"Qinghe, since you have a very close personal relationship with the king..."
"Have you ever obtained that kind of magical fruit?"
"I just experienced it myself, and that fruit will definitely be of great use to your Swan Martial Soul!"
Qian Renxue chuckled inwardly; she had been eating it for a long time, in fact, every year.
But on the surface, she looked regretful and sighed:
"The king did say he would give me one, but my soul power is currently weak and my foundation is still shallow."
"They said that the effect would be best once my skills improved further."
"So the fruit that belongs to the students is still hanging on that sacred tree."
She couldn't say that she had already eaten; if she did, Ruoning Fengzhi would check her martial spirit status.
If her divine aura as a six-winged angel were to be revealed, all her years of lurking would be for naught.
After listening, Ning Fengzhi nodded thoughtfully, a look of agreement on his face.
"The king's considerations were indeed thorough."
"The fruit contains a vast amount of energy. If one is weak and tries to absorb it, it may not only be useless, but may also cause one to explode and die."
After the conversation, Ning Fengzhi was in a great mood. He picked up his teacup and was about to take a sip when he suddenly remembered the strangeness when he entered the palace.
"By the way, Qinghe, when I entered the palace just now, I saw many imperial guards walking hurriedly, looking very menacing."
"But what major event has occurred in the palace?"
The moment those words were spoken, the previously relaxed atmosphere froze instantly.
Qian Renxue also looked helpless and rubbed her temples.
She glanced out the window, her voice heavy.
"Teacher, this time... I'm afraid something really bad is going to happen."
Next, she recounted how Prince Xuexing had put on airs at the entrance of the dueling arena to buy people, only to be defeated and forced to flee.
And the fact that Emperor Xueye was furious and was currently mobilizing Marshal Golong and the Royal Soul Master Corps to prepare to besiege the dueling arena.
He told it all in detail.
"What?!"
Ning Fengzhi suddenly spoke, his voice changing tone.
"Encirclement and annihilation of the dueling arena?!"
"Has His Majesty gone mad?!"
Only those who have actually been there know what kind of terror is hidden inside that seemingly ordinary building!
The burly man at the entrance, as imposing as a mountain.
The blue-haired woman in the corridor whose whip could freeze a soul.
And then there was that terrifyingly wicked master, and the white-haired woman radiating extreme coldness...
Not to mention the king who sat in the darkness, making him feel suffocated!
Even if such a force mobilized the entire empire's military strength, it would probably not gain any advantage whatsoever!
"no!"
Ning Fengzhi was so anxious that he paced around in circles, his face turning pale.
"If we really start fighting, we'll anger that king."
"They don't even need to send a large army. They just need to send that Steward Tai or the Evil Steward to the palace once. Who can stop them?"
"How could His Majesty's life be spared?!"
"When the empire descends into chaos and countless lives are lost, the Heavenly Dou royal family will likely be expelled from the royal family!"
Qian Renxue sighed inwardly as she looked at Ning Fengzhi, who was in a state of extreme anxiety.
After all, the Heavenly Dou Empire was hers to possess in the future, and she was heartbroken to see it destroyed.
"Teacher, I've already tried to persuade them."
Qian Renxue smiled bitterly, "You know Father's current condition."
"He wanted the miraculous medicine that could regenerate severed limbs, but he also wanted the three women who could help people break through their limits."
"I'm using this to try and become a Title Douluo, in order to prolong my life."
"He's now resorting to any means necessary to survive."
Ning Fengzhi angrily flung his sleeves and strode out, his voice urgent.
"Foolish! Utterly foolish!"
"Even if it's for prolonging life, you have to be alive to enjoy it!"
"Go! Qinghe, let's go to the palace right now! Let's go together and stop His Majesty!"
"We must not let the empire be destroyed by this foolish decision!"
Qian Renxue shook her head helplessly and could only hurry to catch up. This dilapidated royal family really never lets anyone have a moment's peace!
...
Meanwhile, on a dirt road.
A rather simple horse-drawn carriage was moving slowly forward.
Sitting in the carriage were the Shrek Academy students who were heading to Heaven Dou City to find a dueling arena.
At this moment, the people inside the car were looking up, gazing through the car window at the still-visible sky.
In the scene, the man did not release his martial spirit or use any spirit rings.
With just his physical body, he left countless afterimages in the air, making Bai Chenxiang run around in circles.
At this moment, Xiao Wu, who was standing to the side, held her face in her hands, looking at the sky, her two rabbit ears swaying back and forth.
"Third brother, third brother, look!"
"This person's movement skills are amazing!"
"It feels like there are multiple versions of him moving at the same time, and it's impossible to tell which one is real."
"Third Brother, I remember you have similar footwork, are you also very skilled?"
Hearing Xiao Wu's praise, Tang San glanced at the sky and a smile with a hint of superiority appeared on his lips.
"That movement technique?"
Tang San chuckled lightly, his tone carrying a hint of nonchalant disdain.
"Xiao Wu, you've mistaken me for someone else."
"His footwork wasn't anything particularly sophisticated; at best, it was just a visual afterimage created by his speed."
"It looks flashy, but it's actually completely haphazard."
At this point, Tang San straightened his back, his eyes gleaming with confidence.
"My Ghostly Shadow Steps technique is a unique skill of the Tang Clan."
"It emphasizes the combination of the real and the unpredictable, and is a skill that contains the ultimate principles of heaven and earth."
"How could someone like him, who relies on brute force and unorthodox methods, compare?"
Tang San was actually a little hesitant.
The man's actions just now did remind him of some masters from his past life.
Could it be that there are other time travelers in this world besides myself?
The thought of this possibility darkened Tang San's expression.
If that's the case, he's already courting death!
Tang San looked at Xiao Wu and confidently assured her, "I only have shallow soul power right now, and my body hasn't fully developed yet."
"Once my soul power increases, I'll combine it with the Purple Demon Eye and Ghost Shadow Steps."
"What that person can do, I can do too."
"I could even do better and more perfectly than him!"
After all, the Xuan Tian Bao Lu is a peerless secret manual, and it was a top-tier existence even in the original world.
The people in this world only know how to cultivate brute soul power; they have no idea about meridians, acupoints, or footwork.
Upon hearing this, Dai Mubai immediately nodded in agreement, looking completely convinced.
"That's for sure!"
"I've experienced Xiao San's footwork firsthand. Back when we fought one-on-one, my White Tiger Blazing Wave couldn't even touch the hem of his clothes."
"That so-called owner of the venue is probably just someone who bullies others because he's of a higher rank."
"If we're really talking about skills, we have to look to the mistress."
Upon hearing Dai Mubai's words, Oscar gave him a thumbs up:
"As expected of Third Brother! He's amazing!"
Only Ma Hongjun, sitting in the corner, showed absolutely no interest in any kind of movement technique.
His small eyes were fixed on the grown-up Bai Chenxiang on the sky, his drool practically dripping down his collar.
"Slurp..."
Ma Hongjun rubbed his hands together with a lewd expression, his eyes narrowing into slits as he smiled.
"Third Brother, I don't understand movement techniques or anything like that."
"But this girl is really hot!"
"Look at those legs, look at that slim waist...tsk tsk tsk!"
Ma Hongjun's eyes lit up and he chuckled, "If we could bring her to our academy, she would be a perfect match for my phoenix, an absolute match!"
"Oh dear, this burning desire is flaring up again. No, no, once we get to Tiandou City, I need to find a place to vent my anger right away!"
"You fatso! Is that all you've got?"
Oscar, standing next to him, shifted his position to the side in disgust and rolled his eyes.
"You fatso, wake up!"
"That's a swan, and you're just a country bumpkin. A perfect match?"
"Why don't you take a piss and look at yourself in the mirror? Do you think anyone would want you?"
"Keep dreaming!"
"Hey! How dare you talk like that? I'm a phoenix! A chicken-phoenix!"
Ma Hongjun wasn't annoyed and continued to drool over the beautiful woman on the sky.
"You should always have dreams, right? Maybe someone will like my type!"
