Douluo Continent: Ning Rongrong? Even a dog wouldn't chase her.

In Soto, at the same familiar tea stall, Flanders was already sitting there waiting for them.

Beside her sat a familiar figure, none other than Ning Rongrong, who had just been comforted.

After everyone had gathered around, he stood up and said:

"Tonight's lesson is simple: practical training. There is a Soul Arena in Soto City. My graduation goal for you is to reach level 40 and obtain the Silver Soul Badge."

"Tonight, I require each of you to participate in a Soul Battle, whether it's 1v1 or 2v2, just participate in one."

"Mu Bai, you lead the way."

After saying this, Flander gave Dai Mubai some instructions and then sat back down at the tea stall, while Ning Rongrong rejoined the group at this time.

They followed behind Dai Mubai and soon arrived in front of an extremely magnificent building.

It occupies a large area, and even before people enter, they can hear cheers and shouts coming from inside.

"This is the Soto Arena. They will match you with opponents based on your soul power level. You will receive a bounty and one point for each victory."

"The higher the level of the Battle Spirit Badge, the higher the bounty you will receive. Follow me, I'll take you to register."

Dai Mubai led the way while explaining the rules to everyone.

Soon, the group arrived at a reception desk in a battle arena, where they successfully registered their Iron Battle Soul Badges.

"Brother, since the dean said 2v2 is also possible, let's team up and play 2v2. With our combined strength, we can definitely defeat our opponents easily!"

Xiao Wu tugged at Tang San's arm and said in a coquettish tone.

"Okay, let's go then." Tang San nodded and replied indulgently.

"Little Ao! Come with me, let's go and slaughter them!"

Beside him, Ma Hongjun also pulled Oscar away. The two were familiar with each other, so their cooperation was naturally more seamless.

"Zhuqing...should we...?"

Seeing that only four people remained in the room, Dai Mubai turned to look at Zhu Zhuqing, tentatively wanting to ask her something.

But before he could finish speaking, he saw Zhu Zhuqing also pull Gu Yi away.

She's too lazy to even refuse him now; instead, she's showing her attitude through her actions.

'Gu Yi! You forced me to do this!'

Dai Mubai was furious. He clenched his fists and his eyes flashed with a dangerous light.

"Hehehe! It really is beautiful." Ning Rongrong sneered from the side.

That scene was so funny that she couldn't stop laughing.

"Try laughing again! Do you believe I'll make sure you can never laugh again!" Dai Mubai turned his head stiffly and threatened in a deep voice.

Every laugh from Ning Rongrong felt like a sharp sword, relentlessly piercing his heart.

At this moment, Dai Mubai's anger had reached its peak and was about to explode at any moment!

"I'm so scared~ If you dare to touch me, how long do you think you can live?" Ning Rongrong said sarcastically.

She was truly disdainful of Dai Mubai's threats!

"you!"

Dai Mubai pointed at Ning Rongrong, his eyes trembling with rage, but he made no other move.

He felt it wasn't worth it; if it were just because of this...

It's not worth it to let such a small thing affect you.

"Hmph! This is your last chance. If you dare to mess with me again, I won't care who you are!"

After threatening him again, Dai Mubai stormed off.

Ning Rongrong was left standing alone at the front desk, somewhat at a loss.

As a support-type Soul Master, she cannot participate in the Soul Battle alone; she can only wait until everyone else has finished before searching for her companions.

Soon, everyone had registered and were waiting in the rest area.

Dai Mubai, however, had a verbal altercation with Ning Rongrong at the entrance, which delayed him a bit, and he was only just now registering.

"Evil-eyed White Tiger Dai Mubai, sign up for 1V1 Soul Battle."

With that, Dai Mubai handed his bronze battle spirit badge to the receptionist in charge of the arrangements.

"Oh, it's Young Master Dai. Okay, I'll arrange it for you right away." The front desk manager accepted the badge with a fawning expression and began the registration process.

Because Dai Mubai had a fairly good reputation in the area, he was willing to give Dai Mubai face and call him Young Master Dai.

But just as he was registering his information at the front desk, Dai Mubai suddenly approached him and handed him a gold card worth 10,000 gold soul coins.

"Young Master Dai, what's this?" The receptionist asked, holding a gold card in her hand, with some confusion.

"Take it, then do me a favor." As he spoke, Dai Mubai moved closer and whispered in the receptionist's ear.

"Okay! Okay! Don't worry, I'll arrange everything perfectly for you!" The receptionist put the gold card in her pocket and assured her with a smile.

"Well, that's up to you."

Dai Mubai nodded, a sinister smile appearing on his face. He secretly turned to look at Gu Yi and the other person, his heart filled with anticipation.

"Group 3-5, please proceed to Arena Number Three for the competition!"

"Please have the Bamboo Dragon and Elegant Cat duo proceed to Arena Number Five for the competition!"

Just then, two broadcasts suddenly rang out in the Soul Arena. Gu Yi and the other three stood up at the same time and walked into the Soul Arena together.

At this moment, Dai Mubai sat down in the rest area, staring intently at the screen on Arena No. 5, a wicked smile playing on his lips.

……

"Welcome everyone to the Soul Arena! I am the referee for this 2V2 Soul Battle. The first pair to enter the arena is a new team. They just completed their registration today. Let's look forward to their performance!"

"Their opponents are the Twin Apes, who have a record of 23 wins and 0 losses. Not only do these two brothers possess the strength of a Soul Master, but their teamwork is also seamless!"

"I feel a little sorry for this new team. They encountered such a high level of opponent in their first match."

Following the referee's explanation, Gu Yi and Zhu Zhuqing's opponents stepped onto the ring.

They were twin brothers, both with strong, muscular builds. Compared to them, Gu Yi, who was 1.8 meters tall, seemed rather short.

"Our opponents this time are just two little kids? What does this Soul Arena mean?" Yuan Yi looked at Gu Yi and the other two with disdain and mocked.

“Big brother! This is no small thing, it’s huge!” Yuan Er immediately retorted, staring intently at Zhu Zhuqing, his sly eyes fixed on her.

Gu Yi's face was gloomy. He took a step forward and stood in front of Zhu Zhuqing.

Looking at the figure in front of her, Zhu Zhuqing felt a warmth in her heart. Gu Yi really cared about her feelings.

"Hehehe! Big brother, look, he's getting anxious! He's getting anxious!" Yuan Er laughed loudly, looking at Gu Yi with a mocking expression.

"Alright, let's end this battle as soon as possible. My sister is waiting for us at home." Yuan Yi didn't seem to care and had already assumed a fighting stance.

"Alright! Let's show them what we brothers are capable of!" Yuan Er chimed in.

"Hmph!" Gu Yi snorted coldly, and said, "Although I don't know how I ended up running into you, since you are so short-sighted, I'll show you our power today!"

"Alright! I hereby declare this battle of spirits open!"

Chapter 16 The First Signs of a Domain

"Hehehe~ It's finally starting!"

"Gu Yi, I hope you will like the gift I prepared for you."

Inside the rest area, Dai Mubai spoke with a fierce expression.

According to the implicit rules of the Soul Arena, a team like Gu Yi's, whose strongest member is only a Soul Master, should never be matched with a Soul Sect member.

However, Dai Mubai secretly took advantage of this rule. As for when asked about it later, he would say it was a momentary mistake, and it would have nothing to do with him anyway.

"I want to see just how embarrassing you are this time, and see if Zhuqing will still cling to you after this!"

"Zhu Qing... can only be mine! I can do without her, but you're not allowed to touch her!"

Dai Mubai sat in his seat and muttered to himself. Although he was constantly fantasizing, his eyes never left the screen.

On the screen, Gu Yi and Zhu Zhuqing stood facing each other, and behind them, they each summoned their own martial spirits.

Behind Ape One was a monkey covered in flames, while behind Ape Two was a white-haired baboon.

Their soul power and soul rings were extremely similar, both being level 42 configurations with one white, two yellow, and one purple ring.

"Fire Monkey and Wind Baboon? I'd like to see just how strong you are." Gu Yi saw through the opponent's martial soul at a glance.

In his memory, both of these martial souls belonged to the offensive type. Although they were not very strong, they were not weak either.

"Zhu Qing, their soul power is very high. You stay behind me and wait for the right opportunity. I am a defensive soul master. Take your time and absolutely do not take any risks!" Gu Yi reminded him with concern.

Hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing felt a warmth in her heart. She nodded obediently and stood behind Gu Yi.

"Hmph! This is a battlefield. Go home and be all lovey-dovey!"

Seeing the two of them showing affection on the arena, Yuan Yi was furious. He roared and then gathered his soul power in his hand.

"First Soul Skill! Throw Fireball!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Yuan Er, who was standing to the side, was ready. He suddenly flicked his hands, and two invisible wind blades blasted over.

"First Soul Skill! Dragon Body!"

"Third Soul Skill! Spatial Transfer!"

Seeing the attack about to land on him, Gu Yi hurriedly used his first soul skill, greatly increasing his defense.

And just as the fireball was about to hit him, Gu Yi instantly unleashed his third soul skill.

In an instant, the crimson fireball disappeared from Gu Yi's sight and appeared behind Yuan Er at the same time.

"boom!"

With a loud bang, Yuan Er's body was instantly blown away. He fell to the ground, his eyes filled with rage.

"What's going on?!" Ape Two got up from the ground with a puzzled look on its face and asked Ape One beside it.

"It must be that kid's soul skill! But it doesn't matter, he should only be able to transfer visible soul skills, otherwise he wouldn't have used a soul skill to take your wind blade head-on just now." Yuan Yi explained with a gloomy expression.
