Checking In to Soul Hunting Forest, Not Playing With the Old Scumbag

Yu Xiaogang had his reasons for making such an assessment.

Every student who enrolled had a certificate from Spirit Hall.

The certificate would state their innate soul power level and what their martial soul was.

He had been searching for a suitable disciple, and through his relationship with the dean, he had access to the files of every incoming student.

Naturally, he had already seen the files for Lin Ye and Xiao Wu.

When he saw that Xiao Wu had innate full soul power, he was indeed a bit curious.

That was why he had come to take a look.

However, the moment he thought of the Soft Bone Rabbit martial soul, he felt it was a pity and saw no need to take her as a disciple.

The Soft Bone Rabbit martial soul had a high probability of never becoming a Title Douluo in the future.

His disciple, Yu Xiaogang's disciple, had to become a Title Douluo; only then would it not tarnish his reputation as the Grandmaster.

"Tang San, come with me in a moment."

Yu Xiaogang did not take Lin Ye to heart at all.

Even if it might be a brand-new martial soul.

The Sword Grass martial soul did not look very strong; it was just a bare, solitary stalk.

Furthermore, Lin Ye only had innate level seven soul power, which did not meet his expectations.

For now, he would focus on cultivating Tang San.

As long as Tang San became a Title Douluo, his own title as the teacher of a Title Douluo would resound throughout the Douluo Continent.

All his past humiliations would be washed away.

"Yes, teacher."

Tang San trusted Yu Xiaogang deeply.

He believed this was a man of great talent.

He had been able to see through his twin martial souls at a single glance.

With such profound knowledge, what did it matter if he only had level twenty-nine soul power?

Yu Xiaogang left quickly, and Tang San hurried to follow him.

"Where are they going?"

Xiao Wu scratched her head, truly confused that he hadn't taken her as a disciple.

What was wrong with the Soft Bone Rabbit?

She was a hundred-thousand-year soul beast!

As long as things went smoothly, she would definitely become a Title Douluo in the future.

"I don't know. Perhaps people with great knowledge are just a bit strange."

Of course they're going to hunt the first soul ring for Tang San.

That old scumbag Yu Xiaogang is truly blind!

I'll sneak out to take a look and join in the fun.

Xiao Wu glanced at Lin Ye.

This guy claimed he didn't know, but he actually knew everything.

His ability to foresee the future was truly terrifying.

After finishing lunch, Lin Ye found a teacher at the academy to ask for leave, claiming he needed to return to his village for a family matter.

The teacher was very accommodating and approved the leave request immediately.

Having successfully left the academy, Lin Ye headed straight toward the Soul Hunting Forest.

Little did he know, Xiao Wu was quietly following behind him.

Lin Ye had another purpose for this trip: to check in!

As an important link in the plot, checking in at the Soul Hunting Forest would surely yield quite a few rewards.

He might not care about other things, but he absolutely could not miss out on the rewards.

At this moment, Tang San was following Yu Xiaogang.

Upon arriving at the town on the outskirts of the Soul Hunting Forest, they could hear many people shouting.

They were mostly inviting others to form teams to enter the Soul Hunting Forest.

To enter the Soul Hunting Forest, one needed a permit.

Lin Ye naturally did not have such a thing, but it didn't matter.

He would just sneak in.

The Soul Hunting Forest was so vast that there were bound to be places the guards couldn't see.

Yu Xiaogang possessed a Spirit Hall Elder Token, a gift bestowed upon him by Tang Hao.

Holding the Elder Token, entering the Soul Hunting Forest was naturally a simple matter.

No sooner had the two stepped into the Soul Hunting Forest than Lin Ye followed right behind them.

Meanwhile, Xiao Wu trailed them quietly from a distance of several hundred meters.

She was quite curious about Lin Ye coming to join in the fun.

This guy was so mysterious; she really wanted to know what he was actually planning to do.

After entering the Soul Hunting Forest, Lin Ye paid no mind to Yu Xiaogang and Tang San.

Checking in was the priority!

Not playing with the little scumbag and the old scumbag; getting down to business is what matters!

Getting down to business?

Could it be that he wanted to hunt a soul beast?

Xiao Wu's heart tightened.

After all, she was a soul beast in human form, and she held very strong feelings for soul beasts.

She pondered for a moment, but ultimately chose to continue following behind Lin Ye.

Unexpectedly, shortly after entering the Soul Hunting Forest, Lin Ye found a secluded cave and slipped straight inside.

"What is this guy doing hiding in a cave?"

Xiao Wu paced at the cave entrance, unsure whether she should go in.

But soon, she sensed soul power fluctuations emanating from within.

Could he be hunting a soul beast inside?

Xiao Wu rushed in immediately, only to find Lin Ye sitting cross-legged on the ground.

His Sword Grass spirit hovered before him.

Two thousand-year purple soul rings descended from the sky, landing directly onto the Nine-Leaf Sword Grass spirit.

Purple!

A thousand years!

Xiao Wu's pupils constricted sharply.

Lin Ye had actually hunted a thousand-year soul beast?

This—this was simply too incredible!

No, there hadn't been any battle, nor were there any soul beast corpses to be seen.

So, if these weren't soul rings obtained from hunting soul beasts, what was going on?

Could it be... that Lin Ye was also a soul beast in human form?

This discovery caused her favorability toward Lin Ye to skyrocket instantly.

The world was so vast; it truly wasn't easy to encounter another person who was a soul beast in human form.

It was just that Lin Ye's talent was a bit terrifying.

She could currently only condense century-level soul rings.

Yet what Lin Ye had condensed were actually thousand-year soul rings.

The gap between them was truly terrifying.

So, just what kind of terrifying existence was Lin Ye's Nine-Leaf Sword Grass spirit?

Or rather, the Nine-Leaf Sword Grass soul beast clan?

After entering the cave, Lin Ye decisively chose to check in.

As an important location in the plot, checking in here had indeed yielded generous rewards.

Two thousand-year soul rings.

And they were nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine years old!

That was the max level for a thousand-year soul ring!

As expected of the Max Level Check-in System, the rewards it gave were also max level.

In addition, he obtained another reward.

An external soul bone!

Dragon God Wings!

Also nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine years old!

External soul bones possessed the ability to grow, meaning they could continuously improve as his soul power level increased in the future.

Eventually, they might even grow to the hundred-thousand-year level, or even the million-year level!

Absorbing the two spirit rings took some time.

Fortunately, the spirit rings obtained through the system check-in did not contain any soul shock from spirit beasts, and they could ignore the body's endurance limits.

The absorption process was exceptionally easy.

It took roughly the time it takes for two incense sticks to burn.

This speed was much faster than when Tang San absorbed his first spirit ring.

Seeing that Lin Ye had finished absorbing his spirit rings, Xiao Wu quietly left the cave.

Since Lin Ye had already condensed his spirit rings, she also had to find a place to condense hers.

She could not afford to fall too far behind.

Sister Xiao Wu had her pride, too!

She still harbored resentment over the fact that Lin Ye had innate spirit power at level twenty.

She even felt like she had been tricked.

Lin Ye clearly possessed such formidable power, yet he had never fought her.

The title of Dorm Seven boss felt like something she had picked up for free.

No, it should be said that this guy Lin Ye was too good at disguising himself.

Perhaps because he was a transformed spirit beast, he didn't dare to be too flashy.

Xiao Wu felt certain that her guess was correct!

"Level twenty-five spirit power; it seems the energy contributed by the spirit rings is quite immense."

Lin Ye opened his eyes, feeling very satisfied with his current state.

The spirit skill unleashed by a nearly ten-thousand-year spirit ring would surely be fierce.

However, he should first absorb the external spirit bone; that was a treasure!

With a flash in his eyes, the golden Dragon God Wings appeared before him.

Guided by his spirit power, the absorption officially began.
