Inside Moonlight Pavilion's private room, Xue Ke turned to look at Ye Mu beside her.

Her face was filled with curiosity.

Dai Mubai had been punished, but the Immortal Herbs were what truly drew everyone's attention.

"Master Ye, do you know what Immortal Herbs are?"

As soon as she said that, everyone in the private room looked over.

Master Ye appeared unconcerned about everything.

Yet his knowledge was exceptionally vast.

For example, when everyone had been guessing the Sky Azure Bull Python,

he had rejected it!

So perhaps he had already known the correct answer beforehand.

He knew of the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King's existence.

Such a mysterious Master Ye might know about Immortal Herbs.

Ye Mu truly did not disappoint them.

He simply explained the situation with Immortal Herbs.

"Some special medicinal herbs exist in the Douluo World."

"These herbs absorb the essence of the sun and moon, evolving into Immortal Herbs."

"Some Immortal Herbs can strengthen the body, while others can even alter Martial Souls and cause Martial Soul Evolution."

"Immortal Herbs generally contain immense energy."

"Once consumed, one's Soul Power will rise along with it."

After saying that, he continued enjoying his meal.

Tang Yuehua's question about the person standing atop the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King's head had truly startled him.

This little woman had incredibly sharp eyes!

She had noticed even such a tiny detail.

It would not be fun if she exposed him directly.

"Immortal Herbs actually have such miraculous effects?"

Xue Ke found it hard to believe.

Even Martial Souls could evolve?

It was utterly unbelievable.

Ye Mu said calmly, "What's so strange about that? The world is vast, and all manner of wonders exist. Yue Hua, the dishes have gone cold."

Tang Yuehua came back to her senses and hurriedly had people replace some of the dishes.

She had been focused on watching the Sky Screen and had not noticed that the food had already gone cold.

It would be a grave offense if Master Ye became dissatisfied.

Within the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

Ning Fengzhi rose and walked outside.

"Uncle Sword, Uncle Bone, we need to make a trip to Blue Tyrant Academy."

"What are we going there for? To see Rongrong?"

Bone Douluo was utterly confused.

Had they not just returned from there?

Ning Fengzhi said softly, "Sky Screen Q&A's questions are mostly related to Soul Beasts and Soul Masters."

"Yu Xiaogang, whose theories are unrivaled across the continent, is there. Going there cannot be wrong."

"Besides, quite a few people may have the same thoughts as us."

"Blue Tyrant Academy will become a place where the winds and clouds converge. Dugu Bo alone will not be able to keep the situation under control."

Upon hearing this, Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo both understood.

Leaving for Blue Tyrant Academy immediately was indeed the best choice.

They had also registered just now.

Unfortunately, they had not been selected.

Fortunately, they had not been selected either, or the punishment would have been unbearable.

Furthermore, many people would head to Blue Tyrant Academy.

Forces from every side would gather there.

If they did not go, Rongrong and the others might truly be in danger.

They could ignore everyone else.

But they had to ensure that nothing went wrong with Rongrong's safety.

Just as Ning Fengzhi had expected.

Some people who knew Yu Xiaogang was at Blue Tyrant Academy had already begun harboring their own thoughts.

If it involved knowledge of Soul Beasts or Soul Masters,

Yu Xiaogang indeed held a tremendous advantage.

With him supplying answers, the accuracy rate would be higher.

Thus, people from many forces, including the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and Lower Four Sects, were currently on their way to Blue Tyrant Academy.

Even the Clear Sky Sect, which had already sealed itself off, seemed to have developed some ideas.

The descent of the Sky Screen might be an excellent opportunity to revive the Clear Sky Sect.

Inside Pope Palace.

Bibi Dong's gaze was icy as she clenched the scepter in her hand.

"Search the entire continent for Yu Xiaogang. You must find him!"

She had not searched for Yu Xiaogang for many years.

She knew that he certainly did not wish to see her.

But now it concerned the Sky Screen and rewards that could drive people mad.

She had to find Yu Xiaogang!

Chrysanthemum Douluo nodded.

Yu Xiaogang's title as the Grandmaster was renowned far and wide.

Because of the Sky Screen, Yu Xiaogang had already become the target of public attention.

Even Xue Ke and Tang Yuehua were asking about him.

"Mr. Ye, should we send people to look for that Grandmaster?"

After speaking of the Grandmaster's reputation,

Tang Yuehua rather hoped they could find him.

However, upon hearing Yu Xiaogang's name, Ye Mu dismissed it with contempt.

"Not interested."

"But..."

"No buts. Yu Xiaogang is at Blue Tyrant Academy, where Dai Mubai is."

"Furthermore, Dai Mubai is one of the people Yu Xiaogang has focused on training, yet he answered incorrectly."

Upon hearing that, Tang Yuehua immediately understood.

Dai Mubai had undergone Yu Xiaogang's training.

Then the answer he had given just now

should have been provided by Yu Xiaogang!

Yet Dai Mubai had still answered incorrectly.

That meant Yu Xiaogang did not understand certain matters.

At the very least, not comprehensively enough.

Furthermore, the questions posed by the Sky Screen were certainly not simple.

The answers were likely to be unexpected.

But how did Ye Mu know such detailed information about Dai Mubai?

And how did he know Yu Xiaogang was at Blue Tyrant Academy?

Although the Sky Screen had announced that Dai Mubai was at Blue Tyrant Academy,

it had not mentioned his relationship with Yu Xiaogang.

This Mr. Ye was becoming more and more mysterious.

It seemed as though everything was within his expectations.

A man as enigmatic as a riddle.

"Master Ye, the Sky Screen's second question is here!"

Xue Ke suddenly cried out.

After the first question ended,

the Sky Screen did not disappear.

Instead, it immediately presented a second question.

The second question made countless people even more determined to seek out Yu Xiaogang.

That majestic, sacred voice once again resounded throughout the Douluo Continent.

[Second question: What is the current strongest First Soul Ring limit in years?] [1. Two hundred and fifty years; 2. Three hundred and thirty years; 3. Four hundred years; 4. Four hundred and twenty-three years;] [5. Five hundred and ninety-six years; 6. One thousand four hundred and twenty-three years; 7. Ten thousand years; 8. One million years] [The name corresponding to each option will be revealed after answering!] [Registration is now open!]

The Sky Screen's second question!

"The First Soul Ring limit?"

Xue Ke scratched her head.

This question seemed rather complicated.

She did not know the answer.

But based on the Soul Master world's experience, the first three options could certainly be ruled out.

But what about those later options?

Could someone's First Soul Ring be a thousand years? Or even ten thousand years?

Even a Million-Year Soul Ring had appeared?

It looked far too outrageous!

"Master Ye, which one do you think it is?"

Xue Ke blinked her eyes.

Her little head had thought so hard that it felt like smoke was about to rise from it.

Without even raising his head, Ye Mu said, "Sky Screen Q&A does not follow the usual path, so the answer certainly will not follow the usual path either."

"The option that seems most impossible is often the correct answer!"

The most impossible one?

"Could it be one million years? That's absolutely impossible!"

Xue Ke laughed at her own words.

A Million-Year Soul Ring?

Who could possibly kill a Million-Year Soul Beast?

And absorb it at level ten, no less.

They would explode and die.

And it was asking about the present!

There was no such person in the current Soul Master world.

If there truly were, they would have been exposed long ago.

Ye Mu, however, thought of someone.

If nothing unexpected had happened, that brat was still alive!

Inside Blue Tyrant Academy.

Yu Xiaogang, who had been dealt a blow by the first question,

immediately perked up upon seeing the second question.

The First Soul Ring limit?

After confirming the question, it was right in his field of expertise.

It had practically come straight to his doorstep!

He was the absolute authority in this area!

"Register, all of you register!"

"This reward is ours for the taking!"
