"Thirty levels!"
Tang Ya exclaimed, her mouth forming an "O" shape as she looked at Su Yu with a cute expression.
"Brother Su Yu, you just turned twelve, right?"
"Just a month ago, I turned twelve."
Twelve years old!
Thirty levels!
Even in Shrek Academy, he would be considered a genius.
"Wow, Brother Su Yu, after you obtain your soul ring, will you be joining Shrek Academy? Bei Bei and I are both students there!"
Su Yu shook his head.
"Shrek Academy isn't suitable for me."
What Qian Tong said made sense, especially since Su Yu was more eager to learn about soul guides than to attend Shrek Academy.
In fact, the records of martial soul cultivation from the Sun Moon Empire would be more systematic and more aligned with Su Yu's way of thinking.
To put it more directly, they leaned more towards a data-driven approach.
"How could it not be suitable for you? Shrek Academy is the top academy on the continent!"
Su Yu shook his head again, smiling without replying.
Bei Bei interrupted Tang Ya, preventing her from continuing.
"By the way, little brother Su, what is your martial soul? It just so happens that Tang Ya is also looking for her third soul ring; we can search for soul beasts together later."
"My requirements for the third soul ring might be a bit high."
"High requirements are fine; we Bei Bei are Soul Respect!"
Tang Ya patted Bei Bei on the shoulder, signaling to Su Yu that he didn't need to worry at all.
"For my third soul ring, I'm looking for one around five thousand years old, preferably six thousand years old."
"Cough, cough, cough, cough!"
Suddenly, Bei Bei started to cough violently, struggling to regain his composure for a long while.
"Little brother Su, the third soul ring is usually absorbed from soul beasts that are below one thousand seven hundred years old. What you're asking for—five thousand or even six thousand years—is very challenging for a Soul Master to absorb," Bei Bei noted, not mentioning whether he could hunt such high-level soul beasts.
"My second soul ring is already a thousand years old, and I know my physical capabilities."
"Besides, the soul beast I want to hunt won't have very high combat power."
After further inquiring about Su Yu's requirements for the soul beast, Bei Bei and Tang Ya fell silent, still reeling from the shock of Su Yu's second ring being a thousand years old.
Ahead,
Huo Yuhao was unaware that the three were following him.
At this moment, he found himself in a crisis.
A ten-year-old wind baboon!
After a thrilling battle, Huo Yuhao had successfully turned the tables on the wind baboon using his White Tiger Dagger.
Just as Huo Yuhao was contemplating whether to absorb this non-mental attribute soul ring, a voice filled with uncontainable excitement broke through.
"I finally encountered a human with a mental attribute! What a pity that I can't shed tears; otherwise, I would be in tears right now!"
Under Huo Yuhao's shocked gaze, cracks appeared in the ground ahead, revealing faint golden-white light shimmering from within the fissures.
A chill emanated from the cracks, and the surrounding temperature began to drop noticeably.
A large, plump-looking worm slowly crawled out, its round head giving it a chubby appearance.
This was a silkworm, but it was unlike any ordinary silkworm.
It was entirely white and translucent, with a halo of light swirling beneath its skin. It had a pair of small, glittering golden eyes on its head. Remarkably, starting half a meter from its head, there were ten golden patterns spiraling along its body, spaced evenly apart.
Huo Yuhao was engulfed in despair.
With such a large body and this icy aura, could it possibly be a hundred-year-old soul beast?
"It's over, it's over."
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid; I won't harm you."
Huo Yuhao was taken aback. "Are you talking to me?"
"Of course, it's me! Are you captivated by my beautiful figure?"
Huo Yuhao didn't sense any malice in the words of the Dream Ice Silkworm, so he gradually relaxed.
"What do you want?"
The Dream Ice Silkworm replied, "Let me introduce myself first. I am the embodiment of heroism and chivalry, the soul beast king with both wisdom and beauty, an unparalleled powerhouse, the creator of records on the Douluo Continent, and I possess a million years of cultivation—the Dream Ice Silkworm. You can call me Brother Dream!"
Before he could explain further, the Dream Ice Silkworm glanced warily into the depths of the Star Dou Forest and said gravely, "I'll explain more later; I need to begin now. Don't worry, I'll be gentle and won't hurt you too much."
After saying this, he began to actively merge with Huo Yuhao, his ten golden rings seemingly coming to life, pulsating up and down.
Su Yu felt the world suddenly grow dark, as if the entire space were shattering.
A tremendous, suffocating pressure descended upon them.
Within the aged voice was an indescribable authority.
"Hand in hand with the sun and moon, I pluck the stars from the sky; there is no one like me in this world! I never expected that I would still have a remnant of my soul remaining in this realm."
Before Su Yu fell unconscious, he clearly heard this voice.
"This little fellow is also an outsider, huh?" A gray mist entered Su Yu's mind, and the ancient voice muttered to itself.
"Hmph! What power is this? Is it trying to interfere with me?"
As if sensing something, the ancient voice expressed its dissatisfaction. A force split off from the gray mist, enveloping Su Yu, which then transformed into a gray orb the size of a soybean, hovering in Su Yu's spiritual sea, becoming silent.
*In the Divine Realm.*
A towering figure stood, with long water-blue hair and a luxurious blue robe that seemed to ripple like water. The glimmer in his eyes was as deep as the ocean.
The man frowned and sighed.
Behind him, a woman in a pink dress, with long braids resembling scorpion tails, stepped forward, gently wrapping her arm around the man's. She rested her head on his shoulder.
"Brother, has something happened on the Douluo Continent?"
"Alas, it seems the fate of the chosen one has been stirred, but from here in the Divine Realm, along with a power blocking my view, I cannot see clearly."
Su Yu slowly woke up, rubbing his throbbing head, and suddenly noticed something different.
He closed his eyes, feeling the presence of a world.
It was his spiritual sea!
As he focused his thoughts on the spiritual sea, he saw the gray orb floating above it.
"This is Electrolux!"
Although Su Yu didn't know why Illex had chosen him, he couldn't hide his excitement.
In his previous life, he had felt regret over the character of Illex, even reading another novel just to see his part, enduring for half a month until he finally reached the appearance of that character.
"Old Illex, since you chose me, I promise that I will ensure no unforeseen events occur as in the original work.
Moreover, I will do my best to help you complete your fragmented consciousness."
Su Yu silently vowed.
Illex's choice gave him immense confidence.
The gaze of the God King?
He wasn't afraid!
No matter what stance that God King held, Su Yu was no longer worried; at least, with Illex—who almost possessed true divine power—by his side, many of his hopes seemed much more attainable.
Su Yu attempted to call out to Illex but received no response and had no choice but to exit the spiritual sea.
He got up and woke Bei Bei and Tang Ya, who were beside him.
"Huh? What just happened? Why are we all unconscious?"
"It seems a powerful soul beast passed by, causing us to faint from its mental shock."
"Ah? What about Yuhao?"
Tang Ya anxiously pulled at Bei Bei and Su Yu, urging them forward.
