Worthy of Master and Disciple, Showing Off Together So Skillfully

Over the next few days, aside from attending classes and absorbing knowledge, Wang Feng remained immersed in cultivation and researching Soul Skill Paths.

Through experimentation, he discovered that Soul Power was much like the internal energy he had understood in his previous life.

People in this world habitually used Soul Power to unleash Soul Skills and had never considered using it for anything else.

Wang Feng was different. He wanted to use Soul Power Body Tempering to strengthen his physique. Through experimentation, he found that it was indeed possible.

As long as he was given a little more time, he would definitely be able to create a Soul Power Body Tempering ability.

While Wang Feng was immersed in cultivation, he usually paid little attention to Xiao Wu at the academy. This left Xiao Wu, who had always wanted a one-on-one fight with Wang Feng, deeply frustrated.

"Sure enough, my idea for a Soul Skill Path was completely correct."

After several more days of research and experimentation, Wang Feng finally confirmed that the Soul Skill Path he had envisioned was correct.

Once the experiments proved successful, it meant that in the future, he could create powerful Self-Created Soul Skills by altering the activation paths of Soul Skills.

Once he obtained his second Spirit Ring, or even more Spirit Rings in the future, he would have even more Soul Skill Paths that he could alter, and the Self-Created Soul Skills he developed would become even stronger.

At that thought, Wang Feng's breathing quickened slightly.

These experiments were far more impressive than Yu Xiaogang's plagiarized Ten Core Theories.

At present, his first Soul Skill, Green Light Sword Rain, consumed ten percent of his Soul Power with each use. By making slight alterations to the Soul Skill's activation path, Wang Feng could reduce the Soul Power output and even make the Soul Skill stronger.

Of course, such alterations had certain restrictions and limits. He could not casually change them however he pleased.

However, what Wang Feng valued most was the possibility of using those activation paths as references to create Self-Created Soul Skills.

The activation path when a Soul Skill was unleashed was like an internal cultivation method. Wang Feng could use this internal cultivation method as a reference to create other internal cultivation methods.

And Soul Power was a form of internal energy. After experimenting with the fusion of these two things, his future would hold limitless possibilities.

While Wang Feng was researching and creating, Tang San and Yu Xiaogang finally returned to Notting Academy after several days of rest and travel.

Unlike in the original story, Yu Xiaogang had not been seriously injured. By the time he returned, he had almost fully recovered.

"Xiao San, now that you have obtained your first Spirit Ring and become a Soul Master, you can go to the Spirit Hall branch in Notting City tomorrow to register as a Soul Master. Once you have completed the registration, you can receive a subsidy of one Gold Soul Coin every month. Then you can quit being a work-study student and have more time for cultivation and study."

"Mm, I understand, Teacher."

"Eh, Tang San, you're back."

Xiao Wu, who had been planning to head to the training grounds to find Wang Feng, saw Tang San return and happily jogged over.

"Xiao Wu!"

Upon seeing the pretty and adorable Xiao Wu, Tang San happily went up to greet her.

After not seeing Xiao Wu for several days, he realized that he had missed this adorable little girl very much.

"Hey, Tang San, I handled nearly all the work-study students' chores by myself while you were gone. You're a work-study student too, and I did your work for you. How are you planning to compensate me?" Xiao Wu glared at Tang San angrily.

For the past few days, she had needed to wake up early every morning to exercise with Wang Feng. It had exhausted her.

Tang San chuckled foolishly. "Well, Xiao Wu, how do you want me to compensate you? How about I spar with you?"

Tang San still found it regrettable that he had lost to Xiao Wu last time. Now that he had become a Soul Master and possessed his first Soul Skill, he felt that he should be able to defeat Xiao Wu.

"Hehe, Tang San, don't tell me you're still unhappy about losing last time and want to win it back?"

"Since you want to fight, Sister Xiao Wu will grant your wish. But if I beat you, don't cry, okay?"

Xiao Wu loved fighting. She had been planning to find Wang Feng for a fight, and now Tang San had come right to her. It suited her perfectly.

Seeing Xiao Wu's adorable appearance, Tang San could not help staring blankly for a moment. However, he quickly recovered. "Come on. I won't lose this time."

Tang San now possessed his first Soul Skill, and his Mysterious Heaven Skill had also broken through. With his strength greatly improved, he was confident that he could defeat Xiao Wu.

Yu Xiaogang, standing nearby, also wanted to see how much strength Tang San could display, so he did not leave immediately.

"Hmph, I won't lose."

Xiao Wu gave a soft snort and swiftly kicked toward Tang San.

Tang San, whose strength had greatly increased, smiled smugly. With an easy sidestep, he dodged Xiao Wu's kick.

"Again. I refuse to believe it."

Seeing Tang San easily evade her attack, Xiao Wu's resilient little legs kicked toward him with even greater force. Every move targeted his vital points.

Bang! Bang!!

After a short while, the two fought more and more fiercely, yet the victor remained undecided.

"I never expected Xiao San's hand-to-hand combat skills to be this impressive too."

"With such reflexes, speed, and strength, even I might not be able to match him."

Yu Xiaogang, watching from the side, nodded in satisfaction. He became increasingly pleased with this disciple who had helped him test his theories.

As Xiao Wu and Tang San fought, Wang Feng, having finished his own experiments and grown somewhat hungry, prepared to head to the cafeteria for something to eat.

By chance, he saw Tang San and Xiao Wu sparring. After watching for a moment, he walked over.

"I didn't expect Tang San to finish the first round of the lab rat experiment and return so quickly. Hmm, Yu Xiaogang wasn't badly injured?"

In the original story, Yu Xiaogang should have been bedridden for half a month. Wang Feng found it rather surprising that he could still stand now.

Could it be that his green hair had improved his luck? Wang Feng could not help wondering.

"Wang Feng?"

"Hello, Master."

Seeing Yu Xiaogang looking at him, Wang Feng greeted him calmly.

"It's class time. Why aren't you in class? What are you doing here?"

Yu Xiaogang looked at Wang Feng with displeasure. It was class time, yet Wang Feng was wandering around outside instead of attending class. He deeply disliked students who did not follow academy rules.

What does it have to do with you? Wang Feng complained inwardly.

"Wang Feng!"

Upon hearing Yu Xiaogang's words, Tang San and Xiao Wu instinctively stopped and looked over.

After not seeing him for several days, Tang San found that Wang Feng seemed somewhat different.

Was it just an illusion?

Ever since Wang Feng had refused to acknowledge Master as his teacher, Tang San had instinctively kept his distance from him and gradually come to dislike him.

Besides believing Wang Feng to be short-sighted, there was another reason: he did not like people who got too close to Xiao Wu.

"Xiao San, you now possess your first Soul Skill, and it's even a four-hundred-year one. Use it and let me see how much combat power you can display."

Yu Xiaogang spoke to Tang San, deliberately emphasizing the words "first Spirit Ring" and "four hundred years," while occasionally glancing at Wang Feng.

It was as though he were saying, Do you regret not acknowledging me as your father right away?

If you had acknowledged me as your father earlier, then as someone with Innate Full Soul Power, you could have your first Spirit Ring now too—and a four-hundred-year one at that.

"Yes! Teacher, I understand."

After responding, Tang San looked at Xiao Wu again.

"Tang San, you have your first Soul Skill?"

Xiao Wu looked at Tang San with some surprise.

Tang San nodded at Xiao Wu. "That's right. With my teacher's help, I successfully absorbed my first Spirit Ring! And it's even a four-hundred-year Spirit Ring!"

Tang San's voice was firm and forceful. Wang Feng and Yu Xiaogang, standing nearby, heard every word clearly.

It seemed as though he were showing off to Wang Feng, boasting that he had chosen a good teacher and thus not only absorbed his first Spirit Ring so quickly, but had obtained a four-hundred-year Spirit Ring as well.

Yu Xiaogang glanced at Wang Feng again, then smiled smugly.

Although he had not killed the Mandala Snake himself, as long as neither he nor Tang San mentioned it, who would know?

How could he possibly dislike a disciple like Tang San, who defended his teacher?

As expected of master and disciple. They were both so skilled at showing off together. Wang Feng complained inwardly.

He wondered what expressions Yu Xiaogang and Tang San would have if they learned that he had already absorbed his first Spirit Ring.

"Before, I was worried that I might hurt you if I used too much strength. But now that you have your first Spirit Ring, I'm not worried anymore."

Xiao Wu spoke sweetly as red light began to shine from her body.

Under the faint red glow, her eyes gradually turned red. Her ears slowly lengthened and rose from the sides of her head, covered in soft white fur.

Her body seemed to grow slightly taller, while gentle Soul Power fluctuations swirled around her. Then, a yellow Spirit Ring rose beneath her feet.

"Xiao Wu, you have your first Spirit Ring too? And it's a Hundred-Year Spirit Ring?" Tang San was clearly surprised.

"Of course. Let's begin. I'm going to attack."

"Alright. I also want to test my strength."

Tang San's expression turned more serious as he spoke, and a yellow Spirit Ring lit up beneath his feet.

"First Soul Skill: Entangling."

Thick Blue Silver Grass shot toward Xiao Wu like tentacles, looking as though it would not stop until it had bound her tightly.

"First Soul Skill: Waist Bow."

Xiao Wu unleashed her Soul Skill, swiftly dodging the Blue Silver Grass tentacles as she charged toward Tang San. At the same time, the braid behind her whipped up and shot toward Tang San's vital point.

Bang!!

The two clashed fiercely, their movements becoming increasingly violent as the sounds they produced thundered through the air.

Bang!!

As their fight deepened, the sounds of their clashes became even more intense.

"I never expected Xiao Wu to possess not only a Hundred-Year Spirit Ring, but such powerful strength as well."

Yu Xiaogang, watching from the side, grew more and more astonished by Xiao Wu's strength.

Wang Feng observed their battle and silently compared his own strength to theirs.

Before using Soul Skills, he might not be a match for either of them. But after using Soul Skills, that was not necessarily the case.

After all, the Green Light martial soul was no joke.

Xiao Wu's Soft Technique truly was formidable. The moment she closed in on Tang San, her scorpion braid shot out like a black shadow, wrapping around his body as she twisted her waist.

With a thud, Tang San fell heavily onto his back.
