New Entry!

Three months later.

On the outskirts of Star Dou Forest.

Boom!

With a violent crash against the ground, a massive hundred-year Mottled Tiger collapsed. Its aura had completely vanished, and spear wounds covered its body, clearly showing that it had endured a fierce battle before its death.

As a yellow Soul Ring floated into the air,

a young man slowly approached with the Sky-Piercing Spear in hand. Only a little dust stained his body; he had not been injured at all.

"The hide of a hundred-year Mottled Tiger is worth three hundred Gold Soul Coins. With that added in, I'll have enough to buy a good-quality piece of Whale Rubber."

Yun Tian wiped the sweat from his forehead, then sensed the Soul Power slowly rising within him. He would probably reach level twenty today!

After collecting the materials, he headed out. The nearby inns posted commissions, and jobs involving hundred-year Soul Beasts like this were highly sought after.

After all, low-level Soul Masters made up the majority on the Douluo Continent. At least publicly, there were no more than fifteen Title Douluo.

"This gentleman..."

Clack!

Upon arriving at the inn, before the worker in charge of posting commissions could finish speaking, Yun Tian slapped the commission he had taken, along with the materials, onto the table.

Although he was only seven years old, he stood nearly one meter seventy tall. This was also the result of practicing with the spear for a long time. Not only was he taller than his peers, but his strength and physical condition surpassed theirs as well.

"Do you have any Whale Rubber? It should be close to a thousand years old, and the quality needs to be good."

"Young brother, at your age... it seems you haven't reached that stage yet, have you?"

"Why are you asking so much? Just tell me whether you have it. You're making money, yet you still have so much to say?"

The worker saw that Yun Tian was no ordinary person. The faint spear intent that occasionally leaked from him made the worker's eyes ache.

Moreover, Yun Tian had come here to take commissions many times, so the worker was not entirely unfamiliar with him.

Since Yun Tian had put it that way, why argue with money? The worker lowered his voice and said, "Yes, brother, we do. We still have some Whale Rubber in stock. Since you've been taking commissions so frequently lately, I'll give you a discount."

"That would be best."

Yun Tian replied calmly. This man was rather nice, but Yun Tian did not lower his guard because of it. This was not an academy; deception and scheming were exceedingly common here.

Before long, the worker brought out a small bottle of Whale Rubber. Looking at the sealed Whale Rubber, Yun Tian instinctively activated Destiny's Eye. This ability of his could inspect nearly any object.

After confirming that its quality met his expectations, Yun Tian took out a bag of Gold Soul Coins from his storage Soul Tool and placed it on the table. Then he headed upstairs to his room without looking back.

"I'll get a new entry tonight. It has to be rainbow!"

Yun Tian was extremely excited. This entry would determine his plans going forward.

Originally, he had planned to head directly to Heaven Dou City and join Heaven Dou Royal Academy. However, since he was not from a noble family, he needed a recommendation. Furthermore, his current strength was nowhere near enough, and he could easily become a target. Therefore, he decided to wait until his next entry appeared before making further plans.

Inside the room, Yun Tian sat cross-legged on his bed. The Sky-Piercing Spear floated slowly before him, half-translucent from tip to end and wreathed in soft incandescent light like crystal glass.

As his Soul Power circulated, tiny starry runes spread across it. The long tassel on the spear moved without wind, while golden-white flames of sharp radiance flickered from its tip.

Already at level nineteen, Yun Tian began circulating the Sky-Suppressing Spear Art within his body. It was not merely a spear art, but also a cultivation method.

About half an hour passed.

Boom!

A wave of cyan air swept outward, making the surrounding furniture creak violently.

Yun Tian slowly opened his eyes, and a flash of cyan spear intent passed through them.

Level twenty!

The system's voice sounded at just the right moment.

[Congratulations, Host, on reaching the level twenty milestone. Your next self-selected entry is now being issued!]

Whoosh!

On the panel visible only to Yun Tian, a streak of white light descended from above. Gradually, its color began to change.

Blue.

Purple.

Just as Yun Tian thought it might only be purple, the purple light suddenly changed color and turned into dazzling golden radiance.

"Gold is acceptable too, but rainbow would still be best. After all, it has no negative effects."

Then three entries appeared.

[Gold · Creation Exists Alone: Your self-healing ability is increased threefold, allowing severed limbs to regenerate. You are immune to all toxins, but all external healing, Soul Master buffs, teammate treatment, and Immortal Herb benefits will be completely ineffective on you.]

[Gold · Spear Origin Assimilation: All of your Soul Bones will automatically be converted into Soul Bones of the same age that are compatible with you.]

[Gold · Ancient Inheritance of Origin: Inherit the Sky-Piercing Spear's suppressive origin. Your Soul Power consumption is permanently reduced by thirty percent, and your ability to suppress opponents in prolonged battles will not diminish, but your spear speed will be slightly reduced.]

Looking at the three entries before him, Yun Tian's eyes flickered with thought. This was the difference between gold entries and rainbow entries: gold entries came with certain side effects.

Only the second entry was most suitable for him. The Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone was still with him, and once he absorbed it, it would become a Soul Bone compatible with the Sky-Piercing Spear.

The first and third entries were actually quite good as well, but both came with more or less some side effects. Yun Tian did not want to suffer a setback someday because of those negative effects. That did not suit his cautious nature.

"I choose the second entry, Spear Origin Assimilation!"

As the choice was confirmed, [Spear Origin Assimilation] transformed into a beam of golden light and entered Yun Tian's body.

"Looks like I should absorb this Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone first, then consume the Whale Rubber and go hunt for a Soul Ring!"

Taking out the lead box, he removed the 100,000-Year Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone within. Blue-gold light filled every corner of the room.

After steadying his mind and adjusting himself to peak condition, Yun Tian pressed the Soul Bone against his right leg.

[Detected 100,000-Year Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone. Skills: Wildfire Cannot Burn It All, Spring Breeze Brings It Back to Life, Flight. Converting...]

[Conversion complete. Converted into 100,000-Year Rift-Splitting Dragonback Beast Right Leg Bone!]

Afterward, the original Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone changed from blue-gold to silver-gray throughout, its bone patterns gleaming with cold, faint golden light.

Without feeling the slightest discomfort, Yun Tian only felt as though he were immersed in a warm, gentle ocean, with countless streams of Soul Power washing over his body.

His meridians expanded, and his Soul Power grew...

Normally, absorbing a Soul Bone of such an immense age would take at least ten days to half a month, perhaps even several months. Yet because Yun Tian was so perfectly compatible with it, he absorbed it in only about five days.

Boom!

An aura far more powerful than before burst out once again. This time, the furniture could no longer endure it and toppled one after another, while the windows rattled loudly in the wind.
