"If you're determined to die, then don't blame me!"

Huo Wu wasted no more words. The fourth, thousand-year Soul Ring on her body began to flash wildly!

She raised both hands high, once again revealing her perfect figure in all its glory. Paired with her crimson hair and skin, she had an eerily bewitching beauty!

Then, at the center of her raised hands, a red-and-white fireball slowly took shape!

The instant it appeared, the temperature throughout the Soul Fighting Arena shot up!

As Soul Power continued pouring into it, the fireball grew larger and larger, until it was nearly two zhang across!

Huo Wu's body trembled slightly below. Like a sun goddess, she looked down at Lin Fan from above!

"Lin Fan, it's not too late to admit defeat. Once I release this, even I won't be able to control it!"

Huo Wu stared at Lin Fan and warned him once more!

"Heh, a big, round little sun. It looks a bit like you..."

But Lin Fan seemed not to have heard a word she said. His eyes were fixed straight on her chest!

"Blazing Dance Sun Flare!"

Faced with this lecher, Huo Wu's fury finally erupted. With a roar like the final judgment, she sent the sun-like fireball hurtling down from the sky toward Lin Fan!

"Reinforce the energy barrier!"

As the blazing sun descended, the Soul Fighting Arena's manager gave the order. Four powerful elders darted to the four corners of the Soul Fighting Arena, pouring every last bit of their Soul Power into the energy barrier!

The fireball drew closer. The space around it warped slightly from the intense heat, yet Lin Fan remained below with his hands clasped behind his back!

"Has that kid been scared witless?!"

"It's too late for him to dodge now. Even a Soul Emperor would struggle to withstand an attack like that, let alone some brat who hasn't even activated his Martial Soul!"

"What a pity. Lin Fan may be a genius, but he's far too arrogant. He'll pay the price for his own hubris!"

Sighs rose from the spectators' seats. Many turned their heads away, seemingly unable to bear watching Lin Fan be reduced to ashes!

High above, Huo Wu slowly closed her eyes!

The fireball grew larger and larger in Lin Fan's pupils. Its searing waves of heat seemed capable of setting the blood in his veins ablaze!

The next moment, he finally moved!

Lin Fan reached out with both arms and grabbed straight for the enormous fireball!

"T-That... How is that possible?!"

More than ten seconds passed, yet there was still no explosion from the fireball hitting the ground. Everyone's gaze was fixed on the Soul Fighting Arena, and then a collective gasp swept through the crowd!

Their eyes widened, their jaws nearly hitting the floor, their faces filled with disbelief!

On the VIP platform, Emperor Xue Ye, Ning Fengzhi, and Huyan Zhen all stood up, their expressions as if they had seen a ghost!

Lin Fan was holding the fireball aloft with both arms, keeping it from descending even a fraction!

Looking closely, they saw that Lin Fan's hands had transformed into a pair of dragon claws!

"Break!"

As Lin Fan's roar rang out, his dragon claws plunged into the enormous fireball. Then, with a sudden burst of strength, he tore it apart!

Boom!

A terrifying explosion rang out. The attack, unleashed by Huo Wu using Blazing Dance Sun Flare and powered by all five members of Blazing Academy, was ripped apart by Lin Fan in a brutally forceful display, right before the eyes of the stunned crowd!

Countless tiny fireballs burst in midair like brilliant fireworks. Lin Fan stood amid the boundless sea of flames, letting them fall upon him without suffering the slightest harm!

In midair, Huo Wu's pretty face was pale. She stared intently at Lin Fan below, until she seemed utterly entranced!

He looked like a ruler who had emerged from the apocalypse, utterly unfazed even as Mount Tai collapsed before him, wielding the absolute power to control everything!

Huo Wu's heart raced. It was the feeling of being conquered!

Whoosh!

As the flames exploded, a ring of intensely scorching air swept across the arena. The four already-weakened members of Blazing Academy were sent flying straight off the stage!

Huo Wu, still in midair, also lost her balance. Like a tiny boat caught in a raging storm, she finally could not hold on any longer and plunged toward the ground!

Watching her drift down like a butterfly, Lin Fan didn't hesitate for a moment. He pushed off the ground, sprang into the air, and caught Huo Wu securely in his arms!

The entire Soul Fighting Arena fell into complete silence. Every gaze was fixed on Lin Fan!

"T-That... Is that kid even human?!"

It took a long while for the crowd to recover. They swallowed hard; if they hadn't felt the scorching heat still hanging in the air, they would have thought they were dreaming!

Tearing apart a Soul Skill attack comparable to a Soul Emperor's with nothing but physical strength—could a human really do that?

"This Soul Fighting match... goes to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy Second Team!"

The host announced the result with a stammer.

"Are you all right?"

Lin Fan paid no attention to anything around him. He looked at Huo Wu in his arms and asked.

"I... I don't need you to worry about me!"

A flush crept over her pale cheeks. As if waking from a dream, Huo Wu broke free from Lin Fan's arms and ran out of the arena!

"I didn't know she could get embarrassed..."

Lin Fan rubbed his nose and muttered.

"Good! Good! To think my Heaven Dou Empire could produce such an outstanding young Soul Master!"

On the VIP platform, Emperor Xue Ye burst into hearty laughter, his spirits soaring!

"Congratulations, Your Majesty. It seems that in this year's Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament, we'll have a chance to compete with Spirit Hall for the championship!"

Ning Fengzhi rose to his feet and spoke. His expression was complicated, and the shock still lingered on his face!

Even though he had been mentally prepared, Lin Fan's performance had still surpassed his expectations!

Now Ning Fengzhi was starting to worry that Lin Fan really might win the championship. According to their agreement, he would then be unable to stop Ning Rongrong from dating him!

Chapter 51: The Simp Feng Xiaotian!

"That brat's strength and cultivation talent are exceptional, but they're nothing compared to his talent for flirting with women!"

Ning Fengzhi sighed helplessly. He hadn't expected Lin Fan to hit on girls even during a Soul Fighting match!

"Should I loosen the restrictions and let Rongrong start dating him sooner? Otherwise, there'll only be more and more women around that brat, and Rongrong won't even make the cut..."

If Lin Fan knew what his future father-in-law was thinking, he would probably have been so shocked his jaw would drop!

After the Soul Fighting match, Lin Fan returned to the hotel arranged for them by the Heaven Dou Imperial Family.

"Brother Lin Fan, that match was so boring!"

"Exactly! You got to hog the spotlight all to yourself!"

Inside the room, Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing couldn't help grumbling!

"Our opponents are getting stronger and stronger. I was just afraid you two might get hurt!"

Lin Fan put his arms around Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing as he explained.

"Hmph, afraid we'd get hurt? I think you were afraid we'd interrupt you while you were hitting on girls!"

Zhu Zhuqing knocked Lin Fan's hand away and snorted.

"Uh... wouldn't it be boring with just the two of you? I'll find you some more sisters, then we won't be one short for mahjong!"

Faced with Lin Fan's shameless excuse, Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing couldn't be bothered to say more. They had actually already tacitly accepted it.

Knock, knock, knock!

As the three were talking, a knock came from outside.

"Someone took advantage of a certain person this afternoon, and now she's come looking for him!"

Xiao Wu looked at Lin Fan with a mischievous grin and raised her eyebrows toward the door.

Lin Fan said nothing. When he opened the door, the figure outside was indeed Huo Wu.

"Come with me."

After dropping those words, Huo Wu walked outside and stopped in an open area by the hotel.

"Are you feeling all right?"

Looking at Huo Wu, whose face was still somewhat pale, Lin Fan asked with concern.

"I lost, so I'll honor my promise. Kill me or do whatever you want!"

Huo Wu didn't answer Lin Fan's question. After speaking, she slowly closed her eyes, looking ready to let him do as he pleased!

Lin Fan walked up to her. He watched her eyelashes tremble slightly with nervousness and her chest rise and fall with her quick breathing. Shaking his head faintly, he took out a pill and put it straight into Huo Wu's mouth.

"Y-What did you make me swallow?!"

Startled, Huo Wu hurriedly opened her eyes and clutched at her throat, but it was already too late. With Lin Fan's Soul Power guiding it, the pill had already gone down!

Whoosh!

Just then, a sharp rush of wind sounded, like the air itself had been cleaved apart!

Without even turning around, Lin Fan raised his right hand, which had transformed into a dragon claw, and snatched at the air!

Crack!

The sharp wind blade was crushed into countless fragments, which scattered with a gust of wind!

A young man appeared beside Huo Wu!

"Hand over the antidote!"

The young man was tall and slender, with handsome features. He wore a blue outfit embroidered with silver thread—the uniform of Godwind Academy!

He glared fiercely at Lin Fan and shouted!

"Feng Xiaotian, my business is none of yours!"

Before Lin Fan could say anything, Huo Wu spoke up!

Heh heh, so this was that simp, Feng Xiaotian?

After learning who he was, Lin Fan grinned and looked him up and down!

In the original story, this guy had been a fairly talented Soul Master, with Innate Full Soul Power and a Self-Created Soul Skill. He could be considered a genius!

Unfortunately, he was Huo Wu's simp!

"Lin Fan, hand over the antidote now, or don't blame me for what happens!"

After Huo Wu rebuked him, Feng Xiaotian wasn't the slightest bit angry. He was clearly used to it. Instead, he fixed his gaze on Lin Fan as a powerful surge of Soul Power rippled from his body!

"Heh, I'm not handing over the antidote. What are you going to do about it?"

Lin Fan couldn't help laughing when Feng Xiaotian tried to threaten him!

Even Tang San, with the protagonist's halo, had been tormented by him until he wished he were dead. A mere Feng Xiaotian was nothing!

"Fine! Do you really think you're invincible? I'll teach you a lesson today!"

Feng Xiaotian laughed in anger and was about to attack Lin Fan!

"This is between Lin Fan and me. It's none of your business!"

"Huo Wu, I..."

"Shut up! If you don't get lost, never come see me again!"

Faced with Huo Wu's fury, Feng Xiaotian's face turned red with frustration. In the end, he could only sigh helplessly and leave.

"Lin Fan, thank you..."

Huo Wu walked up to Lin Fan and spoke softly. Her gentle tone stood in stark contrast to the way she had spoken to Feng Xiaotian moments ago.

At first, when the pill went down, she had thought Lin Fan had given her poison—or an aphrodisiac!

But then she felt a warm current flowing through her body. Her depleted energy and spirit were replenished, and the pallor in her cheeks faded somewhat!
