You were out for one month, not a year!

This wasn't to say that the main body's martial soul, incarnated as Ji Ming, had lost its death attribute.

It was just that his death attribute had become more restrained.

Rather, the Necromancer's Heavy Eyes, which had already undergone a secondary silver awakening, had now reached a higher level.

The substantial increase in spiritual power meant that the limit of soul rings that the incarnated Ji Ming could withstand had soared once more.

Lu Lin stood in the distance with a smile, quietly watching Si Yuan Ye, Nan Yunheng, and the other two disciples.

To them, he was ultimately an outsider.

It wouldn't be appropriate for him to intrude.

Meanwhile, on the main body's side, his Soul Power Level was 26, and his Innate Soul Power Level was Ten.

It could be described as a complete transformation. The Pure Fire Green Lotus martial soul had even gained the characteristics of the Aromatic Silk Beauty.

In terms of results, this trip had been quite fruitful.

It had even far exceeded Lu Lin's expectations.

For Lu Lin, who was focused on other Immortal Grade plant-type soul beasts, they were not of much use for the time being.

However, if he couldn't find suitable soul rings later on.

He might come back and use one of the Ninety Thousand Years Immortal Grade plant-type soul beasts as a soul ring.

But that wasn't something he, who only had two rings now, could consider.

What a pity. If he had transmigrated to the Absolute Tang Dynasty era, these Immortal Grade soul beasts would have evolved into true Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts, making the current lineup even stronger.

However, if he had come at that time, he might not have been able to scheme for the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eyes.

Or perhaps, he wouldn't have had the Incarnation Game cheat in the first place...

Lu Lin's eyes flickered, and then he cast these thoughts aside.

Shrek Academy.

Qin He sat at the academy entrance, feeling somewhat bored.

That kid Lu Lin had left the academy for almost One Month.

He was supposedly out to obtain soul rings, but Qin He couldn't fathom why Lu Lin would be gone for so long.

For ordinary students, obtaining their first soul ring took a few days at most, or half a month at the slowest.

This guy, he was completely out of touch for a full month.

There shouldn't be any accidents, right?

Just as Qin He was thinking this, a figure in a blue robe, looking a bit thin, suddenly appeared at the main entrance of the academy.

Qin He looked closely. If it wasn't Lu Lin, who else could it be?

Qin He was secretly delighted and quickly walked towards Lu Lin's location. "Lu Lin, you brat, you're finally back."

Seeing Qin He, Lu Lin was also slightly stunned.

He hadn't expected that the first person he'd see upon returning would be Qin He.

After being away for a month and returning to Shrek Academy, Lu Lin felt as if a lifetime had passed.

Even he couldn't have imagined that his trip would take so long.

"Yeah, I'm back. Why are you here?"

Qin He shrugged.

"Nothing to do, but you were gone for so long, I thought something had happened to you."

Lu Lin heard this and smiled, looking at Qin He.

"What could happen to me? It just took some time to travel."

Lu Lin finished speaking and paused again. "By the way, is Teacher Xiao in the office?"

Returning to school, he had to inform Xiao Jin.

"He is. I'll go with you."

Qin He replied, then looked Lu Lin up and down, and suddenly let out a soft sound of surprise.

After not seeing him for more than twenty days, Lu Lin seemed to have grown a bit taller.

Most importantly, he noticed that Lu Lin's aura seemed to have changed.

Although his appearance hadn't changed at all, he now possessed a gentle, restrained composure.

If he had to describe it, it was like he had gained an innate nobility, just like Dai Xichen.

Qin He scratched his head. How could such a change occur?

He remembered Lu Lin saying before that he grew up in an Orphanage.

"By the way, Lu Lin, are you already a Rank 20 now? What's your soul power level?"

Qin He asked with a bit of curiosity.

Lu Lin smiled a little shyly upon hearing this:

"Now... it should be the same as yours."

"Oh, about the same as me... What!!"

Qin He and Lu Lin walked towards Xiao Jin's office.

He had only asked casually and, upon hearing Lu Lin's reply, responded subconsciously. But halfway through, he suddenly realized.

He immediately stopped in his tracks, his eyes widening like copper bells!!

What did he mean, "the same as him"?

He was Level 26 now!

If he remembered correctly, when Lu Lin first enrolled, his Soul Power Level was only Level 17!!

Yet, less than a month after school started, about twenty days, Lu Lin went to ask Xiao Jin for leave and went out to obtain his Second Soul Ring!

In twenty days, his Soul Power Level jumped three levels.

Qin He didn't know how Lu Lin managed it.

Because during the entrance exam, Lu Lin's Innate Soul Power was only Level 4!!

Such an outrageous cultivation speed, even he couldn't achieve it.

Who was the one with Innate Soul Power Level 9!!

"You're saying you're Level 26 now?"

"That's impossible!!"

"You were only gone for a month, not a year!!"

Lu Lin smiled slightly, not directly responding, not even slowing his pace.

Qin He stood there stunned for a moment. Seeing Lu Lin walking away, he quickly caught up.

From his understanding of Lu Lin, Lu Lin didn't seem like someone who would speak without basis.

But jumping six levels in a month was too incredible.

Qin He scratched his head and quickened his pace, catching up to Lu Lin.

Meanwhile, in Xiao Jin's office.

Xiao Jin tapped his fingers lightly on the desk, a troubled expression on his face.

Lu Lin had been gone for One Month, and Xiao Jin was naturally a little worried.

With Evil Soul Masters running rampant nowadays, the continent was actually quite unstable.

Although Lu Lin had Shrek as a name, serving as a protective charm.

It still couldn't guarantee that accidents wouldn't happen.

Xiao Jin was somewhat annoyed. He should have arranged for a senior student to accompany Lu Lin back then.

That would have provided some support.

If Lu Lin didn't return in a few more days, Xiao Jin would have to consider reporting it to the academy and going out to search for him.

If Lu Lin truly encountered an accident, it would be his dereliction of duty as the homeroom teacher.

Just then, Xiao Jin suddenly heard a knock on the door.

Without looking up, Xiao Jin subconsciously said, "Come in."

As the words fell, the office door was pushed open.

Two figures entered, one after the other. They were Lu Lin and Qin He.

Xiao Jin was slightly stunned. His gaze fell on Lu Lin, and he frowned:

"You're back. Hmm, why did you take so long?"

Seeing Lu Lin return safe and sound, Xiao Jin felt a sense of relief.

However, he was thinking that in the future, students should not be allowed to go out alone.

At least students below the third ring should not be allowed to go out alone.

Lu Lin showed some apology on his face:

"I was delayed on the road for some time, Teacher Xiao. I'll be more careful in the future."

Still thinking about a next time?

Xiao Jin silently rolled his eyes. Just as he was about to verbally criticize Lu Lin, he heard Lu Lin say:

"Um, Teacher, I'm Level 26 now."

"And, my martial soul seems to be showing signs of evolution."

Level 26?

Martial Soul Evolution??

Upon hearing this, Xiao Jin was stunned, and a thought flashed through his mind—Are you kidding me?

How could someone directly jump six levels after absorbing a spirit ring?!

Was he sacrificed by a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast?

The next moment, he saw Lu Lin gently raise his right hand, the Azure Lotus Martial Soul floating quietly in his palm.

At the same time, two spirit rings appeared on his body.

One Yellow, One Purple.

His pupils immediately contracted, as if he had seen a ghost in broad daylight.
