"Little Yuhao, we meet again." Tang Ya walked over at this moment.

Tang Ya looked at Huo Yuhao lying on the ground, feeling quite curious as to why he was lying down.

"Big Sister Xiaoya, Big Brother Beibei!" Huo Yuhao felt a bit happy upon seeing the two, as they were people who truly treated him well.

"Little Yuhao, tell us first, why are you lying on the ground? What happened?" Tang Ya asked curiously. "Little Yuhao, we were really worried when we saw you lying there. We were afraid something had happened to you. You're just a commoner coming to hunt for a soul ring, and you don't have any soul tools or hidden weapons on you—it's just too dangerous."

Tang Ya spoke to Huo Yuhao with concern.

Beibei walked over at this time. He sensed that Huo Yuhao seemed to have become stronger; he must have absorbed a soul ring.

"Huo Yuhao, did you absorb a soul ring? If so, I congratulate you on becoming a soul master. However, there is one thing I must tell you: a soul master's soul ring must be chosen to suit their own martial soul. Selecting and absorbing a suitable soul beast is the best path."

"For example, if a woman has a Fire Bird martial soul, it is best for her to hunt fire-attribute soul beasts, preferably avian ones. Only then can she better utilize the advantages of her own martial soul."

"Of course, absorbing other types of fire-attribute soul beasts is also possible. For instance, if a Fire Bird martial soul absorbs a sub-dragon type fire-attribute soul beast, it can increase the power of the martial soul's flames and so on."

"In short, the soul beast you choose to absorb must be suitable for you and meet your needs. You cannot absorb them recklessly, or you might ruin your talent."

"Furthermore, there is another point: you must have sufficient strength to hunt. You could hire people to help you hunt soul beasts. After all, if you haven't obtained a soul ring, you are just a commoner with a little soul power and not much combat capability."

"You might even be killed and eaten by a soul beast."

Beibei spoke of the common knowledge in the soul master world. Simply put, he knew it was dangerous for Huo Yuhao to hunt soul beasts and that he wanted to become stronger, but the issue was that one must be cautious about which soul beast to hunt and whether one had the capability to do so.

Beibei was also concerned for Huo Yuhao; in his eyes, Huo Yuhao was quite likable, and Tang Ya had a favorable attitude toward him.

"Big Sister Xiaoya, Big Brother Beibei, I just absorbed a soul ring and obtained a spirit-attribute soul ring."

Huo Yuhao said quickly at this moment.

"Spirit-type soul rings are indeed quite rare. Spirit-attribute soul beasts are rare throughout the entire Star Dou Great Forest."

"It seems your martial soul must also be of the spirit type."

"My martial soul is an eye, the Spirit Eye. What I hunted just now was a ten-year Wind Baboon..."

(I'm sorry, Big Brother Beibei, Big Sister Xiaoya, I cannot betray Tian Meng. I hope you can understand.)

Huo Yuhao said to himself.

"A Wind Baboon? A wind-attribute soul beast granting a spirit-type skill to a spirit-type martial soul? That is very abnormal. Could it be that this baboon was a mutated soul beast? Or did something change when you absorbed it?"

Beibei began to ponder upon hearing this, because it was highly unlikely that a Wind Baboon would grant a spirit attribute to an eye-type martial soul, the Spirit Eye.

"Can you let us see your soul skill?" Tang Ya asked curiously.

She wanted to see what Huo Yuhao's soul skill was.

"Alright."

Huo Yuhao agreed, then released his first soul ring. The color of this ring was that of a ten-year soul ring, though this was merely a disguise.

Following that, he activated his soul skill, releasing Spirit Detection and Spirit Sharing simultaneously.

"This is!"

"This perspective?!"

Tang Ya and Beibei were both astonished at this moment, not expecting a ten-year soul ring to provide such a skill.

On the battlefield, this kind of skill could be called extremely useful, and it was just as effective in a duel.

This was equivalent to a god's-eye view.

I have never heard of any ten-year soul beast capable of providing such a soul skill—being able to both detect and share vision is just too powerful. If such a soul beast truly existed and could provide such a convenient skill at the ten-year level, how strong would this soul ring's skill be when it reached the hundred-year, thousand-year, ten-thousand-year, or even hundred-thousand-year level?!

But the problem is, Little Yuhao said he hunted a ten-year Wind Baboon. I have never heard of a Wind Baboon providing such a spirit-attribute soul ring or soul skill. If it were truly this powerful, countless spirit-attribute soul masters would have hunted Wind Baboons to extinction long ago.

Tang Ya thought in surprise.

(Is this really a ten-year Wind Baboon? Can such a ten-year soul beast provide this kind of skill? This is illogical. The attributes don't even match; how could it provide such a skill? It's not normal. Even if it's because the martial soul is an eye, it still doesn't make sense. Wind Baboons don't have such abilities; a ten-year Wind Baboon wouldn't have them! This is too unreasonable, yet the problem is that Yuhao's soul ring is indeed a ten-year one... that cannot be faked...)

Beibei also found it hard to believe at this moment, but the issue was that the color of Huo Yuhao's soul ring was indeed that of a ten-year ring. Clearly, what Huo Yuhao said should be true and couldn't be faked, but why would such an impossible thing happen? It was too abnormal!

Beibei found it very difficult to believe because it was so unreasonable; it just wasn't normal!

Just as Beibei was thinking, Tang Ya walked over.

"Little Yuhao, have you ever thought about joining our Tang Sect?"

Tang Ya walked over. In her view, although Huo Yuhao was a "commoner" with only a ten-year soul ring, the problem was that the Tang Sect basically had no members left; it was essentially just her and Beibei.

The Tang Sect now consisted only of her, a little cat, and Beibei, a big cat. And one had to know that Beibei only joined the Tang Sect because he liked her.

Therefore, no matter what, Tang Ya hoped to recruit as many people as possible to join the Tang Sect. Even if this person only had a ten-year soul ring, it didn't matter. The Tang Sect was basically on the verge of collapse; did it even have the luxury of caring about entry requirements?

The Tang Sect was not like Shrek; Shrek only recruited monsters, but the problem was that Shrek had the capital, while the Tang Sect did not.
