According to the description in Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, which can be considered a living "history book of Soul Beast," Zhou Qing and his small group learned why the Elemental Fox could not break through to the ten-thousand-year level.

In an era whose exact time is unknown, a giant silver dragon, covered in blood, broke through the barrier of space and descended into the Star Dou Great Forest of the Douluo Continent, concealing its aura and falling into a deep slumber.

At that time, a Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King located on the Douluo Continent summoned all the Soul Beast to collect the Silver Dragon Blood and return it to the Silver Dragon to help it recover from its injuries more quickly.

Apart from the Elemental Fox Ancestor and a certain type of Tiger Type Soul Beast that was descended by an evil god, other Soul Beast, including the Man Faced Demon Spider, the Demonic Eye Magic Tree, and other races that like to devour, dare not keep the Silver Dragon Blood to themselves.

The so-called Tiger Type Soul Beast that was descended by an evil god is undoubtedly the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger. The moment it appears, it will be surrounded and attacked by all the Soul Beast, and it will not be given any chance to grow.

The Elemental Fox Ancestor, however, cunningly left behind a portion of the Silver Dragon Blood he had found, gathered all his offspring, refined it together, and then migrated them to different regions for large-scale reproduction.

Thus, the refinement of the Silver Dragon Blood is a foregone conclusion, and even the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King cannot possibly exterminate the entire Elemental Fox clan across the continent.

The Silver Dragon fell into a deep sleep, powerless to do anything, and even if it awoke, it dared not use any divine power in order to guard against some kind of threat from beyond the heavens.

That's roughly the gist of the matter.

Sky Dream Ice Silkworm summarized his findings.

The Elemental Fox refined the Elemental Power from the Silver Dragon Blood into their own bloodlines. However, it's unclear whether Elemental Fox ancestors encountered problems during the refining process, or whether they deliberately proliferated to avoid the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King's pursuit, thus depleting the original essence... In any case, once an individual member of the Elemental Fox clan reaches a certain cultivation level, they gain the ability to absorb Elemental Power, influence their own bloodlines, and thus complete a transformation. But after the transformation, it seems they lose the possibility of further enhancing their cultivation.

Has the possibility of increasing cultivation level been lost?

Zhou Qing, however, did not think so.

The creatures of this world, including Soul Beast, must also follow the laws of evolution: adaptation.

The Elemental Fox's "evolution" was forcibly completed by relying on the blood of the Silver Dragon King, and it was done in one fell swoop, rather than evolving over a long period of time.

Therefore, the main reason why the Elemental Fox loses the possibility of increasing its cultivation level after completing its transformation may simply be because it suddenly evolved into a form that it is not used to and gained control of an elemental power that it has never controlled before, so it does not know whether to continue cultivating, thus creating the illusion that the Elemental Fox cannot reach the ten-thousand-year level.

After tens of thousands or Hundred-Thousand-Year of reproduction and growth, the Elemental Fox living in different regions should be able to gradually figure out the cultivation methods that their transformed bodies are suited to.

However, in the initial stages of transformation, the Elemental Fox, unable to immediately adapt to its newly transformed body, becomes a target for other predators...

Based on the fact that the maximum lifespan of Elemental Fox has been continuously increasing in previous versions of the "Martial Soul Encyclopedia," it can be inferred that Elemental Fox that have completed their metamorphosis are gradually adapting to their new bodies, and some individuals that have lived long enough have also figured out corresponding cultivation methods.

besides--

When the Silver Dragon descended from the sky bathed in blood, was it really only the Elemental Fox Ancestor who secretly kept a portion of the Silver Dragon Blood?

Team Thirty wins!

Zhong Dingxiu's voice pulled Zhou Qing back to reality.

On the field.

All the members of Team Twenty-Five fell, unable to fight any longer.

Team Thirty was in no better shape. Apart from the Soul Grandmaster who was still standing, two of the three Soul Grandmaster Soul Master down, one was kneeling, and the other three were lying on the ground, unable to fight any longer.

"The next match will begin in half an hour." Zhong Dingxiu took a ball out of the box: Team Twenty-Five. "The Team 18 in the second half is Team Twenty-Five."

Team Thirty Captain breathed a sigh of relief, beckoned the two kneeling Soul Grandmaster to get up, helped the others down, and sat cross-legged on the edge to recover their Soul Power.

The captain of team Team Twenty-Five struggled to her feet. She was the only one still able to move, so she gritted her teeth and prepared to help her teammates off the field one by one.

"Let's go help," Zhou Qing said, taking the lead and walking into the field. He helped up one of the members Team Twenty-Five, and followed behind the Team Twenty-Five captain.

Tang San, Xiao Wu, Romantina, and Qingzhu Zhu also stepped forward to help.

Mo Hen hesitated for a moment, but still went over.

"Aren't we rivals?"

Captain Team Twenty-Five looked at Mo Hen warily, "You wouldn't be hoping I'll go easy on your students, would you?"

"Um... I actually didn't want to help," Mo Hen said, speaking the truth.

Zhou Qing: "..." Teacher Mo, there's a reason why you're still single!

Team leader Team Twenty-Five is an adult woman, single, of above-average appearance, and now she is injured. If they go forward to help her, they will surely win the favor of her entire team!

Captain Team Twenty-Five was taken aback, his gaze falling on Zhou Qing: "I thought I was seeing things, but I didn't expect you to really be the core of this team."

"Ahem, I'm just the Deputy Team." Zhou Qing was a little embarrassed and quickly changed the subject, saying to Mo Hen, "Teacher Mo, why don't you find some teachers in the academy to help them with their treatment?"

Mo Hen frowned, opened his mouth, and then heard Zhou Qing say, "We just need to participate. Besides, we will still give Teacher Mo his share of the compensation as agreed."

Mo Hen said irritably, "Am I the kind of person who cares about such a small amount of money? Honestly, I've been lectured by my own student! Well, it's good that he's seen more on the field, so he'll be more mentally prepared when he enters the Soul Master World in the future."

Before long, the teacher with the healing Martial Soul was brought over by Mo Hen. He used his Healing Soul Skill to reduce the bruises and swelling on the bodies of the members of Team Twenty-Five at a visible speed.

As for restoring Soul Power, this Healing System Soul Master from the Nuoding Academy was powerless to do so.

"Thanks."

Seeing that his teammates' injuries had mostly healed, Captain Team Twenty-Five sincerely thanked the Healing System Soul Master from the Nuoding Academy, but then turned to Zhou Qing and asked, "Aren't you afraid of losing?"

"Isn't it normal for us six-year-olds to lose?" Zhou Qing retorted.

Captain Team Twenty-Five looked Zhou Qing, Tang San, Xiao Wu, and the others up and down, remained silent for a while, and then said Youyou, "Why do I feel like you guys aren't children?"
