Beast-Type Warrior: Iron Fist Tiger

After sensing his Soul Power, Huo Li's eyes lit up. He murmured, "This top-grade herb really is something!"

Although it hadn't helped him break through to level eighty-six, the Soul Power provided by this Red Fire Dragon Ganoderma was worth at least two months of cultivation.

When he opened his eyes, Huo Wushuang eagerly asked, "How was it, Dad? What effect did the herb have?"

"Heh, it doesn't do much for me, but it'll be a great help to you two. At the very least, it can get you both to level forty!"

At that, the Huo siblings beamed with joy. Huo Wu's Soul Power was now at level thirty-nine, while Huo Wushuang's had reached level thirty-eight.

Now, all they had to do was eat the Red Fire Dragon Ganoderma before them, and they could quickly break through to level forty and become Soul Ancestors!

The siblings could no longer contain their excitement. They hurriedly grabbed a Red Fire Dragon Ganoderma each, swallowed them, then began meditating to refine their medicinal power.

After all, the Red Fire Dragon Ganoderma was a top-grade herb, and with the siblings' cultivation, they refined it quickly.

And just as Huo Li had said, after taking the Red Fire Dragon Ganoderma, both their Soul Power levels broke through to forty. They were only one Soul Ring away from becoming Soul Ancestors.

"Haha, I've broken through to level forty! I've broken through to level forty, Dad! Did you see? My Soul Power has reached level forty!"

"I know, I know. Your Soul Power reached level forty, that's all. What are you shouting for?"

Huo Li raised his large hand and gave Huo Wushuang a firm smack on the head, then turned to Huo Wu with a smile.

"Xiao Wu, how about you?"

"Hehe, of course I've reached level forty too. This Red Fire Dragon Ganoderma is amazing."

As she spoke, Huo Wu seemed to think of something and asked with a smile, "Little Brother Ling Yun, do you think I can eat another Red Fire Dragon Ganoderma?"

At that, Huo Wushuang also looked at Ling Yun expectantly. One Red Fire Dragon Ganoderma had raised his Soul Power by two levels. If he could eat a few more, his Soul Power would definitely surpass Feng Xiaotian's.

Ling Yun pondered for a moment, then said, "The Red Fire Dragon Ganoderma is only a top-grade herb, so you can certainly eat more. However, each Soul Master can eat at most three. A fourth one won't do anything.

"And after taking one, it's best to wait a month before taking the second."

"Hehe, that's great!"

Huo Wu said cheerfully. Although she had to wait until a month later to take the second one, she was still delighted. Her Soul Power would rise again in a month!

Thinking of that, Huo Wu said, "Dad, now that we've broken through to level forty, why don't we hurry to Sunset Forest and get our fourth Soul Rings?"

"Haha, you're right. Let's set off now!"

Huo Li laughed heartily. As a doting father, he would naturally indulge his daughter's every request. Then he turned to Ling Yun with a smile.

"Ling Yun, want to come with us?"

"I'll stay behind for now. I need to consolidate my cultivation, and I also need to master my fourth Soul Skill as soon as possible."

"All right. Get some good rest at the academy, then."

Huo Li nodded. After raising his Soul Power by twelve levels in one day, Ling Yun certainly needed to consolidate his cultivation.

With that, Huo Li set off for Sunset Forest with his two children, while Ling Yun made his way to Fire Cloud Mountain. He summoned the Five Spirit Lock, and the fourth Soul Ring beneath his feet glimmered!

"Five Spirits Power, transform!"

In an instant, a torrent of pure metal-attribute Soul Power enveloped Ling Yun. His body gradually swelled until he had transformed into a large orange tiger that looked rather cute.

What drew the eye most of all were his arms. They were incredibly thick, almost as thick as his body, and made entirely of sturdy alloy. They looked immensely heavy.

Ling Yun now also had a pair of sharp iron claws, sharp enough to slice through iron and cleave gold and jade.

His current form was none other than the metal-attribute beast-type warrior: Iron Fist Tiger!

"So this is Iron Fist Tiger. Its strength rivals Stone Armor Bear's, and it's no less agile than Divine Wood Ape. No wonder he's my favorite beast-type warrior."

Ling Yun smiled faintly. But rather than saying he liked Iron Fist Tiger, it was more accurate to say he liked GG Bond. The only reason the dead pig's transformed warrior happened to be Iron Fist Tiger was just a coincidence.

"Next, let's test Iron Fist Tiger's strength."

Ling Yun looked around and soon spotted a boulder five meters tall. He raised an alloy claw and thrust it forward in a sudden strike.

Great strength, swift speed, and razor-sharp tiger claws—all three combined in a sudden burst of tremendous power.

Boom—

Ling Yun's claws slammed into the boulder, and the massive stone, which had looked so heavy, shattered with a thunderous crash. Fragments flew in every direction.

Seeing this, Ling Yun raised an eyebrow and grinned. "Hehe, Iron Fist Tiger's attack power is impressive. That was just an ordinary punch, and it had this much destructive force. I wasn't even using my full strength..."

"Next, let me try Iron Fist Tiger's ultimate move."

Ling Yun found an even larger boulder. This massive rock stood a full ten meters tall and was more than five meters thick.

At first, Ling Yun had planned to use his ultimate move directly on Fire Cloud Mountain. But if he accidentally went too hard and triggered a volcanic eruption, he'd be done for.

Although Fire Cloud Mountain was a dormant volcano, there was magma inside the mountain. If he turned it into an active volcano, Blazing Academy at its foot would be the first to suffer. Huo Li would never let him hear the end of it.

Ling Yun didn't think he had that much destructive power, but still... what if?

Thinking of that, Ling Yun gathered his Metal Spirit Power, then threw out both iron fists with a mighty roar!

"Ultimate move: Extreme Tiger Fist!"

Iron Fist Tiger's original ultimate move was called Iron Tiger Heavy Break Fist. But after taking the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum, Ling Yun had not only mastered Ultimate Gold Soul Power, his ultimate move had also evolved into Extreme Tiger Fist.

In the blink of an eye, golden light gleamed around Ling Yun's iron fists. They shot forward like cannonballs bursting from their barrels and slammed hard into the boulder before him.

Boom—

Another thunderous crash rang out. In the blink of an eye, Ling Yun had smashed the sturdy boulder to pieces, reducing it to dust!

Seeing this, Ling Yun said excitedly, "This move has incredible attack power. It not only has tremendous impact, but also some armor-piercing ability. It can break through an enemy's defenses and strike their body directly!

"With this move, combined with Ring Fusion, my strength will definitely increase by leaps and bounds!"

At the mention of Ring Fusion, Ling Yun immediately tried to fuse his first three Soul Rings with his fourth.

However, his fourth Soul Ring was a Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring, and its age exceeded that of his first three Soul Rings combined. To fuse all four Soul Rings perfectly, Ling Yun would have to put in extra effort.
