Shui Bing'er looked at her sister's infatuated expression, pressing her hand to her forehead, unsure of what to say.
The personage in question was so strong that, barring any accidents, he must certainly be a centenarian elder. How could it be as simple as her sister imagined?
However, she didn't say much more. Girls at this age loved to indulge in wild thoughts. Having heard many stories of the Prince Charming, it was only natural for them to project themselves into similar fantasies upon encountering some events.
Thinking thus, Shui Bing'er forgot that she herself was still a young girl. In the Tian Shui Battle Team, she was one of the younger members, but due to her outstanding abilities, she ranked first among the seven girls.
Over the years, Shui Bing'er was used to playing the role of the big sister in the Tian Shui Battle Team, taking charge of everything. She even had to consider the physiological issues of the girls during training. For one girl, it was three to four days; for seven girls, there was almost a smell of blood in the air every day of the month. It was precisely because she, as the captain, had more responsibilities that she had to be much more mature than other girls her age.
It took several minutes for the terrifying natural phenomenon to slowly dissipate.
Seeing the aura vanish, the girls couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. After all, that constant oppressive sensation was truly unbearable. Although the Soul Pressure was not aimed at them specifically, it still filled them with an indescribable fear.
"Alright. Let's set off. Everyone, mind your behavior and do not disturb that personage," Shui Miao said from the front, still looking with trepidation at the place the terrifying aura had emanated from. The being there was not someone they could afford to provoke.
If they truly angered that personage, the combined strength of all in Tianshui College wouldn't be enough to withstand his wrath.
"Yes," the girls replied in unison, their delicate voices chiming together. Even if Shui Miao hadn't mentioned it, they wouldn't dare to make any presumptuous moves.
"Oh no, Yue'er is missing," suddenly exclaimed a girl with long fiery red hair.
"Yue'er is simply being reckless, daring to disturb the elder."
"Qi Yatou has gone mad."
The girls exclaimed in surprise, naturally seeing Shui Yue'er heading in Xu Ran's direction.
"Dean, I must leave the team. I'm going to call Yue'er back," Shui Bing'er said anxiously upon seeing this. Before Shui Miao could respond, she had already rushed off.
Shui Yue'er was her sister. Should anything happen to her, as the elder sister, she couldn't stay calm.
"Bing'er, come back..." Shui Miao's expression changed slightly as she tried to call Shui Bing'er back, but she stopped with her hand still raised. She knew Bing'er's character well; once she had made a decision, she wouldn't change it easily.
Moreover, now that Yue'er was already gone, as the dean of Tianshui College, she certainly couldn't just abandon Shui Yue'er.
"Dean, we..." The Tian Shui Battle Team had been training together for many years, developing deep ties. They had even said that if they ever married, they would marry only one person, never parting as sisters. Although it was said in jest, it was enough to show the depth of their emotions for one another.
Now that both Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er were walking into danger, they couldn't just stand by and watch. That wasn't their style.
"Forget it, let's go together."
"That personage probably won't care about us."
Shui Miao hesitated for a moment but still made the decision resolutely.
Those strong enough to reach the level of Titled Douluo often had peculiar temperaments, among which there was no lack of those of an evil nature. Because the Tianshui College was full of young girls, she was hesitant.
But the situation being as it was, there was no other choice. If Yue'er and Bing'er offended that being, they wouldn't be able to escape either. In that case, it was better for them to meet the elder straightforwardly.
Shui Miao led the girls in pursuit of Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er.
They enveloped their bodies with Soul Power, and despite running quickly, the noise they made was minimal.
...
"How terrifying," the members of Tianshui College couldn't help but be shocked by the scene as they approached the area where the anomaly had just occurred.
On the level ground, there was a fearsome trench nearly a kilometer long and tens of meters deep, looking like a giant gash on the earth itself, fierce beyond measure.
Clearly, it was left by that esteemed individual.
This was too terrifying.
Could the ground really be sliced open this long by a human being?
If it were before, they would have never believed it. Their talents were not bad, but for most of them, to break through to Soul Douluo was already quite an achievement. Only Shui Bing'er and Xue Wu had the talent to have a chance of becoming Titled Douluo. In their understanding, a Soul Master, no matter how strong, could hardly reach this degree.
Such destructive power, that esteemed one could probably easily destroy a large city.
"Don't speak, follow behind me," Shui Miao's expression became more reverent, realizing that this esteemed one with the Sword Martial Spirit was much more terrifying than she had imagined.
And she could see that the terrifying trench on the ground was made by a single sword strike from that esteemed one. Such fearsome might from one sword. This esteemed one's strength surpassed Sword Douluo by far.
He was either a peerless fighter of level 99 or had surpassed the limits of Titled Douluo.
They followed the long tear in the ground until, at the end of the trench, they came across a very young man in a black robe, holding a pitch-black long sword, lying on the ground.
His brows were tightly furrowed, as if enduring some pain.
Seeing this scene, including Shui Miao, all the people from Tianshui College were unsettled. They had imagined the appearance of that supreme esteemed one countless times in their minds, but they did not expect the esteemed one to be such a young man.
The youthful face even looked younger than theirs.
The handsome and carefree features, coupled with the previous overbearing and terrifying aura, mixed together, giving the lying Xu Ran a unique charm.
For an excessively young peerless powerhouse, no girl could keep from being moved.
"So this is what he looks like?" Shui Yue'er, walking at the front, couldn't help but speak excitedly. After saying this, a blush appeared on her pretty face. But she still looked straightforward, not hiding her interest in the young man in front of her at all, her large eyes staring straight at him.
"Principal, what should we do now?" Shui Bing'er asked. It seemed that the esteemed one had been injured and had passed out.
"Let's bring him back to the college for rehabilitation," Shui Miao said directly. She knew that those powerful esteemed ones could maintain their youthful states, so she wouldn't underestimate Xu Ran because of his youth.
[School practical training, one week, every day from eight to six, I can't help it. Wuu wuu wuu. But I'll try to ensure three updates; however, the schedule might not be as regular as before. Mwah]
