Standing outside Suotuo City, I gazed at the familiar outline of the town ahead.

Qin Yun turned to look at the two level 86 Soul Douluo elders following closely behind him.

He instructed, "Next, Rongrong and I will be visiting old friends at the Shrek Academy, where we used to study. It's just a casual stroll to reminisce, and there will be no danger along the way. The two elders don't need to accompany us any longer."

Qin Yun had his own well-thought-out plan.

Xiao Wu is the transformed form of Hundred-Thousand-Year Soft Bone Rabbit Soul Beast Transformation, possessing a unique aura.

They might be discovered by the sect elders of these two Soul Douluo.

To avoid causing unnecessary trouble, he had to get the two elders away.

The two elders exchanged a glance upon hearing this, their faces showing hesitation.

One of the more meticulous elders immediately bowed and spoke, his tone full of difficulty.

"Young Master Qin, before his departure, the Sect Master specifically instructed us to protect you and Miss's safety throughout the entire journey, never leaving their side."

"If we were to leave our guards without permission, we would find it difficult to report back to the sect leader. We hope that you will understand and allow us to accompany you."

Upon hearing this, Qin Yun's eyes narrowed slightly, and a faint but palpable pressure swept across his body.

Although he did not deliberately unleash his Soul Power, he possessed a calm aura far beyond that of ordinary people.

His tone was calm yet carried an undeniable authority as he spoke in a deep voice.

"Uncle Ning arranged for you to accompany us, primarily to protect me and Rongrong. Also, all actions must follow my schedule."

"Now, I order you to remain where you are and not to follow me."

Qin Yun is usually gentle and humble, and rarely shows a tough attitude.

His face suddenly darkened, and his aura became chilling, instantly startling the two elders.

The two were well aware of Qin Yun's extraordinary status in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

He is highly valued by the sect leader and is far superior to ordinary juniors.

Knowing that Qin Yun was already displeased, the other elder quickly suppressed his hesitation and bowed in response.

"We will obey your orders, young master!"

"We will wait here nearby. Young master and young lady, please take care of yourselves and send us a message immediately if anything happens."

"Um."

Qin Yun nodded slightly, his expression softening, and said no more.

He turned around and, with Ning Rongrong beside him beaming with smiles, slowly walked towards the Shrek Academy.

As we strolled along, chatting idly, memories of the past kept flooding back.

Before long, the distinctive, simple, and dilapidated gate of the Shrek Academy came into view.

A mottled wooden door, yellowed courtyard walls, and a simple plaque.

The place remains simple and unadorned, standing out starkly from the bustling cityscape.

Stepping onto the school playground.

In the center of the arena, Yu Xiaogang stood tall and straight; he was the one giving a speech.

On the side of the playground, Flender and Zhao Wuji stood quietly to one side.

Yu Xiaogang then spoke.

"By sealing one's own Soul Power, removing the enhancement of the Martial Soul, and relying purely on the physical body to temper one's physique and hone one's bones, one can break through the limits of the physical body and solidify the foundation of cultivation."

"With a solid foundation, each subsequent breakthrough in cultivation level will be twice as effective."

Hearing this familiar theory, Qin Yun shook his head inwardly, feeling helpless and unable to agree with it.

In his understanding, Soul Master's physique would naturally increase with the improvement of Soul Power Level, Martial Soul Evolution, and Origin Transformation. The higher the realm, the more naturally the physical resilience, blood and qi vitality, and bone strength would advance.

Why deliberately seal away Soul Power and solely focus on grueling physical training?

While it may seem like a diligent practice, it is not actually the best way to cultivate oneself.

In the original work, did his training methods actually work?

I don't think so!

The key to Shrek Academy's members all reaching the Titled Douluo was actually the immortal Immortal Herb from the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

Just as Qin Yun was pondering this to himself...

Flender immediately spotted two familiar figures at the doorway.

He was taken aback at first, then his eyes lit up with surprise.

He instinctively gasped in surprise.

"Qin Yun?! You're back!"

Flender held Qin Yun in high regard.

This is his most outstanding and exceptionally talented disciple in his coaching career.

Their talent, temperament, and vision far surpass those of previous students.

Even after he left school, he always kept her in his heart.

Qin Yun led Ning Rongrong forward slowly, bowing with a slight smile.

"Dean, it's been a long time."

"This time, I accompanied Rongrong to the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt for Soul Ring. We happened to pass through Suotuo City, so I made a special trip back to visit the academy and all the teachers."

Flender's eyes were full of relief and concern as he looked Qin Yun up and down, eager to ask more questions.

"Great! Rongrong has broken through!"

"And you? How's your cultivation progress?"

Upon hearing this, Qin Yun did not hold back his abilities.

With a slight thought, five Soul Ring instantly rose around his body.

Five black Soul Ring surrounded him.

It's astonishing that Qin Yun has already reached the Soul King realm in such a short time.

Flender blurted out, his tone filled with utmost admiration.

"Good! Good! Good! In such a short time, you have already broken through level fifty and become Soul King!"

Such talent is truly rare in the world!

Yu Xiaogang and Tang San, who were standing nearby, looked over upon hearing the sound. Their gazes fell on the five Soul Ring surrounding Qin Yun, and their expressions instantly darkened.

Yu Xiaogang was filled with turmoil, utterly perplexed.

He believed himself to be well-versed in the cultivation methods of all Soul Master and to know all sorts of shortcuts to cultivation.

However, Qin Yun's breakthrough speed completely shattered his understanding of the conventional cultivation system.

In less than three months, he rapidly broke through from level 40 to level 50.

This pace is simply unbelievable.

Tang San's heart was filled with a turbulent wave of emotions, and bitterness and resentment instantly filled his chest.

He possessed Twin Martial Souls, the Mysterious Heaven Skill, and the Tang Sect Secret Arts. He thought his cultivation speed was already unparalleled among his peers, enough to leave everyone behind.

However, during this time, he not only failed to catch up with Qin Yun's pace.

The gap between the two sides has actually widened.

Tang San clenched his fists tightly, a hint of gloom and resentment hidden in his eyes.

He thought to himself: Why? How come his cultivation speed is so terrifying?

"If this trend continues, am I destined to live in his shadow for the rest of my life, forever overshadowed by him?"

"When will I be able to get my revenge?!"

Not only Tang San, but also Dai Mubai, Zhu Zhuqing, Ma Hongjun and others who witnessed Qin Yun's dazzling appearance with five Soul Ring felt a complex mix of emotions and a sense of disparity.

For days, everyone had been following Yu Xiaogang's strict instructions, sealing their Soul Power and diligently cultivating their bodies.

Day after day, they endured tedious and grueling physical training, their muscles ached, their bodies and minds were exhausted, yet their progress was minimal.

Ma Hongjun muttered to himself.

"We're sealing our Soul Power and training our physical strength every day, but we can't even use our Martial Soul. Is this kind of arduous training really useful?"

"Look at Qin Yun, he broke through several levels in a short period of time and directly stepped into the Soul King realm."

"In contrast, we work ourselves to the bone, yet our cultivation has improved by very little."

His muttering was not loud.

However, it was still heard by many people present.
