Douluo's Soul Power increases by two levels every year

Chapter 424 Setting Sail!

P.S. Given Han Feng and his group's current strength, describing the Bloodthirsty Wolf Bandits and the Vast Ocean Battle Arena in detail would just be padding the word count, so they've set sail directly!

The next morning, the group of ten people and one cat quietly left Tiandou City. Han Feng and the others disliked the atmosphere of parting, and to ensure everything went smoothly, Han Feng activated the Supreme Defense Isolation Domain to isolate everyone's aura and try to avoid being discovered.

Whether they were ultimately discovered or not, no one knows, but neither the parents led by Zhang Lingling nor the teachers led by Flander showed up, so it must have been a success.

As for the Flame Spirit Cat...

Ever since it learned that Han Feng was leaving, it had been clinging to Han Feng's arms, looking like it would die if he didn't take it with him. Moreover, the Flame Spirit Cat wouldn't let anyone touch it except Han Feng and Xiao Wu. Helpless, Han Feng had no choice but to take the Flame Spirit Cat with him.

Bai Chenxiang cooperated without saying goodbye to Bai He, and resolutely embarked on the trial path to Poseidon Island!

At this stage, Bai Chenxiang is already detached from the team, and has not been in contact with anyone for more than ten days. Even with her only relative, Tang San, she has only met him a few days ago. Even with Ma Hongjun's persistent pursuit, Bai Chenxiang does not feel that she belongs to Shrek Academy. She made a great decision to leave her hometown and follow Han Feng and the other proud talents to the ocean!

If Bai Chenxiang had seen Bai He and the members of the Min clan before leaving, she worried that the decision she had made with great difficulty would collapse instantly!

Even so, on the way to Hanhai City, Bai Chenxiang still found it difficult to integrate into the group, which made her confused. Was it right or wrong for her to go to sea alone with Han Feng and the others?

Bai Chenxiang wasn't stupid. She could see clearly that everyone present, except for her, was either a close friend or a loving couple. Even Ye Lingling had known Oscar for two or three years. Even in front of Han Feng and the others, she was still a little reserved, and Oscar would subconsciously consider Ye Lingling's feelings. Only she was completely unable to fit in!

Even though Tang San was her cousin, she felt too embarrassed to interfere when she saw Tang San and Xiao Wu exchanging sweet nothings!

In fact, everyone present was shrewd; how could they not see Bai Chenxiang's loneliness?

It was all Han Feng and the others who did it on purpose. Although they wanted to comfort Bai Chenxiang and help her integrate into the team as soon as possible, everyone could also see Ma Hongjun's feelings for Bai Chenxiang.

In comparison, from any perspective, everyone would definitely be on Ma Hongjun's side.

Before this, Han Feng had always believed that so-called love at first sight was nothing more than lust at first sight, which arose because the other person's appearance just happened to match his sexual fetish that he had cultivated for decades. However, Ma Hongjun seemed to have shattered Han Feng's view.

This time, Fatty is serious!

Otherwise, no matter how close everyone is to Ma Hongjun, they wouldn't help him deceive a girl's feelings!

Of course, the group wouldn't ignore Bai Chenxiang indefinitely. They had already secretly agreed with Ma Hongjun that they would provide space for Ma Hongjun and Bai Chenxiang until they reached Hanhai City. If Ma Hongjun could win Bai Chenxiang over, that would be ideal. However, if Bai Chenxiang maintained her distance from Ma Hongjun, it would mean that she truly disliked him, and they couldn't force her. Even if Ma Hongjun was unwilling, the group would help Bai Chenxiang integrate into the team as quickly as possible!

It's fortunate that Bai Chenxiang has never been exposed to this kind of thing since she was a child. If it were an old playboy, he would have seen through everyone's tricks long ago!

Even the Flame Spirit Cat, who had been clinging to Han Feng's arms, saw through everyone's tricks!

Fortunately, the final result satisfied Ma Hongjun. The group set off from Tiandou City and took fifteen days to reach Hanhai City.

During these fifteen days, Ma Hongjun showed concern for Bai Chenxiang and tried his best to make her happy. In addition, since Ma Hongjun and Bai Chenxiang were the only two in the team who could fly, they naturally had more interactions.

Although no romantic scenes actually happened in the end, at least Bai Chenxiang no longer disliked Ma Hongjun as much as she did at the beginning. For Ma Hongjun at this stage, this is already a huge victory!

As the saying goes, even a good woman can be won over by a persistent suitor. Zhu Zhuqing's attitude towards Dai Mubai was obvious to all, but in the end, Dai Mubai still won the beauty's heart.

Although there must be a family marriage arrangement involved, that doesn't stop Ma Hongjun from using it to motivate himself!

It's laughable, but if outsiders knew about this, they would definitely mock Bai Chenxiang for being ungrateful. Ma Hongjun is a champion of the Soul Master Competition, a twenty-year-old Soul Emperor, and the owner of the top-tier Martial Soul Fire Phoenix. He still has to fawn over a Soul Master of the same age. In today's Soul Master world, probably few people can understand this!

But that's the truth; love isn't as cheap as people imagine.

It could even be said that in the world of Douluo Continent, love is exceptionally precious!

It's worth mentioning that on their way to Hanhai City, the group encountered a pack of wolf bandits—hundreds of thousand-year-old soul beasts plus a leader with 30,000 years of cultivation!

A few years ago, it might have taken some effort from everyone, but Han Feng and his group are no longer the same as before. A mere ten-thousand-year-old soul beast plus a group of thousand-year-old soul beasts are nothing to them. The five girls didn't even have to lift a finger or use any trump cards. The five boys easily swept them aside. The process was simple and straightforward, not even close to being dangerous!

Ma Hongjun naturally contributed the most, so it was a good opportunity for him to show off.

The 30,000-year-old wolf bandit leader also dropped a bloodthirsty left leg bone. Unfortunately, among the ten people, apart from Bai Chenxiang who missed out on Han Feng's generous donation, the others had already absorbed the left leg bone, or simply didn't care about it at all.

Bai Chenxiang, the only one who needed a soul bone, was not compatible with this bloodthirsty left leg bone, so he could only put it aside!

A group of ten people, with a 30,000-year-old left leg bone, yet no one absorbed it. Anyone who didn't know better would think they were ten Title Douluos with full soul bones!

A 30,000-year-old soul bone—even a Soul Douluo would be tempted!

In addition, in order to get used to the methods of the Sea Soul Masters in advance, the group deliberately found the Great Soul Arena in Hanhai City and prepared to participate in several Soul Battles.

Dai Mubai and Han Feng had originally discussed whether to bring the Double Kill Team back to the world, but after watching a complete battle between two Sea Soul Masters, they gave up on the idea—they were too weak!

Strictly speaking, it's not that the Sea Soul Masters are too weak, but rather that they are too strong!

Not only the two of them, but even the usually meticulous Tang San did not intend to take action himself, but simply observed from the audience.

According to the rules of the Great Soul Arena, Han Feng and Dai Mubai's opponents will most likely also be Soul Emperors. However, for them, Soul Emperor-level opponents are too weak. Once a Soul Master's cultivation breaks through to Soul Saint, they basically won't show their faces in the Great Soul Arena anymore.

Even if Han Feng and Dai Mubai were willing to engage in a spirit battle beyond their level, the Grand Spirit Arena would still need several days of preparation, partly for publicity and partly for hiring people.

The manager of a large Soul Arena is only at the level of a Soul King or Soul Emperor. What Soul Saint would be willing to reside permanently in a large Soul Arena in a city?

Han Feng, Tang San, and Dai Mubai did not intend to make a move, and Ning Rongrong, Xiao Wu, and Zhu Zhuqing also sat in the audience. In the end, only Ma Hongjun, Bai Chenxiang, Oscar, and Ye Lingling remained. The four of them formed two teams and signed up to participate in today's Soul Battle.

Oscar naturally teamed up with Ye Lingling and signed up for the Soul Emperor Battle, which made Ma Hongjun exclaim that he was a good brother and took Bai Chenxiang, who had no other choice, to participate in the Soul King Battle.

Although Ma Hongjun was already level 60, he had not absorbed any spirit rings under Han Feng's persuasion, and was still considered a Soul King according to the rules of the Great Soul Arena!

In the end, Oscar and Ye Lingling were unfortunately defeated. Oscar was undeniably strong. With his Replica Intestine, Oscar once fought two opponents at once, suppressing two Sea Soul Emperors. However, those two Sea Soul Emperors were not idiots. They quickly realized what was happening and hid in the pool. After Oscar's replication effect dissipated, they suddenly rushed out of the pool and, taking advantage of the natural terrain, forced Oscar out of the arena!

With Oscar defeated, Ye Lingling naturally chose to surrender.

The defeat of the two made everyone realize how terrifying the amplification of water to sea spirit masters was!

If a small pond is this large, imagine how vast and boundless the ocean would be—it would be practically a natural domain!

Ma Hongjun did win, perhaps to show off in front of Bai Chenxiang. He won in an extremely flamboyant manner, taking advantage of the phoenix's flight and the terrifying flames that could burn mountains and boil seas. Ma Hongjun set the entire pool on fire, creating a scene so exciting that people screamed!

Even after leaving the Great Battle Arena, Ma Hongjun continued to boast about his previous performance, but no one paid him any attention. Instead, he went straight to a ship merchant and bought a large ship in a very extravagant manner.

As Han Feng wished, the group also recruited several sailors to help with the loading and unloading of the ship.

But the archaeologists and other oddballs didn't fulfill Han Feng's wish.

Originally, the ship merchant saw that the group were not ordinary people, and that they were land-based soul masters who wanted to go to sea. He wanted to introduce them to an experienced old captain, but Han Feng refused.

According to Han Feng, the crew could easily handle normal weather changes at sea, so there was no need for a captain. However, if they encountered sea monsters or natural disasters that even Han Feng and his crew couldn't handle, then these captains, whose highest cultivation level was only Soul Emperor, would be of no use!

The most crucial point is that when these sea spirit masters heard that these land spirit masters were preparing to go to sea, they looked at them as if they were a flock of fat sheep. In addition, Han Feng and his group were young, and the disdain and amusement in their eyes were almost overflowing!

Out of compassion and concern for the lives of these old captains, Han Feng had no choice but to refuse them outright!

After resting overnight in Hanhai City, the group boarded the ship and set off early the next morning!

"Poseidon Island! I'm here!"

"Keep your voice down! Can't you see everyone around us looking at me like I'm an idiot?!"

"What's there to be afraid of!? How can a sparrow know the ambition of a swan!? What did Brother Feng say? Oh! I am a phoenix! Born to stand at the pinnacle of the heavens! I will surely ascend to the highest heavens!"

Hearing Ma Hongjun shout out his own childish remarks from that day with such vigor, Han Feng felt his scalp tingle. He practically dug out a two-bedroom apartment with his toes, wishing he could shut Ma Hongjun up!

"Brother Feng! Calm down!"

The next moment, Han Feng put his idea into action.

Under the rising sun and in the sea breeze, the sounds of laughter and playful banter echoed, gradually fading away until they disappeared into the horizon where the water and sky met!
