"Mm, my first Soul Ring was exactly a thousand years old, and just as I expected, its Soul Skill was First Bullet. The target struck by it would experience time accelerated tenfold."
"My second Soul Ring was three thousand five hundred years old, and its Soul Skill was Second Bullet. The flow of time for the target struck by it would slow down tenfold."
"Should I say that the gap between people truly differs? If I hadn't been born into a princely family and grown up eating Soul Beast meat and soaking in all kinds of precious medicinal baths, there was no way my first Soul Ring could have reached the thousand-year level."
"Besides, the effects of my Soul Skills are practically universal. They can be used in battle or to assist teammates. Is this the power of time? It really is terrifying. This ability alone is enough to make any genius on Douluo Continent pale in comparison."
"I'd wager that even the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul, the inherited Martial Soul of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, doesn't have support effects as terrifying as my Zafkiel. And don't forget, my Soul Rings are only at the thousand-year level right now. Once I raise their age in the future, my Soul Skills will only become even more terrifying."
After absorbing the two Thousand-Year Soul Rings, Yun Duo sensed the age of his Soul Rings and the effects of his Soul Skills.
As expected, the effects of the Soul Skills were exactly as he had imagined.
At the same time, he thought about how terrifying it would be if he raised all of his Soul Rings to the hundred-thousand-year level in the future.
"L-Little Yun Duo, Auntie remembers that you awakened two Martial Souls, right? Then these two purple Thousand-Year Soul Rings on your body are...?"
While Yun Duo was still lost in thought about the future, Shui Yunxi's voice sounded from across from him.
At that moment, Shui Yunxi, who was sitting on the ground resting and recovering her Soul Power, was also stunned by the two purple Thousand-Year Soul Rings that had suddenly appeared around Yun Duo.
Clearly, even though Shui Yunxi was a Soul Douluo-level Soul Master, the current situation had exceeded the bounds of her understanding. She naturally had no idea that Divine Spirit Inheritance and God-Bestowed Spirit Rings existed on Douluo Continent.
"Aunt Yunxi, the details are rather complicated. Rest and recover your Soul Power first. I'll go deal with some matters outside the residence. Dugu Bo also happened to arrive in Skywater City, so I'll receive him while I'm out. I'll explain everything to you afterward."
Faced with Shui Yunxi's shock, Yun Duo planned to resolve the trouble outside first, receive Dugu Bo along the way, and then explain his situation to the two elders of his family.
Besides, after awakening the memories of his previous life, he had originally intended to find time to visit Dugu Bo in Heaven Dou City and help both him and Dugu Yan eliminate the toxins inherent in their Jade Phosphor Serpent Martial Souls.
He also wanted to use the Immortal Herbs in the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well to enhance Dugu Bo's strength, allowing him to cast off the disgraceful title of a Titled Douluo.
Naturally, Shui Yunxi, this Soul Douluo, could not be left out either. After taking Immortal Herbs, her strength would also rise rapidly.
Of course, it would be even better if Shui Yunxi could directly break through to become a Titled Douluo after taking the Immortal Herbs.
And even if she truly could not break through to the Titled Douluo rank, Yun Duo and the Shui Family had enough family resources to produce several Ten Thousand Year Soul Bones. They could simply pile them onto Shui Yunxi until she became a Titled Douluo.
"Dugu Bo has come to Skywater City? Very well, Little Yun Duo. Since you've already awakened your Martial Soul, it's time for you to gradually take on the responsibilities expected of a royal descendant."
"Of course, Auntie will help you with that as well. If there's anything you don't understand, you can always ask Auntie."
Seeing Yun Duo's calm and composed manner in the face of a sudden incident, Shui Yunxi suddenly realized that the child had grown up.
While Yun Duo and Shui Yunxi were still inside the room, several hundred meters away from the Prince's Residence, some chaos had broken out because of the pillar of light that shot into the sky during Yun Duo's Martial Soul awakening.
At that moment, several groups were confronting one another.
"Yu Dabao, you dare obstruct Spirit Hall from carrying out its duties? Move aside at once!"
"Heh, Mark Xier, why is Spirit Hall conducting business at the Prince's Residence of my Heaven Dou Empire? Don't tell me you intend to openly assassinate Prince Yun?"
The old man named Mark Xier was the master of the Skywater City Martial Soul Main Hall mentioned by Shui Yunxi earlier. He was a level seventy-nine Soul Sage.
The person confronting him was Yu Dabao, a commander of the Prince's Residence. He was Yu Hairou's father, Yu Hairou being a member of the Tianshui Academy Team from Shui Bing'er's original generation, and he was also a level seventy-three Soul Sage.
Of course, even though Yu Dabao was weaker than Mark Xier, he was not afraid in the slightest.
That was because behind Yu Dabao stood five hundred soldiers clad in full suits of refined iron armor, armed with spears, every one of them a Soul Master.
Naturally, this army of five hundred Soul Masters was one of the Yun Duo Family's foundations, and it had also received no small amount of help from the Shui Family and Skywater Academy.
After all, before Yun Duo's grandfather obtained the fief of Skywater City, the Shui Family had already lived and multiplied here for over a hundred years. They had even established Skywater Academy in this city.
Over the past century, even Skywater Academy itself had no idea how many female Soul Masters it had trained. Some of its graduates ventured across the continent, some became instructors at the academy, while others simply settled down in Skywater City.
It was also these female Soul Masters who had graduated from Skywater Academy that made the former Far North City famous across all of Douluo Continent, leading it to be renamed Skywater City.
However, it was precisely because Skywater City was the largest gathering place of female Soul Masters on all of Douluo Continent that it attracted countless family factions and talented commoner Soul Masters seeking spouses.
Yu Dabao was naturally one of them. Not only had he followed Yun Duo's father into battle, but he had also married a member of the Tianshui Shui Family. His daughter was likewise studying at Skywater Academy.
It could be said that aside from Soul Masters who had their own family or sect factions, any Soul Master who found a partner in Skywater City would basically join Skywater City and settle down there.
And this was precisely why Yun Duo's late parents, after his grandfather passed away,
despite knowing that he and Dugu Yan had an engagement, were still willing to risk offending Dugu Bo and arrange another engagement between him and the Tianshui Shui Family.
And because of this, given the life-and-death friendship between his grandfather and Dugu Bo, no matter what, his father would never have called Dugu Bo "Senior."
Instead, he would have been like that old fox Ning Fengzhi, constantly claiming talented juniors as his own and having them call him Uncle Ning.
