Douluo: Dream Overlord

"You, you are!"

Looking at the boy who called out his code name, Lingjian sized him up, finding him increasingly familiar, and exclaimed in surprise, "Are you the Dream God!?"

"It's me, let's go outside first." Shi Guang sighed and looked at the passersby gathered around to watch the commotion. Helplessly, he pulled Ling Jian and walked outside.

Ling Jian looked astonished, and instinctively disengaged the wind sword in his hand and the soul ring on his body.

Squeezing out of the crowd, the onlookers, seeing that the parties involved had all left, realized they had gotten bored and dispersed.

The two found an open-air cafe. Shi Guang looked at the girl sitting opposite them with a complicated expression and said to the waiter, "Two coffees, and milk candy separately."

When Lingjian was seen in her true form by her teammates for the first time, she lowered her head shyly, rubbing her hands together, and occasionally glanced up at Shiguang.

This was also the first time she had ever seen the true face of the Dream God!

She looked at her teammate with curiosity, someone who was always steady and reliable in battle.

The boy before me had black hair and black eyes, and a handsome face. His magical eyes were calm and undisturbed.

The boy was wearing a white trench coat, with a white shirt and trousers underneath, and white boots. He looked as pure and mysterious as snow.

This guy is actually quite handsome! And he has great taste in clothing!

Lingjian secretly observed Shiguang and lowered his head when he noticed Shiguang looking at him with a half-smile.

"Thank you." As the waiter brought the coffee and candy to the table, Shiguang placed a copper coin on the wooden tray in his hand and said.

As he thanked him, he pushed his coffee forward, leaned back in his chair, and looked at Lingjian: "Alright, why are you here? Can you tell me?"

"Didn't I say before that I could only return to the family after I reached the Gold Battle Soul Badge?"

Lingjian stirred his coffee with a small spoon and said softly, "After participating in the God-Making Project, I have enough money from the competition prizes, so I'm still staying at the hotel in Soto City."

I'm here because I was invited by my friend to attend the social dance party of the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy.

Since I arrived in Soto in a hurry, I only brought a few changes of clothes, so I came here to buy a dress for the ball.

I was planning to find a place to stay until night, but I was bumped into on the street. It turned out to be my doubles teammate...

As she spoke, she looked at Time with a resentful expression.

What an unexpected coincidence! In this vast world, they actually met in the same place and even had a traffic accident.

That said, this guy is clearly a control-type Soul Master, so why is his body so strong?

It's important to know that the body is a major weakness for Soul Masters who rely on control abilities.

Aside from their proud control abilities, the weakest point of ordinary control-type Soul Masters lies in their bodies, which have not been enhanced by their Martial Souls.

Their weak physiques prevent them from directly confronting powerful offensive types and harassing agile offensive types, which is why they have always been criticized by Soul Masters.

For control-type Soul Masters who want to improve their physical attributes, the common method is to hone their bodies over many years until their bodies can rival the strength of ordinary Beast Soul Beasts.

"Oh? Your friend invited you to the dance?" Shi Guang asked in surprise, "Boyfriend or girlfriend?"

"Of course, she's my girlfriend!" Lingjian blurted out instinctively, then suddenly realized, "Wait! What girlfriend! She's clearly my female friend!"

"Oh, so someone from a lower-fourth-class family like yours would participate in those noble balls?"

Shi Guang raised an eyebrow and asked. In his impression, the family members of the so-called upper three sects and lower four sects should all be just as arrogant and domineering as this group of nobles.

It's like the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family; every member is incredibly arrogant, looking down on everyone as if everyone owes them millions.

It's similar to the Uchiha clan in Naruto, except it's not as extreme as the Uchiha.

However, they deserved to be wiped out by Bibi Dong.

"Hey! Do you think the lower four sects don't need to befriend high-ranking officials and nobles?" Lingjian said with dissatisfaction. "Perhaps the upper three sects, like the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan and the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda Sect, can wait for others to come to them to curry favor."

However, the four lower sects do not have any titled Douluo-level experts to oversee them, and we do not have the strength to make others come to us to curry favor.

Besides, I'm just an ordinary direct bloodline member of the family, okay?

There are plenty of members with higher positions than me. If I don't actively build connections, who will advocate for me?

"Yes, you make a good point."

After listening, Shi Guang pondered for a moment and said, "I admire your initiative in doing everything yourself without asking anyone for help."

"Alright, the suit I ordered isn't finished yet. Let's wander around the city for a bit, and I'll take you back to the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy tonight."

"Alright," Ling Jian nodded, then suddenly realized something and looked at Shi Guang in surprise: "Wait! You're a student at the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy?"

"Why is this child so silly?" Shi Guang, who labeled the girl as silly, nodded helplessly and said, "That's right, I am a member of the first team of the Tian Dou Royal Team."

Since this is our first meeting with our true selves, let's get to know each other again.

Hello, my name is Time.

Time stood up, reached out its hand, and smiled at the dazed girl.

Lingjian looked at Shiguang's hand, which was as smooth and warm as white jade, and subconsciously placed his hand on it.

Feeling her hand being held tightly in his, Lingjian's pretty face flushed red, and she said in a voice barely above a whisper, "I... my name is Feng Ling!"

"Wind Spirit? What a beautiful name, a sprite dancing in the wind?"

Time seemed to play tricks on us, and unconsciously, it carelessly rubbed the girl's delicate hands.

His palm was a full size larger than the spirit sword, easily enveloping the other's hand.

"You, you mustn't do this!"

Feng Jian lowered her head shyly, trying to pull her hand away, but Shi Guang's hand gripped hers firmly like a vise.

Shi Guang looked at the shy girl with great interest, a playful expression on his face.

"Hey! You lecher! What are you doing?!"

Suddenly, a delicate shout came from afar.

"Huh? Are you talking to me?"

Time turned back in a huff, and what came into view was a spirited young woman standing on the street.

The girl had long, fiery hair and wore a red and white jumpsuit.

She had a pretty face, but her eyes were filled with dissatisfaction and contempt, and a strand of red hair hung down in front of her forehead and fluttered in the wind.

"I'm talking about you!"

The red-haired girl, hands on her hips, said angrily, "How could you do such a despicable thing in broad daylight! Let go of that girl! Come at me if you dare!"

"What do you mean by 'in broad daylight'? What do you mean by 'under the clear sky'? What do you mean by 'a shameful act'?"

Glancing at the bewildered Ling Jian, Shi Guang unhappily retrieved Bai Meng from his storage soul tool. He raised his long staff, pointing it at the red-haired girl, his eyes flashing with murderous intent.

"You've ruined someone's reputation for no reason. If you don't apologize to your brother, he'll be angry."
