The day passed peacefully.

During this time, no additional unexpected events occurred.

The only ones who seemed a bit restless, even hurried, were a few individuals in Shrek Academy. For example, Oscar and Ma Hongjun, along with Flender and Zao Wou-ki.

Although Oscar's breakthrough happened in the morning, activities like hunting soul beasts to obtain soul rings couldn't be carried out immediately. Moreover, there was Ma Hongjun who also needed a ring.

Therefore, with a wave of Flender's hand, he set the departure date for the next morning.

This gave everyone in Shrek enough time to prepare their supplies. It was determined that not many people would be leaving. A total of eight people: Flender, Zao Wuji, Lu Yuan, Xiao Wu, Zhu Zhuqing, Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, and Oscar.

Although the team appeared relatively weak in terms of strength, considering they were only hunting soul beasts for soul rings...

The team's composition was actually quite good. Two Soul Sages were leading the team.

Even if a certain Soul King, who seriously disrupted the balance of combat power, was excluded, no academy could match this lineup.

Including the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

However, Flender never expected that when he stood at the village gate the next morning, the team was no longer comprised of eight members but had grown to thirteen people.

And the composition had changed as well. Two more Titled Douluo and one Soul Sage had been added.

"It seems like we're planning to hunt a hundred-thousand-year soul beast, not a thousand-year one," Flender complained inwardly,... He was a Soul Sage, and he was supposed to command two Titled Douluo?

And he was supposed to co-command with another Soul Sage who happened to be Ning Fengzhi, the Sect Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect?

Did they really expect him to command all these people? Wasn't it too much for him? Furthermore, there was also the Crown Prince of the Heaven Dou Empire in the team.

With a silent sigh, Flender suddenly felt exhausted.

Little did he know that this seemingly thirteen-member team was actually a fifteen-member team. And there were two more Titled Douluo hidden in the team.

Fortunately, Flender was unaware of the truth. Otherwise, he might have fainted on the spot. Even so, the pressure on Flender was quite high.

Fortunately, both Ning Fengzhi and Xue Qinghe were careful and intelligent individuals. After a somewhat awkward meeting, Flender's position in the team was settled with just a few words.

To this, Flender could only respond with a sheepish smile.

Although he wasn't as shrewd as the two cunning foxes before him, his years in the world of soul masters hadn't been in vain. Securing his command, at least, was true.

Reluctantly accepting this new responsibility, Flender could only hope that the journey ahead wouldn't be filled with too many twists and turns.

Flender tapped the ground with his toes, taking the lead and rushing forward.

Behind him came Zao Wuji, followed by the younger members, and then Ning Fengzhi.

As for Sword Douluo Chen Xin and Bone Douluo Gu Rong, they flanked the team, firmly protecting its core.

They were like two sharp swords and two sturdy shields.

With this formation, it would be extremely difficult for any harm to come to the individuals in the center of the team.

Unless...

There were two or more Titled Douluo lying in ambush beforehand. Only then would there be a possibility of breaching Chen Xin and Gu Rong's protective barriers.

However, why would there be two or more Titled Douluo present here?

Suppressing these fleeting thoughts, Chen Xin leisurely followed the footsteps of the group.

Of course, those who had horses would ride them. Unfortunately, apart from Lu Yuan and Xue Qinghe, the others didn't know how to ride horses.

Ma Hongjun and Oscar weren't qualified to ride horses at all. Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing never had the chance to ride horses.

Ning Fengzhi and Ning Rongrong were accustomed to riding in a carriage, not on horseback.

As for Xiao Wu... She didn't need a horse.

So, when the team set off, it looked rather peculiar.

Lu Yuan reached out and scooped up Xiao Wu, holding her in his arms. The two of them as they followed the group at a leisurely pace.

Xue Qinghe closely followed behind, riding a solid white horse.

"You seem to have a liking for white."

"Yes, indeed."

Xue Qinghe cast a disdainful look at Lu Yuan. What other color would this angelic being prefer if not white? Black or gold, perhaps?

"I prefer black seraphs. Are you sure they're not fallen angels?" she sarcastically remarked. As for gold...

Does she really have such poor taste. Of course, the martial soul itself still has a certain influence on its owner.

Take, for example, Xie Yue's bloodthirstiness, Yan's manic impulsiveness, Hu Liena's enchanting charm, Bibi Dong's cruelty, and Ning Fengzhi's all-around excellence.

These are clear examples. Martial spirits that have no influence are actually rare.

For instance, this guy in front of me...

Qian Renxue casually glanced at the silver pattern on the back of Lu Yuan's hand, marveling at the efficiency of the Martial soul.

Space-type martial souls can be quite unexpected. That woman, Bibi Dong, truly has an exceptional eye for recognizing and utilizing individuals!

Initially, even Lu Yuan had difficulty recognizing his martial soul after awakening it. It was too not noticable.

It was even more low-key than Tang San's Blue Silver Grass. Indeed, it's no wonder Su Yuntao couldn't identify it.

"However, I didn't expect it to be yours," Xue Qinghe said, pointing to the dragon horse beneath Lu Yuan's saddle with a hint of surprise in her voice.

Lu Yuan, looking surprised, responded, "You want it?"

"I'm afraid no one wouldn't be surprised when facing a dragon colt," Xue Qinghe replied with a smile, tactfully expressing her admiration.

Surprise...rather than envy or desire.

Lu Yuan understood the meaning behind her words. Thus, he chuckled and didn't bring up the topic again.

The sun slowly ascended to its highest point in the sky and began its descent toward the west, signaling the passage of time.

The setting sun painted the sky with hues of orange and red, indicating that nightfall was approaching.

Fortunately, they were almost at their destination. Hastening one's pace can be dull and tedious. Especially when traveling for the sake of traveling, exhaustion easily takes hold.

Thankfully, with the warm and comforting presence of Xiao Wu in his arms, Lu Yuan didn't succumb to drowsiness.

Even so, he appeared a little fatigued.

Observing her man's drooping head and sluggish demeanor with amusement, Xiao Wu reached out to touch Lu Yuan's face, giggled, and then turned around to give him a surprise kiss.

Xue Qinghe, who was nearby, witnessed the scene and felt a sensation fill her heart.

Of course, others in the team also felt somehow. This display of affection was just right... It caught them off guard.

The dragon horse beneath them exhaled a breath of white mist and gradually slowed its pace.

Although it was slightly tired, that wasn't the reason for the slowdown.

"Here we are," Flender declared, looking at the small town not far away. He glanced at the map, then stowed it away in his pocket. His voice, empowered by soul power, instantly spread throughout the team.

This resolved the issue of riding horses.

The Star Dou Great Forest wasn't very far from Soto—only 500 kilometers, which could be covered in a day.

However, it was too late to start practicing horsemanship now.

Riding too slowly or lacking proficiency would only slow down the team's progress.

Traveling by carriage was too slow and not as convenient as running directly.

As for Ning Fengzhi's suggestion...

Is he insane? To use the power of the increase? Doesn't it require energy and refining of soul power?
