Jun Xuehan listened to Qian Renxue and thought to himself, The only person who can solve the problem of Soul Ring Backlash from Twin Martial Souls... is Bibi Dong, the current His Holiness the Pope of Spirit Hall?
As far as he knew, in the original story, Bibi Dong was the only one capable of solving the Soul Ring Backlash problem of Twin Martial Souls. Moreover, in terms of Martial Soul Theory, she was no weaker than Yu Xiaogang, who was known as the Grandmaster.
As for talent, there was even less need to mention it. She could leave Yu Xiaogang eight streets behind without any problem.
"So you really did know." Hearing the voice in her mind, Qian Renxue silently remarked to herself. She looked calmly at Jun Xuehan and said softly, "The Genius Training Camp is a place that selects geniuses from among geniuses. There is only one requirement for entry: Innate Soul Power of Level 7 or above, and an age under twelve."
"The Genius Training Camp lasts for one year. After graduating from it, you can enter Spirit Academy. If you rank in the top five, you may even be accepted as a disciple by a deacon or elder. Although there are not many people in the Genius Training Camp, there are still close to a hundred. It will not be easy for you to place in the top three. And in the Genius Training Camp, no matter your status, there are no special privileges. Even if I send you in, it will be the same. The only person you can rely on there is yourself."
"So, are you still willing to go?" Qian Renxue's voice was very gentle.
During the months they had spent together, no one understood Jun Xuehan better than Qian Renxue. Though he had always been quiet and reserved, with an aloof expression, beneath that cold exterior lay things no one could imagine. Sometimes, he even left Qian Renxue deeply amazed. If she had not seen it with her own eyes and heard his thoughts, she would never have believed those were things a six-year-old child could come up with.
Of course, there were also times when he made Qian Renxue both happy and annoyed.
She was happy because she had picked up a prodigy who knew and understood everything. What annoyed her was that he clearly knew and understood everything, and even had excellent plans and strategies, yet refused to say them aloud, pretending he knew nothing. Although Qian Renxue could still learn them even if he did not speak, there was a fundamental difference between knowing them herself and having him willingly tell her. The two were inherently different.
One meant that he felt a sense of belonging to her side, while the other meant that he had no sense of belonging at all.
"Are there any top-tier Soul Elders in the Genius Training Camp like Sister Xue'er?" Jun Xuehan asked softly as he looked into Qian Renxue's eyes.
"No. In fact, there are basically no Soul Elders in the Genius Training Camp. There are some Soul Grand Masters, but not many." Qian Renxue gently shook her head. The Genius Training Camp only accepted those under twelve. While it was not impossible for someone to reach the Soul Elder rank at twelve, such people were exceedingly rare.
"As long as there are no Soul Elders like Sister Xue'er, then it won't be difficult. I won't be weaker than anyone my age." Jun Xuehan spoke with great confidence. Though he was only a Soul Master now, as long as his opponent's Soul Power did not exceed his by too much, it was basically impossible for him to lose.
After all, before Level 95, gaps in Soul Power could be made up for through combat experience, combat techniques, Soul Rings, Soul Bones, and Martial Soul Quality, though only to a limited extent.
"You seem very confident. But with your current strength, you truly won't be weaker than anyone your age, and I think highly of you as well." Qian Renxue smiled and gently stroked Jun Xuehan's hair.
Feeling Qian Renxue's touch, Jun Xuehan looked at her and asked, "Sister Xue'er, when will I leave for the Genius Training Camp you mentioned?"
Qian Renxue took out an exquisitely crafted small box from her Soul Tool, along with a long object wrapped in brocade cloth that resembled a spear, and placed them before Jun Xuehan. "This is an approximately Eighty Thousand Year Azure Jade Phoenix Left Leg Bone, as well as a spear I had made to imitate your Martial Soul. After you absorb the Soul Bone, Lie Yan will take you to the Genius Training Camp in Spirit City."
"Although a Soul Bone cannot increase your Soul Power, it can greatly increase your strength. The Azure Jade Phoenix is a Super Soul Beast said to be capable of contending with dragons. The skill its Left Leg Bone provides will be of tremendous help to you right now. As for this spear made in imitation of your Martial Soul, while it is no Divine Weapon, it was forged from High-Grade Profound Iron and weighs one hundred and eight jin. When you practice spear techniques in the future, you will no longer need to summon your Martial Soul."
As she spoke, Qian Renxue reached out and opened the box containing the Azure Jade Phoenix Left Leg Bone, as well as the brocade cloth wrapped around the spear.
Jun Xuehan stared at the Soul Bone and spear before him, unable to help but freeze for a moment. An Eighty Thousand Year Left Leg Bone of excellent quality produced by a Super Soul Beast could absolutely be considered a lavish gift.
After all, although Soul Bones could be bought in certain special places, every Soul Bone, even the most ordinary one, came at an astronomical price—and they were priceless commodities.
Seeing that Jun Xuehan had not reached for either item before him, Qian Renxue asked, "What's wrong, Xuehan? What are you staring blankly for?"
Jun Xuehan gently shook his head. "Sister Xue'er, this Soul Bone is too precious."
Before he could finish, Qian Renxue raised a hand to interrupt him. "I have never had the habit of taking back something I've given away. If it's for you, then take it. Besides, Xuehan, I treat you as my little brother. What does one Soul Bone amount to?"
Qian Renxue spoke very calmly, without the slightest affectation.
Silver eyes and pale golden eyes met quietly. For a moment, neither of them spoke. The surroundings gradually fell silent, leaving only the rustling sound of the breeze sweeping through the treetops.
I owe her more and more. Just the debt of saving my life is already difficult to repay, and now she treats me so well... I'm really not used to this. Jun Xuehan gave a bitter smile inwardly, then reached out and picked up the Soul Bone. He bowed and said, "Thank you, Sister Xue'er."
Qian Renxue waved a hand dismissively. "It's nothing. Just a small matter."
As she spoke, Qian Renxue helped Jun Xuehan up, her exquisite face carrying a smile that seemed capable of melting ice and snow.
Seeing this, Jun Xuehan also revealed a rare, heartfelt smile. It was faint, but sincere, and his silver eyes were filled with openness.
