Without a doubt, Princess Jinrou was the focus of all the men in the hall. Wherever she went, she was surrounded by her devoted admirers and guardians.

Princess Jinrou had already noticed Chu Mu’s presence, but initially, she didn’t know it was Chu Mu. She only thought of the alias Chu Chen he used in the Wogu Domain before, and after a thorough observation, she confirmed that this easily overlooked young man was Chu Mu.

Since Chu Mu did not take the initiative to greet her, Princess Jinrou naturally wouldn’t go up to him without any reason. So she just looked at him a few more times, remembered Chu Mu’s new appearance, and continued to politely deal with those eager young men.

…

“Chu Mu, it’s Shen Yicheng.” Ye Qingzi gently nudged Chu Mu’s arm and whispered to him.

The appearance of Shen Yicheng made Ye Qingzi tremble a little, making it clear she still had some fear towards this man, especially meeting him in such a setting.

“Hold my arm.” Chu Mu told her.

Ye Qingzi blinked and quickly understood Chu Mu’s meaning, hesitantly reaching out her soft and fair arm and leaning it against Chu Mu’s.

Shen Yicheng walked alone toward Chu Mu, his expression indifferent. Perhaps for Shen Yicheng, the enmity between him and Chu Chen was irreconcilable, but at such an occasion, he could not let anyone else think of him as an unsettled avenger who ran purposely to the man who scarred him just to rant meaninglessly.

“If you can’t reach the Eighth Realm, I will be very disappointed.” Shen Yicheng looked at Ye Qingzi first, then spoke to Chu Mu.

“Is your soul restored?” Chu Mu looked at Shen Yicheng with interest, speaking provocatively.

“You don’t need to worry about it.” Shen Yicheng replied coldly. After finishing speaking, Shen Yicheng’s gaze fell on Ye Qingzi again, tauntingly saying, “Qingzi, are you seeking refuge with a power or with a man? If it’s the latter, at least choose someone truly worth seeking refuge with.”

“You don’t need to worry about it.” Ye Qingzi cleverly used what Shen Yicheng had just said to answer him.

A flash of anger appeared in Shen Yicheng’s eyes, and after a cold snort, he turned and walked away.

Shen Yicheng’s inner flame was already burning with anger. He was originally considered the strongest among the second-tier participants. In such a situation, countless young generation members would want to get acquainted and please him, and numerous beautiful women would hint at him with their eyes.

Nevertheless, after that storm, his reputation plummeted, which could be easily felt by the attitude of people around him.

Shen Yicheng was also a man who could keep calm under pressure. He would not lose his reason because of this completely different treatment, but the feeling of being looked down upon by those who once sought his favor was truly infuriating. Thus, Shen Yicheng vowed that during the World Decree, he would make those who deliberately mocked and despised him today regret it!

…

Chu Mu only symbolically walked around the hall for a few laps before leaving with Ye Qingzi.

Both Chu Mu and Ye Qingzi were not fond of such occasions because they had hardly participated in any social activities during their growth from childhood to adulthood. Their fervor was entirely focused on their own affairs. For them, it would be difficult to make friends with everyone. Instead, they only wanted to be friends with those they truly recognized.

“Shall we walk around in the forest?” Chu Mu turned his head and asked Ye Qingzi, who was still holding his arm.

After Shen Yicheng left, Ye Qingzi had just instinctively continued holding Chu Mu’s arm. When Chu Mu asked this question, she suddenly realized her actions were improper and quietly let go of his hand.

“Okay.” Ye Qingzi nodded and followed Chu Mu.

Stepping on the soft fallen leaves on the ground, strolling through the slightly dim forest, the two, not fond of talking, kept walking forward in silence.

They didn’t find silence uncomfortable and were familiar with the feeling, just like long-time lovers, each accustomed to the other’s company.

“Why did you go through all that trouble to escape only to come back here to compete for the second-tier glory?” After a long time, Chu Mu broke the silence, looking into Ye Qingzi’s eyes and asking.

Ye Qingzi’s eyes were beautiful, and Chu Mu loved to gaze into them. They were intelligent, quiet, and always seemed to see through the essence of things with their wise radiance.

“Among the rewards for the ultimate glory of the second tier, there is a spirit item that seems capable of directly enhancing the combat power level of any attribute soul pet. In fact, a trace of my teacher’s lingering thoughts is inside that spirit item. That is her last wish and also…” Ye Qingzi paused here but didn’t continue.

Looking at Ye Qingzi, Chu Mu could sense from her expression that her unwillingness to continue was not because she didn’t trust him but rather her reluctance to reveal her secret to others…

“Chu Mu… My brother and I will help you win the second-tier title, and everything will be yours. We just want that spirit item. Is that okay?” Ye Qingzi lowered her head and whispered to Chu Mu.

“You’ve always been in control of the temperature of my soul. My life is literally in your hands. How can I not agree to your request?” Chu Mu smiled freely.

“You’re not serious.” Ye Qingzi looked at Chu Mu with a mischievous smile, her cheeks flushed pink, and her beautiful eyes showed a hint of charm.

The unintentional display of Ye Qingzi’s beauty and allure stirred a ripple in Chu Mu’s heart. It felt like there was a voice inside him telling him to wrap his arms around the enchanting and alluring woman before him, bring his face closer to her delicate features, and press his lips against her cool yet fiery ones.

With a unique magical power, this voice made Chu Mu’s body involuntarily sway. There was another voice, however, constantly telling him that if he did that, she might feel resistance and discomfort, or perhaps it was too fast…

Chu Mu was well aware of what he wanted for himself and did not like to force anything.

Chu Mu deliberately glanced at Ye Qingzi again and found that her head was slightly lowered, clearly preoccupied.

“It’s better to do something for her in order to obtain that spirit item first,” Chu Mu rationally retracted his half-raised arm and continued to stroll through the small forest with Ye Qingzi.

…

Ye Qingzi indeed had something on her mind, but at the same time, she noticed Chu Mu’s half-raised hand.

Ye Qingzi had an aura of repelling others from thousands of miles away, which could resist all external vanity and any man who had affection for her.

But in reality, she had never been in close contact with a man. Chu Mu was, in fact, the closest one she had ever been with. When she noticed Chu Mu’s movement, she became very nervous…

Ye Qingzi did not deny her fondness for Chu Mu, but in her view of feelings, fondness alone was far from enough. Just as Shen Yicheng had previously said, she could not possibly fall in love with a man in such a short period of time. Due to her personality, she was destined to use time to test someone she truly wanted to be with.

Chu Mu eventually withdrew his hand with reason, which Ye Qingzi took as a sign of respect. After all, she disliked impulsive feelings based on mere fondness. She was well aware of what she wanted: someone to spend her life with, and she hoped that person would be Chu Mu…

…

…

The start of the World Decree had the entire World City in an uproarious state.

All the participants eagerly awaited the announcement of the first realm from the organizers. They were like racers ready to race from the starting line, and once the organizers give the order, they would rush towards the finish line like arrows.’

All the participants’ numbers were shuffled by the race organizers and then divided into different realms. This process was supervised by respected individuals from the major powers, so there was almost no possibility of favoritism or fraud. After all, the relationship between the major powers was not that harmonious.

Ting Lan had previously told Chu Mu that he had been included in the ranks of the Guardians. This meant that Chu Mu’s task within a certain realm was to guard it.

Of course, with the major powers’ estimation of Chu Mu’s strength, they wouldn’t place a second-tier powerhouse like him in the first realm, which would completely leave no chance for others to compete for glory in the third-tier.

Chu Mu, Ye Qingzi, and Ye Wansheng went together to the World City Hall, where they learned about their respective first realm tasks from the appropriate race members.

The three had different tasks, but they were not far apart. Ye Qingzi had to defeat any three opponents, and Ye Wansheng had to challenge a powerhouse.

Chu Mu, on the other hand, was assigned to the Soul Pet Palace, where he was required to defeat all the soul pets released in the Beast Fighting Arena.

The Soul Pet Palace had raised many mature soul pets; these soul pets had been captured by many hunting experts and kept in captivity by the Soul Pet Palace for soul pet trainers to practice in battle extensively.

Beast fighting was one of the most popular competitive and challenging arenas in the soul pet world. Chu Mu enjoyed the realism of outdoor beast fighting and hardly ever participated in the Soul Pet Palace’s beast fighting competitions.

Beast fighting competitions offered high rewards, comparable to many seasonal and annual competitions. Moreover, due to the authenticity of the battles, many people enjoyed watching beast fighting. In the Soul Pet Palace, beast fighting was a competitive atmosphere and a place where the strong should truly stand.

“Soul Hall–Chu Chen, you can go to the beast fighting arena when you’re ready, and you can choose a difficulty.” The race staff said.

Chu Mu nodded. Earlier, Ting Lan had mentioned this to him.

During the breakthrough, judges would grade the difficulty and quality of the participants, with Servant Level, Warrior Level, Commander Level, Monarch Level, and Emperor Level. After a comprehensive evaluation, the World Ranking would be displayed in the most prominent position in the World Hall, and those who ranked high would be rewarded.
