What Regression? These Were Clearly Signs of Evolution!
Yu Tianheng didn't care, and instead unleashed his Fourth Soul Skill on the tree.
"Fourth Soul Skill, Blue Lightning Entanglement!"
Instantly, several streaks of blue-purple lightning shot up from the ground like vines, Entanglement the trunk of the tree.
The sound of an electric shock rang out, instantly turning the tree trunk charred black.
Yu Xiaogang walked to the tree trunk, examined it carefully, and nodded in satisfaction.
"Not bad, Tian Heng, your Fourth Soul Skill is quite powerful, has strong control capabilities, and also has a certain degree of toxic corrosive effect. It will definitely play a significant role in battle!"
Upon hearing Yu Xiaogang's praise, Yu Tianheng smiled happily, completely unaware that such power was far below the level expected of Fourth Soul Skill.
Flender and Zhao Wuji exchanged a glance, shook their heads helplessly, and could only feel sorry for Yu Tianheng in their hearts.
Back at the Academy, Yu Xiaogang and his three companions happened to run into Qin Ming.
Upon learning that Yu Tianheng had been taken by Yu Xiaogang to obtain his fourth Soul Ring, and seeing the unpleasant expressions on Flender and Zhao Wuji's faces, Qin Ming's heart sank.
Considering their past teacher-student relationship, Qin Ming still asked, "Tian Heng, from which Soul Beast did you obtain your fourth Soul Ring?"
Yu Tianheng proudly raised his chin and replied, "Uncle Xiao Gang chose it for me, the four-thousand-year-old Poisonleaf Vine!"
Qin Ming's face darkened upon hearing this.
Poisonleaf Vine, how could the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul absorb such Soul Beast? It's utterly absurd!
"Tian Heng, could you release your Martial Soul so I can see it?"
Yu Tianheng agreed without even thinking.
"This... this is regression?!" Qin Ming exclaimed in surprise.
Upon hearing this, Yu Xiaogang was displeased. "Qin Ming, what do you mean? What do you mean by regression? This is clearly a sign of evolution! According to Grandmaster theory, after absorbing a few more Poison Attribute Soul Ring, Tian Heng's Martial Soul can evolve into the Blue Lightning Poison Dragon Emperor!"
Blue Lightning Poison Dragon Emperor, a name that sounds incredibly imposing, was actually made up by Yu Xiaogang himself.
But Yu Tianheng listened with great enthusiasm, his eyes shining.
Qin Ming was speechless. He looked at Yu Tianheng and said, "Tian Heng, I'm giving you this advice one last time. Don't follow this guy who's misleading you. You'll ruin your life!"
Yu Tianheng snorted coldly, "Thank you for your concern, Teacher Qin, but I know what I'm doing!"
Seeing his stubbornness, Qin Ming shook his head helplessly and turned to leave.
After Qin Ming left, Yu Xiaogang patted Yu Tianheng on the shoulder. "Don't worry, Tian Heng, you will definitely shine in this competition!"
Yu Tianheng nodded vigorously. "Uncle Xiao Gang, I believe you!"
Meanwhile, at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
Ling Han was sitting in a chair, leisurely drinking tea.
Beside him were Tang San and Shui Bing'er, who were cultivating.
After more than a year of training, Tang San is now attempting to reach level 60.
As for Shui Bing'er, with the help of a Medicinal Pill given to her by Ling Han, she has already reached the peak of level 49 and is currently trying to break through to level 50.
The Feng Shui and Fire elemental families are the forces that Ling Han wants to bring under his control.
The Shui Family has been successfully captured, and the Feng Family and Huo Family are not far behind.
Ling Han sent someone to deliver some Medicinal Pill and also passed on some of the incantations of the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer to Feng Xiaotian.
Upon receiving the incantation, Feng Xiaotian was immediately moved to tears and vowed to repay Ling Han in the future.
With Feng Xiaotian under control, the Feng Family will naturally be no match for him.
As for the Huo Family, with the other two already taken down, how difficult would it be for the Huo Family?
Three days later, Tang San and Shui Bing'er both broke through to the next level.
"Congratulations! When the competition starts, you're going to bring a little bit of shock to the arena!" Ling Han said with a smile.
"It's all thanks to the teacher!"
Tang San and Shui Bing'er said in unison.
"Alright, alright, let's not talk about that anymore. Let's go, your master will take you to obtain Soul Ring."
The three immediately left the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
Ling Han led them to the Frozen Forest on the outskirts of the Far North, intending to first obtain Soul Ring for Shui Bing'er.
Ling Han already had a plan for Shui Bing'er's Fifth Soul Ring: in the original story, he would grant Oscar the sixth Soul Skill, the Mirror Shadow Beast that Copycat Mirror Sausage!
Although Shui Bing'er possesses the Ice Phoenix Heaven-Slaying Sword, she is essentially Control System.
The compatibility between Mirror Shadow Beast and her is quite high.
With 20,000 years of cultivation, Shui Bing'er is now fully capable of withstanding it.
Upon arriving at the Frozen Forest, finding the Mirror Shadow Beast was not difficult with Ling Han's spiritual power.
"Xiao San, I'm entrusting Junior Sister's Soul Ring to you."
Tang San nodded.
After more than a year of accumulation, his skills have improved significantly.
"Blue Silver Overlord Spear!"
Tang San shouted, Blue Silver Overlord Spear appeared in his hand.
The Spear gleamed with a faint blue light, its tip pointing directly at the Mirror Shadow Beast.
Perhaps sensing the power of the human before it, the Mirror Shadow Beast used its signature move right from the start.
They went from one to two, flanking Tang San from both ends.
"A mere trick! Take this Blue Silver Overlord Spear!"
Tang San thrust forward with all his might, piercing through the clone with a single spear thrust.
Wow, senior brother is so strong!
Shui Bing'er exclaimed in surprise from the side.
"He's ten levels higher than you, and his Soul Ring Configuration is also better. His strength is only so-so."
If someone else were to make such a comment, they would definitely be putting on a brave face, but if it's Ling Han, then there's nothing wrong with it.
Tang San, wielding the Blue Silver Overlord Spear, was like an unparalleled spear immortal descending to earth, leaving the Mirror Shadow Beast utterly powerless to fight back.
Fourth Soul Skill, Blue Silver Space Kill!
Several strands of Blue Silver Grass sprouted from different directions, piercing several holes in the Mirror Shadow Beast's body.
The Mirror Shadow Beast collapsed to the ground, barely alive.
"Junior sister, hurry!"
Shui Bing'er responded and charged forward, wielding the Ice Phoenix Heaven-Slaying Sword.
With a single sword stroke, he severed the head of the Mirror Shadow Beast Mirror Shadow Beast, ending its life.
A black Soul Ring floated up; the Soul Ring of 20,000 years, exuded an extraordinary aura.
Shui Bing'er sat cross-legged in front of the Soul Ring and began to circulate her Soul Power to guide the Soul Ring.
Just as Shui Bing'er was absorbing the Soul Ring, the severed head of the Mirror Shadow Beast actually reacted.
Ling Han keenly noticed this reaction, but did not stop it.
Sure enough, a Skull floated out from the Mirror Shadow Beast's head.
Then, the Skull flew to Shui Bing'er's forehead on its own and began to be absorbed along with the Soul Ring.
Ling Han was not worried about the Soul Shock that would be generated by Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring.
Shui Bing'er is Control System Soul Master, so her mental strength is naturally stronger than that of an ordinary Soul King.
With Ling Han's training and nurturing over the past year, a mere 20,000-year-old Soul Ring is nothing to him.
Two hours later, Shui Bing'er had completed the absorption of both the Soul Ring and the Soul Bone.
Under this dual surge, his Soul Power broke through the bottleneck and soared to the peak of level 53 in one go.
"Teacher, I did it!"
Shui Bing'er's face was filled with joy upon successfully absorbing the Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring for the first time.
"Congratulations, Bing'er! How are your Soul Ring, Soul Skill, and Soul Bone Soul Skill? Let your master take a look."
