Chapter 54: Spirit Fighting Talisman, Martial Soul, and the Nine Heart Begonia

Listening to Nan Feihuang's question, Qin Ming shook his head, "No, Feihuang, you have already reached the level of a Silver Spirit, and student Xun's score is also close, so starting today, I want to have you try team battles."

Although Qin Ming knew that Nan Feihuang and Xun Yu would eventually leave the team, and that in the future, it would have to be the Shi Jia Xiong Di who participated in the grand assembly with Yu Tianheng and the others.

But he could not let Yu Tianheng and the others stop their team battle training just because the Shi Jia Xiong Di were not there.

Although Nan Feihuang was a Strong Attack System Spirit Master, he was proficient in both offense and defense; when Xun Yu summoned Pudao Soldiers, he was also equivalent to a Defense-Type Soul Master, and by pairing with them, he could still train the team battle capabilities of Tianheng and the others.

As for the Shi Jia Xiong Di, they were actually the ones who needed training the least, because what a Defense-Type Soul Master must do is guard the rear well.

In any case, during team battles, the job of those two was to protect Ye Lingling and Dugu Yan.

It had been like this before, and even if they practiced for another three years in the future, it would be the same job, so the departure of the Shi Jia Xiong Di did not have much impact on the training.

On the contrary, this could be used to let Ye Lingling, who had lost her protection, learn self-protection skills on the battlefield.

It was just a pity that a very important factor had been overlooked by him; with Nan Feihuang charging in front and Xun Yu summoning a whole crowd to stay in the rear, it would be strange if she were in any danger.

Yu Tianheng walked to the registration desk and handed the list to the receptionist, "Heaven Dou Battle Team, seven people registering, team battle, Soul Fighting!"

He was clearly a regular at the Soul Fighting Arena, his words concise and to the point; it was just that since they had not yet obtained the name of Imperial Battle Team, they were registering under the name of Heaven Dou Academy.

"Alright, everyone, get ready. Now we just have to wait for the Soul Fighting Arena to arrange an opponent for us," Yu Tianheng said as he walked toward the group, "I have a private box at the Soul Fighting Arena, let's go there to rest first."

Nan Feihuang pulled Xun Yu over, "Wenruo, where have you been these past few days? Spending all your time with Ye Lingling, aren't you being a bit too obsessed with romance and neglecting your friends? Besides, 'simps' never end well!"

If Xun Yu were pursuing Ye Lingling by pestering her, Nan Feihuang expressed that he did not think highly of him.

"Hehe, Your Highness, you underestimate me too much. It is true that I have been with Lingling these past few days, but I have not been pestering her; she is quite willing to be with me," Xun Yu laughed. How could he not know that blindly clinging to a girl—especially an outstanding girl like Ye Lingling—was useless if one only relied on fawning and acting like a 'simp'?

The most important thing was to show one's own excellence and let the girl see the aspects that could attract her.

Wasn't that exactly how Nan Feihuang treated Xue Ke?

That first gambling debt was just Xun Yu wanting to let Ye Lingling understand his intentions; after that, there was no need for such things.

Since Ye Lingling hated behavior that involved getting something for nothing, yet she was indeed short on money, Xun Yu simply let her obtain the share she deserved.

"Your Highness, take this, the income from these past few months," Xun Yu suddenly tossed a Gold Soul Coin card to Nan Feihuang, "There are about fifty thousand Gold Soul Coins inside; I earned them."

"Student Xun, you earned fifty thousand Gold Soul Coins in just a few months? How did you do it?" Xue Ke exclaimed. Although she was a Princess, she was not someone who lived in total ignorance of the outside world; because she admired her brother, she had learned about the average income in Tiandou City.

Xun Yu's speed of making money was simply a miracle.

"It's nothing, just working, Your Highness. My level is now twenty-eight, so the number of soldiers I can summon has reached fifty-eight. Fifty-eight people working day and night, digging foundations, building houses, moving cement—a whole bunch of work. Relying on the 007 work schedule and getting paid daily wages, it wasn't difficult," Xun Yu laughed.

"Wenruo, but I remember that the soldiers you summon are no different from ordinary people; they get tired and can die. Once they reach their limit, you must summon them again. Working day and night, where do you get such deep soul power?" Nan Feihuang was puzzled. Xun Yu was not a Title Douluo, just a mere Great Soul Master; how could his soul power be squandered like this?

"Relying on myself alone, of course, it would be impossible, but isn't Lingling here? Her Nine Heart Begonia is the Heavenly First Healing; not only can it heal injuries, but it can also restore physical strength. As long as my soldiers don't work themselves to death, there is no need to re-summon them," Xun Yu said.

"After Lingling's soul power is exhausted, I re-summon them once, and then wait for them to reach their limit again. By then, Lingling has recovered her soul power through Meditation, and she continues to heal. I take the opportunity to meditate, and by the time she is exhausted again, I have long since fully recovered. Repeating this cycle, my soldiers are completely on a 007 work schedule. Your Highness and the Princess can imagine how high the work efficiency is."

"Moreover, because the meditation time has been extended, both of our soul powers have improved quite a bit recently. Cultivation and work are both taken care of. This is truly killing two birds with one stone!"

"As for the money earned, Lingling and I split it seven-three; I take seven and she takes three. This time, it was obtained after she put in the labor, so she was naturally very happy and could accept it with peace of mind."

"So that's how it is. Wenruo, you fellow, you are too clever," Nan Feihuang said with admiration. By alternating rest, he turned his soldiers into a perpetual motion machine, letting fifty-eight brothers cooperate to pursue a girl while earning money on the side—only Xun Yu could pull that off.

It was clear that the relationship between Ye Lingling and Xun Yu had improved quite a bit now.

Not to mention the degree of affection, but Ye Lingling at least already regarded him as a friend, and she also greatly appreciated his cleverness.

"By the way, Your Highness, I know you want to obtain items from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and a piece of intelligence from the Clear Sky Sect. I already have a way, and along the way, I can also make those two great sects restless. If I can help you obtain them, can I earn a title of nobility for this merit?" A sentence entered Nan Feihuang's ear; Xun Yu had said this using the Sound Transmission Secret Technique.

Xue Ke could not hear it.

The Sound Transmission Secret Technique was not some high-end technique; not to mention that it was in the Dunjia Heavenly Book, many people in this world knew it.

To ensure that important information would not be leaked, Nan Feihuang had also let Xun Yu and the others learn it, but unfortunately, it was only effective on Xun Yu.

Because Dian Wei always had only one sentence, "Yes, my Lord!"—just those three words, so it didn't matter whether it was encrypted or not.

As for Lv Lingqi, with a bunch of "ah ah ahs," who could understand her?

"Really?" Nan Feihuang became a bit interested. He was very ambitious; if he coveted the world in the future, the Spirit Hall and the Seven Great Sects were hurdles that could not be bypassed.

If he could make them encounter some trouble so that they would have no time to pay attention to him for a long time, that would be a good thing.

There was only one point that made Nan Feihuang somewhat troubled, "Wenruo, I can keep this merit in my heart, but this merit cannot be brought out into the open. I can't exactly ask the Kingdom to give you a title on the grounds that you helped me scheme against two great sects."

"Hmm, that's true. No matter, I believe that in the future, I will definitely be able to produce a great merit that can be brought out into the open," Xun Yu smiled.

He was not the only one he wanted to use the two great sects against; it was fine to store this merit for the time being. He indeed still needed a legitimate merit that would allow even Nan Tianchen to have nothing to say when granting him a title.
