Douluo: Martial Soul White Tiger, I am the White Emperor of Heaven

Chapter 405 The Sensation of the White Tiger Martial Soul

The afterglow of the setting sun, the sky ablaze with evening glow.

Inside Dai Chengfeng's room in the Spirit Hall.

"Dai Chengfeng, why are you so much later than usual today?"

Seeing Dai Chengfeng push open the door and enter the room, Hu Liena blinked her charming, slender fox-like eyes, looked him up and down, and asked with curiosity, "Did something happen?"

Zhu Zhuqing, standing to the side, seemed distracted.

Even after seeing Dai Chengfeng enter, Hu Liena, who had just been arguing with him, subconsciously pursed her lips slightly, turned her head, and looked away, a barely perceptible blush creeping up her little ears.

Clearly, what happened last night made her very shy and afraid to face Dai Chengfeng.

Dai Chengfeng smiled as he took in Zhu Zhuqing's shyness, a smug smile creeping onto his lips.

After all... that was Zhu Zhuqing's first kiss!

But Dai Chengfeng didn't tease Zhu Zhuqing. Instead, he cleared his throat and smiled at Hu Liena:

"Yes, there was a small accident along the way, which caused a delay."

"Did something really happen? What kind of accident?"

Hu Liena's gossipy curiosity was immediately piqued, and she pressed Dai Chengfeng for answers.

Dai Chengfeng simply shook his head, offering no explanation.

After all, it's best not to talk about Liu Erlong and Yu Xiaogang, especially about the things between Liu Erlong and himself.

Therefore, Dai Chengfeng immediately changed the subject: "It's nothing serious."

"Alright, you guys must have been waiting impatiently, right? Let's head to the Great Soul Arena now, or it'll be closed by the time we get there."

Hearing Dai Chengfeng get down to business, Hu Liena was still curious about what had happened, but her desire to become stronger immediately took over.

Zhu Zhuqing breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Dai Chengfeng did not mention that her first kiss had been stolen in front of Hu Liena. She then composed herself, suppressed her shyness, and nodded gently.

"Let's go!" *2
"Don't mimic me!" *2
The two women spoke in unison, then glanced at each other, gave a soft snort, and looked away.

"Hmph!"*2
Dai Chengfeng watched this scene, shook his head with a smile, and led the pair of 'partners' who were still at odds but inexplicably in sync to the Great Soul Arena.

The battle mode remains the same as yesterday.

Dai Chengfeng will only serve as an assistant and support, leaving the main attack and team cohesion to Zhu Zhuqing and Hu Liena as much as possible.

He would only intervene forcefully when the two women encountered dangers they could not handle.

Perhaps after a few days of reflection and Dai Chengfeng's previous guidance, the two women's teamwork, though still tinged with stumbles and mutual rivalry, was visibly much more skillful.

The swift and elusive nature of the Netherworld Cat, the alluring control of the Fox Spirit, and the domineering power of the White Tiger...

After several battles, except for one, victory remained the dominant theme.

If I had to pinpoint anything different about today's battle...

That is, during the entire battle, Dai Chengfeng keenly sensed something unusual.

He felt that his White Tiger Martial Soul seemed to resonate with Zhu Zhuqing's Netherworld Cat Martial Soul in a peculiar, subtle way.

It wasn't a resonance at the level of soul power; it was more like an extremely subtle attraction and throbbing originating from the very source of the martial soul.

"Was it because of yesterday's kiss that Zhu Zhuqing opened her heart to me, or because she was touched by my scent, or perhaps..."

Dai Chengfeng pondered, not quite understanding the reason for the change in his martial soul.

"It seems I'll have to give Zhu Zhuqing another 'experiment' when I get the chance!"

Dai Chengfeng watched with amusement as Zhu Zhuqing, with her heroic bearing and exceptional charm, fought, his heart burning with desire.

…………

...The battle ended, and the bright moon hung high in the sky.

The three of them set off on their journey home, bathed in the soft, moonlight.

"Hmph, we actually lost a match today. Although the opposing team was a seven-person team and their soul power was several levels higher than ours, I feel that if that stupid cat hadn't been a beat slow to react, we could have continued fighting!"

On the way, the conversation continued with summaries of the day's battles.

Hu Liena looked at Zhu Zhuqing, smoothed her slightly curly hair, and spoke with her usual provocative tone.

Zhu Zhuqing's eyes narrowed instantly, and she looked at Hu Liena with a cold expression, retorting without showing any weakness: "Heh! I'm still better than someone whose charm soul skill is immune to by the other party."

"What did you say?!"

"be honest."

"That's because her soul power is more than 20 levels higher than mine, otherwise how could she be immune to my charm?"

"That means they've become immune!"

"Zhu Zhuqing! You still dare to talk back! Where have you gone?"
Your reckless attack, without Dai Chengfeng's help, would have resulted in you being knocked out of the ring by that agile attacker immediately.

"Hu Liena, do you understand? I took the initiative because I trusted Chengfeng, not because I was reckless!"

"Ha! Do you think I believe you or not?"

"Ha! Does it matter whether you believe it or not?"

"..."

Hu Liena and Zhu Zhuqing continued their familiar banter, while Dai Chengfeng simply smiled and strolled leisurely beside the two women.

He was already used to the two women's unique way of "friendly communication," so he didn't intend to interrupt.

however.

Sometimes trouble comes to you even if you don't actively seek it out.

As they left the Soul Arena and approached the Spirit Hall, the two women continued arguing about who should be blamed for their one and only defeat.

Unfortunately, neither of them could convince the other.

In the end, both women turned their gazes to Dai Chengfeng.

"Dai Chengfeng, tell me, wasn't she more at fault in that match?" *2
Instantly, the two women pointed at each other, looking at Dai Chengfeng with serious expressions, and asked him questions.

"Forehead……"

Seeing the two women arguing and suddenly involving him, Dai Chengfeng paused slightly, then quickly and skillfully smoothed things over:

"Alright, alright, you two did a great job today."

"The reason for these minor mistakes is mainly because your soul power suddenly surged and you are not yet used to it, which makes you less proficient in controlling the surged power."

"After a while, about half a month, your soul power will be completely stable, and then everything will be fine."

"Then I'll take you to obtain suitable spirit rings."

"I believe that by then, your strength will have made a qualitative leap, and you will definitely not lose when you face this team again!"

Upon hearing Dai Chengfeng's explanation, especially regarding the spirit rings and the leap in strength, Hu Liena and Zhu Zhuqing's beautiful eyes lit up simultaneously. They temporarily forgot their bickering and couldn't help but show anticipation on their faces.

However, they knew that if it weren't for the immortal herbs given to them by Dai Chengfeng, their soul power would never have increased so rapidly, and their physical qualities would not be so far superior to those of other soul masters of the same level.

"Thank you."*2
Looking at Dai Chengfeng, Zhu Zhuqing's voice was soft and sincere.

Hu Liena's tone softened, and her eyes were also full of gratitude.

Dai Chengfeng smiled and naturally reached out to gently pat Zhu Zhuqing and Hu Liena's heads: "We're all family, why be so polite with me?"
