Shui Bing'er could be said to have been Ye Wen's first friend in the Douluo human world.
Ye Wen, in Humanoid Form, was already seven years old, and his Soul Power had reached the peak of level 19. At most, he would break through to level 20 within a week.
Evil Tiger and Xiao Bai's Soul Power had also reached the peak of level 18.
The three of them were only seven years old, yet all were already close to becoming two-ring Soul Masters. Such talent left all the female students at Skywater Academy far behind, and it also filled the Dean and Shui Xiuzhen with incomparable excitement.
Geniuses!
Absolute geniuses!
With them participating in the future Soul Master Tournament, our Skywater Academy might really be able to win the championship!
The Dean and Teacher Shui Xiuzhen had already begun envisioning Skywater Academy's glorious future.
"Rising nearly six levels of Soul Power in one year isn't as fast as I imagined! Still, it's not bad." Ye Wen shrugged and continued absorbing Soul Power to cultivate. During this period, he planned to go all out and break through to level 20.
Soon, six days passed.
A burst of Soul Power erupted from Ye Wen's body. Afterward, a massive amount of Soul Power began gathering within him. He slowly opened his eyes and gently clenched his fist. "Not bad. I'm finally level 20. The Soul Power at level 20 really is much more substantial than it was at level 19!"
He smiled and immediately found Teacher Shui Xiuzhen to tell her that he was going out of the academy to obtain a Soul Ring.
Shui Xiuzhen had already learned of Scott's existence, so she also knew that Scott would take him to obtain his Soul Ring. Thus, she let Ye Wen go by himself.
After leaving the academy, Ye Wen found Scott and condensed his Soul Ring there.
He immediately sat cross-legged and began condensing his second Soul Ring. What appeared first was a white Soul Ring, but its color soon changed to yellow, then purple!
The purple had already begun faintly turning black!
In the end, it remained purple!
Eight thousand years!
Ye Wen's second Soul Ring had an eight-thousand-year age!
His Soul Power also surged during the process: level 21, level 22, level 23, level 24!
His Soul Power surged by four levels!
Seven years old and level 24 Soul Power—this was enough to shock the entire Soul Master World!
Terror Knight Scott, who was standing nearby, was already dumbfounded. He stared blankly for a while before saying, "Master, your second Soul Ring has already reached eight thousand years. Even a Soul Beast undergoing transformation couldn't be this awesome, right?"
"Four levels. That's good enough."
Ye Wen was fairly satisfied. He began examining the Second Soul Skill he had just obtained. It was unexpectedly a weapon-summoning Soul Skill, which surprised him somewhat, because Soul Skills of this type were extremely rare.
Tang San's Fifth Soul Skill, Blue Silver Overlord Spear, was one example.
Soul Skills of this type could throw the summoned weapon, producing terrifying destructive power. However, they could also be used in the hand like ordinary weapons.
Ye Wen's Second Soul Skill was called Deep Sea Demonic Hammer. It summoned a deep-blue hammer engraved with the patterns of his Deep Sea Demonic Whale. It could be thrown at an enemy, smashing into them with tremendous force and producing an explosive effect.
It could also be wielded in his hand. When the hammer struck an enemy, it would not only unleash overwhelming force but also produce explosive power.
It was terrifying. With Deep Sea Demonic Hammer, he was far more ferocious than when he attacked people with his fists!
"Not bad. After obtaining my second Soul Ring, my strength has become considerably greater." Ye Wen nodded, then walked alone into a room and took out an Immortal Herb.
The Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and Infernal Delicate Apricot he had absorbed earlier were Immortal Herbs that strengthened the body. They did not have the effects of consolidating one's foundation, improving one's aptitude, or increasing one's Soul Power.
This herb, however, could increase Soul Power. The reason he had not absorbed it all this time was that he had been waiting for his Soul Power to reach level 20 and for him to condense his second Soul Ring.
Absorbing it afterward would allow him to maximize the increase in his Soul Power.
This Immortal Herb was called Ghost Orchid Fragrant Grass. Among all the Immortal Herbs, it was the one Ye Wen had found most suitable for himself.
Now, he was going to absorb it!
"Come on. Let's see how many levels you can raise my Soul Power." Ye Wen was somewhat expectant, and then absorbed it in one go.
His Soul Power began surging once again.
Level 24!
Level 25!
Level 26!
Level 27!
Level 28!
Level 29!
His Soul Power rose six levels in succession once more!
In just one day, Ye Wen had gone from absorbing a Soul Ring at level 20 to absorbing an Immortal Herb, raising his Soul Power by nine levels in a single day!
Seven years old and level 29!
"Level 29... That's truly a little fierce." Ye Wen could not help feeling excited. Rising nine levels in one day was practically like having a cheat activated. Who would dare imagine such a thing?
Ye Wen himself found it astonishing. Feeling the strength in his current body, he speculated, "With my current level, combined with External Soul Bone Golden Eagle Wings, Divine Slaughter's Domain, and my innate Soul Bones, killing a Soul King shouldn't be a problem, right?"
He could not help sighing. "Humans really do improve their strength far too quickly. Ever since I underwent Soul Beast transformation and came to the human world, only one year has passed, yet I've already reached this level."
"If a Soul Beast wanted to cultivate to this level of strength, it would be absolutely impossible without roughly a thousand years, right?"
"Humans truly are the darlings of heaven. Perhaps if I continue cultivating in Humanoid Form, I won't even need a hundred years to reach the strength of my Deep Sea Demonic Whale King true body." Ye Wen's expression was filled with longing.
A hundred years was merely a general estimate. It might be even faster.
He knew that Tang San and the others, as well as Qian Renxue, who possessed a God-tier trial, had become gods in their twenties or thirties.
However, things were different for him. He did not possess a God-tier trial. Without a divine trial, reaching level 99 before the age of thirty was practically impossible.
"Now, my Second Soul Skill is Deep Sea Demonic Hammer. A hammer is precisely the weapon I'm best at using."
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Ye Wen swung Deep Sea Demonic Hammer twice. Despite being only seven years old, his hammer technique seemed to have already reached its peak. His use of the hammer was as natural as fire, as though it were a part of his body.
This undoubtedly further increased his strength.
"Right. With a human body, I might also be able to use the hammer techniques and secret techniques I developed in my Deep Sea Demonic Whale King true body!" Ye Wen suddenly thought of this, and his eyes lit up.
The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King was a top-tier hammer expert. In fact, he had his own hammer technique, as well as three secret techniques related to hammer techniques.
Thunder Hammer Technique!
As well as two secret hammer techniques: the Eight-Edged Overlord Hammer, which he had used to hammer Tang Hao last time, and the Deep Sea Demonic Dragon Hammer, which he had never used before.
He had used Thunder Hammer Technique when fighting the Slaughter King.
It seemed as though he was wildly hammering his enemy without any pattern, but in reality, every hammer he swung left invisible lightning-attributed energy lingering in the air.
Using the residual lightning-attributed energy, he wove a massive lightning net. Once the lightning net took shape, the enemy could not escape its range. If they tried to force their way through, they would be struck by lightning.
Within this massive lightning net, he could instantly condense terrifying lightning power and smash it toward his enemy with a single hammer.
This was Thunder Hammer Technique.
As for the two secret techniques, Eight-Edged Plum Blossom Hammer and Deep Sea Demonic Dragon Hammer, both were powerful offensive techniques—attacks that truly belonged to the realm of pure force.
Eight-Edged Plum Blossom Hammer used special methods of exerting force, angles, techniques, methods of mobilization, methods of release, and various other precise processes and details. Finally, combined with dual water and lightning attributes and the compression created by instantly pouring in Soul Power, it formed an overbearing secret hammer technique.
