Douluo's Soul Power increases by two levels every year

Chapter 148 The Unfathomable Woman

P.S. I'm thinking of giving Dai Mubai a little power-up, the Saint King form from the manga. It doesn't really affect the outline, I just think that form looks really cool, so I'd like to add it. I'd like to ask for your opinions~

"Big Brother Bai... I need an explanation!"

The next day, Han Feng and Dai Mubai walked on the streets of Tiandou City. Neither of them looked very good, but the difference was that Han Feng's face was ashen with embarrassment, while Dai Mubai's face, in addition to a strange helplessness, also carried a hint of gloating and smirking.

Hearing Han Feng's questioning voice, Dai Mubai cried out indignantly, "Is this my fault?! How did I teach you?"

"I told you not to be so deliberate, but you went and, without saying a word, you dragged Rongrong away. Anyone who didn't know better would think you were planning to kidnap her!"

Upon hearing this, Han Feng looked somewhat embarrassed and retorted, "This is partly my fault, but what about the rest? You told me to be more tactful, and I did as you said, right? And what was the result?"

"Yes! You're being tactful! I asked you to find some common topics between you two, and you talked to Rongrong about fighting spirits and the development of your self-created spirit skills!? I asked you to find an opportunity to praise Rongrong, and you actually said that Rongrong isn't as willful as before!? I told you to try not to say anything meaningless, and you, either asking what time it is or saying that the weather is really nice today! You're something else!"

"And another thing! I told you to pay attention to where Rongrong's gaze lingers, and what did you do? I told you to create opportunities for your next date, and what did you do? I even planned the route for you, and what did you do? You forgot as soon as you stepped out the door!? My people were waiting for you in the same spot all morning, and you just walked away!?"

Dai Mubai has been wronged!

He really tried his best, sharing all his experience, but Han Feng, that simpleton, didn't remember anything. When he was with Ning Rongrong, Han Feng didn't seem to do anything unusual, but as soon as the purpose changed, Han Feng's true colors were revealed!

Han Feng took Ning Rongrong around for a whole morning, saying nothing he should have said but spouting a lot of nonsense; he did nothing he should have done but did everything he shouldn't have done!

The final date fell through, the confession plan was shelved, and the soul bone wasn't even delivered.

Dai Mubai overestimated himself and underestimated Han Feng; in short—he couldn't carry him.

It's fortunate that Ning Rongrong was patient; if it were any other girl, she would have turned her back and left long ago!

Putting everything else aside, just take Zhu Zhuqing for example. If Dai Mubai dared to treat her like that, Han Feng wouldn't be able to find Dai Mubai for half a month!

Faced with Dai Mubai's barrage of questions, Han Feng sighed helplessly. What could he do? This was truly the first time he'd ever done this in his life and the next!

"Oh no! What should we do then?!" Han Feng asked in despair.

Dai Mubai scratched the goosebumps all over his body, grinned, and shrugged, saying, "Either you go back now and tell Rongrong you like her, or you'll have to wait for another chance! Don't even think about it anytime soon..."

After listening, Han Feng hesitated for a moment, but still decided to choose the latter.

Dai Mubai glanced at Han Feng, his face showing a helpless expression, but secretly he was delighted. He used to envy Han Feng for having Ning Rongrong pursuing him, while he himself had repeatedly failed. Now, it's all the same to him!

Thinking of this, Dai Mubai patted Han Feng on the shoulder and said meaningfully, "Come on! I'll treat you to dinner! Good brother! We'll share joys and sorrows!"

Han Feng rolled his eyes. He felt that Dai Mubai's words had a hidden meaning, but when he heard that he could get a free meal, Han Feng still nodded.

"During the competition, I didn't expect anyone to have the leisure to go to a restaurant for a meal!?" Dai Mubai and Han Feng were about to head towards the restaurant when they heard an untimely voice behind them.

The two frowned simultaneously and slowly turned around, only to see a pretty girl in the uniform of Blazing Fire Academy standing behind them, her fair face showing provocation, followed by two composed young men.

Han Feng was in a bad mood and didn't think too much about it, simply asking Dai Mubai, "You know him?"

Dai Mubai shook his head, the smugness in his heart fading, and said with brimming tears in his eyes, "I thought you knew him..."

Seeing Han Feng and Dai Mubai's nonchalant attitude, a shadow crossed the woman's beautiful face. She curled her lips into a cold laugh and said, "You two don't recognize me? No problem, let's get to know each other now!"

As she spoke, the woman flicked her finger, and a ball of blazing flame shot out from her fingertip, attacking Dai Mubai and Han Feng!

Han Feng narrowed his eyes, grabbed the ball of flame with one hand, and extinguished it with a gentle squeeze. His expression turned hostile. On the other side, Dai Mubai was also surrounded by a faint aura of killing intent, clearly ready for battle. Private duels were forbidden in Tiandou City? With the Crown Prince and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School present, what did a private duel matter? Besides, the other side had provoked them first!

They attacked as soon as they met, clearly indicating they had ill intentions!

Seeing Han Feng effortlessly extinguish her flames, the woman's eyes lit up, and she said, "As expected of Shrek Academy's two biggest trump cards! They really have some strength! More interesting than Tang San!"

To her surprise, Dai Mubai and Han Feng completely ignored her, exchanged a glance, and began talking to each other.

Dai Mubai asked calmly, "Are you planning to just criticize directly, or go through the proper procedures?"

Han Feng shook his head and said in a deep voice, "I'm not in the mood today!"

Dai Mubai understood: "Then let's just beat them up and run them away!"

Upon hearing Dai Mubai's words, the two young men behind the woman's faces darkened, and they stared intently at Han Feng and Dai Mubai.

The woman said in a somber tone, "You really don't recognize me? We're Shrek Academy's opponents in the next match!"

Dai Mubai chuckled wickedly, saying with a hint of mockery, "Sorry! Fengzi and I haven't watched the games in a long time! You're not worthy!"

"Arrogant!"

Upon hearing this, the woman's fair face contorted, and she let out a shrill scream. A fiery red shadow rose up from behind her, and with a flick of its arms, two rings of fire flew out, attacking Han Feng and Dai Mubai!

Seeing this, Dai Mubai sneered, his evil eyes and white tiger-like aura activating, and he charged forward recklessly!

Han Feng summoned the Blazing Shield and instinctively blocked the two fire rings without even using his soul skill!

The Shield of Blazing Sky is truly fire-immune; even Ma Hongjun's Phoenix Fire couldn't harm Han Feng, let alone this woman's flames.

In that instant, Dai Mubai had already rushed in front of the woman, his sharp tiger claws reaching out, about to grab her!

boom!

But how could the two men behind the woman, who had been preparing for a long time, let Dai Mubai succeed? Before Dai Mubai could make a move, the older-looking youth suddenly appeared in front of Dai Mubai, his martial spirit manifesting, a single horn growing from his brow. He tried to block the attack head-on with his fist against the claw, but Dai Mubai was no longer the same as before. The power of a single claw was not something that could be blocked so easily!

The young man groaned, and although he had no obvious injuries, he took three steps back.

Seeing this, another youth quickly drew two fire swords and slashed at Dai Mubai. The fiery sword energy forced Dai Mubai to retreat back to Han Feng's side.

"Interesting..." Dai Mubai spread his tiger claws slightly and smiled with interest.

These two young men are actually Soul Masters!

At their age, they should be among the best in this Soul Master Competition. But unfortunately, just as Dai Mubai said, he and Han Feng haven't watched the competition for a long time. Even if they are Soul Masters, they are not worth paying too much attention to!

Han Feng's eyes twitched slightly. He had already guessed the identities of the three people in front of him when the two young men made their move.

The three main Soul Masters of Blazing Fire Academy: Huo Wu, Huo Wushuang, and a Fire Sword Soul Master whose name I can't recall!

"How dare you lay a hand on me!?" Huo Wu raised her eyebrows and shouted fiercely when she saw Huo Wushuang being repelled by Dai Mubai.

Han Feng looked at Huo Wu with disgust and sneered, "Nonsense! Why wouldn't we dare to make a move?! Have you forgotten that you attacked first!"

After saying that, Han Feng put on the Flame Dragon Armor, and Dai Mubai also took out the Gengjin Heavenly Fiend Halberd, their two pairs of pupils staring intently at Huo Wu and the other two.

Huo Wu was momentarily stunned, her expression shifting between anger and uncertainty, with a hint of ferocity flashing across her face.

Huo Wushuang calmly grabbed Huo Wu's hand and said in a deep voice, "Sister! Let's go!"

After Huo Wushuang finished speaking, he ignored Huo Wu's gloomy face and turned to leave. They were indeed in the wrong today. If they continued to entangle themselves, it would be another matter whether they could be a match for Han Feng and Dai Mubai. If things really got out of hand, it would definitely not do them any good!

Huo Wu, still defiant after being taken away by Huo Wushuang, shouted, "If you've got the guts, let's meet on the field tomorrow! Don't hide like a coward!"

Han Feng was in a bad mood today and didn't seem like he was going to let Huo Wu and the other two go so easily, but Dai Mubai stopped him.

"We should be careful during the competition! Lest some unscrupulous people use this as an excuse to cause trouble!" Dai Mubai advised. "That woman wants us to play, right? We can just go on stage and teach her a lesson!"

Ever since Ning Fengzhi brought the Crown Prince to visit Shrek Academy, Bishop Salas of the Spirit Hall has regarded Shrek Academy as a thorn in his side. Now that Salas has caught them red-handed, it is a troublesome matter for both them personally and for the academy.

Han Feng knew that Dai Mubai made sense, so he nodded and put away the Blazing Shield and the Flame Dragon Armor.
