A Child of Destiny? Well, That Explains It

Xiao Xiao looked at the diary, lost in thought.

She had heard the name Bei Bei before.

To be precise, she had seen it more than once in her diary.

Lin Ye had previously written about the Shrek Seven Monsters, in which he mentioned Bei Bei, saying that he was the captain, the Grandmaster, and a member of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.

At that time, Xiao Xiao's impression of Bei Bei was that he was an exceptionally capable senior, completely different from Li He Caitou.

But today, after Lin Ye broke down Bei Bei's Soul Ring Configuration and calculated it item by item, Xiao Xiao realized that there was so much more to it than just "amazing".

The Seventh Soul Ring, over 20,000 years old.

The first Six-Ring combined take 30,000 years.

Although she is not yet old enough to learn about Soul Ring Configuration, she still has the basic knowledge.

It's really hard to believe that a top genius's Soul Ring Configuration is this bad.

Xiao Xiao bit her spoon, a strange pang of sadness welling up inside her.

She recalled the moment her Martial Soul Awakening; her family was overjoyed, saying she was the most promising member of the Xiao Clan.

But what if her Soul Ring turn out badly in the future? Will people then meticulously record those details in their diaries?

She quickly shook her head, trying to shake off the discouraging thought.

Although she's a bit lazy, she never hesitates to work hard when it's time.

Bei Bei's incident at least reminded her of one thing: you have to take One-Ring Soul Ring seriously, or you'll regret it later.

Wang Dong'er had originally planned to rest. She leaned against the headboard, glanced at Lin Ye who was pretending to sleep on the other bed, and then her consciousness entered the sequel of the Diary Copy.

Seeing that Lin Ye's next topic had unexpectedly shifted to Bei Bei.

Although she was curious, she didn't rush to see them; instead, she mentally compared the two people.

He Caitou was Imperial Family outcast who was forced to come to Shrek Academy when he had no other choice.

Bei Bei is Mu En- grandson and has been in Shrek's Core Circle since birth.

One is driven by hatred, the other is someone born to stand at the top.

But Lin Ye's next analysis surprised Wang Dong'er; Bei Bei's situation wasn't much better than she had imagined.

She quickly went through Bei Bei's Soul Ring information and silently did a few additions and subtractions in her mind.

The Seven-Ring took over 20,000 years, the first Six-Ring took over 30,000 years in total, and the seven Soul Ring took over 50,000 years in total.

These numbers, taken together, are indeed quite ordinary.

It's so ordinary that it doesn't match the "Bright Sacred Dragon" Martial Soul at all.

Wang Dong'er's own strength is not strong at present, but she still has the ability to judge the quality of Soul Ring.

She knew that a Soul Master's ultimate potential was often determined not by their Martial Soul, but by the quality and combination of their Soul Ring.

No matter how good your Martial Soul is, if your Soul Ring can't keep up, it's like putting a bunch of broken whetstones on a divine weapon; even the sharpest blade will be worn down.

That's where Bei Bei's problem lies.

His Martial Soul is a divine weapon, but his Soul Ring are inferior stones that can't even be considered whetstones.

This configuration will become increasingly disadvantageous as time goes on.

She gently turned over and pulled the blanket up a little higher.

Lin Ye hadn't gotten to the main point yet; she wanted to see how Bei Bei would complete her Soul Ring later on.

After all, Martial Soul like the Bright Sacred Dragon can't stay stuck with just a few low-level Soul Ring forever.

If Bei Bei really didn't get the Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring later on, then whether he could break through to the Ultimate Douluo is a big question mark.

[Bei Bei's Soul Ring Configuration shouldn't have been this bad.]

Here's something important to mention: Mu En left behind a Dragon Core for the future.

Who is Mu En? Sea God of Shrek Sea God Pavilion's Sea God Pavilion, and one of the pinnacle existences of dragon-type Martial Soul.

The Dragon Core he left behind was the most suitable treasure in the world for Bei Bei, who possessed a dragon-type Martial Soul.

If this Dragon Core is successfully delivered to Bei Bei, his Martial Soul will definitely be able to rise to another level, and his Soul Ring Configuration will also improve accordingly. His Seventh Soul Ring will definitely not be reduced to fusing with a 20,000-year-old Sky Dragon Horse.

With Dragon Core's resources, Bei Bei's Seven-Ring would at least take 60,000 to 70,000 years to form, and with good luck, it's not impossible for her to obtain Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Spirit directly.

His overall strength will increase dramatically, and his future path will be completely different.

[But who ultimately got their hands on this Dragon Core? Huo Yuhao.]

[Note that it is not said that Huo Yuhao stole the Dragon Core. Using the word "stole" may not be accurate because the situation at the time was quite complicated. It involved Mu En's choice, Huo Yuhao's own opportunities, and Bei Bei's own state at the time.]

But the objective result is clear: the Dragon Core that originally belonged to Bei Bei ultimately went to Huo Yuhao.

After obtaining the Dragon Core, Huo Yuhao's strength increased by leaps and bounds. His already outrageous talent was further enhanced by the Dragon Core.

But Bei Bei got nothing.

He watched helplessly as the Dragon Core that could have changed his fate fell into someone else's hands, and then continued to follow his own path step by step. In the end, when he reached the Seven-Ring, he could only make do with a Sky Dragon Horse that was over 20,000 years old.

Fate was always exceptionally generous to Huo Yuhao, but always just one step short to Bei Bei.

How far off was this step? A lot.

If the Dragon Core had been given to Bei Bei instead of Huo Yuhao, Bei Bei's Martial Soul would most likely have evolved from the Bright Sacred Dragon to a higher level, and the quality of his Soul Ring would have also improved accordingly.

The Soul Beast he can choose afterward are completely different from those of the Sky Dragon Horse.

If he had received the Dragon Core's blessing earlier, the age of his first few Soul Ring might have been increased.

One-Ring of One-Ring snowballs, his overall Soul Ring Configuration will eventually be at least a level higher than it is now.

But there are no "what ifs" in life.

Dragon Core was in Huo Yuhao's pocket, Bei Bei's snowball never got going.

That's fate.

Some things, once slipped through your fingers, can never be retrieved.

Shrek Academy.

Zhang Lexuan stood by the office window, holding a cup of tea that had gone cold.

She had been busy all day and had just sat down to catch her breath when her consciousness automatically sank into Diary Copy.

When she saw the part about "Mu En's Dragon Core", she stopped moving and took a while before slowly placing the teacup on the windowsill.

Zhang Lexuan didn't know much about Mu En's affairs, after all, it was the most core secret of the Sea God Pavilion.

But she knew that the Dragon Core condensed from the life's cultivation of Ultimate Douluo like Mu En was fatally attractive to dragon-type Soul Master.

If Bei Bei really gets his hands on that Dragon Core, his achievements will definitely be far greater than what he has now.

But Huo Yuhao ended up getting the Dragon Core Pill.

Zhang Lexuan didn't know the specific details of the future, nor did she want to speculate about anyone.

But she knew one thing very well: at Shrek, resource allocation was never just about who was suitable, but also about timing and luck.

Huo Yuhao is the kind of person who always manages to appear at the right place at the right time; Bei Bei's luck is clearly a notch below his.

However, Zhang Lexuan thought that since Huo Yuhao was the protagonist and the lucky one, it was only natural that all the good things would go to Huo Yuhao.
