Another year had passed.
Soul Hunting Forest.
Since Yang Ming entered the Junior Soul Master Academy, two years had gone by. Even though every level-up required him to absorb three times as much Soul Power as others, after countless hardships in cultivation, Yang Ming had now reached the threshold of advancing from Spirit Master to Soul Grandmaster.
Yang Ming had come to the Soul Hunting Forest not only to hunt and exchange his prey for Gold Soul Coins, but also to see whether he could find a suitable Millennium Soul Beast and obtain an appropriate Soul Ring.
There was no helping it. If Yang Ming wanted to obtain matching items through the system, it was simply too difficult. He might as well try his luck here.
Of course, Yang Ming had refused the Junior Soul Master Academy teachers' offer to lead him. Even when the Soul Ancestor-level principal offered to accompany him, Yang Ming still declined, merely borrowing a token from the principal to enter and leave the Soul Hunting Forest.
Yang Ming was now eight years old, about 1.4 meters tall. Dressed in white clothes and cloth shoes, his once-neat short hair had grown out, with slanted bangs hanging over his forehead. His bright eyes were clear and shining, occasionally flashing with a blade-like sharpness.
Perhaps because his skills gave him confidence, Yang Ming had made no effort to conceal his identity along the way and had not disguised himself at all.
The market outside the forest was as bustling as ever.
