraid; he raised his hand to grip the Coiling Dragon Staff, his soul power erupting instantly. The silver dragon soul unleashed a terrifying might as he lashed out with the staff.

BOOM--!

A violent roar echoed, and both top-tier powerhouses retreated simultaneously.

Du Busi was somewhat shocked.

This staff hits so painfully, and it has elemental damage?

The Dragon Subduing Douluo raised his staff and laughed: "Again!"

In the next instant, he tore through space, vanished into it, and with lightning speed, struck Du Busi with another blow.

This time, not only was Du Busi unsettled, but Ye Que, who was watching the battle from below, was also unsettled.

Shattering space—is this something a Super Douluo can do?

Is this even human?

Beside him, Guangyu Douluo explained with a smile: "Young Master, the silver dragon soul on the Coiling Dragon Staff comes from a lower-ranked dragon clan blessed by the Silver Dragon King, possessing the Silver Dragon King's elemental control."

"Back when the Sun Moon Empire collided with the continent, they slaughtered a Silver Dragon in order to conquer the original Douluo Continent. The Dragon Subduing predecessor of that time seized the opportunity to collect the dragon soul, subsequently forming a contract with it. We nurture the dragon soul, and in return, it attaches itself to the martial soul of the next successor of the Coiling Dragon Staff."

"Today, the current Dragon Subduing Douluo has inherited that Silver Dragon soul."

Ye Que was deeply shocked upon hearing this.

So it was that Silver Dragon from the Sun Moon Empire; no wonder the level 97 Dragon Subduing Douluo was so overpowered.

Water, fire, earth, wind, light, darkness, spatial elements...

With all these combined, even if one couldn't defeat an enemy, one could always make a safe escape.

Ye Que silently gave a thumbs up to the descendants of Martial Soul Hall.

At this moment, the battle in the sky had been raging for quite some time. Although Du Busi could gain the upper hand by relying on his Body Martial Soul, he was also being wounded by various elemental attacks.

Both sides traded blows, evenly matched.

But in reality, Du Busi had lost, because he was a level 98 Super Douluo.

The Dragon Subduing Douluo had used the advantage of his martial soul to bridge the one-level gap.

At this time, the Dragon Subduing Douluo laughed: "The Body Douluo truly lives up to his reputation. This one admires you. Since it is difficult for us to determine a winner today, how about we fight again another day?"

"Agreed!"

Du Busi looked composed, retracting his True Body of the Martial Soul and returning to the appearance of a kind old man.

The Dragon Subduing Douluo landed steadily and stood behind Ye Que.

He immediately looked at the Young Master, knelt on one knee, and cupped his hands: "Dragon Subduing Douluo, greets the Young Master."

"This..."

Ye Que felt somewhat unnatural, not knowing what to do for a moment.

A level 97 Super Douluo calling him Young Master—the pressure was not ordinary.

Guangyu Douluo smiled and said: "Young Master, we are all family, why be so timid? I sensed that the situation on the continent was not right, so I specifically went to bring the Dragon Subduing Douluo here."

Ye Que took a deep breath, quickly helped the Dragon Subduing Douluo up, and said: "No need to kneel, I cannot bear such a gesture."

The Dragon Subduing Douluo smiled gently and said: "The Young Master is the Young Master; our rules cannot be broken."

Fine...

Ye Que calmly accepted his identity as the Young Master of Martial Soul Hall and said to the Dragon Subduing Douluo: "You wait for me outside first; I still need to pay a visit to Senior Du Busi."

The Dragon Subduing Douluo and Guangyu Douluo nodded and vanished in the blink of an eye.

Only then did Ye Que heave a sigh of relief.

Being a Young Master is truly not easy; having so many powerhouses revolving around him was still a bit frightening.

"You brat, you've gained an advantage and are still acting coy."

At this moment, Du Busi, who had been watching the show for a long time, walked over with his hands behind his back and couldn't help but tease him.

With such strong backing, even without the Body Sect, Shrek would be wary and would not dare to target the possessor of the Six-Winged Angel martial soul.

These descendants of Martial Soul Hall from overseas were each stronger than the last.

Ye Que cupped his hands and said: "Senior is joking. No matter how strong the backing is, it is not as good as being strong oneself. That is why I admire Senior Du Busi and dream of becoming a powerhouse like you one day."

"I saw it just now; you were holding back at every turn."

As soon as these words were spoken, the discomfort in Du Busi's heart vanished instantly, and he was coaxed into a playful old man.

He patted Ye Que on the shoulder and said: "Sit."

Ye Que sat cross-legged, like an obedient child.

Subsequently, Du Busi's expression became serious, and he said in a deep voice: "Originally, with your aptitude, you could step into the Super Douluo realm even without my guidance. But since you and I are very much in tune, I will explain to you the mysteries of the Body Martial Soul."

"The so-called Body Martial Soul is based on one's own body. It does not rely on innate martial soul aptitude. Even with innate level one soul power, as long as one awakens a Body Martial Soul and does not fear hardship, one can become a top-tier powerhouse."

"And this involves the core of the Body Martial Soul."

"Breaking the limits of the body, breaking through shackles, refining the spirit and the body, and developing the body's potential to the limit to rival true top-tier martial souls..."
