"No, I'm going to find Little black," Xiao Wu said seriously, talking nonsense.

Dai Mubai's eyes immediately lit up. "You know where the Third Brother is?"

Xiao Wu nodded and said with a serious expression, "On the day before the final competition started, he predicted there might be danger, so he arranged with me in advance that he would wait for us near Spirit City."

Dai Mubai said excitedly, "Haha, great! Fatty, now we can finally go out and train with Third Brother. With Haotian Douluo's guidance, I believe our strength will improve by leaps and bounds in no time."

Ma Hongjun hesitated. After all, it was obvious to anyone that Tang San and Ning Tian were at odds. Now that Ning Tian no longer cared about his earlier transgression, if he still chose to side with Tang San, wouldn't that mean in the future…

Thinking of this, Ma Hongjun subconsciously wanted to refuse.

However, Flanders' next words directly pushed him into the abyss. "Go, Hongjun. Your evil fire problem can never be solved if you stay at the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy. If Haotian Douluo is there, there might be hope."

Ma Hongjun nodded, a smile appearing on his face. "It's a pity that Little Ao isn't here. Otherwise, with his sausages, we wouldn't have to worry about cooking."

Dai Mubai joked, "Now that he's joined the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, who knows how happy he is. Maybe, with constant proximity, he can even win over that girl Ning Rongrong."

"Probably not possible. I think Ning Rongrong likes Ning Tian," Ma Hongjun said incredulously.

Dai Mubai curled his lips. "Why not? Don't you understand the saying 'the pavilion closest to the water enjoys the moonlight first'? As for that Ning Tian, whether he can survive or not is still a question."

Ma Hongjun chuckled, clicking his tongue. "Tsk tsk, it's really karma. He took your fiance before, Boss Dai, and now it's his turn to have his woman taken away."

Xiao Wu listened to their conversation, a cold light flashing in her eyes. Originally, Ning Tian had only asked her to bring Dai Mubai over, but since this fatty Ma Hongjun had decided to stand on Tang San's side and continued to badmouth Ning Tian behind his back without changing his ways, he deserved this.

…..

On the other side, as soon as Ning Tian and the other three left Spirit City, they parted ways with Mona and the others. They headed in another direction, but before they had gone two miles, three figures appeared in front of them.

Among these three, Ning Tian recognized one, it was none other than the team leader teacher of the Star Luo Royal Academy, Durant. The other two were also wearing the teacher uniforms of the Star Luo Royal Academy. They were clearly sent by the Star Luo Empire to capture him and Zhu Zhuqing, and both had the cultivation of Spirit Saints.

As soon as these two appeared, they stared coldly at Ning Tian and Zhu Zhuqing without saying a word, but they had obviously locked onto Ning Tian with their mental power, seeming ready to make a move at any time.

"Miss Zhuqing, you should come back with us to the Star Luo Empire. For your sake, we can let the others go. But this kid is someone the eldest prince has named to capture, so he must stay," Durant said to Zhu Zhuqing expressionlessly, with a commanding tone in his voice.

And the "kid" he referred to was naturally Ning Tian.

Ning Tian was first stunned, then a trace of anger flashed in his eyes. "Why only capture us and not Dai Mubai?"

"Don't worry, he won't escape either. After we capture you two, it will be his turn," said a teacher from the Star Luo Royal Academy standing beside Durant.

The other one added, "You can only blame your bad luck. If you had chosen to go with the people from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, we really couldn't do anything to you."

Learning that there were only three of them, Ning Tian suddenly curled his lips and looked sideways at Zhu Zhuqing. "Zhuqing, there shouldn't be any of your relatives among these three, right?"

"No," Zhu Zhuqing shook her head, looking at Durant and the other two as if they were dead men.

Hearing this, how could the three of them not know that Ning Tian had been trying to get information from them?

But it was too late. Eight spider legs extended from his back, and the sword domain was activated. Ning Tian took the initiative to attack. He suddenly raised his right hand, and four green lights shot silently towards Durant. At the same time, he flipped his left hand, and a huge gold and silver colored metal ball appeared in his hand.

As soon as Durant saw Ning Tian make a move, he immediately released his martial soul. Two yellow, two purple, and three black; seven soul rings spiraled out, and he instantly transformed into a gray wolf.

"Be careful, he has twin martial souls," the person on Durant's left saw the two-colored iron ball in Ning Tian's hand, was startled, and quickly warned.

Durant was slightly stunned upon hearing this, but before he could react, the first and third soul rings on Ning Tian lit up. The four green lights that shot out made a soft humming sound, and after a blur, they transformed into sixteen identical sword lights. Twelve of them turned into twelve huge green light swords that slashed fiercely at Durant, who had already possessed his martial soul, while the other four changed direction, drawing arcs and shooting rapidly from the side.

With Durant taking action, the other two naturally wouldn't stand by. After the person on the left warned them, both hurriedly released their martial souls. The one on the left had the Vajra Tiger martial soul, and the one on the right had a Fire Lion martial soul. Their soul ring configurations were slightly inferior to Durant's, with two yellow, three purple, and two black rings. Seeing that Ning Tian was not to be trifled with, they both activated their martial soul true bodies at the same time.

But Ning Tian, facing them, turned a blind eye to all this. The two-colored metal ball in his hand shook rapidly a few times, then split into two and smashed towards them. Seeing that Ning Tian didn't take their activation of martial soul true bodies seriously, the two were furious and prepared to pounce on him. They planned to strangle him first, then kill the others, and finally take Zhu Zhuqing back.

But just as they shattered the two-colored metal ball, the broken metal ball turned into a sky full of two-colored beetles that surged out overwhelmingly. In the blink of an eye, they were submerged in the sea of insects. 

They immediately felt their soul power dispersing, being devoured. At this moment, the two could no longer maintain their previous composure, their faces filled with extreme horror.

They had originally thought that the second martial soul that suddenly appeared in Ning Tian's hand, without any soul rings attached, wouldn't have much power. But it turned out to be a massive swarm of insects capable of devouring soul power and even ignoring flames, completely beyond their expectations.
