Douluo Continent: Martial Soul Spinning Top, Explosive Warrior

Wang Teng nodded and said.

"No problem. Are you two looking for a long-term or short-term rental? What are your requirements for the house?"

“We have everything here, from exquisite detached houses to ordinary residences.”

Zhang Guang speaks fluently, clearly someone who's been in this line of work for a long time.

"We'll rent it for a year first. The house doesn't need to be too nice, just a regular place that's livable and clean. However, it would be best if it had a yard, suitable for our usual exercise."

Wang Teng stated his conditions.

"Understood. Shall we come with you two to take a look? We happen to have one or two suitable houses."

Zhang Guang enthusiastically stepped aside to lead the way.

After accepting the referral job, Zhang Guang led his two brothers straight to the south of the city.

As he walked, he explained, "The south side of the city is mostly inhabited by ordinary people, though there are also some Soul Masters who aren't so well-off. It has a strong sense of daily life, and the prices are reasonable."

"The apartment I found for you two is in a convenient location, right next to the main street, making it easy to buy anything."

After turning into an alley and walking for a while, Zhang Guang stopped in front of a black wooden door.

"This is it."

As he spoke, he took out his key and unlocked the door.

Wang Teng looked around carefully. The small courtyard was right next to a street that wasn't too noisy. Just as Zhang Guang had said, there were some grocery stores and grain stores on both sides, making life quite convenient.

"Please come in, both of you."

Zhang Guang pushed open the door and strode in.

The yard wasn't big, but it was kept fairly tidy.

The three main rooms face south and are quite bright. There is also a small kitchen and an outhouse next to the east wall.

There is a stone-lined well in the center of the yard, and there is an open space next to it where you can perhaps grow something.

The furniture inside was simple and slightly dusty, but overall there was no major damage.

Wang Teng looked around and, having a general idea of ​​what was going on, a satisfied expression appeared on his face. He asked, "How much would it cost to rent this courtyard?"

Zhang Guang rubbed his hands together and said with a smile, "To be honest, this courtyard is in a good location, but the price... is a little bit expensive."

"One gold soul coin every three months."

"In addition, the homeowner has a small request..."

"What request?"

Wang Sheng asked.

"I just want to collect a year's rent all at once, which is... four gold soul coins."

Zhang Guang held up four fingers, speaking somewhat cautiously.

"Isn't this against the rules?"

Wang Sheng frowned and questioned, "Who pays for a whole year at once? What if we don't even make it to the next room?"

"Big brother."

Wang Teng raised his hand to stop Wang Sheng from speaking, looked at Zhang Guang, and said, "We'll rent this courtyard."

After saying that, Wang Teng simply took out four gleaming gold coins from the money pouch in his pocket and handed them over.

"readily!"

Zhang Guang's eyes lit up, and he quickly took it, then swiftly took out two copies of the lease agreement from his pocket.

"Please take a look. If there are no problems, please put your fingerprints on the key, and it will be yours."

The contract terms were simple and clear. Wang Teng read them carefully and then pressed his fingerprint on them.

Zhang Guang left behind the key and a contract, pocketed the gold soul coins, and took his leave with a big smile.

The courtyard fell silent, leaving only the two brothers.

Wang Sheng picked up a broom and started sweeping, but couldn't help muttering, "Little brother, isn't this money being spent too quickly?"

"We only brought 40 gold soul coins with us when we came out, and now one-tenth of them are gone."

"There's still a long road ahead..."

"Brother, don't worry."

Wang Teng also drew a bucket of water from the well in the yard.

Then, he found a rag and began wiping the tables and chairs. His tone was calm but firm as he said, "Before coming to Soto City, I had already planned out our future path."

"Don't worry about the money."

"Oh?"

Wang Sheng stopped what he was doing, turned around curiously, and asked, "So confident? Then tell me, how are we going to make money?"

Wang Teng raised his head, looked at Wang Sheng, and clearly uttered two words.

"Fighting Spirit".

Wang Sheng was taken aback by his younger brother's words for a moment before he understood.

"You mean... go to the Grand Arena in Soto City and earn money by fighting in matches?"

He frowned slightly and confirmed.

"Yes."

Wang Teng clenched his fist, his eyes filled with determination.

"I've inquired about it. Even at the Iron Soul level, winning a match at the Soto Grand Arena will earn you at least ten gold soul coins."

"If we win a few more games, we'll have plenty of money right away."

Wang Sheng pondered, "So what you meant by 'finding an opportunity' is this..."

"Our first spirit ring was a hundred-year spirit ring, which is not a low starting point among spirit masters."

“If we only participate in the lowest level of Soul Battle, even if our soul power is a bit low, I think our chances of winning should not be small.”

Wang Teng continued his analysis, his tone encouraging.

"Fighting Spirit can earn you money and hone your skills in real combat, killing two birds with one stone."

Wang Sheng thought about it and felt that his younger brother made sense.

They do need money, and they also need real battles to solidify their skills and improve their adaptability.

So Wang Sheng nodded and said, "Okay, whatever you say. When shall we go?"

"Let's clean this place up first, then go buy some daily necessities nearby."

"By the time everything is settled, it will probably be afternoon."

"Let's rest for a while and head to the Great Arena before evening."

"I heard that the Grand Arena was the most lively place at that time, and it also had the most matches scheduled."

Wang Teng quickly made plans.

"to make!"

Without further ado, the two brothers rolled up their sleeves and started fetching water, sweeping the floor, wiping windows and tables, working tirelessly for the entire afternoon.

By the time the sun began to set, the courtyard had been completely transformed.

This newly rented courtyard, though simple, is clean and bright.

Now, thanks to their hard work, the place finally looks a bit like a home.

Afterwards, the two quickly washed up and changed into comfortable clothes that allowed them to move around easily.

The clothes were custom-made; the fabric was sturdy and the cut was neat.

After they finished tidying up, they locked the courtyard gate and headed towards the city center.

The setting sun painted the sky a warm orange-red.

At this moment, Soto City did not fall silent as darkness fell; instead, another kind of liveliness was gradually rising.

The closer you get to the city center, the brighter the lights become, and the louder the noise grows.

In that bustling central area, a huge oval building stands majestically, its imposing presence felt even from a distance.

"My God... how can this building be so tall!"

As he approached, Wang Sheng couldn't help but crane his neck and exclaim in amazement.

The building in front of me resembles a giant beast lying in the city; the height of its outer walls alone makes one feel insignificant.

"The Soto Arena is said to be over 120 meters high."

Wang Teng was equally shocked as he looked at the colossal object, but he remained calm as he explained to his brother, "This place is divided into one main arena and twenty-four sub-arenas, and can accommodate up to 60,000 people watching at the same time."

"This place is not only a place for Soul Masters to spar and compete, but also a stage for various forces to interact and even display their strength."

While Wang Teng spoke, he couldn't help but think to himself: One hundred and twenty meters, in his previous life, would be equivalent to a thirty or forty-story building.

On this continent, it is truly astonishing that such a magnificent structure could be built solely with human and soul power.

"Good evening, esteemed Soul Masters."

A soft female voice suddenly came from the side.

Wang Teng turned his head and saw a woman wearing a well-tailored, tight-fitting uniform walking gracefully under the lights at the entrance of the Great Soul Arena.

The woman wore a professional, friendly smile and walked with a light step.

The woman walked up to the two brothers, bowed slightly, and looked them over before asking gently, "You two look unfamiliar. Is this your first time visiting our Soto Grand Arena?"

"I wonder if you two have come here tonight to watch the match, or... to try your skills yourselves out?"

"Is this a waiter at the Great Soul Arena?"
