Night, Great Soul Arena.

"You're here? I thought you weren't coming, it's so late already."

Seeing Li Han arrive late, Meng Yiran's eyes held a hint of joy, though she put on a haughty expression.

"As long as I made it in time, it's fine."

Li Han said indifferently.

Seeing Li Han's attitude, Meng Yiran pursed her lips.

"Are you still going to continue participating in the individual matches today?"

"Mm."

"Why do you have to pack your schedule so full? What if you exhaust too much soul power participating in the individual matches and it affects our duo match?"

"Isn't this match today supposed to be your primary attack? I'll just watch from the sidelines, and if you can't handle it, I'll step in."

Hearing this, Meng Yiran couldn't help but choke with anger.

"Li Feiyu! Do you even know what a duo match is? It requires two people to coordinate and fight! It's not one person going after another. Even if I'm the primary attacker, you still have to assist and support me."

Li Han had truly never coordinated in a fight with anyone else; it sounded quite novel.

"It's a decent game, then I'll play along with you."

"This isn't a game! Could you be a little more serious?"

Meng Yiran felt somewhat helpless.

"Rest assured, I am very serious when fighting. However, I still have to participate in the individual matches. I need to go prepare, see you in a bit. Don't worry, it won't waste much soul power."

Li Han waved his hand, bid farewell to Meng Yiran, and walked toward the arena.

"This guy is infuriating."

Meng Yiran crossed her arms, a lingering trace of annoyance still on her face.

"If you cause me to lose later, I won't let you off!"

In the individual match, Li Han naturally won with ease, earning another hundred.

With his current strength, he was essentially smurfing in the Soul Grand Master level arena.

He still defeated his opponent without using any Martial Soul skills.

One move to finish it.

However, this time, the audience for the individual match saw his Martial Soul.

"How was it? I told you, it wouldn't waste much soul power."

Leaving the arena and seeing Meng Yiran at the entrance, Li Han said with a smile.

"I'll give you that."

Meng Yiran had to admit that the mysterious man before her possessed extraordinary strength.

At the Soul Grand Master level, he likely had no rivals.

"Let's go, our duo match is about to start."

Li Han led Meng Yiran toward the duo match arena.

On the stage.

The host spoke passionately into the microphone.

"Welcome everyone back to the Great Soul Arena! The next duo match is about to begin! First, let us welcome the Soul Breaker Duo! They are composed of the twenty-seventh-level Soul Grand Master Li Feiyu and the twenty-first-level Soul Grand Master Meng Yiran! Don't let their level advantage fool you; their strength is truly astonishing! Li Feiyu has participated in two individual matches at our Great Soul Arena, and each one took less than three seconds! He achieved a true one-hit kill against his opponents! And his opponents were no weaklings; one was level twenty-eight, the other level twenty-nine, both top-tier Soul Grand Masters. Furthermore, in yesterday's duo match, he relied on his own strength to easily defeat two Soul Grand Masters of the same level! I dare say, below the level of Soul Elder, he is an invincible existence! As for his teammate Meng Yiran, once I mention her family, everyone will be full of anticipation."

"She is the granddaughter of the Dragon and Snake Couple!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the audience erupted in exclamations.

From the host's words, they could tell that this was a match worth anticipating.

At this moment, Li Han and Meng Yiran walked out onto the stage.

This host is truly professional, Li Han sighed inwardly.

"And their opponents are equally not to be underestimated! They are the genius Soul Grand Master duo from the Exotic Beast Academy: Gao Bo, a level 29 Battle Soul Master possessing the Fire Lion Martial Soul, and Liu Yu, a level 23 Soul Master possessing the Twin Blade Martial Soul! These two are genius students of the Exotic Beast Academy! Both are under twenty years old, yet they possess such astonishing strength! I believe this will be a truly spectacular match!"

Gao Bo and Liu Yu also stepped onto the stage.

Gao Bo was a man dressed in black with long, fiery red hair that looked like a raging lion.

Liu Yu was a woman wearing short sleeves and shorts, with a hot figure and well-defined muscle lines.

"I was wondering who our opponents were today; so it's the young Miss Meng. What's the matter? You have time to come to the Soul Fighting Arena to play today? Soul fighting isn't a game; if things go wrong, you're going to get hurt."

Liu Yu looked at Meng Yiran with a chuckle, clearly indicating that the two had known each other for a long time.

"Liu Yu! I'm not here to play! I'm here to train and defeat you!"

"How truly overconfident. Don't think that just because you've broken through to become a Soul Grand Master, you're my match. My soul power is two levels higher than yours. Not to mention that Gao Bo's soul power is also two levels higher than your teammate's. In this situation, you want to defeat us? Are you dreaming?"

"Soul power doesn't represent everything; a Soul Master's combat ability is the foundation of everything! Come on! I will prove my strength!"

Meng Yiran summoned her Serpent Cane, her face full of seriousness.

"Since you're so impatient to be defeated by me, I won't hold back."

Liu Yu also summoned her Twin Blade Martial Soul, gripping one in each hand, and became serious.

"Don't worry, Xiao Yu, I will definitely help you win this victory!"

Gao Bo spoke, activating his Fire Lion Martial Soul, and suddenly a flash of fire danced across the arena.

"You know them?" Li Han asked in a low voice.

"Yes. They and I are both students at the Exotic Beast Academy. That Liu Yu is a year older than me and always loves to compare herself to me, constantly throwing shade at me. As for that Gao Bo, he is her suitor. For Liu Yu's sake, he is willing to do anything."

"So there's a grudge between you."

"Yes. So you better take this seriously! I'll take the lead, you provide support, and I must defeat this person! Just because she's a year older than me and has had more time to cultivate, she thinks she can suppress me with her soul power? She has the nerve to keep showing off in front of me! If we win today, not only will all the prize money go to you, but I'll give you an extra hundred Gold Soul Coins!"

"Deal!"

Hearing that there was money to be made, Li Han agreed very readily.

"The match begins!"

Following the host's command, both sides moved simultaneously.

Meng Yiran was the first to activate her first soul skill.

A sharp Snake Blade emerged from the snake head of her Serpent Cane, thrusting toward the charging Liu Yu.

"Heh, what a boring soul skill! Watch this! First soul skill! Twin Blade Dance!"

Liu Yu sneered. While dodging the Serpent Cane, he swung his Twin Blades, transforming them into streaks of blade light that slashed directly toward Meng Yiran's head.

His strike was swift and clean, marking him as a veteran of real combat.

Seeing this, Meng Yiran did not panic; she spun her Serpent Cane, blocking the violent blade light.

Clearly, the two had clashed many times and were intimately familiar with each other's soul skills.

"Acting all mysterious, kid? Get out of here! Flame Jet!"

Gao Bo looked at Li Han. With his Fire Lion possessed, he spewed a torrent of flames directly from his mouth.

Facing the incoming scorching heat, Li Han remained unhurried, cleaving out with his Gold-Devouring Thunder Spear!

Whoosh!

The Gold-Devouring Thunder Spear instantly split the searing flames apart.

Before Gao Bo could even react, Li Han had already burst through the divided fire!
