Twin-Eyed GiantHead Soul Bone

While Huo Yuhao was absorbing his Soul Ring, Beibei came over to Wu Xuan. He was no longer as wary as before and casually sat down.

"Senior Beibei, is there something you need?" Wu Xuan asked casually.

"I was just a little curious about why you came to the Star Dou Great Forest. Are you here to obtain a Soul Ring too?" Beibei gave a hearty smile, his words clearly revealing his intent to probe Wu Xuan's background. Even Tang Ya, who was usually somewhat slow on the uptake, noticed it.

With her hands on her slender waist, Tang Ya smacked Beibei's shoulder irritably. "Junior Wu Xuan already voluntarily gave us the Soul Ring, and you're still interrogating him? Beibei! That's far too rude!"

"Xiaoya, you..." Beibei sighed in frustration. He opened his mouth, but ultimately said nothing.

"It's fine, Senior Tang Ya! It's only natural for Senior Beibei to have doubts. I did come to the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt a Soul Ring."

"Mm! To hunt my Third Soul Ring." Wu Xuan paused slightly before continuing.

"Third Soul Ring?! You're a Soul Elder?!" Tang Ya and Beibei exclaimed in unison.

Just as Tang Ya's eyes lit up and she was about to say something, a muffled groan suddenly rang out.

Huo Yuhao, who was fusing with the Soul Ring, seemed to have reached a critical moment. His entire body trembled uncontrollably, while dark red blood continuously seeped from his nose and mouth.

With only Rank One Innate Soul Power, he truly lacked physical talent. Not only were his meridians extremely narrow, but some areas were also very thin. As a result, when the power of the Soul Ring violently struck his meridians, the scene before them occurred.

Affected by this aura, Sky Dream Ice Silkworm in Wu Xuan's Sea of Consciousness let out a startled cry.

"Eh? This human actually has a Spirit Attribute Body Martial Soul. But his physical constitution and talent are truly terrible. Hehe, luckily I met Little Wu Xuan before. If I had followed this kid, I'd probably suffer quite a bit." With such relief in his heart, Sky Dream Ice Silkworm felt more and more that his original choice had been incredibly wise.

Beibei and Tang Ya looked at Huo Yuhao with concern. Both of them knew that when absorbing a Soul Ring, one could only rely on their own willpower to withstand the impact of its energy.

Watching Huo Yuhao suffer, Beibei and Tang Ya immediately grew anxious. However, they could not help him absorb the Soul Ring. If they forcibly interrupted him, Huo Yuhao would likely be severely injured, perhaps even lose his path as a Soul Master entirely.

Beibei knew Huo Yuhao's talent was poor, but he had not expected it to be poor to this extent. He could not even endure a Soul Ring of around three hundred years.

At that moment, a gray stream of air suddenly flashed across the sky, which had been brilliantly clear only moments before. Wu Xuan's mind went hazy for an instant. Even Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, who had been dozing in the Sea of Consciousness, jolted awake in fright.

The Mutated Soul Breaking Spear in Wu Xuan's palm shone with a silver radiance too dazzling to look at, as if it were passively protecting its master.

The gray stream of air, which had originally been moving toward Wu Xuan, hesitated. Then, amid the daze of the three of them, it made a sharp turn and silently entered the back of Huo Yuhao's head.

Huo Yuhao's previously precarious state suddenly stabilized. He completed the fusion without further danger and entered a meditative state.

"That scared me to death. I never thought Little Wu Xuan's Martial Soul could passively protect its master. Still, that fragment of a broken soul just now was truly powerful. Even so damaged, it had the strength I had at my peak." Sky Dream Ice Silkworm wiped cold sweat from his forehead, lingering fear in his voice.

Wu Xuan came back to his senses and ignored Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's chatter. From Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's description, he knew that the gray stream of air had most likely been Electrolux.

As for why the latter had not chosen him, Wu Xuan had some guesses. Although his Soul Breaking Spear was a Spirit Attribute Martial Soul, it was one with immense offensive power.

Electrolux had only a remnant soul left and could vanish at any time. If he entered Wu Xuan's Sea of Consciousness, not only would he be unable to nurture himself and recover, but he would also continuously drain away. Perhaps one day, he would exhaust his remaining foundation and disperse on his own.

"Eh! Little Yuhao has passed the dangerous stage!" Tang Ya cried out in delight.

"Strange! I keep feeling like something isn't right." Beibei frowned, seemingly deep in thought.

Wu Xuan did not feel too disappointed. He walked over to Huo Yuhao and deliberately asked Tang Ya, "Senior Tang Ya, that boy had such a difficult time absorbing the Soul Ring earlier. Is he also a new student at Shrek Academy?"

"Oh! You mean Little Yuhao? His name is Huo Yuhao. Yes, he'll be going to Shrek Academy with us. Although his Soul Power does not meet the requirements right now, our Tang Sect has one quota every year that allows someone to enter Shrek Academy without taking the exam."

After speaking, Tang Ya smiled and moved a little closer to Wu Xuan. "So? So? Isn't our Tang Sect amazing? Do you want to consider joining the Tang Sect?" Tang Ya looked at Wu Xuan expectantly.

Wu Xuan shook his head and refused. "Senior Tang Ya, sorry! My original plan was to test into Shrek Academy's Inner Court, so I'm not considering joining a sect for now."

Beibei, whose peripheral vision had remained on Wu Xuan and Tang Ya, could not help nodding slightly when he saw this. He walked over to Tang Ya and said, "Xiaoya, since Junior Wu Xuan has such aspirations, let's leave the matter at that."

"Mm! I didn't have much hope to begin with. The Tang Sect has already declined to this state." Tang Ya stuck out her little tongue, but a trace of dejection could not be hidden in her beautiful eyes.

Another two hours passed before Huo Yuhao finally woke from meditation.

A faint golden radiance appeared in his deep blue eyes, and a bright yellow Soul Ring rose from beneath his feet. The excitement in his heart surged forth uncontrollably. "I succeeded! I finally became a true Soul Master!"

However, when he saw Wu Xuan and the other two watching him, he finally came back to his senses and lowered his head somewhat awkwardly.

"Senior Disciple Brother, Teacher Xiaoya, thank you."

"Yuhao, actually, the person you should thank even more is Junior Wu Xuan," Beibei said with a gentle smile.

Tang Ya chimed in from the side, "That's right, Little Yuhao. Twin-Eyed Giants are very rare Soul Beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest. If it weren't for Junior Wu Xuan, you might not have obtained such a good Soul Ring this time."

"Thank you, Brother Wu Xuan!" Huo Yuhao bowed.

"You're welcome."

Wu Xuan smiled and waved his hand. "I heard from Senior Beibei and Senior Tang Ya that you're also a new student at Shrek Academy this year. Maybe we'll even become classmates in the future."

"Y-you, hello. My name is Huo Yuhao. Please take care of me in the future." Huo Yuhao hurriedly responded, his face full of excitement.

"Yuhao! Now that you're a Soul Master, you need to learn to adapt. The first thing a Soul Master must learn is how to dissect a Soul Beast corpse alone. Come with me. I'll demonstrate it once for you." Beibei looked at Huo Yuhao with a rather serious expression.

Huo Yuhao nodded heavily and followed Beibei toward the Twin-Eyed Giant's corpse.

Wu Xuan watched the two of them and sighed softly. Beibei truly was a conscientious Senior Disciple Brother.

Tang Ya tilted her head and looked at Wu Xuan beside her. "Junior Wu Xuan, we came to the Star Dou Great Forest this time to hunt Soul Beasts and obtain a Soul Ring for me. If you don't mind, you can travel with us. Once I obtain my Soul Ring, I'll take you and Yuhao to register at Shrek Academy together."

"Mm! Sure!" Wu Xuan thought for a moment before agreeing. There were still several days before Shrek Academy's registration period anyway. Going to Shrek City so early would not be very interesting.

"A Soul Bone!" Beibei suddenly exclaimed from nearby.

Tang Ya covered her little mouth, her face filled with disbelief. "A Head Soul Bone? Can a Hundred-Year Soul Beast really produce a Head Soul Bone?"

Wu Xuan turned to look. Huo Yuhao stood there with a blank expression, holding a light gray skull-shaped Soul Bone. Wu Xuan could not help sighing inwardly. As expected of Huo Yuhao—he could dig up a Soul Bone even from a Soul Beast at this level of cultivation.

Electrolux appears in almost every fanfic. I want to write one without him.

In this book, Electrolux will initially follow Huo Yuhao, but he will leave Huo Yuhao later on.

The protagonist will also come into contact with Electrolux later and learn a little magic from him, but that will be all. There will be nothing more.

Borrowing something Tang Buddha Ancestor did: I kill Soul Beasts to obtain Soul Rings, so I am righteous. Those three Thousand Jun Ant Emperors dared to slaughter other Soul Beasts—they simply had a death wish.

I can use necromancy, yet Evil Soul Masters are not allowed to use Evil Soul Master methods. How is that any different from Tang Buddha Ancestor?!

At least in the eyes of the Douluo natives, necromancy is the power of Evil Soul Masters.

I plan to focus mainly on Soul Skills and write out every Soul Skill. The Soul Breaking Spear will have at least eighteen Soul Skills.

The Wind Element Martial Soul's Self-Created Soul Skills, plus its Soul Ring Soul Skills, will total no fewer than twenty.

The protagonist has two Martial Souls, plus the Soul Skills of a full set of Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bones. With so many Soul Skills already, there is no need at all to use necromancy.

What would even be the point of a Douluo fanfic if it did not write Soul Skills?
