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

Is there a chapter 439? It's quite obvious.

Almost the instant Dai Chengfeng stepped into the courtyard, the two women noticed him at the same time.

Furthermore, he immediately noticed Dai Chengfeng's unusually radiant appearance today.

Zhu Zhuqing closed the book in her hand, a hint of doubt flashing in her cat-like, lively eyes. She tilted her head slightly, her cool gaze falling on Dai Chengfeng's almost overflowing smile.

Hu Liena also stopped and walked over to Zhu Zhuqing with a charming smile.

A pair of peach blossom eyes swept over Dai Chengfeng, with a hint of inquiry and amusement.

"Hey, did you find a gold soul coin? Or did some pretty girl confess her feelings to you on the street? You're smiling so... lovestruck?"

Hu Liena spoke first, her tone carrying her unique coquettishness and teasing.

Although Zhu Zhuqing did not speak, her slightly raised eyebrows and the clear question in her eyes conveyed the same meaning.

"Did I? Was it obvious to me?"

As Dai Chengfeng spoke, the smile in his eyes remained undiminished.

Zhu Zhuqing's voice was clear and crisp, "Obviously? You're practically wearing the words 'I'm very happy' on your face."

“It’s more than just four words,” Hu Liena chuckled, covering her mouth. “I think he’d love to announce to the entire Spirit Hall that he’s in a fantastic mood today.”

Dai Chengfeng was teased by the two women in a back-and-forth banter, but he didn't get annoyed. Instead, he chuckled and was in such a good mood that he didn't care about their teasing at all.

He stopped worrying about managing his facial expressions and simply admitted that he was in a great mood.

But the specific reason is, of course, a secret that cannot be revealed.

"It seems nothing can escape the discerning eyes of these two heroines."

Dai Chengfeng strode forward, extending his arms with remarkable ease and skill, ready to embrace the two beauties with contrasting styles, saying, "Since you've figured it out, let's share my good mood together!"

"Let's go to the Great Soul Arena and stretch our muscles!"

However, his "claws" did not succeed.

Before his arm could touch her, Zhu Zhuqing nimbly sidestepped him, giving him a cold, dismissive glare.

Hu Liena even raised her hand and slapped away his restless hand with a "smack," saying coquettishly:

"Just talk, don't get physical! You bastard!"

Dai Chengfeng withdrew his hand, but his face remained smiling, showing no embarrassment whatsoever.

"Alright, alright, no fighting involved." He readily agreed. "Then, would you two beautiful ladies do me the honor of accompanying me to the Great Soul Arena for a battle?"

Zhu Zhuqing and Hu Liena exchanged a glance, both seeing the helplessness and resignation in each other's eyes.

They seem to have become somewhat immune to Dai Chengfeng's occasional erratic behavior.

“Let’s go, let’s go,” Hu Liena straightened her not-so-disheveled clothes. “I feel like I’ve gained something today and I want to test it out.”

Zhu Zhuqing nodded slightly.

"Let's go then!"

Dai Chengfeng took the lead and walked briskly out of the courtyard.

Zhu Zhuqing and Hu Liena followed behind him, watching his unusually cheerful demeanor, which even his back seemed to radiate joy, and couldn't help but whisper among themselves again.

"What's wrong with him today?"

Hu Liena leaned closer to Zhu Zhuqing and whispered, "He's become like this since he came back from the Papal Palace... What did the teacher say to him?"

Zhu Zhuqing shook her head, her cool eyes also filled with confusion: "I don't know."

"But it's definitely not something ordinary."

She paused, then added, "And it's definitely something he'd love to have."

"Weird..."

Hu Liena muttered something, her gaze falling once again on the figure humming an off-key tune and walking with a swagger, her curiosity piqued.

They speculated on various possibilities, perhaps he had made a breakthrough in his cultivation?
Perhaps he received some kind of award?
Or perhaps he had devised some interesting plan? However, no matter how clever and quick-witted they were, they could never have guessed what had made Dai Chengfeng so overjoyed and smug…

She was the noble, majestic, and awe-inspiring figure who had just been forced to blush and feel extremely embarrassed by this "bastard" in front of them in the solemn Papal Palace.

Ultimately, what extraordinary promises were made?

The Great Soul Arena in Wuhun City is always bustling with people, no matter when.

Soul Masters yearn to prove themselves, hone their skills, or win generous prizes here.

When Dai Chengfeng, Zhu Zhuqing, and Hu Liena walked side by side through the magnificent gate, they immediately attracted a lot of attention.

The receptionist was a pretty young woman. When she saw the three of them approaching from afar, she immediately stopped what she was doing and quickly put on a respectful and enthusiastic smile.

As the three approached, he quickly bowed slightly, his tone familiar yet polite:

"Mr. Dai, Ms. Zhu, Ms. Hu, good afternoon."

"Same as always, shall we arrange a team battle for the three of you?"

Dai Chengfeng nodded and smiled, "That's right, the same old rules!"

"Okay, please wait a moment, I will find a suitable opponent for you right away."

The waiter quickly operated the screen of the soul tool beside him, his eyes filled with undisguised admiration.

This is not because she had a special attitude; it's because the trio of Dai Chengfeng, Zhu Zhuqing, and Hu Liena had become a legend in the Wuhun City Grand Arena over the past period of time.

Or rather, it's an extremely eye-catching phenomenon.

They come almost every day without fail.

Moreover, they only had three people, yet they directly participated in the team battle.

They even frequently challenge opponents of higher levels, whose soul power levels are generally at least ten levels higher than theirs, and sometimes even two entire tiers higher.

But what's most astonishing is...

Under such harsh conditions, their winning percentage was still frighteningly high, with more wins than losses!

Such an unconventional achievement is bound to cause a sensation.

Nowadays, the name "Netherworld Fox" is known to everyone in the Great Soul Arena of Wuhun City.

It even attracted a large audience who were waiting specifically to watch the three-person match.

The waiter quickly completed the formalities and respectfully handed over a battle card: "Mr. Dai, everything is arranged for you. Please proceed to arena number three."

Dai Chengfeng took the battle cards and laughed loudly: "Let's go, girls, warm up and get ready!"

The three walked towards the players' tunnel.

As Hu Liena walked, she wondered curiously, "I wonder who my opponent will be in the first match today."

Zhu Zhuqing said coldly, "If you want to know, why don't you just ask that waiter?"

"Wouldn't that eliminate the sense of surprise?" Hu Liena blinked her right eye, her voice sweet and charming.

"Then don't ask."

"Hey? You little wildcat, I just love asking questions, so what if you bite me?"

"Ha! I don't bite dogs."

"Zhu! Zhu! Qing!"

Amid the two women's habitual banter, Dai Chengfeng and his two companions quickly stepped onto the arena.

Upon seeing their opponents, Dai Chengfeng, Zhu Zhuqing, and Hu Liena exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with amusement. "It turns out they're old friends!"
