Frost Phoenix Duo!

Lin Yichen expressed intense...

Fondness!

That resonant sensation made him unable to stop.

Likewise, Shui Bing'er across from him was thrilled by it.

However,

Lin Yichen felt that putting on the ring seemed to be taking a little too long.

And with every slight advance, Shui Bing'er's fingers brushed against the back of Lin Yichen's hand.

Until it was completely on.

She lowered her head, not daring to look at him.

Shui Bing'er didn't seem too resistant to him?

Lin Yichen had no resistance to ice-type goddesses.

Perhaps it was because of their martial soul attributes.

But since she didn't reject him, then don't blame me for being such a dashing rogue!

"Done putting it on? Then why are your fingers still caressing me?"

Shui Bing'er instinctively tried to pull her hand back, but Lin Yichen suddenly grabbed it.

Their fingers interlocked.

Shui Bing'er even felt as though her heart was about to leap out of her chest.

"Ahem, I see that your inner energy is a little unstable. I'll help you adjust it."

With such a lofty excuse, Shui Bing'er had no choice but to believe him.

She really wanted to refuse!

She wanted to say that this was improper!

Unfortunately, her hand would not obey her.

She gripped him even tighter than he gripped her.

Starting with this belt, the prices below were no longer something Lin Yichen could accept.

Even someone as wealthy as Shui Bing'er had to weigh them carefully.

"All right, distinguished guests! This morning's auction has come to an end! See you tonight!"

As soon as the host finished speaking, he bowed, and a large crowd departed in a grand procession.

Shui Bing'er also refused to let go of Lin Yichen's hand. She led him straight out of the venue and ran backstage.

"Hey, shouldn't you let go of my hand now?"

Shui Bing'er dragged Lin Yichen along at a run, leaving them both stumbling.

Only when she heard those words did Shui Bing'er snap out of it and let go.

"Esteemed guests, it seems you came together. Guest Number Six, are you giving this belt to your boyfriend?"

The host smiled warmly, naturally assuming that Shui Bing'er and Lin Yichen were a couple.

After all, anyone who saw their intimate behavior would let their imagination run wild.

"No, no! We're friends!"

Shui Bing'er waved her hands frantically and hurried to explain, her eyes full of evasion and panic.

"Oh? Then you must have only gotten together recently. Don't be shy. And you, young man, making your girlfriend buy you gifts? Aren't you embarrassed?"

The host could not help covering his mouth and laughing.

Shui Bing'er wanted nothing more than to bury herself alive!

This was too embarrassing!

"All right, all right, I won't tease you two anymore. This is the Cold Jade Belt storage soul tool. Here you go."

"By the way, the Rose Hotel is less than three kilometers east of the Soto City Auction House. It's perfect for you two~"

After saying that, the host cheerfully went to receive other distinguished guests.

Standing beside Shui Bing'er, Lin Yichen could feel the heat radiating from her like a steamer.

And she was an ice-type soul master, too.

"Let's go. Don't overthink it."

Shui Bing'er nodded shyly and took Lin Yichen's hand as they left.

"You're so shy, so why are you still holding my hand?"

"Shut up! They already said we looked like a couple, so we're just putting on an act..."

Good women always said the opposite of what they meant.

It was already two in the afternoon when they came out. The sun hung high in the sky, dazzlingly bright.

"Shui Bing'er, are you heading back to Heavenly Water Academy next?"

Since no one was teasing them now, Shui Bing'er finally raised her head.

Lin Yichen saw that the blush on her face extended all the way to the base of her neck.

"I don't have much money left either. I want to fight in the Soul Arena and earn some."

Lin Yichen immediately became interested when he heard that!

After all, he was planning to fight in the Soul Arena next, too!

Having company was naturally more interesting than going alone.

"What a coincidence. I was planning to do the same. Shall we go together?"

"Mm..."

The figures of the young man and woman gradually vanished at the end of the street...

"Little Shui, why are you still holding my hand?"

"Shut up! Who gave you permission to call me Little Shui?"

"You look younger than me."

"Even so... Little Shui... do whatever you want..."

Inside the Soto Great Soul Arena, Xiao Rou was pouring fruit juice for the guests.

But at this moment, she held her head higher and looked more confident than yesterday.

She had even learned to resist the wandering hands of fat customers.

Suddenly, she caught a special scent!

It was him!

"Young master!"

Lin Yichen had just arrived at the Great Soul Arena with Shui Bing'er when he heard a sweet, delicate voice.

Then something crashed into him.

Even his intertwined hand with Shui Bing'er was knocked apart.

Lin Yichen looked down and saw Xiao Rou in his arms.

"Xiao Rou, don't do this."

"Who are you?!"

Shui Bing'er suddenly flared up, and countless ice fragments instantly condensed around her.

Xiao Rou realized that there was someone else beside Lin Yichen. Then she remembered that a gentle young master like Lin Yichen surely would not lack beautiful companions.

She immediately understood that she had overstepped.

She quickly stepped back and returned to her usual waitress demeanor.

"All right, Xiao Rou. Go prepare two glasses of fruit juice for me."

"Yes, Young Master!"

Xiao Rou bowed and ran off.

She looked genuinely happy.

"Why do you still associate with such shady people?"

Shui Bing'er was already questioning him, her expression clearly displeased.

"She's a good person. We should treat commoners well. Besides, I'm a commoner too."

Shui Bing'er was visibly surprised. Someone like Lin Yichen was a commoner?

Then his clothes...

"I picked up some white cloth and sewed these clothes myself. I don't know which noble casually threw away such fine fabric."

Lin Yichen showed unusual anger as he said this.

As though he had truly picked up these clothes.

But this tactic was clearly very effective on Shui Bing'er.

It immediately aroused her sympathy. She had truly thought that Lin Yichen simply had not brought enough money on this trip!

But another question arose at this moment.

"Then how can a commoner like you have over four thousand gold soul coins?"

"I fought one Soul Arena match yesterday."

"Just one?"

Shui Bing'er was even more confused. Did one Soul Arena match earn nearly five thousand gold soul coins?

"No, someone invested in me and made a fortune, so they gave me some spare change."

"Spare change from five thousand gold soul coins? Then you're doing quite well."

"Come on, come on. I've already come up with an excellent plan. We can only earn more today."

Shui Bing'er was doubtful, but out of absolute trust in Lin Yichen and the mutual attraction of their martial souls, she followed him as if possessed.

She followed him as if possessed.

Lin Yichen and Shui Bing'er arrived at the two-versus-two registration desk and casually picked out two incredibly ugly masks to put on.

They were even the two ugliest ones there.

Shui Bing'er clearly expressed her dissatisfaction, but according to Lin Yichen, this was called confusing the enemy, making them underestimate them so they could win in a single blow.

The staff at the registration desk did not waste words.

"Your two codenames. I'll search the records database."

"Guanghan."

"Ice Phoenix."

"Good names!" the two said in unison.

"Then our two-versus-two Soul Arena team name will be... Frost Phoenix Duo!"
