I Want to Educate You

"Two hall elders, it's a Crimson-Striped Eagle-Crested Snake very close to becoming a ten-thousand-year soul beast."

After that, two more soul masters who looked middle-aged descended. The arrogant young man ignored Su Mutian's presence and said to them, "Elders, let's go deeper."

"Mm!"

The man addressed as a hall elder glanced at Su Mutian.

With an old-fashioned air, he said, "Young man, don't try to show off. Going deep into a soul beast forest alone to hunt for a spirit ring is the easiest way to meet disaster. It's best to have the elders of your clan lead you. Only then can you obtain the spirit ring most suited to you."

Su Mutian shook his head, glanced at the Crimson-Striped Eagle-Crested Snake that had been knocked unconscious, and his smile deepened. "I don't have a sect. However, I'm here waiting for you."

"Waiting for us? Do you know who we are?"

The young man took a step forward, interest in Su Mutian rising.

"The Angel Family, Spirit Hall."

Su Mutian spoke calmly.

Across the entire continent, those who possessed the angel-inherited martial soul were none other than the Qian Family.

And this handsome young man before him was clearly the origin of the grudges in the later Douluo Continent—Qian Jixun!

That was right. This was the era that changed the entire structure of Douluo Continent, and it was also the era Su Mutian was now working toward as his goal.

It was all caused by this Qian Jixun before him, whose face looked as though he were still a young man.

It was he who led Spirit Hall toward strength, the beginning of Spirit Hall's pope-era golden age.

It was he who violated Bibi Dong, causing Bibi Dong and Yu Xiaogang to regret it for the rest of their lives, unable to be together.

(Wild joy (｡∀<｡))

It was he who killed Ah Yin, making Tang Hao, who should have risen to become the new-generation pillar of the Clear Sky Sect, fall into ruin, and causing the Clear Sky Sect to decline.

It was he...

The smile beneath Su Mutian's mask was somewhat charming.

The fact that he had learned Qian Jixun would soon head to Sunset Forest to hunt for a spirit ring was thanks to Spirit Hall's publicity.

In order to recruit more soul masters, and to make more commoners accept Spirit Hall's awakening ceremony.

Spirit Hall had pushed Qian Jixun out as a figure akin to an image ambassador.

He had outstanding talent and handsome looks, combined with Spirit Hall's strong support and the backing of his father, Qian Daoliu.

Qian Jixun's power development could be described as smooth sailing.

So the news that he would soon go to Sunset Forest to hunt for a spirit ring, even the general route, was not some great secret.

Su Mutian had not spent much effort before learning this information.

Then, after careful and cautious logical deduction, Su Mutian estimated that they would enter the depths of Sunset Forest from here.

In truth, this path was the closest, and also the most dangerous route.

But who was Qian Jixun?

Spirit Hall's second-generation official.

For something as important as absorbing a spirit ring, could there be no Titled Douluo protecting him?

Therefore, heading straight into the depths of Sunset Forest to hunt ten-thousand-year soul beasts was absolutely the best choice.

Of course, Su Mutian had only guessed, and in the end, he had blocked the right path.

Strictly speaking, Star Dou Great Forest was actually the best hunting ground. Perhaps Qian Jixun had gone into survival mode like Su Mutian, avoiding provoking existences in Star Dou Great Forest on the level of the Titan Giant Ape and the Sky Azure Bull Python.

But they probably did not know of their existence.

Moreover, Star Dou Great Forest covered a vast area, with all kinds of beings mixed within it. Apart from the Hundred Thousand Year overlords of the core region, there was still a great ominous land hidden behind the scenes.

Even if a Limit Douluo were trapped inside, his scalp would go numb, and he would find it difficult to contend with such a perilous realm.

So was that why Qian Jixun had settled for the next best option and come to Sunset Forest to hunt a spirit ring?

This possibility was not nonexistent. Although Spirit Hall in later generations dared to go deep into Star Dou Great Forest to capture Xiao Wu, they had not anticipated the terrifying aspects of those two, Da Ming and Xiao Ming.

Add to that the fact that the current Spirit Hall lineup still could not compare to the Spirit Hall of Bibi Dong's era, which possessed over a dozen Titled Douluo, and it was normal for Spirit Hall to act conservatively.

Though Sunset Forest could not compare to the vastness of Star Dou Great Forest, the varieties of soul beasts within it were also rich and diverse. Most importantly, in quite a few areas, one could pick at will.

As for Sunset Forest, Su Mutian's deepest impression was still that this was where the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well was located.

But its exact location was unknown.

It was said that back then, the Fire Dragon King and the Water Dragon King among the Nine Great Dragon Kings had fallen here at the same time, which was why the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well had been born.

And the remains of the two Dragon Kings were buried ten thousand zhang beneath the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. If not for that, countless soul masters would likely have come to explore and excavate it.

Then the entire Douluo Continent would become the world of grave robbers.

Naturally, Su Mutian also attached great importance to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

Ever since ten years ago, Su Mutian had drifted across the sea through twists and turns before finally setting foot on the continent.

At first, because his clone was at an extremely long distance, Su Mutian had to bear a massive Soul Power consumption. Fortunately, there was the all-purpose Sea God's Light.

After that, Su Mutian slowly entered towns from the coast. By now, even if his clone wandered freely through the two great empires, there would no longer be any Soul Power turbulence.

Soul Power turbulence referred to the fault effect caused by unstable Soul Power output.

In other words, if Su Mutian cut off the Soul Power supply to his clone, the clone he had worked so hard to get to Sea God Island would soon disappear.

Of course, as Su Mutian grew familiar with this Soul Power supply line, he could rely on this extraordinary spiritual power to directly descend remotely through a clone.

But up to now, Su Mutian still had not properly mastered its stability.

Perhaps with a few more years of continuous connection, he could accomplish this martial soul operation that would be enough to shock the entire continent.

The only person in the history of Douluo Continent whose clone wandered the entire world.

"Come to think of it, was the history of Douluo Continent created by me?"

Su Mutian asked himself inwardly in puzzlement.

By coming out to improve his actual combat ability, Su Mutian had also learned about the current situation on the continent.

That was what allowed Su Mutian to encounter this scene now.

Every chance meeting was a carefully planned scheme.

Rising to fame across Douluo Continent at a young age, crushing the royal geniuses of the Heaven Dou Empire and the Star Luo Empire.

Qian Jixun, oh Qian Jixun, if not for being blinded by lust, you would have had a bright future too.

Qian Jixun's face was cold. Hearing that Su Mutian knew their identities, he immediately exchanged a glance with the two hall elders and smiled knowingly.

"You're a soul master who wants to join Spirit Hall?"

"To dare face a sudden strike from a powerful soul beast over five thousand years old without fear, you must already have reached a realm above Soul Ancestor, no?"

That Spirit Hall hall elder smiled and said, "Spirit Hall welcomes all soul masters to join."

Another hall elder said, "Since we have met, it is fate. Young friend, you came to Sunset Forest presumably to hunt for a spirit ring as well. Which spirit ring is it? Since you have decided to join our Spirit Hall, you are naturally one of us.

"We will naturally do our best to hunt a suitable spirit ring for you. If you rely on your strength alone, I fear it will be difficult for your fifth spirit ring to surpass ten thousand years."

He waved his sleeve and laughed loudly. "Then come with us! But with the two of us helping, we can guarantee that your fifth spirit ring will be a Ten Thousand Year Spirit Ring."

"You're letting him go with us?" one hall elder transmitted his voice secretly.

That hall elder winked at him and also transmitted, "It may not be a bad idea. If we encounter danger, we can have someone serve as bait, reducing trouble and obstacles. If things proceed smoothly, we can also test what his strength is like."

It sounded reasonable, and the two hall elders reached an agreement.

They then said, "Young friend, what do you think?"

As someone whose main-body martial soul surpassed the limit realm, Su Mutian naturally sensed the faint Soul Power exchange between the two Titled Douluo.

But he did not take it to heart.

Instead, Su Mutian shook his head, pointed at Qian Jixun, and said, "I'm not particularly interested in joining Spirit Hall for the time being. However, there is one thing I want to do right now."

"What is it?" Qian Jixun said with a frown.

Facing two Titled Douluo from Spirit Hall and a popular figure like himself, he actually looked completely unmoved.

Damn it!

He didn't know what was good for him!

Su Mutian slowly summoned the Chaos Divine Sword, revealing five spirit rings.

He smiled. "I want to educate you."
