Xiao Jinchen took the information card, glanced at it, and quickly wrote down his basic details.

Xiao Jinchen soon finished filling out the card and casually handed it to Losk.

When Losk saw the contents of the card clearly, his pupils suddenly contracted.

Name: Xiao Jinchen

Age: Twelve

Martial Souls: Twin Martial Souls, Fiery Golden Eyes/Emperor Flame

Cultivation: Level 70

Spirit Ring Configuration: Yellow, Purple, Black, Black, Black, Red

Affiliation: Soul Hall

"Th-this..." Losk looked at the standards on the card, standards no human should possibly be able to reach, then turned a doubtful gaze toward Xiao Jinchen.

"Everything on the card is true." Xiao Jinchen gently shook his head and took a step forward. Yellow, purple, black, black, black, and red—six Spirit Rings immediately rose from beneath his feet.

Six Spirit Rings silently emerged beneath Xiao Jinchen's feet, their pressure staggering.

"He really is a level seventy Spirit Sage! A ten-thousand-year fourth ring?! A hundred-thousand-year sixth ring?!" Feeling the aura emanating from Xiao Jinchen, one that had already surpassed his own, Losk could not help crying out in shock.

Losk had originally thought Xiao Jinchen was merely some spoiled young master relying on his family's influence to throw his weight around. But faced with this genuine Spirit Ring configuration, he understood that Xiao Jinchen truly had the strength to back it up!

"Young friend, you are truly a heaven-sent genius! To reach the Spirit Sage realm at twelve—your future is terrifying beyond measure." Losk hurriedly began flattering him.

"Just luck." Xiao Jinchen smiled faintly. "Dean Losk, the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Tournament should be in a month, right?"

"Yes. Zhengtian Academy has already selected a team to represent us in the competition," Losk answered.

"Just arrange a spot for me. I'll return in a month." Xiao Jinchen casually waved his hand, then left Zhengtian Academy with the Ice Empress.

"They're finally gone." Losk let out a sigh of relief.

"What a monster..." Losk muttered, picking up the information card on his desk to inspect it again.

"Hmm! No, wait!" Losk froze slightly, staring at the final line on the card as he read out its affiliation word by word.

"Affiliation: Soul... Hall!" Losk's mind instantly went blank.

"Could it be the mysterious organization, Soul Hall, that everyone has been talking about lately?

"The Soul Hall that descended upon the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect and stole two hundred million Gold Soul Coins!"

Losk felt a chill rush from the soles of his feet straight to the top of his head. If that was the case, then the elder sister Xiao Jinchen had mentioned must have been a Limit Douluo!

"Gasp!"

Losk sharply sucked in a breath, unable to stop himself from thinking, A Limit Douluo! That was a Limit Douluo! I actually saw a Limit Douluo just now!

"Ah Chen, why did you want to participate in that Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Tournament? It sounds so boring." The Ice Empress asked in confusion.

"Bing'er, think about it. I'm a twelve-year-old Spirit Sage. If I take on seven of Shrek Academy's elites alone and grind them into the dirt before the entire continent, we can publicize Soul Hall's prestige while ruining Shrek Academy's reputation. Wouldn't that be wonderful?" Xiao Jinchen patiently explained.

Going after Shrek was merely incidental. Xiao Jinchen's primary targets were the Snow Empress Embryo and the Spirit Devouring Carving Knife. When the time came, he would simply seize them directly—whoever bought them would be the unlucky one.

"Wonderful my ass!" The Ice Empress rolled her eyes without any restraint, crossing her arms over her chest as she said resentfully, "Fine, fine. You get to go crush weaklings and have all the fun. What about me?"

"Hehehe, that's why it'll be your turn next, Bing'er." Xiao Jinchen gave a strange laugh. "When the time comes, I'll beat their students until their arms and legs are broken, forcing their team leader to come out."

"Then it'll be time for you to make your grand entrance, Bing'er. The moment you appear, everything will be settled!" Xiao Jinchen's lips curled into a crafty smile. "Bing'er? What do you think?"

"Draw out the team leader... then I make my entrance..." The Ice Empress murmured, the fire in her eyes growing ever more intense.

"Ah Chen, why do I feel like you're getting worse and worse?" The Ice Empress said with a smile.

"I've always been this bad." Xiao Jinchen wore a wicked grin as he stared at her with blazing eyes.

Before his words had even faded, Xiao Jinchen suddenly wrapped an arm around the Ice Empress's slender waist, brutally pulling her into his embrace as he lowered his head and kissed her soft lips.

"Mmph!"

A muffled groan was trapped between their lips.

The Ice Empress's amber eyes widened instantly. She had just tried to struggle when he tightly restrained her in his arms, leaving her no choice but to passively endure Xiao Jinchen's sudden assault.

Only after a long while, when the Ice Empress's beautiful face had turned crimson and her breathing had fallen into disorder, did Xiao Jinchen slowly release her.

"Bing'er, I need to make a trip to the Exotic Flame Space first." Xiao Jinchen's fingertip lightly brushed across the moisture at the corner of her lips.

"Hmph!" The Ice Empress bit her lower lip and glared fiercely at him. "Go, then. I can't be bothered to follow you!"

Xiao Jinchen gave the Ice Empress a gentle smile before opening a spatial rift leading to the Exotic Flame Space.

Just as Xiao Jinchen was about to turn and step into the spatial rift before him, a small, slightly cool hand suddenly tugged at the corner of his robes.

Xiao Jinchen paused and turned to look at the Ice Empress. A teasing grin rose on his lips. "What? Bing'er, can't bear to part with me?"

"Don't flatter yourself!" The Ice Empress haughtily turned her head away.

Seeing her say one thing while meaning another, Xiao Jinchen did not expose her. He merely reached back, took hold of her soft hand, and interlocked his fingers with hers.

"Fine, then we'll go together."

With that, Xiao Jinchen pulled the Ice Empress forward, and the two stepped into the spatial rift before them.

When Xiao Jinchen and the Ice Empress opened their eyes again, they were already within the familiar Exotic Flame Space.

Twenty-three towering stone pillars stood majestically around them, each entwined with flames of a different color and emanating energy fluctuations that made one's heart tremble.

"Bing'er, wait for me here." Xiao Jinchen patted the Ice Empress's hand and walked toward one of the stone pillars entwined with pale-white flames.

Upon the weathered stone pillar, pale-white flames coiled tightly like spiritual serpents. Extreme cold and searing heat intertwined, resembling an icy demonic lotus.

"Eleventh on the Heavenly Flame RankingBone Chilling Flame!" Xiao Jinchen murmured as he looked at the pale-white flames entwined around the stone pillar before him.

The Bone Chilling Flame was born in lands of extreme cold and extreme yin. It could only be encountered when the sun and moon alternated once every hundred years.

The Bone Chilling Flame was entirely pale white. It possessed the unique power of both ice and fire, capable of freezing a thousand miles, turning enemies into ice sculptures, and then subjecting them to searing heat.

"You'll do." Emperor Flame rose from Xiao Jinchen's palm as he struck the stone pillar sealing the Bone Chilling Flame with a single palm.

Boom!

A crisp cracking sound erupted, and the rune seal on the stone pillar instantly became covered in spiderweb-like fractures.

Immediately afterward, a terrifying storm of extreme cold erupted from the point of impact. The pale-white flames shot into the sky, completely breaking free of their restraints!
