As for Dongfang, Zhao Zhengtian truly did not take them too seriously.

They were merely a vassal family of average strength.

Standing up for them had only been a matter of convenience.

If Dongfang Ming had not married into the Zhao Family as Zhao Ling'er's live-in son-in-law and needed someone to deliver the betrothal gifts, he would not have made this trip at all.

But for the Oriental Family, this was already more than enough!

Dongfang Runhong and Dongfang Yuanchen immediately broke into smiles, even casting aside the abuse they had suffered earlier.

With this move from the Oriental Family, they could suppress Noble Wind City's two major families, along with the smaller ones, until none of them could lift their heads.

None of them would dare take advantage of the fact that three Soul Emperors of the Oriental Family had been incapacitated—one unconscious and one severely injured—to stir up trouble.

Sure enough, among the watching crowd, those with strange looks in their eyes calmed down once more.

They looked at Dongfang Runhong and Dongfang Yuanchen with renewed fear.

Finally, they all looked at Zhao Zhengtian with reverence.

In Noble Wind City, he could be considered invincible. After all, the strongest people in the entire city were merely Soul Emperors!

Si Tingxuan's eyes flickered as he looked at Hua Qingluo, who had gained another half month with just a single sentence.

It seems you don't have enough faith in me, your teacher!

Tsk, tsk!

Hua Qingluo was still glaring at Zhao Haitang!

Long Wu, standing nearby, happened to catch that look and could not help shivering.

At that moment, she had a bad feeling.

Si Tingxuan looked at Zhao Zhengtian again and said arrogantly, "Since that is the case, then it is settled!"

Zhao Zhengtian did not dislike Si Tingxuan because of his attitude.

After all, Si Tingxuan's arrogance had long become widely known along with his reputation as a genius.

"Farewell!"

Zhao Zhengtian left with Zhao Haitang.

However, after walking more than ten meters away, Zhao Haitang turned back to glance at Si Tingxuan's cold and proud figure.

Just then.

A group of people rushed out from the Hua Residence in a furious flurry.

Every one of them wore an angry expression.

"Where is that little bastard Fang Hai? Today, I'll chop him alive! With his character, he actually dared come to the Hua Family to break off the engagement!"

Hua Qingluo immediately laughed when she heard that. There was only one person with such a fiery temper—the Great Elder.

She promptly went up to greet him. "Great Elder!"

Then she saw the other elders, as well as her father and grandfather.

Hua Qingluo became even happier. "Father! Grandfather!"

The Family Head and former Family Head looked overjoyed.

"Qingluo, you're back?"

Then they frowned. "Why have you returned already? Did you not enter Odd Weapons Academy?"

This was the Hua Family's only hope now!

Nothing could go wrong.

The moment he said that.

All the elders present turned to look at Hua Qingluo.

They all held their breath, as though afraid even the slightest noise would disrupt things and prevent them from hearing clearly.

After all, Hua Qingluo's next words concerned the very survival of the entire Hua Family!

Hua Wufeng immediately stepped forward and eagerly answered before anyone else could. "Not only did Qingluo enter Odd Weapons Academy, she was also noticed by Si Tingxuan, the academy's youngest instructor, and accepted as his disciple!"

"Si Tingxuan?"

"The youngest Soul Emperor on the entire continent?"

"The super genius destined to stand at the peak of the world and become a Titled Douluo?"

Although Hua Qingluo's talent was indeed good enough to call her a genius.

She should not have been enough to catch Si Tingxuan's eye!

After all, he possessed Innate Full Soul Power and was the first Soul Master on the entire continent to have a companion Martial Soul.

In their eyes, anyone he took a liking to should at least possess Innate Level Eight or Level Nine.

Level Seven was still somewhat lacking.

Thus, this sudden piece of wonderful news had utterly stunned them.

They found it somewhat hard to believe.

Yet no matter how hard it was to believe, they had no choice but to believe it. They did not think Hua Wufeng, an elder of the family, would joke about such a matter.

Still, the former Family Head could not help asking, "Wufeng, is what you said true?"

He was simply too excited, and his voice trembled slightly!

At this moment, Hua Qingluo could not hold herself back either. She stepped over to stand beside Si Tingxuan.

With a proud expression, she said, "My teacher is right here. How could it be false?"

"Moreover, just now, Teacher severely injured Dongfang Yichen and Dongfang Yuanchen of the Oriental Family. One's life or death is unknown, while the other was heavily injured and forced to kneel. Even Dongfang Runhong, the Oriental Family Head, was frightened into retreating!"

Finally, she enunciated each word clearly. "Grandfather, Father, Elders, our Hua Family has been saved!"

The former Family Head, the Family Head, and all the elders.

All turned their gazes toward the cold and proud Si Tingxuan.

Their eyes were filled with excitement.

Hua Wufeng added, "Just now, a Soul Sage from the Zhao Family also stepped forward. However, he only arranged a soul duel between the younger generation and said nothing else."

"What?"

"A Soul Sage from the Zhao Family!"

The two Family Heads and the elders cried out again.

They had originally intended to teach Fang Hai, that fool who did not know his place, a lesson.

Yet they had not expected to receive one enormous surprise after another the moment they arrived at the residence gate.

All their previous worries vanished.

They looked at Si Tingxuan with grateful expressions.

Hua Wufeng immediately introduced him. "Two Family Heads, Elders, allow me to formally and solemnly introduce him. This is Instructor Si Tingxuan!"

The Family Head immediately said respectfully, "Welcome, Instructor Si Tingxuan! Please forgive us for failing to greet you from afar."

After exchanging pleasantries for a while, Si Tingxuan brought Hua Qingluo and Long Wu to a courtyard in the Hua Family reserved for entertaining distinguished guests.

Si Tingxuan looked at the two of them. "Since you agreed to this duel, you cannot lose! But your current strength leaves much to be desired!"

"Winning will be difficult! Therefore, during this month, you must figure out a Martial Soul Fusion Skill. Only then will you have a chance of victory!"

"To figure it out as soon as possible, from now on, the two of you will eat together, live together, sleep together—even when going to the toilet, you must go together. You must be completely inseparable."

"Remember, at this moment, you are one person!"

There was no other way!

Long Wu only had one ring. Without a Martial Soul Fusion Skill, facing the combined forces of Dongfang Ming and Zhao Ling'er, two young geniuses, they would likely have no chance of winning at all.

Hua Qingluo and Long Wu clearly understood this as well.

The two looked at each other and said in unison, "Yes, Teacher! We absolutely will not disappoint you!"

Simply being inseparable and acting as one person would not be enough.

Your teacher will add a little something extra for you. Otherwise, how could I display my greatness!

Hehe!

Hua Qingluo and Long Wu both shivered at once, thinking timidly, Teacher suddenly seems a little scary.

Just then, the system reappeared.

"Ding, special dungeon mission! Find Yun Piaopiao in Noble Wind City and accept her as a disciple! Reward: three levels of Soul Power and one designated Soul Bone!"
