Time passed.
One day, on the Soul Arena.
"Dugu Feng, you don't respect the senior or the class rules! Today, my younger brother Feng Li and I, Feng Ling, represent the Entire Academy in challenging you. We'll let you know that our Heaven Dou Royal Junior Academy has rules!"
Feng Ling stood proudly, a Blue Light Sword continuously circling his body.
Feng Li was the same beside him.
Three months had passed, and their Sword Control Technique had improved greatly. Three months ago, they still couldn't look this carefree and dashing.
Their flashy appearance attracted countless girls below, whose eyes sparkled.
Behind them stood Ning Rongrong, with a Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda floating before her and seven-colored radiance surrounding her. She looked like a fairy, her face filled with undisguised pride as she stared fixedly at Dugu Feng.
"Are there class rules? Teacher Ge never told me!" Dugu Feng asked in confusion.
What class rules? He had been enrolled for three months, but no one had ever told him about them.
"The boss's words are the class rules. You don't even know that? Today, we definitely have to teach you a lesson!" Feng Li looked every inch the bootlicker.
Dugu Feng was speechless. The two of you have taken bootlicking to another level. Aren't you ashamed to do this in front of everyone?
Ning Rongrong looked smug, seemingly enjoying herself.
"A challenge is fine, but last time, we said there would be something added to the stakes. Here, these are my requirements." Dugu Feng leisurely took out a sheet of paper.
He extended his right hand. After Soul Power entered the paper, it became perfectly straight and flew toward the three people opposite him.
Dugu Feng's move immediately stunned them.
Ning Rongrong had an ominous feeling. After steadying her emotions, she looked over Dugu Feng's demands.
"One million Gold Soul Coins?"
"Eight Treasures Auspicious Soft Armor crafted by Lou Gao, the Grandmaster Craftsman?"
"Ten Thousand Year Whale Blubber?"
"Ten Ten-Thousand-Year Serpent Soul Beast gallbladders?"
Ning Rongrong's eyes widened more and more.
Feng Ling and Feng Li looked over as well, and their faces instantly darkened.
"Dugu Feng, has your Dugu Family gone mad from poverty? How dare you make such an outrageous demand here?
"I think you're just trying to conceal the fact that you want the Ten Thousand Year Whale Blubber, you shameless scoundrel!" Ning Rongrong shouted angrily.
The surroundings immediately erupted in an uproar.
Even Ten Thousand Year Whale Blubber had been brought up. Everyone's gazes toward Dugu Feng became strange.
Brother, that's too fierce. Can your body withstand it?
"How can a duel between nobles have no stakes? Are you so lacking in confidence because you think you're certain to lose?
"If you win, why would you need to pay any of this?!
"Besides, all these things combined are worth at most ten million Gold Soul Coins. Is that a lot?"
Dugu Feng wasn't angry at all. Instead, his words held a hint of surprise and mockery.
Although the gallbladders of Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts and the Eight Treasures Auspicious Soft Armor were relatively rare, they weren't impossible to obtain.
A glint flashed through Ning Rongrong's eyes. She didn't care about these things.
Of the world's wealth, her Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect possessed one share out of eight.
What did ten million Gold Soul Coins amount to?
What she was thinking about was how Dugu Feng was so confident that he must have some trump card. Rationally speaking, and for the sake of caution, they shouldn't compete this time.
But emotionally, she couldn't accept that.
It was like a gambler who knew that continuing to gamble would result in defeat, yet still gambled in anticipation of that tiny possibility of victory.
"Using ten million Gold Soul Coins to test Dugu Feng's strength is worth it!" Ning Rongrong hardened her heart and said, "We'll compete. I refuse to believe that you could become that strong in just three months!"
When Feng Ling and Feng Li saw that their boss had decided, their gazes turned sharp. This time, they absolutely couldn't lose again.
"Feng Li, Martial Soul Wind Sword, Level Twelve First Ring Tool Soul Master!"
"Feng Ling, Martial Soul Wind Sword, Level Twelve First Ring Tool Soul Master. Take this sword!"
"Ning Rongrong, Martial Soul Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, Level Thirteen First Ring Tool Soul Master!"
"Dugu Feng, Dugu Feng, Martial Soul Jade Phosphor Serpent, Level Fourteen First Ring Battle Soul Master!"
The four exchanged greetings on the Soul Arena.
Their Soul Power Levels had all risen by one level in unison.
"Damn it, he's improved again!" Ning Rongrong cursed inwardly.
In the next moment, a Light Sword had already appeared before her. Ning Rongrong leaped up and stood atop it.
Carried by the Light Sword, her entire body rose into the air above the Soul Arena.
"Hmph, Seven Treasures Have Names—First is Strength!" Two streaks of colored light descended.
A Circular Sword Array formed by sixteen Light Swords also hovered before her. Feng Ling and Feng Li stood back-to-back at its center.
This was their greatest source of confidence: Sword Control Flight.
As long as they flew into the air, they could simply wear down Dugu Feng's Soul Power.
"Sword Control Flight."
The area below the Soul Arena was already in an uproar.
No one knew how powerful it was, but it was definitely cool!
Moreover, it looked incredibly imposing.
"Dugu Feng, even if you release Poison Fog that covers the entire arena this time, you still won't be able to hurt us!" Ning Rongrong cried out sweetly.
She had been waiting for this moment for three months.
It was all for the sake of Showing Off. She didn't know that term, but the feeling was the same.
She wanted to shock Dugu Feng and make him beg for mercy.
Whenever she recalled Dugu Feng's Calm and Unruffled appearance last time, Ning Rongrong became furious.
This time, I'll make you Cry Mother Cry Father. You're only a six-year-old Little Kid, so why are you pretending to be so profound?
Ning Rongrong was filled with resentment.
Feng Ling and Feng Li enjoyed the admiring and astonished gazes from below. They didn't even attack Dugu Feng immediately.
They wanted to see Dugu Feng's Stunned, shocked, and terrified expression.
Dugu Feng looked at the three people in the sky, his expression calm.
Indeed, if his Jade Phosphor Purple Poison were used in the First Stage, it really couldn't reach them.
Ning Rongrong's plan had to be admitted as quite clever.
But he had also progressed over the past three months. His use of the Jade Phosphor Purple Poison had already entered the Second Stage.
"If you don't attack, I'm going to attack!"
The three of them were actually enjoying the praise and exclamations from below the Soul Arena.
Dugu Feng was speechless. If I don't wipe those smug looks off your faces, I'll be doing you a disservice.
A Yellow Soul Ring rose as he entered Martial Soul Possession.
Immediately afterward, Dugu Feng raised both hands.
The Jade Phosphor Purple Poison within his body rapidly circulated through his Meridians toward his hands before Shooting Out.
Purple Rays as Fine as Hair appeared.
They shot toward the Sword Formation.
There were a full twelve rays. The Six Meridian Divine Sword had six paths.
He had released them with both hands, creating twelve rays, which Dugu Feng named Jade Phosphor Twelve Fingers.
Dugu Feng was excited. This was his first time using them in battle.
The Jade Phosphor Twelve Fingers released through poison were absolutely astonishing in Attack Power.
"A Self-Created Soul Skill?" Feng Ling and Feng Li exclaimed in shock.
Their first reaction was that it was a Self-Created Soul Skill. Otherwise, how could poison be released in such a manner?
But they had no time to think further.
The Twelve Light Swords within the Sword Formation trembled, broke free of the formation, and shot downward.
They met Dugu Feng's Jade Phosphor Purple Poison in the sky.
But the instant they collided, the two were shocked.
The Fine Rays as Fine as Hair possessed tremendous force.
The Light Swords they had conjured with their Soul Skills were instantly shattered.
Then the two of them saw it.
Another Twelve Rays shot into the sky.
"Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang!!"
The Feng Brothers became Flustered. They used all their strength to Make Up the Twelve Light Swords and sent them up to block the attack.
Blue and Purple Radiance collided in the sky, becoming Bizarre and Fantastic beneath the sunlight.
Exceptionally dazzling.
This exchange drew waves of cries from below. Nearly the Entire Academy had gathered.
