After all, ever since the last time they met in the Star Dou Forest,Bibi Dong hadn't seen Zhang Fan for quite a while.
She had been longing to hug him.
Now, feeling the warmth from his body, she couldn't help but enjoy it.
But even in his embrace, her excited heart couldn't calm down.
Suddenly, she held his face in her hands and kissed his soft, sexy lips.
She was a greedy woman. Since Zhang Fan was willing to hug her…
Then if she kissed him on her own initiative—
He wouldn't reject her, right?
Bibi Dong hugged him tightly.
Afraid he might slip away from her grasp, she held on with strength.
After all, she had been alone for over twenty years. Very lonely.
Ever since she met this young man, she felt like he brought light with him—Light that illuminated her barren, desolate life.
That barren heart of hers felt lit up again, making her thrilled and excited.
"Mmm..."Zhang Fan hadn't expected Bibi Dong to kiss him like that.He was both surprised and excited. After all, Bibi Dong was stunning—And she was someone who was incredibly loyal in love.
Once she fell in love, she would remain as devoted as ever.
After a while…
Bibi Dong and Zhang Fan separated.
Her face was flushed red, her heart beating rapidly. Her legs were weak—Zhang Fan quickly wrapped an arm around her waist to steady her.
Only then did she manage to stand firmly.
"Thank you!"Bibi Dong said gently. "I have to go now. See you next time!"As soon as she finished speaking, she flew out the window—reluctant to part from Zhang Fan.
Zhang Fan watched her figure fly off toward Spirit Hall. Then he turned around and left the room, returning to the Blue Star Academy's rest area.
He found Tang San lying there like a dead dog, sulking in gloom.
Yu Xiao Gang kept trying to comfort him.
Xiao Wu and the others saw Zhang Fan return and all stood up, walking toward him.
"Brother Fan, where did you go?"Xiao Wu asked curiously.
"Went to meet someone,"Zhang Fan shrugged and pursed his lips. "Let's go watch the match between Spirit Hall Academy and Heaven Dou Imperial Academy."
"Okay!" The group followed Zhang Fan out of the rest area.
After walking for a bit, they saw the seed team representing the Heaven Dou Empire—Heaven Dou Imperial Academy's battle team.
At the front stood Yu Tianheng, who possessed the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul.
"Didn't expect you to be so strong. You even defeated Star Luo Imperial Academy with ease!"Yu Tianheng looked at Zhang Fan with burning eyes.
Zhang Fan replied calmly, "You guys are pretty good too. You've improved quickly."
Hearing Zhang Fan's compliment, Yu Tianheng could only shake his head with a wry smile.
"I had hoped for a proper match against you, but we never got the chance.Spirit Hall Academy's team is just too strong. Even if we lose, we'll give it our all.Maybe only you guys stand a chance against them."
"Then good luck!"
Zhang Fan knew that Heaven Dou Imperial Academy would lose.But at least Yu Tianheng had some self-awareness.The Spirit Hall Academy team was indeed powerful—Heaven Dou Academy couldn't match them.
"Thanks!"
Yu Tianheng then led his teammates toward the battle stage.
During the second round of the competition,Spirit Hall Academy didn't even send out the three holders of the legendary Purple Record Medals—Yet they still easily defeated their opponents.
Now, with three new faces at the front, the Spirit Hall Academy team stepped out again.These three walked steadily and confidently, exuding an overwhelming aura and belief in their strength.
Their uniforms were completely white, embroidered with six symbols representing Spirit Hall.
The three at the front wore purple, book-shaped badges on their left chest—symbols of honor.
Leading them was a tall young man, standing over 1.9 meters.His short black hair stood up like steel needles.His expression was calm, hands relaxed at his sides, eyes fixed coldly on Yu Tianheng.
Yu Tianheng's gaze also turned cold.
At his side were one man and one woman.
The man had long, fiery red hair cascading down his back. Even his eyes were dark red.His looks were plain, but intimidating.
The woman—only girl among the three—had long black hair, and her appearance resembled the leader.She gave off a unique charm—quite beautiful.
"These three are the golden trio of Spirit Hall's Golden Generation.""The one in front is Xie Yue, a Level 52 Power-Attack System Soul King. Martial Soul: Moon Blade.The red-haired guy is Yan, also Level 52 Fire-Attribute Power-Attack System Soul King. Martial Soul: Flame Lord.The girl is Hu Liena, a Level 51 Control-Type Soul King. Martial Soul: Fox.Xie Yue and Hu Liena took their surnames from their parents and inherited different Martial Souls.Aside from these three, there are two more Power-Attack Soul Kings."
Dugu Bo walked over and explained to Zhang Fan and the others.
Liu Erlong silently took mental notes.
As the referee announced the start of the match—
Yu Tianheng released his Martial Soul and charged forward.
Xie Yue, Yan, and Hu Liena all glowed with two yellow, two purple, and one black soul rings—All the best possible combinations.
The battle began instantly.
Five members of Heaven Dou Imperial Academy were soon blasted off the stage.
Only Yu Tianheng and Dugu Yan remained, struggling to hold on.
But in the end, they lost.
The third round concluded.
Only six teams remained in the tournament.
Among the three seeded teams, only Spirit Hall Academy was left.
The remaining six teams were all extremely powerful.
The matchups for tomorrow would be decided by lottery.
The strength of Spirit Hall's Golden Generation had shocked the crowd.But Blue Star Academy was also a major favorite in this tournament.
After all, the mysterious Zhang Fan had yet to use a single soul ring.
Spectators were dying to know just what his soul power level was.
Of course, academies like Godwind Academy and other Heaven Dou academies already knew Zhang Fan's true strength.
Even Spirit Hall Academy was aware of Zhang Fan's soul power.
After all, Elder Chrysanthemum had already tested his true strength.
Later on, Zhang Fan brought Zhu Zhuqing to the rest area of Star Luo Imperial Academy.
Knock knock... He tapped on the door.
"Who is it?"Dai Weisi's voice came from inside.
"It's us."Zhang Fan replied calmly.
Creak...Dai Weisi opened the door and saw Zhang Fan and Zhu Zhuqing standing there.
"You're here about Zhu Zhuqing's engagement to Dai Mubai, right?"Dai Weisi spoke seriously.
"Yes. Since we've won, Zhu Zhuqing has decided to call off the engagement with Dai Mubai."Zhang Fan said flatly.
"That's easy. I'll tell the Emperor when I get back. No problem."Dai Weisi nodded. This meant Dai Mubai would no longer be his rival for the throne.
Since Zhu Zhuqing didn't like Dai Mubai,Dai Weisi was more than happy to help.
"Alright then, that's that."Zhang Fan shrugged.
Just then, Zhu Zhuyun walked out from the room.
"Little sister, not even a word with me?"Zhu Zhuyun asked.
"Nothing to say."Zhu Zhuqing shook her head.
"Alright then."Zhu Zhuyun sighed. "Good luck to you both. Hope you win the championship."
"Thank you."Zhu Zhuqing nodded and left with Zhang Fan.
