Shen Yifeng picked up his teacup and took a sip.
"It's nothing special. It can just enhance different attributes."
Xue Qinghe did not think it was that simple.
"Could you tell me the specific effects? I'm quite curious too. In return, you and your friends can eat at First Grade Pavilion for free from now on. How about that?"
Gu Yuena perked up her ears, stopped what she was doing, and nodded repeatedly with starry eyes.
Shen Yifeng did not know whether to laugh or cry. She really was a foodie.
There was no harm in telling her.
"My first soul skill enhances my teammates' strength attribute. My second soul skill strengthens their Soul Power and Soul Power recovery speed."
"If these effects are applied to dragon-type Martial Souls, their effects are doubled."
Having received the answer she wanted, Xue Qinghe gained a preliminary understanding. During the soul fight, Shen Yifeng's Martial Soul Possession had produced an exceptionally beautiful Martial Soul. It would not have been an exaggeration to call it the most beautiful Martial Soul on the continent. (In Douluo I, it was the first. Without the Light Goddess Butterfly, the second place was universally acknowledged as second.)
Not bad. Its support effects were also very powerful. If the team had two Soul Masters with dragon-type Martial Souls, it would greatly enhance the team's overall combat strength.
Its speed was also very fast. Coupled with Shen Yifeng's two absurd abilities—main offense, main defense, and damage reflection—it was truly tempting.
"A very powerful Martial Soul. Compared with the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda, do you think it surpasses it or stands on equal footing?"
The Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda was acknowledged as the number one support Martial Soul, but with the appearance of the Rainbow Dragon, its position at the top was in grave danger.
"It can absolutely rival the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda, and may even be superior."
Shen Yifeng said this with great confidence.
"Rival it? Surpass it? Young man, you're quite arrogant."
"If you're not arrogant, you're not young."
Xue Qinghe laughed heartily. She admitted that the Rainbow Dragon was indeed excellent, especially with the enhancement of its two abilities.
If she had to choose, she would definitely choose the Rainbow Dragon rather than the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda.
Once an Auxiliary System Soul Master possessed the ability to protect themselves, they could avoid many troubles and reduce the burden on the team.
With that, the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda was no longer quite so appealing.
Shen Yifeng's personality alone suited her tastes rather well.
She needed to think of a way to see whether she could recruit him.
"Burp~"
Qian Renxue, who had been entering a state of highly precise calculations, was suddenly interrupted by that sound.
When she looked up, she discovered that every dish on the table had been finished.
That was right, every single one!
There had been so much food, and one person had finished it all!
Xue Qinghe rubbed her eyes, staring in shock at Gu Yuena, who sat in her chair and burped contentedly.
"The taste was decent." Gu Yuena took a sip of tea.
"Miss, did you finish all of that by yourself?"
Seeing Xue Qinghe's incredulous expression, Gu Yuena answered with ease:
"That wasn't enough. Bring more."
Xue Qinghe's heart skipped a beat. It was not because she was afraid Gu Yuena would eat too much, but because she was genuinely stunned by her appetite.
Who could eat that much?
Those dishes had been enough for five people, hadn't they?
One person equaled five people.
It seemed there was indeed a reason these two had ended up together.
"No problem."
"There's nothing this place has more of than food."
Next, Xue Qinghe once again ordered the guards outside to inform the kitchen to prepare more dishes.
Very soon,
A waiter pushed open the door, carrying three heaping plates of food.
When he saw the spotless empty plates on the table, the tray in his hands suddenly shook.
"This..."
He raised his head to look at Gu Yuena, his eyes widening round as his face filled with disbelief.
Gu Yuena's eyes lit up. She picked up her chopsticks and grabbed a piece of braised pork.
"What are you standing there for? Just put it down."
The guard hurriedly placed the dishes down. As he left, he could not help turning back for another look.
Not long afterward, two more guards entered carrying dishes.
When they saw that half of the three newly served plates had already been cleared, they exchanged a glance and saw astonishment in each other's eyes.
They carefully set down the dishes, not daring to make the slightest sound.
Over the next half hour, waiters streamed in endlessly with dishes.
Every person who entered showed a shocked expression upon seeing Gu Yuena eat and the plates being emptied at terrifying speed.
Even the kitchen chefs came out to watch, whispering among themselves.
"This young lady can really eat, can't she?"
"I've been a chef for twenty years, and I've never seen a little girl who could eat this much."
"It's almost twenty plates already. How can her stomach hold it all?"
Xue Qinghe sat across from her, her initial shock having already turned into numbness.
She watched Gu Yuena take bite after bite, eating with relish without even raising her head.
Shen Yifeng drank his tea and explained helplessly:
"She has always had a huge appetite. You'll get used to it."
Gu Yuena swallowed the last bite, put down her chopsticks, and let out a satisfied burp.
"I'm finally full."
The table was once again piled high with empty plates.
Xue Qinghe cleared her throat and tried to maintain her composure:
"Miss, you certainly have an impressive appetite."
"It's average."
Gu Yuena wiped her mouth. "It would have been even better with some Sub-Dragon Meat."
Xue Qinghe: "..."
She finally understood why Shen Yifeng could be with Gu Yuena.
A girl who could eat this much was truly impossible to support without some money.
She had found the meal lacking and even wanted Sub-Dragon Meat.
One could well imagine how rare Sub-Dragon Meat was.
Seeing Gu Yuena speak so casually, it was obvious she had eaten it often enough.
Her worldview was being overturned. She had thought children this age could not eat much, at most three bowls of rice, but Gu Yuena felt like a bottomless pit.
This time, it did not seem as though Gu Yuena had eaten her fill, but rather as if she had grown tired of eating.
"Young man, let's talk again when we have the chance."
"This establishment will remember your names. You won't need to bring anything. If anyone stops you, simply reveal your Martial Soul."
The Rainbow Dragon Martial Soul was highly recognizable.
Simply displaying it would be enough.
"Then, Your Highness the Crown Prince, we won't trouble you any longer."
Shen Yifeng had barely eaten anything. To be honest, the chocolate from earlier had been enough to stave off his hunger.
Holding Gu Yuena's hand, he left First Grade Pavilion with her.
After the two left, Xue Qinghe sat in her chair and sank into thought.
She could already eat this much now. What would happen once she grew up?
In the future, Gu Yuena's appetite alone would make everyone remember her.
She had left far too deep an impression.
Across from the room was another restaurant, with the windows of the two establishments facing each other, allowing Bi Ji to observe them clearly.
"Xiong Jun has left. The Mistress and Lord have finished eating."
"Burp. I'm full." Xiong Jun patted his round belly with a satisfied expression. "Let's go. I'm full too."
The two who had left First Grade Pavilion were heading back to the other courtyard.
"Yifeng, I didn't embarrass you, did I?"
Only after coming outside did Gu Yuena belatedly realize her loss of composure, fearing that she had embarrassed her husband.
"Of course not. Being able to eat is a blessing. Besides, we didn't spend any money."
Shen Yifeng had not thought of it as embarrassing at all.
"That's good."
Gu Yuena sighed in relief. She was very full. Perhaps tonight she should learn some Dragon Knight moves and get some exercise, preparing for their future wedding night.
