Douluo Dragon King: My Martial Soul is Kamen Rider!

Inside the Spirit Ascension Platform's private room, Zhou Yang and Na'er's figures, lying in the metal cabinets, were gradually enveloped in light, their consciousness slowly sinking into the virtual world of the Spirit Ascension Platform. Ya Li stood to the side, gently watching the two metal cabinets until she confirmed that the two had successfully entered the Spirit Ascension Platform. Only then did she slowly turn around, her gentle expression fading, replaced by a knowing smile, and leave the private room.

There was also an old acquaintance waiting for her.

With her status as the Holy Spirit Douluo and her long-standing relationship with Leng Yaozhu, Ya Li walked unimpeded to Leng Yaozhu's private office area.

As soon as she pushed open the door to a secluded room, she couldn't help but smile.

Inside the room was Leng Yaozhu, who had just finished work and was instructing her subordinates to debug the data port of her equipment.

That cautious and meticulous demeanor seemed rather furtive to Ya Li, clearly indicating that he was preparing to follow them to the Ascension Platform.

Their eyes met, and the room fell into an instant silence, the atmosphere so awkward it could fill a three-bedroom apartment.

Ya Li couldn't hide the smile in her eyes. She knew Leng Yaozhu too well. Ever since she called her last time to ask her to prepare tickets for the Ascension Platform, Leng Yaozhu's gossipy nature had been impossible to conceal. She would definitely sneak over to peek, wanting to see what kind of person she valued so much looked like.

Leng Yaozhu, caught red-handed by Ya Li, had her little scheme completely exposed. Her cheeks flushed slightly, her body stiffened, and she stood there, her eyes darting away. Even the roots of her ears turned red, and she felt extremely embarrassed.

They were on their own turf, yet they acted like thieves.

I originally planned to surprise Yali after I went in and catch her out on some gossip, but I didn't expect to be caught red-handed by the person in question.

Leng Yaozhu coughed lightly and quickly waved to her subordinates behind her, signaling them to leave. The subordinates tactfully bowed and withdrew, gently closing the door behind them, leaving the two of them alone.

"Sister Yali, what brings you here?" Leng Yaozhu spoke first, her tone somewhat unnatural as she tried to hide her embarrassment, her eyes still avoiding direct eye contact with Yali.

Ya Li walked slowly to her side, found a chair and sat down, a gentle smile on her face. After a brief greeting, the room fell into a short silence. This silence didn't last long before Ya Li broke it with a smile. She looked up at Leng Yaozhu, her tone slightly teasing: "What, nothing to say to me?"

These words struck Leng Yaozhu like a precise blow, instantly hitting her sore spot. Her face flushed even redder, filled with shame and indignation. She couldn't help but retort, "You clearly knew I was coming all along, but you deliberately didn't tell me, just to see me make a fool of myself, right? That's so unfair of you, being so wary of me!"

Her tone was full of coquettishness, completely lacking the usual majesty of someone who presided over the Spirit Pagoda, leaving only the awkwardness of girls teasing each other.

After saying that, Leng Yaozhu felt even more embarrassed and couldn't stay any longer. She hurriedly said, "I have work to do, I'm leaving now," and turned around and quickly left the room.

No one knew that although she seemed to leave in a disheveled state, she had already made a plan in her mind.

I'll make a surprise comeback later; I absolutely have to see her, otherwise I'll lose face in front of my best friend for nothing.

Who exactly is this person that Yali is so wary of, just to satisfy her curiosity?

Watching Leng Yaozhu's hurried departure, Ya Li couldn't help but laugh out loud. Of course, she knew what Leng Yaozhu was thinking. She had only wanted to tease her and didn't really mean to stop her.

After all, she'll find out about him someday.

Once Leng Yaozhu's figure had completely disappeared from sight, Ya Li put away her smile and took out a uniquely shaped green cassette from her storage soul tool. The cassette was engraved with complex patterns and emitted a faint soul power fluctuation.

If Zhou Yang were here, he would definitely exclaim in surprise upon seeing what Ya Li was holding.

Holy crap, G! (Gashat)

She gently pressed the button on the cassette, and the next second, a soft green light instantly enveloped her body. Her figure gradually became transparent, eventually transforming into a stream of data that silently flowed into the Ascension Platform's connection port and entered the Ascension Platform.

As Ya Li had predicted, Leng Yaozhu had only taken a few steps when she quietly circled back. Using her authority as the head of a branch tower of the Spirit Transmission Tower, she opened the back door of the Spirit Ascension Platform and secretly entered it. She then used the backstage GM to track Ya Li's movements, fearing that she might be discovered.

As soon as Yali entered the Ascension Platform and landed on a secluded hillside, she witnessed Zhou Yang's transformation—a white Time Driver, a white Zi-O watch face, a clock projection rotating counterclockwise, an exploding watch strap, and the final form of silver-black armor, with his purple-pink compound eyes standing out.

Seeing this scene, Yali's guesses turned into confirmation. The thousands of words that had been accumulating in her heart finally turned into a gentle smile, her eyes full of certainty and expectation.

Just then, Yali's eyes flickered, her brows furrowed slightly, and her gaze gently shifted to one side, her smile widening.

(Please remember the website 20 ...

Seeing that she had been discovered and could no longer hide, Leng Yaozhu could only awkwardly smile and walk out. She circulated her soul power, gently flew to Ya Li's side, scratched her head, and said somewhat embarrassedly, "You found out..."

Feeling Ya Li's gentle gaze, Leng Yaozhu's heart gradually calmed down. She could tell that Ya Li was not angry and had obviously acquiesced to her coming along to observe Zhou Yang together.

To her slight regret, she arrived too late and missed seeing Zhou Yang's complete transformation. She only saw the tall knight figure after the transformation was complete.

Even just seeing this armor, Leng Yaozhu was instantly moved. Her body stiffened slightly, and her words became excited: "This... this style of armor, this texture that is similar to battle armor but completely different..." Before she could finish speaking, the figure hidden deep in her memory was instantly evoked.

Once upon a time, there was another person with armor of a similar style, with a dazzling light like the sun, deeply imprinted in her heart, never fading.

"What similar flowers they are! If he knew, he would definitely be very interested."

Leng Yaozhu couldn't help but sigh inwardly. No wonder Ya Li valued this child so much. If it were her, she would probably pay even more attention to him, since this armor had touched her memories too deeply.

She listened intently to the knight's voice, which still sounded somewhat childish, clearly indicating he was still a child, which only deepened her surprise.

Just then, the two looked down again and saw Woz emerge from the bushes, loudly celebrating Zhou Yang.

Leng Yaozhu looked at the familiar voice and exclaimed in horror, "Woz, what's that guy doing here? Is he having another episode?"

Despite her initial sarcasm, Leng Yaozhu instantly realized something, her eyes narrowing as she instinctively said, "Wait, the 'Demon King' he mentioned, could it be this child? Is this the Zi-O he's been waiting for?"

Yali, standing to the side, didn't respond. She simply gazed silently at Zhou Yang below, muttering to herself the words Woz had spoken: "Zi-O... the king of time and space?"

As soon as she finished speaking, a sudden flash of inspiration struck her. All her previous doubts and speculations were instantly answered, and the last trace of doubt in her heart completely disappeared. A look of understanding and certainty flashed in her eyes.

Leng Yaozhu was filled with curiosity and subconsciously wanted to fly down to get a closer look at Zhou Yang and the armor that moved her so deeply. But as soon as she moved, Ya Li reached out and pulled her back.

"Don't go over there." Yali's voice was gentle but firm. "We'll just watch from here and protect them from the shadows. Don't interfere unless absolutely necessary. Let them deal with it themselves."

Leng Yaozhu paused for a moment, then looked at Ya Li with some confusion: "Aren't you worried about them? No matter how strong these two kids are, they're only second-ring Soul Masters. The Spirit Ascension Platform is fraught with danger..."

Seeing Ya Li's determined gaze, Leng Yaozhu understood that this was a test arranged by Ya Li, so she did not interfere further.

The two hid in the shadows, their eyes fixed on Zhou Yang and Na'er in the distance, and happened to witness the entire process of Zhou Yang's battle with the Ice and Fire Demon Tiger.

When they saw Zhou Yang rush forward without hesitation, knocking back the Ice-Fire Demon Tiger with a single punch, followed by his clean and decisive attacks, Leng Yaozhu and Ya Li simultaneously let out a low gasp of amazement.

Leng Yaozhu's eyes were filled with shock, and she subconsciously clenched her fists. Her tone was filled with disbelief: "This child's fighting style is too skillful and experienced! He doesn't seem like a two-ring Soul Master at all. Instead, he seems like a warrior who has experienced hundreds of battles. His composure and explosive power are truly amazing!" She looked at Zhou Yang's movements and felt a sense of familiarity. However, compared to the strong people she had seen before, none of them matched her.

Yali remained calm, but a hint of relief appeared in her eyes. She nodded gently: "He has never been an ordinary person."

Leng Yaozhu turned to look at Ya Li, her eyes filled with determination, and said earnestly, "Ya Li, I've made up my mind. Once this child comes out of the Spirit Ascension Platform, I want to meet him and try to take him as my disciple, to bring him under my command. I will do my best to nurture him and make him the strongest among the top experts."

As she spoke, she added, "Don't worry, I will help you cover up Zhou Yang's special characteristics and will never reveal any information about him. Consider this my price for helping you, how about it?" Although she would have helped cover it up even if this hadn't happened, after all, she was Ya Li's friend, and she could still do these small things.

Upon hearing this, Ya Li gently shook her head, a gentle yet slightly teasing smile appearing on her face as she looked at Leng Yaozhu: "I have no right to make decisions for Zhou Yang. His future ultimately depends on his own vision and choices."

Her gaze fell on Zhou Yang below again. The way he looked like he was watching a good show made Leng Yaozhu feel inexplicably uneasy, yet she couldn't figure out what Ya Li was thinking.
