Low Profile? My Strength Won't Allow It!

Time quickly arrived at the second night.

The night curtain of Heaven Dou City hung low, and the bright lights had just been lit.

After finishing dinner, Ye Han and Demon Subduing Douluo walked side by side on the street leading to the Heaven Dou Great Soul Arena.

The evening breeze brushed past, bringing with it the hustle and bustle of the market and the aroma of delicious food.

The lively crowd surged like a tide toward that massive circular building.

"Kid, you shouldn't have a sweetheart yet, right?"

Ye Han was taken aback by the sudden question from Demon Subduing Douluo.

"No, why do you ask?"

Demon Subduing Douluo chuckled and reached out to pat Ye Han on the shoulder.

"You're a peerless genius, and an ordinary person isn't worthy of you. My friend's granddaughter happens to be a peerless genius too; you two are a perfect match. Although she's a few years older than you, it's inevitable that you'll both become Title Douluo in the future, so a few years' age gap is nothing at all."

Ye Han understood in his heart.

He had long guessed that Demon Subduing Douluo had gone to see Qian Renxue last night.

The person Demon Subduing Douluo spoke of was naturally Qian Renxue.

Therefore, he intentionally said:

"Alright, then why don't you arrange for us to meet?"

Demon Subduing Douluo shook his head and smiled somewhat awkwardly.

"Her identity is a bit special. When the time is right, I will naturally arrange for you to meet."

Ye Han didn't press the issue and shifted the topic.

"Fine, let's not dwell on that for now; let's talk about some serious business."

"What serious business?"

"Tonight is my first time soul fighting at the Heaven Dou Great Soul Arena. Logically speaking, the arena should offer higher odds for a newcomer like me. If you bet on me to win, all our food, drink, and lodging in Heaven Dou City will be covered."

Demon Subduing Douluo was stunned for a moment, then grinned.

"Heh, you kid, you really know how to live. Fine, I'll bet on you to win."

"Don't worry, I'm guaranteed to win."

As the two chatted and laughed, the Heaven Dou Great Soul Arena was already right before their eyes.

This building was magnificent, appearing like a steel behemoth dormant in the night.

In the square in front of the gate, the crowd was like a weave, all surging toward the entrance.

Ye Han and Demon Subduing Douluo entered the Soul Arena and went straight to the front desk to register for tonight's one-on-one soul fight.

He filled out the information and had his bone age and soul power tested.

His soul power had reached Level Forty-Eight, but when testing his soul power, he intentionally restrained it, stabilizing it at just over Level Forty.

Fifteen years old and just over Level Forty—that was already quite astonishing.

According to the rules of the Soul Arena, regardless of their level, newcomers could only accumulate points in the sub-arenas; they could only enter the higher-spec central arena after reaching a certain rank.

However, even in the sub-arenas, Soul Ancestor-level contestants were not common, so the rewards were naturally much more generous.

The most common contestants in the Soul Arena were two-ring Soul Grandmasters and three-ring Soul Elders, who were mostly there for experience.

Most four-ring Soul Ancestor-level contestants were specially invited by the arena to boost popularity.

Ye Han paid the ten Gold Spirit Coin registration fee; if he won the soul fight tonight, he would receive a reward of one hundred Gold Spirit Coins.

"Respected Soul Master, your registration information has been recorded. Tonight, you are in the Sixth Sub Soul Arena for a one-on-one Soul Ancestor-level soul fight."

Ye Han casually took the Iron Soul Badge.

"Let me ask, does your arena have one-on-two soul fight sessions?"

"One-on-two?"

The receptionist smiled and shook her head.

"I understand your idea. If you have enough confidence, you can bring a weaker teammate to participate in a two-on-two soul fight."

"Alright, I understand."

Ye Han went to the rest area on the side of the hall and waited with Demon Subduing Douluo.

Soon, a new piece of information scrolled across the soul guidance screen in the center of the hall:

[Sixth Sub Soul Arena · One-on-One]

[Ye Han (Iron Soul Badge · Four-Ring Battle Soul Ancestor) VS Liu Meng (Iron Soul Badge · Four-Ring Battle Soul Ancestor)]

[Odds for Ye Han to win: 10 to 16]

[Odds for Liu Meng to win: 10 to 13]

Demon Subduing Douluo looked up and grinned.

"Ten to sixteen? Who are they looking down on! Then I'll start by earning six thousand."

Demon Subduing Douluo went to the front desk, bet ten thousand Gold Spirit Coins on Ye Han to win, and incidentally bought a ticket for a seat near the front.

Afterward, the two went their separate ways.

Demon Subduing Douluo went to the spectator stands of the Sixth Sub Soul Arena.

Ye Han went to the Soul Master rest area.

Qian Renxue, disguised and accompanied by two experts, arrived at the Soul Arena.

After checking Ye Han's information, she went straight to the spectator area of the Sixth Sub Soul Arena.

Inside the Sixth Sub Soul Arena, the circular ring was shrouded by a soul guidance barrier, and quite a few spectators were already seated in the surrounding stands.

Ye Han stepped into the Soul Master rest area and looked at the ring through the huge floor-to-ceiling window, his gaze as calm as water.

A Soul Ancestor-level one-on-one soul fight held no challenge for him at all.

With his current strength, even without releasing his Spirit Rings, he could easily crush any opponent of the same level.

He needed more severe challenges to make the name of the Sky-Piercing Spear resound across the continent.

He wanted to create an undefeated myth in this arena, forcing the arena to change its rules for him, allowing him to take on two, or even three or four at once.

There was no helping it; his strength wouldn't allow him to keep a low profile.

He had to constantly break through himself amidst more severe challenges.

Qian Renxue arrived at an inconspicuous corner of the spectator stands and sat down, looking forward to Ye Han taking the stage.

Soon, the soul fight began.

In the first few soul fights, the Soul Masters who appeared were all two-ring Soul Grandmasters or three-ring Soul Elders.

The audience's interest was not very high, and the atmosphere was not enthusiastic enough.

"Next, there will be a heavyweight duel: four-ring Battle Soul Ancestor Ye Han versus four-ring Battle Soul Ancestor Liu Meng! Will both contestants please prepare to take the stage!"

As soon as the host finished speaking, the spectator stands became restless and erupted into enthusiastic cheers.

Finally, a significant duel had arrived.

Qian Renxue also became serious, her gaze involuntarily cast toward the exit of the Soul Master tunnel, wanting to see what the Ye Han that Demon Subduing Douluo spoke of actually looked like.

Hearing the host's voice, Ye Han stood up and walked toward the Soul Master tunnel.

A lean man walked in front of him.

He guessed that this must be his opponent for the night, Liu Meng; he wondered what Liu Meng's Martial Soul was.

Liu Meng and Ye Han walked out of the Soul Master tunnel one after the other and entered the Soul Arena.

The two stepped onto the ring one after the other.

The spotlight shone on them.

Only then did the audience see their appearance clearly.

Liu Meng was lean, but he didn't look thin; the lines of his shoulders and back were outlined by his tight-fitting combat suit, revealing a sturdy silhouette.

He had a square, broad face, high brow bones, and sharp eyes. As soon as he got on stage, he glanced at Ye Han opposite him, his mouth curling with a hint of disdain.

Judging by his appearance, he should be an agility-attack system Soul Master.

Ye Han stood opposite Liu Meng, his posture upright and his expression indifferent.

His black hair was draped casually over his shoulders, and his features were handsome with a touch of the refined elegance unique to a youth.

He didn't deliberately strike a pose; he just stood there casually, yet he gave people a feeling that he could not be underestimated.
