(Note: The original novel describes Qian Renxue's soul skills very little; this is supplemented with a personal setting.)
"Fight me?"
Ye Qiu pointed at himself, looking at him in surprise, not understanding why he would have this idea.
"That's right!" Xue Qinghe turned around and looked at Ye Qiu. "I also want to see how strong the genius that Teacher mentioned really is!"
"I'd rather not,"
Ye Qiu shook his head. He knew his soul skills were not suitable for sparring.
"Hmph! You must fight me today! This is also to prepare for our future cultivation of martial soul fusion techniques."
Xue Qinghe snorted coldly, not giving Ye Qiu a chance to refuse.
After saying this, he ignored Ye Qiu and ran quickly into the dense forest.
"I'll wait for you inside!"
A voice drifted out from the dense forest, and Xue Qinghe had already disappeared.
"Kid! You'd better hurry up and go. At most, you'll only get a beating, hehe!"
The Porcupine Douluo next to him saw Ye Qiu still standing there and urged him, speaking with some schadenfreude.
"Hehe~" Ye Qiu rolled his eyes helplessly. He was just afraid of hurting him.
But since he had agreed to cultivate the Martial Soul Fusion Technique together, he should indeed cooperate!
Whoosh!
After a moment's thought, Ye Qiu ran inside.
"Snake Spear, how long do you think that kid can hold out?"
"Hard to say, let's keep a close watch! Miss's status cannot be compromised!"
Snake Spear shook his head. He dared not make any predictions about such an extraordinary prodigy.
In the dense forest.
Sunlight shining through the intertwined branches and leaves resembled shimmering golden dragon scales.
Ye Qiu strolled through it and quickly found the trail!
In a clearing that seemed to have been deliberately cleared, stood a golden figure.
Long golden hair and a long golden dress; even from behind, one could feel majesty and holiness!
"Very good! I'm glad you came!"
Sensing Ye Qiu's approach, a clear, melodious voice, as beautiful as a gentle spring, rang out, soothing yet carrying a sense of superior pressure.
"Is this your true self?"
Ye Qiu stood behind her, surprised that Qian Renxue would so readily reveal her disguise.
"Indeed!"
Her voice was like a nightingale's song, clear and bright.
Qian Renxue slowly turned around, her body slightly turned to the side, a faint smile on her delicate face.
"Let me formally introduce myself. My name is Qian Renxue!"
As she turned, the surrounding leaves seemed to rustle, beckoning and swaying towards her.
Ye Qiu was momentarily stunned; no wonder she was a woman who could captivate the entire Star Dou Great Forest! She
looked to be eighteen or nineteen years old, with skin as white as snow, slender, majestic golden phoenix eyes, a prominent nose, and a graceful, elegant figure.
She wore a one-piece golden palace dress, without excessive embellishments, its clean and crisp design and flowing curves unable to conceal her stunning figure.
A golden stand-up collar concealed her snow-white swan neck, her long golden hair casually draped, attracting the occasional breeze blowing through the forest.
Her beauty surpassed all ages, even the bright moon was ashamed of her jade-like face;
praised by all the gods, her elegance was as pure as frost and snow!
"What? Surprised?"
Qian Renxue was satisfied with Ye Qiu's reaction, a hint of smugness appearing on her face.
Then she frowned, gritting her teeth.
"What do you mean by shaking your head!?"
"Hehe." Ye Qiu chuckled lightly, extending his hand and pinching his index finger and thumb together.
"It's not exactly surprising, just a tiny bit stunning!"
"A tiny bit?"
Seeing Ye Qiu's stubbornness, Qian Renxue's face turned cold, then she laughed in exasperation.
"Hehehe."
Her smile grew even colder, failing to achieve the effect she had envisioned, and she became somewhat embarrassed and angry.
She had spent a long time trying on clothes in the secret chamber before finally choosing a satisfactory one!
"Ha!" Gritting her teeth, she wiped away her smile, letting out a disdainful snort, her heart burning with rage.
A tiny bit? Stand her up for a woman? Disgusting!
This time, she'll settle all these old and new scores!
"You should be ready by now!"
Qian Renxue's cold voice rang out as she assumed a fighting stance facing Ye Qiu.
Five spirit rings—yellow, purple, and black—appeared
beneath her feet. Three pairs of golden wings slowly unfurled behind her, and an angelic phantom appeared, enveloped in blazing golden flames.
"Yes! I'm ready!"
Ye Qiu didn't dare to be careless either, his Sharingan already appearing in his eyes.
"Where are your spirit rings?" Qian Renxue frowned. Although she had already confirmed it with Snake Spear and Porcupine, she still wanted to see it with her own eyes.
Ye Qiu raised an eyebrow and released his two yellow spirit rings.
"..." Seeing this, Qian Renxue felt a surge of doubt.
Why go through all that trouble and make that condition when she could clearly conceal the age of her spirit rings?
"What's wrong?" Noticing the strangeness in her eyes, Ye Qiu asked.
"Nothing!"
Shaking her head, temporarily clearing her mind, Qian Renxue's voice suddenly became low.
"Let's...begin!"
"Hmm! So fast!"
Just as Ye Qiu agreed, his pupils suddenly contracted!
Under his three-tomoe Sharingan, Qian Renxue's figure, leaving afterimages, attacked Ye Qiu.
"First Soul Skill, Angel Assault!"
The first soul ring under her feet lit up rapidly.
Golden light suddenly condensed on Qian Renxue's body into her hand, and she raised her delicate fist and punched towards Ye Qiu!
Perfectly demonstrating what it means to be still as a virgin and move like thunder!
There was no time to hesitate, purple suddenly appeared in Ye Qiu's blood-red eyes, and he had already activated the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan.
Qian Renxue's movements were all seen!
"Mysterious Jade Hand!"
Ye Qiu also raised his wrist and lowered his knee, adding an extra layer of soul power to his hand as a precaution, before clashing with her.
"Hmph!" Qian Renxue snorted coldly, her movements as swift and relentless as a storm.
Bang bang bang!
After several clashes, a figure was sent flying backward.
Her legs carved long trenches in the ground.
Ye Qiu's hands trembled slightly, his eyes fixed on Qian Renxue, who continued to approach him.
As expected of a divine-level martial soul, her first soul skill, though melee-type, formed a golden shield with each punch, making it both offensive and defensive!
Ye Qiu tried to counterattack several times using the Sharingan's perception ability, but was blocked each time.
"Hehe... Again!"
Qian Renxue shouted, already charging in front of Ye Qiu, her delicate fist aimed straight at his face.
The moment the divine aura on her fist touched Ye Qiu, the slight smile that had appeared on Qian Renxue's lips suddenly froze on her face.
The golden fist struck nothing but air, missing its mark and nearly causing her to stumble and fall.
Her body missed Ye Qiu, her eyes momentarily glazed over.
Ye Qiu wasn't about to be foolish enough to engage again.
He had already sensed that Qian Renxue's divine power possessed the ability to dissolve and suppress an opponent's soul power.
His Xuan Yu Hand had almost collapsed from its strain, and his soul power had also been drained.
After using his divine might to penetrate her, Qian Renxue's back was now wide open.
Ye Qiu seized the opportunity, and before she could regain her footing, he imbued his hand with another layer of Xuan Yu color and struck her back.
"Heh," Qian Renxue, having just passed through Ye Qiu and regained her senses, sensed the attack from behind and smiled calmly.
Her second soul ring glowed slightly, a faint halo enveloped her body, and her figure became ethereal.
"What's going on!" Ye Qiu stared in astonishment as his fist pierced through Qian Renxue's body.
Unable to stop its momentum, its body continued to rush forward, the hot wind brushing against its face, directly piercing through the thousand-foot snow.

At this moment, Ye Qiu seemed to see his own divine power!
In just an instant, the situation reversed, and the roles of offense and defense were reversed! Qian Renxue sneered .
Although the soul power attached to Ye Qiu's hand had caused her some pain, her movements were not slow at all. She imitated Ye Qiu, using her first soul skill to blast Ye Qiu's back! This time, Qian Renxue did not hold back. With a punch, the divine energy on her fist transformed into a thick golden streak, directly attacking Ye Qiu. Bang! The golden streak pierced through Ye Qiu, striking the surrounding trees and causing several explosions. Several large trees were almost cut in half! This was the true Angelic Assault! "Did you dodge again?" Seeing that Ye Qiu was still unharmed, Qian Renxue was about to finish him off, her speed much faster than before! "Hey~ you're serious!" Seeing that she was pressing her advantage, Ye Qiu quickly reacted, fighting and retreating. After a brief moment of surprise, he immediately stretched out his hand, where three walnut-sized balls of soul power had condensed. In an instant, they spun and compressed, transforming into marbles. His self-created soul skill, Rasengan! He didn't have much soul power right now, so he could only play with the compressed version for now. With a powerful swing, the three balls shot towards the oncoming Qian Renxue. At the same time, Ye Qiu used Ghost Shadow Steps to quickly create distance between himself and Qian Renxue. The Rasengan created ripples in the air, almost sweeping away Qian Renxue's golden hair. She could feel the power contained within—definitely not weak! The fourth purple soul ring beneath his feet flickered slightly, and his voice was filled with piety! "Fourth Soul Skill, Angel's Protection!" (Original setting) His six wings flapped behind him, and a golden, transparent, all-around shield appeared around Qian Renxue. Her previously tense face relaxed, and the slight damage she had just suffered had completely healed. Her Angel's Protection, although somewhat costly, was well worth it! Not only can it increase one's defense by 200%, but each use also purifies oneself with divine power, dispelling negative status effects and providing some healing! Afterwards, the soul power required for each of the first three soul skills is reduced by 50%, lasting for half an hour! * Thump thump thump!* Due to the rotation, the three Rasengan collided with the shield, deviating from their original trajectories! *Whoosh! Bang!* The three Rasengan flew into the forest, creating craters the size of a bowl and the depth of a forearm in the trees. "Are these your self-created soul skills?" Qian Renxue stood in place, watching the destruction caused by Ye Qiu with interest. However, she didn't hear Ye Qiu's reply for a long time. Turning her head, she found him looking at her strangely. Qian Renxue tilted her head slightly, revealing a slight smile. "Hehe. Is it strange that your attack can penetrate me?" "Indeed, I'm very curious!" Ye Qiu nodded. "This is my second soul skill! It's called Void Wings (from the comics). It puts me into a void state, making me immune to physical attacks and 50% of energy attacks, and increasing my speed by 20% for the next minute!" Qian Renxue explained her soul skill clearly with a faint smile. 'No wonder she still looked a little pale even though my attack passed through her. So she can't completely resist energy attacks?' Ye Qiu thought to himself, then looked at her curiously, because Qian Renxue's voice hadn't stopped. Like spilling beans, she explained her other four soul skills to Ye Qiu clearly. "Why are you telling me all this?" "Hmph! I just want to make this competition a little fairer!" Qian Renxue's smile faded, and she looked intently at Ye Qiu. If before it was just to teach Ye Qiu a lesson, now her mindset had changed! In the previous exchange, she hadn't planned to use the last three soul skills, but Ye Qiu's performance made her realize that perhaps at the same level, she wouldn't be Ye Qiu's match! "Just now, besides using a soul skill similar to Void Wings, you didn't seem to use anything else. So I'll take this seriously!" As soon as she finished speaking, the only black soul ring beneath her feet flashed, and the faint golden flames burning on Qian Renxue's body quickly condensed into a sacred sword! Formed from sacred fire, it could be used as a sword or a hand strike, flexible in use, with formidable attack power. Most importantly, it could increase the purification effect of angelic soul power by three hundred percent! An ordinary soul master would inevitably suffer cuts and bruises from a single blow, losing eight or nine tenths of their soul power! *Whoosh! * Qian Renxue raised the sword, performing a beautiful sword flourish, her expression serious, the tip pointing at Ye Qiu's brow. "..." Ye Qiu looked at the radiant Qian Renxue, a bitter feeling welling up inside him. "Hoo~" He closed his eyes, letting out a soft breath. It had been a long time since he had fought seriously. Although he still couldn't go all out this time, he wanted to witness the power of a six-winged angel! When her eyes opened again, the eerie blood-red light within them shone even more brightly, concealing purple flower stamens! "Since that's the case, then let's begin!" * Whoosh!* Just as Ye Qiu finished preparing, Qian Renxue unleashed several slashes, golden sword energy sweeping towards him. *Pop!* The sword energy sliced through Ye Qiu's body as easily as through air, without the slightest obstruction. Wherever it passed, the ground turned scorched, much of it evaporated. Ye Qiu didn't pause, closing in on Qian Renxue. At close range, he could effectively suppress the swings of her longsword! "Haha...this kid actually made Miss take things seriously, truly a prodigy!" Above the dense forest surrounding the clearing, Citun and Snake Spear stood atop trees on either side, facing each other, wary of any movement behind them, while constantly observing the battle between Qian Renxue and Ye Qiu. Hearing Citun's telepathic message, Snake Spear nodded in agreement. "Just watch closely, I have a feeling this kid will surprise us again!" The open space was riddled with sword marks and craters, and the surrounding trees had all fallen. After slashing through Ye Qiu's body once more, Qian Renxue lightly touched the ground with her toes, flapped her six wings, and floated backward as lightly as a swallow.
"Ye Qiu! Are you ever going to stop?!"
Qian Renxue gritted her teeth. She had tried to cut Ye Qiu countless times, but he was like an eel, impossible to catch!
Ye Qiu wasn't in good shape either. Standing not far from her, his sleeves were charred, a result of being grazed by the Holy Sword, which had dissipated half of his soul power.
A six-winged angel, terrifying indeed!
"Heh." Faced with this situation, Ye Qiu could only smile bitterly. He couldn't break her attack without going all out!
He had no choice but to use Kamui, Rasengan, and illusions to deal with her. Although her mental strength was stronger than Ye Qiu's, it still had some effect.
"Hmph! Since you like intangibility so much! Then keep it up!"
Qian Renxue stiffened her neck and snorted coldly.
"Third Soul Skill, Angelic Feather Blade!"
As her third soul ring lit up, her six golden wings flashed.
Feathers burning with holy fire detached from her wings, floated in the air, and slowly transformed into six golden blades, constantly swirling around Qian Renxue. (Personal setting: Resembling Keisha's Silver Wings)
"Go!"
Where Qian Renxue's sword tip pointed, the blades were aimed.
First, a golden sword aura attacked, which Ye Qiu dodged to the side.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, six sharp blades attacked Ye Qiu one after another, constantly slicing across his body.
"Faced with such relentless attacks, let's see how long you can last!"
As she spoke, seeing that Ye Qiu still dared to charge at her, Qian Renxue's three pairs of wings flapped, and she slowly took flight.
"Even in this state, you still dare to use vulgar illusions to disturb my mind!"
Her face flushed slightly, she looked down at Ye Qiu, her eyes filled with shame and anger, barely suppressing the urge to fly down and pounce on him.
Her lips parted slightly, a divine aura dispelling the heat in her heart, her eyes radiating golden light.
"Hmph! I'll show you what a true god-level martial soul is!"
"Domain unfold!"
A delicate shout echoed through the sky above this space.
