Douluo Continent: Twin Blue Silver Grasses, Life and Death in Transmission!

Chapter 32 Call her Sister Yanzi!

The following morning, inside the Ye residence.

Ye Xuanming was practicing his marksmanship in the courtyard, the black jade and blue silver spear dancing in his hands.

Inside the kitchen, Ye Xingyue was preparing breakfast, with Ye Lengleng and Dugu Yan helping her.

"Yanzi, your knife skills are terrible—" Ye Xingyue looked at the strangely shaped radish shreds that Dugu Yan had cut and felt somewhat helpless.

"Aunt Ye, I've tried my best!" Dugu Yan protested, pouting. "Why are these radishes so hard to cut?"

Ye Lingling chuckled to herself, "Yanzi, are you mistaking chopping vegetables for chopping soul beasts?"

"Cold-blooded! You're laughing at me!" Dugu Yan blushed. "I was just imitating!"

Ye Xingyue gently took the knife from Dugu Yan's hand: "Here, I'll teach you. To cut radish into shreds, you should first slice it, then shred it. That way you can cut it evenly."

Her movements were gentle and skillful, and the radish was quickly transformed into radish shreds as thin as hair in her hands.

"Wow! Aunt Ye is amazing!" Dugu Yan's eyes lit up. "I want to learn how to do that too!"

"Take your time, you'll get better with practice."

Ye Xingyue chuckled and patted Dugu Yan's head. "Leng Ling was like this when she was little, but isn't she amazing now?"

Ye Lengleng's face flushed slightly: "Mother, please don't talk about my childhood."

The three of them busied themselves in the kitchen and soon prepared a sumptuous breakfast.

In the courtyard, Ye Xuanming had just finished practicing his spear technique and put away his martial spirit before heading towards the dining room.

"Xuanming, come and eat!" Dugu Yan called out, waving her hand.

The four of them sat around the table, enjoying a cozy breakfast.

Ye Xingyue's xiaolongbao (soup dumplings) had thin skins and generous fillings, and although the shredded radish that Dugu Yan cut herself had an odd shape, it tasted quite good.

"Yanzi's cooking skills have improved." Ye Xuanming picked up a piece of shredded radish with his chopsticks. "The seasoning is excellent."

Dugu Yan puffed out her chest proudly: "Of course, I'm very talented!"

Ye Lingling chuckled softly from the side, "It's because Mother taught her well."

Halfway through the meal, Dugu Yan suddenly put down her chopsticks, frowned, and looked somewhat unhappy.

Ye Xuanming noticed the change in her expression and asked with concern, "What's wrong?"

Dugu Yan bit her lip, then suddenly stood up, put her hands on her hips, and looked very serious.

"Xuanming, you're several years younger than Leng Ling and me, so from now on you'll call me Sister Yanzi, understand?"

Ye Xuanming was taken aback, not expecting Dugu Yan to suddenly bring this up.

Ye Lingleng also put down her chopsticks and nodded in agreement: "It's not good to be called by name by a child all the time."

The two girls approached Ye Xuanming from the left and right, looking rather like they were there to interrogate him, but the expectation in their eyes was impossible to hide.

Looking at the expectant expressions on their faces, Ye Xuanming sighed inwardly. He decided to let them pay him back eventually.

"Sister Yanzi, Sister Lingling," Ye Xuanming said helplessly.

"Haha! That's right!" Dugu Yan's face instantly lit up with a smile. "That's how you'll call me from now on!"

Ye Lengleng nodded in satisfaction, a faint smile on her face.

Watching the three children interact, Ye Xingyue felt a warmth in her heart. The friendships of young people are always so pure and beautiful.

After breakfast, the three prepared to head to the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy.

On the way, Ye Xuanming suddenly remembered something important and said, "Sister Yanzi, Sister Leng Leng, the news of our improved soul power can't be kept secret, but teammates are just teammates, understand?"

Dugu Yan nodded: "I understand, I won't reveal anything about the immortal herb."

Ye Lingling also expressed her understanding: "We will be careful."

The three of them soon arrived at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

Inside the academy, the morning theory classes were as dull as ever.

The teacher was explaining the knowledge about soul beasts on the stage, while some students below were listening attentively, while others were secretly dozing off.

Dugu Yan lay on the table, muttering to herself, "These theoretical classes are so boring, I'd rather go to practice."

Ye Lengling gently patted her shoulder: "Yanzi, don't talk, the teacher is watching us."

Ye Xuanming was taking notes diligently beside him. Although this knowledge was not unfamiliar to him, it was always good to review what he had learned to gain new insights.

After finally making it through the morning's theory classes, the afternoon's practical classes began.

However, the members of the Royal Fighting Team have a special practical training session, which is conducted individually under the guidance of team leader Qin Ming.

Inside the training field, Qin Ming stood at the front of the team, his face serious.

"Today we will have intra-team scrimmage practice."

Qin Ming said, "After this period of rest, I have noticed that the soul power of all of you has improved considerably."

Yu Tianheng asked curiously, "Teacher, how did you figure that out?"

"A Soul Master's aura is very difficult to conceal," Qin Ming explained. "Especially after a breakthrough in Soul Power, the energy fluctuations on their body will change significantly."

He walked up to Dugu Yan and carefully sensed her power: "Yan Yan, your soul power has increased by at least three levels?"

Dugu Yan was somewhat surprised: "Teacher, you are really amazing. You could tell just by feeling it."

Qin Ming then walked over to Ye Lingling: "Leng Ling's soul power has also increased significantly, and she has also obtained her third soul ring."

Ye nodded coldly in acknowledgment.

Finally, Qin Ming stood before Ye Xuanming, a look of surprise on his face.

"Xuanming, you've changed the most. Not only has your soul power increased, but even the quality of your martial soul has changed."

The other team members all cast curious glances at them.

Shi Mo couldn't help but ask, "Xuanming, what exactly happened to you? You seem to have become even stronger?"

Stone Mill chimed in, "Yes, the aura around you is completely different from before."

Ye Xuanming humbly replied, "I was just lucky and had some good fortune."

Yu Tianheng walked over and patted Ye Xuanming on the shoulder: "No matter what, it's always a good thing for teammates to get stronger."

Oslo, however, was somewhat unconvinced: "Tch, so what if my soul power increased by a few levels? What's so great about that?"

Yu Feng muttered quietly to himself, "Someone's just jealous."

"What did you say?" Oslo glared at Yufeng.

"I didn't say anything, I didn't say anything," Yu Feng quickly waved his hand.

Qin Ming clapped his hands to quiet everyone down: "Alright, let's begin training. Today's sparring groups are—"

He paused, a sly glint in his eyes: "Yu Tianheng, Shi Mo, Shi Mo, and Aos Luo form one group; Ye Xuanming, Dugu Yan, Ye Lingling, and Yu Feng form another group."

Everyone was stunned when they heard about the group assignment.

Osro was the first to protest: "Teacher, this isn't fair! There are four of us on our side, and four of them on their side, but the difference in strength is too great!"

Yu Feng was also a little worried: "Yes, teacher, the captain is a level 32 Soul Master."

Yu Tianheng suddenly spoke up: "It's level thirty-three now!"

Qin Ming smiled without saying a word; he had his reasons for grouping them like this.

But Qin Ming added, "Yanzi, you can't use your third soul skill. This poison is too overpowered."

Ye Xuanming roughly guessed Qin Ming's idea: he wanted to test the strength of the three of them after their improvement.

"Teacher, we accept this challenge," Ye Xuanming said.

Dugu Yan was also eager to try: "That's right, who's afraid of who!"

Although Ye Lengleng was a little nervous, she still nodded in agreement.

Yu Tianheng looked at the four people opposite him and said seriously, "Since this is training, we won't hold back."

"That suits me perfectly." Excitement gleamed in Dugu Yan's eyes.

Both sides stood at opposite ends of the training field, with Qin Ming serving as the referee.

"Ready?" Qin Ming raised his hand. "Start!"

As soon as they finished speaking, both sides released their martial spirits simultaneously.

Yu Tianheng's Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex was incredibly powerful, with lightning crackling around him.

The Graphite and Stone Mill brothers' basalt tortoise is indestructible, while Oslo's leopard is as fast as the wind.

Meanwhile, Ye Xuanming's Twin Blue Silver Grass emitted a mysterious light, Dugu Yan's Jade Phosphorous Serpent had golden scales, Ye Lengleng's Nine Heart Begonia was gentle yet powerful, and Yu Feng's Wind Chime Bird was light and agile.

"Interesting." A figure standing on the sidelines watching the training ground muttered to himself.

With blond hair and blue eyes, and a beautiful appearance, she was none other than Qian Renxue, disguised as Xue Qinghe.

She had just arrived at the academy when she heard that the Royal Fighting Team was having an internal competition, so she came over to watch with great interest.

"Is that Ye Xuanming?" Qian Renxue carefully observed the boy in the arena. "He is indeed somewhat special."
