Douluo Continent: Evil Flames Burn the Heavens, a Blessed Start with Many Children

Yan Shaozhe gasped in surprise at what he was saying.

This was his boldest guess.

But it was his guess that was closest to the truth.

This time the distance is too far. When he gets back, he will definitely grab Lu Heqiu's body and examine it inch by inch to see what happened to this kid that he was able to grow an extra bone!

"you mean..."

"So, is it a new bone brought about by the awakening of his martial soul, which will one day be nurtured into the most suitable soul bone for him? Or does this kid have a 100,000-year-old soul bone that can hide itself?"

Elder Xuan stopped eating and instead stared intently in Lu Heqiu's direction.

Today, he only raised his doubts because he saw Lu Heqiu's aura getting stronger and stronger, but he didn't expect that something new would appear. Last time, he only checked his soul power and only glanced at his martial soul.

Who knew this kid was hiding so many things?

"Good lad!"

"After we get back, we'll capture this kid and take him to the Sea God Pavilion for further research. If it's just a naturally occurring soul bone, then we'll let it go. But if it really is a 100,000-year-old soul bone..."

"I believe we can decide on the next leader of the Sea God Pavilion ahead of schedule!"

......

Lu Heqiu was unaware of these conversations, and even if he had, he would have been powerless to do anything about it. The enhancement of his Phoenix bloodline had indeed made his cultivation speed faster and his control over flames more terrifying.

These things couldn't be kept secret, but Lu Heqiu had no idea they'd been discovered so early.

In Lu Heqiu's expectations, even with the accompaniment of the elders of the Sea God Pavilion, it would take at least until they entered the Star Dou Great Forest to make their move before any clues could be found. However, he underestimated how much Elder Xuan valued him.

I'm watching him all the time.

With Huo Yuhao absent and the next generation of Shrek Seven Devils yet to display their extraordinary talent, the focus naturally shifts to Ma Xiaotao and her generation, as the Soul Master Competition still depends on them. Thus, the focus of attention has somewhat shifted.

The abnormalities that appeared on Lu Heqiu's body were naturally magnified countless times. Fortunately, Lu Heqiu had kept a low profile during this period. Even if Yan Shaozhe and the others had doubts, they could only attribute them to the second mutation of his martial soul after he had intercourse with Ma Xiaotao.

"Is it dawn?"

Jiang Nannan slept sitting up all night, and Lu Heqiu stared at the snow-white cuffs of her sleeves all night long. She only woke up somewhat dazed when dew appeared on the tips of her hair.

This was the best night's sleep she'd ever had.

The best night's sleep I've had since arriving at Shrek.

"Yes, you should go change your clothes; we'll be leaving soon."

Lu Heqiu stood up and stretched. Despite not having slept all night, he felt no abnormality. At most, his mental energy was not as abundant, which did not affect his combat power.

He wouldn't encounter any spirit beasts on the road ahead, so he didn't need to worry too much.

Jiang Nannan glanced down at her pajamas, nodded slightly, and walked towards the tent. She really needed to change her clothes; they were a little damp from the dew.

Furthermore, she would never participate in the next mission while wearing pajamas.

Not long after she went in, Ma Xiaotao also came out. She glanced lightly in Lu Heqiu's direction, said nothing, and just called out to the boys' tent.

"We'll depart in half an hour!"

"Hurry up, everyone!"

The anger on her face had subsided considerably, but she still didn't give the group of junior students a friendly look, as if she had been provoked by Bei Bei. Lu Heqiu just smiled and didn't say anything. She was just like her, having a temper. Did she really think that the title of Flame Witch was just for show?

There are no wrong nicknames, only wrong names.

After a quick meal, the team set off again.

Just as Lu Heqiu had predicted, it took the entire team three days to reach the outer area of ​​the Star Dou Great Forest. During these three days, Jiang Nannan stayed by Lu Heqiu's side the whole time, and even when she went to sleep at night, she tried her best to sit next to Lu Heqiu.

Lu Heqiu had been on duty for three whole days, and he looked quite exhausted. His mental strength was only about 30% left. Ma Xiaotao looked at him and just said, "Serves him right!"

However, he still let Lu Heqiu sleep with him for one night the day before entering Xingdou Dasenli, a typical case of being stubborn on the outside but soft on the inside.

"Tell me about your martial spirits. Do any of you six know what kind of spirit beast you need?"

Ma Xiaotao's gaze swept over the students who needed to acquire spirit rings, and she spoke calmly. After listening to everyone, she turned to Lu Heqiu and asked, "Should we split up?"

"Otherwise, the efficiency might be a bit low."

Lu Heqiu shook his head. He wished he could stay in the Star Dou Great Forest a little longer to create opportunities for himself, Jiang Nannan, and Tang Ya. How could he possibly agree to separate?

Besides, Ma Xiaotao isn't without another chance.

Only a fool would break up with someone.

"no."

"If we separate, it will be too dangerous to encounter soul beasts that are tens of thousands of years old. You can protect yourself, but these junior students will only face death."

Hearing Lu Heqiu's rebuttal, Ma Xiaotao didn't argue back. Instead, she snorted and led the way into the depths. She wanted to help hunt for the soul ring as quickly as possible!

The six soul masters who needed to equip themselves with soul rings mostly needed soul rings that were four or five thousand years old. They wanted to get as close to their limits as possible, but dared not exceed them.

Ma Xiaotao's fighting style is swift and fierce. When she encounters a suitable soul beast, she will cripple it before handing it over to her junior to hunt for soul rings. Her simple and brutal approach is not like that of a teacher leading a team to hunt for soul rings, but more like a one-woman show by Ma Xiaotao.

In just two days, Ma Xiaotao completed the configuration of the soul rings for the three students.

Lu Heqiu felt a chill run down his spine.

Xiao Tao, why are you doing this so quickly!

Men can't be too fast, but does that mean women can be too fast?

Do you realize you're affecting my plans?!

"Don't eliminate the spirit beasts all at once. Our responsibility is only to protect them; finding and hunting them is their own job!"

"Otherwise, when these guys leave the academy and try to hunt for spirit rings on their own, they'll still be doomed."

When Lu Heqiu spoke, the students behind him nodded in agreement, though they dared not show it too obviously because of Ma Xiaotao's lingering influence. However, they secretly agreed with Lu Heqiu's idea.

Ma Xiaotao is too fierce!

This approach doesn't provide any real training or experience; isn't it just a waste of time and effort?

"snort!"

"Understood! Let them handle it themselves from now on!"

Ma Xiaotao crossed her arms, making her chest appear round and full. Although she looked somewhat arrogant, she still agreed with Lu Heqiu's decision, since what Lu Heqiu said made a lot of sense.

Lu Heqiu gestured to Jiang Nannan and the other students whose soul power was slightly weaker, indicating that they should also start looking for soul beasts to train and experience complex battles, but Tang Ya did not start looking immediately.

Instead, she walked lightly to Lu Heqiu's side.

"Teacher Lu."

"I think so too..."

"I've reached level 30!"
