Chapter 39: Future Plans for the Tianshui Team
After lunch, Shui Xinrou headed to Tianshui College to take care of some business.
Shui Yue'er, watching Liu Yanyang and Shui Bing'er flirting with each other, frowned and said gloomily, "Sister, can you two stop showing off your affection? I really can't stand you two, woooo..."
Leading Liu Yanyang, they headed straight for the training grounds. Passing students whispered and stared at him with strange eyes.
"Great! Another wave of hatred!" Liu Yanyang couldn't help but sigh.
They arrived at a secluded lake, next to a flat, artificial field. Five young girls, members of the Tianshui team, chattered away.
"Big sister, Yue'er!" Xuewu and the others exclaimed in unison. But upon seeing Liu Yanyang clasping hands with their big sister, Xuewu immediately erupted in disbelief.
"Heartless man! Didn't you say you and big sister were fine? Why are you even holding hands today?"
Liu Yanyang coughed awkwardly and then righteously declared, "That person yesterday wasn't me!"
What a scumbag's statement! Xuewu and the others looked at Liu Yanyang with disgust.
"Alright, stop teasing them," Shui Bing'er whispered.
Afterward, they explained the entire situation to the group, finally clearing up the misunderstanding, but they still harbored doubts. Liu Yanyang was helpless about this. After all, once suspicion was aroused, the accusation was already established.
"What are your soul power levels?" Liu Yanyang asked casually.
Xuewu and the others saw Shui Bing'er nod slightly.
"Xuewu, Spirit: Slender Dance, Forged Snow, Level 33 Soul Master!"
"Shen Liuyu, Spirit: Enamel Fortune Crocodile, Level 31 Soul Master!"
"Yu Hairou, Spirit: Coral Barracuda, Level 32 Soul Master!"
"Qiu Ruoshui, Spirit: Blue Lotus Smoked Perch, Level 32 Soul Master!"
"Gu Qingbo, Spirit: Azure Sailfish, Level 31 Soul Master!"
After the introductions, Liu Yanyang nodded. In the original Soul Master Competition, only Shui Bing'er and Xuewu achieved the breakthrough to Soul Sect.
He didn't plan to participate in future Soul Master Competitions. After all, by then, he might have the potential to reach Soul Emperor, which would be too conspicuous.
But he wouldn't give up those three ten-thousand-year soul bones. After all, Dou Yi soul bones were incredibly rare!
They could only rely on the herbs from the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire to boost their speed. They wouldn't be given many immortal herbs, but they could still get some top-grade herbs.
With a team composed entirely of Soul Sect members, and Bing'er as a Soul King at the helm, defeating the Spirit Hall team and earning those three Soul Bones shouldn't be a problem.
As for the Shrek team of the little punk—sorry, the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire currently belonged to him and Old Poison, so the little punk wasn't expecting anything.
As for whether the Shura God behind the little punk might be giving him cheats, Liu Yanyang said, "Who cares?"
Turning to Shui Bing'er, he asked, "Bing'er, your Elemental Academy exchange tournament is held every two years. Will the teams still compete against each other?"
Shui Bing'er nodded, looking at Liu Yanyang with confusion.
"Looks like the herbal remedies will have to wait until after the exchange tournament in two years!" Liu Yanyang muttered to himself.
Xuewu rolled her eyes at Liu Yanyang, lost in thought, her tone slightly mocking.
"Seeing you defeat Yu Tianxin with a single move yesterday, I wonder if you'd dare to fight us sisters?"
Liu Yanyang nodded—a perfect opportunity to test the Tianshui team's skill.
Xuewu and the others were quite excited, looking at Shui Bing'er.
"Sister, you can't let us down!"
Shui Bing'er shook her head. Only she knew how strong Liu Yanyang was.

On the training ground!
Liu Yanyang stood alone, while Shui Bing'er and the other seven had already taken their positions opposite him.
At a command, they summoned their spirits simultaneously.
Snow danced in the wind, and the entire training ground began to be covered with dark clouds. Heavy rain began to fall, and gradually, snow began to fall.
Liu Yanyang felt the temperature plummet, and his spirit power was depleted at an accelerated rate.
"First Spirit Skill—Frost Imprisonment!"
Shui Bing'er's spirit rings lit up at her feet.
In an instant, an icy blue light enveloped Liu Yanyang, forming a thick, piercing ring that held him in place.
Looking at the motionless Liu Yanyang, Xuewu shouted, "Sisters, hit him!"
The six people, except Shui Bing'er, rushed towards Liu Yanyang at full speed.
The imprisoned Liu Yanyang curled his lips slightly, and as the others rushed towards him, he directly activated two spirit rings.
"First Soul Skill—Dragon Roar!"
"Third Soul Skill—Unyielding!"
Instantly, he broke free from his restraints and vanished in a flash. A few breaths later, several people lay twitching on the ground, each one flung back by Liu Yanyang's spear.
Then, he looked at Shui Bing'er, his eyes filled with a newfound fighting spirit. Under the influence of his two amplifying soul skills, he charged at her like a ghost.
"Frost Confinement x4!"
He instantly unleashed it four times in a single breath, leaving Shui Bing'er gasping for air.
With a simple wave of his hand, Liu Yanyang shattered Shui Bing'er's soul skills.
Seeing this, Shui Bing'er instantly activated her third soul ring—Frost Realm.
A wave of icy blue light spread out in all directions, the temperature plummeted, and heavy snow fluttered, instantly transforming the world into a land of ice and snow.
Liu Yanyang could only feel his soul power rapidly depleting, his speed also slowing.
Without a moment's hesitation, Liu Yanyang continued his charge, closing in on Shui Bing'er.
"Second Soul Skill—Resist Light!"
Seeing a rippling white wave of light hurtling towards him, Liu Yanyang made a decisive move, hurling his Dragon Roar Spear with all his might before leaping with all his might.
A violent explosion echoed, sending the Dragon Roar Spear flying backwards, creating a cloud of white mist. Shui Bing'er, unable to detect Liu Yanyang's location, glanced around warily.
Suddenly, she felt someone hug her from behind. Turning, she saw it was Liu Yanyang, blushing with shame and confusion.
"I used 'Chengying' to conceal my form, so of course you couldn't sense me!" Liu Yanyang explained.
Without using his fourth soul skill, he had no real way to defeat Shui Bing'er. After all, a rule-based soul skill like Resist Light was inherently flawed.
Then, he took Shui Bing'er's hand and walked out side by side. As for the people on the ground...
Liu Yanyang whispered softly as they walked back to the Water Mansion, "Bing'er, what level is Aunt Shui now?"
"Level 79, but Mom has been unable to break through and become a Soul Douluo," Shui Bing'er frowned slightly and said with some worry.
"It doesn't matter, I have a way to help Aunt Shui break through!" Liu Yanyang said confidently.
It just so happened that the old monster would break through to level 80 after absorbing the fairy-quality Qirong Tongtianju. By then, they could call on the old poisonous creature and find a perfect eighth ring for the two of them.
