Chapter 52 – Zhu Zhuqing: I Can Win by Lying Down
"Hahaha, look at that! Their opponents actually think Zhu Zhuqing is Boss Ye's girlfriend. Damn, they'd make a perfect couple—talented, strong, and good-looking," Ma Hongjun laughed.
As soon as Ma Hongjun finished speaking, he felt a heavy gaze land on him.
Dai Mubai was staring at him, his expression dark.
Ma Hongjun blinked. "Wait... Boss Dai, don't tell me you—" He paused, then grinned slyly. "You got a thing for Zhu Zhuqing too?"
Dai Mubai didn't answer. He stayed silent. It wasn't about liking her—it was the fact that she was supposed to be his fiancée. And right now, she was fighting alongside Ye Feng, forming a duo that he was beginning to realize might be a damn mistake.

First Spirit Skill: Boiling Beast Blood
The Nine Heart Mysterious Tang in Ye Feng's hand emitted a deep red glow, shooting straight into Zhu Zhuqing's body.
Zhu Zhuqing's heartbeat quickened as she felt her spirit power surging through her veins, her energy increasing rapidly.
Boiling Beast Blood—a growth-type spirit skill. For every level Ye Feng's spirit power increased, his ally's speed and strength would rise by one percent. With Ye Feng sitting at level 49, that meant a 49% boost. The skill's range? A solid 40 meters around him.
Zhu Zhuqing's toes barely touched the ground before she shot forward, her movements feather-light as she covered seven meters in a single step. Her target? Yang Qingqing.

First Spirit Skill: Netherworld Stab
Her claws extended in an instant, her speed doubling as she launched a deadly strike.
First Spirit Skill: Crane Claw
At the same time, Yang Qingqing activated her own skill to counter.
Screech!
Their claws clashed mid-air, sending sparks flying. Neither one gave an inch. Despite being at spirit level 40+, Yang Qingqing found herself unable to gain the upper hand.
First Spirit Skill: Bird Step
Almost simultaneously, Liu Feng, Yang Qingqing's partner, activated his movement skill. The two attacked Zhu Zhuqing together, moving like two shadows in perfect sync.
Second Spirit Skill: Freeze
Right before Liu Feng's foot could land, his entire body was suddenly frozen in black ice.
Yang Qingqing was no exception.
Ye Feng had frozen both of them in an instant.
Second Spirit Skill: Netherworld Hundred Claws
Zhu Zhuqing's second spirit ring lit up, and her entire body rotated at an extreme speed. Her sharp claws struck the same point hundreds of times in a blink, tearing through the frozen Yang Qingqing. The force was so fierce that it shattered the ice and left deep wounds on Yang Qingqing's body.
Without hesitation, Zhu Zhuqing spun and unleashed the same attack on Liu Feng.
She then leaped back five meters and calmly said, "It's over."
But it wasn't.
Liu Feng and Yang Qingqing exchanged glances. Their expressions darkened with frustration. How the hell had they lost to a spirit master at level 27?! They had four rings, for fuck's sake!
Gritting their teeth, they refused to accept defeat.

Second Spirit Skill: A Crane Soaring into the Sky
Third Spirit Skill: Hummingbird Soaring
Liu Feng and Yang Qingqing activated their second and third skills simultaneously.
With a burst of spirit power, wings sprouted from their backs.
They suddenly switched targets.
Instead of attacking Zhu Zhuqing, they went straight for Ye Feng.
Their reasoning? Simple.
Zhu Zhuqing was only at level 27. The only reason she had lasted this long was because of Ye Feng's boosts and crowd control skills.
If they took out Ye Feng first, Zhu Zhuqing wouldn't stand a chance.
Zhu Zhuqing's eyes widened. "Shit."
By the time she reacted, Liu Feng and Yang Qingqing were already only seven meters away from Ye Feng.
But instead of panicking, Ye Feng smirked.
"Naïve."

Fourth Spirit Skill: Landslide and Earthshatter
Ye Feng's fourth spirit ring, glowing black, shone brightly.
The Nine Heart Mysterious Tang in his hand released a mix of red and yellow energy.
He stomped the ground.
CRACK!
Four massive lava-filled cracks spread out from where he stood, each more than ten meters long.
The cracks weren't real, but the illusion of molten rock made it look like the ground was splitting apart.
Then—
BOOM!
Lava erupted into the air, surging toward Liu Feng and Yang Qingqing.
Ye Feng's ten-thousand-year spirit ring skill wasn't something they could just shrug off.
The burning magma hit them mid-air, sending them flying.
Even worse, the lava clung to their bodies, sticking like a damn curse, making their movements sluggish.
"Shit!" Liu Feng gritted his teeth.
"Focus!" Yang Qingqing snapped.
The couple gathered their spirit power, forcing the lava away. Finally, they freed themselves.
But it was too late.
Ye Feng had already moved.
---
Liu Feng's eyes barely had time to widen.
Ye Feng was already in front of him.
"Are you really a support-type spirit master?!" Liu Feng blurted out.
Ye Feng didn't answer.
He just punched him.
---
BANG!
Liu Feng flew backward, crashing out of the ring.
Ye Feng landed lightly, his gaze shifting to Yang Qingqing.
She turned to check on her boyfriend.
Wrong move.
WHAM!
Ye Feng's fist slammed into her chest.
Soft.
Then firm.
Then—
BOOM!
The force sent her soaring out of the ring.
Blood sprayed mid-air as she landed hard on the ground outside the stage.
---
Silence.
The entire arena fell into complete silence.
Then, someone in the audience muttered, "Is this guy really a support-type spirit master?"
No one answered.
Because nobody fucking knew anymore.
Even Zhu Zhuqing was stunned.
She had assumed Ye Feng was strong, but she hadn't expected this.
The speed, the raw power, the sheer dominance…
With Ye Feng at her side, she hadn't even needed to try.
For the first time, she realized—
She could win by just lying down.
