A thousand-year Spirit Ring?

Brilliant purple...

Tang San, Xiao Wu, and Xiao Chenyu were all stunned.

A sixteenth-level Spirit Master, with a thousand-year Spirit Ring as his first Spirit Ring?

The three of them stared as the purple Spirit Ring rose from beneath Wang Feng's feet, as if they were dreaming. For them, this was simply unimaginable!

Especially Tang San!

"My teacher said that the maximum age for a Soul Master's first Spirit Ring is four hundred and twenty-three years. If it exceeds that, the Soul Master won't be able to withstand the power brought by the Spirit Ring... That's the limit! But how could Brother Feng have a thousand-year Spirit Ring?"

Tang San was utterly confused.

A thousand-year Spirit Ring was at least more than twice the age of four hundred and twenty-three years. And from the deep color of Brother Feng's purple Spirit Ring, it seemed it wasn't just any ordinary thousand-year Spirit Ring!

Soul Beasts like that were extremely rare in the Soul Hunting Forest. And even a Soul Elder might not be able to hunt a thousand-year Soul Beast, right?

How had Brother Feng done it?

Tang San had originally thought that Brother Feng's physical constitution was extremely strong, and that even if he absorbed a Spirit Ring older than four hundred and twenty-three years, it might still be possible.

But a thousand years was far too outrageous!

According to his teacher's research into Martial Spirits, Soul Masters could only choose a thousand-year Spirit Ring for their third Spirit Ring!

"A thousand years?" A flicker of astonishment passed through Xiao Wu's eyes. But she didn't say anything, only watched.

"Wang Laoda... My heavens, a thousand-year Spirit Ring! How did you get it?"

Xiao Chenyu stared at Wang Feng, his face flushed.

The whole of Notting City might not have more than a few people with thousand-year Spirit Rings.

The academy's dean seemed to be level forty, so he should have a thousand-year Spirit Ring. Ma Xiunuo of Spirit Hall was only a Soul Grandmaster and wasn't even level thirty, so he didn't have a thousand-year Spirit Ring.

Tang San also looked at Wang Feng, very curious about how he had gotten this thousand-year Spirit Ring.

"Hahaha..."

Looking at their even more astonished expressions, Wang Feng thought, Looks like I really nailed that display.

A thousand-year Spirit Ring was one of his goals as his strength increased, but without showing off, it would have been utterly meaningless...

"Well, this thousand-year Spirit Ring came down to good luck."

Wang Feng coughed twice and said, "I happened to encounter two thousand-year Soul Beasts fighting in the Soul Hunting Forest. When they were both badly injured, I took the opportunity to hunt one of them. I just picked up what was lying around..."

Most of what Wang Feng said was true. Two thousand-year Soul Beasts really had been fighting.

He had only concealed the Star-Moon Fox, and the fact that he had secretly used the Golden Lotus's power to help.

Otherwise, there was no way he could have hunted that six-thousand-year Golden Light Thunder Leopard!

But when the three heard Wang Feng's explanation, they fell silent.

"Brother Feng... You're way too lucky!" Tang San couldn't help sighing.

He felt that being able to hunt that four-hundred-year-old Datura Snake had already been incredibly good luck.

Two thousand-year Soul Beasts had been badly injured fighting each other! Brother Feng had reaped the benefits as the fisherman!

However, Tang San knew that Brother Feng must have other secrets. Otherwise, he would never have been able to absorb this thousand-year Spirit Ring.

But Tang San didn't ask any further. Everyone had secrets. Brother Feng had his, Xiao Wu had hers, and he had his own. Even his father had secrets. There was no need to pry into them.

"People really can drive you mad by comparison. Hmph."

Xiao Wu gave a slightly envious snort.

"A thousand years... Conservatively, that's equal to a hundred of my ten-year Spirit Rings. In other words, Wang Laoda is equivalent to a hundred of me."

Xiao Chenyu looked up at the sky, thinking to himself that there probably weren't many people in Notting City who could hunt a thousand-year Soul Beast. What Wang Laoda had said should be true, but his luck was just too outrageous!

"Wait..." Xiao Chenyu seemed to remember something and continued, "Wang Laoda, did you just say you're an Auxiliary Tool Soul Spirit Master?"

If he hadn't misheard.

Tang San and Xiao Wu also hurriedly recalled it.

"That's right. I'm an Auxiliary Tool Soul Spirit Master."

Wang Feng knew the three of them probably had their suspicions, but he didn't say much more.

Xiao Chenyu looked at the shattered boulder at the other end, pointed at it, and said helplessly, "Wang Laoda, are you sure you're an auxiliary-type Soul Master?"

With a punch like that, even I, a Battle Soul Master, would probably collapse on the spot.

And now you're telling me you're an auxiliary-type Tool Soul Spirit Master?

"Of course."

Wang Feng smiled. The Golden Lotus in his hand slowly turned, and strands of golden light instantly enveloped the three of them!

The next moment!

Tang San felt the empty Soul Power inside him, like withered grass soaked by spring rain, receiving ample nourishment and quickly recovering!

His exhaustion from earlier vanished completely!

"Our Soul Power is recovering so fast!" Xiao Wu said in surprise. "It'll probably be completely restored in no time!"

They had just been fighting for more than half an hour!

"Your Soul Power is far lower than mine. Of course it recovers faster."

Wang Feng explained.

Besides, I've only used a tiny bit of the Golden Lotus's power, just enough to restore your Soul Power.

Wang Feng thought to himself, I haven't even used my Divinization skill. There's no need. And I haven't used the Golden Lotus's ability to heal injuries either. As for the reason...

"So it really is an auxiliary-type Martial Spirit..." Tang San looked at the Golden Lotus. Seeing the lightning flickering around it, he had a vague feeling that it might do more than just restore Soul Power.

"What an amazing recovery ability!" Xiao Chenyu exclaimed in shock.

All three of their Soul Power had been completely restored!

And judging by Wang Laoda's appearance, he didn't seem to have used up much at all!

But when he remembered Wang Laoda had said he was level sixteen, it made sense.

"Xiao San, hurry and carry me back. My Soul Power has recovered, but my foot is still injured. You've got your strength back, too!"

Xiao Wu said sweetly.

"Okay!"

Tang San nodded. With Soul Power, it seemed even his spirits had recovered somewhat; he was full of strength. Carrying Xiao Wu back was naturally no problem!

Seeing this, Wang Feng laughed to himself. He could actually heal Xiao Wu's injury.

But then Xiao San wouldn't get the chance to show his care. Xiao San, big brother can only help you two this way. You're going to fall in love anyway, so I might as well give you a hand ahead of time.

Tang San carried Xiao Wu back to the academy first, while Wang Feng chose to go to Spirit Hall first to register as a Soul Master and have his Soul Power tested.

Because he had compressed and refined his Soul Power, Wang Feng wasn't sure exactly how much Soul Power he had inside him.

Level sixteen was only a number Wang Feng had estimated himself.

As soon as he walked into Spirit Hall, he heard several voices:

"Su Yuntao, where's the Token? Don't tell me you gave it to that child? If you gave it to him, how are you going to accompany my younger brother to the Soul Hunting Forest to hunt Soul Beasts today? Applying for a replacement would take several days. If he used it in the Soul Hunting Forest and dropped it there, we'd have to spend several days looking for it! Honestly, are you stupid? A child with a Trash Martial Spirit says he wants to hunt a Soul Beast, and you actually believe him?"

Inside Spirit Hall, a beautiful-looking woman was scolding Su Yuntao, her expression displeased.

Su Yuntao repeatedly apologized to the woman, his manner ingratiating as he said, "Si Si, don't worry. I'll borrow a friend's Token later. The main thing is, Spirit Hall has rules. He has Innate Full Soul Power, so he really does need a Spirit Ring to break through to the next level. That's why I gave him the Token."
