Douluo Continent: The Ice Dragon King Martial Soul, Ma Xiaotao is Addicted

Chapter 200 Pool Competition: Rewards and Punishments
Jiang Nannan gently dipped one foot into the cool pool water, and a chilling sensation rushed to her brain, causing her to instinctively pull it back.

"Sister Nan, are you afraid of water?"

Ye Chen joked.

"I didn't..."

Jiang Nannan muttered something under her breath, then mustered her courage and leaped lightly.

"Gudong~"

A small splash of water erupted, and Jiang Nannan fell directly into the water.

Although the pool wasn't very deep, Jiang Nannan still unconsciously waved her hands.

at this time.

Jiang Nannan felt a pair of warm, large hands instantly wrap around her waist.

His strong chest was pressed against her cheek.

A familiar sensation washed over her, and Jiang Nannan instinctively reached out.
"Wow--"

Ye Chen gently scooped Jiang Nannan out of the water and wiped the water off her face.

"Sister Nan, don't be afraid, I'm here."

Ye Chen quickly reassured him.

However, the hand supporting Jiang Nannan's lower back and round, plump buttocks was...

Through the thin, soaked swimsuit, I could clearly feel the incredibly elastic curves of the swimsuit in my palm.

"Phew... I'm not scared at all..."

Jiang Nannan trembled slightly, but she remained stubborn, not wanting to lose face in front of Tang Ya.

Although she had learned to swim, land-based soul masters rarely touch water. At this moment, she suddenly went into the water, and the water temperature was so cold that she didn't react in time.

However, feeling the warmth emanating from Ye Chen, she gradually began to relax.

Although Ye Chen possesses an ice martial soul, his body temperature is only slightly lower than that of a normal person when he is not releasing his martial soul; it is still very warm compared to water temperature.

"Okay, I can do it myself..."

Jiang Nannan noticed Ye Chen's restless movements, her face flushed slightly, and she quickly broke free from Ye Chen's clutches.

If it were just the two of them, she would let Ye Chen do as he pleased.

But Tang Ya is still watching from the side.

And who knows, her mother might even pass by at that time.

That would be so embarrassing...

"Haha, that's good~"

Ye Chen laughed and released Jiang Nannan.

Jiang Nannan made a few simple strokes and quickly adapted to the water temperature, then began to swim nimbly in the water.

The cool pool water enveloped her body, and Jiang Nannan gently exhaled, her tension easing slightly.

Tang Ya leaned closer, her wet hair clinging to her cheeks, her eyes sparkling: "It feels so good, doesn't it? Soaking in water is the best thing when it's hot!"

"Ah."

Jiang Nannan nodded, her hand unconsciously splashing water; the cool sensation did indeed dispel the afternoon heat.

She imitated Tang Ya, trying to float gently, her slender legs swaying slowly in the water.

The light yellow school swimsuit looked even more form-fitting under the shimmering water, outlining the girl's budding, slender figure.

In particular, the large expanse of smooth, bare skin on her back is faintly visible in the water, exuding a pure yet shy allure.

Ye Chen was not far away, watching them with a smile, without swimming closer, as if he were admiring two beautiful fish in the water.

Water droplets rolled off his clothes, and his well-proportioned figure looked very energetic in the sunlight.

"How about it, Sister Nan, I wasn't lying to you, it's quite comfortable in the water," Ye Chen said with a smile.

"It's alright..." Jiang Nannan said softly, still a little reserved.

She stole a glance at Tang Ya's "shocking" blue two-piece swimsuit.

Her ample bosom created a deep cleavage and large expanses of snow-white skin.

Her full buttocks were almost completely exposed beneath a small piece of fabric held up by only two thin ropes.

Then look at yourself, even though you're fully covered up, the skin peeking out from the heart-shaped cutout on your lower abdomen...

It doesn't seem so conservative anymore...

Her face flushed again.

"Just soaking in the water is no fun, let's play some games!" Tang Ya, who couldn't sit still, suggested, slapping the surface of the water.

Water splashed up and landed on Jiang Nannan's face, causing her to gasp softly.

"playing what?"

Jiang Nannan wiped her face and asked curiously.

“Of course it’s swimming! We’ll swim 1000 times without using soul power and see who finishes first!” Tang Ya said with a smile. “Besides, swimming is also a way to improve physical fitness. It’s much more comfortable than running at the academy, at least you won’t be drenched in sweat.”

"Sister Xiaoya's suggestion is great. I'll be the referee. There will be a reward for winning and a punishment for losing!" Ye Chen swam over and was the first to agree.

Although the pool wasn't large, it was still 20 meters long, and going back and forth 1000 times wasn't too difficult for Tang Ya and Jiang Nannan, both Soul Masters.

"What reward?"

Jiang Nannan and Tang Ya both turned their gazes toward Ye Chen.

As for punishment, it is naturally completely ignored.

After all, given Ye Chen's personality, punishment would simply be... something he could just endure and it would pass...

Given Ye Chen's methods, the reward he mentioned must be extraordinary.

"Yes, this reward will allow you to break through level 5-6 instantly, and at the same time improve your aptitude, so that your cultivation talent is no less than that of a Soul Master with innate full Soul Power."

Ye Chen said calmly.

Tang Ya and Jiang Nannan's eyes lit up instantly!

Level 5 or 6!
No Soul Master could resist such temptation!

It's important to understand that reaching the Soul Master level is extremely difficult, and the significance of this reward is truly astonishing.

A longing flashed in Jiang Nannan's eyes, and even her shyness was temporarily suppressed.

Tang Ya excitedly slapped the water, splashing water everywhere: "You keep your word! I'm going to win!"

"Of course~" Ye Chen nodded with a smile, then added, "But if you lose... hehe, there will be a small punishment."

He gave the two of them a meaningful look, a look that made Jiang Nannan's blush return, while Tang Ya boldly raised her chin: "Tch, I won't lose! Nannan, you just wait and see what punishment you get!"

Jiang Nannan's competitive spirit was ignited. She bit her full lower lip and said with a coquettish snort, "I won't lose to you!"

Tang Ya didn't know what benefits she received from Ye Chen, but both her cultivation and combat strength were very strong. In addition, Tang Ya was a control-type, which was just right to counter her.

Although she couldn't beat Tang Ya, she didn't think she would lose to Tang Ya without using her martial soul and soul power!

"Alright! Whoever finishes 1000 laps first wins!" Ye Chen chose a section of the pool as the start and end point. "No soul power allowed, only physical strength, and you can't deviate from the designated path!"

Ye Chen used his soul power to draw two equally long "swimming lanes" for the two of them to prevent them from colliding while swimming.

"Let's get started when you're ready."

"Puff-"

As the words fell.

Tang Ya leaped forward like a nimble, light blue mermaid.

With powerful strokes, the swimmer breaks through the water's surface, displaying excellent explosive power and coordination in his standard freestyle swimming style.

Her legs kicked rapidly underwater, her body forming smooth lines and creating a splashing sound, like an arrow shot out from a bow.
