Douluo Continent: The Martial Soul Master Ball, Beauty, Please Stay!

Chapter 16 Tang Wutong vs. Huo Yutong! Who is the true princess of the Tang Clan?

"Xiaoya!"

When Beibei saw Tang Ya come out, her face lit up with joy. She brushed aside the green leaves on her head and quickly followed her.

Jiang Yi's appearance and Xiao Ya's unusual behavior undoubtedly amplified his sense of crisis, and he made up his mind.

He didn't want to wait any longer!

He wanted to confess his feelings to Teacher Xiaoya and prove his sincerity.

Xiaoya, I love you!

Beibei clenched her fists, her gaze fixed firmly on the bouncing ponytail, like a calf that had finally mustered its courage.

He was completely unaware that there was another gaze watching him quietly from not far away.

"Oh, you don't have to do that."

An aged sigh suddenly sounded from behind Zhang Lexuan.

Zhang Lexuan turned around and respectfully bowed to the old man who had suddenly appeared.

"Elder Mu!"

"Um."

Mu En nodded slightly, a hint of pity flashing in his cloudy eyes. He looked at Zhang Lexuan and softly comforted her.

"Just consider that agreement as..."

"No! Elder Mu, you don't need to say anything more."

Before Mu En could finish speaking, Zhang Lexuan interrupted him, her gentle eyes now filled with stubbornness.

"I will never forget your kindness. I will protect Shrek Academy for the rest of my life."

Shrek helped her get revenge and gave her the life she has now; she can never forget this kindness.

"Elder Mu, I have some matters to attend to in the inner courtyard, so I will take my leave now."

Zhang Lexuan cupped her hands, turned and left, her back view resolute, yet inexplicably exuding a sense of loneliness.

"Foolish child—"

Moon watched her retreating figure and shook his head helplessly.

He made that promise on a whim back then, and now, as time goes by, he deeply regrets it.

This gratitude has become an obsession for Zhang Lexuan, to the point that it is almost affecting her cultivation.

But when it comes to matters of the heart, there's nothing he can do. Forcing her and Beibei together would probably be bad for both of them.

"I hope you can let go of this soon..."

Moon shook his head, preparing to go back to lie down, but the next moment, a loud roar erupted from the dormitory building.

"You wild country bumpkin! How dare you?"

Moon looked up and immediately rubbed his temples, feeling a headache coming on.

This little rascal...

……

On the fourth floor, there is a dormitory room.

The two girls were staring at each other, or more accurately, the girl in pink and blue was the one who was sulking.

"I thought you were going to play me—but you're not—isn't that playing me?"

Tang Wutong stood with her hands on her hips, her pinkish-blue eyes filled with anger, and her beautiful long hair fluttered slightly with excitement.

She had been putting up with this country bumpkin for a long time. Not only did she peep at her while she was taking a bath, but she also smelled terrible.

Faced with Tang Wutong's accusations, Huo Yutong, who had been silent all along, finally raised her head.

"If you want to fight, just say so."

Huo Yutong's face was cold.

Although she didn't want to cause trouble, was the other person even speaking human language?

I was just sitting quietly on the bed folding clothes, not bothering or provoking anyone, so why was I being targeted?

If she continues to tolerate this, the other party will probably pin her to the ground and humiliate her. This is intolerable.

"Hmph! Here we go!"

Tang Wutong's eyes lit up, and she eagerly rolled up her sleeves, turning around and walking outside first.

Finally, someone will fight her! No one in the divine realm would fight her.

However, Huo Yutong only glanced at her, remaining seated on the bed unmoved, and did not follow.

"What? Are you scared?"

Tang Wutong stopped in her tracks, turned around and smiled contemptuously, her chin slightly raised.

"A month's worth of food expenses."

Huo Yutong spoke calmly, without even raising her head, and continued folding the clothes slowly and methodically.

This fight can't be fought for nothing.

"Fine! But I won, so I don't want your money for the meal—"

Tang Wutong readily agreed, a sly glint in her pink-blue eyes.

"I just want you to get out of this dorm room."

She was only here to gain experience and didn't want to develop any friendships or ties with these mortals.

According to her two uncles, the Douluo Continent has been enveloped by a spacetime turbulence, and her father can no longer take care of her for the time being.

That way she can have some fun here and won't have to be under that old man's control anymore.

"good!"

Huo Yutong nodded calmly, finally put down the clothes in her hand, and stood up.

Two girls left the dormitory one after the other and came to an open space next to the dormitory building.

Sunlight streamed onto the lawn, a gentle breeze blew, and a few birds flew by in the distance—it was a perfect day for a fight.

"Come on! I'll let you have a go first."

Tang Wutong chuckled and beckoned to Huo Yutong with her finger.

She had suffered a lot of anger during the entrance exam, and now she had a perfect outlet for it.

Faced with the provocation, Huo Yutong did not show much emotional fluctuation, as she had suffered too much discrimination in the Duke's mansion.

call out--

Huo Yutong flicked her toe, and a small pebble on the ground flew up and hit Tang Wutong squarely in the chest.

With its bouncy curve, Tang Wutong didn't even need to lift a finger to send the pebble flying.

It doesn't cause much harm, but it's extremely insulting!

Then, Huo Yutong took a proper stance, and a yellow spirit ring rose from her body.

"bring it on!"

One move and it's over!

Tang Wutong was naturally quick to explode at such provocation.

"Good! Very good!"

Enraged, Tang Wutong immediately slid in and charged towards Huo Yutong on the opposite side.

She didn't use her martial soul, but even so, her speed far exceeded that of an average first-ring soul master.

In the blink of an eye, she was in front of Huo Yutong and swept her leg across the room.

However, Huo Yutong struck first despite being behind, landing a precise palm strike on her thigh joint.

"hiss--"

Tang Wutong gasped.

A strange, tingling sensation spread, and the powerful kick instantly lost its strength.

"How is that possible?"

She frowned, refusing to believe it, and spun around in mid-air, delivering another roundhouse kick aimed at Huo Yutong's waist.

But with the same result, Huo Yutong delivered another light, effortless palm strike.

Tang Wutong's right leg suddenly felt as if all its strength had been drained, causing her to lose her balance.

boom!

Taking advantage of the situation, Huo Yutong thrust out a palm, striking Tang Wutong squarely on the shoulder.

Tang Wutong was sent flying backward, her back slamming heavily onto the lawn, kicking up a cloud of grass clippings.

"Cough cough..."

Tang Wutong coughed lightly, and was about to get up when she was horrified to find that her legs were not responding at all.

"What...what did you do to me?"

She suddenly raised her head and looked at Huo Yutong who was walking towards her, a look of panic appearing in her eyes for the first time.

No one has ever made her feel so embarrassed before, from childhood to adulthood.

You lost.

Huo Yutong walked over, looked down at her, and spoke calmly.

She originally thought it would be a tough battle, but she didn't expect this person to be so careless, not even activating his martial spirit.

"..."

Tang Wutong fell silent.

She looked at Huo Yutong and realized that the other's eyes had turned into a dazzling gold, and that eerie gaze seemed to see through everything about her.

First Soul Skill: Eye of True Sight!

This soul skill is not as good as Tianmeng's mental detection, but it has its own unique advantages, especially after Huo Yutong came into contact with the Tang Sect's secret techniques.

With the ability to see through the opponent's soul power operation, and by utilizing the Tang Sect's exquisite hidden weapon techniques, Huo Yutong discovered that she could easily break most people's soul skills.

The phrase "to deal with whatever comes her way" has become a tangible embodiment in her.

"You win."

Tang Wutong gritted her teeth, but still reached out and tossed her meal card to Huo Yutong in front of her.

Although it was her carelessness that led to her not even activating her martial spirit, she didn't want to make any excuses for herself.

Given the opponent's bizarre abilities, even if she went all out, she might not be able to gain any advantage.

"Thanks!"

Huo Yutong caught the meal card, and upon seeing the balance on it, the coldness on her face vanished instantly, replaced by a smile.

And he's a rich, powerful scoundrel!

She thought for a moment, then squatted down and withdrew the soul power she had injected into Tang Wutong's inner thigh muscles.

At least they paid...

"Hmm? All done?"

Tang Wutong instantly felt her legs regain feeling and stared in surprise.

How did you do that?

But Huo Yutong had already turned and left. She blinked, her curiosity ultimately overcoming her pride.

"Feed? Is that your soul skill?"

She got up from the lawn, brushed the grass clippings off her skirt, and followed.

"no."

"What is that?"

"secret."

"Tell me, and I'll give you two months' worth of food money..."

"Well, actually it's..."

The two girls returned to the dormitory building one after the other, and the atmosphere became somewhat more harmonious.

……

First floor, dormitory 110.

Jiang Yi sat at the table, flipping through the Xuan Tian Bao Lu in his hand.

Since Tang Ya had already given it to him, there was no reason not to look at it. Jiang Yi wasn't that pedantic; getting something for free wasn't really getting something for free.

As everyone knows, time travelers have no credibility.

"So much less?"

Jiang Yi shook his head, somewhat speechless.

This book, the Xuan Tian Bao Lu, only contains some basic techniques for using hidden weapons.

Those advanced hidden weapons, such as the Buddha's Wrath Lotus and Guanyin's Tears, are only mentioned in a few words of legend.

If someone could cultivate this skill on their own, they would be a god.

Moreover, the most important chapter on poisons is missing; its contents were discovered by later generations through tasting poisons themselves.

No wonder the Tang Clan declined.

"Well, it's better than nothing."

Jiang Yi closed the book, but instead of practicing the Mysterious Heaven Technique, he pinched his nose hard and squeezed out two tears.

He reached out and grabbed Tianmeng, who was still fast asleep inside the Master Ball.

"Hmm? What is it now? I told you, don't disturb my sleep if there's nothing wrong."

Tianmeng yawned without even opening her eyes, clearly having had a good sleep.

But the next moment, she suddenly opened her eyes.

"What...what's wrong with you?"

Tianmeng blinked, looked at Jiang Yi in front of her with bloodshot eyes, and her tone changed abruptly.

Who bullied my master?

After all, this is Shrek Academy, and in order to avoid being noticed by others, she rarely takes the initiative to explore the outside world.

"It's alright, Tianmeng."

Jiang Yi shook his head, wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, and handed over the Xuan Tian Bao Lu in his hand.

"Didn't you say you didn't have any methods of mental attack? I've found them for you, this is the legendary inheritance of the Sea God..."

His voice was seven parts hoarse, three parts joyful, and a trace of fatigue.

"Jiang Yi..."

Seeing this, Tianmeng could no longer help but understand... what kind of shady deal Jiang Yi had made for her sake!

The legacy of the Sea God—how precious that must be!

Unexpectedly, Jiang Yi had kept her casual remark to himself and even went to get it for her in secret...

"Waaaaah—Jiang Yi, I didn't misjudge you!!!"

Tianmeng was so moved that tears streamed down her face.

She transformed back into her blonde little girl form, buried her face in Jiang Yi's arms, and cried like a three-year-old child.

"From now on, if you sleep in my arms, I promise I'll turn back into human form... and I won't kick you anymore... Waaaaah..."

"Sister Tianmeng, as long as you're happy!"

Jiang Yi gently hugged the little girl in his arms, his gaze subtly glancing at the system panel.

[Intimacy Level: 40%, 41%...52%...60%...]

Jiang Yi smiled with relief.

Greatness needs no further explanation!
