Two Girls with Completely Different Styles

No matter when I saw Brother Ming's spirit ring configuration, it was always breathtaking.

When Tang San had first learned that Brother Ming's second spirit ring was a thousand-year one, his initial reaction had been exactly the same as everyone else's.

Absorbing a spirit ring beyond one's age limit placed extremely high demands on a soul master.

Whether it was one's innate talent or the effort one put in, both had to be exceptional.

After a brief moment of shock, Tang San had quickly accepted this reality.

He had subconsciously believed that having a thousand-year second ring was no difficult feat for his elder brother.

In his eyes, with his elder brother's talent and diligence, there was almost nothing he could not accomplish.

Breaking some of the conventions in soul master history was perfectly normal as well.

"So, I'm qualified to go in and take a look now, right?"

Looking at the stunned Li Yusong, Su Ming asked confidently.

"Of course, of course." Li Yusong hurriedly nodded, afraid that such a monstrous genius as Su Ming might slip away.

"Hurry up, Little San, Xiao Wu."

After saying that, Su Ming stepped out of the line and went to wait nearby for Tang San and Xiao Wu.

Seeing this, Dai Mubai perceptively abandoned the idea of taking them into the academy first.

He had wanted to build a good relationship with such geniuses on the way, but it seemed he would have to wait until later.

While waiting, Su Ming also calculated the Willpower he had just harvested.

The level and spirit ring configuration he had displayed had helped him reap a substantial wave of Willpower.

Ning Rongrong, who had run away from home and secretly slipped out of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and Zhu Zhuqing, who had fled from the Star Luo Empire, had both given Su Ming a harvest.

"Alright, Brother Ming."

Seeing Su Ming urge them on, Tang San did not waste any time.

After tossing twenty Gold Soul Coins into the collection box, he released his martial soul together with Xiao Wu.

They directly skipped the initial bone-age assessment.

Li Yusong did not say anything upon seeing this.

Instead, he silently watched Tang San and Xiao Wu release their martial souls.

Rules were often made for ordinary people to follow.

If one possessed sufficient strength or talent, one could easily break those rules.

With the extraordinary spirit ring configuration Su Ming had displayed, along with his talent of becoming a Soul Elder at twelve,

he would surely be frantically recruited by any faction he joined.

Those so-called rules were definitely insignificant before people like them.

Moreover, it could be judged from their brief exchange just now that the three of them knew one another and were close.

That was why Li Yusong had directly skipped the bone-age test—he was saving them time and doing them a favor.

As for falsifying one's age, Li Yusong felt that geniuses of this caliber had no need for it. They possessed their own pride.

At that moment, Tang San and Xiao Wu exchanged a glance and released their martial souls simultaneously with perfect understanding.

As they activated their Soul Power, blue and red light rose at the same time.

Two yellow hundred-year spirit rings appeared around each of them.

Blue Silver Grass could be cultivated this quickly too. Sure enough, monsters were surrounded by monsters.

Li Yusong's gaze settled on Tang San.

Their spirit ring configurations were both the continent's mainstream optimal setup, with their first two rings both being hundred-year ones.

However, Su Ming's spirit ring configuration had been far too shocking, so it had not caused much of a stir.

Yet anyone with knowledge would, like Li Yusong, turn their attention toward Tang San.

A Blue Silver Grass martial soul could actually be cultivated this quickly.

No wonder he had come with Su Ming.

After completing the test, Tang San and Xiao Wu walked over to Su Ming and waited with him.

Dai Mubai came over midway, intending to lead them into the academy.

However, Su Ming refused him with only a casual remark. "There aren't many people left to test anyway. Let's wait a little longer. Going in together will save you the trouble of running back and forth."

Since Su Ming had said so, Dai Mubai could only continue waiting there.

The testing proceeded almost exactly as Su Ming had said.

The words Li Yusong had spoken when he released his martial soul had discouraged many people, greatly reducing the number of those waiting in line.

Thus, the testing here was completed very quickly.

Among them, only two girls with completely different styles passed the test.

One wore a simple white dress that gave her a very clean, refreshing air.

She had neat, short pink hair that reached her ears and stood half a head shorter than Xiao Wu.

Her voice was soft and sweet, while every gesture carried the refined bearing of a young lady.

The other had long black hair draped over her shoulders and skin as pale as snow.

In contrast to her voluptuous figure, the girl's expression was exceedingly cold, giving off an unapproachable aura that kept others at a distance.

As though they had arranged it beforehand, the two girls walked toward where Su Ming's group stood.

Clearly, they also intended to enter together to save time.

Dai Mubai was preparing to lead those who had passed inside after the test ended.

When he saw the appearances of these two girls, a lecherous look appeared in his eyes.

"Tch, what's so good about looking?" Xiao Wu found that sort of gaze especially repulsive.

Then she noticed that her Third Brother had looked too, so she glared at him fiercely.

Perhaps glaring was not enough, so Xiao Wu directly reached out and pinched Tang San.

Tang San sucked in a cold breath and withdrew his gaze.

At that moment, Xiao Wu noticed something rather interesting.

Su Ming was looking at those two girls as well.

Xiao Wu immediately became excited and began mocking Su Ming.

"Who was it that usually acted like such a gentleman? Now that he's seen pretty girls, hasn't he revealed his true nature?"

She absolutely could not let such a perfect opportunity pass by.

"When I say you're dumb, you refuse to believe it.

Back at Nuoding Academy, you should have read more books like Little San. That way, you wouldn't expose how foolish you are the moment you opened your mouth."

As Su Ming withdrew his gaze, he calmly lectured Xiao Wu.

"Hm? What did you say?" Hearing this, Xiao Wu only felt that Su Ming was changing the subject because he was guilty.

Just as she thought she had gained the upper hand and was about to press her advantage,

Su Ming began explaining.

"One look tells me you weren't paying attention to the test just now. You were too busy pestering Little San to play.

Those two girls aren't merely pretty—their martial souls are also extremely famous..."

"Uh..." It truly was one thing to keep another in check. Xiao Wu was left somewhat speechless by Su Ming's words.

Seeing this, Tang San could only step in to smooth things over.

While explaining what his elder brother Su Ming meant, he also gave Xiao Wu a way out.

Tang San had been watching the testing process as well, so he could provide plenty of useful information.

"One of them has the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda as her martial soul, inherited from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, a sect renowned throughout the continent..."
