Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo Arrive Together

After Ning Rongrong arrived, Ye Xuan and the others visited the Great Spirit Arena less frequently.

After all, for them, the most important task at the moment was practicing their martial soul fusion skill.

While training, they clearly felt their spirit power growing slowly, as if they were cultivating even while they practiced.

And so, the days passed one by one.

Under Ye Xuan's guidance, a month went by, and it was noon on this particular day.

The excited voices of Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing rang out in the courtyard.

"We did it! We finally succeeded!"

Only at this moment of success, feeling the immense power of their martial soul fusion skill, could they truly understand how difficult the cultivation had been.

Naturally, their joy was all the greater for it.

Ye Xuan stepped outside, and the two girls immediately trotted up to him. "Brother Ye, we finally succeeded!"

"Mm, not bad. Starting tomorrow, head to the Great Spirit Arena and begin actual combat," Ye Xuan said.

"Understood."

In truth, even if Ye Xuan hadn't suggested it, they would have taken the initiative to head to the Great Spirit Arena to improve themselves through real battles.

Ye Xuan and his group rested for the day.

The next day.

They headed straight for the Great Spirit Arena.

Not long after they left, two people arrived at the main hall of Spirit Hall.

One of these two was Ghost Douluo, who had previously come to deliver books to Ye Xuan.

Beside Ghost Douluo was an enchanting man dressed in gold and purple finery.

This was Chrysanthemum Douluo, Yue Guan, who always acted in tandem with Ghost Douluo.

They went to Ye Xuan's residence first, but upon finding him absent, they set out to find Sading.

Once they located him, Ghost Douluo asked directly, "Sading, is Ye Xuan not here?"

"Reporting to the Elder, Young Master Ye has taken the two young ladies he is mentoring to the Great Spirit Arena," Sading replied.

"Two young ladies? Wasn't there only one before?" Ghost Douluo asked, puzzled.

"A month ago, he brought back another," Sading answered respectfully.

"Interesting. Let's go take a look." Ghost Douluo turned to say a word to Chrysanthemum Douluo, and the two departed immediately.

After exiting Spirit Hall, Chrysanthemum Douluo said gravely, "The person who came from the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect is Ning Fengzhi himself. I don't believe this is for the sake of a hundred-thousand-year spirit beast, but rather for something else."

"Whether they came for that or not is unimportant; what matters is that they are here. You know the strength of Sword Douluo—he might discover something. That is why we must invite Ye Xuan to Spirit Hall this time. Once there, Her Majesty the Pope can determine whether he is human or a spirit beast. If he is a spirit beast, he won't be able to escape the grasp of our Spirit Hall while in Spirit City," Ghost Douluo said.

They had been ordered to invite Ye Xuan back this time. With him here and now being watched by the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, who was to say he wouldn't be targeted by the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family or the Clear Sky Sect next?

Spirit Hall would certainly not allow such variables to arise.

"What about those two girls?" Chrysanthemum Douluo asked.

"Once we return to Spirit Hall, they will be dealt with by Her Majesty the Pope," Ghost Douluo said.

Great Spirit Arena.

Ye Xuan was currently watching a match between Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing.

The opponents they faced this time were two level-30 Great Spirit Masters, who held a complete advantage in spirit power.

Furthermore, their spirit rings were of standard configuration; their first rings were already over a hundred years old, not those white, ten-year rings.

These two were clever; upon realizing that Ning Rongrong was a support-type, they immediately launched a surprise attack on her.

Although they could have won without using their martial soul fusion skill, Ye Xuan wanted them to use combat as training to familiarize themselves with it, so the two girls activated the skill.

Under the influence of the fusion skill, the person who had ambushed Ning Rongrong was struck by a palm empowered by the skill and sent flying off the arena stage.

"To think they mastered it so quickly. It's a real pity that Young Master Ye doesn't work as a teacher with such instructional ability."

The speaker was none other than Flender.

Knowing that Ye Xuan and his group were coming today, they had all come to watch the match.

Seeing the martial soul fusion skill the two had unleashed, Flender wished he could drag Ye Xuan to Shrek Academy to teach.

Of course, he could only think this in his heart.

Setting aside whether Ye Xuan would be willing, even if he were, the presence of Yu Xiaogang meant they could never truly let Ye Xuan join Shrek Academy.

Though he admired Ye Xuan greatly, he wasn't about to abandon his brother of many years for his sake.

"Dean Flender, how has your training been lately?" Ye Xuan asked politely.

"It's passable for now, though it's a pity they can't engage in team competition drills," Flender said.

With Ye Xuan having taken Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong away, it was indeed difficult for the remaining group to participate in team matches.

"People must eventually go their separate ways," Ye Xuan said.

Ye Xuan did not actually care much about team training.

Not participating in the team competition would be troublesome for Shrek Academy, as they would be unable to enter the high-level Spirit Master tournament, but did that require Ye Xuan's concern?

Just then, Ye Xuan suddenly sensed two extremely powerful auras entering the Great Spirit Arena.

One of them was someone he recognized.

"Hmm? Ghost Douluo, then the other person must be Chrysanthemum Douluo." Ye Xuan frowned slightly; what were these two doing here?

Ye Xuan then looked toward Xiao Wu, who was not far away.

When Ghost Douluo had come here previously, the people from Shrek Academy were all in a small village outside the city, so Ghost Douluo naturally would not have sensed Xiao Wu's presence.

But if they were inside this Great Spirit Arena, at such close proximity, it would be impossible for them not to sense her.

After Ghost Douluo and Chrysanthemum Douluo entered the Great Spirit Arena, Chrysanthemum Douluo immediately said sharply, "Hmm, Old Ghost, there is the aura of a spirit beast. Could it be Ye Xuan?"

"Impossible. When I saw Ye Xuan before, I did not sense any spirit beast aura on him." Ghost Douluo shook his head, though he too sensed the spirit beast's aura at this moment.

He could be certain that this was definitely not Ye Xuan.

"In that case, we have an unexpected harvest? Let us hurry up there." Yue Guan was somewhat excited.

The aura of a spirit beast—surely no one would bring a spirit beast into this Great Spirit Arena.

If it had transformed into human form, then for them, this would be a monumental achievement.

If they could take it back, that went without saying.

With the two men's strength, they rushed toward the direction of Xiao Wu, naturally arriving in a matter of seconds.

They reached the upper floor and quickly locked onto Xiao Wu.

Upon seeing Xiao Wu, the two exchanged a glance, their hearts filled with joy.

This did not just look like a hundred-thousand-year spirit beast; it was also very weak.

When Xiao Wu discovered these two, her heart skipped a beat; these two clearly had ill intentions.

Especially the way they looked at her—it was far more ferocious than Sword Douluo had been, as if they were about to snatch her away the very next second.

Yue Guan stepped forward and said with a chuckle, "Little girl, why don't you come away with us? That way, your friends at least won't get hurt."
