"15 years old, level 37 Soul Power, her talent is above average, but only above average. She's far from being a genius, and there's still a big gap between her and that little girl Zhu Zhuqing."
Bone Douluo stared coldly at Dai Mubai, emanating an extremely terrifying aura. Oscar and Ma Hongjun were so frightened that they deliberately lowered their breathing. Zhao Wuji didn't dare to interrupt either; this time, it was Dai Mubai's own fault for being so talkative, and Zhao Wuji didn't want to clean up his mess.
"Your Majesty's reprimand is correct, but I disagree with your claim that Zhu Zhuqing's talent is superior to mine. My Innate Soul Power Innate Soul Power is as high as level 9, while Zhu Zhuqing's is only level 7. Her talent is simply inferior to mine."
Dai Mubai gritted his teeth, raised his head, and retorted to Bone Douluo.
"Heh, is Innate Soul Power level 9 impressive? Innate Soul Power only represents a small part of talent. Putting everything else aside, your current Soul Power is only level 37. Zhu Zhuqing, come on, let this arrogant coward see your current Soul Power."
After mocking Dai Mubai, Bone Douluo ordered Zhu Zhuqing to release her Soul Ring. Zhu Zhuqing coldly looked at Dai Mubai, summoned her Martial Soul, and a purple spirit cat appeared beside her. Immediately afterward, her Soul Ring appeared: yellow, yellow, purple, and purple—four Soul Ring flashing with dazzling light in Dai Mubai's view.
"This, this is impossible! Your Soul Power was only level 27 a few months ago!"
Dai Mubai stared at Zhu Zhuqing in disbelief, his eyes wide open. Only a few months had passed, how could Zhu Zhuqing's Soul Power have directly broken through to the Soul Ancestor?
"What's impossible? As I said, Innate Soul Power only accounts for a small part of talent. You can attribute this little girl's great improvement to luck, but luck is also a part of talent."
Zhu Zhuqing looked at Dai Mubai with an extremely cold and arrogant expression, without uttering any unnecessary words.
"This is impossible!" Dai Mubai's face turned deathly pale. He could tell that Zhu Zhuqing had encountered a great opportunity, which was why her Soul Power had made such a great breakthrough.
Ma Hongjun and Oscar, who were standing next to Zhu Zhuqing, were equally shocked to see that Zhu Zhuqing's Soul Power had reached the Soul Ancestor. They were older than Zhu Zhuqing, but their Soul Power was more than ten levels lower than hers.
"Could this be the work of the Upper Three Sects?" Zhao Wuji exclaimed in agreement. Compared to the students from the Shrek Academy, Zhu Zhuqing was a true monster.
"What's impossible? Dai Mubai, let me tell you, there's nothing between us anymore. Don't try to use my family to bind me. Besides, there's no affection between us. The so-called marriage contract is just a piece of waste paper."
Zhu Zhuqing's words pierced Dai Mubai's heart like a sharp knife. The marriage contract between him and Zhu Zhuqing was a deal between the Dai Family family and the Netherworld Zhu Family. That marriage contract was nothing at all.
Zhu Zhuqing's words thoroughly enraged Dai Mubai. After regaining some of his composure, Dai Mubai clenched his fists, glared angrily at Zhu Zhuqing, and roared, "Let me tell you, Zhu Zhuqing, don't think you've climbed the social ladder just because you've gotten involved with the Upper Three Sects. Sooner or later, you'll face the wrath of the royal family!"
"Heh." Zhu Zhuqing sneered and ignored Dai Mubai.
"Sooner or later, one day you will be subject to the royal family's control."
Ning Rongrong deliberately mimicked what Dai Mubai had just said, making sarcastic remarks about him.
Jun Yi, on the other hand, produced a watermelon and a small stool from somewhere and sat down to enjoy the watermelon.
"What was supposed to be a normal chat suddenly turned into a breakdown, Young Master Dai. You need to work on your stress tolerance."
After saying that, Jun Yi spat out a watermelon seed. Seeing that the show was over, he put away his small stool, Ice Seal the watermelon, and placed it into his Soul Tool.
" Teacher Zhao, we'll be leaving now. This Star Dou Great Forest is quite dangerous, so please be careful. We hope Tang San and Xiao Wu can come back soon."
After exchanging pleasantries, Jun Yi waved to the Shrek group, and then the four of them left together.
After the others left, Dai Mubai finally couldn't hold on any longer and knelt on the ground. Just now, Bone Douluo had been releasing pressure on him, and he had only barely managed to withstand it through his own willpower.
"Damn it! Why does Zhu Zhuqing have such a lucky encounter? Why is my Soul Power increasing so slowly?"
Dai Mubai clenched his fists, his nails digging deep into his flesh. His heart felt like it was being pricked by needles. He was in great pain and anger. Zhu Zhuqing was just an appendage of his royal family. How dare she treat him, Dai Mubai, like this? He, Dai Mubai, was a prince.
Thinking of this, his resentment towards Zhu Zhuqing intensified, and he wished he could execute this arrogant woman on the spot and make her submit to his might.
But reality is cruel; Dai Mubai is just a coward who runs away and has no right to pursue Zhu Zhuqing now.
" Zhu Zhuqing, you just wait!"
Meanwhile, Jun Yi and his group had returned to town. They found a restaurant, went to a private room, and ordered some food to enjoy.
" Jun Yi, I'm very curious why you wouldn't help Xiao Wu when she was dying."
During the meal, Ning Rongrong voiced her doubts. In her eyes, Jun Yi was a meddlesome and Kindness person who would never stand by and watch someone die, especially a beautiful woman like Zhu Zhuqing.
"I've already explained it. I chose to stand by because I was afraid we would encounter danger," Jun Yi replied.
"I don't believe it. How could someone like you, who stops to take a second look at every pretty girl, possibly stand by and watch Xiao Wu die?"
"Forehead..."
Ning Rongrong's words silenced Jun Yi, Jun Yi was at a loss for words.
Bone Douluo was amused by Ning Rongrong's words. He patted Jun Yi on the shoulder and said, " Kid Jun, you should tell Rongrong the truth. She deserves to know."
Hearing this, Jun Yi nodded and explained to Ning Rongrong, "The reason I chose not to rescue Xiao Wu is because she won't encounter any danger at all, especially since the Titan Giant Ape won't even lay a hand on her. Xiao Wu is much, much safer outside in the Star Dou Great Forest."
"Huh? I don't quite understand what you're saying?"
Ning Rongrong was a little confused. She had not studied the knowledge about the transformation of Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, so she could not understand Jun Yi's words.
Zhu Zhuqing seemed to understand something and asked Jun Yi curiously, " Big Brother Jun, do you mean to say that Xiao Wu is not human?"
"Bingo, Zhu Zhuqing, you guessed right. Actually, Xiao Wu is a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soft Bone Rabbit has transformed and cultivated again. She's not human at all."
