Chapter 17 Gu Yuena's Second Martial Soul?
After logging out of the Star Battle Network and returning to the real world, Meng Xinghe opened his phone and sent a message to Gu Yuena.
Meng Xinghe: The three-year period has come to an end. Have you booked your plane ticket yet?
The other party replied almost instantly.
Gu Yuena: It's already booked. It's the first flight tomorrow morning, departing from Shrek South City Airport, and I'll arrive at Donghai Airport around noon.
Gu Yuena: There's one more thing, I've also reached rank 4 in the ranked ladder!
Meng Xinghe: Fourth dan, so you've broken through?
Gu Yuena: Hmm, to keep my combat power within a reasonable range, I naturally need to break through to raise my rank to fourth. (jpg)
Looking at the pictures sent by Gu Yuena, Meng Xinghe clicked to view them:
ID: Elemental Silver Dragon
Rank: 4th Dan (404)
Ten-game winning streak: Winning ten consecutive games without a single loss. (Currently, you have accumulated a 44-game winning streak; another 56 games will unlock the achievement "100-game winning streak".)
Undefeated Advancement to First Stage: Including the promotion matches, there has been no defeats in any of the matches at the first stage.
Undefeated Advancement to Second Dan: Including the advancement matches, the second dan has never lost a single game.
Undefeated Advancement to Rank 3: Including the promotion matches, I have never lost a single game in my rank 3 matches.
Undefeated Legend 3: Undefeated since entering the ranked matches. (Continue your efforts and advance to rank 5 with unparalleled success to activate the achievement "Undefeated Legend 4")
Yes, same rank, same achievements, only the points and winning streak are different.
Because the matchmaking principle of the ladder tournament is to match the nearest player, and because Meng Xinghe is in Donghai City in the east of the continent and Gu Yuena is in Shrek City in the central part of the continent, they are separated by a great distance.
Given the distance, it's almost impossible for them to be matched together at their current skill levels.
Since they never met, their combined strength allowed them to maintain an undefeated record.
Meanwhile, the factors of proximity matching and the IP address being located in Shrek City make Gu Yuena's undefeated record more valuable than Meng Xinghe's.
It is an undeniable objective fact that the number of Soul Masters in the East China Sea region is not as great as that in the central region of the continent where Shrek City is located.
Therefore, the average strength of the opponents that Gu Yuena was matched with was far higher than that of the opponents that Meng Xinghe was matched with.
Looking at Gu Yuena's ID, Meng Xinghe smiled, edited the text, and sent it.
Meng Xinghe: Elemental Little Silver Dragon. With such an ID, aren't you afraid that people will associate your fabricated "Elementalist Martial Soul" with your identity as a silver dragon?
In the luxurious and classic room, Gu Yuena lay comfortably on the sofa, casually picking up a peeled grape with her left hand and putting it into her mouth to taste.
Upon seeing the message sent by Meng Xinghe, Gu Yuena smiled and quickly typed and sent the message with one hand.
Gu Yuena: What's there to be afraid of? I'm not alone. So many people are standing behind me. Even if I lose all my abilities, I'm not afraid of anything.
Looking at his phone screen, Meng Xinghe smiled with satisfaction.
Look, this is what a child who grew up in a loving family has achieved—a healthy development of mind and body, so cheerful and optimistic.
With this in mind, Meng Xinghe continued editing the text and sending it.
Meng Xinghe: Do you remember the second martial soul slot I mentioned to you?
Gu Yuena: I remember, before I awakened my martial soul, you asked me to reserve a second martial soul slot that was not yet finalized. I asked you why then, but you wouldn't tell me.
Meng Xinghe: Yeah, but you still did it even though I didn't tell you. And it was a surprise. If I had told you then, would it still be a surprise?
surprise?
Gu Yuena's amethyst-like eyes brightened a little.
Based on her understanding of Meng Xinghe, anything that could be called a surprise was definitely extraordinary.
However, the message she sent was not like that.
Gu Yuena: What surprise? Don't keep me in suspense only to disappoint me later.
Meng Xinghe: Don't worry, it will definitely surprise and delight you.
On the balcony, Meng Xinghe put down his phone, picked up a bunch of amethyst grapes that Gu Yuena had mailed, peeled one, and tasted it, thinking:
Yes, it was an absolute surprise.
After all, that was the other half of the Dragon God...

"Brother Huo, I have great news for you. I've broken through."
In the small house, in the small room, on the small bed, Tang Wulin looked excited, but strangely, he didn't speak, and there was no one else in the room.
"Well done, Xiao Wulin."
Tang Wulin's spiritual sea manifested a blurry man whose face was indistinct but whose eyes were exceptionally bright, as if they could see right through people's hearts.
Within the sea of spirit, Tang Wulin's figure also manifested.
Logically speaking, he shouldn't be able to do this with his mental strength, but with Brother Huo around, everything is not a problem.
Brother Huo, a mysterious figure.
From the time Tang Wulin could remember, Brother Huo had been in his heart, like a kind older brother, accompanying him as he grew up alongside his parents.
Tang Wulin did not tell his parents about Brother Huo's existence because it was their little secret.
Heaven knows, Earth knows.
You know, I know.
From a very young age, Tang Wulin played in his family's small yard, which was covered with blue silver grass.
Brother Huo told him that his unawakened martial soul was Blue Silver Grass, and that doing so would be of great benefit to him.
Sure enough, on the day of his awakening at the age of six, he awakened the infamous useless martial soul, Blue Silver Grass.
According to federal statistics, out of 10,000 children who awaken the Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul, only one child awakens the accompanying Soul Power.
Fortunately, Tang Wulin was one of those lucky ones, one in ten thousand.
Blue Silver Grass Soul Masters typically have innate soul power between half a level and three levels, but Tang Wulin awakened an innate soul power as high as level seven because he used the method taught to him by Brother Huo from a young age.
After realizing the day of awakening, Tang Wulin trusted and relied on Brother Huo even more.
In his mind, Brother Huo was mysterious, powerful, and knowledgeable. He seemed to know everything and be able to do everything. Even the meditation method he was using now was taught to him by Brother Huo.
Because this meditation method was created specifically for Blue Silver Grass Soul Masters, it is called the Blue Silver Meditation Method.
With the combination of diligent effort, innate seventh-level talent, and the efficiency of the Blue Silver Meditation Technique, Tang Wulin broke through to the tenth level of soul power before he was even seven years old.
Tang Wulin's outstanding talent enabled him to successfully apply for an interest-free loan for his first soul spirit, which he used to purchase and contract a hundred-year-old Blue Silver Grass soul spirit at the Spirit Pagoda.
"Brother Huo, I am so lucky to have met you."
Tang Wulin ran forward and gave the blurry figure of Brother Huo a big hug, saying with a face full of gratitude:
"Without you, I wouldn't have awakened such a high level of innate soul power, wouldn't have met the conditions for applying for an interest-free loan, my martial soul and soul spirit wouldn't have evolved on their own, and I wouldn't have broken through to become a Great Soul Master at the age of nine."
"Silly child, I'm your brother-in-law. If I don't help you, who will?" Brother Huo thought to himself.
During the upheaval in the God Realm, Tang San's divine consciousness left in Tang Wulin's body was erased by him and replaced with his own.
Huo Yuhao's divine consciousness still vividly remembers the expression on Tang San's face when he looked at him—how furious! How incredulous!
Indeed, in terms of the Douluo Continent's timeline, Huo Yuhao had been treated like a dog by Tang San for thousands of years, being so humble and without dignity.
Tang San was so humbled that he couldn't believe Huo Yuhao would betray him.
betray?
Huo Yuhao sneered inwardly.
He never pledged allegiance to Tang San, so how could he have betrayed him?
Tang San, you turned my beloved Dong'er into Tang Wutong, who only has eyes for you, her father.
Now the tables have turned, and I'm going to make you taste the pain I went through!
But don't worry, I won't harm Wu Lin. I will only raise him to be a person with upright values, so that he can see with his own eyes what you, Tang San, have done.
Tang San, this is the biggest difference between you and me!
