Gu Feng spread his hands with a look of helplessness and said, "Brother Xue, if I told you that my Martial Soul is really the Bone Dragon, would you believe me?"
Xue Qinghe's lips curled into a playful smile as he retorted with a hint of amusement, "Do you think I would believe that?"
Seeing this, Gu Feng deliberately let out a heavy sigh, pretending to be at his wit's end, and said with a troubled expression, "Alright, since you've already seen through me, Brother Xue, there's no point in hiding it any longer. But you must promise me that you won't tell anyone about this. It's a secret of our Gu family!"
Hearing this, Xue Qinghe's heart skipped a beat. Had the moment finally come?
"Of course, don't worry. Who do you think I am, Xue Qinghe? Don't you know me well enough?"
No matter what, he would agree first.
As for what would happen afterward...
That was Xue Qinghe's promise. What did it have to do with her, Qian Renxue?
As soon as Gu Feng revealed his Martial Soul, she would have someone investigate it that very night.
Gu Feng cautiously leaned closer to Xue Qinghe's ear, lowered his voice, and said mysteriously, "Actually, this has a lot to do with the inheritance of our Gu family. My grandfather's Bone Dragon Spirit is male, while mine is female. That's why my Martial Soul is naturally stronger."
After hearing this, Xue Qinghe rolled his eyes, his face clearly expressing, "Do you think I'd believe that?"
But Gu Feng remained calm and continued, "Brother Xue, I know this sounds a bit unbelievable, but if you think about it carefully, aren't the most powerful Martial Souls in the Soul Master World mostly female? Look, the Angel Spirit of the Spirit Hall, isn't that female?"
As he spoke, he raised a finger to count.
"And if you look at the Soul Beast World, female Soul Beasts are usually larger and stronger than males. Our Bone Dragon Spirit lineage actually follows this same pattern."
Gu Feng raised another finger.
Listening to Gu Feng's explanation, Xue Qinghe couldn't help but rub his temples, his face filled with doubt as he asked, "Is that really true?"
"Of course it's true! Think about it. Since the Angel Spirit of the Spirit Hall is female, doesn't that prove the point? After all, the Angel Spirit is widely recognized as the strongest Martial Soul in the Soul Master World."
Gu Feng spoke with conviction, making his argument sound logical.
As Xue Qinghe listened, his brows gradually relaxed, and he began to ponder inwardly.
Hmm—
What he said actually made some sense.
Could it be that Martial Souls really have gender differences?
Seeing that Xue Qinghe's attitude was softening, Gu Feng knew his deception was working and quickly seized the opportunity to press further.
"Brother Xue, as far as I know, there's an island overseas called Sea God Island. The high priestess there is a woman, and I've heard that her strength even slightly surpasses that of the previous generation's peerless powerhouse, Qian Daoliu."
"The reason for this is precisely because she's female, and the advantages of her Martial Soul's gender are fully manifested."
At the mention of her grandfather, Qian Daoliu, Xue Qinghe's expression became complicated. She could only nod half-believingly and said, "Alright, I'll believe you this time."
She had already made up her mind to have Snake Spear Douluo find an opportunity to ask her grandfather about the truth of this matter later.
Seeing that he had successfully fooled her, Gu Feng secretly rejoiced in his heart.
Monkey King truly didn't deceive me!
After successfully sending Xue Qinghe away, Gu Feng hurriedly made his way toward another teaching building.
During this period, most students had gone to watch the selection matches of the Royal Fight Team, leaving the entire teaching building unusually quiet with only a few figures scattered around.
Gu Feng didn't have much trouble finding the class where Dugu Yan was.
Even before entering, he could hear the noisy sounds coming from inside, unsure whether it was a class in session or a heated discussion.
Gu Feng raised his hand and knocked on the classroom door.
After a short while, the door opened, revealing a short-haired girl with a pretty face.
The short-haired girl looked at the little boy Gu Feng and slightly furrowed her brows, asking, "Little brother, are you looking for someone in our Tianzhi Class 1?"
Gu Feng smiled gently and said politely, "Hello, pretty sister, I'm looking for Dugu Yan. Could you please call her for me?"
The short-haired girl was amused and reached out to pat Gu Feng's head, replying, "Little brother, you sure have a sweet mouth. Alright, I'll call her for you."
With that, she turned and walked into the classroom, shouting towards the back, "Yanzi, someone's looking for you."
At that moment, Dugu Yan was leaning against the wall, engrossed in a storybook she was holding. Her jade-like feet, tightly wrapped in black silk stockings, were resting on a nearby stool.
The stockings were of a fine and smooth texture, perfectly contouring the lines of her feet, accentuating the elegant arch of her instep. Her toes, constrained by the stockings, curled slightly and occasionally stretched, as if enjoying the lazy comfort.
She crossed her legs comfortably, her toes under the black silk stockings slightly bent, occasionally moving playfully. As she flipped through the pages of the storybook, her small feet swayed gently, relaxed and at ease.
Hearing the call, she reluctantly put down the storybook and responded, "Alright, I'm coming."
In an unnoticed corner, one could vaguely make out the title of the storybook—"The Overbearing Female Soul Emperor Teaches You How to Train Your Soul Master Junior."
Dugu Yan put on her shoes and walked towards the door.
When she saw Gu Feng, her purple eyes instantly lit up, and she quickened her pace, rushing towards him like a bird returning to its nest. She stretched out her arms and tightly embraced Gu Feng, chiding, "You naughty little brother, you finally decided to come back. Do you know how long I've been waiting for you?"
Wow!
Another foul with a body check!
Gu Feng's mind went blank, nearly suffocated by the sudden "enthusiasm."
His face buried in the softness, it took him a while to recover, only to be surprised to find that after absorbing her second Soul Ring, Dugu Yan's figure had undergone a dramatic transformation.
The fullness of her chest was even more striking, but what was even more captivating was her waist.
Dugu Yan's waist had become as slender as a nimble water snake, swaying gently with her embrace, exuding a unique charm.
Gu Feng struggled to free himself from Dugu Yan's embrace, tidying up his slightly disheveled clothes as he said, "Sister YanYan, didn't you say you were eager to go to the auction last time? I found out there's one today. Shall we go?"
Dugu Yan was momentarily stunned upon hearing this, then clapped her hands in sudden realization. "Oh, you actually remember that? I had almost completely forgotten about it. Alright, since there's nothing else to do, let's go join in the fun."
"Let's go!"
...
At the entrance of the Heaven Dou Royal Auction House.
"Have you heard? It's said that a treasure from across the sea is going to be auctioned today..."
"Of course, I've already prepared my Gold Soul Coins. Hehe, I hope I can snag it today."
"Hmph, keep dreaming. That thing is definitely going to be mine."
