The Rainbow Plume Phoenix, having crashed to the ground, staggered to its feet in a miserable state. There was a trace of fear in its eyes as it looked at Su Changqing, but even more killing intent!

"Beast, since you delivered yourself to us, stay here!"

Before the Rainbow Plume Phoenix could attack, Feng Tianxiang's pressure swept over it, instantly knocking it unconscious.

"Thank you, Clan Head."

Su Changqing thanked him, then gathered all his Soul Power into his fist. With one punch, he killed the already unconscious Rainbow Plume Phoenix on the spot.

A yellow soul ring slowly rose up. Feeling the aura it radiated, Feng Tianxiang could not help but frown slightly.

"This aura... it has probably reached five hundred and seventy years, nearly six hundred years of cultivation. Changqing..."

"Clan Head, I want to try."

Su Changqing's gaze became resolute.

He naturally knew that this exceeded the normal limit for a first soul ring.

Logically speaking, the optimal age for a first soul ring should have been exactly five hundred years, not the four hundred years claimed by some useless loudmouth!

And that was merely the limit most soul masters could endure.

Su Changqing came from a great family of the Heaven Dou Empire, after all. His knowledge of martial souls far surpassed that of ordinary soul masters.

The age limit of a soul ring a soul master could withstand had to be determined according to the strength of their martial soul, their physical strength, and their spiritual power!

Xiaomi's Light Attribute far surpassed that of the Rainbow Plume Phoenix, so he was confident that he could absorb this soul ring with nearly six hundred years of cultivation!

Seeing Su Changqing's expression, Feng Tianxiang fell silent for a long while before finally agreeing.

"Since you have already prepared yourself mentally, begin absorbing it. If anything goes wrong midway, we will do everything in our power to help you escape danger."

"Mm, thank you, Clan Head."

Su Changqing sat down cross-legged and began absorbing the soul ring.

A full five hours passed before Su Changqing finally finished absorbing it and slowly opened his eyes.

Seeing that he had succeeded, everyone's faces were filled with delight.

This was the first time they had witnessed someone successfully absorb a soul ring beyond their limit!

"Ha ha ha! As expected of a genius from my Feng clan, you actually succeeded in absorbing a soul ring beyond the limit! How was it? What is your First Spirit Skill?" Feng Tianxiang asked with a broad smile.

Su Changqing answered, "Clan Head, it is not very convenient to demonstrate. Perhaps another time."

Upon hearing this, a hint of disdain appeared on Feng Tianxiang's face.

"Oh? Everyone here is at least a Soul Sage of over level seventy. Are you afraid of hurting us?"

"Mm."

Su Changqing nodded heavily. "My soul skill does not distinguish between friend and foe and can easily cause accidental injuries. I see that the seniors only have the clothes they are wearing, so let's forget it."

As soon as he said that, all the powerful people present showed displeasure.

A level-eleven soul master actually thought he could hurt experts in their seventies and eighties?

He truly did not know the immensity of heaven and earth!

"Fine, then let's leave the Star Dou Great Forest first."

Seeing that he was unwilling to demonstrate it, Feng Tianxiang did not force him.

Everyone withdrew from the Star Dou Great Forest and began their return journey.

"Changqing, what are your plans next? You seem to be of school age already. How about I send you to Heaven Dou Royal Academy?" Feng Tianxiang said from inside the carriage.

Su Changqing refused without hesitation.

What a joke!

If he went to Heaven Dou Royal Academy, would he not be walking right into Qian Renxue's trap?

What he wanted was to first get through his childhood, then go out and make his way in the world once he was in his teens, staying one step ahead of Tang San at every turn.

"Forget it. I already have an academy I want to attend."

"Oh? Let's hear it."

"Nuoding Academy in Notting City. Mm, that's where I'll go."

Feng Tianxiang:?

Hearing this, Feng Tianxiang felt that Su Changqing might be insane!

What good academy could such a tiny place possibly have?

"Changqing, can you tell me why?"

"Don't you all say I'm a genius? I believe geniuses should not live in a greenhouse. They should venture out more. It is reasonable for weapons to be kept in an armory, but they cannot remain there for their entire lives. People are the same."

"..."

Feng Tianxiang fell silent. After an unknown amount of time, he finally spoke.

"It seems you are determined to go out and gain experience. Fine, since you want to train, I will grant your wish. Tomorrow, I will give you some money and send a carriage to take you there. But when traveling far from home, you must be careful."

"Thank you for granting my wish, Clan Head. Changqing understands."

Early the next morning, a plain carriage carried Su Changqing away from the Feng clan and headed toward Notting City.

After arriving in Notting City, Su Changqing carried his luggage toward the academy gates.

The moment he arrived at the entrance, he saw a black-haired, black-eyed child explaining to the gatekeeper that he was a work-study student. The two then began fighting.

Watching the scene from nearby, Su Changqing immediately found it familiar.

It seemed he had arrived at just the right time! Was this not when Tang San took a master?

Tang San, before awakening the Blue Silver Emperor, was so ordinary. He looked just like some random passerby.

After the gatekeeper was knocked down by Tang San, a bald, middle-aged man with a full beard and a somewhat sleazy appearance emerged.

It was none other than the loudmouth Master Yu Xiaogang.

Damn, that kid looks this sleazy? Do Bibi Dong and Liu Erlong have a fetish for ugly men? Su Changqing could not help but mock inwardly.

Everything was proceeding according to the original plot. After confirming Tang San's talent, Yu Xiaogang decided to accept him as his disciple.

But just as the two were about to enter the academy, another middle-aged man came out.

"Director Bai, why did you come out?"

"So it is Master Yu Xiaogang. I came to receive a student."

As he spoke, he turned his gaze toward Su Changqing beside them.

"You must be Su Changqing, right?"

Su Changqing nodded.

"Ah! Welcome, welcome! Clan Head Feng informed me yesterday. Thank you for adding another student with Innate Full Soul Power to our academy!"

The moment Director Bai finished speaking, Yu Xiaogang's attention was instantly drawn to Su Changqing!

This young man also had Innate Full Soul Power?

If he could also take him as a disciple, who would dare question his martial soul theories in the future?

"Su Changqing, is it? What martial soul do you have? Could you release it for me to see?"

Yu Xiaogang nodded slightly, looking at him with an appraising attitude and his usual expression, as though he could see through the mysteries of martial souls.

"With that attitude, you must be some Title Douluo? Or perhaps a Spirit Douluo? At the very least, you should be a Soul Elder, right?"

Su Changqing's words were filled with mockery, especially when he said the words "Soul Elder."

Yu Xiaogang was instantly struck where it hurt, but he did not know that Su Changqing was doing it deliberately and still maintained a dignified manner.

"Do you know who I am? My ten core martial soul—"

"I know."

Su Changqing cut him off directly.

"Anyone can talk big. You make it sound so impressive, but one look shows your cultivation is level twenty-nine. I have no interest in listening to your nonsense. Director Bai, let's go."

Su Changqing did not spare him another glance and walked straight into the academy.

Director Bai followed him inside.

Watching the two walk away, several dark lines appeared on Yu Xiaogang's face.

He actually looked down on him so much!

Without his martial soul theory, even the greatest genius would be ruined in training. By then, even if Su Changqing begged him to accept him as a disciple, he would never agree!

Tang San's gaze also turned unfriendly as he watched Su Changqing's retreating figure.

This man dared insult his teacher. He had already earned a death sentence!
