Ye Lingling made a wish

"Xu Yuan, when can you make a wish on your Wish-Granting Tree Martial Soul?"

"If you're in a hurry, you can make your wish at midnight tonight."

Xu Yuan looked at Ye Lingling; the timing of her wish was entirely up to her.

"Tonight!" Ye Lingling said succinctly.

"Lingling, I'll keep you company tonight!" Dugu Yan echoed.

Those emerald green eyes swept over Xu Yuan with a hint of curiosity.

"If you don't mind, I'd like to see it for myself."

Since graduating from the Shrek Academy, Qin Ming has traveled all over the country and witnessed many strange and interesting things.

He had never even heard of Martial Soul that could grant other people's wishes, let alone seen one.

"I'll stay too!" Yu Tianheng immediately followed suit.

"In that case, let's meet in my Courtyard tonight!"

After Qian Renxue finished speaking, she turned her head and asked, "Xu Yuan, what were you going to the Heaven Dou Auction House with Xiao Wu for?"

"That place requires bidding qualification certification; the entry threshold is 10,000 Gold Soul Coin."

"If you don't have 10,000 Gold Soul Coin, the staff at the Heaven Dou Auction House won't let you in."

"I want to go to the Heaven Dou Auction House to look for ancient Soul Tool in the shape of boats," Xu Yuan said bluntly.

"A boat-type ancient Soul Tool?"

"Heaven Dou City is an inland city; the type of Soul Tool you described is more likely found in coastal cities."

Even if the Heaven Dou Auction House has the highest standards, and may even feature Soul Bone, you might be disappointed.

Qian Renxue didn't understand why Xu Yuan would want this type of Soul Tool.

Could it be that Xu Yuan and Xiao Wu intend to cross the ocean and leave the mainland?

Qian Renxue immediately rejected this unrealistic idea.

"How could this be? What are the two of them doing leaving the mainland?" Qian Renxue thought to herself with a bitter smile.

After adjusting her mindset and thinking carefully, she said, "The Heaven Dou Royal Treasury does indeed contain a Submerged Dragon Boat."

"It is said to be a top-tier Soul Tool passed down from ancient times. In its normal state, it is about the size of a palm, but when Soul Master injects Soul Power into it, it will instantly enlarge to tens of meters."

"It can not only sail on the sea, but also dive to depths of thousands of meters, ignoring any waves or storms on the ocean."

"At the same time, the Submerged Dragon Boat is forged using the bones and blood of a young Golden Dragon as its core material. The hull contains a powerful dragon aura, and sea-type Soul Beast will subconsciously avoid the Submerged Dragon Boat's sailing area."

Qian Renxue's description of the Submerged Dragon Boat perfectly matched Xu Yuan's requirements.

"Not only the Submerged Dragon Boat, but also the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud, the national treasure of the Heaven Dou Empire, is an ancient Soul Tool."

"If you want the Submerged Dragon Boat, you can take it directly from the Heaven Dou Imperial Family Treasury in a few days."

"However, the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud is the Heaven Dou Empire's most treasured national treasure; it won't be easy for you to take it away."

Qian Renxue said thoughtfully.

It's not so much that it's not easy, but rather that it's almost impossible.

Xu Yuan and Xiao Wu certainly possess considerable talent for cultivation, but it will take time for them to realize the full potential of that talent.

The decline of the Heaven Dou Empire was not a matter of a single day.

On the surface, they seem eager to recruit talented individuals, but in reality, the dignity and face of the imperial family and nobility override everything else.

Rather than saying that the Heaven Dou Empire wanted to cultivate Titled Douluo, it would be more accurate to say that they wanted to directly recruit a Titled Douluo.

Because they couldn't recruit them, they turned to training them.

This can be seen from the conflicts within the Heaven Dou Royal Academy in the original novel.

Xue Beng took the initiative to provoke Prince Xue Xing, relying on Dugu Bo's influence, Shrek Qin Ming and the others, driving them away.

Although Shrek Academy is no good and is trying to exploit others, Xue Xing and the others are no better.

The three Soul Douluo instructors unanimously agreed that, given time, Qin Ming would definitely be able to achieve the title of Titled Douluo.

As it turned out, Prince Xue Xing didn't care at all, because the Heaven Dou Royal Academy was the territory of the Eldest Prince Xue Qinghe.

If Xue Qinghe's power is diminished, does the interest of the Heaven Dou Empire still matter?

Neither Qian Renxue nor Xu Yuan believed that Xue Ye would hand over the nation's most precious treasure.

It might be possible if Xu Yuan and Xiao Wu joined the Heaven Dou Empire to serve it.

But who would present the empire's most prized national treasure as a gift upon first meeting?

Fortunately, Xu Yuan didn't expect Xue Ye to agree.

Xiao Wu chooses a Submerged Dragon Boat, she grabs a Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud for herself, and then they retreat with a million coins!

Of course, it would be best if Xue Ye could agree.

"Since the treasure vault contains the Submerged Dragon Boat, we won't go to the Heaven Dou Auction House."

Xu Yuan didn't dwell on going to the Heaven Dou Auction House, but instead looked at Ye Lingling and asked, "Don't you need to discuss this with the others?"

"Although my Wish-Granting Tree Martial Soul can grant other people's wishes, it always grants wishes regardless of whether they live or die."

"Don't wait until something unexpected happens to regret it; by then, it will be too late."

Xu Yuan spoke tactfully; he didn't know Ye Lingling's wish, but the Wish-Granting Tree wouldn't show any mercy.

"It doesn't matter!"

Ye Lingling showed no sign of wavering in her decision.

Xu Yuan did not try to persuade her further. Led by Xue Qinghe, he and Xiao Wu continued their tour of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

Leisure time always seems to pass too quickly.

As the crimson sunset was swallowed by the horizon, the night sky, adorned with stars, quietly enveloped the earth.

As the first half of midnight passed, the Wish Slot for the Wish-Granting Tree Martial Soul were quietly rearranged.

At this moment, a number of people had gathered in Xue Qinghe's courtyard.

Xu Yuan raised his right hand, channeled his Soul Power, and a pale Glazed Ancient Tree, radiant with light, rose from the ground.

Everyone's gaze immediately fell upon the Wish-Granting Tree Martial Soul.

"It looks appealing, but can it really fulfill other people's wishes?"

A hint of doubt flickered in Dugu Yan's eyes.

"Is this the Martial Soul that allowed Uncle to break through to the Soul Elder?"

Yu Tianheng's gaze was slightly vacant, as if he was lost in thought.

"If I make a wish on the Wish-Granting Tree, will Shrek become famous throughout the continent?" Qin Ming's mind was still filled with the Nine Revolutions Glory Gu.

Ye Lingling nervously clenched her small fists and placed them in front of her chest, then stood in front of the Wish-Granting Tree as Xu Yuan instructed.

"Sigh, the spots for the Wish-Granting Tree have been reshuffled, and another new victim is about to appear," Xiao Wu thought to herself.

Hopefully, Ye Lingling's wish won't be too extravagant, otherwise she'd better have a Hundred Thousand Year Origin to set off like firecrackers.

"Wish-Granting Tree, let me see your limits!" Qian Renxue's eyes flickered slightly, her expression extremely serious.

Whether Xu Yuan exaggerated the Wish-Granting Tree's abilities or not, we'll find out soon.

"I hope... I hope I can break free from the curse of the Nine Heart Begonia!"

Ye Lingling's empty gaze gradually hardened; she wanted to take control of her own future!

So that's what you wanted.

Ye Xiaomei, I guess I'll forget about you soon.

The moment Xu Yuan heard her wish, he knew that Ye Lingling would have to fend for herself from now on.

As you wish!

Xu Yuan activated the power of the Wish-Granting Tree Martial Soul.

In an instant, an extremely dazzling white light burst forth from Xue Qinghe's courtyard, instantly engulfing Ye Lingling.

Xu Yuan stood in the pure white space of the Wish-Granting Tree Martial Soul.

Within Ye Lingling's body, a Martial Soul Origin floats and sinks.

It was a pink crabapple blossom, composed of white and pink petals, with vibrant colors and a graceful shape.

The Miracle of Martial Soul: Nine Heart Begonia!

Just as Xu Yuan had predicted, the Wish-Granting Tree Martial Soul did not hesitate at all and directly extracted its abundant source.

As the Martial Soul Origin dissipates, the once lustrous white and warm Nine Heart Begonia, flowing with pure vitality, begins to turn gray.

The pink and white petals lost their vibrant color, and the full, round petals began to wither and wilt.

Ye Lingling felt her heart tremble suddenly, and then the rank of the Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul instantly dropped.
