Reunion with Zhu Zhuqing; the Thunder Soul Bone appears

Their bodies stiffened.

No one in the Shrek Academy dared to tease them like this.

You can hear that familiar voice.

His body went limp again.

The two girls turned to look at Lu Ning at the same time, their eyes filled with resentment. "So you finally decided to come back!?"

"Any slower and we'll have to go and participate in the Bet ourselves!"

Lu Ning reached out and pinched their soft spots.

The words of the two people earlier.

He had heard it clearly all along.

Three years later, he still remembered the Bet, so naturally he wouldn't miss the chance to watch the Grandmaster run naked.

Xiao Wu and Shui Bing'er exchanged a glance.

Shui Bing'er gently interrupted the three's conversation, "I'm going back to the Skywater Academy. I want to learn about the rules for exchange students at the Shrek Academy so I can transfer here and study for a while as soon as possible."

Xiao Wu watched as Lu Ning hugged Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing.

A slight pang of jealousy stirred within me.

"I'm going back to my solitary confinement cell too."

Ning Rongrong decisively grabbed Xiao Wu: "What are we going back for?"

"Since he's willing to take you out, that means he's lifting your confinement."

"From now on, you can go wherever you want. You don't have to listen to this guy."

"We'll always be friends."

Ning Rongrong glanced at Lu Ning as she spoke.

Hopefully, he'll say something to put Xiao Wu's mind at ease.

After Xiao Wu, she only had one friend at the Shrek Academy.

Even though he briefly left Shrek with the Grandmaster for betraying their friendship, did he really deserve this lifelong imprisonment?

"As long as we don't leave the Royal Dou, it's fine."

Lu Ning smiled faintly and spoke.

Ning Rongrong was unaware that Xiao Wu was Soul Beast.

That's why I pretended to be angry and said that to myself.

If she had known that Titled Douluo expert could see through Xiao Wu's true appearance, she probably wouldn't have allowed Xiao Wu to leave.

Xiao Wu looked at Ning Rongrong with a smile in her eyes.

She was just saying that out of jealousy.

Hearing Ning Rongrong say, "We'll always be friends," warmed her heart. At least there wasn't the palace intrigue she had imagined; Ning Rongrong was genuinely kind to her.

Let's take a rest first.

We're leaving tomorrow.

Lu Ning yawned and walked outside.

Ning Rongrong pulled Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing back.

Tell us about your outing tonight!

Lu Ning hadn't gone far when he left.

A wave of heat swept towards Lu Ning. Looking around, Ma Hongjun stood in front of a group of female students of similar age, showing off his Martial Soul. The flames released by the phoenix were controlled by him to resemble roses, which was quite stunning.

In the past few months, Ma Hongjun's control over flames has also improved significantly.

However, one cannot have both Soul Power and spiritual power.

The Soul Power Card did not show a significant improvement at level 46.

"How are things, fellow female students?"

How is my Martial Soul?

Ma Hongjun spoke triumphantly.

The junior student in front of him looked at him with envy. "Wow, you're amazing, senior! You're about the same age as us, how do you control the flames so perfectly?"

"They can even be arranged in the shape of a flower?"

Ma Hongjun chuckled.

He practiced for two months to achieve this.

It has a negligible impact on improving strength.

But it looks good!

Does being handsome need any reason?

"It's a long story."

"Let's have dinner together tonight, and I'll explain it to you all slowly."

As soon as Ma Hongjun finished speaking, the group of female students surrounding him instantly retreated, their envy vanishing in an instant. "Um, senior, we're not fire-attribute Soul Master, so let's not learn this."

"It seems like class is about to start, we have to go now, goodbye Ma Hongjun."

Ma Hongjun's smile froze.

"No, no, no."

"You can learn this even without fire attribute; it's a little trick for controlling Soul Power. Don't you really want to hear it?"

The group of female students didn't stop walking and quickly left.

Only a handful of male trainees remained standing in place.

"Ma Hongjun, we want to learn!"

"Shall we treat you to dinner tonight?"

Ma Hongjun's face turned ashen. "Go away, I don't have time. It's unbelievable how we always fail at this stage! Isn't it too obvious? Damn it, we should have started by talking about our families of origin!"

Ma Hongjun lifted his leg and walked towards the direction outside the school.

I wanted to find a place to vent my anger a little.

Lu Ning waved to him.

"Hongjun."

Do you have time?

Hearing Lu Ning's familiar voice, Ma Hongjun turned around abruptly. Upon seeing Lu Ning's weathered yet mature face, he was overjoyed. His previous dejection vanished, and he rushed towards Lu Ning.

"Brother Ning!"

"You're finally back!"

I've missed you so much!

Lu Ning pushed his embrace away.

"Sorry, bro, I'm not interested in men."

Ma Hongjun spat a few times.

"I'm not interested in men either!"

"What nonsense are you spouting, Brother Ning?"

Lu Ning stopped joking and said seriously, "Come on, let's go to your room. I have something good for you."

Ma Hongjun chuckled and led the way.

He knew Lu Ning wouldn't mistreat him.

I always bring him something back whenever I go out.

He's been in a really bad mood lately.

The Twins sisters who had originally booked him disliked his young age, and since they were both of marriageable age, they decisively abandoned Ma Hongjun and married other women.

Even Ma Hongjun's display of his aristocratic and genius status couldn't stop him.

Their statement was very direct.

"A genius like you would marry us?"

"Don't joke around."

"We are just commoners. Even if that day comes, we will be old and faded by then. The promises of you nobles are the least reliable."

This made Ma Hongjun depressed for a long time.

Who says nobles lack integrity?

The nobles of Shrek are all very honest!

Flender... uh, Zhao Wuji... uh, Lu Ning... never mind, at least Ma Hongjun is a man of his word!

The two entered Ma Hongjun's room.

Lu Ning took out the Flame Soul Bone from back then. "This is for you."

Ma Hongjun had forgotten about this matter for some time. He took the Soul Bone without asking why, and simply looked at Lu Ning: "Shall I absorb it now?"

Lu Ning must have had his reasons for not saying anything earlier.

There's no need to ask further.

In any case, Lu Ning had never mistreated him.

"Okay, absorb it now."

Ma Hongjun immediately sat cross-legged and began to absorb the Soul Bone. This Soul Bone was no different from one tailor-made for him, and the absorption process was almost without any obstacles.

Lu Ning stood guard from the side.

The long-lost system voice echoed in my mind.

[When poor, cultivate your own virtue; when rich, benefit all under heaven.]

[Congratulations, host, for achieving the specified condition.]

[The rewards awarded this time are for...]

[80,000-Year Thunder Eagle Right Arm Bone.]

[Description: Taken from an 80,000-year-old Thunder Eagle Soul Beast, suitable for Power Attack System and Agility Attack System Soul Master. When used, it draws upon the power of thunder; its Thunderous Might can destroy all evil spirits. It focuses on enhancing thunder attribute power, Soul Master physique, and speed, with a very small chance of triggering a second evolution of the Martial Soul.]
