The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King let out a long howl.

The trident sent his enormous body flying thousands of yards.

Blood gushed from the wound.

Bo Saixi raised a hand and beckoned.

The Sea God Trident returned to her hand.

The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King stared at his wound, his expression darkening completely.

He understood now.

Even after Bo Saixi had gained the cultivation of a Third-Level God, she still held the advantage in the Ocean.

If they kept fighting, he might not win.

Besides, the power the Sea God had left behind still surrounded Sea God Island.

"Bo Saixi, I'll remember what happened today."

The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King turned and left.

He forced the endless seawater apart.

His enormous body rapidly receded, leaving great swaths of churning waves behind.

Bo Saixi did not pursue him.

She stood above Sea God Island and watched the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King disappear into the distance.

Sea Horse Douluo came up behind her.

"High Priestess, why didn't you stop him?"

Bo Saixi put away the Sea God Trident.

"He has the cultivation of a Third-Level God now."

"Even if I could defeat him with Sea God Island's power, truly killing him would be difficult."

"If he fled into the deep sea at any cost, I couldn't catch him."

Bo Saixi looked out across the boundless waters.

"The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King is too powerful."

"From today on, the Ocean will know no peace."

Sea Horse Douluo and the others looked grave.

Bo Saixi raised her head toward the sky.

The golden ranking still hung high overhead.

"I hope those ranked above him won't be even more terrifying."

Shrek Academy.

Ning Rongrong, Zhu Zhuqing, and Xiao Wu sat on a patch of grass.

Ning Rongrong plucked a blade of grass and gently placed it on Xiao Wu's head.

"Now you look even more like a rabbit."

Xiao Wu reached up and touched the top of her head.

Seeing the amusement in Ning Rongrong's eyes, she immediately grabbed a handful of grass and threw it at her.

"Rongrong, you're picking on me again!"

The grass landed on Ning Rongrong's shoulder.

Sitting beside them, Zhu Zhuqing smiled too.

She reached over and picked the grass out of Ning Rongrong's hair.

"Rongrong, you started it."

Ning Rongrong gave a little huff.

"Zhu Zhuqing, why are you taking Xiao Wu's side too?"

Xiao Wu immediately leaned against Zhu Zhuqing.

"Of course Zhu Zhuqing's on my side."

Zhu Zhuqing did not answer.

She looked up at the sky.

Bo Saixi's name now hung high in seventh place.

"Bo Saixi has advanced to Third-Level God."

Ning Rongrong set aside her playful mood too.

"She used to have only level ninety-nine Soul Power, but she could borrow the Sea God's power."

"Now that she's gained the cultivation of a Third-Level God, she should be stronger than the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King."

Xiao Wu read the description in the sky.

"The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King was acting so arrogant just now."

"But the moment Bo Saixi received her reward, she drove him back."

Ning Rongrong rested her chin in her hand.

"She's not just strong. She's beautiful too."

"That red dress, that long blue hair, and the Sea God Trident."

"Now that's a powerful woman worthy of being High Priestess."

Zhu Zhuqing said nothing.

She watched the scene of Bo Saixi fighting the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, her eyes intent.

"The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King had god-level cultivation, yet Bo Saixi still defeated him."

"How strong must the six people above her be?"

Xiao Wu gently swung her legs.

"Maybe everyone above her is a god."

Ning Rongrong answered at once: "Seventh place is already a Third-Level God."

"The top six must be Second-Level Gods at least. Some might even be First-Level Gods."

"Then what about first place?"

Xiao Wu raised her head.

Ning Rongrong looked toward the sky.

"First place might have surpassed the gods themselves."

Zhu Zhuqing clenched her fists.

She thought of the powerful figures who had appeared on the Golden Rankings.

Bibi Dong, Tang Chen, the Snow Empress, the Evil-Eyed Tyrant, the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, and now Bo Saixi.

Every one of them possessed strength she could only look up to.

But she was still only a Soul Elder.

The gap between her and them was vast.

"I have to work harder."

Zhu Zhuqing looked down at her hands.

She did not want to stand behind Dai Mubai forever.

Nor did she want to place her future in someone else's hands.

Ning Rongrong turned to her.

"Zhu Zhuqing, you're already working so hard."

Zhu Zhuqing shook her head.

"It's not enough."

Just then, footsteps sounded in the distance.

Yu Xiaogang, Tang San, and Oscar approached from the training ground.

Yu Xiaogang stopped when he saw the three of them.

"Have you seen Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun?"

Xiao Wu shook her head.

"No."

Oscar looked around.

"They left this morning and haven't come back."

Tang San frowned.

"The All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Tournament is about to begin."

"It really isn't right for them to be running around at a time like this."

Yu Xiaogang's face darkened.

"Do you know what you're doing?"

Xiao Wu blinked.

"We're just resting here."

"I wasn't talking about you."

Yu Xiaogang looked into the distance.

"Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun never think about training. All they want to do is go out and have fun."

"Have they forgotten they're about to compete in the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Tournament?"

"Competition between Soul Masters never stops."

Yu Xiaogang clasped his hands behind his back, his gaze settling on Tang San and Oscar.

"While you rest, Soul Masters from other academies are training."

"While you play around outside, others are raising their Soul Power."

"When you finally step onto the tournament stage, how will you defeat your opponents?"

Xiao Wu lowered her head.

Ning Rongrong, however, pursed her lips.

Yu Xiaogang continued:

"There are no shortcuts on a Soul Master's path."

"Only by training constantly can you reach greater heights."

"If you lack even that much self-discipline, you'll end up a worthless Soul Master."

With that, Yu Xiaogang turned and headed for the training ground.

Tang San and Oscar hurried after him.

Xiao Wu and the other two remained where they were.

Xiao Wu stuck out her tongue.

"There he goes again."

"He's always calling other people worthless Soul Masters."

Ning Rongrong watched Yu Xiaogang leave.

"He's only level twenty-nine himself."

"And his Martial Soul is a pig."

"What gives him the right to lecture anyone?"

Xiao Wu immediately covered her mouth.

Zhu Zhuqing glanced at Ning Rongrong.

But Ning Rongrong did not look away.

"He says Soul Masters can't rely on luck and must train hard."

"But after all these years of training, he still hasn't broken through level thirty."

"He demands things of others every day that he can't even do himself."

Xiao Wu nodded.

"Rongrong, you have a point."

Ning Rongrong folded her arms.

"I just think the way he talks is ridiculous."

Zhu Zhuqing did not join their discussion.

She looked up at Bo Saixi in the sky.

The cultivation of a Third-Level God.

The Sea God's Nine Trials.

Invincible in the Ocean.

Those words kept surfacing in her mind.

She slowly stood.

"I'm going to train."

Ning Rongrong turned to her.

"Right now?"

Zhu Zhuqing nodded.

"The tournament is about to start."

"I can't fall behind."

With that, she headed toward the training ground.

Xiao Wu watched Zhu Zhuqing walk away.

"Zhu Zhuqing was getting more and more serious."

Ning Rongrong sat on the grass, gently swinging her legs.

"Bo Saixi must have fired her up."

She looked up at the sky again.

On the Golden Rankings, Bo Saixi's name still shone.

Ning Rongrong propped her chin on her hand.

"I really want to know what the person in first place is like."
