Going After the First Soul Ring? Liang Hao Had Other Ideas!
Because Yu Xiaogang had mentioned Soul Rings, quite a few people were reminded of them.
Although Yu Xiaogang had tried to step on Bibi Dong to elevate himself, most people paid him no mind.
Most people simply began wondering what Soul Ring this Liang Hao should get.
Only Bibi Dong still played along with Yu Xiaogang and picked up where he left off.
[Douluo I Bibi Dong]: "Xiaogang, don't worry. Whether it's the real me or the me in the instance, we'll both respect you."
[Douluo I Bibi Dong]: "You're right. How could my knowledge of Martial Soul Theory compare to yours?"
[Douluo I Bibi Dong]: "But this Liang Hao really does have Innate Full Soul Power. He should be going to get a Soul Ring soon, right?"
[Douluo I Yu Xiaogang]: "Does that even need saying?"
[Douluo I Yu Xiaogang]: "According to my Ten Core Competencies of Martial Soul, Soul Power will still accumulate even without a Soul Ring."
[Douluo I Yu Xiaogang]: "But if you have the resources and the opportunity, of course it's better to raise your level as soon as possible."
[Douluo I Yu Xiaogang]: "Bibi Dong, in my opinion, the you in the instance will probably take him to get his First Soul Ring very soon."
[Douluo I Ning Rongrong]: "Seriously, this is the theory Grandmaster? After all that talk, wasn't it all just crap even a pig would know?"
[Douluo I Ning Rongrong]: "Who doesn't know you need to get a Soul Ring once you reach the required level? We need your theory to tell us that?"
[Douluo I Ma Hongjun]: "Exactly, what kind of theory is that? Hey, Grandmaster Yu, why don't you try guessing what Soul Ring he'll get, and which Martial Soul he'll get a Soul Ring for first?"
[Douluo I Yu Xiaogang]: "Enough! Who do you think you are? Are you qualified to question my theories?"
[Douluo I Yu Xiaogang]: "How would I know what Soul Ring he can get? Getting a Soul Ring isn't just about finding a suitable one; it takes luck too!"
[Douluo I Yu Xiaogang]: "What if he goes to the Star Dou Great Forest and never comes across a suitable Soul Beast? Then what the hell is there to talk about?"
[Douluo I Ma Hongjun]: "Seriously, why are you making such a fuss if you don't know? You could've just said you didn't know."
[Douluo I Dai Mubai]: "Exactly. If you don't know, you don't know."
[Douluo I Oscar]: "Is this theory Grandmaster really that much trash? Why does everything he says feel wrong?"
[Douluo I Oscar]: "He said Liang Hao would go get a Soul Ring right away, but now that he's said it, why do I feel like that won't happen?"
[Douluo II Huo Yuhao]: "It can't be that bad, can it? Grandmaster is an existence who has XXXX over ten thousand years. Surely he wouldn't get this wrong?"
[Douluo II Huo Yuhao]: "What else could someone with Innate Full Soul Power do if not get a Soul Ring?"
[Douluo I Bibi Dong]: "That's right! You little brats, are you deliberately trying to smear Xiaogang?"
[Douluo I Bibi Dong]: "How could Xiaogang be wrong about something so small? It's common knowledge!"
[Douluo I Yu Xiaogang]: "Hmph! Once you reach the required level, every Soul Master knows to get a Soul Ring as soon as possible. Just to smear me, you're even questioning something this trivial!"
[Douluo I Yu Xiaogang]: "Fine! Then let's see whether this boy does just that! Once the facts are laid out, what will you have to say for yourselves?!"
What Yu Xiaogang had said was perfectly logical.
How could a Soul Master with Innate Full Soul Power not go get his First Soul Ring as soon as possible?
In fact, most people quite agreed with what Yu Xiaogang had said.
So Yu Xiaogang felt that this Ma Hongjun and Ning Rongrong simply couldn't stand him.
And where had this Oscar and Dai Mubai popped up from?
They dare question this Grandmaster over something like this?
Outside Heaven Dou City.
On the road, Yu Xiaogang clenched his fists and glared at the Light Screen Chat Group as he cursed:
"Never mind that this Grandmaster was wrong about Liang Hao's Martial Soul earlier."
"But have I somehow forgotten even this bit of common knowledge now?"
"Liang Hao took Bibi Dong as his teacher. If he doesn't go get a Soul Ring, is he going to stay and sleep with her instead?"
"This Ma Hongjun must be some little brat. Deliberately targeting this Grandmaster like this—he's courting death!"
"Forget it. I'll keep watching and slap their faces with the facts later."
Yu Xiaogang was full of confidence about this as he watched the light screen.
Spirit Hall.
Inside the Pope's bedchamber.
Bibi Dong looked at the light screen and said with great confidence:
"Xiaogang guessed wrong before, but he definitely isn't wrong this time."
"For a young Soul Master, absorbing a Soul Ring sooner is naturally better."
"The me in the instance will definitely take Liang Hao to absorb his First Soul Ring, too."
"What's there to question about that..."
"But I wonder what Soul Ring the me in the instance can get for this child."
Similar scenes played out across the Douluo Continent.
Leaving aside children like Ma Hongjun, Soul Masters with a little more sense were largely on Yu Xiaogang's side this time.
So most people watched the light screen not to see whether Liang Hao would get a Soul Ring, but to see exactly what Soul Ring he would get first.
On the light screen.
Liang Hao had formally become Bibi Dong's disciple.
Bibi Dong had also announced it to all of Spirit Hall. Everyone now knew that she had taken a new disciple who was a top-tier genius.
Different people throughout Spirit Hall had different reactions.
For example, when Yan and Xie Yue heard that Bibi Dong had taken Liang Hao as her disciple, their first reactions were wariness and confusion.
After all, neither of them was qualified to become Bibi Dong's personal disciple, so where had this Liang Hao come from?
Over at the Worship Hall, Qian Daoliu and the others had also heard that Bibi Dong had taken a disciple.
Qian Daoliu pondered the matter for a long time in the Worship Hall and discussed it with the other worshipers. In the end, they all concluded that Liang Hao probably still couldn't compare to Qian Renxue.
So although they cared about it, they didn't pay it too much attention.
As for Yue Guan, Gui Mei, and the many other people serving Spirit Hall, they were simply curious and didn't have many doubts.
Quite a few of them genuinely hoped that, given the chance someday, they could meet this so-called heaven-blessed genius in person.
Bibi Dong alone had personally kept an eye on Liang Hao over the past few days, helping him get familiar with his surroundings.
Liang Hao chose to accelerate time to get through the quiet period, and in the meantime, he did become familiar with Spirit Hall and Spirit City.
Once he had settled in, Bibi Dong came looking for him again.
That day, Bibi Dong came to Liang Hao's residence to discuss his development.
"Xiao Hao, have you gotten fairly familiar with things these past few days?"
Liang Hao nodded obediently. "Teacher, I've gotten familiar with Spirit City and Spirit Hall."
"Everyone has been very good to me, especially you, Teacher, with all your care."
Bibi Dong nodded, satisfied at last.
Then she got down to business. "Now that you've spent these past few days getting familiar with things, it's time for me to take you to the Star Dou Great Forest to get a Soul Ring as soon as possible."
"You have Innate Full Soul Power and Twin Martial Souls. You can absorb your First Soul Ring without any need to cultivate."
"And the sooner you absorb a Soul Ring, the greater the benefit to your cultivation."
"So I came especially to tell you today: get ready, and tomorrow I'll take you to get a Soul Ring."
All of this was indeed in line with normal logic and the expectations of Yu Xiaogang and the others outside.
Even if Liang Hao said nothing, Bibi Dong would still take him to hunt Soul Beasts.
After all, who wouldn't want to break through when stuck at a level?
However, while Bibi Dong thought this way, Liang Hao didn't necessarily feel the same.
Of course Liang Hao knew how important Soul Rings were, but he had preparations of his own...
