Battle Through the Heavens II: Three Phases of Peerless Power, One Soul and Four Bodies

Although Luo Ranyu's soul power was full at this moment, it could temporarily exceed the soul power limit.

Sensing the amplifying effect of the flower, Luo Ranyu ate several more petals to more clearly perceive its function.

Hua Xi'er tilted her head and asked sweetly, "How do you feel?"

Luo Ranyu nodded and smiled, "Yes, the fragrance is wonderful and refreshing! This flower should be able to restore soul power and also increase mental power by a small amount."

Hua Xi'er proudly raised her little face, "Yes, and it's not a soul skill!"

Just as the two were chatting happily, "Ding ding ding~~"

"Oh dear, class is starting!" Hua Xi'er put away her martial spirit. "Luo Ranyu, let's chat again next time! By the way, are you free tonight? Let's have dinner together, and I'll introduce you to Jin Zhongyue and Luo Jiuxiao."

Luo Ranyu thought for a moment and realized she was referring to the two boys who had been scrutinizing her. Getting to know more people wouldn't hurt; she might even be able to glean some useful information from them.

He readily nodded: "Okay, that's fine too."

Soon, in the evening, Hua Xi'er took Luo Ranyu to the high-end restaurant in the academy. Luo Jiuxiao and Jin Zhongyue sat on one side, and Hua Xi'er sat on the other side. She patted the sofa chair, indicating that Luo Ranyu should sit next to her.

Luo Ranyu looked at the two of them, smiled and quietly sat down. Judging from their appearances, they were both very handsome. Luo Jiuxiao's figure was similar to Luo Ranyu's, but he was more dashing in his movements.

Jin Zhongyue was tall and looked rather meticulous. Before Hua Xier could even begin her introduction, Luo Ranyu greeted them first, "Hello, I'm Luo Ranyu from Class 3, Grade 1. Nice to meet you."

Kim Jong-kwon said calmly, "Class One, Kim Jong-kwon."

"Hello! My name is Luo Jiuxiao, from Class 4." Luo Jiuxiao replied casually, picking up a piece of golden, crispy fried chicken and taking a bite. He made muffled chewing sounds as he spoke, "Mmm~ Chew~ This fried chicken is amazing, you should try it!"

Luo Shenyu waved her hand in refusal, and Luo Jiuxiao asked, "Luo Ranyu, I heard you're also a transfer student? Wow!"

Luo Ranyu smiled and said, "Yes, my background is rather special. I was found in the Star Dou Great Forest by the older brothers and sisters of the Inner Academy. Since I have no memory of my background, I have no choice but to listen to them and stay in the academy first, and then slowly look for my family."

The other three listened attentively to him. Even though Hua Xi'er had never specifically asked about his background before, she was very curious at this moment. Now they knew that Luo Ranyu had lost his memory, which explained why he didn't recognize Luo Jiuxiao, who had arrived in Douluo Continent ten thousand years ago.

Yes, Luo Jiuxiao had been here ten thousand years ago. Since the War of the Gods, his sect had endured humiliation and hardship, and most of its members had fallen into a deep sleep. This sleep did not change their age or bone age, nor did it affect their cultivation level; it was as if they had traveled through time.

At this moment, Jin Zhongyue asked in confusion, "So, you encountered something in the Star Dou Great Forest and lost your memories about your family and background. Fortunately, you only forgot that part."

Luo Ranyu also sighed, "Yes~ that's what I think too. I think I was hunting for my second spirit ring at the time, because when I woke up, I had my first spirit ring and my level was exactly 20."

Upon hearing this, Luo Jiuxiao suddenly realized, "Oh, I see~ Then that must be it!"

Jin Zhongyue also said in a serious tone, "Well, since you appeared on the north side of the Star Dou Great Forest, it's more likely that you come from the Heavenly Soul Empire and the Dou Ling Empire. Don't worry, the continent is only so big, and we'll find out about your background sooner or later."

Luo Ranyu didn't continue the conversation, but instead teased Luo Jiuxiao,

"Forget about that, by the way, I heard that Jiuxiao is really making waves lately!"

Upon hearing this, Luo Jiuxiao scratched his head, looking embarrassed.

"Well, actually I didn't want to either, it's just that my hands have been itching lately, haha!"

He laughed awkwardly as he spoke. Ran Yu also found it a bit strange. He thought that Luo Jiuxiao was like those spoiled brats who liked to bully others, so when Ran Yu mentioned this matter, he should have been confident and arrogant.

In fact, he is just a bit warlike. Whether in his original world, the Douluo Continent ten thousand years ago, or now, he has always been like this. It may be driven by his nature, or it may be because he does not want to hold his brothers back. So he has been working hard to cultivate his body and magic, and often seeks out people to fight to improve his combat ability.

These days, he's been challenging students from the first to third year of high school. He hears someone is particularly skilled, so he goes to challenge them. Most of the time, he initiates the challenge in a friendly manner, but sometimes he'll feign arrogance to provoke them.

However, if the other party still appears nonchalant, he will never make a fuss and will have no choice but to leave disappointed.

As she spoke, Hua Xi'er grinned mischievously at Luo Jiuxiao:

"Oh, has anyone said that Luo Ranyu from our class is really good, and recommended that you give her a challenge?"

"Uh, someone did mention it recently, but I haven't had a chance yet, hehe. But I remember there's a friendly match between Class 3 and Class 4 next Wednesday, so I'll have a chance then, right?"

Upon hearing this, Ran Yu realized that Luo Jiuxiao was different from what she had imagined. She thought to herself, "I came here today to make friends, and making friends through martial arts isn't necessarily a bad thing." So she smiled and said:

"If you, Jiuxiao, would like to spar with me, I would be happy to oblige, even outside of class."

Upon hearing this, Luo Jiuxiao chuckled and said, "Brother Luo Ranyu, you're quite straightforward. I, Luo Jiuxiao, am determined to be your friend! Come, drink!"

Luo Jiuxiao picked up his teacup and took a big gulp, letting out a satisfying "ah" sound. He looked very bold and didn't act like a child at all.

Having met Luo Jiuxiao, Luo Ranyu initially wanted to learn more about the tall man beside him, who looked imposing and righteous. However, the other man spoke first.

"Ran Yu, Xi'er is in the same class as you. We'll have to ask you to look after her for us from now on. If you have any problems in the future, you can discuss them with us."

Upon hearing this, Ran Yu unconsciously glanced at Hua Xi'er beside her. The cute little girl with pink hair and a sweet smile came into view. Luo Ran Yu didn't think anyone would bully such a kind and lovely girl.

He took a shallow breath, smiled at Kim Jong-ak, and said...

"Don't worry, Jin. Protecting classmates from bullying is my duty. At least in our class, no one would dare to do such a thing."

The atmosphere at the table grew increasingly harmonious as the four of them ate and chatted.
