The Star Train's Journey Through the Heavens

Chapter 30 Zhu Zhuqing's Request
The other three had no objections and planned to set off for Sunset Forest the next day.

The four left the Great Soul Arena and headed towards their hotel.

Halfway there, Meng Huaifeng quietly released the soul skill of his first soul ring, telepathy, and activated the team voice chat.

Under Dan Heng's tutelage, Meng Huaifeng has successfully mastered the ability to use soul skills without displaying his soul rings.

Imaginary energy is far superior to soul power and has a stronger control over martial souls, which is why Meng Huaifeng was able to do this.

“Someone is following us.” March 7’s voice echoed in the minds of the others.

"Could it be that some lecherous scoundrel has taken a fancy to our Little March and Ah Xing's good looks again?" Meng Huaifeng teased.

"It's not impossible for me to be beautiful and charming," March 7th said proudly.

"Couldn't it be that he was attracted to your and Danheng's good looks?" Xing retorted.

"She's been following us ever since we came out of the Great Soul Arena. Her steps are light, and it sounds like she's a woman," Dan Heng said.

"Huh? Ah Xing, you actually guessed right!" March 7th exclaimed.

“Of course, from now on call me the Great Prophet Star.” Star said smugly.

"Don't guess wildly, it's definitely not because of that," Dan Heng said speechlessly.

"Maybe they're your die-hard fans who were attracted to you in the Soul Arena," March 7 speculated confidently.

"Why don't we just ask her? Hopefully she doesn't have any bad intentions. Otherwise, she's really messed with us by daring to follow us," Meng Huaifeng said.

The four stopped in an empty alley. Meng Huaifeng turned around and said, "Come out, we've found you."

The alleyway was silent for a moment, then a light, rhythmic footstep slowly sounded, growing closer and closer, and a dark figure appeared at the alley entrance.

With their keen eyesight, the darkness could not obstruct their vision.

The newcomer was dressed in a black, tight-fitting leather outfit that accentuated her voluptuous figure. Her waist was slender yet shapely, making one worry that it might break at any moment. Only her slightly immature, cold face suggested that she was not very old.

"Where have I seen this person before? Where was it again?" March 7th frowned, deep in thought.

"Among those who escaped from Shrek Academy later." Whether it was because Xing's memory was better than March 7's, or because she paid special attention to pretty girls, she remembered immediately.

"Are you Zhu Zhuqing from Shrek Academy?" Meng Huaifeng recognized the person at a glance.

Zhu Zhuqing looked at the four people with a complicated expression and said, "Yes, it's me. I didn't expect you to know my name, senior."

"What are you doing following us?" Meng Huaifeng asked curiously.

Zhu Zhuqing's lips trembled several times, and a blush appeared on her cool face. Finally, she made up her mind and gritted her teeth to ask, "May I ask you seniors if you can tell me your age?"

"Huh? Why are you asking this?" March 7th never expected Zhu Zhuqing to ask such a question, and was momentarily stunned.

"I've lost my memories, and I don't even know how old I am. But a beautiful girl is forever eighteen." March 7 scratched his head first, then straightened his back and said.

"I'm not even a year old!" the Star Core Spirit said proudly.

Meng Huaifeng grabbed Xing's head and pushed her behind her back.

“Don’t listen to her nonsense. She recently lost her memory and doesn’t know her own age. As for me, I’m eighteen.” Meng Huaifeng said while dealing with Xing, who kept scratching him.

Everyone looked at Dan Heng, who remained silent and did not answer.

He was unaware of the passage of time in the prison, and he didn't know how long he had been imprisoned there. It was probably one or two hundred years. After being exiled, he worked as a slave in the company for several decades. He should be over two hundred or three hundred years old.

The lifespan of the Dragon Lord is much longer than that of ordinary members of the Vidyadhara clan, reaching two or three hundred years, which is equivalent to a teenager. Seeing that Dan Heng did not intend to answer, Zhu Zhuqing was somewhat disappointed, but knowing the age of one of them was enough.

After returning to the academy that day, the Shrek students gathered together to analyze the four of them.

Although Meng Huaifeng was the weakest, putting aside his combat experience, Tang San confidently stated that in terms of speed and strength alone, he was no less than Zhao Wuji, who used a martial soul.

Who is Zhao Wuji?

Soul Saint!

If he is no less than a Soul Saint, does that mean Meng Huaifeng has at least the strength of a Soul Saint?
Eighteen years old, a Soul Saint.

On its own, it may not seem like much, but when compared to the elite competition of advanced soul master academies across the continent, one can see how terrifying an eighteen-year-old soul saint is.

The age limit for participating is under 25 years old, and in previous competitions, teams with one or two Soul Kings were basically considered favorites to win the championship.

In other words, aside from the main characters being overpowered, being a Soul King at twenty years old is basically the ceiling of Douluo Continent.

"Pfft!"

Zhu Zhuqing suddenly knelt down in front of the four people.

"Hey? What are you doing? Get up!" All four were startled, and March 7 hurriedly went over and pulled Zhu Zhuqing up.

Zhu Zhuqing seemed determined to continue kneeling, but the strength of March 7th was beyond her ability to resist, and she was forcibly pulled up.

"Tell me, what do you need our help with? As long as it doesn't violate morality or infringe on the rights of innocent people, the Nameless Guest is never stingy in lending a helping hand," Dan Heng solemnly promised.

Zhu Zhuqing's face lit up with joy. She had originally thought the chances were very slim and only wanted to try her best. She never expected to get their promise so easily.

"I want to become stronger and take control of my own destiny. Please teach me, seniors," Zhu Zhuqing nervously made her request.

Dan Heng frowned: "We cultivate different things, so I'm afraid I can't help you become stronger."

Zhu Zhuqing's face turned deathly pale in an instant.

"Can you tell me why you want to become stronger?" Meng Huaifeng wanted to give her a chance.

To be honest, when he read the novel before, Zhu Zhuqing was the character he admired the most. Unfortunately, she was gradually marginalized and became just a accessory to Dai Mubai's martial soul fusion skill.

Among the Shrek Seven Devils, Tang San is hypocritical, a double standard, and always looking for ways to die. Xiao Wu is love-struck, a troublemaker, and seems to have forgotten the deep-seated hatred that her mother was killed by Bibi Dong.

Dai Mubai, a womanizer, bullies the weak and fears the strong, and runs away alone to live a life of debauchery. Ma Hongjun, lewd and wicked, became a regular at brothels at the age of twelve.

Ning Rongrong and Oscar are probably not too bad, but they're not particularly likable either, perhaps because they're support Soul Masters.

Zhu Zhuqing, regardless of her appearance and figure, is the youngest of the seven and has the lowest innate soul power, but her soul power level exceeded Ning Rongrong's and was the same as Ma Hongjun's when she entered school.

He knew that he would die if he didn't become stronger. He was self-disciplined, knew how to work hard, and had a firm will. He was not crushed by the enormous pressure and even escaped from the Star Luo Empire to Shrek Academy all by himself.

Regardless of what role Zhu Zhuqing's sister actually played, whether it was a genuine pursuit or a disguised escort, the question remains.

Zhu Zhuqing's performance was excellent, and she herself had no flaws.

Unfortunately, due to the needs of the plot, the character gradually became one-dimensional and became a supporting character.

　The Honkai Impact 3rd commemorative booklet arrived, it's pretty good.

　　Also, thank you everyone for your monthly votes, I will continue to work hard.
