Ghost Fire Girl Yu Feiyan

A strange thing had been happening in Nuoding City over the past half-month.

Some people had spotted two small figures at night.

They darted through every corner of Nuoding City with such speed that their appearances remained a blur.

Some people linked these two figures to the recent improvement in the city's public security.

At the same time, the children in the city had gained their own king, as well as a queen.

That's right, Ying Chengfeng had gone and made himself king among the children.

Qian Renxue, meanwhile, had taken on the role of the second-in-command.

On this day, in a melon field spanning ten acres, a group of children surrounded a young boy and girl in the center.

The boy was incredibly handsome with sharp, piercing eyes.

The girl was beautiful and elegant, her smile as bright as a flower.

They were none other than Ying Chengfeng and Qian Renxue.

Just then, a chubby little boy with a runny nose said to the two of them, "Big Boss, Second Boss, school starts tomorrow, so we won't be able to play with you anymore."

"Is it time for school already?" Ying Chengfeng was slightly stunned.

Calculating the days, it was about right.

Under normal circumstances, the start of the school year falls three months after the annual Martial Soul Awakening Day.

These three months allow children who have just awakened their martial souls an adjustment period, while also giving them time to decide which school to attend or to prepare for enrollment.

At the same time, the school season is autumn.

Ying Chengfeng said to the group of children, "The weather is getting cold, so make sure to stay warm and don't catch a cold."

After speaking, Ying Chengfeng looked toward the Soul Master Academy in Nuoding City.

He wondered if the injuries he had inflicted on Yu Xiaogang over half a month ago had healed yet.

This year, Tang San might also be coming to the Soul Master Academy in Nuoding City.

If Tang San were there, it wouldn't be very convenient to lay a hand on Yu Xiaogang.

It wasn't that he feared Tang San, but rather that he feared Tang Hao might suddenly pop up.

He had brought Qian Renxue out with him, after all.

It would be disastrous if Tang Hao were to recognize Qian Renxue as the descendant of the Angel.

At this moment, a child's voice interrupted Ying Chengfeng's thoughts.

"Big Boss, why don't you guys come to school with us?"

Hearing this, Ying Chengfeng was stunned once again.

He turned to look at Qian Renxue to ask for her opinion, "Do you want to go to school?"

"Would it be very troublesome?" Qian Renxue wasn't entirely ignorant of the world.

To attend a Soul Master Academy, one must first have a certificate issued by Martial Soul Hall.

It proves that you have awakened a martial soul and are capable of cultivating soul power.

However, Ying Chengfeng and Qian Renxue possessed none of these things.

It also wasn't very convenient for them to go to Martial Soul Hall to register.

Ying Chengfeng didn't have much of a problem; he could summon his sword to act as his martial soul.

Although having 26 levels of soul power in a seven-year-old body was quite shocking, he was still better off than Qian Renxue.

If Qian Renxue's martial soul were to be revealed, it would likely shake Martial Soul Hall to its core.

Seeming to notice Ying Chengfeng's hesitation, Qian Renxue smiled sweetly and said, "It doesn't matter whether we go to school or not; the Soul Master Academy only teaches some basic knowledge anyway."

Ying Chengfeng nodded.

That was the truth; they could learn everything taught at the Soul Master Academy just by reading books.

However, generally speaking, there was another purpose to attending school: having the academy teachers help hunt for soul rings.

Of course, Ying Chengfeng didn't need that either.

The teachers at the Soul Master Academy wouldn't be able to help him hunt for soul rings that met his requirements.

Ying Chengfeng looked at the other children and asked, "Are there any of you who aren't going to school?"

This question was rather heavy.

Because not going to school often meant one wasn't qualified to attend.

A soul master is a noble profession.

If they had the means, who wouldn't want to be a soul master?

However, the fact that they could be gathered together to play by Ying Chengfeng meant they all possessed soul power.

Ying Chengfeng had gone to great lengths to organize this group of people to serve as playmates for Qian Renxue.

However, one thin, frail girl pursed her lips before speaking up: "I might not be going to school anymore."

"Oh? Why is that?" Ying Chengfeng looked at her.

The girl said, "My spirit power is only level two, and my martial soul is Ghost Fire. My parents are urging me to quit school."

"Ghost Fire? That's fantastic!" Ying Chengfeng laughed instead.

The snotty little fatty from before frowned slightly and said, "Big Boss, Ghost Fire is widely recognized as a trash martial soul. It has no physical form and no offensive capabilities. What could possibly be good about it?"

Ying Chengfeng did not respond to the little fatty's question, but instead looked at the girl and asked, "What is your name?"

The girl kept her head down, not daring to meet Ying Chengfeng's eyes, and said timidly, "Yu Feiyan. My name is Yu Feiyan."

Ying Chengfeng nodded and asked again, "Have you registered your information at Martial Soul Hall?"

Yu Feiyan was silent for a few seconds before saying, "I have."

"Mm, I see." After saying this, Ying Chengfeng looked at the others. "You are all going to school, right?"

The little fatty seemed to sense something and said, "Big Boss, you aren't leaving, are you?"

Over these past few days, aside from using force to intimidate them the first time, Ying Chengfeng had spent every day teaching them combat experience and the concepts of strengthening martial souls.

To children of the same age who were also powerful, Ying Chengfeng's words carried great weight.

They had all come to regard the "martial soul strengthening philosophy" that Ying Chengfeng spoke of as the absolute truth!

Ying Chengfeng answered the little fatty's question, saying, "That's right. It's been a pleasure knowing you all, but we have to leave now."

Hearing this, several of the children showed expressions of extreme reluctance.

Children's joys and sorrows are easily written on their faces.

Watching the reluctance and disappointment etched onto their faces, Ying Chengfeng smiled and said, "If you make something of yourselves in the future, you can come find me. Remember, my name is Ying Chengfeng."

These children finally learned Ying Chengfeng's name; they had usually just called him "Big Boss."

The little fatty then asked, "Boss Ying Chengfeng, where can we find you?"

"You'll know in the future. My name will ring out across the entire continent!"

The group of children didn't see anything wrong with Ying Chengfeng's statement; children have high spirits, or perhaps, very little perspective.

One could call it being naive and inexperienced.

"Alright, it's time to say goodbye." Ying Chengfeng smiled gently at them.

The group of children left reluctantly.

"Yu Feiyan."

The girl named Yu Feiyan had walked a dozen seconds away when she suddenly heard Ying Chengfeng call her name.

As she turned around, Ying Chengfeng was standing right behind her.

"Is something wrong?" Yu Feiyan still kept her head down, not daring to look at him.

Perhaps it was because girls are thin-skinned, or perhaps because Qian Renxue was too outstanding, but she felt inferior.

Ying Chengfeng asked, "If you aren't going to school, do you want to come with us?"

Yu Feiyan was stunned, and it took her a long while to say, "You want me to run away from home? To go with you?"

Ying Chengfeng looked at her and smiled. "That's right. I'll take you to defy the heavens and change your fate! Are you willing to come with us?"

"Defy... the heavens and change my fate?" Yu Feiyan finally looked up at Ying Chengfeng.

She was very pretty, possessing a delicate beauty.

Ying Chengfeng said to her, "Ghost Fire has no physical form and no offensive power because it is dead. Do you want to make it come alive?"

Yu Feiyan did not understand.

Ying Chengfeng didn't expect her to understand either, but instead looked toward the distant east.

It seemed he would have to sneak back to Martial Soul Hall.
