Platinum Bishop Salas of the Heaven Dou Spirit Temple, who was also seated on the VIP Platform, did not lose his composure as Ning Fengzhi had.
He watched the four spirit rings-yellow, yellow, purple, and black-appearing around each of the three girls on the Spirit Fighting Platform. His gaunt old face was wreathed in smiles, as though he had expected this all along.
Listening to the gasps and discussions around him, Salas raised a hand and leisurely stroked his goatee, unable to resist thinking:
Only three Ten Thousand Year Fourth Spirit Rings. What is there to make such a fuss about? If you saw the other four team members' ten-thousand-year fourth and fifth spirit rings, wouldn't you be scared to death?
In a secluded, shadowy corner of the spectator stands, Tang Hao, his entire body concealed beneath a robe and the shadows of his hood, could not help frowning.
Although Jin Yue'er, Zhu Zhuqing, and Bai Chenxiang's Ten Thousand Year Fourth Spirit Rings had briefly shocked him, Tang Hao did not find them particularly unexpected either.
After all, Spirit Hall possessed a method of absorbing spirit rings beyond the Spirit Master Theoretical Limit. It was entirely understandable that they would select promising students with astonishing talent and cultivate them using this method.
Moreover, most of Tang Hao's attention was currently focused on Ye Lan, whom he suspected must have some connection to Ah Yin. He was rather indifferent to everything else and had no inclination to investigate other matters too deeply for now.
What truly surprised him was that the other four members of the Martial Soul Hall Second Team had not released their martial souls or spirit rings. From the look of things, they did not intend to fight.
This thwarted Tang Hao's original plan to gather more information
