She laughed so hard she doubled over, her ample chest swaying violently with her movements, creating alluring waves beneath her tight clothing.
"Are you an idiot? I don't need fifteen minutes, I can circle Longxing City three times!"
Dai Hong, standing nearby, watched with burning anxiety, cold sweat beading on his forehead.
It's over, it's over, we've lost for sure.
Bai Chenxiang isn't just any soul master, she's a once-in-a-century genius from the Speed Clan, a pure speed-type soul master, speed is everything to her.
To compete with her in speed? Isn't that just asking for humiliation?
He tugged at Yu Xiaolong's sleeve and whispered, "Uncle Yu, how about we change the rules of the competition? This girl is really fast..."
"Shut up!" Bai Chenxiang glared at Dai Hong, "What do you know, Dai Hong, you commoner? This genius will show him today what true speed is!"
Dai Hong shrunk his neck, not daring to speak further.
He was honest and simple by nature. Although he had distant royal blood, he never boasted about it, instead being more humble than ordinary people.
But this humility, in the face of the competitive Bai Chenxiang, became weakness.
Huo Wu stood below the stage with her arms crossed, her red lips slightly pursed.
This old man is bullying children again.
But she didn't say anything, just watched quietly.
She knew Yu Xiaolong's background. This old man couldn't even defeat him himself, let alone a yellow-haired girl who only knew how to run.
"The match begins!" the temporary referee shouted.
A confident arc curved on Bai Chenxiang's lips. She tapped the ground with her toes, and her entire body turned into a purple afterimage, charging straight at Yu Xiaolong.
Her speed was indeed astonishing.
The air even let out a sharp sonic boom, the shriek of her body tearing through the air.
The crowd below instantly erupted in gasps.
"Too fast! I can't see anything!"
"Miss Bai's speed, who in Longxing City can match it!"
"The Speed Clan lives up to its name!"
Dai Hong closed his eyes, unable to bear watching the next scene.
It's over, we've lost for sure.
But--
As Bai Chenxiang's figure passed Yu Xiaolong.
When her sleeve was only three inches away from Yu Xiaolong, she stopped.
No, she didn't stop.
She couldn't move.
Yu Xiaolong's eyes had turned pure gold at some point, and a faint golden light screen spread out from him, enveloping the entire battle stage.
Golden Restraint Light.
An additional soul skill that can immobilize any target. If the immobilized person's cultivation is insufficient, they can't even move a finger.
Bai Chenxiang remained in the pose of her outstretched hand, her entire body frozen as if in amber.
The smile of victory was still on her face, but it had frozen.
Her eyes could move, her thoughts were still active, but her body wouldn't obey.
What's going on? Why can't I move? What kind of soul skill is this? No, he's cheating!
"The winner is decided," Yu Xiaolong said calmly, retracting the Golden Restraint Light.
Bai Chenxiang's body relaxed, and she stumbled a couple of steps before regaining her balance, her face flushing with anger.
"You, you cheated!" she stomped her foot, her purple twin ponytails whipping wildly. In her anger, her ample chest heaved violently, stretching the fabric of her collar taut, revealing a hint of a deep cleavage.
"Using this kind of restraint soul skill, I can't move at all, how can I compete with you in speed? This is completely unfair! It doesn't count! Let's do it again!"
Dai Hong opened his mouth, wanting to say something.
But seeing Bai Chenxiang's murderous glare, he swallowed his words.
Yu Xiaolong chuckled inwardly.
I knew you'd cheat.
But it doesn't matter, today I will completely shatter your pride.
"Alright," he nodded, "Second round, I'll start from the east gate of Longxing City and reach Three Mile Pavilion outside the west gate. You go first, and if you arrive before me, you win."
Bai Chenxiang's eyes lit up when she heard this.
From the east gate to Three Mile Pavilion outside the west gate, this is a pure speed competition, with no tricks to play.
"You said it! No more using that Golden Light Soul Skill!"
This young lady is sure to win this time!
She took a deep breath, instantly releasing her martial soul. A pair of transparent purple wings appeared behind her, the Sharp-tailed Swallow martial soul unique to the Speed Clan.
Her figure flashed, turning into a purple lightning bolt that vanished from its spot in an instant.
Her speed was so great that the onlookers couldn't even catch a glimpse of her afterimage.
Dai Hong gasped, "This girl's speed is even faster than last time..."
The crowd below erupted in cheers.
Spectators chattered, "Miss Bai's speed, I'm afraid even a Soul Sage couldn't catch up."
Huo Wu remained silent.
She knew the old man's strength best.
As for the young soul masters in Longxing City who had been humiliated by Bai Chenxiang, they watched with the attitude of enjoying a show.
Bai Chenxiang sped through the streets of Longxing City, the buildings on either side blurring past.
The corners of her mouth turned up, filled with immense pride.
Hmph, what kind of damn agreement is this? I'm even scared of myself when I run!
Without that Golden Light Soul Skill messing things up this time, you've already lost!
Three Mile Pavilion? I'll be there in ten breaths!
She had absolute confidence in her speed. Since childhood, no one among her peers had ever been able to surpass her in speed.
Eight breaths later, Bai Chenxiang's figure appeared atop the west city gate tower.
She lightly tapped the battlements with her toes, leaped into the air, traced a beautiful arc, and landed steadily before the Three Mile Pavilion.
"I'm here!"
Bai Chenxiang landed and turned, her purple skirt fluttering up to reveal a section of her fair, smooth thigh. Her legs were long and straight, glowing with a lustrous sheen in the sunlight.
Her breathing was slightly rapid from the intense sprint, her full chest rising and falling with each breath. Sweat had dampened her collar, making the already tight purple fabric cling even more closely to her skin, outlining the perfect curve of her bust, even the deep valley between them was faintly visible.
She clapped her hands triumphantly and looked back the way she came.
"Hmph, this time I'll see how you--"
She stopped mid-sentence, stunned.
Because in the Three Mile Pavilion, Yu Xiaolong was already sitting on a stone bench, holding a cup of hot tea and leisurely sipping it.
The teacup was still steaming.
Beside Yu Xiaolong, Huo Wu was looking at her with a pout, a hint of helplessness in her eyes.
Bai Chenxiang's mind instantly crashed.
He, how could he be here?
This is impossible!
When I left just now, he was clearly still on the east gate battle stage!
From the east gate to the Three Mile Pavilion outside the west gate, it's the entire Longxing City in between, a distance of over thirty li!
Even if his speed is incredible, he couldn't have gotten here before me!
I have the Sharp-tailed Swallow martial soul! A pure speed-type soul master! Speed is my absolute domain!
Bai Chenxiang's small face turned bright red, and her eyes even welled up with tears.
She was utterly defeated.
The confidence, pride, and sense of superiority she had built up since childhood were shattered in an instant.
She had always thought of herself as a genius, the fastest person in Longxing City, the pride of the Speed Clan.
But now, in front of the entire city, she had been utterly crushed in her most skilled domain.
