But soon, Yuanen Yehui felt a sharp pain in her head and immediately retracted her Martial Soul...
Yue Zhengyu, who was beside her, helped her sit down and reminded her, "You have just absorbed a hundred-thousand-year Soul Ring, and your spiritual power is still very weak, rest a bit more."
Yuanen Yehui nodded and said, "Mm! Thank you."
Yue Zhengyu sat down unhurriedly and asked curiously, "By the way, Yehui, how much did your soul power rank increase after absorbing the hundred-thousand-year Soul Ring?"
Yuanen Yehui clutched her chest and after sensing for a while, said in surprise, "It's increased by about four levels!"
Clearly, even she hadn't expected to gain four levels by absorbing it!
After all, the last time she had sacrificed a hundred-thousand-year soul beast voluntarily, it had only increased by two levels at most!
Hearing this, Yue Zhengyu couldn't help but take in a sharp breath, "Sss... a full four-level increase? With this, not only have you surpassed me in strength, but you've also caught up in soul power rank."
It was known that Yuanen Yehui had deliberately suppressed her soul power rank to the Fifty-Ninth Rank Soul Emperor to be able to absorb a hundred-thousand-year Soul Ring!
Yuanen Yehui revealed a smile and said, "Mm! After all, the benefits brought by a hundred-thousand-year Soul Ring are far beyond comparison with a Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Ring!"
Based on the current progress, when she reached the Soul Sage rank, she even had the confidence to kill a hundred-thousand-year soul beast by herself!!
Yue Zhengyu stretched lazily and sighed, "Now that's settled, probably nobody at Shrek's inner court is a match for you! Even I would do well to last ten minutes!"
"But still, close your eyes and rest, recover your spiritual power as soon as possible. I remember you still have not infused a Soul Ring to your Titan Giant Ape Martial Soul!"
...
The next day, Yuanen Yehui alone slew a ten-thousand-year soul beast and infused its Soul Ring into her Titan Giant Ape Martial Soul!
Then she returned to her office through a spatial tunnel opened by Xu Sheng...
Just as she was stepping out, Yuanen Yehui was grabbed by the waiting Yuanen Zhentian, who carefully examined every part of her, fearful that she might have any injuries.
Immediately, he asked anxiously, "Yehui, my precious granddaughter, are you not hurt?"
When Yuanen Yehui recognized the man before her, she said in astonishment, "Grandfather, how come you are here?"
She remembered him always being very serious, not like how he was behaving right now!
Yuanen Zhentian covered his mouth and coughed, then said coldly, "Of course I'm here because I was worried about you. For such an important matter as killing a hundred-thousand-year soul beast, you didn't even inform me!"
At these words, Yuanen Yehui bowed her head sheepishly, replying with a hint of apology, "Grandfather, I just didn't want you to worry!"
Yuanen Zhentian's heart softened, and with a wave of his hand, he declared, "Don't let it happen again!"
After a pause, he asked further, "But what is the specific situation?"
Yue Zhengyu, standing nearby, looked at Yuanen Yehui and answered on her behalf, "Yuanen Clan Leader, although the process was very challenging, Yehui has successfully absorbed the hundred-thousand-year Soul Ring!"
Just standing there, Yehui's grandfather exuded such a terrifying presence, his strength must at least be that of a Hyper Douluo!
Yuanen Zhentian stroked his beard, "That's good to hear, good to hear. By the way, you are...?"
Yue Zhengyu bowed with his fist in his palm and said, "I come from the Holy Angel Clan, Yue Zhengyu!"
Yuanen Zhentian's eyes narrowed, "The Holy Angel Clan, huh..."
Although he didn't have much of an impression, any family associated with the word 'angel' was definitely not simple!
He then expressed his gratitude, "I appreciate your company with Yehui in hunting the hundred-thousand-year soul beast this time!"
Yue Zhengyu replied with neither arrogance nor servility, "Yehui and I are friends, it was only right!"
At this moment, Yuanen Yehui's gaze shifted toward Xu Sheng, who stood on the side with a faint smile, having not interrupted their conversation.
After taking a step forward, he sincerely said, "Teacher Xu! I have not disappointed your expectations!"
Xu Sheng extended his hand and gently ruffled her hair, softly saying, "Hmm! However, let's keep this matter under wraps for now."
Yuanen Yehui's cheeks flushed with a hint of redness as she nodded and replied, "I understand, Teacher Xu!"
Teacher Xu really did it, making such a potentially misleading gesture in front of Grandfather and Yue Zhengyu!
Yuanen Zhentian didn't catch on to this point but then remembered something else and said earnestly, "That's right, Yehui, there is something else I need to tell you: yesterday, I decided to move the Yuanen Clan into Shrek Academy, and as the Clan Leader, I will also become a member of the Sea God's Pavilion!"
Yuanen Yehui was taken aback and frowned, asking, "Grandfather, why are you doing this?"
The Yuanen Clan had always kept to itself, avoiding contact with the outside world, but now, because of a single decision made by Yuanen Zhentian, they were moving to Shrek Academy, which was bound to cause dissatisfaction among the clan members!
Yuanen Zhentian knew what she was worried about and spoke in an indisputable tone, "Yehui, you are the most talented person in our Yuanen Clan. Only here can I observe your situation at all times and prevent what happened yesterday from happening again!"
"So, even if the clan members disagree, I will still go through with it!"
Yuanen Yehui pursed her lips in resignation and said, "Grandfather, if you put it that way, do I even have room to argue?"
It seemed that her days ahead were not going to be easy...
...
Elsewhere, the Soul Beast Legion!
Bi Ji spoke with excitement, "My lord, following your method, our legion has already gathered a considerable amount of funds, enough to maintain the normal operation and expenses of the legion!"
Gu Yue rested her chin on her palm and said, "Hmm, although it is somewhat less than I expected, growing the legion is a long-term affair and can't be rushed."
The other ferocious beasts were whispering among themselves, "Our lord really is something, within just two months, she has put our legion on the right track!"
"Yes, if only the boss had sought help from our lord sooner, then the development speed of our Soul Beast Legion would have been much faster!"
"And this is all thanks to the several hundred Mechas and Battle Armors brought by our lord! They have been of great help!"
"Exactly, the boss is just too proud and didn't want to trouble our lord!"
However, no sooner had they finished speaking than they felt themselves locked in by a gaze that seemed ready to devour them...
All eyes turned to the expressionless Di Tian!
In an instant, all the ferocious beasts shut their mouths and remained silent...
At this moment, Gu Yue glanced at Di Tian and inquired, "Di Tian, I remember that the legion started researching soul tools a long time ago, right? How is the progress now?"
Di Tian regained his composure and said with a solemn expression, "We can now produce level 6 soul tools. As for the higher-grade ones, we are still unable to do it."
Gu Yue sighed, "Only level 6 soul tools, huh? While they are sufficient in combat, they are still defenseless against high-grade soul cannonballs."
"Moreover, I don't have time to stay any longer. I am returning to Shrek Academy today!"
Bi Ji hesitated, "My lord, can't you stay a little longer?"
With the former around, any problems the legion faced could be easily resolved!
Gu Yue shook her head, "Two months is already the limit. If I stay any longer, it's highly likely that Shrek Academy will revoke my qualification! And that is not something I wish to see!"
