“Sister, it’s no use,” Zhu Zhuqing shook her head and said, “The key to this tradition is not in our Zhu family, but in the royal family.”
Zhu Zhuyun fell silent, her lips trembling slightly, a profound sense of guilt enveloping her.
What did she do? Just because of a tradition, she distanced herself from her own sister, leading her sister to decide to embark on a path of no return.
Yes, Zhu Zhuyun believed that the Third Prince Dai Mubai had chosen his second soul skill randomly. She thought that her younger sister would also choose a second soul skill randomly in the future to completely cut off the possibility of fusing with the Netherworld White Tiger.
But Zhu Zhuqing didn't choose randomly; she came prepared.
“Sister, we actually met a very powerful person on this trip. He recommended the Third Prince’s soul skill, and I also plan to obtain a soul ring according to his guidance. We don’t want to waste our talents, but rather to forge our own path, a path that is not bound by the family.”
"A very capable person?" Zhu Zhuyun was skeptical.
"Yes, you can ask Uncle Chen. You can't disbelieve what he says, can you?"
"...I'll go find out more about him later. If that person is really as powerful as you say, I'll allow you to obtain your first spirit ring as you see fit." Zhu Zhuyun hesitated for a moment, but finally relented.
"Thank you, sister." Zhu Zhuqing smiled broadly.
"I should thank you." Zhu Zhuyun stroked Zhu Zhuqing's hair. "You must have been wronged these past few days. Come on, let me take you to eat something delicious. Weiss is hosting a banquet tonight."
"Is there fish at the banquet?"
"Of course I do, and even if I don't, I can have someone make it for me."
"My sister is so kind..."

Nottingham College.
Inside the master's room, Chen Feng had just finished his daily study of soul beast knowledge.
He glanced at the master behind the desk, who was taking a sip of water, and asked:
"Master, how much do you know about the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family?"
The master paused in his drinking motion, put down the glass, and calmly asked:
Why do you ask that?
"Well, I have a theory that I'd like to verify by learning more about the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family. I wonder if you could help me with that?" Chen Feng said.
The master was silent for a moment, then asked, "What do you want to ask?"
"I want to ask," Chen Feng leaned forward slightly, "Are members of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan truly only allowed to hunt spirit rings from sub-dragon species?"
"Your question is a bit too general," the master said calmly. "Not all members of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan possess the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Martial Soul. These two things need to be considered separately."
"Those who do not possess the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Martial Soul can choose other types of Soul Rings, but Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Soul Masters need to hunt down Soul Rings from sub-dragon species Soul Beasts."
"Is it a necessity, or the only option?" Chen Feng asked intently.
The master glanced at him and said, "Are you suspecting that the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Soul Master can actually absorb other soul rings?"
“That’s right. It’s just that the Dragon Seed Soul Ring brings them the greatest benefits, which is why there’s a saying that they must absorb the Dragon Seed Soul Ring. That’s what I think,” Chen Feng said.
"That's...not impossible," the master mused.
Chen Feng continued to ask:
"Master, your surname is Yu, and your martial soul is a dragon species, so are you a member of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan?"
The master nodded slowly.
"Then I'd like to ask, how often has your family experienced martial soul mutation?"
The master raised his eyebrows. "Indeed, there are quite a few. What comes to mind?"
Chen Feng leaned back gently in his chair and said in a serious voice:
"Dragons can be large or small, can rise or hide, which shows that the dragon species itself is ever-changing. When the bloodline of the dragon race is enriched to a certain extent, it is only necessary to have a little bit of energy of other attributes, which may cause the descendants of soul masters with dragon blood to undergo martial soul mutation."
Do you think this theory holds true?
Chen Feng looked at the frowning master and spoke with slightly more emphasis:
"Or to put it more clearly, Master, did your father or mother possess at least one spirit ring with the attribute of light?"
The master's expression changed instantly.
Back in his dorm, Chen Feng leaned against his bed, picked up a pen and paper, and wrote down the title of his first paper:
The Theory of Martial Soul Evolution and the Principles of Soul Ring Acquisition
Chapter 36 Old Master Chen Fishing (Please continue reading!)
Early morning, inside the Nottingham Post Office.
A boy is handing an envelope to the staff member in front of him.
"Uncle, I want to mail a letter."
"Okay, the postage is two copper soul coins." The staff member took the envelope, glanced at it, and was immediately taken aback. "To the Star Luo Empire's Imperial Palace?"
“Yes, I have a friend there.” Chen Feng nodded.
"Oh...does your friend work over there?" the staff member made a reasonable guess.
He knew that some factions would train children from a young age to ensure sufficient loyalty.
If someone has a martial soul talent, they'll be taken in as a guard; otherwise, they'll just be a regular servant. This boy's friend is probably in that situation.
"Uh, yes, my friend does indeed 'work' in the Star Luo Empire's palace," Chen Feng said, trying to cover it up.
"Your friend is very lucky to have found a good employer. Alright, this letter will probably take three days to arrive." The staff member said as he took the envelope and put it into an iron box labeled "Star Luo Empire".
Although the Tian Dou and Xing Luo kingdoms have been competing for many years, the continent is still at peace. Under these circumstances, exchanges between countries large and small have not been interrupted, and it is normal for people to exchange letters.
"Thank you, Uncle." Chen Feng handed over two copper soul coins, then took a mailing certificate and left.
Two days later, Chen Feng submitted articles to both the Heaven Dou Weekly and the Martial Soul Weekly. Then he went to a grove of trees and found Tang San and Xiao Wu training there.
"Xiao Wu, come here for a moment, I have something to tell you." Chen Feng waved to Xiao Wu, who was being bombarded by Tang San.
Xiao Wu ripped off the blindfold, dodged a flying Blue Silver Grass seed, and shouted:
"What's up? I'm busy right now."
"It's very important!" Chen Feng shouted, while gesturing for Tang San to pause.
Tang San withdrew his martial spirit and walked over with Xiao Wu.
Xiao Wu wiped the dust off her face while angrily punching Tang San, "Couldn't you have gone a little easier? You've covered me in dust, I'm filthy!"
Tang San said helplessly, "I can't throw the seeds by hand, how can I control them so precisely? It's good enough if you only get a little dust on them."
"Hmph, isn't it because I hid well? I've already told you that my sister Xiaowu is a genius. Even if I'm blindfolded, I can easily dodge your Blue Silver Grass seeds." Xiaowu said with some pride.
"That's because I... Never mind, whatever makes you happy." Tang San didn't continue arguing with Xiao Wu.
He couldn't throw the seeds by hand, so he couldn't use even a tenth of his skills. Even so, Xiao Wu was still caught off guard and flustered. Where did she get the confidence to call herself a genius?
Approaching Chen Feng, Xiao Wu cleaned the dust from her braids and asked:
"Xiao Feng, what's the urgent matter that you need to call me?"
"Xiao Wu, I've been thinking about this carefully these past two days, and I think you should go home for a visit," Chen Feng said bluntly.
"Go home? Why go home?" Xiao Wu asked, puzzled.
“Here’s the thing, your first spirit ring isn’t the waist bow you originally planned to get, but the Moon-Guiding Ring that Grandmaster and I recommended to you. Don’t you think you should go back and tell your family about this?” Chen Feng coaxed patiently.
"No need, I can make this decision myself." Xiao Wu clearly didn't understand what he meant.
Chen Feng sighed inwardly, "You should know what I've been doing these past two days, right?"
This rabbit spirit is usually quite clever, why is she acting so foolish now? Could she have really been driven mad by Tang San's explosion?
"I know." Xiao Wu nodded, her eyes filled with a mixture of clarity and confusion. "You said you wanted to write the theories you had summarized into a paper, and you often went to ask the masters for questions."
"Yes, you should know roughly what I'm going to write about. So, do you think this paper will have any impact? Is it possible that it will attract the attention of some important figures?"
As Chen Feng spoke, he suddenly changed the subject, "Of course, I may be a bit arrogant, and this paper may sink without making a ripple, but in any case, I think soul skills are a matter of one's entire life, so you should still go back and discuss it with your family."
He looked at the stunned Xiao Wu and asked meaningfully:
What do you think, Xiao Wu?
Xiao Wu stopped cleaning her hair. Looking into Chen Feng's deep eyes, she finally realized something.
That is, Chen Feng must have seen through her situation, otherwise he wouldn't have come to persuade her to go back at this time.
Xiao Wu could no longer deceive herself and tell herself that it was all a coincidence.
Because she is someone who loves to join in the fun, if Chen Feng's published paper really will attract important people, then he shouldn't have come to persuade her to leave this place temporarily.
Instead, Chen Feng should boast to the important person about how amazing and talented he is when she arrives.
However, Chen Feng's current advice for her to leave indicates that he has already understood her situation and knows her weakness that cannot be detected by the strong.
So, Xiao Feng knows I'm a soul beast transformed into a human! Xiao Wu's mind was a complete mess.
On the other side, Tang Hao slowly put down the wine jug in his hand, his eyes filled with deep surprise.
"This is unbelievable! How did this kid find out? Could he also be a soul beast transformed into a human? Or one that can completely conceal his aura?"
"But his martial soul is a sword. What kind of soul beast that transforms into a human can have a sword martial soul? A sword spirit?"
"But what this kid said is right. I hope that little rabbit doesn't come back after it leaves. I don't want to see the same tragedy happen again."
Unaware that a certain Title Douluo was already questioning his identity, Chen Feng smiled and said to Xiao Wu:
"Xiao Wu, go back and meet with your family. Discuss the future with them."
Xiao Wu nodded, looking somewhat bewildered, and turned to leave.
Tang San sighed softly, "It seems I'll be without a sparring partner for a while."
"Am I not human?" Chen Feng said unhappily. "Am I even human?"
Tang San chuckled and said, "Weren't you supposed to be writing a thesis? You still have time to spar with me?"
"The paper was finished a long time ago and has already been sent out. This is a piece of cake for me." Chen Feng revealed a faint air of arrogance.
"Now we just have to wait and see what kind of reaction this paper will elicit."
Chen Feng was very confident in his academic abilities, and he believed that this paper, which combined knowledge from two worlds, would definitely be a hit.
Even if he catches a great white shark, as long as he can reason with people, Chen Feng is confident that he can control the situation.
The worst-case scenario is that we might fish up N'Zoth, an Old God who is insane, foolish, and incapable of communication; then we're doomed.
Chapter 37 The Master's Decision
Chen Feng wasn't afraid of being watched by Lao Deng, because he knew that certain people and forces would definitely be drawn to the scene.
As long as they follow the rules and reason, Chen Feng has nothing to fear; he believes he can handle these people.
If all else fails, he still has the Dai family's possessions in the fishpond as a shield.
This is also why he sent a letter to Dai Mubai two days in advance, so that the Dai family could arrive first.
Chen Feng was afraid that the people who came would not follow the rules and would just put a sack over their heads and run away, which would be very troublesome.
If that's the case, he can only protect Tang San in front of him and ask the Jade Emperor for help.
Chen Feng had made up his mind to follow Tang San closely for the next few days, trying his best to avoid being sacked by the unruly Lao Deng.
"Speaking of which, Xiao San, do you want to go back to Holy Soul Village and tell Uncle Tang Hao about the spirit ring?" Chen Feng asked while holding the Tai Chi Bagua Sword horizontally.
"I already told you, after you helped me analyze my martial soul, I went back and told my dad about it, but I didn't mention my mom." Tang San answered while struggling to control the Blue Silver Grass to throw the seeds.
This is a very difficult task, because Blue Silver Grass is not a hand; it is easy to roughly control Blue Silver Grass to entangle others.
However, if you want to precisely control multiple different Blue Silver Grass branches and leaves, and make them throw seeds using different methods at the same time, you must have the ability to focus on doing several things at the same time.
However, it is difficult for ordinary people to do two things at the same time. Drawing a square with the left hand and a circle with the right hand is not something that everyone can do, and Tang San is no exception.
Therefore, he probably still has a long way to go before he can achieve the training goals set for him by the master.
Chen Feng looked at Tang San, whose face was starting to sweat, and mentally gave a thumbs up to the Grandmaster's training ability. Then he asked:
