The Sixth God-given Spirit Ring
The next morning, Shrek Academy's main Training Ground was packed with people.
In the first public training session after Blue Tyrant changed its name, Liu Erlong and Zhao Wuji both took to the field. The news spread, and even the students who usually disliked getting up early made sure to reserve their spots in advance.
A Bronze Bell stands in the center of the Training Ground.
Liu Erlong and Zhao Wuji stood in front of the Bronze Bell, with Flender acting as Referee.
"If the eight members of Shrek ring the Bronze Bell within one incense stick's time, they win. Erlong and Lao Zhao will not use their Martial Soul Avatar; their other Soul Skill are unrestricted."
Ma Hongjun looked at the two Soul Sage opposite him. "Dean, shouldn't we also have some restrictions?"
Flender said, "Yes... you can't run."
Laughter erupted from the sidelines.
Yuan Yu handed the Wine Gourd to Oscar: "Hold this for me."
Oscar looked wary. "Who's responsible if it gets damaged?"
"It belongs to the Dean."
Flender's forehead twitched. "Begin!"
Tang San's Blue Silver Grass spread out first.
Dai Mubai charged at Zhao Wuji head-on, unleashing White Tiger Fierce Light Wave first. Zhao Wuji didn't even dodge; his Powerful Vajra Bear Martial Soul Possession, and he slapped the light sphere away with a palm strike, then blasted Dai Mubai back several steps.
Ning Rongrong's growth rate fell short of expectations.
"The Nine Treasures Have Names: First: Strength; Second: Speed; Third: Soul!"
Nine-colored light enveloped the group. Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Wu circled around the Bronze Bell from the left and right respectively. Ma Hongjun's Phoenix Fire Line burned across the ground, forcing Liu Erlong to take a half step to the side.
"Playing with fire in front of me?"
Liu Erlong raised her hand and grabbed, the Phoenix Fire Line was forcefully shattered by the Fire Dragon Aura. Her third Spirit Ring lit up, and a large area of flames bypassed the front row, rushing straight towards Ning Rongrong and Oscar.
Yuan Yu stood in front of the two men, his sword held horizontally.
Water Pattern spread along the blade, the oncoming fire wave was split to both sides, and a large white mist immediately rose from the Training Ground. Oscar stuffed the Recovery Sausage into Ning Rongrong's hands, and then took off using the Flying Mushroom Sausage, narrowly avoiding the remaining fire beneath his feet.
"Mistress, hit Old Zhao first!"
Yuan Yu's voice rang out, Tang San's Blue Silver Grass immediately retracted.
Dai Mubai charged forward again, Xiao Wu leaped up on the Blue Silver Grass, her legs aimed straight for Zhao Wuji's neck. Zhu Zhuqing cut in from his blind spot, her Netherworld Claw grabbing for his waist, while Ma Hongjun added Phoenix Fire Line from the other side.
Zhao Wuji laughed loudly, and his First Soul Ring lit up.
"The Immovable King Body!"
The golden light shattered the Blue Silver Grass, sending Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing flying simultaneously. Dai Mubai took the blow head-on, his feet sliding three zhang along the ground, a tightness in his chest.
Just as Zhao Wuji was about to give chase, two Rock Pattern suddenly lit up beneath his feet.
"Stone Breathing, First Form: Serpent-Pattern Rock, Dual Extremes"
The raised Rock Ridge blocked his path by half a step. Tang San seized the opportunity, and the Spider Web Binding unfolded in front of him, while Ning Rongrong's power amplification also fell on Xiao Wu. Xiao Wu twisted her body in mid-air and pounced on Zhao Wuji once again.
Liu Erlong did not give them a chance to surround and attack.
A phantom of Fire Dragon crashed in from behind. Yuan Yu turned and drew his sword, Flame Pattern and Water Pattern swirling around the blade. The flames were first parted by the water, but the Dragon Claw hidden inside struck the back of the sword directly.
Yuan Yu's arm jerked, and he retreated to the edge of the field.
"You think you can stop me just because you're at level 59?"
Liu Erlong chased after him very quickly.
"Almost there."
A flash of Lightning Flash beneath Yuan Yu's feet allowed him to dodge the second claw. Liu Erlong turned and swept his arm around, blocking his path to the left and right with flames. At the same time, Zhao Wuji broke free of the spider web and pressed down with a palm from the other side.
The attacks of the two Soul Sage arrived simultaneously.
Yuan Yu did not retreat.
The Rosy Cloud Pattern spread out layer by layer on the Sun Wheel Blade.
"Mist Breathing, Second Form, Eightfold Mist."
Eight figures in White-Clad scattered across the Training Ground. Liu Erlong tore through three layers of rosy clouds with a single claw, Zhao Wuji's palm wind shattered two more layers, and the remaining three, carrying Tang San's Blue Silver Grass, charged forward together.
The Blue Silver Grass is hidden in the glow of the Rosy Glow, making it difficult to distinguish the real from the fake.
One of the rays rushed towards the Bronze Bell, Liu Erlong immediately turned around. She shattered the layer of Rosy Glow, revealing only a single Blue Silver Grass wrapped around a stone.
"To the right!" Zhao Wuji shouted.
Yuan Yu had already carried Zhu Zhuqing through the white mist. Zhu Zhuqing used his shoulder to push off, her body rushing straight towards the Bronze Bell, but at the last zhang, she was pressed down by the increased Gravity from Zhao Wuji's third Soul Skill, and her speed dropped sharply.
Liu Erlong also rushed back, his Dragon Claw striking Yuan Yu's back.
Yuan Yu swung his sword horizontally in a backhand motion, taking the blow head-on.
The Fire Dragon's Soul Power crashed into the blade, and Zhao Wuji's Gravity pressed down from beneath his feet. The barrier that had loosened under the Seven Kill Sword the day before was squeezed by the two forces simultaneously, causing his Soul Power to pause for a moment before suddenly bursting open.
Boom!
Five God-given Spirit Rings lit up simultaneously.
Yuan Yu's aura surpassed level fifty-nine and went straight to level sixty.
Liu Erlong immediately withdrew half of his palm force, and Zhao Wuji also withdrew the Gravity. Yuan Yu, however, stood still, the sixth Rosy Cloud Pattern on his Sun Wheel Blade already shining brightly.
A pale blue-purple beam of light descended from the sky.
Everyone on the Training Ground looked up.
The incense stick on the sidelines was almost half-burnt. Flender didn't call a stop, but simply told everyone to leave the area bathed in the glow of the Rosy Glow.
The beam of light did not bring a deafening roar, but the surrounding scenery became blurred in the light. The distant stands were covered by a layer of light clouds, and the figures nearby also became overlapping outlines. A Spirit Ring with golden threads wrapped around its outer edge slowly condensed from the beam of light.
A deep voice reached Yuan Yu's ears.
"Level 60 has been reached; the qualification for the Sixth Spirit Ring has been unsealed."
"Bestowed with the Mist Elemental Origin, God-given Spirit Ring."
The Spirit Ring fell towards the Sun Wheel Blade.
Yuan Yu sat down cross-legged, his five old Spirit Ring rotating in turn beside him. The new Spirit Ring were initially very faint, but as the Rosy Glow continued to enter his body, their color gradually deepened. Sharp Soul Power swept through his meridians again and again, bringing out the fatigue left from the previous battles.
Sweat quickly beaded on his forehead, but his breathing remained steady.
At the age of six, the first Spirit Ring given to him by the Water God would grow with his body. Now, this Mist Ring was also testing his limits. With each deepening of the Rosy Glow, the stinging pain in his meridians intensified. Yuan Yu did not rush to accept it, but continued to push his power to the edge that his body could bear.
When the incense stick had burned to its last flame, the pale blue-purple Spirit Ring had completely stabilized.
Six God-given Spirit Ring rose up simultaneously.
Water, fire, thunder, wind, rock, and mist.
Yuan Yu's Soul Power continued to rise after surpassing level sixty, eventually stopping at level sixty-two.
With Sun Wheel Blade, the Complete Mist Elemental Mastery merged into his body through the Spirit Ring, and a new sword style unfolded within the inheritance.
Mist Breathing, Fifth Form Five, Sea of Misty Clouds.
Yuan Yu opened his eyes, and a light rosy glow suddenly filled the Training Ground. Liu Erlong and Zhao Wuji simultaneously lost sight of him, and the next second, a bell rang out from behind them.
Clang!
The scabbard of the Sun Wheel Blade rests on the Bronze Bell.
Yuan Yu stood bathed in the glow of the Rosy Glow, six Spirit Ring swirling around him. He turned back and smiled, "An incense stick's time is just right, so let's call it a win?"
Flender looked at the incense that had burned out, then at the six Spirit Rings.
"Calculate."
The area around the Training Ground instantly erupted in cheers.
At the age of twelve, Soul Emperor of level sixty-two.
Teacher Sun stood at the front of the crowd, her lips moving for a long time before she finally managed to utter, "He's only been here a few days?"
Ma Hongjun took the Wine Gourd from Oscar and ran over to hand it to Yuan Yu.
"Brother Yu, I don't even have the thought of pursuing you anymore."
"Don't rush," Yuan Yu said, taking a sip of his drink. "You should go after Boss Dai first."
Dai Mubai was standing nearby, turned pale upon hearing this and kicked the child. The laughter carried far, and even Liu Erlong didn't stop him.
After training, Flender handed the gold-embossed invitations from the previous night to Tang San and Yuan Yu.
The invitation was very polite; Crown Prince Xue Qinghe of the Heaven Dou Empire invited the two to his residence for a chat the next day, and Ning Fengzhi would also be present.
After Tang San finished reading the invitation, he handed it to Yuan Yu.
Yuan Yu's gaze fell on the back of the sealing wax.
There was a very faint Six Wings pattern pressed there, which outsiders would only mistake for the Royal Family pattern. But he had seen it many times in the Worship Hall.
The secret mark left by Qian Renxue.
Yuan Yu gently brushed his fingertip across the tattoo, and a smile slowly crept onto his lips.
After being away from Spirit City for so long, that woman has finally decided to show herself.
