Chapter 72
------------
On the back of Aurel, we can see Lin Feng being hugged by Aria as Zhuqing calmly meditating.
''Suotuo City.'' Lin Feng said while looking at the mini-map.
''Hmm, we already entering the Balak kingdom territory, and the city should be around here.''
(Ah, there) He thought.
In the mini-map, he can see a significant amount of blue dots gathering in one place.
''Aurel.'' Lin Feng instructed his summons.
''Kuuu!'' Aurel nodded as she's slowing down her speed and descending from the skies.
''Noel, Silvy, and Aurel.''
''Their bond is already reaching around 95-97%,''
(It's slower than Aria and Kro) Lin Feng commented in his head.
He doesn't know if this is because Noel and Slvy do not come from the summoning and make the bonds grow slower.
But, Aurel comes from the summoning, and her bonds with him grow faster than Noel and Silvy, yet after one year, her bonds reached 73% and developing slowly until now.
Even though their bonds are growing slowly, Lin Feng can feel that they're faithful to him.
(Well, Just a little bit more, and they can undergo their awakening) He stated as Aurel landed in a small patch of forest.
''Thanks, Aurel.'' Lin Feng said while patting his summons.
''Kuu!'' Aurel nodded.
''Here is your reward.'' Lin Feng smiled while giving Aurel a pill.
''Kuu!'' Aurel released soft chirping while excitedly take the pill from Lin Feng's hand.
She's humming as she comes back into the summoning space.
''Well, let's go to the city.'' He said while averting his gaze to the city direction.
''I want to see how powerful is the soul masters in the great spirit arena.''
(After that, I'll go to the star dou forest) Lin Feng thought as he walked toward the city while Aria and Zhuqing are following him.
After walking for a few minutes, they finally arrived at the city.
''Not too bad, I guess.'' Lin Feng commented while looking around the city.
Even though clearly smaller than the heaven dou city, this city has a fairly big area and a moderately good residence.
''Meat Skewers.'' Lin Feng averted his gaze toward a street food stall.
''Let's taste it...'' He muttered while walked toward the food stalls.
''Uncle, I want to buy ten meat skewers.''
''Oh, ten meat skewers, right.'' The seller smiled when he saw Lin Feng.
''Mm,'' Lin Feng nodded.
''Here...'' The seller gives Lin Feng the meat skewers as he pays the skewers with one silver coin.
''This is too much.'' The seller said, to which Lin Feng responded with s shake of his head.
''You can take the money.'' Lin Feng stated.
They then keep walked around the city as a large building in the shape of the Colosseum appears before their eyes.
''Oh, this is the great spirit arena, huh.'' Lin Feng said with a little surprise.
(A Colosseum) He thought while tilting his head.
''Whatever,'' He shrugging off his shoulder.
''Zhuqing.''
''Mm, do you need something.'' Zhu Zhuqing responded as a glint of excitement appears in her eyes.
''I want you to fight in the arena,'' Lin Feng instructed, ''You can use all of your abilities.''
''But, remember to hold back a little bit and don't kill anyone.''
''So, only testing them?'' Zhu Zhuqing cutely tilted her head.
''What if they want to kill me.'' She asked.
''If their murderous aura is already too heavy, you can cut off their limbs and kill them.'' Lin Feng coldly answered while staring at a subordinate.
''Mm, I understand.'' Zhu Zhuqing nodded while walked toward the arena.
(Well, Let's see) Lin Feng thought as he walked to the arena.
He and Aria are calmly sitting in the audience seats as Zhuqing enters the arena.
(Uh, her enemy is a spirit elder) He thought while looking at the man with a crooked smile.
''First Fight.''
''Abyss Cat Girl VS Mad Viper.''
''Hahaha...'' Lin Feng laughed, ''Catgirl.''
''Fight!'' The referee shouted as Zhuqing suddenly disappears from the stage.
''Hmm,'' Mad Viper frowned, ''Where is she?''
''Behind you,'' Zhuqing answered while kicking the man in the side of his stomach.
''Uugh, my stomach.''
''I-I can't feel her presence.'' He whispered while falls to the ground.
(This girl is not ordinary) He thought while three spirit ring appears around him.
''Poison Gas!'' Mad Viper suddenly shouted as a green gas comes from his mouth.
The poison gas starts covering the area around his body, but a punch suddenly appears on his face.
''Uugh.''
''W-What.'' He shouted in surprise.
(My poison should be working right now) He thought as another punch appears on his face.
''Uugh.''
''Hmm, weak.'' Zhuqing's cold voice came into his ears as he suddenly blacks out and then fainted.
(Poison won't work on my body) Zhu Zhuqing thought while grabbing Mad Viper's body and throw it outside of the arena.
''Eh, she won.'' The referee stared at her with a surprised expression.
''A-Ah, Abyss Cat Girl Won!'' He declared.
''Next.'' Zhu Zhuqing stated while staring at the referee.
''Are you sure...''
''Next.'' She nodded.
''Next fighter.''
Zhu Zhuqing keeps challenging the fight as every enemy will lose in a matter of a few seconds.
Some of them can survive longer than the other, but that's because they are running from her.
A few spirit ancestors are also fighting her, but they lose as Zhuqing taking out a dagger and beat them with her speed and strength.
She's not even using her martial soul from the beginning of the fight.
After a few hours, we can see Zhuqing calmly standing on the stage as the referee trembling because of the shock.
''A-Abyss Cat Girl.''
''Ninety-nine winning streaks.''
''Next.'' Zhu Zhuqing stated.
''But, we don't have any spirit elder and ancestor anymore...'' The referee said while staring at her in awe.
''Spirit King.'' Zhu Zhuqing calmly responded, ''I want to fight a spirit king.
''Eh, huh.'' The referee is speechless.
''A-Are you sure...''
''Next.'' Zhu Zhuqing stated.
In the audience seats, Lin Feng and Aria are calmly observing the fight.
''She has become more powerful.'' Lin Feng commented with a smile.
''What do you think, Aria.''
''Mm, She's training hard.'' Aria nodded, ''So her strength has increased a lot.''
''Haha...'' He chuckled, ''Your training is effective.''
(Hmm, I need to increase her training by a little bit) Aria thought while staring at Zhuqing.
''Oh, a spirit king.'' Lin Feng said in surprise as a big man with a beard enters the arena.
''Crazy Golden Bull.'' The referee said while looking at the man.
''Hmm, this is my opponent?'' Crazy Golden Bull said while staring at Zhuqing.
''Isn't she just a slender girl.''
''I maybe break her body with only my first punch.'' He stated while tilting his head.
''Y-Yes.'' The referee said, ''She's the Abyss Cat Girl.''
''She already has ninety-nine winning streaks.''
''Oh, interesting.'' Crazy Golden Bull smiled.
''Start the fight.'' Zhu Zhuqing stated while staring at the referee.
(Well, what an interesting girl) Crazy Golden Bull thought.
''Abyss Cat Girl VS Crazy Golden Bull.'' The referee shouted.
''Fight!''
''Spirit Transformation.'' Zhu Zhuqing muttered as her body transforming.
Zhu Zhuqing's body is transforming as her left eye turned dark green, and the right eye became clear blue. Her fingers become claws as cat ears and tail appears.
She's only activating her martial soul but not materializing her spirit rings.
''Golden Bull.'' Crazy Golden Bull shouted as his body become larger while golden furs growing from his skins, and a pair of bull's horns appear on his head.
''One white, three yellow, and one purple.'' Zhu Zhuqing said while looking at the spirit rings around her opponent's body.
She then dashed forward while leaving an afterimage.
''Fast.'' Crazy Golden Bull's eyes widened as Zhuqing already appears in front of him.
''Shadow Slash.'' She said while slashing out her dagger and creating a black energy slash toward her enemy.
*Baam!*
Crazy Golden Bull hurriedly raised his hands in front of his chest but got pushed by the energy slash.
''Ugh, my arms.'' He groaned as cut wounds appear on his arms.
''It's not over...'' Zhu Zhuqing's voice is coming from behind him.
''Shadow Strike.''
She retracted her dagger and swiping her claws in a heavy motion.
''Aaah!'' He shouted in pain as her claw cutting his flesh.
''Golden Shield.''
A golden shield appears around his body as a frown appears on Zhuqing's face.
(Hmm, I want to save this technique, to be honest) Zhu Zhuqing commented while looking at the golden shield in front of her.
''But, I want to finish this.''
''Maybe, he will get surprised and give me a reward.'' She muttered while feeling Lin Feng's stare.
''Huu...'' She controlled her breath while infusing her energy into her body and the dagger.
''Shadow Burst.''
Zhu Zhuqing slashes out her dagger, and a burst appears in energy slash, which hits the golden shield.
*Boom!*
*Cough!*
''My shield...'' Crazy Golden Bull said in surprise as a cold feels appears on his neck.
''I won.'' Zhu Zhuqing stated.
''A-Abyss Cat Girl.''
''Won!''
''Aria...'' Lin Feng smiled, ''Did she just use energy slash with an energy burst.''
''Mm, looks like she learns the technique when seeing me fight a spirit beast.'' Aria nodded.
''As for the energy slash, she learns it from your sword art, Master.''
''Haha...'' Lin Feng laughed, ''What a surprise.''
(Maybe I should give her a reward) He thought while looking at Zhuqing.
But then Lin Feng sighed while looking at the arena.
''The great spirit arena.''
*Sigh*
''I thought, the great spirit arena will have an interesting spirit master.''
''But, it seems I expect too much.''
''My disappointment is immeasurable, and my day ruined.'' Lin Feng sighed while walked off from the audience seats.
''Let's go, Aria.''
''Mm,'' Aria nodded while following her master.
On the stage, Zhu Zhuqing is calmly looking at her opponent while releasing a sigh of relief as she walked away from the arena.
At the outside of the great spirit arena, Lin Feng and Aria is waiting for Zhuqing as she comes with a calm expression toward them.
''Good job.'' Lin Feng commented while patting Zhuqing's head.
''Mm,'' Zhu Zhuqing nodded while purring.
''Well, Let's go to the star dou forest.'' Lin Feng said.
