Douluo Continent: After their charm was maxed out, they became simps.

Chapter 27: Meeting Meng Yiran and Being Recognized as the Chosen One

Inside the cafeteria.

The Shrek Seven Devils sat around the table eating.

"Xiao Wu, has Young Master Xia always worn a mask since he was a child?" Dai Mubai asked curiously.

"No, Dad only put on the mask when he obtained his third soul skill," Xiao Wu shook her head and said.

Ning Rongrong, who was listening nearby, was startled, and then excitedly said:

"Haven't you seen what Xia Bai looks like?"

"Is it pretty? What does it look like?"

The others also turned their curious gazes toward Xiao Wu.

"Hmm~" Xiao Wu thought for a while.

"So handsome!"

"My dad still has a huge fan base in Nottingham!"

"and…………"

Xiao Wu excitedly explained Xia Bai's experiences in Notting City to everyone, eliciting gasps of surprise from the crowd from time to time.

Tang San, who was standing nearby, would occasionally chime in with his own words.

In an instant, the atmosphere among everyone became much warmer.

Flander, who was peeping at the cafeteria entrance, also showed a satisfied expression upon seeing this.

"Master, Young Master Xia is truly amazing!"

Flander looked at the Shrek Seven Devils getting along well not far away and couldn't help but give them a thumbs up.

What I had struggled with for so long but couldn't handle, Young Master Xia managed to suppress these little monsters as soon as he stepped in.

"Of course, there's nothing Xia Baizi can't do in this world!" Yu Xiaogang's eyes were full of admiration.

"Master, didn't you mention before that there's a fan club for Young Master Xia? Do you think I'm qualified to join?" Flander whispered.

"Of course, come on, I'll tell you about the rules and requirements of Young Master Xia's fan club."

Yu Xiaogang patted Flander on the shoulder and walked towards the room.

...............

After Xia Bai's special training last time, the relationship between the Shrek Seven Devils improved somewhat.

Ning Rongrong's spoiled temper has softened considerably, and she's now more willing to exercise with everyone.

Dai Mubai was too lazy to compete with Tang San and Xiao Wu, those two monsters, and instead turned to urge Ma Hongjun and Oscar on.

As dawn broke, Flander led the Shrek Seven Devils to the playground.

"Little Three, your soul power has reached level 39. It's time to hunt your fourth soul ring."

"And Oscar, whose soul power has reached level 29, is hunting for his third soul ring."

"I plan to have Teacher Zhao Wuji take you to the Star Dou Great Forest to obtain spirit rings."

Flander nodded to Zhao Wuji beside him.

"Everyone, get ready, we'll be setting off soon!" Zhao Wuji said, looking at the few little monsters in front of him.

"Wait a minute! My soul power is also stuck at level 59. I'm getting ready to hunt for the next soul ring."

Xia Bai descended from the sky on his flying sword.

"Wow! Flying on a sword! That's so cool!"

Oscar stared wide-eyed at Xia Bai, who was riding a flying sword and exuding an ethereal aura.

Flying on a sword! How many people dream of being a martial arts hero!

"Of course, Young Master Xia!" Flander nodded hastily.

After everyone was ready, they headed towards the Star Dou Great Forest.

…………

Not far from the entrance to the Star Dou Great Forest, the group found a hotel to check into, preparing to rest for a while before heading to the Star Dou Great Forest the next day.

The next morning, the group entered the outer area of ​​the Star Dou Great Forest.

"Then let's part ways here!" Xia Bai said to the crowd, standing on his flying sword.

He was preparing his sixth spirit ring to go to the inner area to hunt spirit beasts that were over 10 years old.

"Hmm? Are you alone?" Zhao Wuji asked with some concern.

"No problem!" Xia Bai gave an OK sign and then rode his flying sword at top speed towards the front.

"Isn't he afraid of dying going to the inner perimeter alone?" Ning Rongrong couldn't help but worry as she watched Xia Bai head towards the inner perimeter of the Star Dou Great Forest.

Let alone a mere Soul King like him, even a Title Douluo wouldn't dare to venture rashly into the inner perimeter of the Star Dou Great Forest!

"Don't worry! My dad is very strong! Besides, the soul beasts won't hurt him." Xiao Wu said calmly.

On several previous occasions, she had accompanied Xia Bai on hunting for spirit rings out of concern for his safety.

Then I encountered something I'll never forget in my life.

All beasts came to pay homage!

Almost all the spirit beasts seemed to have contracted some kind of serious illness, surrounding their father and sending out mating signals.

They didn't care at all that their father was a human being.

Tang San, standing beside him, also remained calm.

In his heart, Young Master Xia was invincible!

The others breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that Tang San and Xiao Wu weren't worried.

"Alright, let's look for suitable spirit rings for Xiao San and Oscar!"

Zhao Wuji waved his hand and led his team to search the outer area.

As a mere Soul Saint, he dared not venture into the inner area.

...............

Deep within the outer area.

A girl with short, dark blue hair is being chased by a crested serpent that is 8 to 10 meters long and has a deep red tail.

Judging from its age, it should be 5000 years old.

"Damn it! If I hadn't gotten separated from my mother-in-law and been injured, I wouldn't be in such a sorry state!" Meng Yiran frowned as she looked at the crested snake following closely behind.

"【Serpent Blade】!"

Meng Yiran summoned her martial soul, the Snake Head Cane, and activated her first soul skill.

However, her attack only grazed the crested snake.

Enraged by the attack, the crested serpent with its large, tree-like tail lashed out at Meng Yiran.

Meng Yiran was whipped into a tree by the tail.

"It's over!"

Meng Yiran coughed up blood, looking at the enormous crested serpent before her, and despair welled up in her heart.

I am currently in the deepest part of the outer perimeter, only a few kilometers away from the inner perimeter.

No one will come to save me.

However, just as Meng Yiran closed her eyes in despair, a deafening clap of thunder suddenly rang out.

Suddenly, she smelled the aroma of roasted meat.

Immediately following was a magnetic voice.

Are you alright?

Upon hearing the sound, Meng Yiran slowly opened her eyes.

All I could see was in mid-air.

A figure dressed in black, wearing a round face mask, and standing on a deep purple longsword.

Like a peerless sword immortal high above the nine heavens.

Meng Yiran was instantly captivated by his single glance.

That was a brilliant save!

He was the man she had always dreamed of!

Xia Bai noticed that Meng Yiran's gaze was strange, so he prepared to say goodbye and leave.

However, Meng Yiran suddenly shouted:

"Wait a moment!"

"What is it?"

For some reason, Meng Yiran didn't want to see Xia Bai leave! She pointed to the half-dead crested snake beside her and said:

"I'm preparing to absorb this thousand-year soul ring. Could you please protect me during the process?"

Meng Yiran said expectantly.

She didn't know what had suddenly happened to her, but she just couldn't bear to let the person in front of her leave.
