Another Improvement

Feng Yang looked over.

Meng Yiran wore a slightly shy expression.

Pretending to deliberate.

For Feng Yang, having someone take the initiative to become his disciple—

That was naturally something he could only wish for.

What's more, she was the granddaughter of the Peerless Dragon Snake, whose Martial Soul Fusion Skill could contend with a Title Douluo.

"Since the Dragon Duke has spoken, I must give him this respect. I'll accept your granddaughter as my disciple," Feng Yang said in a deliberately calm tone.

Meng Shu found those words incredibly pleasing.

There wasn't the slightest sense of abruptness.

It truly was an art of language.

"Hahaha." He couldn't help bursting into laughter. "Good, good! Yiran, hurry and pay respects to your master!"

Meng Yiran revealed a delighted expression. She had never expected her grandparents' reputation to be so useful.

She immediately knelt before Feng Yang.

"Meng Yiran pays respects to Master."

Ding—!

Explosive!

Although Meng Yiran's aptitude was only 160, dozens of points below Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing's—

The reward issued was still a Super Excellent Reward.

It seemed that aptitudes within the 100 range were treated equally.

Obtaining an External Soul Bone had not only increased his Soul Power, but also improved his strength, agility, reactions, and every other aspect.

An External Soul Bone truly deserved to be called the best kind of soul bone.

He had also risen six levels, becoming a Soul Emperor!

Rising from level 43 to level 61 in such a short time would be shocking to anyone.

And the Sixth Soul Skill he had learned filled Feng Yang with an overwhelming sense of security.

After all.

In the original story.

Oscar's third soul skill let him fly at the speed of a Thousand Year Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent for one minute, covering 2,000 meters.

In ten minutes, that was 20,000 meters.

In sixty minutes, it was 120,000 meters—converted to kilometers, that was only 120 kilometers per hour.

That speed alone was already enough to leave most Soul Masters and soul beasts unable to catch up.

So what kind of concept was 84 kilometers per hour?

Ding!

The most suitable Inscription Hero Skill replication has been found for Meng Yiran—

Zhao Xin

Crescent Guard LV1

Unleashes 150% of current strength and performs a sweeping strike around oneself, knocking back all enemies

"Good disciple, rise."

This time.

Feng Yang did not directly hand over the Inscription.

That would make him seem too cheap.

Now that Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing, his two disciples, were already helping uphold his image—

There was naturally no need for him to act as he had before.

He should collect a little interest first.

Meng Yiran stood up as well.

"Let me introduce your two senior sisters. This is your eldest senior sister, Zhu Zhuqing, and this is your second senior sister, Ning Rongrong," Feng Yang said.

"Greetings, Senior Sisters," Meng Yiran said.

"Hello."

Both girls were rather cold.

Zhu Zhuqing was naturally aloof, while Ning Rongrong was somewhat arrogant.

Of course, it was also possible that she was unhappy.

Feng Yang had taken another disciple, which meant he would have to care for one more person.

For Ning Rongrong, who had been the sole favorite at home, such a situation was naturally difficult to accept.

"Master, how are seniority rankings determined?" Meng Yiran asked.

"By the order in which you became disciples," Feng Yang said.

"Ah? Can't it be according to age? I should be two or three years older than them," Meng Yiran said.

"Yiran, you have only just become Master's disciple. Don't be rude," Meng Shu rebuked.

"Heh." Feng Yang chuckled. "No matter. Being competitive is how one improves. If there's a chance in the future, I can hold a Disciple Hegemony Tournament. The strongest will become eldest senior sister."

"Great!"

Meng Yiran happily agreed.

Little did she know that among these genius girls, her aptitude was not particularly outstanding at all.

"Mm, then what arrangements does the Dragon Duke have next?" Feng Yang looked at Meng Shu.

Meng Shu stroked his white beard.

"Yiran is currently at the peak of level 29 and may break through to level 30 at any time. That is why we have remained in Suotuo City, preparing to head straight to the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt a soul ring for Yiran once she reaches level 30."

"So that's how it is. Then perfect. Later, Dragon Duke, tell me the address where you're staying. I'll go test Yiran tomorrow so I can give her proper guidance," Feng Yang said.

Meng Shu and Chao Tianxiang's eyes lit up.

He really was a good master, so attentive toward their granddaughter.

"Yiran, hurry and thank your master."

"Thank you, Master." Meng Yiran hurriedly clasped her fists.

"You're welcome."

"Then, young brother," Meng Shu said.

"Dragon Duke, there's no need to be so polite. I'm your junior, so just call me Feng Yang," Feng Yang said with a smile.

He had no airs at all, and Meng Shu was extremely satisfied with Feng Yang.

Meng Shu happily changed the way he addressed him.

"Good, good, good. Brother Feng Yang, let's have a proper drink today."

The moon shone brightly, and the stars were sparse.

Shrek Academy.

Looking at the new Inscription in her hand—

Cat.

Magic Possession.

Merge oneself into the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda and attach to an ally. Until the ally dies or resists, the user cannot be targeted.

Ning Rongrong was astonished.

"Master is amazing. The new soul skill he created for me is far too difficult."

"..."

Zhu Zhuqing, who was also studying her new Inscription, did not answer.

"Zhu Zhuqing, what is your Inscription Skill?"

Ning Rongrong leaned closer.

Sight Induction.

Reduce one's presence on the battlefield and catch enemies off guard.

"Oh my god! What a terrifying skill description. This is practically the ultimate divine skill for the Agility Attack System, and a nightmare for the Support System. Reducing one's presence—wouldn't that mean an Agility Attack System Soul Master could suddenly leap out from beside you if you weren't paying attention?" Ning Rongrong said in shock.

"Yes." Zhu Zhuqing finally voiced her amazement. "Who could imagine what kind of genius our master truly is?"

"..."

Ning Rongrong sat before the window, resting her chin on both hands as she looked toward the main gate.

"Speaking of Master, he still hasn't returned. Could he be staying out all night?"

"He still hasn't returned?"

For Zhu Zhuqing, who was always so cold and detached, to ask that question at this moment showed just how much she cared about Feng Yang.
