When this question appeared, everyone was completely baffled.
As soon as the question appeared, nearly everyone started discussing it. Many people who knew Tang San began to think it over:
"Hey, how are we supposed to know what kind of Spirit Beast Tang San's Sixth Spirit Ring came from, or how old it was?"
"What's this supposed to mean? Not only is this one not multiple choice, there aren't even any clues? At least the last one had two options!"
"The Sixth Spirit Ring. Normally, it'd be around twenty thousand years old. But the question says Tang San can absorb Spirit Rings ahead of schedule. Could it be one that's over fifty thousand years old?"
"Holy crap, that's ridiculous! This is too hard!"
"His Fourth Spirit Ring was already ten thousand years old. It's not impossible that he got a thirty-thousand-year Spirit Ring for his Fifth, and one over fifty thousand years old for his Sixth, right?"
"That's right! With Spirit Rings, being one step ahead means you're ahead at every step! I've only just realized how huge an advantage Tang San has!"
As they discussed their answers, everyone couldn't help glancing at Tang San.
Only now did they realize just how incredible Tang San was. He'd managed to get a ten-thousand-year Spirit Ring ahead of schedule.
With that kind of foundation, absorbing Spirit Rings tens of thousands of years old later on wouldn't be difficult, would it?
Quite a few people guessed that his Sixth Spirit Ring was at least fifty thousand years old!
The Shrek Seven Devils, along with Yu Xiaogang and the others, were also busy guessing.
Tang San racked his brains, analyzing what kind of Spirit Ring he might obtain in the future.
At that moment, Dai Mubai still chose to ask Yu Xiaogang:
"Grandmaster, this is your specialty. When it comes to Spirit Master theory, we have to rely on you."
"What kind of Spirit Beast do you think Xiao San's Sixth Spirit Ring will come from, and how old will it be?"
At those words, everyone, Tang San included, turned to look at Yu Xiaogang.
Tang San asked as well, "That's right, Teacher. This is right in your wheelhouse. You should be able to figure it out, shouldn't you?"
Hearing this and feeling everyone's expectations once again, Yu Xiaogang's earlier anger finally faded. Little by little, he regained his pride and confidence.
This was exactly what Yu Xiaogang wanted:
"At last, a question in my area of expertise!"
He smiled. "Actually, this question is difficult for other people, but it's no problem for me, a Theory Master of the Spirit World."
"First, based on Xiao San's current physique and the way I'll train him in the future, I believe his Sixth Spirit Ring will be at least fifty thousand years old!"
"Probably no more than seventy thousand years, though. A seventy-thousand-year Spirit Ring is usually the Ninth Spirit Ring of a Titled Douluo. That would be too outrageous."
Everyone else nodded along, thinking that sounded about right.
Ma Hongjun couldn't help chiming in. "That's true. Third Brother said he ate an Immortal Herb that strengthened his body, so he'll definitely be able to absorb Spirit Rings much older than we can."
"Since a seventy-thousand-year Spirit Ring is usually absorbed by a Titled Douluo, it should be somewhere between fifty and seventy thousand years old."
Even Tang San couldn't help weighing it up. It did seem to make sense.
He stroked his chin, simply agreeing.
Next, Yu Xiaogang continued analyzing. "As for the kind of Spirit Beast, I guess it'll still be a Man Faced Demon Spider!"
"Don't forget the previous question. That Light Screen revealed some information just to humiliate me!"
"It said Xiao San has two Man Faced Demon Spider Spirit Rings!"
"When absorbing Spirit Rings from the same kind of Spirit Beast, the previous experience makes the next one a little easier to absorb."
"If I have Xiao San absorb a Man Faced Demon Spider Spirit Ring for his Sixth Ring in the future, it's entirely possible!"
"And judging by the pattern of the Q&A Game, the first and second questions were related, while the third was independent... So could the fourth and fifth questions be related too?"
"Taking all these factors into account, I'm certain Xiao San's Sixth Spirit Ring will probably be a sixty-thousand-year Man Faced Demon Spider!"
Yu Xiaogang lowered his voice for that last sentence, afraid the others might hear, but he spoke with such conviction that the Shrek Seven Devils and Tang San were left dumbfounded.
Everyone thought it over. It made sense!
Tang San's face lit up, and he smiled. "Teacher, you really are a master of theory!"
"Your analysis is spot-on and completely logical! You're amazing!"
Dai Mubai and the others chimed in with praise too. "A true Grandmaster!"
"Grandmaster's the best! We're sure to get this one right!"
Seeing the children admire him filled Yu Xiaogang with satisfaction once more.
He snorted. "Even if that Light Screen is targeting me, it can't hide my talent!"
Liu Erlong was even more impressed. She nestled against Yu Xiaogang and said, "Xiaogang, you're so clever."
"I shouldn't have doubted your talent and your theories earlier."
Yu Xiaogang was delighted. He stroked Liu Erlong's hair, as if he'd reached the pinnacle of his life.
Soon, the group submitted their answers. They all chose a sixty-thousand-year Man Faced Demon Spider. To be safe, a few entered a range of fifty to seventy thousand years instead.
Only Xiao Wu stood beside Tang San. Watching how excited he was, she couldn't help feeling that something was off:
"Is it really a Man Faced Demon Spider?"
"Why do I feel nervous and scared whenever they mention Xiao San's Sixth Spirit Ring?"
At a loss, she glanced at Tang San and said nothing more.
Everyone else had no idea what the answer might be, so they could only enter random guesses.
The Spirit Hall team.
Hu Liena watched Song Ye, who remained completely relaxed. She wanted to ask him again, but felt too embarrassed. After all, she was a girl.
It felt a little strange to keep approaching Song Ye, a boy.
Forget it, she decided she'd better watch for now.
So she casually entered the answer she'd guessed.
Only Song Ye entered his answer without even bothering to pay attention, yawning as he did so.
He murmured as quietly as he could:
"Maybe I'm the only one who can answer this question correctly. The others should notice something's up, and might even start paying attention to me."
"But it doesn't matter. Once I get the reward, I can keep growing stronger. And when I'm strong enough, should I still be afraid of anyone targeting me?"
After entering his answer, he waited calmly.
Beneath the Life Lake, Di Tian and the others couldn't guess either, so they made random guesses.
On the Sun Moon Continent next door, the Evil Eye Tyrant Sovereign had no idea what was going on. Thinking it was fun, he even entered his own name as the answer.
In the Extreme North, Snow Empress and Ice Empress gathered with Xiao Bai in an open area, chatting as they tried to work out the answer.
Tang Hao and Ah Yin, along with Ah Rou and the Man Faced Demon Spiders in the special space, all made random guesses...
At last, everyone had entered an answer.
The very next second, the real answer was revealed!
On the Light Screen.
[Correct answer: Hundred-Thousand-Year Soft Bone Rabbit!] [Winner: Song Ye!] [Reward: Soul Power Level increased by 5!] [The Soft Bone Rabbit is a special Spirit Beast on the Douluo Continent—common, yet uncommon. It is usually very weak, but carries a trace of fortune. Two Soft Bone Rabbits once became Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts!] [One of them has already died by this point in time! The other, a slightly younger Soft Bone Rabbit, will later become Tang San's Sixth Spirit Ring!]
As soon as the answer appeared, everyone was terrified, especially Xiao Wu, who was standing beside Tang San...
