Su Mo: Time to Show Off

Fuck!

After seeing through the system how the young man had created a newborn Soul Beast, Su Mo cursed fiercely in his heart.

He truly had not expected someone to actually come up with a way to create Soul Rings.

And it was in a direction far beyond anyone's expectations.

Even Su Mo had never considered it from that angle.

Still, Su Mo did not think he was incapable of coming up with it. He had simply never considered obtaining a Soul Ring from a newborn Soul Beast. It would be a blank Soul Ring, with Soul Power not even comparable to that of a one-year Soul Beast. It probably would not have a Soul Skill either, and absorbing it would not cause any evolution in one's Martial Soul.

If Yu Xiaogang and the others saw this, they'd be ashamed to death!

Su Mo secretly laughed to himself.

He greatly admired that young man.

In an era where Soul Beasts had gone extinct, if not for his Ring Condensation Technique, that young man would absolutely have become a savior-like figure.

The method he had researched for obtaining Soul Rings only produced the most worthless white Soul Rings with a one-year lifespan, the kind that even dogs would have disdained in the past.

But in this era, it was a way to preserve the future of all Soul Masters.

No matter how worthless a white Soul Ring was, it was still a Soul Ring. It could help Soul Masters break through their realms.

"Xiao Wu, I'm preparing to reveal the Ring Condensation Technique to the public!"

After putting away Blood Shadow, Su Mo spoke to Xiao Wu.

"Ah..."

"You're revealing it already?"

Xiao Wu immediately cried out in surprise upon hearing Su Mo's words.

"Yeah. You know I intend to create my own Divine Position, so the identity of the savior has to be mine!"

Su Mo nodded.

Xiao Wu knew about Su Mo's plans and supported them wholeheartedly.

"Are you worried Gang Zi will develop Self-Condensed Soul Rings first?"

Xiao Wu guessed why Su Mo was doing this.

"Not Gang Zi. He doesn't have that ability!"

"Someone else has already figured out how to make Soul Rings."

Su Mo shook his head.

"Really? Who is it?"

Xiao Wu's eyes widened with curiosity.

She was not surprised that Su Mo knew things she did not. Over the years, she had grown accustomed to his uncanny foresight.

"I don't know his name either. I only know that he's an ordinary level-twenty Soul Master. No... he should be a two-ring Soul Grandmaster now!"

Su Mo said with a smile.

"Just an ordinary person? How did he do it?"

Xiao Wu became even more curious after hearing that.

"He created a new Soul Beast, then killed it and obtained a Soul Ring," Su Mo explained.

"What?"

"He created a Soul Beast?"

"Didn't the rules of heaven and earth forbid the appearance of Soul Beasts now? How could he do that?"

Xiao Wu's eyes widened once more, filled with both shock and delight.

She did not know where the Soul Beasts from before had gone, but if someone could create Soul Beasts, did that mean the Soul Beast Clan could reappear?

"The rules of heaven and earth probably only restrict natural births. Artificially created ones don't count!"

"Those Soul Beasts that originally possessed the talent to awaken could no longer absorb Soul Power and awaken because the rules had changed. That person succeeded by actively infusing one with Soul Power and helping it awaken."

Su Mo continued explaining.

"Actively infusing animals with Soul Power and artificially helping them awaken..."

After hearing Su Mo's explanation, Xiao Wu finally understood how the new Soul Beast had been born.

"Th-then it really can be done?"

Xiao Wu looked at Su Mo nervously.

"It can. That person has already succeeded."

Su Mo nodded with certainty.

"That's wonderful... sob..."

"Su Mo, the Soul Beast Clan won't go extinct, right?"

Upon hearing Su Mo's words, Xiao Wu's eyes instantly reddened, and she threw herself into his arms.

In truth, over the years, she had vaguely guessed that the Soul Beasts from the past might not have disappeared—they might have perished together.

With the massive surge in the concentration of Soul Power between heaven and earth, along with the changed rules that no longer allowed new Soul Beasts to be born... taken together, it was not difficult to conclude that the Soul Beasts of the past had collectively died out.

Xiao Wu simply had not dared to believe it before, nor had she wanted to believe it.

She did not want to admit that she was the only Soul Beast left on the entire Douluo Continent.

That was why, upon learning that Soul Beasts could still be fostered into existence, Xiao Wu became so emotional that she burst into tears.

"Alright, stop crying!"

Su Mo immediately got a headache.

He did not know how to comfort girls.

"Sob... I don't want to... I'm going to cry..."

"Mmph—"

Xiao Wu could no longer cry because Su Mo directly sealed her lips.

If persuasion did not work, then he would handle it physically!

After carrying Xiao Wu back into the room, Su Mo stuffed a long, red carrot into her, and she truly could not cry anymore.

The next day, Su Mo finally took Xiao Wu to the Spirit Hall Branch in Suotuo City.

He planned to bring Xiao Wu there for Soul Master rank certification and deliberately reveal himself.

Then, he would not need to go to Spirit Hall himself. Spirit Hall would come and invite him.

Although one reason was to reveal the Ring Condensation Technique before that young man did, Su Mo had another reason for choosing to expose himself now.

That was because he now had the ability to protect himself.

Over the years, the thing he valued most was his ability to stay alive.

So, whether it was Xiao Wu's Teleportation ability, Invincible Golden Body, or Void, Su Mo had developed them all and continued to refine them in depth.

By now, his and Xiao Wu's Teleportation abilities were no longer limited to a range of three to five meters. They could teleport across extremely long distances and escape immediately when danger arose.

As for Invincible Golden Body and Void, Su Mo had now developed both into passive divine skills.

As long as his body was injured, or an attack capable of harming him reached him, the passive effect would trigger, and Invincible Golden Body would activate automatically.

Long-range Teleportation, combined with an almost passive Invincible Golden Body—those two Soul Skills alone were enough to ensure Su Mo remained invincible.

Xiao Wu was much the same. They had originally been her Soul Skills.

After improving them, Su Mo had taught them to Xiao Wu as well, so she too had mastered these two life-saving divine skills.

The Spirit Hall Branch of Suotuo City stood on the eastern side of the central city square, a three-story white stone building.

In the past, a Spirit Hall Branch in a major city like Suotuo City would definitely have no shortage of Soul Masters queuing outside.

Some came to certify their Soul Master ranks, while others came to collect their Soul Master subsidies.

But now, only the window for collecting Soul Master subsidies had people. There was not a single person at the Soul Master rank certification area.

Su Mo took Xiao Wu's hand and walked over.
