Arriving at the Great Fighting Soul City, they found that there were no teams above level sixty, making the battles unappealing.
Ye Yu and the others watched some matches before leaving.
Early the next morning, the nine of them passed through Hanhai City and arrived at the dock.
Ye Yu and the others found a ship responsible for taking them to Sea God Island; the ship obtained at the auction would be used again at Sea God Island.
The nine of them boarded the ship, and the fifty-something middle-aged captain smiled and said, "Welcome aboard the Sea Demon. I am Captain Haidar. Beautiful ladies and handsome gentlemen, we have planned the route for you, and we'll arrive at the destination as soon as possible."
Ma Hongjun excitedly said, "It's the first time someone called me handsome."
Dai Mubai replied, "That title doesn't include you."
Ma Hongjun resigned, "Never mind, I don't rely on my looks to make a living anyway."
Ye Yu recalled the original work, feeling that this person might not be a good person since Ye Yu was no longer an ordinary person and his vague memories were quite clear.
Ye Yu didn't expose him, thinking internally, "I have to rely on you to take me there. If I remember correctly, there's a Soul Beast over one hundred thousand years. So, get ready to breakthrough and become a Soul Saint."
Ye Yu had been stuck at level sixty-nine for a long time, but he wasn't anxious before since finding a Soul Beast over one hundred thousand years is challenging. Even without a breakthrough, energy can accumulate. When absorbing a Soul Ring and breaking through, the accumulated energy will manifest, causing Ye Yu to level up with each breakthrough.
The Sea Demon is a small yacht with three floors, six rooms on each floor. Ye Yu and the others stayed on the third floor, two people per room.
The weather was good today, calm and tranquil. After weighing anchor, the Sea Demon set sail.
The sea scenery is beautiful, vast and boundless, especially when the sun rises, casting shimmering waves on the surface, a truly stunning sight.
On the deck outside the third floor, Ye Yu and the others lay on chairs, enjoying the caressing sea breeze, cool and refreshing.
The nine of them were resting with their eyes closed; at this time, Ma Hongjun walked over to Bai Shenxiang and gently said, "Little Sister Shenxiang?"
Bai Shenxiang awoke, her eyebrows furrowed, her face slightly pale.
"Do you need something?"
Ma Hongjun smiled, "Do you have a boyfriend?"
Bai Shenxiang shook her head, "No."
"Then what do you think of me?"
Ma Hongjun straightened up proudly, thumbs pointing at himself, looking extremely self-satisfied.
Bai Shenxiang glanced at Ma Hongjun a few times, and he waited in anticipation for her evaluation; however...
"Ugh!!"
Bai Shenxiang bent over and vomited, causing Ma Hongjun to freeze.
"This..."
Ma Hongjun was on the verge of tears, wondering why she vomited once again...
"Is it because I look too ugly?"
Bai Shenxiang shook her head, "Don't misunderstand, I'm seasick. Don't disturb me; sleeping will make it better."
"Alright."
Ma Hongjun left grudgingly, feeling downcast. Every time he tried to chat with Bai Shenxiang, she ended up vomiting, giving him a psychological shadow. He dared not continue attempting it, sighing internally: Boss Yu has a lot of girls who like him, Brother Bai and Third Brother definitely do as well. Although Xiao Ao is single, he's so handsome and doesn't need to worry. But me, am I destined to be a bachelor forever?
At noon the next day, with the sun shining brightly, Ye Yu and the others fished. It would take about eight days to reach Sea God Island.
The fish they caught was cooked in various ways: grilled, steamed, and eaten.
Haidar said, "Honorable Soul Masters, according to this course, it should take eight days to reach Sea God Island. In half a day's time, we'll arrive at the area where Soul Beasts are active, depending on your support by then."
Tang San asked, "You often voyage out to sea, don't you? How do you handle encounters with powerful Soul Beasts?"
"Soul Beasts rarely assault ships, only the aggressive ones would do so. If they are very powerful, we can only accept the misfortune. Every year, one-tenth of people who go to sea perish. But don't worry, the ship's coated with a Soul Beast-repelling substance. Most Soul Beasts won't approach due to the smell. My familiarity with this area is like having a mental map, knowing where is dangerous and safe."
Then, Ye Yu asked, "So, the fate of most people on board is often in your hands, right? After all, you could intentionally steer the ship to hazardous areas."
Haidar smiled, "Yes, but why would we do that? We don't want to die either."
The next morning, the sea fog hadn't yet cleared when Ye Yu and the others got up for the breakfast prepared on the ship.
After eating, Ye Yu and the others went on deck, where the morning mist had dissipated as the sun gradually rose.
Haidar, with the crew, smiled and said, "Soul Masters, was breakfast to your liking?"
Ma Hongjun raised his thumb, "Very delicious, especially the black caviar, which was very fresh."
Ye Yu then frowned slightly, his body swaying, rubbing his head, "Why am I feeling a bit dizzy?"
Haidar laughed, "Dizzy, of course, since you ate the most."
As Haidar finished speaking, Xiao Wu and others' expressions changed slightly.
Haidar laughed loudly, "So what if you're Soul Masters, at sea, it's our domain. Coming here at such a young age must mean you are noble descendants seeking training, right? Killing you, emptying your money and belongings, and we're rich."
Bang bang bang...
The other people felt dizzy one after another and fell.
Haidar sneered, "Everyone come out, resolve them."
A total of ten crew members emerged, all Soul Masters.
However, at that moment, Ye Yu and the others stood up one by one.
Instantly, Haidar widened his eyes, incredulous, "How is this possible? Why are you awake?"
Ye Yu calmly said, "We were pretending."
Ma Hongjun mocked, "This kind of poison, in front of my Third Brother, is nothing but child's play. Even if we didn't catch on, Boss Yu's constitution can't be killed even by a Titled Douluo, let alone this trashy sleep drug of yours?"
Haidar and the ten crew members' faces changed drastically, backing away in horror.
Tang San coldly said, "From the first day, I thought you were suspicious. For a captain, you seem to know too much about Soul Masters. While I didn't know how you hid your Soul Power, each of you moved agilely with strength beyond ordinary people. After you drugged us, I noticed immediately, confirming my suspicions."
Realizing his exposure, Haidar swiftly unleashed his Martial Soul, surrounded by five flashing Soul Rings, while all ten were Four-Rings Soul Masters.
Tang San and Bai Shenxiang took action, using the First Soul Skill, Entanglement, to immobilize all ten crew members.
Haidar retreated in terror, seeing Tang San surrounded by six Soul Rings, yellow, yellow, purple, black, black, black.
He couldn't believe that the fourth Soul Ring was over ten thousand years old.
"How could it be? So young, yet a Six-Ring Soul Emperor?!!"
He felt utter despair, unable to believe or comprehend.
Attempting to act, Haidar was trapped by the Blue Silver Cage.
Bai Shenxiang moved swiftly, killing all ten crew members regardless of their hysterical pleas, her heart as hard as iron.
For those who sought to kill her, mercy was unnecessary.
Afterwards, she had the ten people thrown into the sea.
Haidar was not killed, as Ye Yu had said earlier to keep him for further use.
Though puzzled, Tang San carried out the plan as intended, given the need for guidance to Sea God Island.
Tang San pressed Haidar's acupuncture point, leaving him numb and powerless, sealing his Soul Power and dispersing his Soul Rings.
