Douluo Continent: My Martial Soul is the Ten Ferocious Heavenly Horned Ant

That's right! The last time I met this direct descendant of the Qian family, she was a six-winged angel filled with light and holiness. How come she has fallen into darkness after appearing again?

Unfortunately, after thinking it over and over...

Dugu Bo still couldn't figure out what was going on, so he eventually gave up thinking about it and instead asked about what he was most concerned about right now.

"Yanzi, can you tell Grandpa why you've been so down lately?"

"Do you tube!"

Could it be because of a man?

"no!"

"Is that His Highness Dongqing?"

"Grandpa, you're so annoying. I've already said it's not because of men. Also, can you please stop interfering in my personal affairs? I, Dugu Yan, would rather jump off this building and die here, and stay single for the rest of my life than care about that kind of philandering man."

Faced with Dugu Bo's incessant stream of personal questions, Dugu Yan angrily retorted with a barrage of words.

Then she stood up from the edge of the stream next to the artificial hill, without even putting on her shoes. Her fair and delicate feet stepped on the cobblestone ground, and she ran all the way back to her room.

The door slammed shut with a loud "bang".

Seeing this scene.

Dugu Bo shook his head slightly, then sighed in a deep voice, "Sigh... Silly Yanzi, you said it wasn't because of a man, but your emotions are written all over your face."

Having watched her grow up, how could he, as her grandfather, not know what kind of person Dugu Yan was?

She wanted a man, but for some reason he didn't understand, she became completely despondent.

Meanwhile, inside the room, Dugu Yan buried herself in the covers, her large, bright green eyes wide open, clutching a newspaper with a full-body photo of Dong Qing in her hand.

For some reason, her face gradually turned red, and her body temperature slowly rose.

After half an hour.

[Unilateral spiritual class change completed, title: Skyhorn Ant Knight.]

"I think I'm sick, and very sick. All I can think about is that jerk. His image, his face, his smile, they just won't leave my mind."

Dugu Yan looked at the newspaper in her hand, at Dong Qing on the page, at his face that she both loved and hated, and couldn't help but lean down and get closer.

Some people are simply not meant to be met, especially for Dugu Yan. She shouldn't have met Dong Qing, this bad man who made it difficult for her to control her behavior.

Sometimes, the line between liking someone and disliking someone is very blurry.

Dugu Yan undoubtedly disliked Dong Qing; she disliked his womanizing, his lack of tact, and his lack of initiative.

For some people...

Liking someone and disliking someone are two completely different things that can happen at the same time, and Dugu Yan is undoubtedly such a person.

She both disliked and liked Dongqing.

Otherwise, how could she allow him to touch her? In fact, when she was possessed by her martial spirit and transformed into a snake-woman, her snake tail would unconsciously wrap around him.

For Dugu Yan, Dongqing is very special.

He was the first man to dance with her at the Tian Dou Palace banquet in front of everyone, and also the first man to touch her slender waist.

For both men and women, the waist is a very special place—a place where you feel nothing when you touch it yourself, but a stranger feels it deeply.

Generally speaking, if she allows you to touch her waist for an extended period of time, she is basically allowing you to further develop your relationship.

The same was true for Dugu Yan. She didn't know if Dong Qing was truly unaware or pretending not to know. During that Tian Dou Palace banquet, his hand was always on her waist.

The proper etiquette for the dance only required a light touch, but he actually placed it on her waist.

Chapter 413, As for Shrek Academy, it's probably just a diploma mill.

Just as Dugu Yan was preparing to undergo another mental transformation, an aged voice came from outside the tightly closed door.

"Yanzi, you should head out now. Don't forget, your team, the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy Team One, is playing against the Heavenly Water Academy Team today."

Dugu Bo simply gave a reminder, and then left.

As for Dugu Yan's mental transformation, he was naturally completely unaware of it. In any case, he would never use his mental power to spy on his relatives.

In the Douluo Continent, using mental power to spy on others is an act that is extremely envied. Even close relatives would not use mental power to secretly spy on someone.

Knocking on the door openly and asking questions openly are the behaviors that normal people should exhibit.

Perhaps not only in Douluo Continent, but in any world, using mental power to spy on others' privacy is an extremely sinful act, and if one is not careful, it will lead to a fight to the death.

However, in the technological universe, due to the existence of the internet and cameras, people here basically have no privacy. The only difference is whether your privacy has value.

.......

An hour and a half had passed, around nine o'clock in the morning.

Heaven Dou City, Heaven Dou Grand Arena, the exclusive preparation room for Team One of Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

In the room, which was about 100 square meters, there was a very luxurious sofa chair. For some reason, Yu Xiaogang was sitting in the middle, with Tang San and Yu Tianheng on either side of him.

Qin Ming, the team's coach, sat on the right, next to the honest brothers Shi Mo and Shi Mo. On the left, Ning Rongrong, Ye Lingling, and Dugu Yan sat together.

Logically speaking, there's nothing strange about these people; it's always been the same group of people.

But something was strange today; there was another person in the room, a handsome and dashing man.

"You stinky Dongqing, my gift, my gift, have you already forgotten about this? And... you haven't contacted me for over a month, are you planning to flirt with me and then run away? Taking advantage of me and then not wanting to take responsibility?"

Ning Rongrong gripped Dong Qing's arm tightly, her sapphire-like pupils revealing a questioning look.

The man in front of her had promised to give her a gift when she attended the Tiandou Auction last time, but she ended up getting nothing.

Time may make people forget many things, but it still cannot make Ning Rongrong forget the gift she deserved.

But most importantly, Dong Qing hadn't contacted Ning Rongrong for over a month, leading her to believe that Dong Qing intended to abandon her after starting something.

You have to understand, except for the last step, Ning Rongrong has already given everything, and she will never allow this scumbag in front of her to be with her.

"Rongrong, I'm sorry, I've been a bit busy lately. As for your gift, after your competition, I'll take you somewhere and personally give you this unique gift," Dongqing said apologetically.

He has indeed been quite busy lately, not in terms of official business, but mainly because Bibi Dong, Qian Renxue, and Hu Liena are all in the same city now, so it's impossible for him not to be busy even if he wanted to.

"Hmph, man, if you dare to lie to me again, I'll never talk to you again." With that, Ning Rongrong revealed her little tiger teeth and bit down hard on Dong Qing's neck.

Seeing this, Ye Lingling silently stretched out her foot and kicked Dong Qing's shin. The latter immediately understood and her eyes indicated that she would definitely receive a gift.

Sitting next to Ye Lingling, Dugu Yan maintained her aloof demeanor, her face displaying an expression that said, "I hate you."

Regardless of what kind of person she is in private, and even her mental transformation towards Dong Qing, on the surface, she clearly dislikes this scumbag Dong Qing.

A dozen minutes later.

Dong Qing barely managed to shake off the persistent and annoying Ning Rongrong, moved a chair from a corner of the room, and then went straight to sit down in front of Tang San.

Without wasting words, he went straight to the point and asked, "Little San, after the finals are over, where are you planning to go? Have you decided whether to join one of the three upper sects, one of the two great empires, or even the Spirit Hall? With your talent, you can't be a lone wolf, can you?"

After the finals of each Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament, it's time for these young Soul Masters to go their separate ways and pursue their futures.

Some people directly join the top three sects.

Of course, due to the bloodline inheritance of the three upper sects, the soul masters who join the three upper sects are basically married off to the direct bloodline disciples of the sects. Their offspring will then have the opportunity to successfully inherit the martial soul of the three upper sects. This is also the reason why the three upper sects have been passed down for thousands of years.

Most importantly, their martial souls, passed down uninterrupted for thousands of years, are powerful enough. Even if they are martial souls of non-family members, they are still very likely to inherit the martial souls of the three major sects after marrying a direct bloodline disciple of the sect, rather than the martial souls of non-family members.

Some people joined the two great empires.

Because of the constraints imposed by the Spirit Hall, the number one spirit master organization, no one has yet forced spirit masters born in the Heaven Dou Empire to join the Heaven Dou Empire.

However, the royal family of the Heaven Dou Empire has always been quite generous. Almost every young soul master who joins the Heaven Dou Empire will eventually receive a noble title.

Some people choose to be lone wolves.

Most of these Soul Masters do not want to join other people's forces, nor do they want their freedom to be restricted. They want to create their own sects and families.

The sects and Soul Master families of all sizes on the Douluo Continent today were all created by these lone wolves. Basically, every city has several Soul Master families and a few sects of varying sizes.

As for advanced soul master academies, in a sense, they are like universities on Earth.

The Heaven Dou Royal Academy, the Star Luo Royal Academy, and the Spirit Hall Elite Soul Master Academy are equivalent to the most prestigious national defense technology universities in a certain country in China on Earth.

Blazing Fire Academy, Skywater Academy, Divine Wind Academy... these are equivalent to top-tier universities.

Blue Tyrant Academy, Elephant Armor Academy, Beast Academy... these are equivalent to second-rate universities.

As for Shrek Academy, it's probably just a diploma mill.

Participating in the Continental Elite Tournament of Advanced Soul Master Academies is akin to taking a university exam.

After the finals, which is graduation, everyone can go their separate ways.

.....

"I haven't decided yet..." Tang San said hesitantly.

He wanted to create his own sect, the Tang Sect in his heart, but unfortunately, he didn't have enough strength and didn't yet have the resources to create a sect of his own.

“I think… you could join the Spirit Hall. What do you think? If you join, I can arrange for you to start as a Yellow-Robed Deacon,” Dong Qing asked calmly.

If you are entrusted with a task, you should be loyal to it.

Since Blue Silver Emperor Ah Yin had already provided the reward in advance, paying a special job-change fee that was unimaginable to ordinary people, Dong Qing had no choice but to do what he promised her.

Just this morning, while Liu Erlong was still fast asleep, the Blue Silver Emperor Ah Yin quietly appeared from his chest, asking him to ask for Tang San's help in inviting him to join the Spirit Hall.

Unfortunately, she never considered that even if she was entirely thinking of Tang San's best interests, it didn't mean he would accept her kindness. A man's pride can sometimes crush him.

No matter how selfish Tang San is, he is still proud and boasts of possessing twin martial souls.

From the very beginning, it was impossible for him to accept himself becoming Dong Qing's subordinate and lackey.

.....

Sure enough, upon hearing Dong Qing's invitation, Tang San remained silent for more than ten seconds before asking in return, "Did your mother ask you to inquire?"

Chapter 414, Ning Rongrong [SSR-level Support Soul Master]

“Yes, indeed, your mother has that intention, but as a fellow townsman, I also hope you will join the Spirit Hall.” Dong Qing nodded, directly admitting it.

Bro, I was just kidding. I definitely don't want you to join the Spirit Hall...
