"No need to look for them anymore, I'll lure the soul beasts here myself!"
Zhang Fan plucked a leaf from the celestial herb. Soul power surged in his hand."Clang clang..." In an instant, the leaf was ground into powder."Buzz..."
With a thought, the celestial herb powder swept out in all directions, releasing an incredibly rich immortal aura.
"Will that really work?"Flender walked over curiously and asked.
"Of course it works. That leaf emits a unique herbal scent that has a deadly allure to soul beasts.
And the concentration is strongest here, so it will attract many soul beasts!"Yellow-Haired Tang San said seriously.
"Oh!"Ma Hongjun stroked his long black beard and said.
Oscar combed his long chest hair and nodded.
Yu Xiaogang pinched his nose hair and nodded.
Dai Mubai rubbed his shiny bald head.
These five guys were just plain hilarious.
Zhang Fan nodded, agreeing with Tang San's explanation.
"Rustle rustle..." Soon, there was movement in the bushes. A majestic tiger leapt out from nearby.
Its whole body was jet black, over three meters long, with a white "king" symbol on its forehead. Incredibly agile.
Its speed was so fast it left afterimages as it pounced toward Zhang Fan, clearly attracted by the strongest scent he emitted.
"This black tiger is between three to five thousand years old—perfect for Zhu Zhuqing! No need for you all to act, I've got this!"
As Zhang Fan spoke, he raised his hand."Buzz..." A terrifying Heaven-Slaying Sword Intent condensed in his hand.
"Clang..." Suddenly, his sword finger pointed directly at the fast and powerful black tiger.
"Whoosh..." A transparent sword intent shot out from his finger.
"Puff..." Blood sprayed as the black tiger was instantly pierced through.
"Awooo..." It let out a dying wail and collapsed.
"Uhh..." Everyone was dumbfounded. They hadn't expected Zhang Fan to kill the tiger instantly without even releasing his soul rings or summoning his martial soul.
Just one sword finger, and it was done.
Tang San and the others stood there, stunned with mouths agape.
"Qing'er, go deliver the final blow to that ghost tiger and absorb its soul ring!"Zhang Fan reminded the dazed Zhu Zhuqing.
"Got it! Thanks, Brother Fan!"Zhu Zhuqing nodded in gratitude to Zhang Fan, then instantly appeared before the fallen tiger, finished it off, and began absorbing the soul ring.
"Buzz..." At that moment, Ning Rongrong also advanced to level 40.
She looked joyfully at Zhang Fan."Brother Fan, I've reached level 40!"
"Good, we'll help you get your fourth soul ring in a bit,"Zhang Fan said dotingly.
"Okay, thank you, Brother Fan."Ning Rongrong replied gratefully.
Zhu Zhuqing quickly finished absorbing her soul ring and reached level 41.
Then she stood up and came to Zhang Fan."Thank you, Brother Fan, for helping me!"
"No problem!"Zhang Fan shrugged.
"Nice. Let's see what soul beast comes next."
Flender felt that Zhang Fan's method was pretty effective."Rongrong's first three abilities boost speed, strength, and soul power. The fourth should focus on defense! That would be a better fit—something like a Qilin Armor Beast would be great. What do you think, Zhang Fan?"
"Mm, that works!"Zhang Fan nodded. That soul beast was indeed a great match for Ning Rongrong.
"Whoosh..."
Suddenly, a thousand-year-old Qilin Armor Beast appeared nearby, attracted by the herbal scent.
It charged straight at Zhang Fan.
The others didn't intervene—after all, Zhang Fan could easily slaughter even ten-thousand-year soul beasts, let alone a thousand-year one.
However, this Qilin Armor Beast had been lurking among ten-thousand-year beasts, indicating just how strong its defense was.
But even so, it was nothing in front of Zhang Fan.
With a single thought, the Mystic Heart Profound Art activated. The Heaven-Slaying Sword Intent flowed out from his sword finger.
The Mystic Heart Profound Art was the very foundation of his sword intent.
"Clang..."Zhang Fan pointed his sword again.
It looked slow, but struck with lightning speed."Clang..." Unlike before, this time he used the Mystic Heart Profound Art, and its power was beyond imagination.
Truly terrifying force.
"Bang..."
With a metallic crash, the armor of the Qilin Armor Beast was pierced instantly. The horrifying sword intent exploded within its body.
Zhang Fan one-shot the Qilin Armor Beast again.
Then he turned to look at Ning Rongrong, who stood wide-eyed at the scene before her.
"Brother Fan is freaking awesome!"
"Seriously, both badass and majestic!"Xiao Wu gave Zhang Fan a big thumbs-up.
"This..."
Tang San had thought Zhang Fan wouldn't be able to instantly kill the Qilin Armor Beast with just one sword finger—but to his surprise, it was done so effortlessly.
Flender and Liu Erlong were speechless too. Zhang Fan was just too monstrous.
Ning Rongrong went over and delivered the final blow to the Qilin Armor Beast.

Then, she began absorbing the soul ring.
She quickly completed the absorption.
Ning Rongrong rose to level 41.
Meanwhile, Tang San chose the Cavern Demon Spider as his fourth soul ring.
They approached the Cavern Demon Spider. It was about half the size of a Man-Faced Demon Spider, likely with ten-thousand-year cultivation. The silk it spewed was yellow.
"Teacher, I want to choose the ten-thousand-year Cavern Demon Spider!"Tang San said to Yu Xiaogang, whose long nose hairs swayed.
"What's your reason?"Yu Xiaogang was surprised.
"Because the Advanced Soul Master Tournament is about to start. Without a ten-thousand-year soul ring, I won't be able to defeat strong enemies!"
Tang San said seriously. After all, Zhang Fan had ten-thousand-year soul rings for every one of his. Meanwhile, he didn't have a single one—he was clearly not okay with that.
"Are you sure? This is extremely dangerous."Yu Xiaogang warned him seriously.
"It's fine. I'll take full responsibility for the consequences!"Tang San replied with conviction, his face resolute.
"Alright then."
Yu Xiaogang nodded helplessly. After all, he was basically a nobody now, and he was moved that Tang San still respected him so much.
"Whoosh..."Tang San, Dai Mubai, and Ma Hongjun charged forward.
Oscar handed them some sausages.
"Chicken Net Bind!"
The Blue Silver Chicken flew out:
"Cluck cluck..." it cried as it flung a web at the Cavern Demon Spider.
"Whoosh..." It actually managed to ensnare the Cavern Demon Spider.
Ma Hongjun and Dai Mubai charged in excitedly.
Of course, Zhang Fan wasn't about to let them take down a soul beast that easily.
Time to mess with them again.
Still quite satisfying.
"Ding, Triggered Plot Alteration Mission."
["Tiger Fist!" Dai Mubai fiercely punched at the Cavern Demon Spider.] Four words can be altered.
Zhang Fan grinned mischievously and replaced "Cavern Demon Spider" with "Tang San".
"Ding, Plot alteration successful. Gained 30 modification points."
"Tiger Fist!"Dai Mubai suddenly punched fiercely toward Tang San.
"Whoosh..."Dai Mubai's airborne fist twisted mid-air and smashed straight at Tang San, who had just finished casting his soul skill.
"Ahhh..."Tang San's eyes bulged."What the hell is wrong with Dai Mubai again?! How can he bend his punch like that and hit me?!"
He was completely speechless.
And he realized he couldn't dodge—his legs felt like they were filled with lead."Ah… Nooooo!"
