Douluo Continent: All I Do Is Destroy Rings is Skill.

Combat is also a form of training.

Ning Wuque planned to challenge himself, especially under heavy loads. Fortunately, Shrek Academy had a well-equipped large arena that provided him with convenient combat facilities.

So he decided to use combat to relax from the monotony of training and fully enjoy the passion of fighting others after sweating profusely!

Shrek Academy's Great Battle Arena is huge and open almost 24/7. Here you can spar with others, wager, or even settle some personal grudges.

Although school had not officially started yet, when Ning Wuque entered the Great Soul Arena, he still saw that it was packed with people, and once inside, it felt like every seat was taken.

He also saw many people who weren't wearing school uniforms, including both adults and children.

Shrek Academy's Grand Arena is located on the outermost perimeter of the academy. If tourists and residents of Shrek City wish to witness the prowess of the academy's geniuses in their battles, they can purchase tickets to enter and watch.

At the same time, gambling and other stimulating activities are not allowed here. It is a large arena for fighting spirit that has no special profit-making function.

The only permitted bets are those placed by the trainees themselves during the betting competition.

Yes, at least that's how it appears on the surface.

"Hello, I'd like to participate in a Soul Battle. Can I find a match here?"

"Of course, junior. I don't know what kind of spirit battle you plan to engage in. If it's a regular spirit battle, you may have to wait a while. If it's a gambling spirit battle, we'll give you priority if someone is willing to gamble with you."

The receptionist is a part-time female student.

Without hesitation, Ning Wuque took out the gold card Ning Tian had given him from his storage soul tool and said:

"Let's have a duel, on the condition that soul tools are allowed, and beast spirit masters below level 33 are preferred to fight head-on."

I can offer a wager of 10,000 gold soul coins. If the other party accepts a head-on confrontation, they can challenge me for free; otherwise, they must offer an equal wager. Thank you.

Are you sure you want to do this?

Hearing Ning Wuque's conditions, the senior at the front desk showed a hint of admonition, after all, he was a freshman no matter how you looked at it!

At the same time, she was also slightly surprised. There were just too many new three-ring Soul Masters this year, weren't there?

"That's fine. I'll just swipe 100,000 gold soul coins and store them. I'll probably come here to fight soul battles more often in the future."

Ning Wuque didn't have much time, so he offered a rather tempting offer.

As for losing?

At worst, he can activate his Martial Soul, or even directly activate the Blood Surge Pass to show the Soul Master what the numerical power of a Soul Sect Master is!

Seeing that Ning Wuque still insisted, the senior at the front desk stopped trying to dissuade him. For her, 100,000 gold soul coins were a lot, but for a young master like Ning Wuque, they were probably just a pastime.

Ten thousand gold soul coins for one match? That's incredibly generous.

"Hey~ Junior, you seem quite confident in your abilities. If I don't use my soul skills, I wonder if I could relax the conditions for our soul duel a bit?"

Suddenly, just as Ning Wuque was waiting for the formalities to be completed, a joyful voice suddenly came from behind him, as if the voice knew that he was giving money and had come over specifically to ask for it.

Turning around, Ning Wuque saw the appearance of the person who had come.

With his black and red hair, tall and imposing figure, and snake-like eyes, he looked respectable, yet exuded a... carefree and irresponsible air.

It seems a bit unreliable.

"Who are you?"

Ning Wuque recognized the person as Xu Sanshi, the accomplice who often worked with Bei Bei to earn pocket money in the Great Soul Arena in the original story.

However, he shouldn't know him now, which is why he came out to ask.

Across from him, Xu Sanshi first smiled and introduced himself in a friendly tone:

"My name is Xu Sanshi, a fifth-year student, and a level 40 defensive-type Battle Soul Master. I wonder if you would like to challenge me, junior? I can spar with you head-on without using any soul skills, only my martial soul."

Of course, I won't cheat you. My wager is a beauty pill, which is a very rare and precious item on the market. It's incredibly effective at attracting young girls!

"Oh? Is that really true?"

Ning Wuque almost couldn't help but laugh. It's good that he doesn't need to use his soul skills; he's a good defensive punching bag!

He knew about the Beauty Elixir. It was a special pill made by the Xuanming Sect, usually a byproduct of the Xuan Shui Pill. Although it couldn't actually make people beautiful, it could make the skin supple and smooth, and had a certain skin-nourishing effect.

The price of one is about 1,000 gold soul coins, but because it is as rare as the Xuan Shui Dan, the actual price is much higher than the listed price, which is especially attractive to female soul masters!

"Junior, you're still young. You should start dating early! What do you say? You might not get another chance like this."

Xu Sanshi grinned slyly, then casually put his arm around Ning Wuque's shoulder. He'd really come at the right time.

Not only can it teach the junior students what the wickedness of the human heart is, but it can also earn 10,000 gold soul coins as pocket money for free. Tsk tsk tsk~ This soul battle is such a wonderful thing!

"Alright, then I'll take the liberty of asking you for advice, senior. It just so happens that I have someone to give this beauty pill to, so it's very timely."

"Oh? Junior, you've already found someone you like? Alright, then I'll help you to the end. Even if I lose this beauty pill, I'll still sell it to you for an extra two thousand gold soul coins. I wish you a happy ending in your love life!"

"Then thank you very much, Senior Sanshi."

Ning Wuque smiled and nodded. He found Xu Sanshi pleasing to the eye now; he truly understood the art of language.

Afterwards, the two happily engaged in spirit battles at the front desk, and after three rounds, it was their turn.

While waiting in the lounge, Ning Wuque and Xu Sanshi sat together, and the latter reached out and hooked his arm around Xu Sanshi's neck, asking:

"By the way, junior, I still don't know your name. Tell me?"

"My name is Ning Wuque, a level 22 Power Attack type Great Soul Master from the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School."

"Level 22?!"

Xu Sanshi exclaimed in surprise. He had thought that Ning Wuque must be at least level 31 or 32, right? Otherwise, how could he dare to apply for a Soul Master level battle spirit? It's going to be a head-on confrontation!

Of course, this was also because Ning Wuque did not deliberately exude his aura while he was in the academy, which prevented Xu Sanshi from feeling the oppressive aura of his Soul Venerable level as Bei Bei did.

A smile played on Ning Wuque's lips as he slowly spoke:

"Senior Sanshi, don't underestimate me because of my soul power level. Oh, and by the way, I'm also the personal bodyguard of the current young sect master of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, so you'd better be careful."

"The young sect leader's bodyguard? Junior Brother Wuque, don't tell me you have someone you like that young sect leader, right? I've heard that the current young sect leader of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School is a girl."

You answered correctly, but there's no reward.
