Mu En's Teachings

"Ah, this... I didn't expect that soul beast to be in the middle of evolving into a thousand-year one," Elder Xuan said, scratching his head with an embarrassed expression.

Bei Bei felt speechless. He knew Elder Xuan was unreliable, but he hadn't expected that despite all his precautions, a problem would still arise regarding the age of his soul ring.

Fortunately, his life was tough; he had consumed two thousand-year Whale Rubber beforehand to improve his physical constitution, and this Sub-Dragon soul ring was suppressed by his own Radiant Sacred Dragon martial soul, allowing him to complete the absorption without any mishaps.

Bei Bei inspected the carcass of the Sub-Dragon, and finding no soul bone, he stored the beast's remains inside his soul tool.

Meat from light-attribute soul beasts was rare; bringing it back to eat would, to a certain extent, increase his cultivation speed.

After hunting the soul ring, Elder Xuan grabbed Bei Bei, his figure transforming into a streak of earthy-yellow light as he flew toward the outer perimeter of the Star Dou Great Forest, preparing to return to Shrek City.

Upon returning to Shrek Academy, Elder Xuan dropped Bei Bei off and vanished, presumably to report to Elder Mu.

Bei Bei couldn't wait to return to his room, eager to wash away the bloodstains on his body.

Zhang Lexuan, who was in the middle of cultivation, looked at Bei Bei—who had practically become a bloody mess—with astonishment. She was shocked; it was just a first soul ring, how could he end up in such a state!

Elder Xuan was a level 98 Super Douluo; who could possibly injure Bei Bei like this right under his nose?

Fortunately, Bei Bei was currently bathing; if he knew what Zhang Lexuan was thinking, he would only feel speechless. When there was no external danger, Elder Xuan himself was the danger.

After finally scrubbing the bloodstains off his body, Bei Bei walked out in a relaxed manner.

Having waited outside for a long time, Zhang Lexuan immediately rushed over, patting Bei Bei all over to see exactly where he had been injured.

"Sister Lexuan, you're so wild! But I'm still young; when I grow up, I will definitely satisfy you." Feeling those soft, delicate hands roaming over his body, Bei Bei couldn't help but feel his cheeks flush slightly.

"Still being cheeky, where are you hurt?" Zhang Lexuan felt a bit embarrassed and annoyed, but seeing that Bei Bei still had the heart to tease her, she finally set her mind at ease.

Bei Bei gave a brief account of what had happened.

Zhang Lexuan was immediately vexed, saying with some dissatisfaction, "Elder Xuan is really too careless. It's fortunate that you're alright, Bei Bei."

"Hehe, not only am I alright, but I've turned a misfortune into a blessing—my first soul ring is a thousand-year one." Bei Bei summoned his soul ring, the shimmering purple light flickering as he said with some pride.

Not only that, but his soul power level had directly increased by three, and now his soul power had reached level 13.

Just then, someone outside called out, "Is Bei Bei there? Elder Mu has requested your presence."

Hearing this, Bei Bei responded, then walked with Zhang Lexuan toward the direction of Mu En.

Elder Mu's residence was inside the Golden Ancient Tree, a place saturated with dense light and life attributes, which could better suppress his injuries and the baleful energy of the Dragon Core within his body.

The Dragon Core inside Mu En's body had been tempered for years by his own Radiant Sacred Dragon soul power, causing the baleful energy within to gradually wear away, while the internal energy underwent changes, becoming easier to absorb.

In just a few more years, the baleful energy within the Dragon Core would be completely worn away.

By then, even an ordinary soul master would be able to absorb and refine it. Of course, someone possessing the Radiant Sacred Dragon martial soul would be able to utilize it perfectly without the slightest waste.

Mu En's residence was on the third floor of the Sea God Pavilion.

Zhang Lexuan did not enter, instead standing outside the door of the Sea God Pavilion, as Elder Mu had only requested Bei Bei to enter.

Bei Bei pushed open the doors of the Sea God Pavilion and walked inside.

This was his first time stepping into the interior of the Golden Ancient Tree.

Bei Bei knew that this Golden Ancient Tree could maintain a connection with the Sea God Tang San, but he wasn't particularly worried, because with his current strength and talent, he couldn't attract the other's attention.

Even in the future, as Mu En's great-grandson, as long as he didn't publicly insult Tang San, oppose him, or sabotage his plans, the other party wouldn't personally take action against him.

Therefore, Bei Bei was currently safe and didn't need to hide anything.

The first floor of the Sea God Pavilion was a large hall containing an oval table with eight seats distributed on either side, and a recliner at the head of the table, but it was empty.

Bei Bei continued upward. The second floor of the Sea God Pavilion was a library containing confidential information about Shrek Academy and storing many supreme treasures.

Bei Bei didn't wander around, instead following the stairs to the third floor.

The third floor was not large, only about thirty square meters, and the decor was very simple: just a bed, a table, chairs, and a bookcase.

There was a window on one wall, offering a view of the beautiful scenery on Sea God Island outside.

Mu En was half-lying on the bed, looking at the scenery outside the window.

"Great-Grandfather," Bei Bei called out obediently.

"Xuan Zi has that kind of personality—careless. I have already reprimanded him," Mu En turned his head and said with some helplessness.

"Xuan Zi's personality has always been influenced by his own martial soul. Although the Godly Taotie Bull martial soul possesses a powerful dragon bloodline, it has flaws. Because it is a mutated martial soul, he is often affected by it; only by constantly eating can he alleviate the side effects of the martial soul, which is why it has always been difficult for him to break through to level 99."

"Grandson understands; I hold no resentment toward Elder Xuan." Bei Bei finally understood why Elder Xuan had to keep eating constantly, as if he couldn't control it at all.

Even later, when he broke through to level 99, it was only by relying on the Universe Creation Pill refined by Huo Yuhao that he had barely managed it.

"Let me see how your first soul skill is!" Mu En's eyes flickered slightly, a faint smile tugging at the corners of his mouth.

"Alright." Bei Bei nodded, then shouted loudly, "Radiant Sacred Dragon martial soul, possess!"

A dazzling golden light shone from Bei Bei's forehead, spreading outward to envelop his entire body. Golden arcs of electricity danced across his skin, and a platinum-colored dragon scale appeared on his forehead, faintly marked with lightning-shaped patterns.

Beneath his feet, a shining purple ring rose, encircling his body.

"First soul skill, Radiant Dragon Claw!" Golden lightning gathered on Bei Bei's right arm, forming a dragon claw, which he swiped toward the open window.

The golden dragon claw traveled over thirty meters in the air before dissipating, the space through which it passed twisting violently, while the terrifying golden lightning erupted with a heart-stopping roar.

Bei Bei explained in detail, "My first soul skill can use lightning to condense into a dragon claw and shoot it at the enemy. It can also wrap the golden lightning around my arm to enhance the power of melee attacks, carrying a certain degree of paralysis effect. It is a single-target attack skill that can be used both at range and in close quarters."
