C49 Soul Symbolizer
Morning came...
Kyle woke up with a weird smile on his face.
He re-organized his thoughts and remembered what happened yesterday during his hot steamy session with Feng Yexue.
He felt like he living on a dream, due to the unbelievable event that just happened.
He finally graduated from being a virgin and tasted the forbidden fruit.
It was a nice sensation, especially since he did it with a goddess like Feng Yexue.
He opened his eyes and surprisingly... He saw Feng Yexue beside him, staring at him.
She was using his arm as her pillow while she was drawing circles on his chest.
"I forgot to tell you something yesterday." She said while she looked at Kyle's azure eyes with sincerity.
"What is it?"
"I love you too..." She said as she kissed his lips.
Kyle felt fulfilled when he heard this.
He already knew, just by her actions and expressions; about her feelings for him, but to actually hear the words from her mouth personally was a different matter.
Due to her kiss, their bodies got heated up again, and so, they couldn't stop themselves and did another session of love-making.
...
....
....
After a couple of hours...
Feng Yexue and Kyle went out of the tent and started to plan for their future endeavors.
They decided to battle the child dragon together, but the prowess of the child dragon was really strong, so they needed a strategy in battling him.
Thankfully... Even though the child dragon had a lot of strange techniques, all-in-all, he only had the strength of a 5th stage Xiantian.
Such, they had hope in battling him, especially now that there was two of them.
However, their ultimate problem was the roar attack of the child dragon.
"He only had 5th stage Xiantian strength, so if we attack simultaneously, we could overpower him and slowly create some opening for you to launch a finishing strike, but our only problem is that strange roar of his. Do you have any solution against it?" Kyle asked her.
"That roar was a type of soul attack. He only got me that one-time since I was unprepared from it, but no worries, I got soul blocking treasures soul tempering pills in-hand." She said while taking out some strange looking charms and pills.
"Once I used these charms and pills, he ceased on using his soul attacks against me, so these should help us in the battle, but I'm not entirely sure if these things could prevent him from using his soul attacks since he might be faking it."
Kyle had now finally realized why the child dragon had never used his soul attack against her again.
"Hmmm, so that was a soul attack huh?" Kyle said while remembering the attack that hit him.
He felt that soul attacks were similar to his Haoshoku, so he thought that he could defend against it if he was prepared for it.
Yet, he knew that the power of the soul attack was clearly way above his current Haoshoku, such, he isn't expecting his Haki to be able to guard against that soul attack of the child dragon.

Thankfully... Feng Yexue has treasures and pills that could help defend against it.
However, there was still a huge risk since as Feng Yexue had said; he might just be voluntarily ceasing on using it to fake and bait her.
But still... They needed to defeat the child dragon to help her little sister, so he needed to take the risk.
In these past months...
Kyle had already deduced that the child dragon might only be testing them, so there must be an easier way or loophole to pass this trial.
The child dragon was really strong, especially for someone with only the strength of a 5th stage Xiantian, such, the owner or the maker of this place must have put some way for someone to pass this trial since the child dragon was clearly monstrously stronger for someone that only had 5th stage Xiantian strength.
If he did not, then there weren't any uses for the trials, so he asked Feng Yexue:
"When you first encountered the child dragon, did he say anything about this floor?"
"Hmmm" she mumbled while remembering her memories.
"Yeah, we just need to last for a day while battling against him." Feng Yexue said with a straight face.
"Damn!" Kyle cursed, but only in his thoughts since he didn't wanna anger his woman.
He stared at her with disbelief.
"Such an important information, yet you just say it now?" Kyle thought while staring at her.
"Anyways, lasting for a whole day is also difficult since as I remember, the longest time that you lasted while battling him is 10 hours," Kyle said and he continued:
"Well, once we fight him together we could stretch it for a few more hours, but the problem is; if he would change the terms of the trial if we both fight him at the same time."
Feng Yexue listened attentively.
She had battled with the child dragon countless times already, but she wasn't worried about it in the past, but this time; the battle was now dangerous.
She wasn't fighting alone this time.
One mistake and she could lose someone who she loved, so she got worried while thinking about this.
Seeing her worries... Kyle came close and embraced her.
"Don't worry... We can do this, but to be sure, let's delay our battle for a few days, so we could familiarize with battling together." Kyle comforted her.
"Mmmm" she nodded and returned his embrace.
The two of them decided to delay their battle and Kyle asked her:
"But before anything else, why don't you tell me about soul attacks?"
Then, she went on and explain it to him.
"Soul attacks are the attacks used by Soul Symbolizers. As I said in the past, the owner of this Pagoda is a Soul Symbolizer. I don't know if the owner or the master of this place is the child dragon, but judging from the child dragon's actions, there's a huge chance, that he is not the owner of this place, however, that doesn't change the fact that he is a Soul Symbolizer." Feng Yexue explained.
"Soul Symbolizer?" Kyle asked in confusion.
Kyle remembered her talking about this in the past, so he asks her.
"Soul Symbolizer is a noble profession in the entire continent. They are people who were born with great soul power. They can manifest the power of their souls and use it to inscribed symbols that could affect or even change the laws of this world; depending on the strength of a person's soul."
"Soul Symbolizers also had their own levels and stages, for example," she took a blank paper and placed her hand on it.
Seconds later... Yellowish-gold energy gushed out from the tips of her fingers and she used this yellow energy to draw a symbol that looked like those kanji letters on earth.
After she finished drawing the symbol.
The paper hardened and it glowed with a yellow hue around it while the symbol shone brightly. At the upper left of the paper, two small yellow stars appeared in it.
Feng Yexue lifts the paper up and said:
"Like this -- This is just a basic talisman, the symbol written on it means *hard*.
The two yellow stars that you can see on the upper left determines the grade that I currently am." She explained while pointing on the stars.
"The Soul Symbolizers on the continent are only a few, so the knowledge that we know of are still lacking. There are only two known grades on Soul Symbolizers: Moon Grade and Star Grade. Moon Grade gives of a white-silver hue while the Star Grade gives off a yellow-gold hue." Then she continued.
"Each grade are divided into five divisions, namely... 1 moon, 2 moons, 3 moons, 4 moons, and 5 moons. It is the same for the Star grade. Whenever a Soul Symbolizer creates a symbol, the grade, and division of their soul could be seen, hence there were two stars in this paper since I am a 2 stars Soul Symbolizer."
Kyle was attentively listening since this information was very useful, but her words made him remember something.
The first time he saw a formation, he saw a barrier-like formation that had blackholes on it with a dark hue, so he wanted to ask her about it.
However, before he could utter a word and asked her about it, Feng Yexue spoked:
"I know what you're thinking, you saw it too right? There was an array that separated the Ancient Pagoda from the Misty Ruins. That's what I meant when I said the continent lacks knowledge about Soul Symbolizers. It was also the first time that I heard and saw a formation that wasn't a moon or star grade. I bet that the master of this Ancient Pagoda was someone not from this continent since I had never seen a grand formation like that."
Hearing this made Kyle impressed by the master of this Ancient Pagoda.
A person like Feng Yexue is already the peak on this continent, yet the owner of this place could still baffle and surprise her.
This also shown him on how weak he really is, but he was already over this.
He had only been cultivating for a couple of years, so of course, those monsters out there who had lived for centuries or millennia would be a lot of stronger than him.
However, he was confident about himself.
This was just the start of his journey.
He might be unlucky to meet some dangerously boss-like characters in this early phase, however, this has also helped him grew and opened his eyes clearly, and above all; this had also allowed him to meet the first love of his life.
Such as, he was contended by this.
This fired him up as he said: "No worries, no worries... In time, I'll surpass them!"
