Very Much Like Blue Silver Bind

He remembered that in the original work, even Yu Xiaogang possessed the keen eye to accurately judge the age of a soul beast.

"Could it be that the guy actually has some substance to him?"

Bibi Dong felt a surge of doubt.

"Neither I, nor even a Title Douluo, can accurately judge the specific age of a soul beast. We can only summarize an approximate range based on their characteristics. For those soul beasts whose age characteristics are not obvious, it is even harder to judge."

"This Ghost Face Spider can be confirmed to be between 400 and 450 years old, but the exact age will never be known until the soul ring is absorbed. If it were just at the 400-year mark, Teacher wouldn't mind you trying to absorb it, but if it is already a 450-year soul beast, the risks involved are simply too great."

"Therefore, when soul masters hunt for soul rings, even if they are very confident in themselves, they will always leave a margin of 50 to 100 years to avoid uncontrollable situations."

Qian Xunji spoke in a consistently gentle tone, breaking down the complexities of the matter to explain them to Bibi Dong.

"This isn't..."

After hearing all of this, Bibi Dong was stunned.

Since Qian Xunji understood so much, she must have taught it to Bibi Dong in the original work as well. Under such circumstances, Bibi Dong had still been hoodwinked by Yu Xiaogang.

Does this make sense?

Is it reasonable?

After listening to Qian Xunji's detailed explanation, Bibi Dong felt more and more that Yu Xiaogang's theory was complete nonsense.

If even a Title Douluo could not accurately judge the age of a soul beast, then what was the point of his theory?

Don't even mention that Yu Xiaogang had the ability to accurately judge the age of soul beasts; that was simply absurd.

Even for those soul beasts with obvious characteristics, a difference of a few years or a decade would not show significant changes, let alone those with obscure characteristics. As a mere Soul Grand Master, how could he possibly judge it? Was he just guessing based on pure intuition?

"Teacher, since we've finally encountered a suitable soul beast, I would like to give it a try?"

Bibi Dong looked at Qian Xunji cautiously, asking in a tentative tone.

"You child, haven't I made myself clear enough?"

Qian Xunji felt a headache coming on. As a first-time teacher, she hadn't expected it to be this troublesome.

Helpless, she had to look toward the two Title Douluos, Thousand Jun and Falling Devil, for assistance.

Thousand Jun Douluo understood what this meant. He stepped forward to Bibi Dong's side and channeled his soul power into his body, simulating the impact of soul ring energy.

As long as one was a Title Douluo whose spiritual power was not particularly weak, they could accomplish this.

"Not bad, he is indeed qualified to absorb a soul ring of over four hundred years."

Thousand Jun Douluo looked at Bibi Dong, who had beads of sweat on his forehead but was still gritting his teeth and enduring without a sound, his eyes filled with approval.

With the verification from Thousand Jun Douluo, Qian Xunji finally agreed to let him absorb the soul ring of this Ghost Face Spider.

He adjusted himself to his best state, found the soul beast's weak point, and killed it.

A yellow soul ring appeared.

Bibi Dong manifested his martial soul and drew the soul ring toward him.

The next moment, he felt as if he had returned to the moment he was gambling with his life before his death in his previous life.

The soul power contained within the soul ring surged into his body all at once, like a burst dam, impossible to hold back.

He finally understood why absorbing a higher-age soul ring was so difficult.

This thing flooded into your body all at once, giving you no time to slowly consume or refine it.

He gritted his teeth and persisted, frantically circulating his meditation technique to continuously refine that violent and powerful soul power.

Fortunately, his physique was quite good, and his martial soul was top-tier. Although the process was painful, he was able to endure it.

It took a full hour before he successfully absorbed his first soul ring.

His entire body was drenched, as if he had just been fished out of water.

Absorbing a soul ring was truly an exhausting task.

"My first soul ring is 421 years old. The soul skill I obtained is called Death Spider Web Bind. It fires a deep purple spider web to bind the enemy, possessing the characteristics of sealing soul power and corroding flesh. With my current soul power, I can only fire it three times."

Bibi Dong did not hide his soul power from Qian Xunji, explaining every detail.

Inwardly, however, he was complaining: Damn it, why is this so similar to Blue Silver Bind!

Complaints aside, Bibi Dong knew very well that his soul skill was fundamentally different from Blue Silver Bind, and he was quite satisfied with it.

"A very good soul skill!"

Even Qian Xunji couldn't help but exclaim after hearing this.

The reason she didn't praise the age of the soul ring Bibi Dong absorbed was that she had realized her disciple, while seemingly obedient and sensible, actually had a mind of his own.

If she praised him this time, he might pursue an even higher-age soul ring next time.

Such things were too dangerous; it was better not to encourage it.

Afterward, Qian Xunji took out a crystal ball to let Bibi Dong test his soul power.

He placed his palm on the crystal ball, a suction force came from it, and then it emitted a brilliant light.

"Level 12, infinitely close to Level 13?"

Seeing this, Qian Xunji was somewhat surprised.

Most spirit masters only increase by one level after absorbing a spirit ring, yet this disciple of hers had increased his spirit power by more than two levels, which was truly strange.

Bibi Dong was not overly surprised by this. Although the spirit ring he had absorbed was slightly higher in age than Tang San's, he had only awakened his martial soul less than a month ago. Tang San, on the other hand, had long since cultivated the Mysterious Heaven Skill to the perfection of the first layer, and after his martial soul awakened, he had cultivated for another three months before going to obtain his spirit ring.

Having a little more spirit power than him was still acceptable.

With the goal accomplished, the group returned to Martial Soul Hall.

After obtaining the first spirit ring, Qian Xunji arranged for Bibi Dong to attend school.

Bibi Dong did not resist this; the systematic education of Martial Soul Hall still had many merits.

Aside from daily cultivation, in her spare time, Bibi Dong would either go to the library to read books or seek out Yue Guan to learn about the pharmacology of flowers and herbs from him.

In the blink of an eye, a year passed.

His spirit power had increased by a full four and a half levels, and he was now a level 16 spirit master.

As for his teacher, Qian Xunji, she was only one level away from becoming a Spirit Douluo.

"Xiao Dong, Teacher is going to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan to represent our Martial Soul Hall in a transaction. Would you like to come along?"

Qian Xunji appeared before Bibi Dong and asked.

It was truly because this disciple cultivated too frantically, always keeping his heartstrings taut. She felt it would be better to take some time to take him out to relax.

"The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan?"

Bibi Dong was actually interested.

If she remembered correctly, this year, Yu Xiaogang should also be awakening his martial soul.

She wanted to go and see whether Yu Xiaogang was a man or a woman.

If Yu Xiaogang's personality had also changed, that would be too insane.
