Bibi Dong is Unhappy

After renting a house with a basement near Notting Academy, Xiao Lin and Tang San finally had a Secret Base of their own.

For the next half month or so, Xiao Lin, Tang San, and Xiao Wu trained together as usual, occasionally going to the Secret Base to discuss some Forbidden Content.

In the dim Secret Base, the three of them were all blushing in the basement.

"Seriously? Wouldn't that turn Blue Silver Grass into an Aphrodisiac Drug?"

Xiao Wu spat lightly in disgust, clearly unhappy with Xiao Lin's idea of turning Blue Silver Grass into a Food System Spirit.

Why did he have to choose that kind of Soul Beast? So improper.

Xiao Wu rolled her eyes at Xiao Lin and secretly resolved to protect Tang San's pure and spotless innocence.

"What? It's just the stimulation of Youth Hormone. It's perfectly normal in the adult world, and it can make a lot of money."

"Don't demonize it, okay?"

Xiao Lin had absolutely no awareness that his idea was terrible.

This time, the three of them were discussing the possibility of Tang San converting his Spirit toward attack or control.

While ensuring that Tang San primarily cultivated life force and later converted to a Food System Spirit, Xiao Lin chose a Soul Beast with aphrodisiac abilities.

It could release a fragrance that overwhelmed other Soul Masters' reason with desire—a perfect control-type skill.

Moreover, sex itself possessed life force. Once Tang San successfully converted to a Food System Spirit in the future, aphrodisiac Blue Silver Grass could be used as a certain kind of medicine.

It would definitely sell like hotcakes. Xiao Lin firmly believed that.

"Little San, do you think you could still happily forge if you had no money? Could you still play with Hidden Weapons? Could you buy precious ores?"

"Forget it, Brother Lin. I also think this is improper."

In the end, Tang San resolutely rejected Xiao Lin's suggestion. He did not want to disappoint Xiao Wu beside him.

Besides, if his Spirit became like that, then according to Xiao Lin's theory, Tang San felt that he would become improper too.

He might even become a pervert.

If he really had to make money, he could just make some of that Aphrodisiac Drug himself.

"Brother Lin, let's pick another one."

Tang San frowned with a very serious expression, making Xiao Wu secretly nod in approval.

If Tang San had really agreed, she definitely would not sleep in the same bed as him anymore.

So you do know that men and women should keep their distance, Rogue Rabbit? If Xiao Lin knew what Xiao Wu was thinking, he would definitely mock her like that.

"Fine, then I'll be serious. In a New Book I read recently, there was a Soul Beast that would suit you very well, Little San."

"It's called the Soul Gathering Pumpkin. It's a Soul Beast that can forcibly absorb the Soul Power of nearby plant-type Soul Beasts to break through."

"It's different from your Blue Silver Grass. Your Blue Silver Grass communicates with the surrounding Blue Silver Grass and has them help you gather Soul Power, while the Soul Gathering Pumpkin does it by force."

"Also, because this Soul Gathering Pumpkin absorbs the Soul Power of other plant-type Soul Beasts, its own life force is extremely powerful too. You understand what I mean, right?"

This time, Xiao Lin had indeed found a proper Soul Beast to suggest.

"In other words, if I obtained a Soul Ring skill like that, I might gain powerful life force and also be able to absorb an enemy's Soul Power."

"This one is pretty good, though it lacks regenerative abilities."

Tang San was very satisfied with this Soul Beast, except that it was inferior to Pom Pom Cotton in terms of regeneration.

You couldn't have both fish and bear's paw!

"Soul Gathering Pumpkin?"

Xiao Wu murmured softly. She seemed to have seen one in the Star Dou Great Forest.

Xiao Lin noticed Xiao Wu's expression. "What, does our little silly rabbit have something to say too?"

"What do you mean, little silly? I'm not silly!"

Xiao Wu pursed her lips and could not be bothered to talk to Xiao Lin. She merely memorized the name of the Soul Beast, intending to help Tang San look for one when she had the chance.

"Come to think of it, Brother Lin, why are you so set on finding a Man Faced Demon Spider? That kind of Soul Beast isn't suitable for your Second Soul Ring, is it? And you want one that's two thousand years old?"

Tang San did not quite understand Xiao Lin's persistence. According to Xiao Lin's theory, something was off...

"Didn't you say you wanted Soul Rings focused entirely on Acceleration and strength? It has poison too."

"Not exactly. I've been researching something lately. I don't want a Man Faced Demon Spider's Soul Ring, but I still need to use a Man Faced Demon Spider for some experiments."

Xiao Lin smiled faintly, very pleased that Tang San had asked this question in front of Xiao Wu.

Whether Xiao Wu would help him find a Man Faced Demon Spider or not, at least the chances were much greater now.

After chatting about physical training for a while, Tang San suddenly felt somewhat ashamed.

That was because his Spirit had no advantage at all against Xiao Lin and could not help Xiao Lin train.

Blue Silver Grass was too fragile, while the Clear Sky Hammer was too slow—and he could not use it at Notting Academy either.

Tang San even felt that he did not put as much pressure on Xiao Lin as Xiao Wu did.

Perhaps because Xiao Wu was weaker than him, Xiao Lin subconsciously let down his guard when facing Xiao Wu and weakened the Soul Power of his Indestructible Body. That was why Xiao Wu could sometimes leave Xiao Lin struggling to keep up.

Of course, Xiao Wu attacked only when Xiao Lin was not using his martial soul.

While Xiao Lin and the others were still discussing which thousand-year Soul Beast's Soul Ring to seek, several forces across the Douluo Continent had already descended into chaos.

The first was Spirit Hall.

When Bibi Dong of Spirit Hall heard her subordinate report that a letter had arrived from Notting City, she froze for a moment, thinking Yu Xiaogang had changed his mind and wanted to discuss something with her.

The moment Bibi Dong opened the letter, the first half of a thesis appeared before her.

It was that familiar Shocking Style again, and Bibi Dong's lips curled upward.

She immediately understood. This was a new thesis from Xiao Yan.

As for the author Lin Dong and the advisor Sky Mink Douluo written on it, Bibi Dong did not believe a single word of it.

Although there were reclusive Douluo powerhouses on the Douluo Continent, there did not seem to be even a Soul Douluo whose martial soul involved a mink.

As the Pope of Spirit Hall, she knew this very clearly. Not to mention that Xiao Yan's handwriting was identical to Lin Dong's.

Either Lin Dong was Xiao Yan and Sky Mink Douluo was Lin Dong, or Xiao Yan was Lin Dong, and Lin Dong was not a Douluo powerhouse.

Though it was a little convoluted, that was roughly what it meant.

Fortunately, with Xiao Yan's work setting such a fine precedent, Bibi Dong was also very interested in this thesis attributed to Lin Dong.

"Super Limit Soul Ring Absorption!"

Bibi Dong's eye twitched slightly as a trace of shock rose within her at Lin Dong's thesis.

If the previous thesis had merely summarized principles known to all advanced Soul Masters and offered sound advice, then this thesis would completely overturn the continent's established views.

Casting aside all traces of disdain, Bibi Dong began reading the thesis seriously.

The data in the thesis was exceptionally clear and straightforward, with no sign of fabrication. Based on Bibi Dong's lifetime of experience, its conclusions might even be entirely correct.

Then, just as Bibi Dong was repeatedly nodding in agreement with the thesis, the thesis cut off.

I'd already taken off my pants, and you were telling me you got your period?

That was more or less how Bibi Dong felt, and she was thoroughly displeased.

Especially when Lin Dong used her beloved Yu Xiaogang as a negative example, instantly darkening Bibi Dong's expression.

"Gui Mei, send people to find Xiao Yan and Lin Dong. If you cannot find them, then you—"

"Forget it."

Bibi Dong soon waved her hand through the air, making Gui Mei, who was about to step forward to receive her orders, retreat again.

"You and Yue Guan should read this thesis together, then go to the major academies to obtain the remaining portions. Also contact the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan."

Bibi Dong only felt irritated. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect was manageable, since Ning Fengzhi understood mutually beneficial cooperation, but Spirit Hall's relationship with the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan was not good.

After handing the thesis to Yue Guan and Gui Mei, Bibi Dong reclined sideways on the Papal Seat, supporting one side of her cheek with a soft, delicate hand.

"If this thesis is true, could Na Na try absorbing a two-thousand-year Soul Ring for her Third Soul Ring? Her brother Xie Yue could try as well..."
