People in both timelines were stunned into silence.
Three consecutive levels in ten years, and that counted as slow?
Ye Tianyun had actually complained about it. What kind of speed would he consider fast?
One had to know that for many geniuses, gaining ten levels in two or three years was nothing but wishful thinking.
"Arrogant. He's always bragging."
Tang San simply couldn't stand Ye Tianyun. Why compare him to Ye Tianyun? He was very impressive.
Feng Xiaotian was speechless, privately looking down on Tang San. Seriously, you still had the nerve to compare yourself to someone else? With Innate Full Soul Power, you'd gained nine levels in three years, and you were still just a little behind Ye Tianyun.
On the Live Broadcast Room's screen, Ye Tianyun held a medical manual from the academy and began studying it.
The narrator began explaining again.
[Ye Tianyun studied with great concentration, examining various medical manuals and knowledge of the body's meridians. He began creating a new Guidance Method on his own.]
Spirit Hall.
Bibi Dong could see the medical techniques on the Live Broadcast Room. She turned and quickly ordered the people around her:
"All of you, find every book shown there immediately, then assign people to study them. Anyone who manages to develop a Guidance Technique will be heavily rewarded."
She believed that if Ye Tianyun could figure it out, then her subordinates might be able to learn something from the material too.
It would be acceptable if they couldn't match Guidance Technique 2.0 and could only manage a 1.0 version. After all, Ye Tianyun was a prodigy.
"Yes, Your Holiness."
Outside the tournament arena.
Ning Fengzhi watched intently.
Beside him, Sword Douluo reminded him:
"Fengzhi, should we invite some people, perhaps those doctors, to study this? They might be able to develop a Guidance Technique."
Ning Fengzhi hesitated for a moment, then asked:
"Do you think our people can develop it?"
Sword Douluo was stumped by the question. He didn't believe they could, but they might as well try. Perhaps they would succeed.
"Where there's a will, there's a way."
"Good point. Then we'll give it a try."
The Live Broadcast Room continued.
[During this period, Ye Tianyun took the family's meager savings and found some Spirit Masters, hiring them to hunt Spirit Beasts.]
[He didn't go to the academy teachers because he knew very well that gaining ten levels in three years would definitely attract the greed of others.]
Everyone watched the Sky Screen and silently nodded. If they found out, they would definitely take the Guidance Method from him.
As for the people in the Parallel Universe, they didn't need to think too much about it. Ye Tianyun was already the Heavenly Emperor of the Heavenly Court. They weren't people who could spy on him.
[Half a month later, with the help of the Bauhinia Squad, Ye Tianyun successfully hunted his first Spirit Ring: a Ghost Tiger's, dating back to the seventies.]
[Although it was only seventy years old and merely a white Spirit Ring—not the standard for a genius—Ye Tianyun knew very well that even the Nuoding City Lord's son had only a white Spirit Ring. Where was he supposed to find a Hundred-Year Soul Ring?]
"A Hundred-Year Soul Ring? Just a Hundred-Year Soul Ring?"
Tang San cried out in shock. He could hardly believe that Ye Tianyun's First Soul Ring was only a Hundred-Year Soul Ring, and that he could still defeat another version of himself.
Just how useless was that other version of him?
Yu Xiaogang also found it unbelievable. His tone turned doubtful:
"That's impossible. How did he do it? His First Soul Ring wasn't even a hundred years old. How could he surpass Xiao San?"
Everyone on Douluo Continent knew that having a Hundred-Year Soul Ring as one's First Soul Ring promised a much brighter future.
He really couldn't take it. His own First Soul Ring had at least been a Hundred-Year Soul Ring, yet he'd still ended up worse off than Ye Tianyun.
Beside him, the three Soul Saints looked admiringly at him:
"As expected of the Dou Di whom everyone admires. Even with a Ten-Year Soul Ring, he could defeat the protagonist, Tang San."
"Lord Dou Di is my idol."
At Spirit Hall, Bibi Dong, who had taken part in the divine trials, furrowed her brows and pondered.
She muttered to herself in confusion:
"Could it be that he found a way to change the age of a Spirit Ring?"
Gods could change the age of a Spirit Ring. Although Ye Tianyun wasn't a god, his future achievements were no less than one's.
Perhaps he had found a divine inheritance.
But she believed that Ye Tianyun hadn't necessarily relied on a god to defeat the chosen protagonist. Perhaps it was his own exceptional talent that had allowed him to change the age of his Spirit Ring.
On the screen.
Ye Tianyun released his First Soul Ring, his brows knitted tightly as he spoke with unwillingness:
"My family has no backing and no spare money. A white Spirit Ring is the best I can get. I'll have to research this myself and turn my Spirit Ring into a Hundred-Year Soul Ring. If the gods can do it, then so can I."
He possessed extraordinary comprehension beyond ordinary people and even gods. If the gods could do it, so could he.
With cheats like these, why would he waste time joking around?
In the main timeline of Douluo Continent, the Divine Realm.
The gods were all astonished by Ye Tianyun's words.
Increasing the age of a Spirit Ring was nothing to them, but for an ordinary mortal, it was simply beyond belief.
"Do you think the boy from the Parallel Universe will succeed?"
"I say he definitely will. He'll become a Dou Di in the future, a little stronger than a God King, so his talent must be exceptional."
Even now, these gods still thought a Dou Di was only a little stronger than a God King. After all, the future God King Tang San didn't have a Super Divine Artifact, so the actual difference between them was negligible.
The God of Destruction nodded slightly:
"That makes sense. With talent like that, he must be a prodigy. He should be able to increase the age of his Spirit Ring."
On the screen, Ye Tianyun pondered again.
"Hunting Spirit Rings is too difficult for me. I have no backing, after all. Perhaps I can create Artificial Soul Rings. I refuse to believe I can't do it."
People might not know this, but Ye Tianyun knew very well that tens of thousands of years later on Douluo Continent, people would be able to absorb Spirit Rings without hunting Spirit Beasts.
At those words, countless Spirit Beasts were stunned.
Deep in Tiandou Forest, for example, the Sky Azure Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape looked at each other.
"If this human can really do it, he'll be the god of our Spirit Beast Clan."
"Exactly. I hope he succeeds and frees us Spirit Beasts from our plight."
Although they were Spirit Beasts, if Ye Tianyun could create a method that let people absorb Spirit Rings without hunting Spirit Beasts, they would be willing to recognize him as their god.
Even Xiao Wu felt a trace of anticipation.
Asura God couldn't help asking:
"This seems like it might be a little difficult, doesn't it?"
"Uh... it's more than a little difficult. But considering his talent, the Live Broadcast Room must have called him exceptional for a reason. He's certainly gifted."
The gods had all come to recognize Ye Tianyun.
Meanwhile, in the lower realm, Tang San watched the Live Broadcast Room and sneered disdainfully:
"He wants to increase the age of his Spirit Ring and create Spirit Rings from scratch? If that were possible, someone would have done it long ago."
He wasn't sure whether Ye Tianyun could succeed, but he couldn't stand the sight of him.
What kind of person was he? How could he be a protagonist like me, defeat another version of me, and end up as the protagonist? That only made him even more irritated.
Yu Xiaogang was also contemptuous at his words:
"If he can really create one, I'll..."
He stopped halfway through. What if Ye Tianyun really did succeed? He was, after all, the protagonist of another world.
Better not to say it. Getting proven wrong would be awkward, and he had his pride to consider.
