Upon hearing Yu Xiaogang's question, everyone from Shrek Academy looked at Su Xing curiously.
Even Dai Mubai, who hated Su Xing to the bone, could not help wanting to know how that bastard had leveled up so quickly and become so strong in battle.
After watching Su Xing's fight just now, Dai Mubai realized that even if he broke through to level 40, he still might not be Su Xing's match.
It made him feel extremely stifled!
If he could find out why Su Xing was so strong now, it would be a good thing. Only then could he deal with him better in the future!
As for the people from Heaven Dou Royal Academy, they were rather confused by Yu Xiaogang's question. Though they were also amazed by how quickly Su Xing's level had risen, they did not know that one could no longer absorb Spirit Rings after Ring Detonation.
They knew even less that Ring Detonation could raise one's Soul Power Level.
Su Xing was also surprised when he heard this. He truly had not expected Yu Xiaogang to ask such questions. Was this not something Yu Xiaogang should have researched?
Besides, what gave you the nerve to ask me questions?
"After Ring Detonation, you can't absorb Spirit Rings anymore?" Su Xing temporarily suppressed his mockery of Yu Xiaogang and asked what he wanted to know.
"Of course. You didn't know that? Could it be that you can still continue absorbing Spirit Rings afterward?" Yu Xiaogang froze upon hearing Su Xing's words, then eagerly pressed him.
Could Su Xing do that?
"I don't know. I wasn't planning to absorb Spirit Rings anymore anyway!" Su Xing shrugged, indicating that he did not know.
After his initial surprise, Su Xing also guessed why Yu Xiaogang was asking him these questions!
Yu Xiaogang must have gone to Shrek Academy, learned about his situation, and done some research before pursuing the matter.
Still, Su Xing had not expected that he truly could no longer absorb Spirit Rings after Ring Detonation. He had always thought he could; he simply did not want to. That was why he had not absorbed a Spirit Ring at either level 20 or level 30.
Mainly because he feared that after absorbing a Spirit Ring, even if he detonated it, it would still limit his control over his own Soul Power.
So even if he had wanted to absorb one, he could not have done so anyway!
"You..."
"You actually never planned to absorb one again!"
Yu Xiaogang was shocked as well. He had not expected Su Xing never to have absorbed another Spirit Ring. From Su Xing's tone, he truly did not intend to have Spirit Rings at all!
"Then how has your Soul Power Level continued rising?"
But Yu Xiaogang no longer cared about that. He immediately seized on the key point and asked.
Haha! This felt amazing!
Seeing Yu Xiaogang, who had once refused to accept him as a disciple, now anxiously asking him questions, Su Xing felt utterly refreshed!
At that moment, Su Xing truly wanted to say something.
Why should I answer your questions? Aren't you known as invincible in theory?
But Su Xing did not say it so impulsively. That would truly mean falling out completely with Shrek Academy.
Even now, he had never intended to become enemies with Shrek Academy.
His refusal to join Shrek Academy had been due to his pride, and because he did not want Yu Xiaogang instructing him again.
His desire to seize the Immortal Herbs was also because he had previously gotten carried away and thoroughly offended Dai Mubai.
He could not get carried away again this time.
No matter how displeased he was with Yu Xiaogang, he could not openly offend him.
Yu Xiaogang's backing included not only the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, but also Bibi Dong.
However, when Su Xing considered Yu Xiaogang's question, he realized that he did not need to mock him to slap Yu Xiaogang in the face.
"Grandmaster, are you testing me?"
"Although I wasn't fortunate enough to become your disciple back then, I carefully studied all of your theories!"
"This question is covered in your theories. If a Spirit Master continues cultivating without obtaining a Spirit Ring to break through, their Soul Power will continue increasing."
"Grandmaster truly lives up to his name. I did not quite believe it before, but after cultivating myself, I found that it really was true!"
Su Xing answered respectfully, as though he thought Yu Xiaogang was testing him.
After Yu Xiaogang had refused Su Xing, he had indeed told Su Xing to read more of what he had published.
"..."
Boom!
Upon hearing Su Xing's words, Yu Xiaogang felt as if his mind had exploded with a boom, leaving him completely stunned.
"Right, I think Teacher's theories mentioned that!"
"Teacher..."
Tang San was also stunned. Before long, he remembered that Yu Xiaogang's theories really did contain such a point!
Yet not only had the Grandmaster forgotten, even he himself had forgotten!
At that moment, Tang San could understand just how embarrassed Yu Xiaogang was. The answer he had desperately wanted to ask about had been in his own hands all along.
Still, Tang San did not think the Grandmaster could be blamed. Although the Grandmaster's theories mentioned it, the exact level of Soul Power gained by continuing to cultivate without absorbing Spirit Rings could not be determined, whereas Su Xing clearly knew exactly what level he was at.
Not only Tang San, but Dai Mubai and the others could also sense the Grandmaster's embarrassment.
Their expressions were all strange!
Even Flender and the others felt awkward, let alone Yu Xiaogang himself. At that moment, he truly felt like he had nowhere to hide.
The answer he had been seeking all along had been in his own hands.
What an enormous irony!
"Mm... Mm! Not bad. It seems you've taken my words to heart." Yu Xiaogang barely maintained his expression as he responded to Su Xing somewhat stiffly.
As for why Su Xing's strength had risen so quickly, Yu Xiaogang no longer had the face to keep asking.
Right now, Yu Xiaogang only wanted to find a crack in the ground and crawl into it.
"Dean, Teacher Zhao Wuji, did you come here to let the younger students gain practical combat experience as well?"
Though Qin Ming did not know the exact situation, he could tell that the atmosphere was off and hurriedly changed the subject.
"Haha, yes. We brought Tang San and the others here to gain some practical combat experience."
Flender quickly picked up the conversation.
Then he chatted idly with Qin Ming, preventing everyone from continuing to focus their attention on Yu Xiaogang.
That would have been far too awkward!
Today was also Flender's first time seeing Su Xing.
After seeing Su Xing's performance in the duel arena, Flender truly regretted not having been at the academy back then. Otherwise, he definitely would not have let Su Xing leave.
This was a genuine monster!
He was even more monstrous than the little monsters of Shrek Academy.
Just now, Flender had actually considered whether he could recruit Su Xing back into Shrek Academy.
But now he did not dare entertain that thought. Flender believed Yu Xiaogang definitely would not want that either; this time, he had been slapped in the face far too badly.
Flender even doubted whether Yu Xiaogang could still keep Shrek Academy's little monsters in line.
