Azure Luan's Breakthrough: Level 98! Shrek: Oscar Breaks Through Level 30, Star Dou Trial?

Dugu Bo gasped, exclaiming in shock:

"You possess the spiritual power of a high-level Soul Saint at only level sixty?!

Then right now..."

"Right now?"

Huang Yan's lips curled upward, his eyes brimming with confidence.

"This Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew truly lives up to its reputation.

As of now, my spiritual power has completely crossed the threshold of a Soul Saint, surging to the realm of a high-level Soul Douluo!"

"A high-level Soul Douluo?!"

Dugu Bo's eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief.

Huang Yan nodded, casting his gaze toward the direction of the Star Dou Great Forest, his tone laced with anticipation:

"With the spiritual power of a high-level Soul Douluo as support, the soul shockwaves left behind by soul beasts under one hundred thousand years no longer pose a fatal threat to me.

For this sixth soul ring, I can fully attempt to absorb one of eighty thousand, or even ninety thousand years!"

Not long after, an extremely violent fluctuation of soul power suddenly erupted from the body of the Azure Luan Douluo, who was sitting cross-legged.

This pressure was as deep as an abyss and as heavy as a prison, instantly sweeping across the entire Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, making the surrounding air feel as if it had solidified.

"Not good!"

Dugu Bo's expression shifted; he hurriedly stepped forward and swiftly erected a jade-green barrier of soul power.

He shielded Huang Yan and Shui Bing'er firmly behind him, resisting the raging storm of soul power.

A moment later, the violent soul power gradually receded, transforming into a more profound and vast aura.

The Azure Luan Douluo suddenly opened his eyes, sharp light shooting from them, and he let out a hearty, unrestrained laugh toward the sky:

"Hahaha!

Level ninety-eight!

This old man has finally taken this step!"

Huang Yan stepped out from behind the barrier with Shui Bing'er, smiling as he cupped his hands in salute:

"Congratulations, Teacher, for fulfilling your wish and breaking through the barrier of level ninety-eight!"

Dugu Bo and Shui Bing'er also hurriedly echoed in unison:

"Congratulations, Third Offering!"

"Congratulations, Senior!"

"Good!

Good!

Good!"

The Azure Luan Douluo was beaming with joy as he strode up to Huang Yan.

Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly let out a soft sound of surprise, staring at Huang Yan with a look of uncertainty.

"Yan'er, your spiritual power... what is going on?

In the short time it took for this old man to break through a bottleneck, how did your spiritual power become so dense and vast?"

Huang Yan answered truthfully:

"Teacher, taking advantage of the time you were breaking through, I refined a medicinal herb called the 'Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew'.

Now, my spiritual power has surged to the realm of a high-level Soul Douluo."

"A high-level Soul Douluo?!"

The Azure Luan Douluo was stunned at first, then overcome with wild joy; he couldn't help but pat Huang Yan's shoulder heavily and laugh out loud:

"Good lad!

You really are something!

To have such terrifying spiritual power at level sixty means the age of your sixth soul ring will definitely reach an unprecedented level!"

The Azure Luan Douluo waved his hand, speaking with high spirits:

"No time to lose!

Dugu Bo, Yan'er, hurry up and pack up; take all these useful medicinal herbs!

We are setting off now to the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt for your sixth soul ring!"

Looking at the garden full of rare medicinal herbs, Dugu Bo's mind shifted, and he took the initiative to unfasten a leather pouch from his waist, offering it to Huang Yan with both hands.

"Young Master, these medicinal herbs are delicate; ordinary storage Soul Tools might cause them to lose their medicinal properties.

This 'Ruyi Hundred Treasure Pouch' of mine can store living things, making it perfectly suited for carrying these herbs. Please, Young Master, accept it."

Huang Yan accepted the Ruyi Hundred Treasure Pouch without hesitation and chuckled softly:

"Elder Dugu is most thoughtful."

Having said that, Huang Yan moved with agility, plucking those immortal herbs and top-tier medicinal plants one by one.

He carefully placed them into the jade boxes prepared beforehand, finally tucking them all into his Ruyi Hundred Treasure Pouch.

Seeing Dugu Bo so sensible and tactful, Azure Luan Douluo, standing to the side, nodded in satisfaction.

Seeing that the matter was concluded, Dugu Bo bowed respectfully with cupped hands:

"Third Offering, Young Master.

Since the business here is finished, this old man wishes to return to Heaven Dou City first to settle some matters with my granddaughter, Yan Yan.

Once I have finished handling these trifles, I will bring her directly to Martial Soul City to officially join Martial Soul Hall."

Azure Luan Douluo nodded slightly and said in a deep voice:

"Go, and get your family affairs in order.

Once you arrive at Martial Soul City, just mention my name."

"Many thanks, Third Offering!"

Dugu Bo was overjoyed. After bowing once more, he leaped out of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, transforming into a streak of green light as he departed rapidly.

Once Dugu Bo had gone far away, Azure Luan Douluo turned to look at Huang Yan and asked:

"Yan'er, do you have a clear target in mind for this sixth spirit ring?"

Huang Yan shook his head and answered truthfully:

"Teacher, I do not have a specific target for the time being."

"Oh? Why is that?"

Huang Yan's gaze narrowed slightly as he explained in a deep voice:

"The baseline for the age of the spirit beast I intend to hunt this time is eighty thousand years, and I even hope to push for ninety thousand.

Spirit beasts of this caliber are already overlords that dominate their own territories.

Even in the core area of the Star Dou Great Forest, they are extremely rare existences.

To encounter a suitable one, I fear it will still come down to luck."

Upon hearing this, Azure Luan Douluo smiled indifferently, his tone revealing absolute dominance:

"No matter!

As long as it exists within the Star Dou Great Forest, even if we have to turn the core area upside down and spend however much time it takes.

This master will certainly find the most suitable spirit beast for you!"

Having said that, Azure Luan Douluo turned his gaze toward Shui Bing'er, his expression softening slightly as he asked:

"Little girl Bing'er, you have also reached the bottleneck where you need to hunt for a spirit ring.

Do you have any thoughts regarding your own spirit ring?"

Shui Bing'er bowed slightly and replied respectfully:

"Senior, my martial soul is of the ice attribute. Although the Star Dou Great Forest has many spirit beasts, high-age ice-attribute spirit beasts are extremely rare there.

Therefore, I would like to go to the Far North to take a look.

It is frozen year-round, and almost all the spirit beasts there are of the ice attribute; I will surely be able to find a spirit ring that is the perfect match for me."

"The Far North?"

Azure Luan Douluo pondered for a moment before readily nodding in agreement:

"Not bad, that is indeed the best hunting ground for an ice-attribute spirit master.

Very well! Then it is settled!

Once we have finished helping Yan'er hunt his suitable sixth spirit ring in the Star Dou Great Forest, this old man will personally take you to the Far North!"

Meanwhile, outside Suotuo City.

At Shrek Academy, the training grounds were bustling with activity.

"Hahaha!

I've broken through!

I've finally broken through to level thirty!"

Oscar jumped and hopped excitedly on the dirt training ground, his face unable to conceal his agitation.

Tang San, Dai Mubai, and the others gathered around, offering their congratulations with smiles.

"Congratulations, Little Ao. I didn't expect you to be the second among us to break through to level thirty."

Dai Mubai patted Oscar on the shoulder.

Tang San also nodded with a smile:

"Cultivation for a food-system spirit master is inherently difficult. Little Ao, your talent is truly astonishing."

Standing at the front, Dean Flender pushed up the crystal glasses on the bridge of his nose, a glint of satisfaction flashing in his eyes.

He gave a light cough, suppressing the murmurs of the crowd.

"Alright, quiet down, everyone."

Flender looked toward the burly Zhao Wuji at his side and spoke:

"Wuji, since Oscar has reached level thirty, the matter of obtaining his third spirit ring cannot be delayed."

Zhao Wuji grinned, cracking his knuckles with a series of sharp pops:

"Rest assured, Boss Flender, leave it to me."

Flender nodded, his gaze sweeping over the seven, including Tang San, as he said in a deep voice:

"This spirit hunt is not just for Oscar.

Since the seven of you little monsters have just gathered, this is also a rare opportunity for a practical combat drill.

Wuji, you will lead the team this time; take these seven to the Star Dou Great Forest for some training.

Remember, unless they encounter life-threatening danger, do not intervene easily. Let them solve the problems themselves!"

"Understood!"

Zhao Wuji stepped forward, his gaze sweeping majestically over the seven youths before him as he shouted:

"Did you all hear the Dean's words?

Hurry back and pack your luggage. We will gather at the academy gate tomorrow morning.

Our destination: the Star Dou Great Forest!"

"Yes, Teacher Zhao!"

Tang San and the other six responded in unison, all eager to give it a try.
