The first spirit ring lit up.
The deep yellow light now had a chilling, blood-red hue.
"White Tiger Splits Golden Claws".
There were no fancy moves.
Only extreme speed and power.
The dark golden tiger claw gripped the man in black's neck with perfect precision.
"Snap!"
The crisp sound of bones cracking was particularly jarring in the silent forest.
The man in black's pupils dilated suddenly.
His soul power shield was like tofu in front of that claw, collapsing instantly.
He never understood it until his death.
Why could a three-ring Soul Master easily see through his movements?
Why is the attack power of that claw so strong?
Dai Mubai casually tossed the black-clad man's corpse aside, as if throwing away a piece of trash.
He took out a handkerchief and slowly wiped his fingers.
"I said that."
"The best defense is the best offense."
"If I kill you before you touch me, I won't need to defend myself."
Right now.
The dark world.
A deathly silence enveloped the entire continent.
Everyone stared wide-eyed at the sky.
Sold out instantly.
It sold out in seconds again.
At twelve years old and level thirty-seven, he instantly killed a level forty-two agility-based Soul Master.
This is like listening to a myth!
"Is...is this even human?"
Someone said in a trembling voice.
"Slaying an enemy across a major realm is as easy as killing a chicken?"
"This combat ability, this mental fortitude, even those veteran Soul Masters can't compare, right?"
Shrek Academy.
Yu Xiaogang seemed to have his soul ripped out, slumping into the chair.
"A challenge beyond one's level..."
"And it was an instant kill..."
"This completely contradicts the theory of soul power suppression..."
"How exactly did Dai Mubai from the White World develop his combat intuition?"
He couldn't understand it.
In his mind, only his disciple Tang San, with his hidden weapons and twin martial souls, could possibly achieve this.
But now, Dai Mubai, who only used his first soul skill, has done it.
White World, Starry Palace Royal Garden.
A faint floral fragrance filled the air, but it couldn't mask the fervent look in the eyes of the stunningly beautiful women.
As soon as the stunning image on the screen faded, the atmosphere in the Imperial Garden became enchanting.
Zhu Zhuqing's cool and pretty face was now as if it had been smeared with rouge.
She practically pressed herself against Dai Mubai, her soft body not only failing to avoid suspicion but also carrying a hint of asserting dominance.
"Then why didn't you tell me back then?"
Zhu Zhuqing's voice was soft, carrying a hint of resentment, but more so, heartache.
"Tell you what?"
Dai Mubai toyed with an exquisite jade cup in his hand, a mischievous smile on his face, and casually put his arm around Zhu Zhuqing's slender waist.
"Tell me I'm confident I can kill that Soul Master in one move? If I said that back then, wouldn't you, little wildcat, think I'm bragging?"
Zhu Zhuqing gave a soft hum, but obediently leaned into his arms.
"I was terrified at that time."
"What if that person really hurts you?"
Xiao Wu, who was standing to the side, couldn't stand it any longer. She threw down the half carrot in her hand and stood up straight with her two rabbit ears.
"Ugh, it's so sour, so sour!"
"Zhu Qing, you're supposed to be a cool and aloof Netherworld Cat, so why do you turn into a clingy house cat in front of Boss Dai?"
As Xiao Wu spoke, she moved closer to Dai Mubai's other side and poked his chest with a finger.
"Boss Dai, you're being way too biased."
"Why didn't you include me in that cool scene?"
"I also want to go to the border and wreak havoc!"
Dai Mubai grabbed her mischievous fingers and squeezed them with a little force.
"Back then, you were still the boss of Nottingham City."
"Besides, the battlefield is a place full of blood. If you, little rabbit, go there, you'll probably wet your pants in fear."
You're the one who wets your pants!
Xiao Wu bared her teeth and claws, trying to pounce and bite someone, but Dai Mubai easily held her head down, leaving her only able to wave her arms in place.
Qian Renxue sat to the side, elegantly holding a teacup, her golden eyes gleaming with a unique light.
She watched the three of them playfully bickering, a slight smile playing on her lips.
"Alright."
"Mu Bai was indeed quite charming back then."
"That confidence wasn't faked; it was an arrogance that came from within."
Qian Renxue put down her teacup, her gaze becoming deep and unfathomable.
"Unlike Dai Mubai from that world, who, besides being impotently furious, didn't even have the courage to admit the gap between them."
Dai Mubai released Xiao Wu and glanced at his three female confidantes.
"That's natural."
"If I weren't strong, how could I keep an eye on you unruly demons?"
As he spoke, his hand wandered restlessly across Qian Renxue's smooth hand.
Qian Renxue didn't dodge; instead, she grabbed his hand and gave Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Wu a provocative look.
"Tonight, to my palace?"
This suggestive remark immediately infuriated the other two women.
...
Images flow across the sky.
Before everyone could catch their breath, a new scene unfolded.
Border, military camp.
A chilling atmosphere swept over us.
There are no luxurious palaces here, only rough tents and patrolling armored soldiers.
Holding his father's edict, Dai Mubai did not reveal his princely identity to enter the command center. Instead, he went to a recruiting point.
Just as he was about to register, a petite figure suddenly darted out from the shadows beside him.
The black bodysuit outlined her figure, which was not yet fully developed but already had a beginning shape.
It was Zhu Zhuqing, who was twelve years old.
The audience in front of the dome were stunned.
Zhu Zhuqing, in the dark world, looked at herself in the image, her eyes filled with extreme complexity.
She remembers it very clearly.
In the underworld, at the age of twelve, she was still struggling to support her family, living in constant fear and anxiety as her older sister, Zhu Zhuyun, pursued her.
At that time, Dai Mubai had already gone to Soto City to indulge in a life of pleasure.
He even stopped replying to her letters in an attempt to avoid her.
But in the picture.
Zhu Zhuqing from the white world actually chased him all the way to the border!
In the picture.
Dai Mubai frowned as he looked at his suddenly appearing fiancée.
"Nonsense."
"This is a battlefield, not Xingluo City."
"go back."
His tone was stern.
But Zhu Zhuqing stubbornly raised her head, her dark eyes filled with determination.
I won't reply.
"You are my fiancé, our lives are intertwined."
"If you dare to come here and fight to the death, I dare to die with you."
"and..."
Zhu Zhuqing's soul power surged, and two yellow soul rings lit up.
"I'm already level 27."
"I am not a burden."
Dai Mubai looked at her and remained silent for a moment.
Then, he sighed, his stern expression softened, and he reached out and gave Zhu Zhuqing's head a firm rub.
"Since you're here, don't cry."
"Stay close to me."
"If you lose your life, I'm not responsible for collecting your body."
Although his words were harsh, he naturally took Zhu Zhuqing's hand and led her towards the recruit camp.
