Teacher, Let's Go Big!

Dugu Bo was among those who had personally witnessed the entire process of She Xian using immortal herbs to refine Soul Rings.

Yet when the boy truly revealed those two purple Soul Rings, his heart still twitched.

His first Soul Ring was already a thousand years old, while his second was nearing six thousand years!

This little ancestor was not only a genius with Twin Martial Souls.

Even his Soul Ring configuration ground Douluo Continent's soul master theories beneath its feet.

Compared to this genius, that boy was practically nothing!

"Teacher, Grandpa, don't be so shocked just yet."

She Xian clapped his hands, drawing everyone's attention back as his expression suddenly turned exceedingly serious.

"After absorbing this Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and forming my second Soul Ring, my White Snake Martial Soul awakened another utterly outrageous talent."

Qian Renxue's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly. "What talent?"

She understood better than anyone how effective She Xian's Water Vein Affinity talent was. It was comparable to a Ten Thousand Year amplification soul skill.

Now that another new talent had appeared—one even She Xian himself found outrageous—she naturally took it seriously.

The corners of She Xian's mouth curled up, revealing a foxlike slyness.

"My new talent ability is called [White Snake Bearing Ganoderma]."

"The effect is simple: once every year, whenever I personally kill a soul beast, it is guaranteed to drop a Soul Bone!"

"Furthermore, my chances of obtaining Soul Bones from killing soul beasts will also receive a permanent additional increase!"

"..."

A breeze passed through the valley, yet it could not carry away the raging waves surging through their hearts.

A guaranteed Soul Bone drop?

What the hell did that even mean?!

Soul Bones were the most precious and scarce treasures on the Douluo Continent!

Countless Title Douluo could spend their entire lives without ever obtaining a suitable, top-quality Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone.

Even Spirit Hall, with its accumulated foundation of ten thousand years, had only a limited number of Soul Bones in reserve.

Yet She Xian before them possessed a heaven-defying ability that could steadily produce one Soul Bone every year!

A soul master lived for at least a hundred years. Over a hundred years, that meant a hundred Soul Bones!

If they were all Ten Thousand Year Soul Bones, wouldn't they be able to assemble an army of powerful experts?!

This was a living, walking treasure vault of Soul Bones!

"G-guaranteed Soul Bone drops?!"

Even She Long stuttered, his old face turning red from holding back his emotions.

"Xian'er, don't joke with Grandpa about something like this."

"If this is real, the entire continent will go mad once word gets out!"

Ci Xue Douluo's dead-fish eyes widened as well, and he swallowed with difficulty.

Qian Renxue's breathing quickened slightly. For the first time, an indescribable emotion appeared on her noble, elegant face.

"Xian'er, this matter is of great importance. Everything you said... is true?" Qian Renxue stared at She Xian with blazing eyes.

"Teacher, when have I ever lied to you?" She Xian blinked, wearing an innocent and pure expression.

"The cooldown for [White Snake Bearing Ganoderma] began the moment it awakened today. In other words, I have an excellent chance right now to guarantee a Soul Bone drop!"

"It has a one-year cooldown. It would be a waste not to use it."

"Teacher, if we don't go big, wouldn't we be wasting this talent for nothing?"

As he spoke, She Xian turned around and swept his gaze across the lineup before him.

Snake Lance Douluo, Rank 93 Title Douluo!

Ci Xue Douluo, Rank 93 Title Douluo!

Jade Phosphor Douluo, Rank 91 Title Douluo!

A full three Title Douluo!

With this lineup, they could swagger through Sunset Forest and still think the paths were too wide.

"Grandpa She and Grandpa Ci Xue are here, along with Senior Dugu."

She Xian rubbed his hands together, his eyes gleaming with eager excitement and hidden mischief.

"With three Title Douluo as muscle, we'd be letting this dream team down if we didn't find a powerful soul beast to take down."

A brilliant gleam burst forth in Qian Renxue's eyes.

She was an ambitious ruler.

She was also a proud prodigy eager to prove herself.

The greater the value She Xian displayed, the stronger the expectations and emotional dependence in her heart became.

"What a fine 'waste not, want not'!"

A breathtaking curve lifted Qian Renxue's lips, her nobility carrying an edge of fierce dominance.

"Since we are hunting for a Soul Bone, we absolutely cannot waste this guaranteed chance!"

She turned toward Dugu Bo, her cold gaze sweeping over him like a blade. "Dugu Bo, you have occupied Sunset Forest for many years. You should know the distribution of its soul beasts like the back of your hand."

"Tell me, where is the oldest and strongest soul beast in this forest?"

Dugu Bo's entire body trembled.

Facing Qian Renxue's terrifying aura unique to one in power, along with the two Title Douluo beside her who were eyeing him unfavorably, the old poisoner did not dare conceal anything.

After pondering for a moment, he hurriedly said, "In reply to the Young Master, I do know of an extremely terrifying beast deep within Sunset Forest!"

"At the deepest part of the northern region of Sunset Forest lies a vast marsh covered in miasma."

"A Green-Scaled Giant Python dwells there. When I passed through that place years ago, I briefly exchanged blows with it. Its cultivation was at least fifty or sixty thousand years!"

"A Green-Scaled Giant Python of fifty or sixty thousand years? And it's a snake-type soul beast?"

She Long's eyes lit up.

"Xian'er's Martial Soul is also snake-type. If that Green-Scaled Giant Python drops a Soul Bone, both its quality and compatibility will definitely be top-tier!"

"Sixty thousand years..."

Qian Renxue murmured, cold and resolute light flickering within her phoenix eyes.

Ordinary soul masters often required the strength of an entire team to hunt a fifty-thousand-year soul beast.

But they had three Title Douluo on their side.

A mere soul beast of fifty or sixty thousand years was nothing more than meat on the chopping block.

Qian Renxue suddenly swept out her sleeve, her wide gold-threaded robe cutting a sharp arc through the air as her commanding voice echoed through the valley.

"Dugu Bo, lead the way."

"Today, we hunt this Green-Scaled Giant Python and claim its bone for Xian'er!"

"This subordinate obeys!"

The three Title Douluo answered in unison, their formidable Soul Power pressure shooting into the heavens!

Black mud churned, and a foul stench filled the air.

The Silent Marsh in northern Sunset Forest was shrouded year-round in a layer of sickly green miasma.

Poison lizards and water snakes, some hundreds or thousands of years old, occasionally darted through the slick black mud.

Sensing the vast pressure faintly emanating from the group, they flicked their tails and fled desperately into the depths of the mire.

"Young Master, Young Lord, this Silent Marsh is where I encountered that Green-Scaled Giant Python all those years ago."

Dugu Bo bent slightly at the waist as he cautiously led the way ahead, his attitude as respectful as an old steward from a wealthy household.

With his hands tucked into his pockets, She Xian leisurely stepped across fallen logs, showing not the slightest sense of urgency despite being in dangerous territory.

He silently called out in his mind, "Little White, Your Majesty the Queen, can you figure out which mud pit that big snake is hiding in?"

Within his sea of consciousness, Medusa Queen's proud, icy voice rang out first, filled with undisguised disdain:

"Hmph. A foul-smelling mongrel python with impure blood dares call itself a great snake?"

Compared to Medusa Queen's supreme arrogance, Little White's voice was much gentler.

"Husband, thirty zhang northeast. A massive creature is lurking a hundred meters beneath that black mud pool. It should be the Green-Scaled Giant Python that Poison Douluo mentioned."
