Douluo's Soul Power increases by two levels every year

Chapter 73 Qin Ming's Invitation

"Hey! Fengzi, you're not doing well either!?"

Exhausted, Han Feng was sent back to the back row by Tang San. With Ning Rongrong's help, he ate a few recovery sausages, and his complexion improved a little.

When Dai Mubai saw Han Feng looking exhausted, he immediately laughed and mocked him in a sarcastic tone. Although he himself was not in good condition, Zhu Zhuqing had completely handed over the control to him when he used the Martial Soul Fusion Skill, which made him feel very good. Now, seeing Han Feng sharing the hardships with him, he was even happier!

Ning Rongrong, standing to the side, also complained coquettishly, "It's always like this during Soul Battles, can't you ever slack off?"

Han Feng rolled his eyes: "Can I afford not to try my best? What if we lose?"

"Then I've already been working hard at cultivating!" Ning Rongrong pouted pitifully upon hearing this, looking adorable.

Han Feng listened but didn't say anything more. Ning Rongrong's hard work during this period was obvious to all. In just one or two months, she had already reached level 28.

"And you! Big Old Bai! What are you bragging about? Just now, who was that guy who was like a spineless shrimp, unable to even stand up!"

"That's still better than you!" Dai Mubai was in a good mood and didn't argue with Han Feng. He even whistled.

Meanwhile, Tang San, having drained Yu Tianheng's soul power, flashed to Xiao Wu's side. The cold light of his Eight Spider Lances was aimed directly at Ye Lingling's brow. He didn't say a word, but his meaning was already very clear.

Han Feng wasn't worried at all about Tang San revealing the Eight Spider Lances—Tang San was different from him. He had countless people protecting him, both openly and secretly. The Haotian Douluo alone was enough to protect him. Unlike himself, if he revealed the Void Mask, who knew how many people would covet it!

Oscar, watching from a distance, clicked his tongue in disbelief: "That young couple is bullying a little girl!"

"Are you thinking of defecting to the enemy?" Han Feng asked jokingly upon hearing this.

"No, no! How could that be?" Oscar chuckled sheepishly and quickly denied it.

"I surrender!"

At this moment, only Ye Lingling remained in the Royal Fighting Team. Although her soul power was almost undamaged and her cultivation level was not low, she was a support healing soul master. How could she have any room to resist? She quickly admitted defeat without the slightest hesitation, fearing that Tang San's spider spear would fall.

Actually, Ye Lingling was quite pitiful. Under the Shrek team's tight rhythm and layered calculations, Ye Lingling's Nine Hearts Begonia had no use at all. She didn't even have time to heal her teammates before they were all eliminated!

With Ye Lingling's surrender, the defeat of the Royal Fighting Team, which had dominated the Soto Grand Arena for over a month, was completely declared. Cheers and wails echoed from the audience – some were excited by Shrek Academy's strength, while others felt sorrow and despair over their own circumstances.

In the VIP lounge of the Royal Fighting Team, a refined young man stood up, turned around and left the lounge, a smile still on his lips, seemingly in a good mood.

In the VIP lounge of the Shrek team, Zhao Wuji and Flander jumped up excitedly. The two dignified Soul Saints were as happy as children at this moment.

The master wasn't as excited as they were. Although he was also happy for his students' victory, he was also worried about Yu Tianheng.

The master knew how proud Yu Tianheng was, and he worried that Yu Tianheng would be discouraged by this defeat.

Thinking of this, the master sighed softly, said something to Flander, and turned to leave the lounge.

"Brother Dai! Han Feng! You have no idea how amazing your battle was! A giant of fire clad in armor, with flames roaring as he moved; a giant tiger with black stripes and a white body, sending four Soul Masters flying with two slaps! The entire Soul Arena could only see the two of you! So cool! So cool! You have to let me go next time!"

By this time, everyone had returned. Ma Hongjun was waiting for them at the entrance of the passage. Ever since he saw Han Feng and the others, he had been talking non-stop. His chubby face was full of excitement, as if he, not Han Feng and the others, had been the one who had been dominating the scene just now.

Hearing the voices of the crowd, Flander and Zhao Wuji's faces flashed with relief. They opened the door for everyone, and Flander shouted, "Little monsters! You've all done a great job! You haven't let Shrek down!"

Everyone laughed upon hearing this!

Flander looked at everyone with satisfaction and laughed loudly, "Tonight's victory celebration is on me!"

"Why should the teacher spend money? Let me treat you tonight!" Flander had just finished speaking when he heard a refined and gentle voice coming from the doorway.

Hearing the familiar voice, Zhao Wuji and Flander both looked towards the door in surprise. There stood a refined-looking young man with glasses, smiling at them. Seeing them looking at him, he respectfully greeted, "Teacher Zhao! Dean!"

"Hahaha! Good lad! It seems it won't be long before you surpass us old folks!" Zhao Wuji laughed heartily three times upon seeing the young man, then familiarly put his arm around the young man's shoulder and laughed happily.

"Xiao Ming! You've really brought honor to our academy!" Flander said with a smile.

"It's all thanks to the teachers!" The young man chuckled modestly. Even he himself hadn't expected that Flander and Zhao Wuji would become so 'approachable' after such a long separation.

Seeing the three of them acting like old acquaintances, the Shrek team members were all taken aback—if they remembered correctly, that young man should be the leader of the Royal Fighting Team, right?

Finally, Dai Mubai realized what was happening and said hesitantly, "The dean called him Xiao Ming... Could he be our senior, Qin Ming, the Fiery Wolf?"

"Qin Ming? The youngest Soul Emperor on the continent!? He's our senior!?" Ning Rongrong exclaimed upon hearing Qin Ming's name—the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's intelligence capabilities were quite formidable.

Han Feng secretly rolled his eyes. He didn't have time to dwell on the veracity of this so-called "youngest Soul Emperor," and simply nodded: "Judging from the Dean and Teacher Zhao's attitudes, it's probably true!"

At this point, everyone's expressions turned somewhat strange.

Qin Ming is a former student of Shrek Academy and the leader of the Royal Fighting Team. Now the Royal Fighting Team has been defeated by Qin Ming's juniors. What a coincidence!

"Oh! By the way! Xiaoming! You were serious about treating us, right?" After chatting for a few minutes, Flander immediately revealed his stingy nature, looking at Qin Ming with a sly grin. His miserly appearance made Zhao Wuji feel ashamed.

Qin Ming chuckled twice, thinking to himself that the dean hadn't changed after all: "Of course it counts!"

After Qin Ming finished speaking, Flander immediately beamed with joy. Saving money on a meal was naturally the best thing, as the meal the day before yesterday had cost him quite a bit!

But Qin Ming quickly changed the subject, his expression becoming solemn: "Actually, there's another matter I'd like to discuss with the dean..."

"What's the matter?! We're all family here, no need to be so coy!" Flander was overjoyed to hear that Qin Ming was going to treat him, and readily agreed.

"Actually, it's like this. Dean, as you know, I'm currently a tutor at the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy. But as you can probably guess, most of the students who can study at that kind of academy are nobles, spoiled and pampered. Although they have good talent, their success rate is very low. We are currently desperately seeking talent!"

"So what I'm trying to say is... if any of my juniors are willing to join the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, I will definitely fight for the best treatment for them!" Qin Ming tried to say it in the most tactful tone, but the meaning was already very clear.

"Impossible!" Upon hearing Qin Ming's words, Flander's expression changed drastically. He roared, his voice solemn and authoritative, "They are all students of Shrek Academy; there is absolutely no way they could join some Heaven Dou Royal Academy!"

Flander's outburst left Qin Ming somewhat bewildered. Just as he was about to say something to appease Flander, he heard Grandmaster's voice from outside the door: "Shrek Academy agrees to this!"

Flander was startled and looked towards the door, exclaiming in astonishment, "Xiao Gang!?"

The master walked in from outside. He had just seen Yu Tianheng, and his face still bore a resemblance to his, but he completely ignored Flander, walking straight past him and saying to Qin Ming, "It's not impossible for our Shrek Academy students to go to your Heaven Dou Royal Academy! But we have one condition!"

Qin Ming quickly asked, "Master, please speak!"

"Let our students participate in the next Continental Advanced Soul Master Tournament!" Grandmaster said decisively. "If you agree to this request, we can join the Heaven Dou Royal Academy; otherwise, it's absolutely impossible!"

"Yu Xiaogang! Do you know what you're saying?!" Before Qin Ming could answer, Flander rushed up to the master and roared angrily, even calling the master by his name, which showed how volatile Flander's emotions were.

Shrek Academy is the culmination of Flander's life's work, and he will never allow it to be merged into another school!

The master glanced at Flanders indifferently; he understood his old friend's feelings perfectly, but he still said, "I'm seeking a way out for the children!"

"You yourself know the children's talents. Shrek Academy cannot meet their needs or provide them with the best education! Keeping them at Shrek Academy will only hinder their development!"

The master's words were piercing and aggressive, leaving Flander speechless!

The master and Flander started arguing, and no one dared to speak, not even Zhao Wuji.
