After another seven days of bumpy travel in the carriage, Xu Yuan and Xiao Wu finally arrived at Heaven Dou City.

The tall and thick city walls stretch across the land, built entirely of Granite, resembling a sleeping dragon with no end in sight.

Flags fluttered on the city walls, and the patrolling taxi drivers, fully armored and wielding spears, exuded a fierce and disciplined aura.

The main gate in the very center is closed; to enter Heaven Dou City, one must enter through the side gates on either side.

"Oh dear, we're finally here! Sister Xiao Wu bottom is about to break from sitting on this!" Xiao Wu frowned as she jumped off the carriage.

After settling the final payment with the Coachman, Xu Yuan turned around and looked at the city wall, which was hundreds of meters high, and felt an overwhelming sense of its imposing presence.

"Xu Yuan, what are we doing in Heaven Dou City?" Xiao Wu asked, puzzled.

"We should at least come and see the world, shouldn't we?" Xu Yuan led Xiao Wu into the city through a side gate.

Stepping through the city gate, one is greeted by a wide street paved with blue bricks, lined with various Trading House and restaurants.

A constant stream of people came and went, and tall horses carrying heavy loads stood on both sides of the street.

Xiao Wu stared wide-eyed at the bustling streets. Compared to Heaven Dou City, Nuoding City was practically the countryside.

"Don't run around!"

"Heaven Dou City is the capital of the empire, full of noble children. If you're not careful, you'll be in trouble."

Xu Yuan took Xiao Wu's wrist and walked towards the breakfast shop.

His main target in coming to Heaven Dou City this time was Dugu Yan.

Dugu Bo is Titled Expert. Although he was Poison Numbness, his strength should not be underestimated, and his personality is also unpredictable.

What troubled Xu Yuan the most was that Dugu Bo and Tang Hao were very similar, both belonging to the Schrödinger's cat type.

No one knows when Dugu Bo will return to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, or when he will come to Heaven Dou City to visit Dugu Yan.

Before coming, Xu Yuan tested his ability to Word Manifestation true, and without exception, all of them failed.

Dugu Bo was in better condition than Tang Hao.

His whereabouts cannot be predicted using his ability to Word Manifestation.

"Was Tang Hao simply in poor condition, or was it because he made a wish at the Wish-Granting Tree that it was predicted to happen?"

Xu Yuan's thoughts raced as he sat in the shop with Xiao Wu.

The two were positioned very close together, and after several days of getting to know each other, merging their Soul Power was no longer a difficult task.

Xu Yuan and Xiao Wu both had a premonition that they could activate their Martial Soul Fusion Skill at any time, if they wished.

We bumped around in the carriage for a long time without stopping much along the way.

They never had the chance to use their Martial Soul Fusion Skill.

Although Xu Yuan could not predict Dugu Bo's whereabouts, Dugu Yan was always within his monitoring range.

According to Xu Yuan's observation, Dugu Yan has been going to the Heaven Dou Great Soul Arena every day recently.

Xu Yuan took a bite of the steamed bun, his gaze sweeping across the street opposite the shop.

He suddenly noticed a group of arrogant-looking aristocratic children dressed in well-tailored school uniforms walking across the street.

"Big Brother Xue Beng, what did you think of that cat-eared girl I saw at the auction? I have one at home!"

"Yes, Big Brother Xue Beng, if you need something like that, I can find you one anytime."

"Big Brother Xue Beng, don't listen to him! You are the Fourth Prince of the Heaven Dou Empire, one isn't enough!"

The boys, who looked to be around ten years old, were nonchalant and exuded an air of arrogance and spoiled brats.

"Sigh! What Fourth Prince! I only envy the Catgirl, not the Emperor's Throne!"

Xue Beng was dressed in a magnificent brocade robe, with a hint of arrogance typical of royalty on his face, and appeared to be uneducated and incompetent.

As he spoke, his eyes darted around, as if he were looking for an opportunity to prove himself.

Xue Beng thought of his two older brothers who had died tragically, a look of fear flashed in his eyes, lest he follow in their footsteps.

Of course, pretending to be a playboy is indeed very comfortable; with this opportunity, he can do many things that he couldn't do before.

If there's a chance to clear their name later, they can just claim it was all a cover-up!

Xue Beng's eyes darted around, and in a quick glance, he noticed Xiao Wu eating rice in the shop across the street.

"Wow, that little girl is quite cute! I'll take her!"

Xue Beng's eyes lit up; he decided to pick up a pet while he was at it.

Xu Yuan noticed Xue Beng's gaze and initiated the attack with zero frames.

"I said, the person before me must have been hit by the carriage and lost consciousness."

Although the Xue Beng might be faked, Xu Yuan couldn't be sure.

Therefore, he chose to strike first.

The next moment.

Beside the wide street, a tall horse carrying goods, waiting to depart, suddenly became startled and galloped away.

"Hey, there's one across the street..." Xue Beng pointed to the other side of the street, and many spoiled young men looked in that direction.

Just then, the sound of extremely rapid hoofbeats came from the street, giving no one time to react.

The moment everyone turned their heads, the voices suddenly vanished from their ears.

"Big Brother Xue Beng, what do you think is on the other side... Big Brother Xue Beng?"

The group of spoiled brats felt a chill run down their spines.

When he turned to ask again, the Fourth Prince Xue Beng, who had been standing there, had vanished into thin air in an instant.

This is not the end.

The galloping of the tall horse was like a spreading plague, startling many packhorses, which then began to run wildly.

The entire bustling street was thrown into chaos.

Surprisingly, the packhorses did not harm any innocent bystanders, but instead focused specifically on Xue Beng collisions.

The Xue Beng's figure was thrown into the air, and before it could land, it was knocked into the sky again by another packhorse.

After more than a dozen breaths, the Xue Beng finally crashed to the ground.

"Big Brother Xue Beng!"

After a dull thud and a sudden silence, the spoiled brats clutched their heads, letting out sharp, explosive cries.

"Xu Yuan, why is the street outside such a mess?" Xiao Wu had just finished a bowl of carrot porridge, looked up and asked.

"It's alright, let's go find a place to stay."

Xu Yuan spoke calmly and in a neutral tone.

He glanced at the Xue Beng that had landed, but the Word Manifestation was too great; he couldn't detect a trace of it at all.

The addition of the Fate Soul Ring makes the ability to Word Manifestation become law even more unpredictable.

This is also closely related to Xu Yuan's Soul Power Level.

Xu Yuan is already a level 39 Soul Elder, but Xue Beng hasn't even touched the threshold of Soul Grandmaster.

The enormous difference in Soul Power between the two rendered Xue Beng utterly powerless to resist.

After the two left, the City Guards arrived late.

The two of them eventually checked into a hotel.

Thanks to the monthly Wish Slot competition at the Wish-Granting Tree, Xu Yuan isn't short of Gold Soul Coin.

As night fell, Xu Yuan was dragged out for a stroll by Xiao Wu.

By the time she had had her fill of fun, Xu Yuan calculated that it was about time.

During this period, Lone Goose will go to the Great Soul Arena to participate in one-on-one and two-on-two strategic Soul Fighting Battles.

"Let's go to the Heaven Dou Great Soul Arena!"

With Xiao Wu looking on in confusion, Xu Yuan led her to a huge oval building that was a hundred meters high.

In the spacious reception hall of the Great Soul Arena stands a huge stone tablet, covered with densely packed names.

Xu Yuan had just stepped into the hall when he heard a familiar name.

"Young Master Yu, you are full of vigor and spirit!"

"I heard you'll soon receive a Silver Soul Badge!"

"However, your target in today's Soul Fighting is no ordinary person; it's said to be the granddaughter of the Poison Douluo!"
