New Guinea Pig

Yu Xiaogang said, "I took a look and found that this Fire Feather Bird is between 1,800 and 900 years old, which is already beyond the limit of 1,760 years for the third Spirit Ring. If you absorb it rashly, you might be in Life danger. Ma Hongjun, why don't we find another one?"

Upon hearing that he was to exchange spirit beasts, Ma Hongjun, eager to obtain his third Spirit Ring and become Soul Elder, quickly refused, saying, "Grandmaster, although this Spirit Beast Spirit Beast is 1,760 years old, I feel it's very suitable for me, and I've decided to absorb it. Don't worry, I have a feeling I'll be fine."

"Furthermore, Grandmaster, didn't you say before that Third Brother's third Spirit Ring were all over two thousand years old? You said your Spirit Ring Lifespan Table might be wrong."

Ma Hongjun's words made Yu Xiaogang think back to the past. Because Tang San's third Spirit Ring was over two thousand years old, and he knew that Wang Feng's third Spirit Ring was not one thousand seven or eighty years old, he did have the idea of revising the Spirit Ring Lifespan Table.

However, it was delayed for a while due to some things.

Now that Ma Hongjun wants to absorb this 1,800-year-old Spirit Beast, let him absorb it. If he succeeds, it will help him verify whether the new Spirit Ring's age is real.

If it succeeds, Ning Rongrong can also try it later. If both of them succeed, then he really needs to consider revising the Spirit Ring Lifespan Table and then releasing it to shock everyone in the Douluo Continent world.

With this in mind, he agreed to let Ma Hongjun absorb the 1,800-year-old Fire Feather Bird. However, although he wanted to use Ma Hongjun to verify the Spirit Ring Lifespan Table, he couldn't say it openly.

Then, looking at Ma Hongjun with a solemn expression, he asked, "Ma Hongjun, are you sure? This Fire Feather Bird is over 1,800 years old. Are you sure you want to absorb it?"

"Yes, I'm sure." Ma Hongjun nodded firmly.

"Alright then, I believe you can absorb it."

With Yu Xiaogang's consent, Ma Hongjun quickly killed the 1,800-year-old Fire Feather Bird and began absorbing its Spirit Ring.

Since Yu Xiaogang had agreed, Flender, Tang San, and the others, who deeply trusted Yu Xiaogang, naturally wouldn't object.

Immediately afterwards, Dai Mubai and Tang San stood guard to the side, protecting Ma Hongjun.

Yu Xiaogang and Flender sat on the other side, chatting about some things.

Through their observations over the past few days, they all noticed that Liu Erlong seemed to be acting differently.

It seems that many of them look much prettier now. Although they were pretty before, their demeanor has changed since they came back a few days ago.

Moreover, Yu Xiaogang noticed that Liu Erlong's gaze towards him had changed. Although she still liked him as much as before, there were some differences, which he couldn't quite put his finger on.

What Yu Xiaogang couldn't understand was that Liu Erlong seemed to be deliberately keeping some distance from him, just like now.

Liu Erlong, Xiao Wu, and Ning Rongrong sat on the other side.

Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong chatted, while Liu Erlong glanced at Wang Feng from time to time.

She felt Wang Feng's appearance was too coincidental, and for some reason, she felt that the way Wang Feng looked at her was different. It was as if he wanted to devour her. In particular, she noticed that Wang Feng resembled the person from that night, but it was just a suspicion, without any evidence.

"Godmother, what's wrong?"

Just like in the original story, Xiao Wu still recognized Liu Erlong as her godmother. Seeing Liu Erlong looking at Wang Feng, she asked in confusion.

"Nothing! I just feel that Wang Feng is a bit strange. How did he appear by such a coincidence?" Liu Erlong said casually, turning his gaze away from Wang Feng.

"Oh dear! What's so strange about that? Erlong, what does this mean? Are we destined to meet? Besides, Erlong, do you know? Wang Feng defeated our Shrek Academy before. Even Dai Mubai and Tang San were no match for him." Ning Rongrong said, glancing at Wang Feng with a look full of interest.

At this moment, Wang Feng did not notice the gazes of Ning Rongrong, Liu Erlong, and the other two. He was sitting next to Zhu Zhuqing, who was cultivating alone, and talking to her about sensitive issues.

"Zhuqing, sometimes, don't you ever feel that no matter how hard you cultivate, no matter how much you waste a single second, your cultivation level and strength still can't keep up with Tang San and the others?"

Upon hearing Wang Feng's words, Zhu Zhuqing, who was cultivating, stopped, nodded slightly, and asked, "Wang Feng, what are you trying to say?"

Wang Feng said calmly, "I didn't say anything, I just came to chat with you. After all, we've had very close contact, and as your closest person, it's only right that I care about you."

"Wang Feng, you..."

Upon hearing Wang Feng say such sensitive words, Zhu Zhuqing quickly looked around. Seeing that no one else had heard Wang Feng, she turned back and glared at Wang Feng fiercely.

Only Xiao Wu knows about this right now. If anyone else finds out, she definitely won't let Wang Feng off the hook.

At this moment, Wang Feng leaned close to Zhu Zhuqing's ear and whispered, "Your Soul Power is currently level 29. Guess what level I am now?"

Zhu Zhuqing was also curious about Wang Feng's level and asked, "What level?"

Level 38.

Yes, Wang Feng has already reached level 38.

He was level 33 before entering the Icefire Yin Yang Well. It has been almost five months now.

He not only absorbed two Immortal Herbs, but also tempered his body in the Icefire Yin Yang Well. This greatly enhanced his cultivation speed, which was already at Innate Full Soul Power. He also relied on the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the Icefire Yin Yang Well to cultivate. He advanced five levels in just over four months, which felt very slow.

Zhu Zhuqing was stunned for a moment when Wang Feng spoke.

How did Wang Feng cultivate to level 38?

It's only been about four months since Wang Feng left her. He was probably only level 33 back then.

"Wang Feng... are you telling the truth?"

"Of course, if you don't believe me, touch my hand."

Upon hearing Wang Feng's words, Zhu Zhuqing instinctively took Wang Feng's hand.

The two held hands, and Zhu Zhuqing instantly sensed the extent of Wang Feng's Soul Power.

When Zhu Zhuqing grabbed Wang Feng's hand, Dai Mubai, who was protecting Ma Hongjun, immediately became somewhat angry.

He was already a little angry when Wang Feng and Zhu Zhuqing were sitting together. If it weren't for protecting Ma Hongjun, he would have rushed over and given them a good slap.

Now, Wang Feng simply reached out his hand, and Zhu Zhuqing, without even thinking, took it. How could he, as her fiancé, possibly accept this?

Not only Dai Mubai saw it, but Tang San, Yu Xiaogang, and Flender also witnessed it. They were all quite angry. After all, Zhu Zhuqing was Dai Mubai's fiancée, and now Wang Feng was actually pulling and tugging at her right in front of Zhu Zhuqing —wasn't this blatantly trying to steal her away?

Wang Feng was unaware of their thoughts, and even if he did, he wouldn't care.

"How."

"Really, that's amazing. How did you do that?" Zhu Zhuqing looked at Wang Feng with a lifeless expression.

She desperately wanted to become stronger and was extremely obsessed with power; otherwise, she wouldn't have trained so relentlessly.

"If you want to know, I can tell you, and I can help you, but not now."

After making a tantalizing remark, Wang Feng remained silent.

Zhu Zhuqing, who was left standing to the side, glared angrily at him. He had aroused her interest, but now he was avoiding the topic. She couldn't help but give Wang Feng a slap with her cat's paw.

"Success! Grandmaster, I have successfully absorbed the essence."

At this moment, Ma Hongjun, who had just absorbed the Spirit Ring, excitedly stood up.

"It's a success!!"

"Ma Hongjun, how are you feeling? Is there anything bothering you?"

Upon seeing this, Yu Xiaogang quickly ran over to inquire about the situation.

"No, Grandmaster. Not only that, but my Soul Power has directly reached the peak of level thirty-one, and my Soul Skill are also extremely powerful."

After Ma Hongjun spoke with Yu Xiaogang, Yu Xiaogang became more and more excited and quickly took out his notebook to record some of Ma Hongjun's information.

Seeing this from a distance, Wang Feng sighed, "Yu Xiaogang really is a 'good teacher,' using Ma Hongjun as Xiao Bai. Will Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing be next?"

"Hahaha! Xiaogang, you really lived up to your reputation! You actually did it! It seems you're about to do something that will shock the world again."

When Flender saw that Ma Hongjun had absorbed Spirit Beast that had been around for over 1,800 years, he happily complimented Yu Xiaogang.

Yu Xiaogang explained Flender's compliment, nodding and saying, "Judging from the fact that Xiao San absorbed over two thousand years' worth of energy and Ma Hongjun absorbed over eighteen hundred years' worth, the age of the third Spirit Ring I mentioned before was indeed a bit low. However, we can't be careless; we still need to conduct more experiments before we can be sure."

"Next, we'll continue searching for Spirit Beast and find a suitable Spirit Ring for Ning Rongrong as soon as possible."

As Yu Xiaogang spoke, he glanced at Ning Rongrong. Without a doubt, he wanted to test Ning Rongrong next.

"Wang Feng, why haven't you left yet?"

After searching for a Spirit Beast, Dai Mubai noticed Wang Feng was still following behind and stared at him with a malicious look.

"This Sunset Forest isn't your home. It's none of your business where I want to go," Wang Feng retorted to Dai Mubai, then glanced at Yu Xiaogang. "Besides, Grandmaster just said he wants to revise the third Spirit Ring Lifespan Table. I'd like to see it for myself! Maybe I can offer him some experience. You know, my third Spirit Ring is over three thousand years old."

"Alright, Mu Bai, since he wants to come along, let him." Yu Xiaogang said, then continued studying his notes.

"Hmph!" Dai Mubai snorted coldly and ignored Wang Feng. After all, the Grandmaster had spoken up.

The main reason Wang Feng followed the Shrek Academy students, besides wanting to hang Zhu Zhuqing, was to try and see if there was a chance to kill Yu Xiaogang.

Since we're destined to be enemies anyway, we might as well kill him sooner rather than later.

Who told him to sleep with Liu Erlong?

However, judging from the current situation, there really is no chance at all.

However, he wasn't in a hurry; the right opportunity would come eventually.

"Wang Feng, how did you do that?"

Having piqued her interest, Zhu Zhuqing came to the back and asked Wang Feng a question.

"What? How did you do that?" Wang Feng looked at Zhu Zhuqing, puzzled, and asked with a mischievous grin.

"Exactly... Hmph... Fine, don't tell me then."

Seeing Wang Feng's expression, Zhu Zhuqing could easily tell that he just wanted to toy with her. She snorted coldly, turned her head away, and didn't even glance at Wang Feng.

Wang Feng didn't care, but instead observed Liu Erlong in front of him.
