Chapter 16: Old Jerry becomes a Spirit Master!

There are no Spiritual attribute Spirit Beasts in the Soul Hunting Forest, so in order to obtain the second Spirit Ring, Su Wen can only make a trip to the Star Dou Great Forest.

And this time, he doesn't plan to come back.

After Tang San returned, Su Wen also went to the Dean's office to submit his graduation application.

"Graduating early?" Looking at Su Wen, the Bald Dean confirmed again, "Are you sure?"

"Dean, I'm very sure." Su Wen's gaze was very firm.

The Dean rubbed his bald head, didn't stop Su Wen, and began to process his graduation procedures.

"This is the recommendation letter from Nuoding Primary Spirit Master Academy. If you want to join the Intermediate Spirit Master Academy, you should be able to use this recommendation letter."

Su Wen took the recommendation letter.

He knew that he probably wouldn't need it.

The Spirit Master Academy is very good, with many facilities. If he can stand out, he will be strongly nurtured for the Spirit Master Competition to be able to achieve good results. But Su Wen is still far from all of this at the moment.

"The Spirit Master Competition is at least six years away."

With six years of time, from level twenty to level forty, there is definitely hope, so Su Wen is not opposed to participating in the Spirit Master Competition. However, even if he wants to join the Advanced Spirit Master Academy to participate in the Spirit Master Competition, Su Wen probably won't need the recommendation letter from Nuoding City's Primary Spirit Master Academy.

What's truly important is always one's strength.

As long as the talent is there, no academy will refuse.

"Brother Wen, are you really leaving?" Xiaopang was a little reluctant.

Over these four years, although Su Wen has been focusing on cultivation, he has also given Xiaopang a lot of guidance, which has greatly improved Xiaopang's staff skills and Soul Power cultivation.

For Xiaopang, who only has half a level of Innate Soul Power, in just four and a half years, he has managed to cultivate his Soul Power to level nine. This already sufficiently illustrated how important Su Wen's guidance has been.

Before graduating from sixth grade, Xiaopang has hopes of obtaining his first Spirit Ring, becoming a true Spirit Master!

This is much better than Old Jerry, who also has only half a level of Innate Soul Power.

"Xiaopang, don't slack off in your cultivation at the academy alone. Although breaking through from level nine to level ten is difficult, given your current conditions, as long as you persist, you will definitely be able to break through."

"I will work hard on my cultivation!"

Su Wen nodded.

He didn't let Xiaopang stay at level ten like himself, accumulating Origin Soul Power to prepare for the Evolution of the first Spirit Ring.

That's unnecessary.

The Martial Spirit Space isn't something that can be easily sensed.

Furthermore, Su Wen didn't mention the requirement of the hundred-year Spirit Ring to Xiaopang either.

Even if one joins the Spirit Hall, it's not guaranteed to have such a configuration for the first Spirit Ring.

Su Yuntao, Sisi and Feng Yuan. All of their first Spirit Rings are just a white ten-year Spirit Ring.

Even if it's close to a hundred years, it's still a white Spirit Ring.

...

New Moon Village.

"Grandpa Jerry, I will be leaving soon"

"Xiaowen, have you really made up your mind?"

"Yes."

Old Jerry sighed, saying, "Well, well, you've always been very smart since you were little, knowing what you want to do. I won't stop you, but being so young outside, you must be careful."

Old Jerry isn't worried about Su Wen's intelligence; he's only concerned that Su Wen might be too naive and not understand the dangers of society.

"Grandpa Jerry, I don't plan to leave just yet." Su Wen smiled bitterly. "I'm planning to cultivate for a while longer, and when I'm ready, then I'll go get my second Spirit Ring."

"By the way, Grandpa Jerry, didn't you mention that you had a breakthrough before? did you absorb a Spirit Ring?"

Su Wen has now developed a complete route for Soul Power operation from his Internal Strength, which can preliminarily enhance the speed of Soul Power operation and cultivation.

He also taught Internal Strength to Old Jerry.

After Old Jerry obtained Internal Strength and naturally broke through to level ten by operating Soul Power with the complete Internal Strength route,

"Not yet," Old Jerry shook his head.

To obtain a Spirit Ring, one has to hunt Spirit Beasts, but he doesn't have that ability.

Moreover, entering the Soul Hunting Forest also requires a warrant from the Spirit Hall and the sponsorship of three nobles, but where could he find people to vouch for him?

Therefore, after breaking through level ten, he only intends to rely on luck. If he can encounters Spirit Beasts in the wild and has a chance to kill them, he will absorb the Spirit Ring.

"Obtaining the warrant and hunting Spirit Beasts are not difficult," Su Wen said, indicating that these are not problems. "Grandpa Jerry, your lifelong wish is to become a Spirit Master, and I will definitely help you fulfill that wish."

Su Wen now has the ability to hunt Spirit Beasts.

Although he hasn't obtained the second Spirit Ring yet, Su Wen's overall qualities are definitely not inferior to Su Yuntao and the others.

Moreover, Su Wen's First Spirit Skill is over three hundred years old, with remarkable effects, capable of battling even hundred-year Spirit Beasts.

If handled cautiously, by only hunting ten-year Spirit Beasts or easily killable hundred-year Spirit Beasts, there should be no accidents.

"Although the information on Spirit Beasts in the Nuoding City Branch Spirit Hall is not particularly detailed, it is sufficient to help me identify various types of Spirit Beasts and assess their strength in the Soul Hunting Forest."

To hunt Spirit Beasts, one must first understand them; otherwise, you wouldn't even know how you died. And Su Wen currently has enough ability in this regard.

"Grandpa, get ready, we'll go hunt Spirit Beasts tomorrow."

Old Jerry nodded repeatedly, smiling broadly.

Although he could quickly obtain his first Spirit Ring this way, he still worriedly asked, "Xiaowen, are you sure it won't be dangerous? You're still young, you can't have accidents just to hunt Spirit Beasts for me."

Over the years, he has heard of many Spirit Masters who died at the hands of Spirit Beasts in pursuit of Spirit Rings.

"Don't worry, Grandpa. Hundred-year Spirit Beasts might cause me some trouble, but killing Spirit Beasts under a hundred years is easy." Su Wen reassured, patting his chest.

...

The next day,

Su Wen took Old Jerry to the Branch Spirit Hall and asked Su Yuntao to help him apply for a warrant.

"Xiaowen, are you sure it's okay to go alone?" Su Yuntao couldn't help but express his concern.

"Don't worry, Brother Tao. I have completely mastered the information about Spirit Beasts in the library. If I encounter Spirit Beasts I can't defeat, I can still escape. I won't overestimate my abilities and challenge Spirit Beasts I can't beat."

"Well, just wander around the outskirts then. It might not be the most efficient, but at least it's safe."

"Okay."

With the warrant in hand, Su Wen took Old Jerry out of the Spirit Hall.

Watching Su Wen and Old Jerry's figures fade away, Su Yuntao couldn't help but sigh, "Old Jerry is really lucky."

...

Soul Hunting Forest.

Su Wen and Old Jerry walked in slowly.

As they approached, a guard came forward and said, "To enter the Soul Hunting Forest, please present the warrant from the Spirit Hall."

Su Wen took out the warrant and handed it over.

"You may enter."

"Let's go, Grandpa."

Old Jerry wasn't young anymore, and Su Wen wasn't careless either. Following Su Yuntao's advice, they slowly searched around the outskirts of the Soul Hunting Forest.

"Hmm? Grandpa, you might be getting a hundred-year Spirit Ring." Su Wen whispered, observing the distant yellow figure.

It was a yellow-skinned rat.
