"Cheers!"

In an exquisitely elegant private room in Heaven Dou City, Shui Bing'er and the others were holding a celebration banquet.

Over this period, they had won battle after battle, cutting through every opponent in their path and claiming many victories.

Skywater Academy's reputation had soared to the heavens.

Some teams had even lost all fighting spirit and surrendered the moment they stepped onto the field.

Leng Qishuang was naturally present at the celebration banquet as well. Watching the happy girls, she smiled warmly.

Things had really been going smoothly for them.

Bing'er should be happy too...

Leng Qishuang looked at Shui Bing'er, who appeared to be all smiles.

Shui Bing'er truly was happy, but there was also a faint shadow in her heart.

It was Meng Chen. Meng Chen still had not awakened.

Shui Bing'er truly missed Meng Chen.

So she drank far more than usual. Drunk and barely conscious, she was eventually carried back to her room by Leng Qishuang.

"Mm... I'm not drunk... I can still drink..."

Shui Bing'er murmured.

Leng Qishuang smiled knowingly and began removing Shui Bing'er's outer robe and shoes. Her fair, delicate little feet, as lovely as snow cream, were revealed, their soft pink toenails gleaming like pink ice crystals.

Then Leng Qishuang brought over hot water and wiped Shui Bing'er's face.

Shui Bing'er continued murmuring, "Master... Master..."

Hearing her murmur like that, Leng Qishuang set down the hot water and towel, tenderly stroking her daughter's cheek.

But in her dazed state, Shui Bing'er mistook Leng Qishuang for Meng Chen. She immediately wrapped her arms around her, pulled her onto the bed, and cried, "Master... I miss you so much..."

A kiss as bright and vivid as a cherry landed upon a soft, delicate cheek like congealed cream.

This child.

Helpless, Leng Qishuang let her daughter do as she pleased.

Several days later, for Skywater Academy's match against Blue Tyrant Academy, the Great Soul Arena was packed to capacity.

In the past, the Great Soul Arena could at most be described as having no empty seats. This time, after all the seated tickets had sold out, the Great Soul Arena had actually introduced standing tickets.

Sweat and excitement mingled together, and the air was filled with a suffocating heat.

"Why are there so many people?" Yu Hairou poked her head out from the lounge and was startled by the sea of heads outside. "There are more than twice as many as in the previous matches, aren't there? The entire Great Soul Arena is full of people. Some can't even find room to stand and have spilled into the aisles!"

"That's exaggerated!" Xue Wu, standing behind her, refuted her. "I heard this match is especially popular. The Great Soul Arena has been making a spectacle of it—not only did they raise ticket prices, they also started selling standing tickets. Even those sold out. There are a full hundred thousand people in the Battle Soul Arena right now."

"Why?" Yu Hairou blinked.

Xue Wu shook her head. "Who knows?"

Afterward, the competitors from both sides entered the arena.

The moment they stepped out of the passageway, a wave of sound crashed into them, the uproar of a hundred thousand people making it hard to breathe.

On the other side, leading Blue Tyrant Academy was Tang San.

Tang San wore a dark blue competition uniform, his expression exceptionally resolute.

One hand rested on Twenty-Four Bridges Moonlight Night, while his eyes remained fixed on Shui Bing'er across from him. The hatred in his gaze was so intense that even the spectators could feel it.

Behind Tang San stood Xiao Wu, Tailong, Huang Yuan, Jiang Zhu...

The crowd's emotions reached their peak at that moment.

"Blue Tyrant Academy! Blue Tyrant Academy! Blue Tyrant Academy!"

"Skywater Academy! Shui Bing'er! Shui Bing'er!"

Tang San's gaze crossed the battle platform and fell upon Shui Bing'er's face as he walked step by step toward the center.

The contestants from both sides faced one another. Looking at Shui Bing'er, Tang San raised his voice so loudly that it even carried across the entire Battle Soul Arena. "Shui Bing'er, I told you, I won't let you off!"

"You think defeating Teacher Liu Erlong makes you so impressive? Let me tell you, I'll make you pay the price today, right here, in front of a hundred thousand people!"

The stands immediately erupted with thunderous cheers.

"Did you hear that? Tang San from Blue Tyrant Academy said he'll make Shui Bing'er pay the price!"

"Damn, Blue Tyrant Academy really has confidence! It looks like they really prepared something to deal with Shui Bing'er!"

"That's what I'm saying. Blue Tyrant Academy isn't stupid. They knew Shui Bing'er could defeat Liu Erlong and still came here instead of sending themselves to their deaths. They must have come prepared!"

"What kind of method do you think they have?"

"Who knows? A clash of titans, bandits meeting hooligans! These tickets were worth fighting for!"

As the spectators' discussions reached the battle platform, Xue Wu and the others finally understood why there were so many people at this match.

It turned out Tang San had declared long ago that he possessed a way to deal with Shui Bing'er and avenge his teacher!

That had immediately piqued the interest of most people in Heaven Dou City, creating the spectacle of so many people rushing to buy tickets.

Tang San's face was filled with a cold sneer.

Over the past few days, he had received full support from Blue Tyrant Academy and That Great One. He had devoted himself to preparing Tang Sect methods, intending to kill Shui Bing'er in the arena. Aside from avenging his teacher, he wanted the audience to see who was truly in charge!

That was also why Tang San had deliberately used Soul Power to spread his voice throughout the Great Soul Arena just now. After this battle, he would become famous!

Shui Bing'er only regarded Tang San as a barking dog.

When a dog barked at a person, did the person need to bark back?

All she needed was to heat up a pot of oil, toss in star anise, cinnamon, angelica root, and thirteen-spice powder, and the problem of a disobedient dog would be cured for good.

Meng Chen had taught Shui Bing'er that.

"The match begins!"

The instant the referee's words fell—

Tang San's hand swept across Twenty-Four Bridges Moonlight Night, and three silver needles as fine as cow hairs shot from between his fingers, moving so quickly that they were impossible to see with the naked eye.

The silver needles traced three silvery arcs through the air, shooting straight at the faces of Xue Wu, Yu Hairou, and Gu Qingbo.

Shui Bing'er's Soul Rings lit up—Soul Skill: Ice Ring Armor.

A layer of crystalline ice armor appeared on Xue Wu and the others, wrapping them tightly from head to toe.

The three silver needles struck the Ice Ring Armor with three crisp dings before immediately bouncing away.

Tang San's expression instantly turned grave.

With Soul Power enhancement, the Tang Sect's hidden weapon techniques possessed enough piercing power to shoot through iron plates.

Yet before Shui Bing'er's Ice Ring Armor, they had not even left a mark.

But that was fine. Those had only been meant to disrupt Shui Bing'er's judgment. His true killing move was still to come!

Tang San then continuously threw out all kinds of strange hidden weapons, attempting to interfere with Xue Wu and the others.

Shui Bing'er frowned, her figure flashing forward as she swiftly closed in on Tang San.

"She's coming!"

Seeing Shui Bing'er finally charge at him, Tang San was overjoyed.

From Twenty-Four Bridges Moonlight Night, he drew several golden threads as fine as hair.

Dragon Whisker Needle!

Normally soft as silk, they became hard as steel once infused with Soul Power and specialized in breaking protective Soul Power!

This thing could even pierce Teacher Zhao's defenses, let alone Shui Bing'er, a mere Soul Emperor!

Come on, Shui Bing'er. I'll shoot you dead!

Shui Bing'er was incredibly fast. In the blink of an eye, she was less than five meters from Tang San.

Tang San immediately flicked his hand in secret, sending several Dragon Whisker Needles flying discreetly from between his fingers.

The instant they flew out, the Dragon Whisker Needles transformed from soft golden threads into hard golden needles, glinting with a faint cold light.

Tang San did not stop there. He immediately took a replica King of Hell's Post from Twenty-Four Bridges Moonlight Night.

With the full support of Blue Tyrant Academy and That Great One, Tang San had acquired all kinds of poisonous substances to create this hidden weapon.

A double effect, two kills with one post!

A deadly poison, with no antidote.
