Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda... Nine Heart Begonia,

Bi Ji listened confidently, as if it were rare for her to hear Shen Yifeng explain something.

She did not dare slack off in the slightest. As a healing-type Soul Beast, the more she understood, the better.

"The Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda is the continent's most well-rounded support Martial Soul. In its seven-treasure form, it can support at most seven people."

"Seven people? Then does this Martial Soul have any drawbacks?"

If it could support only so many, then there had to be a limit.

"Of course. Because it is merely a seven-story pagoda, it can only gain seven Soul Rings. If you want more, you must break through its limits and evolve it into the Nine Treasures Glazed Pagoda. Then it can absorb nine Soul Rings and support nine people."

"Furthermore, it has no offensive or defensive power of its own and must be protected throughout the battle. High-level enhancements consume enormous amounts of Soul Power, so it cannot fight a prolonged battle.

Of course, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect has a unique secret technique called the Distraction Control Secret Technique. It was created to conserve Soul Power and provide precise enhancements."

Listening to Shen Yifeng's explanation, Bi Ji roughly came to a judgment. Its healing ability must therefore be limited.

My wife is so knowledgeable. My wife is the true master.

What kind of master is that Yu Xiaogang? He wants to become my wife's teacher just by knowing some theories.

That man is greedy too. If he gets my wife to acknowledge him as her master, he can teach me as well.

Unfortunately, my wife's talent is too high. She does not need any teacher's guidance at all.

What she needs most is a husband like me. Fortunately, no one is competing with me.

Shen Yifeng paused, then began talking about the Nine Heart Begonia.

"As for the Nine Heart Begonia, it is the continent's number one healing Martial Soul. Its most unique feature is that no matter how many Soul Rings are attached to it, it will always have only one Soul Skill: area-wide group healing. The Soul Rings only increase the intensity of the healing."

"As long as someone still has a breath left, whether their limbs have been severed or their internal organs shattered, they can be completely healed."

Bi Ji clicked her tongue in amazement. The Nine Heart Begonia seemed especially compatible with her when it came to healing injuries.

With such ultimate healing ability, it could only follow the path of healing.

"However, its inheritance restriction is the harshest among all Martial Souls."

Shen Yifeng's tone became serious.

"At most, only two Nine Heart Begonia Soul Masters can exist on the entire continent at the same time. They are usually mother and daughter. If the previous generation has not died, then even if the next generation awakens the Martial Soul, she cannot unleash its full power."

"Moreover, it can only heal injuries. It cannot restore Soul Power or cure deadly poison. It likewise has no combat strength of its own and is the first target to be instantly killed on the battlefield."

Like the Sharp-Tailed Swift of the Speed Clan, the Soul Rings absorbed by the Nine Heart Begonia could only increase agility. However, its healing ability was highly sought after.

Having gained a general understanding, Bi Ji weighed things in her heart and ultimately arrived at two words: It's settled!

With her healing ability, winning the championship would not be a problem.

She was confident now.

The mistress knows so much.

"Then I will not disturb you any longer."

Bi Ji stood up and prepared to leave.

If she stayed any longer, she would interfere with her lord's pursuit of the mistress.

"Doctor Bi Ji, take care. I will not see you off."

Shen Yifeng had no intention of escorting her out.

Bi Ji did not dare ask. Before leaving, she closed the wooden door and quickly departed.

After Bi Ji left.

"Come, try out my second ability."

"Your Rainbow Body's second ability—how do you want me to cooperate?"

Gu Yuena put away her smile and immediately prepared herself. She absolutely could not let him down.

Let's see how I make my wife fall for me step by step.

"My Martial Soul's second ability turns my skin into orange rock, increasing my defensive attributes by eighty percent."

This second ability could block the attacks of Soul Masters at nearly the same level.

For example, it could block the attacks of the Four Element Academies.

"Orange rock... what does it look like?"

Gu Yuena was extremely curious.

Could it be that my wife will turn into a hard stone man?

"Watch closely."

Shen Yifeng activated Rainbow Body. Orange light seeped out from beneath his skin and quickly covered his entire body.

His originally fair skin took on the texture of hard rock. Under the sunlight, it glimmered faintly and looked indestructible.

"Like this."

"So cool."

Gu Yuena reached out and poked his arm. Her fingertips met an icy, hard texture.

"It feels just like real stone."

"Yifeng, does that mean your whole body is hard?"

"Of course my whole body is hard. How else could I defend myself properly if it were not?"

Gu Yuena raised an eyebrow and smiled.

Hard all over, huh? Very good.

"Try attacking me with all your strength."

Shen Yifeng stood where he was, his tone calm.

Gu Yuena nodded and raised both hands.

Ice condensed in her left hand while a fireball ignited in her right. Both shot toward Shen Yifeng at the same time.

Ice and fire collided with a sizzling sound, all of it crashing into Shen Yifeng's chest.

When the dust cleared, Shen Yifeng had not moved an inch. There was not even a white mark on his body.

"That powerful?"

Gu Yuena was somewhat surprised.

She increased her Soul Power and attacked again.

"Ice-Fire Tornado!"

A tornado woven from ice and fire swept over him, completely enveloping Shen Yifeng.

Just as Gu Yuena was about to withdraw her hands, she suddenly felt a rebounding force that left her arms numb.

"Huh? Why does it reflect damage too?"

Gu Yuena was surprised. It even had a damage reflection effect?

My wife actually did not tell me.

No, I have to punish her fiercely tonight.

If she will not tell me, then I will knock her out every day until she gets used to it.

"This is Rock Body's exclusive ability."

Shen Yifeng's voice came from within the tornado.

"When an enemy attacks me, they suffer fifty percent reflected damage."

The tornado gradually dispersed, and Shen Yifeng remained completely unscathed.

"Moreover, I can harden specific areas to precisely block fatal attacks."

As he spoke, he released the full-body hardening, leaving only a patch of orange rock on his right arm.

Gu Yuena refused to believe it. Clenching her fist, she smashed it hard into his arm.

With a bang.

She shook her aching hand and bared her teeth as she said:

"It really is so hard!"

Its hardness was high, and it could reflect damage. If anyone truly dared to launch a sneak attack later, they would have to consider whether they could withstand it.

Its support abilities were incredible. With the Rainbow Dragon Martial Soul's enhancement as well, if the team had more Dragon-type Martial Souls in the future, they would be invincible.

Shen Yifeng withdrew Rainbow Body, and his skin returned to normal.

"The hardness is high, but if an opponent wants to use their full strength to deal with me, they can still do it. But that would mean injuring the enemy for a thousand while harming themselves for eight hundred."

Rainbow Body's abilities were all designed to protect his own safety.

On that foundation, they could also disgust his opponents.

"Yifeng, I have to say, you are really abnormal."

Yifeng really is formidable. Mm, the path of pursuit continues.

Gu Yuena: I have loved devotedly all my life. During my next confession, I must display my true charm.

This body is still too small and does not show what I truly look like when I am beautiful.

Once I reveal my beautiful side, I refuse to believe Yifeng will not take the bait.

"Yifeng, look. It's getting dark."

Gu Yuena looked up. The formerly clear sky had somehow become covered in dark clouds.

"It's getting dark. Doesn't that mean there will soon be a rainbow?"
