The Final Carnival, the Curtain Rises

When Tang Hao heard that Tang San wanted to obtain the Fourth Ring of the ten-thousand-year ring, his first reaction was to refuse.

But as someone who had been through it all, Tang Hao realized something was wrong as soon as he had the idea of objecting.

During this time, he had been secretly observing Tang San, including secretly testing his physical strength and power.

He could confirm that Tang San's physical strength was no weaker than that of a slightly weaker Beast Martial Soul King, and that Tang San's Spiritual Power strength had already reached that level before.

If that's the case, then why can't I absorb Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring? Although it's still a bit of a stretch, it has indeed reached the minimum threshold.

This made it hard for him to contain his excitement. He never expected that the "Bone Exchange Secret Method" would have such an effect. Doesn't this mean that the so-called limit of the Soul Ring age is no longer the limit for those who have mastered the Bone Exchange Secret Method? Even if not everyone is a genius in terms of Spiritual Power like Xiao San, it is impossible to withstand the soul impact from Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast at the Fourth Ring.

Even so, the increase in the age of the first three Soul Ring is enough, and it is time for the Clear Sky Sect to rise again.

Calm down, that's for later. Right now, dealing with the Xiao San is more important.

Forcibly suppressing his excitement, Tang Hao transmitted his voice to Yu Xiaogang, informing him of the suitable range of Soul Beast for Tang San's fourth Soul Ring, and asked him to pass it on to Tang San so that Flender could take him to hunt it. He would naturally follow in the shadows to ensure absolute safety.

During this time, Tang Hao really didn't waste a single moment. In order to find a suitable Soul Beast for Tang San to Bone Replacement, he explored a large part of Sunset Forest, not to mention the whole forest. Naturally, there were many Soul Beast suitable for the fourth Soul Ring of Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul.

After having Yu Xiaogang inquire further about Tang San's requirements for the Fourth Soul Skill, Tang Hao offered two options for them to choose from: one was the Ironclad Vine, and the other was the famous Crypt Demon Spider.

The former was Tang Hao's judgment based on his personal experience, while the latter followed the consistent style of the two, simply to meet the Soul Skill that Tang San needed.

Well, Tang Hao didn't care about Tang San's development of the Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul. He had already seen Tang San's performance after obtaining the Soul Ring, and it was simply unbearable to watch.

Or rather, he never thought much of Blue Silver Grass from the beginning, and if it weren't for Ah Yin, he might have even mocked her.

Anyway, Tang San has already reached the point where he can absorb Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring, so he can directly switch to cultivating the Clear Sky Hammer after the competition.

With a starting point of ten thousand years for Soul Ring Configuration, and the ability to directly reach the Soul Ring Soul King, Soul King at the age of 15, this is even faster than his previous speed. Coupled with the "Bone Exchange Secret Method," it is enough for him to return to the Clear Sky Sect.

After some discussion, Tang San and Yu Xiaogang, unsurprisingly, chose the Crypt Demon Spider. Their main concern was that they couldn't be sure what the effect would be if the former's Soul Ring was placed on the Blue Silver Grass.

As for the Crypt Demon Spider, there's no need to worry. According to the data, over 90% of the Soul Skill obtained by Soul Master who have hunted such Soul Beast are control-type skills, and there is also a certain chance of obtaining group control Soul Skill. This alone is enough to excite them.

Moreover, it should be noted that Tang San's third Soul Ring also came from a spider-type Soul Beast, and the spider web was poisonous, but it was a bit fragile.

This time, they chose the same type of Crypt Demon Spider again, which might even provide some enhancement and make up for the shortcomings. Such situations are not uncommon in the Soul Master World, which is why they insisted on choosing the Crypt Demon Spider.

Seeing that they had made a decision, Tang Hao told Yu Xiaogang the location and left ahead of time.

As a father, how could he not witness this scene with his own eyes?

Not only that, he also had to do his part. Although the Crypt Demon Spider wasn't considered powerful by Flender, its most annoying feature was its ability to burrow underground, which was a minor problem for flying-type Soul Master.

But for Tang Hao, this was no problem. There was nothing that couldn't be solved with one blow. If one blow wasn't enough, then two would do. He wanted to get there ahead of time to destroy the cave and underground passages of the Crypt Demon Spider and force it to the surface as much as possible.

Although the Xiao San is unaware that he has been hiding in the shadows and only finds it a bit strange, once he reveals himself and explains everything, the Xiao San, being intelligent, will naturally feel the deep paternal love emanating from her father.

As Tang Hao thought about it, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, as if he could already imagine the way Tang San would look at him in the future.

Of course, at the same time, also watching this scene was the sixth brother, Han Li, who had been observing from the shadows.

Just like Yu Xiaogang before him, from his perspective, Tang San's Luck Power briefly reached its peak after he had plucked it bald. He could probably guess that Tang San was going to obtain his fourth Soul Ring.

This was also the moment when he had fully obtained the Blue Silver Grass Source, so naturally he wouldn't give it up.

"Is it still the Fourth Ring's been around for ten thousand years? Well, I can understand it. It's just a final celebration before the collapse of fortune."

Han Li, without any intention of disturbing them. A Fourth Ring Blue Silver Grass that had reached ten thousand years of age couldn't change anything.

He also wanted to see what changes Tang San would undergo, and how much the Bone Replacement would affect him after completely stripping away the Blue Silver Grass Source.

When Flender led Tang San to the designated location in Sunset Forest, they were greeted by a scene of Crypt Demon Spider lying haphazardly on the ground, but still alive.

"This..."

Flender looked up at the sky speechlessly. He knew Tang Hao was hiding in the shadows, but wasn't this a little too obvious?

"Tang San, pick one."

After a while, Flender dragged out several Crypt Demon Spider that met Tang San's requirements and looked at Tang San was somewhat surprised but remained calm.

"Let's choose this one."

Recalling Yu Xiaogang's previous teachings, Tang San chose the one that had just reached ten thousand years of age. As for the other two that were a thousand or two years older, he was not absolutely certain.

After all, his Martial Soul is not Beast Martial Soul, so even if his physical strength reaches the minimum threshold, it doesn't help much in the process of absorbing Soul Ring.

On the contrary, he didn't care about the soul impact that Flender had told him about absorbing the Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring on the way here. Sure enough, the teacher didn't know; this was the decision his father made.

The chosen Crypt Demon Spider was carried away by Flender, and they found a safe place Tang San to absorb it.

For these individuals, this will be a historic moment.

Tang San exhaled deeply, and inserted the poison-covered Sleeve Arrow into the eye of the unconscious Crypt Demon Spider, causing a pale black Soul Ring to appear.

After exchanging a glance with Flender, Tang San sat down cross-legged on the spot and touched the Soul Ring with his Martial Soul aura.

After three and a half hours, Tang San, covered in blood, finally succeeded in absorbing the Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring.

After smiling as he stood up and revealed his Soul Ring, he collapsed and fell into a coma. It was still too much for him at his current level, but fortunately, he succeeded.

"He truly is my son."

Tang Hao, who was hiding in the shadows, finally breathed a sigh of relief and appeared in front of Flender and Tang San. His son had broken the continent's record, something he could be proud of.

"Once we get back, we'll treat the Xiao San immediately and give him the best supplements in the next few days."

Tang Hao gave instructions to Flender, who was equally delighted.

"No problem, Your His Excellency Haotian."

Flender answered with lightning speed, his long face beaming with a smile that brought all the wrinkles together.

Although he disliked the father and son, he had no objections this time and even enjoyed it.

This is his student, the Fourth Ring of the eternal race!

Putting aside the fame that participating in the Soul Master Competition could bring him, the rewards given to him by the Heaven Dou Royal Academy alone were enough to make him smile from ear to ear.

Thank you, Yu Xiaogang! In this competition, everyone will only remember me, not you, unless Tang San and his son publicly prove it for you, but is that even possible?

At the very least, it's impossible now; the Heaven Dou Royal Academy would never agree. Flender was secretly overjoyed.

After respectfully bowing to Tang Hao, he picked up Tang San like a precious treasure and quickly flew towards the direction of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

"Gold Soul Coin, here I come!" After Tang Hao left, Han Li emerged from the shadows. He had already collected the essence of the Blue Silver Emperor.

With a strange smile, he collected some of Tang San's blood, along with some soil, left over from absorbing the Soul Ring. He planned to have it tested when he got back.

Because in his observation, Tang San's body was undergoing subtle and irreversible changes, and even he had no way of knowing what was going on. He needed to confirm what his composition was now.

A few breaths later, the spot was empty except for a mangled corpse of Crypt Demon Spider, which would be taken away as food by other Soul Beast at any time.

As time went by, Heaven Dou City gradually became more lively.

The teams from the Soul Master Academy participating in the competition arrived one after another from various places. At the same time, a large number of nobles, Soul Master, and merchants also poured in from other places or Duchies.

For them, the air in Heaven Dou City and Star Luo City was thick with the scent of Gold Soul Coin, and even many commoners had joined in. This was an opportunity for them as well.

There are only three days left until the official opening of the Soul Master Competition.

Today, it was Han Li's time to make his appearance. With Xiu'er's help, he was tidying up his crown robes, which belonged to the Spirit Hall Saint Child.

In a little while, he would have to leave the city and blend into the group coming from the Spirit Hall to accompany Xue Qinghe, the Heaven Dou Crown Prince, in a drama of brotherly love and respect.

"Alright."

Xiu'er straightened the last platinum crown for him and led him out of the room.
