Ferros Breaks Through to Soul King

"They've all taken it?" Ferros asked, somewhat surprised.

"Yes, they took it a year ago. This Immortal Herb has immense medicinal power. Generally speaking, one person only needs to take one to benefit for life. Taking too much is not only not beneficial, but also harmful. Therefore, this Primordial Immortal Herb is useless to Xue'er and the others," Lu Yuan said softly.

"Well, what about your sister, Wang Qiu'er? Has she taken it?" Ferros asked.

"I've already prepared Qiu'er's. This one is specially reserved for you, so you can eat it without worry," Lu Yuan said.

"Alright then, since you've put it that way, this old man won't stand on ceremony with you." Seeing that Lu Yuan had said so, Ferros stopped refusing. Being able to improve his strength was naturally a good thing for him as well.

With greater strength, he would be better able to help his son with whatever he could.

The current strength of the Soul Ancestor is truly pathetic.

Ferros felt somewhat ashamed that his son and daughter-in-law were both Soul King while he, the father, was only Soul Ancestor.

Now that his son is so filial, he'll accept it. With increased strength, he can better help his son manage the vast Heavenly Star Academy.

After all, this kid has never liked to get involved in things, so it's up to me, his father, to help him out.

Ferros thought to himself.

"How do you eat this? Are there any special rules?" Ferros looked at Lu Yuan.

"There's nothing special about it. Just eat it. After you finish, meditate to absorb the Soul Power. Don't worry about being disturbed. I'll be here to protect you," Lu Yuan said with a slight smile.

"Hmm!" Ferros nodded, then picked up the Primordial Immortal Herb and swallowed it quickly, then crossed his legs, closed his eyes, and began to meditate and absorb Soul Power.

The energy of the Primordial Immortal Herb is considerable, and the absorption process is naturally quite lengthy.

It took about two hours for the energy fluctuations on Ferros's body to gradually stabilize.

"Level 50 already?" Feeling the aura emanating from Ferros, Lu Yuan smiled faintly. Now that Ferros had broken through, he would take him to hunt for a Soul Ring tomorrow.

Speaking of which, it seems that Ferros's first four Soul Rings were only white, yellow, yellow, and purple, which is really pathetic. This fifth Soul Ring should at least be a ten-thousand-year-old one.

With Ferros's current physique after consuming the Primordial Immortal Herb, finding a Soul Ring that is 14,000 to 15,000 years old will be no problem at all.

I can't let my son find a worthless Soul Ring anymore. After all, he's my old man, and I have to find a good one.

Lu Yuan thought to himself.

Three days have passed in the blink of an eye.

During these three days, Lu Yuan also obtained a 15,000-year-old Crimson Flame Three-Headed Wolf Soul Ring for Ferros, which was extremely compatible with Ferros's own Martial Soul.

It's worth mentioning that after consuming the Primordial Immortal Herb, Ferros's Crimson Flame Hound Martial Soul Evolution into the Hellfire Demon Hound, significantly improving its quality.

Moreover, after absorbing the Soul Ring, Ferros's strength reached the level of a level 52 Soul King, which can be considered a complete transformation.

Although a level 52 Soul King isn't high, it's still acceptable for a dean. After all, Heavenly Star Academy is currently just a high-level Soul Master Academy. Although it's developing quite fast, it's still far behind the Heaven Dou Royal Academy and others.

Therefore, with a strength of level 52 and Lu Yuan's support, securing the position of dean should not be a problem.

Lu Yuan could clearly sense that after his strength improved, Ferros felt much more relaxed and motivated. Sure enough, Ferros still had some reservations about his previous Soul Ancestor level, feeling that he was not worthy of his position. But now, he felt much better.

Lying in bed, Lu Yuan's Double Pupils flickered slightly as he looked at the world outside, which was gradually becoming brighter. He sighed softly in his heart; another new day had begun.

Speaking of which, he does have some things to announce today.

As Lu Yuan was deep in thought, a pair of jade-like arms wrapped around his neck. Zhu Zhuqing stared at him with her large, clear eyes, her gaze filled with affection.

"You woke up so early? Why didn't you sleep a little longer?" Zhu Zhuqing asked softly.

"Once you've had enough sleep, you'll naturally wake up, and you won't be able to fall back asleep."

"If you're sleepy, you should take a nap. It's still early." Looking at Zhu Zhuqing's pretty face, Lu Yuan said with a smile.

"I'm not sleepy, I'm feeling great right now." Hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing gently shook her head.

"Alright, if you're not going to sleep, then let's get intimate. There's still plenty of time." Lu Yuan said, a strange smile appearing on his lips. He leaned in slightly and captured Zhu Zhuqing's cherry lips.

When Lu Yuan kissed her, Zhu Zhuqing was first stunned, then quickly reacted, hugging Lu Yuan's neck and responding passionately.

She really enjoyed the feeling of being close to Lu Yuan.

After a long while, their lips parted.

Lu Yuan held Zhu Zhuqing tightly around the waist, pulling her into his arms. Their faces were so close that they could hear each other's breaths.

"You looked like you were thinking about something with your eyes open just now. Can you tell me about it?" Zhu Zhuqing gently pressed her forehead against Lu Yuan's forehead, her breath hitting Lu Yuan's face as she spoke.

"There are indeed two things I need to announce today," Lu Yuan said softly, meeting Zhu Zhuqing's curious gaze.

"What's wrong?" Zhu Zhuqing asked.

"The first thing is naturally the matter of the Dragon King Guard. I plan to establish a Dragon King Guard. The number of people doesn't need to be large, thirty-six people will be enough. However, each of these thirty-six people must be at least a Soul Sage. I plan to hand them over to Zi JI to lead, and they will serve me directly."

"Thirty-six experts above the Soul Sage, does the Dragon King Hall have that many Soul Sage left?"

"You should know that although each of the three major halls has more than twenty Soul Sage, they are basically responsible for important matters. If too many are transferred at once, it may affect the development of the Dragon King Hall."

Hearing Lu Yuan's words, Zhu Zhuqing frowned slightly and said softly.

"I know that. I only said that we would establish the Dragon King Guard, not that we would select all thirty-six people at once. Let's select eighteen for now. It won't have too much of an impact if we draw six Soul Sages from each hall."

"The rest can be transferred later when we have enough manpower, and maybe we can even select a few Soul Douluo to join then," Lu Yuan said with a slight smile.

"Well, it's good that you've considered it." Zhu Zhuqing nodded gently after hearing Lu Yuan's words.

Suddenly, as if remembering something, her gaze sharpened. "Lu Yuan, you just said you were handing over the Dragon King Guard to Zi JI?"
