Tang San was instantly driven over the edge by Ji Feng's words.
His eyes bulged with rage.
Before he could even open his mouth, Gangzi pointed at him and shouted, "Ji Feng! You actually stole Little San's Soul Ring!"
"Gangzi, you can't put it like that. The Datura Snake was just lying there. I happened to come across it, and I thought nobody wanted it."
Ji Feng wore a teasing smile.
"You're nothing but lies!" Tang San said as soon as he heard that.
His face darkened in an instant.
"Do you have any idea how much effort I put in? I was just about to defeat that Soul Beast, and then you suddenly showed up and stole the fruits of my victory!"
Tang San's voice was dark.
He glared at Ji Feng with a venomous look.
If his strength allowed it,
he really wanted to tear him limb from limb!
Ji Feng simply ignored the murderous looks from the master and disciple.
He turned away. "Don't be angry. You two got me expelled from Notting Academy. What more could you possibly want?"
"See ya."
Ji Feng yawned.
He slung the bow over his back.
Then he waved and swaggered off.
"Damn Ji Feng, you're asking for it!"
A vicious glint appeared in Tang San's eyes.
He was about to use the Tang Sect Hidden Weapons.
Just then,
Yu Xiaogang said, "Little San, forget him. He won't be smug for long. Keep training with me, and soon you'll leave that Ji Feng far behind!"
"My Ten Core Competencies of Spirit Masters are the most correct theories about Spirit Masters on the Douluo Continent!"
As he spoke,
Yu Xiaogang clenched his fist.
His face was brimming with confidence.
Seeing this,
Little Tang San finally nodded to himself.
"Ji Feng, just you wait."
"Next time we meet, you won't even be worthy of holding my shoes!"
Ji Feng left the outskirts of the Soul Hunting Forest.
He headed toward its center.
After obtaining his First Soul Ring,
Ji Feng hadn't gained a new Soul Skill from it.
Because of his Hou Yi Martial Soul,
his Soul Skills would always consist of one passive and three actives.
"Hou Yi's three skills are already enough."
"What I need to do now is figure out how to get equipment that only exists on the Honor Continent!"
According to the skill descriptions,
even though Ji Feng was currently on the Douluo Continent,
he could still use on-hit effects.
But to use on-hit effects, he needed equipment that was only available in Honor of Kings.
"How can I get equipment?"
At the thought,
a question formed in Ji Feng's mind.
Near the middle of the Soul Hunting Forest,
"Crack!"
With his bow on his back,
Ji Feng walked into a dense thicket of thorns.
His foot snapped a branch.
A birdlike Soul Beast suddenly swooped at him.
"A Wind-Tail Pheasant?"
"Only ten years old. Perfect for grinding levels."
Ji Feng smiled faintly.
He strode forward.
As he walked, he reached behind himself with one hand and pulled out his bow.
He nocked an arrow.
"Shoot!"
Whoosh!
An arrow wreathed in flames flew toward the Wind-Tail Pheasant.
"Bull's-eye!"
A shrill cry followed.
Then he fired another arrow.
Two arrows did the trick!
"A ten-year white Soul Ring."
"My Soul Power is still too weak. Even a ten-year Soul Beast takes two arrows to kill."
Whoosh!
Name: Ji Feng
Martial Soul: Hou Yi
Soul Power: Level 11 (110/2000)
He opened his personal status panel.
After absorbing his First Soul Ring,
his Soul Power had increased by one level.
He had reached Level 11.
Killing a ten-year Soul Beast had earned him 100 experience points.
"Another twenty Wind-Tail Pheasants, and I'll reach Level 12."
After parting ways with Tang San,
Ji Feng felt a growing sense of urgency.
He knew that, with Tang San's luck as the child of destiny,
he would have plenty of opportunities.
His opponent also had Innate Soul Power Level 10.
So,
he wanted to crush the protagonist group in levels first.
At the very least, he had to reach Level 40
and fill all four Soul Ring slots.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.
Over the course of the afternoon,
Ji Feng lost count of how many Soul Beasts he killed.
Ten-year ones.
One-hundred-year ones.
There were even two-hundred- and three-hundred-year Soul Beasts.
He opened his personal status panel.
Name: Ji Feng
Martial Soul: Hou Yi
Soul Power: Level 15 (120/6000)
"I only needed an afternoon to reach Level 15. Looks like I can break through to Level 20 by tomorrow!"
As long as he farmed monsters, he could gain Soul Power.
Compared with everyone else on the Douluo Continent, who had to cultivate their Soul Power,
this method of increasing his strength was a hundred times faster!
Boom!
Night fell.
Just as Ji Feng was about to call it a day and look for somewhere to spend the night,
a sound like the earth splitting rang out in the distance.
"That's a Soul Beast roaring."
Hearing the sound,
Ji Feng went on alert.
He followed the noise.
Then he pushed aside the bushes.
In an open area up ahead,
"Is that a Plant-type Soul Beast at least five hundred years old?!"
Looking at the enraged Soul Beast before him,
Ji Feng's expression changed.
He didn't even have the courage to solo a Soul Beast like that.
And yet, a girl in a purple dress, with short purple hair and stockings,
was fighting it.
"Hey!"
The girl let out a delicate cry.
Though it looked like she was fighting,
she was really just trying to escape.
After all, she was an auxiliary-type Soul Master.
"An auxiliary-type Soul Master, alone in the Soul Hunting Forest, facing a Jade Begonia that's at least five hundred years old?"
"Kill!"
Seeing a young girl in mortal danger,
Ji Feng couldn't bear to let the beautiful girl fall victim to the beast.
He rushed into action.
Whoosh!
The girl in the purple dress: !!?
Clearly,
Ji Feng's sudden appearance
made her cool eyes widen in surprise.
She said nothing.
He simply stepped in front of her,
taking a defensive stance.
"Shoot!"
Ji Feng said nothing.
He immediately summoned his Hou Yi Martial Soul.
Boom!
A bow appeared behind him.
His arrow struck the Jade Begonia,
which let out a shrill cry.
"Shoot again!"
Whoosh!
The arrow cut through the air with a sharp whistle.
Ji Feng kept moving to dodge its attacks.
The girl in the purple dress behind him, when Ji Feng summoned his Martial Soul,
hesitated for a moment.
Clearly, she had been astonished by his divine Martial Soul.
But she seemed naturally aloof.
Her eyes only brightened for an instant.
Then they returned to their usual calm.
"Damn it!"
"This Soul Beast is a full 700 years old! It's incredibly difficult to deal with!"
"Run!"
Ji Feng rolled away.
He looked a little worse for wear.
He turned his back to the girl.
The girl was taken aback when she heard him.
She froze for a moment.
She couldn't imagine why this person would save her.
She bit her lip lightly.
She seemed a little conflicted.
At that critical moment.
She released her Martial Soul.
"Nine-Heart Begonia!"
Whoosh!
As she made her move.
The Nine-Heart Begonia Martial Soul appeared.
A wave of healing energy.
Was cast onto Ji Feng.
"Holy crap, you can heal? Why didn't you do that earlier!"
Ji Feng was stunned.
Only then did he realize.
This girl who looked so quiet, cold, and aloof.
Was actually Ye Lingling!
After Ji Feng's complaint.
Ye Lingling's eyes grew even colder.
She didn't respond.
But Ji Feng was back to full health.
After that.
"Punishing Shot!"
"Multiple Arrows!"
"Sunset Glow!"
As the three skills struck the Soul Beast.
With a whimper, this 700-year-old Plant-type Martial Soul.
Was left with only one drop of health.
"Ye Lingling, finish it!"
Ji Feng shouted.
Ye Lingling looked up at his words, pausing briefly in surprise.
How did he know my name?!
