In the blink of an eye, another year had passed.

Ever since Xiao Zhan had been defeated last time, he had never caused trouble again and had acknowledged Li Fei as his boss.

The students under him who had been defeated did the same.

After all, they had all been thoroughly beaten. Deep down, they feared and respected Li Fei.

Just like that, Li Fei became the student leader of the entire Notting City Primary Soul Master Academy.

Too lazy to manage them, Li Fei announced that he was entering seclusion and forbade anyone from making a move against the Work-Study Students. Then he remained in the academy's Back Mountain Forest, cultivating tirelessly day after day.

Your diligence astonished the students, teachers, and even the headmaster.

Thus, Li Fei became the role model of the entire Notting Elementary Soul Master Academy.

Everyone else also cultivated diligently.

In the forest at the back mountain.

It was still the same spot.

After a year of cultivation, his Soul Power had increased.

The Yin Yang Willow was larger and lusher than it had been a year ago.

Various Elemental Powers had also appeared on its branches.

Yin, yang, metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, lightning, ice, snow, light, darkness...

A year of deduction had allowed him to completely master every type of element in the world.

Although some had only appeared recently and were still very weak, he could still be considered to have mastered them.

The Yin Yang Two Forces were indeed useful.

Besides that, Li Fei had also deduced various Self-Created Soul Skills.

As merely a One Ring Soul Master, he had mastered no fewer than ten Self-Created Soul Skills!

He was terrifyingly strong now!

With all his methods unleashed and the Yin Yang Willow's powerful sustained recovery, he could even kill a Three Ring Soul Elder!

Li Fei slowly opened his eyes.

He reined in the Soul Power fluctuations emanating from his body.

He stood up and casually stretched his body.

"After a year of cultivation, my Soul Power has finally broken through to Level Twenty."

"An eight-year-old Level Twenty Soul Grandmaster... perhaps only Qian Renxue, who would be favored by the Angel God in the future, could achieve that."

Li Fei clenched his fist and smiled in satisfaction.

Two years ago, when his martial soul had just awakened, he had thought he was hopeless.

He had believed it would take many years even to break through Level Ten and become a One Ring Soul Master.

But unexpectedly, it had taken only one year to break through.

Moreover, over the past year, he had practically neither eaten nor drunk, cultivating arduously twenty-four hours a day.

Then, after obtaining the Yin Yang Flower as his First Soul Ring, he had become completely unstoppable and soared to new heights.

After another year, he had broken through Level Twenty and become a Soul Grandmaster.

"Once I hunt my Second Soul Ring, I can apply to graduate. Then I'll go to Plant Academy."

"That is where I belong most."

Li Fei looked into the distance, his eyes filled with anticipation for this world.

The next second, the Soul Power within his body slowly began to circulate.

A gust of wind gathered around his feet and body.

His body slowly rose into the air.

After mastering the Wind Element, he could briefly hover in the air and experience the sensation of slowly flying at low altitude.

As long as his mastery of the Wind Element reached perfection in the future, he would be able to fly at high speed through the skies even without wings or the strength of a Title Douluo!

No man could resist the temptation of soaring through the sky.

He was no exception.

He still longed for the sky greatly.

He slowly increased the gathered Wind Elemental Power, raising himself higher and higher until he gradually rose above the entire Back Mountain Forest.

When he stood atop the highest branch, the entire Notting Elementary Soul Master Academy lay within his sight, visible at a glance!

"The scenery from high above really is beautiful." Li Fei took a deep breath of the natural air, then slowly flew forward.

He eventually stopped outside the forest and landed.

Although his Soul Power Consumption was considerable at that moment, the Yin Yang Soul Core, a power bank that had stored a year's worth of Soul Power, quickly replenished it.

He arrived at the dormitory.

Wang Hu and the others were cultivating in the open space.

"Brother Li, you're out of seclusion!"

When Wang Hu saw Li Fei, his eyes lit up, and he immediately ran over to him.

Li Fei said, "Yes. I've broken through to Level Twenty. Once I obtain my Second Soul Ring, I plan to apply for graduation."

"You reached Level Twenty in just one year? As expected of Brother Li! That's incredible!"

"Where do you plan to go after graduation?"

Hearing that Li Fei was leaving, Wang Hu felt somewhat disappointed. But he also understood that Notting City was too small to hold a great tiger like Brother Li.

"Plant Academy."

"That place suits me best."

"Over the past year, have you broken through Level Ten yet?"

Li Fei asked curiously.

"Brother Li, soon! My Soul Power has already reached Level Nine!"

"But I'm not as amazing as you, Brother Li. It'll still take quite some time for me to break through Level Ten."

Wang Hu spoke somewhat dejectedly.

Li Fei was also taken aback. Right.

Not everyone could advance as quickly as he did.

Most people were just ordinary people.

Generally speaking, it took an extremely long time to raise one's Soul Power by one level.

Li Fei said, "It's alright. Work hard and break through Level Ten. When the time comes, I'll have the headmaster look after you and hunt a Soul Beast around Hundred Years old for your First Soul Ring."

"Really!? Thank You, Brother Li!"

Wang Hu's eyes shone.

If he followed only the teachers' group to hunt one, he would usually get a Soul Ring of around ten years, or at most a few decades.

If he could hunt a hundred-year Soul Beast for his First Soul Ring, his future potential would be much greater.

Thus, he was sincerely grateful to Li Fei.

"Mm."

Li Fei nodded.

He then went alone to the Headmaster Office.

The headmaster was still the same as ever, reviewing documents.

Being the headmaster of this academy apparently was not as easy as it seemed.

At his age, he had already missed the best years for cultivation. A Four Ring Soul Ancestor was likely the limit of his potential, and it would be difficult for him to break through to become a Five Ring Soul King, so he had stopped cultivating long ago.

Besides, his current life was quite comfortable, and he could not be bothered to cultivate anymore.

He went to work during the day and returned home to a warm bed at night.

"Headmaster." As soon as he entered, Li Fei greeted him first.

"Li Fei? You cultivation maniac, you've finally come to see me."

The headmaster could not help feeling sentimental, having not seen Li Fei for a year.

Although he occasionally watched Li Fei cultivate from afar, it did not feel the same as meeting face-to-face.

"My Soul Power has broken through Level Twenty. I would like to ask you to make a move and help me hunt my Second Soul Ring!"

"These twenty Gold Soul Coins are what I've saved over the past two years. I won't let you work for nothing, Headmaster."

Li Fei understood social etiquette as well. The headmaster was neither family nor friend, so helping him obtain his First Soul Ring had already been generous. The Second Soul Ring would be of a higher age.

Although he had spent practically the entire year cultivating, he still made time each month to collect one Gold Soul Coin in subsidies from Spirit Hall.

Moreover, Heaven and Earth Energy and photosynthesis replenished him while he cultivated, so he did not need to eat, drink, or relieve himself at all. That was how he had saved so much money.

"In one year, you broke through to Level Twenty. This Cultivation Speed is unprecedented and will never be surpassed!"

"Take back those twenty Gold Soul Coins! I won't take your money. What do you take me for?"

"You are the most outstanding, exceptional, and hardworking genius student our Notting Elementary Soul Master Academy has produced since its founding! The academy will hunt your Second Soul Ring for free!"

The headmaster waved his hand and said with a smile.

The main reason was that Li Fei's talent was so remarkable.

As long as he did not die young, his future would be limitless.

By refusing the money now, he was also making Li Fei owe him and the academy a favor.

If there was ever something they needed in the future, they could ask him for help.

To a Four Ring Soul Ancestor like him, twenty Gold Soul Coins were nothing.

It was better to exchange them for the favor of a young genius!
