Looking at the Wind Baboon's corpse, the enormous crack in the ground, and Huo Yuhao lying on the ground.
The three fell silent.
"A Wind Baboon?"
"Could Yuhao have absorbed this Wind Baboon's soul ring?
His martial soul has a Spirit Attribute. This Wind Baboon's soul ring doesn't match him at all. He isn't in danger, is he?"
When soul masters absorbed soul rings, they were not only limited by the Soul Ring Limit; there also had to be an attribute match.
After all, the origin of a soul ring had to fuse with the martial soul. If there was no compatibility at all, a conflict between their origins could easily occur.
Compared to Tang Ya's anxiety, Bei Bei was somewhat calmer as he carefully observed Huo Yuhao's condition.
"Xiao Ya, don't worry. Yuhao's aura is very stable, and the Soul Power in his body has grown much stronger. If I'm not mistaken, he should have successfully absorbed the soul ring and become a soul master."
Then, Bei Bei sighed.
"What a pity. His First Soul Ring is only a ten-year Wind Baboon."
Tang Ya's hand appeared on Bei Bei's ear as she said dissatisfiedly, "Hmph, so what if his first ring is a little weak? Yuhao was alone and still managed to kill a Wind Baboon. That's already very impressive."
"Yes, yes, yes. Xiao Ya, put your hand down first."
Huo Yuhao quickly woke up.
The moment he opened his eyes, he saw Tang Ya's worried face, as well as Bei Bei and Su Yu beside her.
"Am I really not dreaming?"
Thinking back on everything that had just happened, he still felt as though it were a dream.
Tang Ya reached out and pinched Huo Yuhao's arm.
"Ah! That hurts! Sister Tang Ya, what are you doing?"
"Hehe, see? It hurts, right? That means you aren't dreaming."
Huo Yuhao came back to his senses as well.
A Million Years soul ring.
Four Soul Skills.
They were all real!
And with all of this, revenge no longer seemed so far out of reach.
Tears welled up in Huo Yuhao's eyes.
Tang Ya's heart ached at the sight of him.
What sort of experiences had driven an Eleven Years Old boy to come alone to a place as dangerous as the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt for a soul ring?
Tang Ya did not know what Huo Yuhao had experienced before, but she sympathized with him deeply.
"Yuhao, although your First Soul Ring is only a ten-year Wind Baboon, you don't need to lose heart."
Tang Ya and Bei Bei comforted Huo Yuhao. He froze for a moment but did not refute them.
He had no intention of telling anyone else about Sky Dream Ice Silkworm either.
Still, Tang Ya and Bei Bei comforting him at this time moved him greatly.
"But Yuhao, do you know how dangerous that was just now?"
After comforting him came the scolding. Tang Ya went through every danger in Huo Yuhao's actions.
Huo Yuhao quietly listened to her reprimand without the slightest dissatisfaction.
Because he could feel that she was concerned for him.
Ever since his mother passed away, he had never felt this kind of concern.
Though it came in a different form, he truly enjoyed it, and the guard around his heart gradually lowered.
After Tang Ya finished scolding him, she began asking Huo Yuhao about his plans.
"Yuhao, now that you've obtained your First Soul Ring, what are your plans next?"
"Ah? I don't know either."
Huo Yuhao was somewhat lost. Hatred was the only thing supporting him, driving him to become stronger and seek revenge, but he had no real plan.
He suddenly thought of the Body Sect Su Yu had mentioned.
Then he thought of Tang Ya and the Tang Sect.
"How about joining our Tang Sect, Yuhao? Although our Tang Sect has declined, its inheritance remains. And our Tang Sect has exemption admission to Shrek Academy."
"Shrek Academy?"
Huo Yuhao heard another familiar name.
Tang Sect and Shrek—these were names from the stories his mother had told him when he was young.
He instinctively longed for these two legendary names.
Tang Ya's words had already moved him.
"Sister Tang Ya, then I'll join the Tang Sect."
"Wonderful!"
"Then Sister Tang Ya, is there anything I need to do to join the Tang Sect?"
"You must continuously improve your cultivation, grow stronger, and take it as your duty to revive the Tang Sect.
Our Tang Sect has an exemption admission slot to Shrek Academy every year. Bei Bei and I are already students of Shrek Academy, so if you join the Tang Sect, this slot will be yours.
And most importantly, once you join the Tang Sect, you may never betray it. If you ever leave the Tang Sect one day, you must return all of the Tang Sect's ultimate arts."
Su Yu grimaced as he listened from the side.
Huo Yuhao did not feel that anything was wrong and still expressed his desire to join the Tang Sect. Tang Ya was delighted.
Bei Bei also congratulated Huo Yuhao and celebrated his joining.
"Yuhao, acknowledge me as your teacher. There are only three of us in the Tang Sect, so there's no need to make it so complicated. Bow to me, call me Teacher from now on, and you'll be a member of the Tang Sect."
Huo Yuhao nodded, then dropped to his knees before Tang Ya with a thud and bowed.
"Alright, Yuhao. From now on, you are the Tang Sect's second disciple. Bei Bei is your Senior Brother, so you must call him Senior Brother from now on." Tang Ya accepted Huo Yuhao's three bows and spoke.
"Greetings, Senior Brother."
"Don't stand on ceremony, Junior Brother. We're family from now on."
Bei Bei smiled faintly and pressed his belt. A completely black belt inlaid with round pieces of white jade appeared.
"Junior Brother, this is a soul tool modeled after Twenty-Four Bridges on a Moonlit Night, the soul tool of Tang Sect ancestor Tang San. Consider it a greeting gift from your Senior Brother. With it, carrying things will be much more convenient for you in the future."
Tang Ya likewise took out a book from her Storage Soul Tool.
"Yuhao, this is our Tang Sect's Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record. It contains the Tang Sect cultivation method, the Mysterious Heaven Skill, as well as various ultimate arts.
One of those ultimate arts, Purple Demon Eyes, is extremely compatible with your Spirit Eye. You must cultivate it well.
Bei Bei and I will guide you in cultivating the Mysterious Heaven Skill and the other ultimate arts later."
Huo Yuhao accepted the belt. With Bei Bei's help, he learned how to use it and stored the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record Tang Ya had given him inside.
Huo Yuhao had successfully entered the sect.
At this moment, Bei Bei turned around and invited Su Yu once again.
"Little Brother Su, are you really not going to consider it?"
The Tang Sect had already declined, and its circumstances were terrible. Not long ago, it had even lost its sect grounds. These changes had left Tang Ya nearly unable to breathe under the pressure.
Bei Bei had seen it all and wanted to help her share some of that burden. Su Yu's talent was exceptional. If he could join the Tang Sect, the pressure on Xiao Ya would ease considerably.
Unfortunately, Su Yu was destined to have no such fate with them.
With heaven-defying comprehension, Su Yu did not want to become merely a Level One God. Besides, even things like marriage and opportunities would be controlled. That feeling would be worse than death.
A chastity lock—could you believe it?
Right, enough said.
"Brother Bei, thank you again, but the Tang Sect really isn't suitable for me."
