"Stop spouting nonsense!"
Hearing her younger sister Shui Yue'er speak like that, Shui Bing'er's graceful and gentle face held helplessness as she lightly patted her sister's head.
"Young Master Ye Yu is indeed outstanding, but when it cos to love, I prefer soone who is single-minded."
In the Douluo Continent—a world where strength is everything—Shui Bing'er certainly admired n who had exceptional talent, great power, and were also handso and elegant. Ideally, they should also be gifted and accomplished in various fields.
Ye Yu checked all of those boxes.
And during the finals of the Continental Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournant, in her battle against Ye Yu as part of the Heaven Dou Royal Team, Shui Bing'er had indeed developed a strong fondness for him.
However, beyond that, she also longed for a man who would love only her.
This was because Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er were half-sisters—sa father, different mothers. In other words, their father had multiple wives.
When she was younger, Shui Bing'er had often heard her mother complain that their father had not visited them for a long ti because he was spending ti with his other wives and concubines.
Because of this, she had silently made a promise to herself since childhood:
When she grew up, she would find a man who would love only her. She would be his one and only.
"What's so great about single-minded love?"
After Shui Bing'er tapped her on the head, Shui Yue'er playfully rubbed her scalp as if in pain, but mumbled in a low voice:
"Those weak and useless n can only afford one wife."
"But soone like Young Master Ye Yu—with his unparalleled talent, strength, looks, and brilliant mind—it's only natural for him to have many wives!"
"Honestly, sis, you're hopeless. A man this exceptional is right in front of you and you don't even try to snatch him."
"If I had your looks and charm, I would've fought for him long ago!"
"In fact, I was hoping once you got in, I could follow as your handmaid and serve by his side too!"
Unlike Shui Bing'er, Shui Yue'er had grown up surrounded by polygamy. To her, it wasn't strange or unacceptable. She believed that as long as her future husband was strong and handso, having multiple wives was perfectly fine.
Of course, he also needed to be capable and talented—what girl didn't love a brilliant hero?
anwhile, back in the arena—
Faced with Feng Xiaotian's challenge, Ye Yu's handso face showed a faint, speechless smile.
This guy… was the ultimate simp!
After all the strength Ye Yu had shown in the Continental Tournant, where did Feng Xiaotian even get the courage to challenge him?
"You're not my opponent."
That was all Ye Yu said to the Spirit Ancestor–level Feng Xiaotian before turning away, not bothering with him further.
Instead, he turned to Dugu Yan and Ning Rongrong and asked:
"Yan Yan, Rongrong, did you finish your matches for the evening?"
"All done!" the two girls nodded.
"In that case, let's head back," Ye Yu said, gathering Dugu Yan, Ning Rongrong, Ye Lingling, and Zhu Zhuqing, and calling over Huo Wu as well.
But seeing Ye Yu so casually dismiss him—especially in front of his goddess Huo Wu—Feng Xiaotian was consud with rage and humiliation.
He refused to back down.
"Stormwind Doubleheaded Wolf, Possession!"
With a shout, Feng Xiaotian summoned his Martial Soul, the Stormwind Doubleheaded Wolf, entering Spirit Possession mode.
The phantom of the Stormwind Doubleheaded Wolf erged behind him and fused into his body. Imdiately, his physique grew taller, his muscles swelled, and his exposed skin sprouted greenish-blue fur. His hands transford into sharp claws, his eyes beca wolf-like, and a pair of ears sprouted atop his head. A second wolf head erged on his shoulder.
Two yellow and two purple Spirit Rings rose beneath him and circled around his body.
Then, the third Spirit Ring lit up.
"Third Spirit Ability: Stormwind Wings!"
With a roar, a pair of green wind-elental wings ford on his back. With a sharp flap, he shot into the sky and unleashed his First Spirit Ability—Wind Blade Burst, launching ten sharp wind blades toward Ye Yu.
However, Feng Xiaotian didn't really aim to hurt him.
He was provoking Ye Yu—hoping to bait him into accepting the fight.
Ye Yu understood this clearly.
As the ten wind blades sliced through the air from behind, Ye Yu simply turned around, summoned his Blue Silver Jade Tree Martial Soul, and planted it firmly into the ground.
That massive, crystal-blue tree trunk instantly deflected all ten wind blades with ease.
In the next instant—
Ye Yu activated his upgraded self-created Spirit Ability: Dominating Heaven (Upgraded).
A surge of crimson blood energy exploded from his body, fusing with his spiritual power.
Behind him, a faint image of a colossal Thousand-Hand Vajra erged—blood-red and towering.
A crushing aura—like a superior life form's magnetic field—and a domineering will burst out from Ye Yu's body, rippling across the surroundings like a tsunami.
The mont Dominating Heaven was released, everyone nearby—especially the girls closest to Ye Yu—felt their minds go blank, their limbs weaken, and their bodies collapse backward.
Thankfully, the roots of the Blue Silver Jade Tree caught them in ti.
But the spectators weren't as lucky.
Dozens, then hundreds, of Spirit Masters and onlookers all collapsed like falling wheat under a scythe, felled by the sheer might of Ye Yu's spirit pressure and killing intent.
High in the sky, Feng Xiaotian's mind also blanked out.
His body seized up mid-air, consciousness gone. Like a bird with broken wings, he plumted toward the ground.
Before he could hit the floor, a whip-like branch from the Blue Silver Jade Tree lashed out and struck him mid-air—smashing him into the arena wall with a loud crack! before he slumped to the ground, coughing blood.
Ye Yu finally deactivated Dominating Heaven.
Only after a while did the crowd regain consciousness, fear lingering in their eyes as they staggered to their feet.
"What the hell was that just now?!"
"Why did I suddenly go blank and feel like I was going to die?!"
"Was that a self-created Spirit Ability?! That's insane!"
"Yue'er!"
Shui Bing'er helped her sister up, still shocked.
She hadn't expected Ye Yu to have created such a terrifying and overpowering self-created Spirit Ability.
Lying in a heap on the ground, Feng Xiaotian spat out more blood, bitterness filling his heart.
He knew he wasn't Ye Yu's equal—but he never thought Ye Yu could insta-kill him with just a single move.
Once, he had been regarded as the number one prodigy in Heaven Dou City.
But now, it was all a joke.
"You're not my opponent."
Those were Ye Yu's final words to Feng Xiaotian as he retracted his Martial Soul.
"I hope you won't bother Huo Wu again."
With that, Ye Yu left with the girls.
Feng Xiaotian, bruised and broken, could only lie there, fists clenched as he watched Huo Wu leave without even glancing back.
Tears stread down his face as he burst out laughing in bitter despair—until he roared toward the sky in utter anguish.
"Aaaaaah!!!"
Having been away for over half a year, Ye Yu returned this ti to assess the progress of the girls' training in Mysterious Heaven Skill, which they had been cultivating through the Demon Willow Fluff ridians.
After inspecting their progress, Ye Yu found that most of their cultivation had been focused on enhancing their main ridians, so all of them were around the Spirit Grandmaster level in Mysterious Heaven Skill.
As for Tang Sect techniques:
Purple Demon Eye relied more on steady, long-term training, so everyone was at a similar level.
Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track was best mastered by Zhu Zhuqing, followed by Dugu Yan, then Ye Lingling and Ning Rongrong.
Huo Wu, being the newest mber, was the weakest in all areas—Mysterious Heaven Skill, Purple Demon Eye, and Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track.
Still, Huo Wu had chosen to learn an extra art—Controlling Crane, Capturing Dragon—to boost her combat power.
She also wanted to learn Mysterious Jade Hand, but without Ye Yu's reincarnated experience or cheat-like shortcuts, she could only focus on two primary Tang Sect arts for now.
After staying in the Dugu estate for a few days, Ye Yu set out once more—this ti taking Ah Yin and Xiao Wu with him—heading for the Star Dou Great Forest.
His goal?
To hunt more Spirit Beasts, use the external Spirit Bone, Demon Willow Fluff, and break through Rank 80…
And awaken the Blue Silver Emperor bloodline to self-generate his eighth Spirit Ring!
