Chapter 71: Battle with Qian Renxue
"Alright, I'll send someone to notify Fan'er to return to the sect. Anyway, he's almost graduated, and he's already familiarized himself with the connections he needs. There's no need for him to waste time in the Heaven Dou Academy anymore."
Ning Fengzhi immediately accepted his younger son's suggestion and ordered someone to notify Ning Fan.
At this moment, Ning Rongrong, who was beside him, stared at everyone with a puffed-up expression.
"Did the duck I was about to eat just fly away?"
"Are you treating me like a sick cat? I won't act like a spoiled brat, but you guys are really pushing me too far, aren't you?"
With these thoughts in mind, the little girl immediately lay down on the ground, crying loudly. Her cries were so deafening that anyone who heard them would be brought to tears, and anyone who saw her would feel heartbroken. While crying, she was still talking back.
"Rongrong is like a neglected wildflower, you never think of me when there are benefits to be had."
"I want to quit the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and join the Blue Electric Tyrannosaurus Sect."
"Waaahhh."
The four of them looked at Ning Rongrong, who was lying on the ground and refusing to get up, with black lines on their faces. Then, Ning Fengzhi and the other two helplessly turned their eyes to Ning Bei.
"Alright, show her!"
Ning Bei sighed lightly, then walked over to Ning Rongrong.
"Huh, whose child is this? She looks so ugly when she cries!"
"Hmph, wahhh wahhh."
Seeing this wasn't working, Ning Bei pulled out another plan.
"It seems like Rongrong doesn't want the Qiluo Yujinxiang anymore, Father, let's have Big Brother use the celestial herb instead."
After speaking, Ning Bei looked toward Ning Fengzhi.
The old fox immediately understood and cleared his throat.
"I think that's a good idea. It's better than wasting the celestial herb on a girl who just knows how to cry."
Ning Rongrong, who had been lying on the ground, now looked around with her eyes rolling. Although she didn't know what the Qiluo Yujinxiang was, she could tell from its name that it was something good.
She immediately got up and gave Ning Bei and Ning Fengzhi a flattering look.
"Brother, Father, who said Rongrong only knows how to cry? I've been working hard in my cultivation too, alright? I'm already almost at level 26. By the end of this year, I'll definitely break through to the Soul Sect level."
"You see, you should give the Qiluo Yujinxiang to me."
The four of them couldn't help but laugh at how quickly the little girl's mood had changed.
"Ugh, you guys are so annoying, always picking on me."
Ning Rongrong pouted as she saw them laughing at her.
After testing his soul bone skill, Ning Bei returned to his room and summoned Ah Zhu .
"Big Brother, what's the matter? If it's for you, I'll do anything!"
Ning Bei gave her a black line look. Was this the little demon's weird sense of humor?
"I've just obtained a 100,000-year soul bone skill that can purify bloodlines. Now, I want to try if it can help soul beasts purify their bloodlines."
After hearing Ning Bei's explanation, Ah Zhu 's playful expression disappeared, and she looked at him excitedly.
"Are you saying that my bloodline can still evolve?"
"Yes, let's see if we can improve your bloodline to the level of the Human-faced Spider King."
"Then why are we still waiting? Let's do it now, I'll do anything!"
Seeing the little demon still not forgetting to tease him, Ning Bei shook his head in helplessness.
Without wasting more words, he placed his right hand directly on Ah Zhu 's forehead. A brilliant white light filled the entire room.
"Ugh..."
The power seemed to have a greater effect on soul beasts. Ah Zhu 's aura instantly grew a little stronger.
After a while, the light faded.
Ah Zhu opened her eyes excitedly.
"It really worked, I can feel my bloodline boiling."
"That's good!"
As one of the earliest soul beasts to follow him, Ah Zhu had never had access to top-tier resources because of Ah Bao 's existence. Now that he could help her, Ning Bei was very happy.
After fully understanding his purification ability, Ning Bei began his assistant-like life.
After several bloodline purifications, Ning Fan's cultivation had made significant progress. He estimated that in about half a year, the effects would start to show in his Martial Soul.
At that time, if Rongrong were to ascend to the divine realm, leaving Ning Fan as the sect master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect would be a great choice. As for becoming the sect master himself, he had never considered it—just looking at Ning Fengzhi, who was always busy, made him reconsider.
Today, Ning Bei planned to head to Heaven Dou City to provide Qian Renxue with some foundation-building spiritual liquid.
The first batch of children she selected had already undergone their Martial Soul awakening, and the results were as expected—all of them had reached innate level 5.
Upon Ning Bei's arrival, Qian Renxue's eyes lit up with excitement.
"Your foundation-building spiritual liquid is truly effective. In a few decades, this batch of children will all likely reach Soul King level."
Ning Bei smiled but didn't let the praise from Qian Renxue go to his head.
After having dinner together and handing her the pills, Ning Bei was ready to return home.
At that moment, Qian Renxue issued a challenge.
"Ning Bei, would you like to spar with me?"
"Huh? Are you sure?"
"Yes, just like you did with that Darkgolden Terrorclaw Bear."
After the blow she received last time, Qian Renxue had been training hard over the past two years. With the help of Ning Bei's pills, she had successfully broken through to the Soul Emperor realm.
Her power increase had given her more confidence, and she was eager to challenge Ning Bei once again.
Ning Bei thought to himself, "You probably think the Darkgolden Terrorclaw Bear still has the same cultivation as two years ago. But since you're eager to offer the challenge, I won't refuse."
"Alright, where do we go?"
Qian Renxue, excited by Ning Bei's acceptance of the challenge, replied, "Follow me."
The two arrived in a forest on the outskirts of the Heaven Dou Empire. Qian Renxue immediately removed her disguise and revealed her true form.
At nearly twenty years old, she was in the prime of her beauty, even more so than three years ago.
Her stunning beauty made Ning Bei pause for a moment.
His reaction pleased Qian Renxue. After all, no woman was indifferent to her appearance.
"Hey, stop staring, let's begin."
Saying this, she activated her Martial Soul, and three pairs of golden wings appeared behind her. Two yellow, two purple, and two black—six soul rings materialized on her body.
Ning Bei turned his gaze away, thinking to himself, "I haven't visited Dugu Yan for a while. My focus is slipping."
The Dan Tower appeared, and in the next moment, Ah Bao appeared before him.
Of course, Ah Bao appeared in his beast form. The mysteries of the Shape-shifting Pills were still something Ning Bei didn't want to reveal.
"Ah Bao , play with her. Don't go too hard."
"Roar!"
Ah Bao growled and signaled that he understood.
Qian Renxue was enraged as she heard the exchange between Ning Bei and the beast.
What's going on? Are they not even going to avoid me while deliberately holding back? How much do they look down on me?
"Hmph, I don't need you to go easy on me! Angelic Roar!"
The sixth black soul ring surged, and a roar filled with energy was unleashed from her mouth. Ah Bao 's massive body trembled slightly.
"Angelic Charge!"
The scene from three years ago repeated. The energy sword in her hand shattered into countless light spots when it touched Ah Bao 's skin, dissipating into nothing.
Then, Ah Bao retracted his claws and swiped a bear paw at the little angel.
"Ah!"
Once again, Qian Renxue was knocked back several dozen meters, landing in a messy heap.
After a few seconds, Qian Renxue, who had climbed up from the ground, stared in disbelief.
"It's impossible, why hasn't the gap narrowed at all? Instead..."
Ning Bei, from a distance, shrugged.
"Don't doubt yourself. At least you've made progress in your understanding."

Chapter 72: The Return of Bibi Dong
At this moment, a dark figure suddenly appeared in front of the little angel, looking at Ning Bei with a fierce expression.
"Kid, you deserve to die for daring to make a move on the young master."
Ning Bei glanced at the figure in front of him and immediately recognized it as one of the twin generals, Snake Spear Douluo.
He rolled his eyes.
"I'm just standing here without moving, where did you see me make a move?"
Seeing that he still dared to argue, Snake Spear was immediately enraged.
"You—"
Before he could say anything further, Qian Renxue, who had been sitting behind, stood up and brushed the dust off her clothes, interrupting him.
"Enough, Uncle Snake Spear. It's not his fault. I asked her to fight me in a soul fight."
"But—"
"No buts. Do you want me to lose face?"
"I understand, young master."
Qian Renxue nodded, then looked at Ning Bei with a complex expression.
"Your battle pet has grown stronger."
Ning Bei smiled and said, "I can't let you get stronger by yourself while everyone else stays stagnant, right?"
"I won't give up. Once I get stronger, I'll come to challenge you again."
Hearing the little angel's words, Ning Bei felt a strange feeling in his heart. Does she have a masochistic tendency? Otherwise, why would she want to keep challenging me?
The two of them returned to Heaven Dou City. After saying their goodbyes, Ning Bei set off on his way back.
It was the same familiar empty street. That authoritative female voice sounded once again.
"You're really a monster! The last time I saw you, your Darkgolden Terrorclaw Bear had just barely reached the 10,000-year level. Now it has reached the 50,000-year cultivation. Even I would have to exert some effort to defeat it."
Ning Bei looked into the depths of the forest, where a figure wrapped in a black cloak emerged. It was none other than Bibi Dong.
"What's going on? Are you here to see the little angel again?"
Bibi Dong frowned slightly. What's so interesting about her? Do I need to come all the way here just to look at her? One glance last time was enough.
"I came to find you. The medicine is used up."
"Alright, now I've become your mother and daughter's medicine jar."
Bibi Dong seemed to ignore Ning Bei's sarcasm and extended her delicate hand toward him.
"How is your soul?"
After handing the medicine to Bibi Dong, Ning Bei asked.
"It's much better than before. In about a year, I will be completely free from the troubles of the Rakshasa God."
"I've inquired about Tang Hao and his son. It's true that this happened, and I plan to act first!"
"Huh?"
Ning Bei was stunned for a moment after hearing Bibi Dong's words. She's starting to act now?
"I think there's no need to rush. Right now, Tang San still has the fortune of the Douluo Continent. Even if your actions succeed, it would be more troublesome if the Rakshasa God switches to another piece."
Bibi Dong thought for a moment and then looked at Ning Bei with her beautiful eyes.
"So, what do you mean?"
"Three years from now, I will prepare a big move for them. At that time, you can join in."
"If you go find them now, there's a high chance that Tang Hao will sense it and escape with his son."
"Three years later, we will first eliminate Tang Hao, and then the rest will depend on me."
After thinking for a while, Bibi Dong nodded in agreement with Ning Bei's suggestion.
"Then, it depends on you. For Tang Hao, I don't have the confidence to kill him in one strike. If he escapes into the deep mountains with his son, it would indeed be troublesome."
"Mm, just wait and see."
After agreeing on the plan, Bibi Dong had accomplished her goal and planned to take her leave. The matters of the Spirit Hall were more numerous than those of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
At this moment, Ning Bei thought of his little bunny at home. She and this Pope had an irreconcilable feud. He needed to find a way to resolve it. He called out to Bibi Dong, who was already turning to leave.
"Pope, did you hunt a 100,000-year-old Softbone Rabbit?"
"Huh?"
Bibi Dong turned around, looking at Ning Bei curiously. She wasn't surprised that he knew about her soul ring absorption situation. After all, it seemed that he knew everything about her. However, she was puzzled why he suddenly brought this up.
"It seems that the soul bone of that Softbone Rabbit didn't do much for you. If I can find a suitable soul bone for you, would you be willing to trade?"
Bibi Dong pondered for a moment and then agreed to Ning Bei's request.
"Alright, if you can find a suitable 100,000-year soul bone for me, I will trade the Softbone Rabbit soul bone with you."
Hearing her agreement, Ning Bei was very happy. Another problem solved.
"By the way, which part of the soul bone was it?"
"Left arm bone!"
"Got it. When I find the soul bone, I'll come to trade with you."
After bidding farewell to Bibi Dong, Ning Bei returned to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and summoned his little bunny.
Xiao Wu, holding a candied fruit in her left hand and cotton candy in her right, skipped toward Ning Bei.
"Big Brother Ning Bei, what's up? I bought so many snacks with Rongrong, but haven't had the chance to eat them yet!"
Ning Bei looked at the little bunny with a black line on his face. This carefree little thing—while I'm busy solving problems for your mother, you're not even worried.
"Have you taken care of your mother's body?"
Upon hearing about her mother, Xiao Wu's mood immediately sank. The candied fruit and cotton candy in her hands didn't taste as sweet anymore.
"I've already handled it. It's buried beside Big Ming and Second Ming's place. Why do you ask, Big Brother Ning Bei?"
"I might have a way to revive your mother, but I need her body and soul bone."
After hearing this, Xiao Wu's ears drooped.
"My mother's soul bone was taken by that bad woman. It can't be recovered."
"You don't need to worry about that. Leave the soul bone to me. Just make sure to preserve your mother's body."
Seeing that Ning Bei didn't seem like he was lying, Xiao Wu's eyes immediately lit up.
"Really? Thank you, Big Brother Ning Bei! I'll have Big Ming take me to bring back my mother's body."
Ning Bei waved his hand. "You can bring it back, but the resurrection won't be possible for a while. Just letting you know in advance."
Xiao Wu felt a little down again, as she couldn't see her mother right away, but thinking about the hope made her feel better.
"I understand, Big Brother Ning Bei."
"You need to focus on your cultivation. Stop messing around with Rongrong all the time. You see, Long Nianbing and Ye Yinzhuhave already broken through to Soul Sect, and their innate soul power is even lower than yours and Rongrong's!"
Xiao Wu quickly ran outside, calling back as she ran, "Got it, got it! I'll keep an eye on Rongrong and make sure she focuses on her cultivation."
Ning Bei watched the little bunny bounce away, shaking his head helplessly.
In the days that followed, while Ning Bei was focused on his cultivation, he also kept an eye on the growth of the herbs in the Dan Tower.
He noticed that the first herb he placed inside, the Snake Heart Herb, seemed to have undergone a transformation. Its leaves had turned from purple to dark golden, and faint traces of dragon aura could be seen emanating from it.
It seemed that this herb could no longer be called the Snake Heart Herb—it was more appropriate to call it the Dragon Heart Herb.
Thinking of Dugu Yan's Martial Soul, Ning Bei smiled faintly. This herb would definitely be of great help to her now.

Chapter 73: Evolution of the Green Scaled Poison Dragon
The next day, Ning Bei invited Dugu Yan to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. As for why he didn't go directly to the Sunset Forest to find her, well, he had more opportunities at home than there.
When the woman arrived at Ning Bei's room, she curiously looked at him.
"Ah Bei, why did you call me here? Don't tell me you want to show me the luminous soul bone again? It's broad daylight, that's not very appropriate."
Ning Bei couldn't help but roll his eyes. Is that really how you see me? Though it's true that I was thinking about it, that's not the main thing, okay? He made a wounded expression.
"Yan Zi, is that how you think of me? You're disappointing me. I called you here to give you a long-prepared gift!"
Dugu Yan looked at him skeptically, then extended her delicate hand.
"Really? Let me see it."
Ning Bei felt that today he must change the woman's impression of him, so he summoned the Dan Tower and took out the Dragon Heart Herb. Of course, he also took the seeds and put them back into the Dan Tower for cultivation. In the future, he wanted to try giving it to the Sky Blue Bull Python to see if it had any effect!
"Here, this is the Dragon Heart Herb. It can give serpent-type martial souls or soul beasts the possibility of evolution."
Dugu Yan's beautiful eyes widened as she looked at the dark gold herb in Ning Bei's hand.
"Really? You're amazing, Ah Bei!"
She immediately jumped onto him and planted a kiss on his face.
"Mua! Ah Bei, if my martial soul evolves again, wouldn't I become a Green Scaled Poison Dragon?"
Ning Bei supported her waist with both hands and nodded at her.
"In my plan, that's exactly what will happen. Quickly take it and see, we'll shock the old man later."
"Haha, Grandpa will definitely be shocked when he finds out! I'm so excited! But it needs to work, this herb must be useful."
"No worries, trying it won't cause any harm, only benefits. Even if your martial soul doesn't evolve, it will still increase your soul power level."
Dugu Yan nodded, then separated from Ning Bei and held the Dragon Heart Herb in her hand.
"Should I eat it directly?"
"Yes, just eat it directly."
The woman summoned her martial soul, and a green-scaled serpent with small horns appeared behind her.
Sitting cross-legged, she placed the Dragon Heart Herb in her mouth and began to close her eyes to refine the herb's power.
Ning Bei stood to the side, slowly admiring Dugu Yan's graceful figure. He couldn't help but feel that, after his hard work, her body had become even more stunning than before. It seems that once she absorbs the immortal herb, he would have to show her the luminous soul bone as well.
Time passed slowly as Dugu Yan absorbed the Dragon Heart Herb. It might take more than a moment, possibly even several days, since it involved the evolution of her martial soul.
Ning Bei sent someone to the Sunset Forest to inform Dugu Bo that his granddaughter was absorbing the immortal herb, so the old man wouldn't worry.
Ning Bei then shifted his focus to purifying the bloodlines of Ah Zhu and Ning Fan.
After half a month of purification, Ning Fan's cultivation had reached the 54th-level Soul King. After this, his progress started to slow down. Ning Bei estimated that it was because the power of his bloodline was starting to affect his martial soul, and after a few more sessions, they should see results.
As for Ah Zhu , the benefits she gained were more direct. The toxicity of her spider poison had increased, and her speed had become more ghostly. Ning Bei estimated that she now had the speed of a typical Title Douluo, of course, when she used her Spider God possession.
Two days later, Dugu Yan finally completed the absorption of the immortal herb. The green-scaled serpent behind her began to change. The small horns on its head began to grow larger, doubling in size. Its body was now covered in green scales, and sharp claws emerged from its chest and abdomen. All of these changes signified that the green-scaled serpent was evolving into the Green Scaled Poison Dragon.
After a while, Dugu Yan opened her bright green eyes, and a low dragon roar emerged from behind her.
"Roar!!"
Ning Bei was filled with joy upon seeing this.
"Congratulations, Yan Zi! Your martial soul has really evolved into a Green Scaled Poison Dragon."
Dugu Yan was obviously very excited as well. The benefits of this evolution weren't just about the enhanced toxicity; all of her soul skills would also become more powerful. Moreover, her soul power had made great progress. In just three years, she had reached the 55th-level Soul King, and now she had broken through the Soul King boundary. She only needed to obtain another soul ring to become a Soul Emperor.
"Thank you, Ah Bei."
The woman once again threw herself at Ning Bei and started kissing his face wildly.
At that moment, Ning Bei, in his thirsty age, couldn't take it anymore.
"Yan Zi, I have another gift for you."
Dugu Yan, clearly unaware of the severity of the situation, foolishly asked:
"What is it? Didn't you say the Dragon Heart Herb was a gift you've been preparing for a long time?"
"Yes! This next gift I've also prepared for a long time. There are several hundred million of them!"
Dugu Yan froze for a moment.
??? What could it be that there are that many?
Ning Bei didn't care about her confusion. He picked up the dazed woman and began walking toward the inner room.
"The next gift is the luminous soul bone you've been waiting for. How about it? Isn't your man treating you well!"
As he spoke, he used his foot to close the door behind him.
At this point, Dugu Yan had clearly realized that she had fallen for it again.
"Get lost, you scoundrel! Trying to be mischievous again!!"
"How can this be mischief? Stop yelling, you'll shout your throat hoarse."
"Mmm! Mmm!"
The morning sun shone into the room. The man and woman, who had spent the whole night together, were now sleeping in each other's arms, showing no sign of getting up.
It was the same familiar knocking sound that woke the two of them.
"Big Brother, Big Brother, come with me and Xiao Wu to visit Seven Treasure City today!"
"That's right, Big Brother Ning Bei, we're so bored just staying in the sect, hurry up and get up!"
Ning Bei opened his sealed eyes helplessly and exchanged a look with the graceful figure beside him.
The two of them began searching for their clothes.
Suddenly, Ning Bei felt a kick on his butt.
Turning around, he saw Dugu Yan holding some scraps of cloth and glaring at him angrily.
"You idiot, why are you tearing things apart? This is top-quality fabric from a clothing shop in Heaven Dou City."
Ning Bei scratched his head, embarrassed at his handiwork.
"I'll take you to visit Seven Treasure City later. Seven Treasure Clothing's clothes are pretty nice. Today, everything will be on me, Young Master Ning."
"Hmph!"
Accepting Ning Bei's offer, Dugu Yan took out a set of clothes from her soul tool, clearly prepared before coming to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
The two of them got dressed and opened the "bang, bang" creaking door. Outside, the two little girls were already waiting eagerly.
"Big Brother Ning Bei, you're really slow. Rongrong puts on her skirt faster than you!"
Ning Rongrong rolled her eyes to the side. Why are you making fun of him? What did that have to do with me?
Ning Bei sighed. "Of course, I'm fast alone, but I have to wear clothes for two people!"
Then, the two of them exchanged a knowing glance, staring at Dugu Yan next to her brother and winking.
This made Dugu Yan immediately turn into a steam-powered princess, and her iron hands quickly grabbed Ning Bei's waist.
She gave him a good experience of her self-created soul skill, the "Divine Pinch Douluo."

Chapter 74: Seven Treasure Soul Battle Arena
Ning Bei, who was caught by the three women, had a thorough experience of what it was like to be a human pack mule.
Fortunately, he had a storage soul tool, otherwise, he would have had to consider whether to pull out a few soul beasts to act as his laborers.
He had often heard his friends complain about their girlfriends or mothers who would spend the whole day shopping without buying anything.
However, these three were different. It didn't matter whether the items were useful or not; as long as they caught their eye, they'd take them.
The group shopped from morning till evening, only stopping when they finally became hungry, marking the end of their shopping spree.
Behind them, Ning Bei was mentally exhausted. Despite his enhanced body from the immortal herbs and whale gum, along with his 76th-level soul power, he could barely handle the pace.
When it came to shopping, these women were at the level of Title Douluo.
They found a restaurant, and the group ordered a large feast to satisfy their hunger.
"Rongrong, my shoes are still a bit lacking. After we eat, let's go check out the Seven Treasure Shoe Shop again!"
"Mm, that sounds good! I also want to see if Master Naike has any new items. Yan Zi, are you coming with us after eating?"
"Sure, we'll make it quick!"
Ning Bei stood there, dumbfounded, as the three women quickly made plans to go shopping again after eating. Inside, he felt like a thousand alpacas were running through his mind.
"Are you serious? My legs are about to give out!"
The three women looked at him with disdain.
"How many people would love to shop with three beautiful women like us and never get the chance? I advise you not to be ungrateful."
In the end, Ning Bei couldn't escape his fate of continuing as their pack mule, but thankfully, Xiao Wu got distracted by the conversations of some passersby while they were shopping.
"I heard there's a Soul King team aiming for a 20-win streak at the Seven Treasure Soul Battle Arena today. Want to check it out?"
"I heard about it too! They seem to have a martial soul fusion technique. Let's go see!"
Xiao Wu's ears perked up, and she overheard the conversation.
"Rongrong, let's go check it out! If they're really that strong, we could form a team and try it out ourselves."
Ning Rongrong's eyes lit up as she heard Xiao Wu's words. She also found the idea very interesting.
"Yes, yes, let's go."
Without greeting Dugu Yan and Ning Bei behind them, the two of them took each other's hands and rushed toward the Seven Treasure Soul Battle Arena.
Ning Bei secretly sighed with relief. No matter what, at least this terrible shopping trip was finally over.
"Are you interested, Yan Zi? Should we go check it out too?"
"Mm, let's go!"
This was Ning Bei's first time at a Soul Battle Arena in the Douluo World, and it felt a bit fresh to him.
When the four of them entered the arena, they found the stands were already packed with spectators. It seemed like the team aiming for 20 wins in a row was quite popular.
Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong went to the front desk to sign up for a two-person soul battle, calling themselves the Seven Treasure Enchantress Bunny duo.
Ning Bei had a headache watching the two of them act so recklessly. Surely, the 20-win streak team had some real skill. What if they ended up hitting a wall?
But the two girls didn't care what Ning Bei thought. They'd already signed up, so whatever.
Above the battle stage, a host was already warming up the crowd using a flying soul tool. Ning Bei couldn't help but think of a child who had recently awakened in the sect. His martial soul was a microphone. It seemed like there would be a job for him in the future.
"Alright, welcome everyone to the Seven Treasure Soul Battle Arena's competition today. Our seed contestants, the Snowfield Twin Combo, are eagerly awaiting their 20th win. Let's cheer them on!"
"Let's give a warm round of applause for Nunu and Willem!"
As the host announced, a giant man, about three meters tall, walked onto the stage, followed by a small man who was only about one meter tall.
Ning Bei couldn't help but smile. This was the cutest height difference he had ever seen.
"Now, let's welcome their opponents, the Axe Gang Combo!"
Two men in black suits appeared on stage, looking extremely arrogant, as if they didn't consider the tall and short duo in front of them.
"Tch, Snowfield Twins? The Axe Gang Duo will easily crush you."
The tall and short duo in front of them didn't get angry. Instead, they smiled and waved their fingers at their opponents.
The Axe Gang duo immediately became furious.
Both men summoned axes, and their soul rings appeared—white, yellow, yellow—the same configuration, with six soul rings in total.
The short man looked at his partner.
"Willem, we're going."
"Mm."
The giant man named Willem immediately entered his martial soul possession state. A snow-white snowman appeared behind him, with three soul rings—yellow, yellow, purple—shining in sequence.
Seeing their soul ring configuration was superior to theirs, the Axe Gang duo frowned, and a bad feeling flashed in their minds. But since they had already come here, they couldn't just surrender. They braced themselves and started using their soul skills.
"Spinning Axe!"
"Great Massacre!"
One of them threw his axe at the snowman giant, while the other charged at him. His axe grew huge and spun around his body as he slashed at the snowman.
Willem wasn't flustered by their attack. His third soul ring lit up, and a furious roar echoed.
"Frost Shock!"
The enormous shockwave sent the charging man flying off the stage, and the giant axe was also sent flying, disappearing into the distance.
The man who had thrown the axe looked at his comrade, who was unconscious on the stage, his face turning pale as he raised his arm.
"We surrender!"
The audience erupted into angry shouts. There are always some opportunists who bet against the odds in a competition, but now, seeing the Axe Gang duo defeated in one exchange, they were furious, and the insults began.
The host immediately announced the result.
"Alright, the Snowfield Twins have successfully secured their 20th consecutive victory. How far can they extend their winning streak? Let's wait and see."
After the announcement, the host glanced at his notes.
"Next up, we have a beautiful girl duo, the Seven Treasure Enchantress Bunny Combo, made up of Soul King Xiao Wu and Great Soul Master Ning Rongrong. Will they be able to take on the Snowfield Twins?"
Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong hurriedly walked to the arena when their names were called.
Ning Bei, watching from the side, wondered if he should step in and save them if they ended up losing. At most, he'd stop coming to the Soul Battle Arena in the future.
The audience laughed as they saw two little girls stepping onto the stage.
"Are these two kids here to make us laugh?"
"No, they're betting that the Snowfield Twins won't fight against women and children."
"I'm all in on the Snowfield Twins. Even if they're mosquitoes, they're still worth something!"
When the host confirmed both sides were ready, he announced the start of the battle.
Nunu, the short man, saw the two little girls on stage and couldn't hide his disdain.
"Little kids, you should hurry up and leave before you get beaten and start crying."

Chapter 75: Soul Battle, Martial Soul Fusion Technique
Ning Rongrong, seeing how the little shorty was underestimating both her and Xiao Wu, was so angry that her fur practically grew. She stamped her foot and pointed a single finger at the opponent.
"You're the one who looks more like a little kid! You're barely taller than my shoulder and still have the nerve to laugh at us."
"Exactly, exactly!" Xiao Wu nodded along in agreement, always eager for chaos.
Nunu's face darkened immediately. He hated it when people made fun of his height. He glanced at Willem beside him.
"Quickly deal with them. Let these two naive little brats see how powerful we are."
The giant man nodded and once again entered his martial soul possession state.
Both women immediately summoned their martial souls.
"Oh, guests, we can see that the girl named Ning Rongrong has a Seven Treasure Glazed Tile, which is known as the world's number one auxiliary martial soul. Let's look forward to this exciting match!"
Willem and Nunu stared at the crystal-clear little tower in the girl's hand, their expressions slightly tightening. They started to hesitate. This was Seven Treasure City, and judging by their opponents' age, they could tell that these two were core disciples of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. If they injured them, they might not be able to leave the city.
"Willem, be a little gentler."
"Mm."
Willem nodded seriously. He wasn't stupid. Winning was enough, and there was no need to risk his own life.
Ning Rongrong saw that her opponents were hesitant and smiled slyly. She then cast two buffs on Xiao Wu and ran to the edge of the stage, betting that the opponents wouldn't dare to attack her.
"The Seven Treasures say: strength, speed. Xiao Wu, it's all yours."
Xiao Wu felt her strength and speed increase and nodded at Ning Rongrong in satisfaction.
"Don't worry, just watch your sister Xiao Wu. You take a rest over there."
With that, Xiao Wu shot forward at incredible speed, heading straight for the giant snowman.
While Nunu and Willem hesitated to attack Ning Rongrong, they clearly had no such concerns when it came to Xiao Wu. They immediately unleashed a Frost Shock at her.
Xiao Wu saw the shockwave approaching and her third purple soul ring lit up. Her figure instantly disappeared.
"What?"
"Where did she go?"
Nunu and Willem stared in shock at the empty stage, unable to believe the speed Xiao Wu had displayed.
Xiao Wu reappeared behind the giant man, wrapping her legs around his neck and making her first soul ring glow.
"Waist bow."
Willem, completely unprepared for Xiao Wu's attack, was thrown to the ground by the 3-meter tall body, his face contorted in pain.
"That damn little brat, no martial ethics, using a sneak attack."
Nunu gritted his teeth as he stared at the smug Xiao Wu in front of him.
At that moment, Willem massaged his neck and stood up.
"Yeah, I got careless. I didn't dodge. Don't get cocky."
Hearing this, Xiao Wu wagged her finger in the air and teased him.
"Hehe, you're so big yet can't even win. You should be embarrassed. What are you going to do about me?"
Nunu and Willem both had # signs on their foreheads, clearly furious. They exchanged a look and leaned toward each other.
"Martial Soul Fusion Technique."
"Snowman Knight."
A huge snowman appeared with a small figure riding on its back, resembling a little monkey.
Ning Bei, observing from the stands, nearly had his eyes pop out of their sockets. He glanced over at Dugu Yan.
"What's going on? First the Snake Lady, and now the Snowman Knight? No wonder their names sounded so familiar."
Dugu Yan, noticing Ning Bei's odd gaze, was a bit confused.
"What's wrong? Ning Bei."
"It's nothing, just marveling at the wonders of the martial soul fusion technique."
On the stage, Xiao Wu saw the mighty Snowman Knight, and a serious look appeared on her face. She could feel a dangerous aura.
"Willem, let's go, the biggest snowball ever."
The snowman held a pile of snow in its hands, and as it slowly pushed it towards Xiao Wu, the snowball began to grow larger. In no time, it was the same size as the snowman itself.
Ning Bei muttered, "It's a done deal!"
Xiao Wu looked curiously at the incoming attack. Was this supposed to intimidate her? The snowball did look impressive, but its speed was too slow.
She didn't even bother using her teleportation ability, instead easily moving behind the snowman and kicking him in the butt with a powerful Tiger Kick.
"Oh, little girl, you're playing dirty again. If you have the guts, don't run away, face me head-on."
Xiao Wu rolled her eyes. Fight you head-on? Do you think I'm stupid?
From the edge of the arena, Ning Rongrong watched Xiao Wu effortlessly toy with the opponents, clapping her hands in joy.
"Yay, go for it! Xiao Wu, kick their butts hard."
As she said this, she even kicked the air in front of her as if showing Xiao Wu how to do it.
Xiao Wu winked at Ning Rongrong, signaling that she had received the message. "Watch this!"
The Snowman Knight, realizing he had missed his attack, quickly discarded the snowball, and the little figure on his back began throwing smaller snowballs at Xiao Wu.
"Snowball Barrage."
While Xiao Wu dodged the snowballs, she occasionally darted behind the snowman to give him a kick, clearly enjoying the game.
The audience couldn't stay quiet. Most of them had bet on the Snowfield Twins to win.
"What's going on? Are they throwing the match?"
"Rnm! Refund!"
"Stop playing around, finish off those two little brats, I want my villa back!"
The Snowman Knight could no longer tolerate the audience's mocking. Getting toyed with by a little girl was too embarrassing.
"You little brat, you forced us to do this. Don't blame us."
"Grassland Atomic... Bah! Absolute Zero."
A wave of frost began to form under the Snowman Knight's feet, expanding rapidly to cover the entire arena. Energy surged through the frost, looking like it was about to explode.
On the edge of the arena, Ning Rongrong saw this and quickly screamed as she jumped down from the platform, her face full of anxiety as she looked at Xiao Wu.
At that moment, Xiao Wu felt her body grow heavy, as if drained of all energy, unable to move.
Her black eyes rolled to the side, and she looked at the flying soul tool of the host above her. A mischievous smile appeared on her lips.
Her third soul ring flashed again, and Xiao Wu's figure disappeared from the stage, reappearing next to the host.
The two of them locked eyes for a moment.
Host: "Are you not playing fair?"
At that moment, the frost under the Snowman Knight exploded with a loud bang, and the entire arena was filled with ice shards, making it impossible to see what was happening.
Ning Bei: "Nice job, big cooldown!"
While the Snowman Knight was obliviously celebrating his victory at the edge of the arena, Xiao Wu's figure appeared behind him once again.
"Get lost."
With one powerful kick, the cocky Snowman Knight was sent flying off the arena.
The host, witnessing the situation, immediately announced the result.
"Wow! What a huge upset! The Snowfield Twins, who had just achieved 20 consecutive victories, were defeated by our Seven Treasure Enchantress Bunny Combo! Let's hear it for our beautiful girls!"
The audience, having just lost their bets, were no longer in the mood to cheer.
"Fixed match, scandal!"
"Rnm, refund!"
"Trash! Snowfield Twins, ruined my villa by the sea!"
