After being scolded by Bibi Dong, Xuan Hao immediately became obedient.

"I understand, sister is right."

……

After the test went wrong, the three continued their journey.

However, luck is sometimes a very mysterious thing.

Despite having Bibi Dong, a top-tier radar, the soul beasts they encountered throughout the entire afternoon were either too young or completely unrelated to their species.

They are either plant-type spirit beasts that are hundreds of years old, or some strange insects.

As night fell and the forest became pitch black, they still found nothing.

Bibi Dong wasn't in a hurry, and led the two to a sheltered high ground.

"Nana, go set up the tent."

After giving Hu Liena her instructions, Bibi Dong turned to Xuan Hao and said, "Come with me."

Xuan Hao's heart skipped a beat.

Late at night, a lone man and woman... oops, an orphan and a widow... no, that's not right either.

In short, the atmosphere of this one-on-one conversation made him instinctively feel uneasy.

But he still obediently followed.

The two walked to the foot of a huge ancient tree. By the faint moonlight, Bibi Dong turned around and stared intently at Xuan Hao.

"The Golden Dragon is a pure strength-attribute soul beast, possessing the ultimate physical destructive power. It can even be said that it is the nemesis of all the fancy elements."

"However, when I was testing your physical limits during the day, besides that domineering power, there was another fluctuation within you."

Xuan Hao's heart skipped a beat.

“Moreover…” Bibi Dong stretched out her hand, a faint glimmer of light swirling around her fingertips, “After entering the Star Dou Great Forest, the elemental energy here is far more concentrated than outside. My spiritual power sensed that the wind, fire, water, earth… all the elements around me are subtly drawing closer to me, showing a kind of… affinity.”

"A pure power-based martial soul cannot attract elements; in fact, it may even repel them."

Bibi Dong stepped forward, bent down, and stared directly into Xuan Hao's panicked eyes with her pale purple eyes.

"So, little guy, you've been hiding your true abilities."

"You must have another martial soul."

Although it is a question, the tone is that of a firm statement.

Xuan Hao took a half step back, somewhat embarrassed, and leaned against the tree trunk.

He also knew that in the face of a Title Douluo's keen observation skills, especially an expert like Bibi Dong who also possessed twin martial souls, it would be almost impossible to remain hidden forever.

Moreover, since we've already boarded the pirate ship... ah no, since we've already accepted Bibi Dong's help, hiding it would only make us seem dishonest and easily arouse suspicion.

"Okay, sister is really amazing, nothing can be hidden from you."

Xuan Hao sighed and resignedly extended his left hand.

"hold head high--"

This time, the dragon's roar was different from the previous deep and majestic one; it was clearer and higher, as if it came from the heavens above.

The elements in the surrounding space instantly became agitated, and multicolored light spots converged wildly.

On Xuan Hao's left palm, a miniature dragon, entirely silver-white with exquisitely beautiful lines, slowly emerged.

Its scales have a strange, translucent texture, as if they are formed by the crystallization of countless elements, and with each breath, it absorbs and exhales the elemental energy between heaven and earth.

Lord of the Elements—Silver Dragon!

Bibi Dong was completely stunned.

Looking at the silver dragon radiating a dreamlike glow, she recalled the domineering golden dragon from earlier that day, and the ancient knowledge about soul beasts in her mind seemed to be violently impacted at that moment.

"Silver Dragon..."

Bibi Dong muttered to herself, her eyes filled with disbelief, "In the theoretical consensus of the Soul Master world, all dragon-type Soul Beasts that control the elements can be traced back to the Silver Dragon lineage. But the real Silver Dragon, like the Golden Dragon, is an ancestral creature that only exists in myths and legends."

"The golden dragon controls ultimate power and destruction, while the silver dragon controls ultimate elements and creation."

"These two diametrically opposed, even mutually exclusive, forces..."

"It actually... appeared on one person at the same time?"

Chapter 7 Sugar-Coated Bullets

……

Recovering from her shock, Bibi Dong gave Xuan Hao a deep look, her gaze filled not only with inquiry but also with an unwavering determination to succeed.

Twin martial souls, and the legendary existence of the Golden Dragon and Silver Dragon, which stand at the pinnacle of soul beasts.

She was determined to take the child back.

But she also knew that the child had a thorn in his side, and that the Spirit Hall was the culprit who "killed his parents" and "abandoned him."

Forcibly taking him away would only breed resentment in him. What she needs is a sense of belonging from him, for him to willingly call her "teacher".

Back at the camp, Hu Liena had already quickly set up the tent.

To Xuanhao's surprise, there were two tents standing in the camp.

One of them was the one that Bibi Dong and Hu Liena used before, and the other was brand new.

"Go inside and sleep," Bibi Dong said, pointing to the new tent.

Seeing Xuan Hao hesitate, Bibi Dong raised an eyebrow and added, "Don't even think about sleeping in a tree. There are plenty of soul beasts around here at night. If some blind fool snatches you away in the middle of the night, I'll have to spend time retrieving you, which is a hassle."

After saying that, she didn't wait for Xuan Hao's response and directly pulled Hu Liena into another tent.

"Good night." Before entering the tent, Hu Liena winked at Xuan Hao with a sly yet friendly smile.

Xuan Hao stood there, looking at the cozy-looking tent in front of him, and touched his nose.

He knew, of course, that Bibi Dong was making excuses. With the strength of a Title Douluo, even if he were carried away from a hundred meters away, she could instantly scatter the soul beast's ashes.

"Sugar-coated bullets..."

Xuan Hao sighed, but his body betrayed him and he crawled inside.

After all, who would want to sleep on a hard tree branch when there's a soft mat to sleep on?

Since you can't resist, you can only enjoy it.

The tent was covered with thick blankets, which kept out the moisture from the ground.

Just as Xuan Hao was about to lie down, his gaze was suddenly drawn to an oil paper package on his pillow.

He picked it up and saw that it was the same bag of Black Horned Beef jerky that Hu Liena had handed to him during the day, but which he had refused because of his "face".

Xuan Hao paused for a moment, his hand holding the jerky tightening slightly.

"Tch... trying to win people's hearts."

He muttered something, but the corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn up slightly.

This time, he didn't hesitate. He tore open the packaging and started eating it in big bites.

Really fragrant.

……

Xuanhao slept soundly that night.

Although located in the perilous Star Dou Great Forest, with a peak powerhouse like Bibi Dong by your side and Ghost Douluo guarding the night from the shadows, this place is probably safer than the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace.

The next morning, the three set off again.

Perhaps it was because of the "sweet talk" last night, or perhaps it was the goodwill that Bibi Dong and Hu Liena intentionally or unintentionally released, that the atmosphere between the three of them was no longer as stiff and awkward as it had been at the beginning.

For the next three days, they wandered around the perimeter of the mixed zone.

But luck is a hard thing to predict. Although Bibi Dong's spiritual power covered a very wide area, most of the soul beasts she encountered in these three days were not satisfactory.

"That won't do, that's a four-hundred-year-old wind baboon, too weak."

"That datura snake is old enough, but its attributes don't match."

Bibi Dong had extremely high standards for Hu Liena's second spirit ring, preferring quality over quantity.

Bibi Dong's plan for Xuan Hao is also very clear.

"Even in the Star Dou Great Forest, sub-dragon-type soul beasts are extremely rare."

During a break, Bibi Dong handed Xuan Hao a water bottle and patiently instructed him, "Since we can't find the dragon, let's set our sights on soul beasts with top-tier strength attributes."

"For example, the Vajra Tiger, the Mighty Ape, or the Ironclad Tyrannosaurus. Although these spirit beasts are not of true dragon blood, their innate abilities are extremely compatible with your Golden Dragon Martial Soul, allowing you to develop its ultimate power to the greatest extent."

Xuan Hao listened attentively, occasionally asking a few questions, which Bibi Dong answered one by one.

Through these questions and answers and daily interactions, Xuan Hao's wariness towards Bi Bi Dong gradually melts away.

After all, who could resist a stunningly beautiful, incredibly powerful, and caring older sister?

Finally, on the fourth day after entering the forest, things took a turn for the better.

Around noon, in a secluded valley, they discovered a fox that was entirely black with a third vertical eye between its eyebrows—the Three-Eyed Demon Fox.

"Around 750 years, dual cultivation of mental and charm attributes, it's practically tailor-made for you."

A hint of satisfaction flashed in Bibi Dong's eyes, and she immediately struck, severely injuring him.

Hu Liena didn't waste the opportunity, stepping forward to finish off the enemy and beginning to absorb the spirit ring. The process went smoothly, and an hour later, she successfully advanced to the Great Spirit Master level, gaining a very powerful charm control skill.

With Hu Liena's problem solved, the remaining issue is Xuan Hao.

Hu Liena was a smart girl. She could see how much her teacher valued Xuan Hao and understood her teacher's intention to win over this genius boy.

So, during the rest of the journey, she took even better care of Xuan Hao, acting like a caring senior sister. She not only shared her food with him but also helped him when the road became difficult.

Perhaps good luck is contagious.

That night, just as darkness enveloped the forest and the three had finished setting up their tents and preparing to start a fire, a wild tiger's roar shattered the tranquility of the night.

"Roar--!!"
