They were all very happy, but Gu Yuena's glass-like eyes stared straight at Xia Linyuan, as if he wanted to eat him.
This is already the second time Xia Linyuan has killed her people in front of her.
If it had been another Spirit Beast, she wouldn't have said anything, but this time it was Titan Ape! Titan Ape!
Although Titan Ape is not as good as Titan Giant Ape and Titan Snow Demon, as long as it grows up, it is still a good fighting force! Xia Linyuan actually killed it like this!
Gu Yuena suddenly felt extremely suffocated, and his beautiful eyes were full of sadness.
Xia Linyuan naturally noticed the look in Gu Yuena's eyes, but he simply ignored it.
"Okay, you guy." Wang Dong touched Xia Linyuan's arm with his elbow, "The fourth Spirit Ring is Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring, better than me and Wulin Second Soul Ring is much better than Thousand-Year Soul Ring." Apparently, she had put behind her the unpleasantness with Xia Linyuan in the morning.
Just when Xia Linyuan was about to say something, several figures suddenly rushed out from the side door next to Great Soul Arena's animal enclosure.
"Which little brat killed the five-thousand-year-old Titan Ape that I worked so hard to capture? Stand up for me!" the red-haired old man at the head yelled angrily.
He just went out to discuss with his partners the food for his little cuties in the next few years. When he came back, he saw that Titan Ape, which he had been guarding for three days and three nights with great difficulty, had been killed. How could Gong Changlong not be angry?
Hearing this, everyone looked at Xia Linyuan who was surrounded by the crowd.
Noticing their little actions, how could Gongchang Wei not know that the culprit was Xia Linyuan, but seeing that Xia Linyuan looked like he was only thirteen or fourteen years old, he couldn't help but fall into deep self-doubt.
A thirteen-year-old child, no matter how talented he is, is only at the Soul Elder level, right? How could a little Soul Elder kill a five-thousand-year-old Titan Ape? Even the top Martial Soul can't do it, right?
"Mr. Gong?" Du Weilun on the high platform was shocked when he saw Gong Changlong. He hurried down to the Colosseum and explained with a wry smile, "That's it..."
"Thirteen-year-old Soul Ancestor? The fourth Spirit Ring is Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring?" Gong Changlong was a little dazed. He looked at Xia Linyuan dubiously and said, "Little guy, release Spirit Ring and let me have a look."
Xia Linyuan looked at Wang Yan, as if asking for his opinion. With Wang Yan nodding, he released his Spirit Ring, two yellow, one purple and one black, and four Spirit Ring slowly rose from his feet.
Seeing the black Spirit Ring in fourth place, Gong Changlong looked surprised, "The fourth Spirit Ring is Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring, you can do it."
"Thank you, Mr. Gong, for the compliment." Xia Linyuan said in a neither humble nor overbearing tone.
Although Xia Linyuan's talent far exceeded Gong Changlong's estimate, and he understood why this upgrade assessment would raise Xia Linyuan's assessment level, he still couldn't figure out how Xia Linyuan killed Titan Ape, who had a strength comparable to that of an ordinary seven-thousand-year-old Spirit Beast? And depending on the time, it hadn't been long since the upgrade assessment started.
With such doubts, Gong Changlong asked, "How did you kill Titan Ape for five thousand years?"
Don't talk about him, others are also curious about how Xia Linyuan managed to kill Titan Ape with one sword.
Xia Linyuan explained, "My fourth Spirit Ring was taken from a ten thousand-year-old blue-eyed tiger lion. After absorbing the ten thousand-year-old blue-eyed tiger lion's Spirit Ring, my strength and attributes have reached the extreme. In addition, my personal insight is stronger than ordinary people. I can quickly locate Titan Ape's vital points in battle and kill it."
Hearing Xia Linyuan's explanation, Gong Changlong nodded slightly, "That's right, that's right. At your age, almost no one can stay calm in the face of danger and remain calm when fighting Spirit Beast, let alone quickly lock in Spirit Beast's key point."
"Okay, I won't hold you responsible for killing Titan Ape that I managed to capture this time. However, if you kill these babies of mine again in the upgrade assessment or actual combat, I will definitely make you miserable."
"Thank you, Mr. Gong." Xia Linyuan bowed lightly to Gong Changlong.
After finally sending Gong Changlong away, Wang Yan squeezed in again.
"Linyuan, the teacher also has some questions for you. What is your Hunter Martial Soul? How did you make the fourth Spirit Ring to be Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring? What is Spirit Skill?"
As soon as Martial Soul was mentioned, Wang Yan immediately became more energetic and asked questions like a barrage of cannonballs.
After listening to Wang Yan's questions, Xia Linyuan smiled, shook his head, and replied, "Teacher Wang Yan, I'm sorry. Even our college, which has thousands of years of foundation and is known as the number one college in mainland China, can't give accurate answers to many of your questions, let alone me, a thirteen-year-old child."
Hearing what Xia Linyuan said, Wang Yan smiled awkwardly, "Then Linyuan, can you tell me how you jumped over and absorbed Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring?"
As soon as Wang Yan spoke, almost all the students in Class 1 pricked up their ears. They also wanted to know how they could absorb Spirit Ring beyond the next level, and then when they were about to break through the fourth ring, they would also absorb a Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring and drink it in front of others.
Even Dai Huabin pricked up his ears despite his nonchalant look.
"That's right." Xia Linyuan smiled slightly, "It can be considered a mistake."
A strange combination of circumstances?
Everyone looked at each other in confusion, not understanding what Xia Linyuan meant.
"In my plan, my fourth Spirit Ring target is Dark Attribute Spirit Beast that is around six thousand years old, and Teacher Naiya has also helped me capture the six thousand year old Night Falcon. However, just when I was about to absorb the Night Falcon's Spirit Ring, I suddenly remembered something."
Xia Linyuan seemed to remember something from the past that impressed him deeply, and he quickly fell into memories.
His rare appearance immediately piqued the interest of a group of more than 80 students, including Wang Yan and Zhou Yi.
Especially Huo Yuhao, Tang Wulin, Wang Dong and others were all very alert, fearing that they would miss this opportunity to get to know Xia Linyuan.
Although they often go together, Xia Linyuan almost never mentions his own situation. Naturally, they have no chance to get to know Xia Linyuan in depth. As friends, they naturally have to take this opportunity to get to know Xia Linyuan.
Only Gu Yuena knows how a guy like Xia Linyuan, who can express his emotions and anger, can tell others his thoughts so simply. He must be making up stories to deceive people.
Xia Linyuan turned his head and looked into the distance, with a hint of sadness in his voice, "I think of those soldiers who risked their lives on the front line to prevent Abyssal Creatures from going any further. I think of every time When Abyssal Creatures invaded, there were rivers of blood and corpses everywhere. I thought about what it would be like on the Douluo Continent if the front line was defeated. My family, my friends, my... I thought of many things."
"Do you know?" Xia Linyuan smiled slightly, but this smile seemed very forced to others, "On the Abyss front line, Star Luo Empire, Dou Ling Empire, Heavenly Soul Empire Among the three-nation coalition forces that numbered fully one million, Spirit Master only had five thousand people, and seventy percent of them only had the cultivation level of the third or fourth ring, and there were no more than a hundred people above the Soul Emperor."
"But their enemy is the extremely brutal Abyssal Creatures. Even with the assistance of Spirit Skill from the auxiliary system Soul Saint Spirit Master, it would take five or six ordinary soldiers to compete with an ordinary-level Abyssal Creatures."
Speaking of this, Xia Linyuan looked around, his smile a little bitter.
Seeing the bitter smile on the corner of Xia Linyuan's mouth, everyone somehow felt a little dazzling and their faces began to feel hot.
Wang Yan felt a little embarrassed.
As for Zhou Yi, the more she listened to Xia Linyuan's words, the more she felt something was wrong. She could tell that Xia Linyuan was mocking Shrek Academy in a roundabout way.
They all know that Shrek Academy has six thousand permanent staff, and among these six thousand people, everyone is Spirit Master. The number of Titled Douluo is the largest in the entire Douluo Continent. There are more than a dozen Titled Douluo in charge, and even the teachers, even the weakest ones, have the cultivation level of Soul King.
Among the millions of people in the Three Kingdoms Allied Forces, Spirit Master only numbered 5,000 people. Spirit Masters at the third and fourth ring levels accounted for 70%. Above the Soul Emperor, there were no more than a hundred people.
One academy alone is comparable to, or even far superior to, the strength of the Three Kingdoms Allied Forces, and while the soldiers at the front are fighting to the death, they are sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai at the rear. If word of this spreads, what will others think?
Xia Linyuan continued, "I often hear people praising me for my unparalleled resourcefulness and strategizing on the battlefield. They even praise me as the patron saint of the Star Luo Empire and even the entire continent. But they have no idea that it is not me who protects them at all, but the soldiers who fight to the death with the enemy on the front line."
"It was the soldiers who sacrificed their lives and fought for the enemy on the front line in exchange for the peace Douluo Continent has today. And I am just an insignificant leader who was pushed to a high position."
"They only know that I led the soldiers to victory. They have never experienced war personally, and they cannot imagine the cruelty of war. Victory is built up with the lives of countless soldiers. Sometimes in order to win, it is necessary to actively give up the lives of some soldiers."
"I will never forget that when the first level Abyssal Tide broke out a few years ago, when they learned that death squads were needed to go deep into the enemy camp to open up new opportunities, more than half of the soldiers voluntarily accepted the orders and were willing to sacrifice their own lives just to exchange for that glimmer of hope."
"That's when I began to realize that all tragedies happen because of our own lack of strength."
"If our own strength is strong enough, so strong that even Abyss Plane will be afraid of it, then will they still choose to invade Douluo Continent? If our own strength is strong enough, will there still be so many generals shrouded in Shima leather?"
"Strength! I need strength! Only when I become strong enough can I protect my family! Only then can I protect the people of the Star Luo Empire! Only then can I protect Douluo Continent!" At this point, Xia Linyuan's hair was already on his fingers and his eyes were cracked.
He could no longer hide his inner sadness, he was so sad that he swallowed back tears.
Everyone was silent.
They could not have imagined that Xia Linyuan actually had such an idea and risked his life to leapfrog and absorb Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring.
At this moment, all they had for Xia Linyuan was admiration and sincere admiration. Most of the girls' eyes were red.
Even Dai Huabin, who had always been disappointed with Xia Linyuan, couldn't help but admire him.
His dream is to become a person like Duke of White Tiger, who can command the three armies and be invincible. But as Xia Linyuan said, "If you have never experienced war personally, you cannot imagine the cruelty of war."
Xia Linyuan's words made him deeply understand that the road to becoming a qualified general was far more difficult than he imagined.
"Maybe..." Xia Linyuan said softly, "It is precisely because my father understood this that he asked me to retreat from the front line and send me to the Shrek Academy alone to bear the pressure from the Abyssal Creatures invasion."
"Instead of expecting others, it is better to rely on yourself. He bets all his hopes on me. He wants me to stand higher and see farther. When I grow up to be able to hold up half the sky, I will sit on the front line of Abyss so that Abyssal Creatures will not dare to offend Douluo Continent easily again."
Everyone stared blankly at Xia Linyuan's tall and straight body. They didn't know if it was an illusion, but they actually felt that Xia Linyuan's back had become taller.
"Linyuan, thank you for your hard work." Huo Yuhao said softly.
"Monitor, thank you for your hard work!" Others also said.
Xia Linyuan smiled slightly.
On the high platform, Qian Duoduo looked at Yan Shaozhe who had his back turned to him jokingly, sighed, and said, "You heard the old saying, right? You will never be able to polish off such a child's edges. He will only become more and more sharp, and no one can beat him."
"Haha." Yan Shaozhe naturally knew the implication of Qian Duoduo's words, and couldn't help but sneer, "I didn't avoid you either. Didn't you also stop me from using Wei Lun's mouth to kill Xia Linyuan's arrogance? You picked a good opportunity to be a red face."
"Hey, Lao Yan, you are wrong." Qian Duoduo chuckled and said, "Why do you think I picked a good time to be famous? I am just a deputy dean of the Soul Guidance Department. How dare I surpass you, the dean of the Martial Soul Department?"
"Hmph!" Yan Shaozhe snorted again.
"Okay, okay." Qian Duoduo waved his hand and said, "Don't show your shameful face to me. You should think carefully about whether Xia Linyuan will understand what you mean, and then whether you will have any prejudice against the Martial Soul Department because of this matter."
"But, anyway, the most important thing you Martial Soul Department lack is genius. If you have one more or one less, you Martial Soul Department won't lose any weight. If you don't care, I welcome such a genius to my Soul Guidance Department. I think Lin'er will also like it."
"Get out!" Yan Shaozhe's face turned darker.
