"Such powerful attack strength."
Seeing this terrifying display of power, Yu Xiaogang could not help but exclaim in admiration.
"However, you absorbed a Spirit Ring from a Datura Snake, so why do I feel like a phantom of a dragon appeared just now?"
Ye Lin shook her head, "I don't know, I'm not sure, I don't understand."
She gave a classic "I know nothing" response.
Yu Xiaogang began to ponder.
"Could it be that a mutation occurred during the absorption process?"
"Did it cause the bloodline of the Datura Snake to evolve?"
"That is a possibility," Yu Xiaogang answered his own question, pulling out a pen and paper from somewhere to record the matter.
Ye Lin relaxed her right hand, and the Immortal Sword transformed into spirit power and entered her body.
Although the attack power of this sword strike was astonishing, the spirit power consumed was also immense; this single strike had used up a full third of her total spirit power, meaning she could only use it three times at most for now.
Since both of them had obtained their Spirit Rings, there was no need to remain in the Soul Hunting Forest, and the three of them began walking toward the exit once again.
After Tang San obtained his Spirit Ring, carrying the luggage became much easier, and he no longer needed to pant every three steps or rest every five steps as he had before.
Upon arriving at the small town outside the Soul Hunting Forest, the three of them rented a carriage to return to the Notting Academy.
This time, it could be said that Yu Xiaogang had suffered a major blow, having lost an arm, though fortunately, it did not affect his mobility.
Returning to the Notting Academy, Tang San and the others went back to Yu Xiaogang's room, while Ye Lin returned to the Seventh Dormitory for work-study students.
At this moment, there was no one else in the Seventh Dormitory; according to the time, everyone was still in class.
She sat cross-legged on her bed, opened her right hand, and a slender, small Immortal Sword spun in her palm as a yellow Spirit Ring slowly expanded beneath her.
Ye Lin took the two 500-year Spirit Ring age enhancement cards from the System Space and applied them directly to her first Spirit Ring.
The two cards transformed into a stream of light and entered the small Immortal Sword, and the purple patterns on that yellow Spirit Ring began to spread rapidly outward until they covered the entire ring, elevating it to the level of a thousand-year Spirit Ring.
Ye Lin clearly felt her physique begin to improve once again, and the improvement was far greater than when she had absorbed the Mandala Dragon Spirit Ring.
The green dragon pattern on the Immortal Sword became even clearer, and the pressure emanating from the sword grew several times stronger.
She felt that if she used her first spirit skill now, she could kill that Datura Snake instantly.
The increase in the Spirit Ring's age was also accompanied by an increase in spirit power; the most obvious feeling was that her first spirit skill, which could originally only be released three times at most, could now be released five times.
Ye Lin was now curious about what level her spirit power had reached after absorbing a Spirit Ring equivalent to nearly two thousand years.
Now, the only thing to do was to go to the Martial Soul Hall branch in Nuoding City to test her spirit power level.
She left the dormitory and walked outside.
The ringing of the bell for the end of class sounded, and the students emerging from the classrooms did not head toward the cafeteria or the dormitories, but instead moved rapidly toward the direction of the playground.
Ye Lin then remembered that, according to the original plot, the work-study students were supposed to clash with Xiao Chenyu today.
She had already told Xiao Wu to learn to be low-key, so why were they still starting a fight?
She quickly followed the students as they hurried toward the playground.
At this moment, Xiao Wu, Wang Sheng, and several other work-study students stood on one side, while Xiao Chenyu and another group of self-funded students stood on the other, the two sides confronting each other.
Xiao Chenyu looked at Xiao Wu with disdain, "Xiao Wu, as long as you become my pet rabbit, then today's matter will be treated as if it never happened."
"Hmph," Xiao Wu snorted coldly, "In your dreams! Today, I'm going to beat you until you're looking for your teeth all over the floor!"
"Did you forget what I told you? You need to be a little more low-key."
A voice suddenly rang out in Xiao Wu's ear.
A look of joy immediately appeared on Xiao Wu's face, and she quickly turned her head, "Sister Lin, you're back!"
"Sister Lin, it really isn't that I'm looking for trouble on purpose; it's just that the other side is being too overbearing!"
"Being low-key is one thing, but that doesn't mean we should be bullied forever."
"Besides, he wanted me to be his pet rabbit. If it were you, Sister Lin, could you endure that?"
Ye Lin was stunned for a moment by what was said; it seemed that was indeed the case, and this was something that could not be endured.
She muttered to herself, "If I'm too low-key, people really will think I'm easy to bully."
"Since that's the case, let's settle this once and for all today."
She looked at Xiao Chenyu, and as that gaze fell upon him, Xiao Chenyu could not help but shudder involuntarily.
He did not know why he had suddenly felt a sense of fear.
Xiao Chenyu swallowed his saliva, a bad premonition rising in his heart.
"You are their boss?"
Ye Lin said calmly, "Fight me. If you lose, you will apologize to Xiao Wu."
"Fine!" Xiao Chenyu agreed immediately; it was just an apology, nothing big.
"Xiao Chenyu, sixth-grade student, Martial Soul, Wolf. Level 11, one-ring Battle Soul Master."
He immediately activated his Martial Soul Avatar, his body transforming in various ways to resemble a wolf.
"But if you lose, you have to be my pet too!"
"Ye Lin, just an ordinary work-study student," Ye Lin said, not going into detail. "I'm in a hurry, let's just get on with it."
Xiao Chenyu's expression shifted; this was clearly a sign of disrespect toward him.
"Are you not going to release your Martial Soul?"
"Not necessary."
"Arrogant fool."
He let out a cold snort, gritted his teeth, extended his wolf claws, and lunged directly at Ye Lin.
"That girl is finished. She actually dares not to release her Martial Soul when facing the boss."
"Such disrespect."
"Don't blame the boss for being ruthless to a flower!"
Xiao Shengyu's lackeys never once considered that he might lose; they were all thinking about how badly Ye Lin would be injured.
Xiao Shengyu was holding nothing back; his claws could shatter stones with a single strike, so one could only imagine the result if they hit a person.
"It's over, Ye Lin is done for."
Wang Sheng sighed, showing a look of regret. "To stick your neck out without the strength to back it up, isn't that just foolish behavior?"
As a sixth-grade student himself, he had a clear understanding of Xiao Shengyu's strength.
"If it were Xiao Wu making a move, there might have been a chance."
Watching Ye Lin remain motionless, Xiao Wu shouted with concern, "Sister Lin, hurry and dodge!"
At this moment, she was extremely worried about Ye Lin's safety.
Finally, Ye Lin moved.
At the very instant those claws were about to land on her, she stepped in close, perfectly dodging the attack while simultaneously striking Xiao Chenyu's chest with her palm.
"Bang!"
A dull thud echoed out, and his chest instantly caved in.
Xiao Chenyu's eyes widened in utter disbelief; he hadn't even seen when Ye Lin had moved before that palm strike had already landed.
His body flew backward, slamming heavily into the ground and kicking up a large cloud of dust.
He had lost.
