Provocation from Wu Feng, First Battle!

"An Ice Jade Scorpion from several centuries ago? And you're this happy about it?" Wu Feng followed behind Ning Tian, her nostrils raised high and her face full of smugness.

"..."

Su Wen glanced at Wu Feng but ignored her.

Wu Feng grew even more pleased with herself. She raised her head high. "I'm already level fifteen. As your senior, would you like me to give you some guidance?"

The corner of Old Bamboo's mouth twitched.

Seeing that Yan Shaozhe had said nothing, he quietly held back as well and did not stop her.

Looking at the entire Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, Wu Feng's talent was surpassed only by that of the Young Sect Master. None of the other direct descendants were her match, and over the years, she had grown extremely arrogant.

It was a good thing to knock some of the edge off this genuine prodigy.

"Are you sure?"

Su Wen hesitated.

Although the Ice Sovereign's Ice Domain was a domain-type skill and he currently had no powerful offensive abilities, dealing with a little fifteen-year-old girl was still more than easy enough.

There was no need to have Hurricane take action.

The Original Work had mentioned that Wu Feng's flames were extraordinarily powerful, even showing a tendency to approach Ultimate Fire. But there was still a threshold between them, and the difference was as vast as a heavenly chasm.

"Of course!"

The corners of Wu Feng's mouth lifted.

She could barely suppress her grin.

Today, she was going to expose this hypocrite's true colors on behalf of the Young Miss!

After being infuriated by Su Wen's words earlier, her hands were itching badly. She couldn't wait to beat this brat senseless.

Ning Tian's beautiful eyes shifted. She had been curious about Su Wen's strength for a long time, and now that she could finally test it, she was naturally quite interested.

But she was different from Wu Feng.

She secretly glanced at the two elders and saw both of them standing with their arms crossed and amiable smiles on their faces. Yan Shaozhe in particular was grinning like an old fox.

Her curiosity about Su Wen's mystery grew even stronger.

"Ha!"

"Dragon's Fire!"

Wu Feng gave a delicate shout.

Crimson dragon scales spread downward from her neck. In just a few seconds, she seemed to have "evolved" into a dragon-human. At the same time, her body grew more slender. She shot up from a one-and-a-half-meter-tall little bean sprout at eight years old into a one-meter-seventy girl of around twelve or thirteen.

Crimson flames burned around her body.

Her entire aura suddenly changed.

Su Wen nodded slightly.

As expected of the Red Dragon. Although this martial soul could not compare to Ma Xiaotao's, it was only one level behind. Among all fire-attribute martial souls, it definitely ranked near the top.

But unfortunately, I possess Ultimate Ice...

Wu Feng leaped high into the air, her beautiful eyes filled with the thrill of bullying the weak.

Flames curled around her body. She seemed to transform into a fire dragon as she roared furiously at Su Wen and descended from the sky.

"Ice Sovereign!"

Su Wen gave a low shout.

The Ice Sovereign understood at once and instantly activated Ice Domain.

A pale-blue halo spread from its body, reaching Wu Feng in the sky as well. Her beautiful eyes suddenly contracted, and the vigorous flames surrounding her flickered for an instant, causing her aura to drop several degrees.

As Wu Feng felt her movements slow, Su Wen felt the cells throughout his body cheering with delight.

With Ice Domain, combined with the speed attribute boost from Hurricane, Su Wen felt that his speed had reached its peak at that moment. He leaped into the air and charged toward Wu Feng.

This is a level-twenty-one Soul Master?!

Wu Feng's heart surged like turbulent waves.

But she had no time to think. She hurriedly raised her arms to block.

"Boom!"

The attack moved so quickly that she could barely react.

As an Agile Attack System Soul Master, Wu Feng could only just make out a phantom before a whip kick came lashing toward her. Amid a thunderous boom, she was sent flying backward like a torn sack.

She crashed into the snow.

Snow sprayed into the air. As the fierce flames around Wu Feng collided with the snow, white mist rose and hissed...

Ning Tian stood there in a daze.

She lost?!

She just lost?

She knew that Su Wen was no ordinary person.

But Wu Feng had been invincible among her peers throughout the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School. To see her defeated so effortlessly was truly difficult for Ning Tian to accept.

Su Wen drifted lightly down onto the snow.

The Ice Domain had already been withdrawn.

With the double enhancement of the two buffs, he felt that he was not much different from an Agile Attack System Soul Master.

His first battle had ended perfectly!

Wu Feng, however, was in a rather miserable state.

She stood up clutching her stomach and glared viciously at Su Wen. Suddenly, her eyes misted over. "You cheated! You're not a level-eleven Soul Master at all! Waaaaah..."

"Who said I was level eleven?" Su Wen shrugged.

"Then why did you say you were getting your first Soul Ring?" Wu Feng felt even more aggrieved. She had been treated like a monkey, and with the pain in her abdomen, tears streamed uncontrollably down her face.

"Who said people at this age could only obtain their first Soul Ring?" Su Wen chuckled.

Two yellow Soul Rings rose beneath his feet.

He glanced at Wu Feng's stunned face.

"If you're bad, practice more..."

"Level twenty-one, dual attributes of Ultimate Ice and wind, plus two external martial souls. That's basically three against one, and you call this eight years old?!!"

For the first time, Ning Tian's usually serene and elegant face revealed disbelief.

Wu Feng drooped her head at the side, occasionally sneaking a glance at Su Wen. Tears still stained her face, and her nose twitched from time to time.

This guy really hit hard.

Her lower abdomen still throbbed faintly.

The flames she was so proud of had been completely countered by Su Wen's Ultimate Ice, like a son seeing his father. They could not display any advantage at all.

Su Wen merely smiled amiably.

I have two virtues. One, I never hit women. Two, I make no distinction between men and women.

Want me to show mercy because you're a beautiful girl? That's the job of a simp.

The fact that I didn't press my advantage was already quite restrained, all right?

Still, he knew his own strength and had not gone too far. He had not broken any ribs or anything. At most, she would be sore for a while—a superficial injury.

He did not dislike Wu Feng. At worst, she was just a child guarding her food. But since she kept bothering him, he had taken the opportunity to make her quiet down.

"Yes, eight years old."

Su Wen smiled.

"Not bad, I suppose. Just barely passable."

He added the polite remark out of courtesy.

The corner of Ning Tian's mouth twitched.

As the direct descendant of one of the continent's top powers, she naturally knew a little about the other prodigies her age. Her own talent was exceptional, and the only person who could compare with her was Dai Huabin, the second direct son of the White Tiger Duke Mansion. Both of them were around level sixteen or seventeen.

The two of them were far ahead of the other geniuses by an entire tier.

They were likely the true prodigies who had an extremely high chance of breaking through to the Soul Elder realm before entering school four years later.

Yet a Monster had suddenly appeared—someone she had never heard of, but who was even farther ahead of them. It was truly shocking.

No! He has already broken through to level twenty-one. How monstrous will he be four years from now? Could this guy break through to the Soul Ancestor realm?!

Ning Tian's pupils suddenly contracted.

It really seems possible!

She felt her confidence take a considerable blow.

Wu Feng pouted even more. Although she was still a child who remembered food but not pain, she unusually did not provoke Su Wen on the way back, allowing him to enjoy considerably more peace and quiet.

"Since that's the case, let's part ways here."

Yan Shaozhe and Old Bamboo nodded to each other.

Ning Tian waved, quite warmly. Wu Feng let out a long sigh of relief and unwillingly said goodbye...

Su Wen watched An Yang City gradually shrink in his field of vision.

Shrek, I'm back!
