Bi Ji's gentle expression was now serious, her emerald green eyes flashing as she said, "The other party has seen through the Lord's identity, but it seems they haven't taken any action yet, and may not have sent the message back to the Divine Realm."
"This suggests that the other party may not harbor much ill will towards the Soul Beast."
"Of course, this doesn't rule out the possibility that he's secretly preparing some kind of scheme."
Bi Ji spoke while thinking, saying everything she could think of.
Gu Yuena became a quiet listener, her beautiful purple eyes occasionally flashing with a sharp light. Many of Bi Ji's words also made her eyes light up, and she thought to herself, "So this is how it can be done."
Seeing Gu Yuena looking somewhat dazed, Bi Ji asked after she finished speaking, "My lord, what do you think?"
Gu Yuena snapped out of her reverie upon hearing this and nodded, saying, "Yes! It's pretty much what I expected."
"Next, we will have a formal exchange with Kong Xuan!"
Bi Ji suggested that since their identities had already been discovered, they should simply communicate with the other party using their true identities.
This finally made Gu Yuena, who had been struggling with the decision for a long time, finally make up her mind.
At this moment, Gu Yuena also felt a sense of relief.
She just felt so good about having someone give her advice.
Bi Ji listened intently to every word Gu Yuena said, and asked with a somewhat stiff expression, "My lord, what do you mean by 'we'?"
A hint of innocence flashed in Gu Yuena's eyes as she said softly, "It means exactly what it says."
Bi Ji's pupils widened little by little. "So... I'm going too?!"
"Um!"
Gu Yuena nodded as if it were the most natural thing in the world.
She thought to herself that since it was Bi Ji who made the suggestion, having Biji around would give her someone to discuss things with if anything happened that she couldn't decide when she met with Kong Xuan.
Bi Ji, however, let out a long sigh and closed her eyes slightly as if accepting the outcome.
Bi Ji, the Ferocious Beast, is about to face a deity whose allegiance is unknown!
Gu Yuena removed the barrier, and the vines around the pavilion slowly receded, allowing Yangguang to fall on the two of them again.
She strode forward, with Bi Ji close behind, and the two walked through the forest path toward the academy's Soul Fighting Zone.
According to Kong Xuan and the others' daily training plan, they should still be in the Soul Fighting Zone during the time Gu Yuena was away.
The Soul Fighting Zone is one of the core training grounds of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy. It is open all day for students to hone their combat skills.
From afar, one could hear the booming sounds of colliding Soul Skill and the shockwaves of energy bursts.
Gu Yuena led Bi Ji into Soul Fighting Arena 218. The two stood in the audience area, their gazes fixed on the Soul Fighting Arena below.
The battle inside the arena is in full swing!
Xu Wei into a thunderbolt, constantly roaming the court at a speed almost imperceptible to the naked eye.
The sun hung high above Kong Ling's head, radiating intense heat.
On the other side, Xu Tianyi's arms were covered with purple-gold dragon scales, and in his Martial Soul Possession state, he had grown to over two meters tall.
Shui Ling remained as composed as ever, standing behind Xu Tianyi with her eyes slightly closed, but her hands constantly manipulating the Puppeteering Spirit Thread to control the entire scene.
Kong Xuan unfurled a pair of almost transparent wings, floating above the battlefield, acting as a referee.
As their Soul Power Level increases, the damage of their Soul Skill also increases, and their attacks become faster.
Kong Xuan, now acting as a referee, dares not relax in the slightest, for fear that a moment's carelessness could lead to a tragedy.
Compared to her initial nervousness, Bi Ji was now much more relaxed, showing no signs of the tension she might feel about facing a deity.
She watched the battle below with great interest and chuckled, "The fighting styles of human Soul Master are quite flashy compared to ten thousand years ago."
Through this period of study, Gu Yuena has gained a deeper understanding of humankind.
She said in a slightly somber tone, "Although human Life is finite, they are the darlings of heaven and earth. The strongest among them can contend with Soul Beast with hundreds of thousands of years of cultivation in just a few decades."
"Moreover, as time goes on, their progress is accelerating. If we do nothing, there will be no place for Soul Beast to survive in the future!"
Bi Ji did not reply, but her heart was heavy, as it concerned the survival of her race.
Her gaze fell upon Kong Xuan in mid-air; she dared not rashly investigate the deity her lord spoke of.
However, judging solely from sensory perception, it did not possess the imposing aura of a deity that I had imagined.
However, his golden pupils possessed a majesty that ordinary humans did not have.
Since it wasn't a life-or-death battle, the fight in the Soul Fighting Arena didn't last long, and it ended with Shui Ling and Xu Tianyi's team emerging victorious.
Kong Xuan controlled the Flying Soul Tool and landed next to Gu Yuena, but his gaze was fixed on Bi Ji beside her.
Listening to Yun Ming's voice in the Sea of Consciousness, Kong Xuan confirmed that this person was indeed the Emerald Swan Bi Ji!
Looking at Kong Xuan, Gu Yuena blurted out the words she had been preparing all the way. "Your Excellency, I think we should have a good talk."
Hearing Gu Yuena address him, Kong Xuan knew that what was coming would eventually arrive.
He nodded first, then walked to the edge of the spectator area and shouted down, "You guys continue, I have to go."
Then he said to Gu Yuena, "Let's go."
Gu Yuena and Bi Ji exchanged a glance and followed Kong Xuan.
On the Soul Fighting Arena, watching Kong Xuan and the others leave, Xu Wei asked curiously, "Who was that person in green just now? He gave off a very special feeling."
Xu Tianyi glanced at him and said coldly, "He came with Gu Yuena, so he's probably an elder from her clan, and likely a powerful figure!"
Xu Wei added, "What I meant by 'special' wasn't her ability."
Kong Ling snorted and said in an unfriendly tone, "Looks like you've really grown up. You think you're special just because you see a beautiful woman?"
" Sister Ling, you're really wronging me!"
Xu Wei said with a wronged expression, "I really feel that she gives me a different feeling, but I can't quite put my finger on it."
At this moment, Shui Ling, who had been silent, spoke up, "Her Life force is very strong; she must be a very powerful healing-type Soul Master."
As Control System Soul Master, Shui Ling is able to control the entire battlefield, and her perception is far superior to that of others.
"Yes, yes, yes!" Xu Wei nodded quickly, "Now that you mention it, I can feel it, it's Life!"
Kong Ling looked up; the three had already left. Her brows furrowed slightly.
Her older brother had left with Gu Yuena again, and she said in a slightly annoyed tone, "Are we still fighting or not?"
"Again!"
Xu Tianyi was eager to try, and Xu Wei and Shui Ling also immediately prepared for battle.
Seeing this, Kong Ling knew she couldn't leave, so she simply put all the chaotic thoughts in her mind out of her head.
"Let's go!"
" Xu Wei, if you lose again this time, you'll be in big trouble!"
Xu Wei trembled upon hearing this. " Sister Ling, I will definitely do my best!"
