Arrival in Star Luo City, Young Master Dai Picks Up the Tab Tonight

"That was a close call." Yao Haoxuan wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. "If Huabin and Zhu Lu hadn't frozen those corpses, we would have been badly injured, if not dead."

Xixi also came over, patted her chest, and said, "Thank you, junior Huabin."

Dai Yueheng's expression was somewhat grim. He had been among the first to charge, and if the Corpse Explosion had occurred, he would have been the first to be hit. He glanced at Dai Huabin, and although he didn't want to admit it, he had indeed been indebted to him this time.

Ma Xiaotao walked over and patted Dai Huabin on the shoulder.

"Well done. Your and Zhu Lu's reaction speed is amazing."

Dai Huabin put away the Domain of Eternal Freeze, took Zhu Lu's hand, and smiled:

"I told you long ago, Evil Soul Master have a lot of underhanded tricks. It's always good to be on guard."

Zhu Lu stood obediently beside him. The forceful activation of Snow Empress's domain had made her face a little pale, but the warmth from Dai Huabin's palm made her feel at ease.

Wang Dong'er leaned closer and looked Dai Huabin up and down. "What's wrong with your brain? I thought we were all going to die just now."

Di Lingxi tugged at Dai Huabin's sleeve, looking around with disgust. "Huabin, it stinks here, let's get out of here."

After carefully searching the cave and confirming that there were no survivors, the group left.

Outside the cave entrance, Zhang Lexuan and the others had been waiting for a long time.

Seeing that everyone had emerged unharmed, Zhang Lexuan nodded. "Well done. No casualties, the mission was accomplished beautifully."

Ma Xiaotao tossed the Death Messenger's token to the guide of the Star Luo Empire military, thus completing her mission.

"Alright, I don't want to stay in this awful place a second longer." Wu Ming stretched. "Let's get going."

The main force set off again, heading straight for Star Luo City Star Luo Empire.

The main force arrived in Star Luo City at dusk.

As the venue for the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Tournament, Star Luo City has been packed with people these past few days.

The main road was bustling with traffic, and the shops on both sides were decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations.

The Star Luo Empire officially provides Shrek Academy with extremely generous benefits.

The reception staff were waiting at the city gate and led the group to the most luxurious Star Emperor Hotel in the city center.

"Shrek Academy is the reigning champion and deserves the highest level of treatment. The entire top floor has been cleared out, reserved exclusively for our distinguished guests."

The official in charge of receiving the guests was all smiles, bowing and scraping as he led the way.

The space on the top floor is ridiculously large.

All of them are top-of-the-line luxury suites, complete with private meeting rooms, meditation rooms, and even indoor hot springs.

The group had just put down their luggage and hadn't even had a chance to catch their breath when there was a knock on Dai Huabin's door.

As soon as the door opened, a golden figure rushed in.

"Huabin! Huabin! It's so lively here!"

Di Lingxi clung tightly to Dai Huabin's arm, hanging entirely on him, and shook him violently.

"You must be from the Star Luo Empire, right? Shall we go out and have some fun? I want to eat something delicious!"

Dai Huabin was so dizzy from being shaken that he quickly reached out and pulled her down.

Ever since she took human form, this girl has been filled with curiosity about everything in the human world.

Especially when it comes to food, it's a bottomless pit.

"You just finished traveling, aren't you tired?" Dai Huabin flicked her forehead in an annoyed tone.

"Not tired! I'm very strong!" Di Lingxi retorted confidently, rubbing her forehead.

Footsteps sounded outside the door.

Wang Dong'er strolled in, arms crossed. She glanced at Di Lingxi, who was draped over Dai Huabin's arm, and gave a soft snort.

"Someone is the young master of the White Tiger Duke Mansion in the Star Luo Empire. Now that he's on his own turf, doesn't he intend to show him any hospitality?"

Xiao Xiao peeked out from behind Wang Dong'er and nodded repeatedly:

"That's right, Captain! We've been cooped up in the academy for so long, we're itching to go shopping!"

Cui Yajie and Ning Tian followed them in.

Ning Tian crossed his arms, his tone slightly teasing. "I brought plenty of Gold Soul Coin. But now that we're in Star Luo City, I can't be expected to pay for this outsider, can I?"

Looking at the group of chattering girls, Dai Huabin felt a headache coming on.

He turned to look at Zhu Lu, who was sitting on the sofa drinking tea.

Zhu Lu put down her teacup, walked over and straightened his collar, and spoke gently:

"Huabin, everyone should take this opportunity to relax. Star Luo City has a lot of fun places to go, and the night market will be opening soon."

Well, even his fiancée has spoken up.

Before Dai Huabin could nod, several more people walked in from outside.

Ma Xiaotao, with her red hair casually draped over her shoulders and wearing a sexy red dress, leaned casually against the door frame:

"Oh, everyone's here? Perfect! Huabin, you're a local, a real local. How about you show us senior girls around tonight?"

Wu Ming and Ling Luochen followed behind Ma Xiaotao.

Wu Ming clenched his fist, his knuckles cracking.

"You've been eating dry rations in the mountains for days, Huabin, you're going to have to pay a hefty price today."

Although Ling Luochen didn't speak, her gaze fell on Dai Huabin, clearly indicating that she also wanted to go out for some fresh air.

Looking at the room full of stunningly beautiful women, Dai Huabin sighed inwardly.

This isn't going out for fun; it's practically taking a super eye-catching, trouble-making group out on the street.

"Okay, okay, okay."

Dai Huabin raised his hands in surrender.

"Tonight's expenses are all on me. Buy whatever you want, eat whatever you want."

"Yay!" Di Lingxi cheered, grabbing Zhu Lu's hand and running outside. "Sister Lulu, let's go!"

Wang Dong'er pursed her lips, muttered "You're smart enough to know what's good for you," and then turned and left.

Dai Huabin shook his head helplessly and followed the group out of the room.

At the end of the corridor, Zhang Lexuan and Han Ruoruo were talking by the window.

Seeing this grand procession, Zhang Lexuan raised her eyebrows slightly.

"Grandmaster, Sister Ruoruo, shall we go for a stroll together?" Dai Huabin greeted them.

Han Ruoruo covered her mouth and chuckled:

"We won't go and join the fun. You young people have fun on your own. Remember to come back early; we need to go to Star Luo Plaza to familiarize ourselves with the area tomorrow."

Zhang Lexuan nodded and added, "Be careful. Don't cause trouble, but don't be afraid of trouble either."

With the young master of the White Tiger Duke Mansion and the eldest daughter of the Nether Duke Mansion around, the chances of them causing trouble in Star Luo City are indeed slim, unless they are blind to the danger.

The group took the Soul Guided Elevator directly down to the first floor and exited the Star Emperor Hotel.

The Star Luo City is even more bustling at night than during the day. Colorful Soul Guidance Lamp illuminate both sides of the street, and the shouts of vendors and the aromas of snack stalls blend together.

Di Lingxi was like a wild horse, looking left and right, finding everything new and exciting.

"Huabin! What's that? It smells so good!" She pointed to a barbecue stall, her mouth practically watering.

Dai Huabin tossed over a Gold Soul Coin: "Boss, ten skewers of each, please."

"Alright! Please wait a moment, young master!" The shopkeeper took the Gold Soul Coin with a beaming smile and quickly began grilling the meat.

Wang Dong'er dragged Xiao Xiao to a jewelry store, where they were captivated by the sparkly hair clips and bracelets in the display case.

Dai Huabin walked over, didn't even ask the price, and directly took out a prepaid card and handed it to the clerk:

"Buy everything they want."

The shop assistant's hands trembled as he looked at the Gold Card Dai Huabin handed him. This was the highest-level bank card in the Star Luo Empire, which only royalty and top nobles could possess.

Cui Yajie, always eager for drama, exclaimed, "Captain, I want one too!"

"Buy it!" Dai Huabin waved his hand dismissively.

Ning Tian watched from the side and couldn't help but shake his head. "At the speed at which you spend money, I'm starting to wonder if the White Tiger Duke Mansion has a gold mine."

Dai Huabin chuckled lightly, "As long as everyone's happy."

Anyway, this card was originally my mom's money for dating (picking up girls).

Ma Xiaotao and Wu Ming weren't interested in those trinkets; their attention was entirely focused on the pubs and local snacks along the street.

Ling Luochen followed quietly behind the group, occasionally stopping in front of a stall selling ice sculptures.

Dai Huabin noticed her movements, walked over and picked up an exquisitely carved ice and snow Soul Beast ornament.

"You like this?" Dai Huabin asked.

Ling Luochen paused for a moment, then nodded slightly.

Dai Huabin paid for it and stuffed the ornament into her hand. "Take it, consider it a thank you for your hard work as my sparring partner these past few days."

Ling Luochen held the cold ornament and whispered, "Thank you."

Zhu Lu walked beside Dai Huabin, watching him skillfully handle this group of girls with different personalities. Instead of feeling jealous, she felt extremely proud.

This is her man.

As the group walked down the street, they attracted a hundred percent of attention.

A dozen stunningly beautiful women, each with a unique style.

There are those who are aloof and noble, those who are fiery and sexy, those who are charming and cute, and then there is the unparalleled beauty of Di Lingxi.

Passersby stopped to watch, and many self-proclaimed dashing young noblemen were eager to make a move. However, upon seeing the jade pendant representing the White Tiger Duke Mansion's Mansion hanging from Dai Huabin's waist, they all immediately abandoned the idea and stayed as far away as possible.
