Late at night, the streets were utterly quiet.

Inside the royal carriage, Ning Rongrong lay completely nestled in Gu Feng's arms.

When Gu Feng had said those words before the Crown Prince in the Crown Prince's Residence hall, Ning Rongrong had been utterly captivated.

Strong enough to protect the people he wanted to protect.

Ning Rongrong knew he had said that for her.

She raised her head to look at Gu Feng's profile, then burrowed deeper into his embrace.

"Brother Feng~"

A faint blush colored Ning Rongrong's face, and her tone brimmed with temptation.

"Hm? What's wrong?" Gu Feng lowered his head to look at Ning Rongrong in his arms, his brows drawing together.

Ning Rongrong reached out and slowly looped her arms around Gu Feng's neck. She whispered,

"Brother Feng, my father and my two grandfathers have both accepted you. So... how about you stay in my room tonight?"

Ning Rongrong's voice grew softer and softer. By the end, she had buried her face in Gu Feng's chest, her little face burning red.

She had never fallen for anyone in all her life. Only Gu Feng was so special.

As long as Gu Feng nodded now, she was willing to give him everything she had.

Yet Gu Feng raised a hand and flicked Ning Rongrong on the head.

"Ow!" Ning Rongrong whimpered in pain in Gu Feng's arms.

"Brother Feng, what was that for?!"

Gu Feng removed her hands from around his neck and gently held them in his palm.

"Rongrong, these are our golden years for cultivation. We can only devote our energy to training; we can't do that so early. At the very least, wait until we're eighteen!"

"You need to know that the earlier a Soul Master breaks through to become a Titled Douluo, the earlier their appearance becomes fixed."

"Don't you want to preserve your looks at their best age?"

Ning Rongrong froze. She had not known that.

But after thinking about it, Sword Grandpa was clearly so old, yet his skin was excellent without a single wrinkle.

Could it really be true?

Ning Rongrong immediately sat up straight. She patted her flushed cheeks and resolved to cultivate diligently and break through as soon as possible!

"Alright! Brother Feng, I'll meditate and cultivate twice as hard. Then, in the years to come, I'll always look the way I did when I was young for you!"

Seeing this, Gu Feng pulled Ning Rongrong into his arms and nodded in satisfaction.

Over the following days, Gu Feng and Ning Rongrong's lives became dull yet orderly.

Other than occasionally returning to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect during breaks, Gu Feng and Ning Rongrong spent nearly every day immersed in cultivation.

Ning Rongrong had been deeply provoked by Gu Feng's claim that the earlier one became a Titled Douluo, the earlier one's appearance would become fixed.

No woman wanted to grow old.

Thus, Ning Rongrong became even more diligent. Within the team, only Gu Feng worked harder than she did.

As for Yu Tianheng and the others from the Imperial Fighting Team, they were all stunned by Gu Feng and Ning Rongrong's suicidal training regimen.

No one wanted to fall behind.

So Yu Tianheng and the others also trained desperately, grinding with all their might!

During this period, Gu Feng and Ning Rongrong visited the Crown Prince's Residence once a week.

Not only did Xue Qinghe send them all kinds of precious medicinal herbs, but he also frequently visited Gu Feng and Ning Rongrong at Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

To the three education committee members of Heaven Dou Royal Academy, Gu Feng and Ning Rongrong were clearly members of the future Crown Prince's inner circle after he ascended the throne.

Gu Feng and Xue Qinghe's relationship also improved somewhat through these interactions.

Spring passed into autumn, and ten months slipped away unnoticed.

Gu Feng had also turned thirteen.

Within the high-pressure wind tunnel of the Mimicry Training Room, Gu Feng stood as firm as a rock, completely motionless.

Around him, fierce winds swirled, enveloping him like a tornado.

The violent tornado spun at high speed, forming a barrier. Ordinary attacks could not penetrate it at all.

This tornado was the inspiration Gu Feng had gained for manipulating the wind element through his third soul skill, Eye of the Storm.

Not only that, after ten months of cultivation, the Wind Release: Rasenshuriken Gu Feng had envisioned could now steadily take shape in his hand.

However, launching it was still difficult, because the problem of the Wind Release: Rasenshuriken rapidly expanding after leaving his hand remained unresolved.

Although the expanded Wind Release: Rasenshuriken had a greater attack range, its destructive power dropped significantly.

Gu Feng was naturally dissatisfied with that, though he was quite pleased with the power of wielding the Wind Release: Rasenshuriken in close combat.

Still, this move was one that injured the enemy for a thousand while costing himself eight hundred. Unless necessary, Gu Feng would not use it.

Over these ten months, Gu Feng had relied on the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's unlimited supply of high-quality Ten-Thousand-Year Whale Rubber, together with the talent improvements brought by the immortal herbs.

His Soul Power had directly risen from Level 43 to Peak Level 46, only one step away from Level 47.

Unfortunately, after consuming Whale Rubber for so long, Gu Feng had now developed complete resistance to it.

Unless he obtained Hundred-Thousand-Year Whale Rubber in the future, he would no longer be able to strengthen his physique and raise his Soul Power through Whale Rubber.

Even so, a thirteen-year-old Soul Ancestor with Peak Level 46 Soul Power was unique across the entirety of Douluo Continent.

Even Qian Renxue, who possessed innate Level 20 Soul Power in the original story, had delayed her Soul Power cultivation at Gu Feng's age because of her undercover plan.

Inside another Mimicry Training Room, Ning Rongrong slowly opened her beautiful eyes.

The Soul Power fluctuations around her were clearly at Level 42!

After absorbing the Lovesick Heartbreak Red and Aromatic Silk Beauty, Ning Rongrong's talent had also risen to an unimaginable level.

From her former Level 38 to her current Level 42.

For an auxiliary Soul Master, such progress was already extremely fast.

By then, Gu Feng was already waiting outside Ning Rongrong's Mimicry Training Room.

When Ning Rongrong came out, she happily leaped onto Gu Feng, wrapping her legs around him.

"Brother Feng! I'm Level 42!"

Gu Feng supported Ning Rongrong's little butt with one hand and lightly patted her perky backside with the other.

"Great job. Get down first."

After Ning Rongrong giggled and hopped down from Gu Feng, she hooked herself around his arm and leaned bonelessly against his side.

Gu Feng helplessly shook his head. This girl was becoming more and more clingy.

When the two arrived hand in hand at the Imperial Fighting Team's exclusive Soul Arena, Yu Tianheng, Dugu Yan, Shi Mo, Shi Mo, Yu Feng, Osler, and Ye Lingling had long since arrived.

Thanks to the physical transformation from the Nine-Grade Dragon Ganoderma, along with a thirty-thousand-year Left Arm Bone Dugu Bo had found for her, Dugu Yan's cultivation had now reached Level 43.

In ten months, with one Soul Bone and one Soul Ring, her Soul Power had risen from Level 39 to Level 43. Such progress was already extremely fast.

The Shi Mo brothers had both reached Peak Level 39, only one step away from breaking through to Level 40.

Yu Feng and Osler had both reached Level 38 Soul Power.

As the team's healer responsible for treating everyone, Ye Lingling's Soul Power had broken through to Level 37.

Captain Yu Tianheng had even broken through to Soul Ancestor ahead of schedule. After absorbing his fourth Soul Ring, his Soul Power had reached Level 41.

The Imperial Fighting Team's progress was undoubtedly thanks to Gu Feng and Ning Rongrong, the two ultimate grinders.

At this point, the Imperial Fighting Team already had four Soul Ancestors. Before the Soul Master Tournament arrived, Gu Feng could even attempt to break through to Soul King!

As for why Gu Feng had not shared the immortal herbs within the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well with the other members of the Imperial Fighting Team?

Gu Feng was no nanny.

The Imperial Fighting Team members had known Gu Feng for less than a year at most. To him, they were merely teammates.

There was no such thing as a free lunch in this world. Why should he give his heavenly treasures to others?

As for Ning Rongrong, she was someone recognized by the Lovesick Heartbreak Red.

From that very moment, Gu Feng had already chosen Ning Rongrong.

At that moment, Qin Ming strode out from the passageway with a small booklet in hand. His arrival instantly drew everyone's attention.

After stopping before the team, Qin Ming swept his gaze over the nine members and said seriously,

"The Soul Master Tournament is approaching. Next, the Imperial Fighting Team will leave Heaven Dou City and head to the Great Soul Arenas in the various provinces for practical combat training!"

"You have only one goal: defeat every opponent!"

Qin Ming's impassioned voice echoed in Gu Feng's mind.

Gu Feng understood that the original story's plot of the Imperial Fighting Team going out to fight soul battles had begun.
