Under the bright sunlight, Ning Rongrong's soft body rose and fell gently.
Today, putting on her stockings was unusually difficult—she couldn't find the right holes.
She fumbled around, moving left and right, up and down, for quite some time, until finally…
"Ah, got it!"
Ning Rongrong let out a delicate exclamation as her slender leg slipped through the white stocking, stretching it to its full length. The sensation was indescribably satisfying.
Seeing her struggle for so long but finally succeed, Xiao Yan let out a subtle sigh of relief.
After being rewarded the night before, Ning Rongrong's expression was radiant, her gaze and movements carrying an unspoken charm.
She wore a pure white dress, the hem brushing her knees, with a black lace ribbon around her waist. Her soft, slender figure seemed almost too delicate to hold, her long, black hair flowing freely. Beneath the pristine dress, her legs were exposed, flawless and elegant.
Noticing that one of her stockings still wasn't properly in place, Xiao Yan reached out and grabbed her fair leg.
As his gaze fell upon her feet, he couldn't help but be surprised.
Pure white, delicate, and perfectly proportioned—like a work of art, flawless in every detail.
"Trimmed to perfection, wrapped in spring clouds like jade," he murmured softly.
Her ankles were slender, the curves of her insteps smooth and delicate, almost like fine white jade, radiating a soft luster and a faint, pleasant fragrance. Her toes were neat and slightly curled, like five pale petals tinged with red.
"I never really noticed before…" Xiao Yan chuckled, helping her pull up the remaining stocking.
Now grown, Ning Rongrong's skin was soft as cream, luminous as silk. Her features were exquisite, delicate, and captivating, like the petals of a rose. Her eyes were clear, shimmering faintly, framed by long, curling lashes, with a graceful neck exposed beneath her flowing hair.
Every gesture exuded a natural, refined charm, the innocence of a noble young lady.
Yet only Xiao Yan knew the mischievous spirit hidden beneath that graceful exterior.
After breakfast, Xiao Yan asked Ning Rongrong and the others to review their battle from the previous night, while he stepped outside onto the grass to assess the new Soul Hall member, Yan Zhi.
From basic observations: sixteen years old, an orphan, she had been working while cultivating after finishing as a working student. Though not much older than Xiao Xue and the others, she appeared far more mature. She had just returned to Soto City after obtaining a new soul ring the previous night.
But what mattered most to Xiao Yan was her "useless" potential.
He probed her body with his spiritual power, confirming that she was healthy, without hidden injuries, then asked, "How is the first stage of Xuantian Gong?"
Facing a Soul Hall leader far stronger than her, Yan Zhi dared not underestimate him. She recalled that he had stayed behind last night to kill the three intruders, and felt a mix of fear and respect as she replied,"Some of the acupoints and movements I remember, but for the more complex names, it might take me some time."
Xiao Yan nodded. "That's normal—just focus on remembering the essentials. By the way, I still don't know your martial soul."
Yan Zhi pursed her lips, hesitant. "My martial soul is… unusual. It's neither a beast soul nor a weapon soul."
Unusual? Excellent! Xiao Yan's interest peaked. A mutant martial soul was an incredibly rare treasure.
"Then release it for me to see."
Yan Zhi extended her hands, channeling her spiritual power. Instantly, her hands transformed into blood-red, like a pair of bloody skeletal hands.
"These are my martial soul—Skeleton Blood Hands. The Soul Hall steward who awakened my soul said it might be a mutated beast soul."
"A mutated beast soul?" Xiao Yan carefully examined her martial soul with spiritual power and shook his head slightly. "I don't think so. Martial souls are diverse. Besides beast and weapon souls, there are other types.
Since your soul manifests through your hands, it seems to belong to your body itself. Perhaps in the future, some might awaken martial souls in their eyes or ears. Martial souls like yours belong to the category of body-bound martial souls."
"Body-bound martial soul?" Yan Zhi stroked her bloody hands thoughtfully.
Xiao Yan nodded seriously. "A body-bound martial soul comes from your own body, so it doesn't require adapting to a large beast form or a weapon. Using it is intuitive and natural.
Your Skeleton Blood Hands are quite strong. The main drawback is cultivation speed, but once you master Xuantian Gong, that flaw will be mitigated, and your potential will be tremendous."
"Really? My potential is tremendous?" Yan Zhi smiled faintly—she had never heard anyone praise her ugly martial soul before.
Xiao Yan nodded. "I can sense that your hands carry a scorching fire attribute. After using your martial soul, your hand strength seems to increase. These are excellent traits."
"You can tell all that just by looking?" Yan Zhi was amazed. Xiao Yan hadn't even touched her hands yet could uncover their secret.
Xiao Yan smiled. After all these years, his spiritual cultivation finally proved useful.
"The only weakness is your cultivation speed, which, as I said, will improve once you learn Xuantian Gong."
Seeing the yellow soul ring on her body, Xiao Yan was slightly surprised. For an ordinary girl to obtain a century-grade soul ring was remarkable—even more impressive than the son of the Notting City Lord.
Geography made a difference; Soto City far outshone Notting City.
Xiao Yan stepped back a few paces. "Use your first soul skill on me."
Understanding Xiao Yan's strength, Yan Zhi didn't hesitate. Her first soul ring flashed, her blood-red hands growing even more sinister as she projected a semi-human-sized skull towards him.
