Da Ming and Er Ming Protect Xiao Wu as She Takes on the Star Official Challenge; Tang Hao and Tang San Hurry Along with Old Jack

"Huo Wu, I already have two Martial Souls."

"And my Innate Soul Power is level ten."

"So I want to give this Aptitude Fruit to you."

"We'll be together forever."

"We'll grow stronger together, and neither of us will be left behind."

"Quick, eat this Aptitude Fruit."

In an instant, everyone who had gathered around was left stunned.

They looked at Huo Wu enviously.

This was an Aptitude Fruit with a B+ rating.

The improvement it could bring after being eaten was beyond imagining.

No one could resist such a temptation.

Huo Wu looked at the red fruit being offered to her.

She looked at her boyfriend's tender gaze.

Her eyes grew moist, and she said gratefully:

"Feng Xiaotian, thank you!"

"I definitely won't let you down!"

Huo Wu wiped the tears from the corner of her eye under Feng Xiaotian's encouraging gaze.

Trembling, she reached out and took the Aptitude Fruit.

She opened her little mouth... and took a small bite.

Suddenly, a terrifying aura erupted from Huo Wu.

Her whole body shone with sacred golden light as she shot into the sky.

She transformed into a towering pillar of light.

Countless people present were stunned.

They saw spiritual energy slowly gathering around Huo Wu.

Her body was like a suction cup.

She could absorb spiritual energy and cultivate automatically.

It seemed the heavens and earth sensed something.

At that moment, the wind howled and thunder dragons roared.

Everything became extremely unsettled.

The hundred thousand Soul Masters were at a loss, with no idea what was happening.

Huo Wu had clearly eaten an Aptitude Fruit.

Why had it caused a celestial phenomenon that made their hearts tremble?

Only Xue Qinghe stared wide-eyed.

Her gaze was fixed on Huo Wu amid the golden light.

She could clearly sense that the other girl's Innate Soul Power, which had been only level eight, had—

in the instant she ate the Aptitude Fruit—

surged past her own... to level thirty.

Innate Soul Power, level thirty.

One had to know that Xue Qinghe... or, more accurately, Qian Renxue—

had awakened the Angel Clan's most powerful divine-grade Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul.

She had been born with level twenty Innate Full Soul Power.

This meant that even though she stayed in the Heaven Dou Empire disguised as the Crown Prince,

and had little time to cultivate each day,

her Soul Power still grew far faster than that of her peers.

Now that Huo Wu's Innate Soul Power had surged to level thirty after eating the Aptitude Fruit,

Qian Renxue couldn't imagine how terrifying her cultivation speed would be in the future.

Even after wasting so many years,

she could still rise with ease and reach the peak...

On the arena, Lin Feng slowly stood up.

He stretched his arms.

When he opened his palm, three Lucky Star Feathers appeared, radiating sacred golden light.

Three names took shape on them:

Xiao Wu, Jack, Qin Ming.

"Hm? Among the three people who received Lucky Star Feathers this time,"

"one of them is Xiao Wu?"

"She should be in the Mixed Area now."

"Protected by the Titan Giant Ape and the Sky Azure Bull Python, right?"

"Jack? Old Jack, the village chief of Holy Soul Village."

"I didn't expect him to be chosen by a Lucky Star Feather."

"I wonder what kind of reward Old Jack will unlock."

"And the last one is Qin Ming from Shrek Academy."

Lin Feng had some impression of this fellow.

The system had refreshed the new challenge location: Dongyu Soul Hunting Forest in the Star Luo Empire.

He activated the power of the formation and vanished from the inner area along with the entire arena...

Star Dou Great Forest, inner area.

The towering pillar of light, which had lasted for more than ten minutes, finally disappeared.

The howling wind and lightning came to a stop.

Everything returned to normal.

Feng Xiaotian stepped forward, took Huo Wu's hand, and asked excitedly,

"Huo Wu, how do you feel now?"

Huo Wu threw herself into his arms and said joyfully:

"Feng Xiaotian, my Innate Soul Power went from level eight!"

"It rose to level thirty!"

Her words left Ning Fengzhi,

Chen Xin, Dragon Duke, Meng Yiran, and the others utterly shocked.

Everyone knew that the highest Innate Soul Power on the continent was level ten.

Who would've thought that after Huo Wu ate the Aptitude Fruit, her Innate Soul Power would rise to level thirty?

How terrifying.

Meng Yiran looked at her close friend and said,

"Huo Wu, congratulations!"

"Your Innate Soul Power rose to level thirty!"

"And Feng Xiaotian has Twin Martial Souls!"

"You two really are a match made in heaven!"

Huo Wu stepped away from Feng Xiaotian's embrace.

She hugged Meng Yiran and said,

"Yiran, look at how envious you are!"

"I'm sure you'll meet your own Prince Charming before long!"

The two girls playfully tussled.

Meng Yiran's cheeks flushed. She rolled her eyes at her friend and said,

"Huo Wu, you're talking nonsense. I'm not envious..."

Nearby, Dragon Duke and Snake Granny sized up Feng Xiaotian.

They felt deeply regretful.

Such a devoted, talented man—

what a pity he couldn't become their grandson-in-law.

Meng Yiran was no longer young, and the two elders were terribly worried about her future.

Xue Qinghe stepped forward with a smile and said,

"Huo Wu, Feng Xiaotian!"

"You're both geniuses of the empire!"

"When I return, I'll report everything to my father!"

"The Blazing Fire Academy and Godwind Academy you attend"

"will receive rewards and commendations!"

Huo Wu and Feng Xiaotian exchanged a smile.

They hurriedly bowed and said, "Thank you, Your Highness, the Crown Prince!"

Just then, Ning Fengzhi leaned on his Gem Cane and said with a faint smile,

"Your Highness, the Senior and the arena have both left."

"Today's Star Official Challenge has also finished distributing its rewards."

"We should set off back to Heaven Dou City"

"and report to His Majesty."

Xue Qinghe looked toward the place where the arena had vanished.

He smiled bitterly and said,

"The Senior really pays no heed to worldly affairs."

"He likes his peace and quiet."

"He's always slipping away without a word."

Then he nodded to Huo Wu, Feng Xiaotian,

Dragon Duke, Snake Granny, Meng Yiran, and the others.

He turned and left with Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin.

The people nearby gradually dispersed.
