Ten Year Soul Beast, Six-Winged Jade Centipede?

Readers, seeing this, the author would like to explain something to those who enjoy this book.

Regarding the protagonist's First Soul Ring being a Ten Year Soul Ring, some readers keep criticizing it, saying that absorbing a Ten Year Soul Ring makes the protagonist trash, useless, and so on.

The author gets very angry hearing this. What kind of nonsense is this?!

The author does not intend to argue over it, but I cannot deny readers who enjoy this book a reasonable explanation!

Yet people keep criticizing and insulting it again and again. It is truly unbearable to watch!

This will inevitably give readers who are genuinely following this book the mistaken impression that the protagonist really became trash and useless just because he absorbed a Ten Year Soul Ring, as those people claim!

So today, the author has no choice but to explain that the original purpose behind setting the protagonist's First Soul Ring as a Ten Year Soul Ring was mainly to let him better play the pig to eat the tiger and show off. It was not a brainless decision to absorb a Ten Year Soul Ring.

Now that I have spoiled it for everyone, I hope some readers will show some restraint and go easy on the criticism.

Another little spoiler: the protagonist's Third Soul Ring will be a Thousand Year Soul Ring, his fourth Soul Ring will be a ten-thousand-year one, and his fifth Soul Ring will be a hundred-thousand-year red ring.

Of course, Ten Year and hundred-year Soul Rings can also be upgraded into Thousand Year Soul Rings later on.

Thank you to all the esteemed readers who enjoy this book for your support. I hope this book brings you happiness. Thank you!

"Hundred Treasures Glazed Pagoda?"

Wang Xiao felt that this martial soul did not seem to have any direct connection with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda martial soul of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

They only had seven treasures, while his had a hundred. Its rank should be much higher.

Even if Ning Rongrong's later mutation became the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, it still could not compare to his Hundred Treasures Glazed Pagoda.

Wang Xiao suddenly found it rather amusing. It seemed that he had a few too many martial souls.

There had been four before, and with this one, there were now five.

That meant he had Five Martial Souls.

On the Douluo Continent, the only known case so far was Twin Martial Souls.

Yet he had gone from Four Martial Souls to Five Martial Souls.

Any one of them, taken out on its own, would be incredibly formidable.

Take this Chicken Blood Vine martial soul, for instance. It looked unimpressive on the surface, but it was actually extremely powerful.

Just then, something glowing blue fell from the sky.

It dropped straight onto Wang Xiao's head and struck him squarely.

He did not dodge in time and was hit directly.

It was a tower-shaped object. This should be the Hundred Treasures Glazed Pagoda the system gave me.

The instant it touched his head, it entered his body and sank into his Dantian.

Perhaps because he possessed the Seven-Orifice Exquisite Heart, Wang Xiao's eyes actually had an inner-vision ability.

He could clearly see all five martial souls floating within his Dantian.

The Chicken Blood Vine martial soul floated at the center of his Dantian.

The Twelve-Winged Fallen Angel martial soul and the Twelve-Winged Holy Angel martial soul were curled around the Chicken Blood Vine martial soul, sleeping.

The Thunder God Hammer martial soul and the Hundred Treasures Glazed Pagoda floated motionlessly around the Chicken Blood Vine martial soul.

It looked as though there was a pattern to it.

The Chicken Blood Vine martial soul occupied the central position in his Dantian. This represented that it was the center, while the other martial souls could only stand to the side.

It seemed that this plant-type Martial Soul of his might be his main martial soul, while all the others were merely supporting characters.

"Hey, what is your name?" The girl in the short red dress had followed him for several hundred meters. Seeing that he had not said a single word, she could not help moving closer and asking.

Only then did Wang Xiao realize someone was following behind him.

He had genuinely forgotten about her for a moment!

When he turned back and looked at her, he finally remembered. He had been too absorbed in his thoughts and had actually forgotten this little girl. "Wang Xiao. You can also call me Brother Xiao Xiao."

"Wang Xiao, my name is Xiao Yan. Xiao as in little, Yan as in color. You can call me Sister Yan." The girl in the short red dress immediately introduced herself.

"Xiao Yan, why are you still following me?"

"We formed a team. If I do not follow you, who am I supposed to follow?"

"No, I never said I would form a team with you!" Wang Xiao refused to admit it no matter what.

Xiao Yan nearly coughed up blood. "Hmph, no way! You took ninety-nine Gold Soul Coins from me. Whether you want to or not, you have to form this team with me!"

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~

Just then, several disturbances sounded from the surrounding woods, instantly startling them both.

A foul stench rushed toward them, and the air seemed to turn deathly still at that moment, brimming with murderous intent.

"A Soul Beast is approaching us!" Xiao Yan became alert first and pressed her back against his.

Wang Xiao smiled. Ordinary Soul Beasts are nothing much to me. I am only a little afraid of them.

Still, facing a Soul Beast for the first time made him rather nervous.

As for this classmate Xiao Yan, she had acted as if she feared neither heaven nor earth outside!

But once she entered the Soul Hunting Forest, she immediately became like a startled bird, her temperament completely changed.

It seemed that she was not as strong inside as she appeared on the surface.

Tap, tap, tap~

At that very moment, a long creature flew out from a towering tree dozens of meters away.

Then, with lightning speed, it flapped its wings and lunged at the two of them.

"It is a Six-Winged Jade Centipede! It is huge, at least a Ten Year Soul Beast." Xiao Yan recognized the monster at a glance and called out its name.

"My Nine-Leaf Red Lotus Martial Soul is only for support and has no offensive power. What is your martial soul?"

"If it is a Beast Martial Soul or a Tool Spirit, then if the two of us join forces, we can definitely defeat it." Xiao Yan spoke to him while dodging.

Wang Xiao remained utterly calm. "You do not need to know that. I already told you, I am not forming a team with you."

Before long, Xiao Yan was chased by the Six-Winged Jade Centipede Soul Beast until she had nowhere left to hide.

Wherever its three pairs of wings swept through, they were like six sharp blades, cutting down every tree around them.

The trees were sliced into section after section and crashed to the ground with tremendous noise.

Xiao Yan was already running out of strength. With nowhere to hide, she was about to be caught by the Six-Winged Jade Centipede Soul Beast.

If she did not think of something soon, its three pairs of wings would slice her into several pieces. She might end up even worse than the broken logs around her.

Seeing Wang Xiao standing in place without moving, she became furious.

That guy will not help, but he will not run either. What is he doing?

Could he be scared stiff?

I am done for this time!

If I had known Wang Xiao was this useless, I would rather have waited outside for another ten days and ten nights than form a team with him and come in here to get myself killed.

Hmph!

Since you are heartless, do not blame me for being ruthless.

"You Six-Winged Jade Centipede Soul Beast are so annoying! There is someone standing there without moving. Why do you not go bite him? Why are you chasing me and refusing to let go? Do you only know how to bully girls?"

"I knew it. You are just as cowardly as he is, only picking on the weak and fearing the strong!" Xiao Yan complained about the Six-Winged Jade Centipede Soul Beast bullying her as she fled.

Hmm, this Six-Winged Jade Centipede Soul Beast was precisely an eleven-year Soul Beast, suitable for a Level Ten Spirit Master to absorb as a Soul Ring!

Wang Xiao examined the Six-Winged Jade Centipede Soul Beast with a smile as he thought.

Over the past few days at Nuoding City Junior Soul Master Academy, he had read quite a few books introducing the Soul Beasts of the Douluo Continent.

One passage happened to be an introduction to this Six-Winged Jade Centipede Soul Beast.

Its age could be judged from its segments.

One segment equaled one year.

This Six-Winged Jade Centipede Soul Beast before him had roughly ten or eleven segments.

It was already a Soul Beast over ten years old, so its Soul Ring could be absorbed, and it suited his current level.

Furthermore, they were flying Soul Beasts. Their attributes were surely similar to his Twelve-Winged Holy Angel martial soul and Twelve-Winged Fallen Angel martial soul, so they should be a successful match.

Of course, that was not necessarily certain.

According to one of Yu Xiaogang's ten core theories of Martial Soul World competitiveness, Beast Martial Souls did not necessarily have to absorb Soul Rings from Beast Martial Souls.

Likewise, Plant Martial Souls did not necessarily have to absorb plant Soul Rings. They could absorb and make use of each other, reaching heights others could not.

Of course, someone first had to dare to try it.

Wang Xiao had read the original Douluo Continent storyline, so Yu Xiaogang's theory, one of the ten core theories of Martial Soul World competitiveness, did have a certain success rate.

After all, Tang San had listened to Yu Xiaogang and successfully matched the beast Soul Ring of a Mandala Snake with the Plant Martial Soul Blue Silver Grass, gaining many benefits.

From Wang Xiao's analysis of Yu Xiaogang's theory, one of the ten core theories of Martial Soul World competitiveness, it was not a one-hundred-percent guarantee of a successful match.

Matching the Blue Silver Grass martial soul with the Mandala Snake martial soul was indeed fairly suitable.

Aside from being different species, they were actually very similar in other respects.

For example, the Mandala Snake's body was also naturally long and slender.

Second, its toughness was highly similar to the resilient and flexible nature of Blue Silver Grass.

With these similarities compared, the odds of a successful match greatly increased. Perhaps that was where Tang San's success lay.

Therefore, Wang Xiao felt that the Soul Ring of this Six-Winged Jade Centipede Soul Beast was even more similar to his Twelve-Winged Angel martial soul. Matching them should be more perfect and more likely to succeed.

After considering it, Wang Xiao concluded that it could only be matched to the Twelve-Winged Angel martial soul as its Soul Ring for the greatest possibility of success.
