That previous one messes up the word count, so it's really annoying>
------------------------------------
"An Illusionary Three Tailed Scorpion, huh? That is a pretty good choice for Xiao Li." Bibi Dong hummed, looking at her youngest disciple who was fighting the giant insect with an excited expression. Using both the brute force of his Majestic Tyrant Axe and Ultimate Fire of his Majestic Heart!
"But what will the soul skill be? Illusionary Three Tailed Scorpion is known for its top notch poison." Qian Renxue hummed in curiosity and her mother explained calmly :"That's true. Its poison is what has made it a top grade soul beast.
But his poison probably won't be inherited by Xiao Li's soul skill at all. This is a limitation and weakness of body martial souls. Just like food and auxiliary martial souls, the soul skill will always correspond with the body martial soul.
It's because of the lack of variety in body martial souls. For example, what can an arm body martial soul do except attack and defend? Or what could Xiao Li's Majestic Heart martial soul do except support others as an auxiliary martial soul if not for his Ultimate Fire?
That's why, the chances of Xiao Li getting the poison are extremely low. After all, what do poison and the brain have in common? How could a poison soul skill work with a brain martial soul?
Just like what Xiao Li said, even though his Majestic Incubus changed his body a little, it's almost completely focused on his brain. So he will either get the illusion or charm ability, or there is a tiny chance that he'll get the poison which could be used by his claws or wings.
But I'd rather he got either the illusion or charm. Sure, poison would be nice as a control branch soul master. Especially one of the strongest poisons in the soul beast world. But the ability to control the entire field with illusions would be a lot more useful.
Poison can be cured, even if it's a group type attack. But to get rid of an illusion or charm, you'd need a spiritual type soul master or a certain soul skill. Which is a lot harder to solve than poison."
"Ooh, I get it!" Hu Liena slapped her palm with the underside of her fist :"Master, you want Xiao Li to go down the exact same path as me! When somebody falls for my Charm abilities, unless they have certain soul skills or have a significantly higher rank, they're done for in my charm! You want Xiao Li to take the same path, right?"
"Mhm, that's correct." Bibi Dong nodded with a small smile :"And because of Xiao Li's martial soul being his brain, which is the center of the spiritual/mental strength, he will actually have stronger Charm abilities than you in the future."
"... Hmph, you don't have to rub it in..." Her older disciple snorted with a pout, causing her to chuckle and pat her head :"Don't be like that, Nana. You should be glad that Xiao Li is so strong.
After all, he's part of our little family now, and family members protect each other. Each of us getting as strong as possible just means the safety of our family is more and more guaranteed. That's what a great person once told me."
"Sigh, I'm not mad about it." The busty, younger blond sighed :"I guess you could say I'm a little... jealous of him... Hmph, whatever! So what if he's more talented?! I'll just work harder to improve faster!"
Seeing the determined fire in her disciple's eyes, Bibi Dong chuckled in amusement :"Good, good. That's what I like to hear. A healthy rivalry between you three is a good thing to drive you all to train and improve faster. Also, you should really train for your own safety... Otherwise, I feel like he'll definitely tease and bully you when he's stronger than you..."
"Hmph, bully me? As if!" The short haired girl snorted with folded arms, whipping her head to look away as her master sighed helplessly :"You think THAT won't try to tease you when he's stronger. Just look at him..."
Turning to look at the fight, they saw the young boy put his hand, clad in Ultimate Fire, right on the Illusionary Three Tailed Scorpion's eyes with a sadistic smile, causing it to shriek in pain :"SHAAA!!!!"
And try to hit Ah Li with his pincers. But he just jumped into the air and spun horizontally before bringing the Majestic Tyrant Axe right at the insect's face! Successfully hitting it, and creating a not-so-shallow wound!
"... Okay, I see your point..." Hu Liena curled her lips, promising herself to start training when they go back. As Ah Li deflected another strike of the scorpion, the fight continued.
But the Illusionary Three Tailed Scorpion, being a spiritual type soul beast, was obviously a lot smarter than the average soul beast. While fighting, Ah Li wasn't the only one who had learned about his opponent's moves!
Just when the red eyed boy landed on the ground, the red scorpion used the perfect chance to strike with one of its tails just at the right moment! Actually managing hit the boy's side and leave a rather huge wound just before he completely dodged!
"Shit!" Qian Renxue cursed, immediately rushing towards him in fear of the poison harming him. But just when she took the first step, Bibi Dong grabbed her arm and stopped her :"Hold on."
"Hold on?! Xiao Li has been poisoned! He'll die if we don't help out!" She shouted, trying to get out of her mother's iron grip. But Bibi Dong just looked at her seriously :"You think I'd just stand aside and watch if he was in danger? Look."
"Damn it..." Ah Li hissed in pain, holding his side while glaring at the smug scorpion. The Illusionary Three Tailed Scorpion made clicking noises, seeming to be laughing at the soon-to-be-dead kid.
"What the..." Said kid suddenly grew confused, confusing the insect as well. When the bug looked at the wound which was covered with Ah Li's hand, it saw him drawing his hand up and down, seemingly trying to feel the wound when he didn't feel any blood.
But when he took his hand off, the eyes of everyone except Bibi Dong, and including the Illusionary Three Tailed Scorpion, went wide in shock. There was no wound! Not even a scar or a scratch! There were only a few drops of blood!
"What in the...?" Face filled with pure confusion, the red eyed boy looked down at the place where had to not just have a big wound, but also a weird color because of the poison. But there was absolutely nothing!
Even the damn scorpion was confused as hell! But as Ah Li gently touched his side and the place of the wound that he was 100% sure he had gotten, he finally understood what had happened!
"I remember now!" He called out with a smile, letting go of his axe and punching his palm with the underside of his fist :"I have my Ultimate Regeneration!"
\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\
01-50) Ultimate Regeneration: with every new soul ring, Ah Li grows a new heart, increasing his regeneration powers. He also won't die no matter what as long as at least one of his hearts exists. At this stage, the user's regeneration would be so advanced that they would not only remain at an optimal condition and peak health forever, being immune to anything from dementia to mutations, but would also essentially attain a form of Immortality that makes them unkillable and eternally youthful. They would also be able to survive without any form of sustenance and be completely immune to any form of harmful foreign substance, detrimental conditions, hereditary illnesses, unformed limbs, birth defects etc. Even telepathic attacks would be rendered useless as the user can simply restore their mind to its unaltered state. This type of regeneration is also adaptive and intelligent, preventing it from accidentally multiplying tumors but instead restoring it back to its original forms. If something is jammed into the body, the healing factor would shift and remove the object to recover.

"Hahahaha! You're screwed now, bitch!" He laughed menacingly and smugly at the scorpion before snorting :"Enough playing around. How about we take it up a notch?" Two of his purple soul rings came out, smaller in size, one swirling around his chest, and the other spiraling around his axe!
"Majestic Heart's Blessing." <Soul Curse...? Incantation? Whatever that is, it must be said> With a sadistic smile, the small purple soul ring around his chest shone a bright color, and some parts of his body lit up in fire as his aura skyrocketed compared to his previous aura!
\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\
Majestic Heart's Blessing: AOE type soul skill where he can multiply all physical attributes of himself and all allies, no matter the level and rank, in a 5 meter radius by 5 times for 5 minutes. The number of people in the field or their levels and ranks won't increase or decrease the soul power consumption of this soul skill. The distance and duration will increase by 1 meter and 1 minute for every 100 years.

//////////////////////////////////
"SHAAA!!" With an angry shout, the Illusionary Three Tailed Scorpion got ready to attack with its tails again. However, a golden ball of light appeared in Ah Li's hand before he threw it at the soul beast's face.
"Boom." And the moment it was at the perfect distance, the black haired boy smirked as the ball exploded, creating a blinding light right in front of the giant scorpion's eyes!
"SHAAA???!!?" It screeched in pain at the stinging feeling of its already messed up eyes, shaking its head all over and attacking everywhere. Just as one of the tails was about to hit him, Ah Li disappeared from his place and appeared again in front of the soul beast.
As he gripped his axe with all the strength he could muster, he raised it in the sky just as the 1st soul ring of his Majestic Tyrant Axe shone! Along with the soul skill of his axe, he also activated its Innate Ability, Controllable Weight to its full force as well before bringing down the axe :"Majestic Tyrant Slash!!"
\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\
Majestic Tyrant Slash: a slash with 200% more than its normal strength. For every 10 levels, an extra 200% attack will be added.
------------------------------------
Controllable Weight: Ah Li can control the weight of the Majestic Axe to make it lighter or heavier, with the heaviest state being according to the soul ring' age. Normally, it's completely weightless.

//////////////////////////////////
"AHHHH!!!" As he stomped his foot on the ground, a huge crater formed on the ground as his axe came down with a terrifying force! The force of the incoming was horrifying to the point that even the temporarily blind scorpion felt it.
But before it could run or try to defend itself, the blade of the axe finally hit it! Immediately chopping it in two like a hot knife on butter and creating a giant crater on the ground when the axe hit the ground!
'... Holy mother of…' The young boy stared wide eyed at the corpse, his axe, and the giant crater he was standing in :'Da fuck...? Isn't this too overpowered???'
With a gulp, he returned the weight of his axe back to zero as he stood straight and deactivated his soul skills. When he heard rapid footsteps, he curled his lips as his senior sisters looked at him with confusion :"... The heck...?"
"Uhh..." He started, lips curled before he smiled awkwardly and shrugged with axe in hand :"I won... I guess...?"
