Chapter 375.

"At that time, he was simply outrageous! I was only eleven years old that time, a twelfth-level power attack system soul master, and he didn't even had a soul ring, yet he could still beat me up! At first glance, you wouldn't think so, would you?"

When Wang Feng heard the voice, he paused, a little stunned. He couldn't help but wonder, 'When did I take on a younger brother?

After a moment of reflection, he recalled the past.

Then, a burst of laughter rang out.

"Bragging, are we? Your boss is Wang Feng? Then my boss is still Jiu Yikai! Back then, a person like you wouldn't have even known him!"

"Hahaha, he's long gone now, so you can keep blowing your trumpet. But Jiu Yikai can't come out of his grave to refute it, now can he?"

"You're a soul master who hasn't even reached level fifty, and you're still saying he was your boss? Back then, he wouldn't even have accepted you as a disciple."

Wang Feng observed Xiao Chenyu at that moment. Twelve years later, the guy had barely reached the 45th rank, not even reaching Soul King level yet. At twenty-three years old, with only a rank 45 Soul Ancestor, he wasn't extraordinary, but still, he wasn't too bad.

Among most ordinary soul masters, he was considered upper-middle tier.

He has a handsome appearance, married a beautiful wife, and was now the lord of Nuoding City, having inherited his father's business. Time had passed quickly, and Wang Feng had not revealed himself to Xiao Chenyu. He simply watched from a distance.

For an ordinary person, Xiao Chenyu had a good life. He had strength, a remote city to govern, a beautiful wife, and stability. Wang Feng observed for a while–, thinking that, despite everything, this kid had managed to live well.

Xiao Chenyu enjoyed boasting, telling others that he knew Jiu Yikai and Wang Feng. But no one believed him.

Wang Feng remembered that, back when he was in Nuoding City, he was focused entirely on his training. He had spent time with Xiao San and Xiao Wu, and also occasionally interacted with Xiao Chenyu. But after this guy had been promoted to the Intermediate Soul Master Academy, they lost touch. By the time five years had passed, Wang Feng had already left Nuoding City.

After a brief moment of reflection, Wang Feng left the Nuoding city and made his way to Suotuo city, where he visited the Great Fighting Soul Arena.

He also stopped by the small village that had once been home to the original Shrek Academy.

In Suotuo City, Wang Feng unexpectedly ran into Old Black and Ling –Ren, two people he had lost track of long ago.

Both had suffered severe injuries, with each losing a limb, but they were doing well. Wang Feng remembered how Silk Rong had taken them in, hiding them away in Suotuo City all those years ago.

They had found a semblance of peace, but their strength had diminished too much to do anything beyond simple survival. Only Silk Rong, still with Qian Renxue, had remained at the forefront of power.

"Old Black is almost forty now... His son is already fifteen or sixteen."

Wang Feng kept his observations to himself. As part of his travels across the mainland, he had come across familiar faces. "Ling Ren has also settled down with a family. His wife is the girl he had been supporting while she studied at the Advanced Soul Master Academy. It seems there were no scandals involved..."

They were all leading peaceful lives.

Wang Feng didn't intervene or reveal himself—he simply observed for a while before moving on.

His journey continued, and as he ventured outside Suotuo, he discovered that a small village had transformed into a thriving town!

"Maple Town."

The name caught him off guard.

At the entrance to the town, he noticed a stand with a sign that read:

"Jiu Yikai trained in our town for a year! Don't miss visiting our village!"

"Fuckin' Hell..."

Wang Feng didn't know what to think. He could only stand there, feeling that everything had changed.

He remembered that Shrek Academy had moved to Heaven Dou City long ago, and before that, it had been part of Blue Bull Academy. To think that the original location of Shrek Academy, once outside Suotuo City, had now become a small town.

"Big brother, big brother, are you here to pay respects to Jiu Yikai?"

A young boy, standing at the town gate, tugged at Wang Feng's clothes, excitedly pointing to a string of trinkets hanging from his body. "Would you like to buy some souvenirs? I have these Jiu Yikai wood carvings. See, this one is his heroic stance in the Suotuo City Great Fighting Soul Arena, this one is from the Silves Great Fighting Soul Arena, and this one is from his fight during the Heaven Dou City qualifiers..."

The boy proudly displayed several carvings on his display.

Every accessory was vividly portrayed, capturing the exact image of Wang Feng—clad in a black robe and a white mask as Jiu Yikai, fighting in various scenes. Some scenes were set in Suotuo City, others in Silves City. Some were from the qualifiers, others from the qualifying matches, and even... some depicted the finals.

The finals against Tang San and his team.

Wang Feng watched intently, marveling at how exquisitely crafted these statues were. The details were impressive, including various forms of the Armored Black Thorns. They resembled his previous battle stances almost perfectly!

"If you don't buy one now, there won't be any left in a while. These sell out very fast. They're a limited edition," the little boy said with a grin.

Wang Feng was taken aback. The limited edition was already sold out?

At that moment, a crowd of soul masters surrounded the boy, and in no time, all the accessories were gone.

"See, big brother? They're sold out..." The boy shrugged, a hint of amusement in his voice.

It seemed these figures were especially popular.

Wang Feng stood there, dazed. He observed the bustling town around him—people coming and going. It was still early in the morning...

'Am I really that influential? Did I make such an impact?' Wang Feng thought, bewildered. 'Even my action figures are gone so quickly?'

'Could it be that even in death, people became famous for everything they did?'

"Hey, kid, who made these... uh, I mean your wooden carvings?" Wang Feng asked, eyeing the delicate craftsmanship.

These carvings were too fine to be the work of an ordinary person. Even the layout of this small town was too beautifully constructed to be typical. The heroic poses from the finals were captured with such precision—this had to be someone who was actually there.

The little boy looked at Wang Feng warily, his tone cautious. "That's a secret. I can't say. I promised the person who made these wood carvings that I'd only handle the sales."

Wang Feng reached into his pocket and pulled out a bag of Gold Soul Coins, placing it in the boy's hands.

"Ahem... This might help you remember a little better," Wang Feng said with a smile.

The boy hesitated but then grinned. "Alright, alright, big brother. Follow me, I'll –show you something." 

He led Wang Feng to the back of the stand, pointing to a pattern on one of the carvings.

It was the emblem of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Clan.

Wang Feng froze, recognizing it immediately.

So, this small town had been built by the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Clan? And the figures... they were clearly made by someone who had seen him fight in the finals. The way his posture was captured, the intensity of those moments—it could only be from someone who had been there.

"Could it be you, little devil?" Wang Feng asked, his surprise evident.

This was the very place where he had faced off against her for the first time, where he had kicked Sword Douluo to the ground. It was here that the story had truly begun.

The boy shrugged. "Well, big brother, I have to go now. It's a shame, really. These limited edition wood carvings only come once every two weeks. If you want one, you'll have to wait until then."

Wang Feng was silent, reflecting on the unexpected revelation.
