This is a translation. "A descendant of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) practitioners, Gu Yi, finds himself transported into the world of Douluo Continent, where he awakens to the martial spirit most familiar to him from his past life. Will he be able to leverage his own advantages and dominate the continent? Which is stronger, martial arts or spirit skills? Will he assist characters such as the arrogant Phoenix Ma Hongjun, the carefree White Tiger Dai Mubai, the Asura God Tang San, the threatening Ning Rongrong, and the willful Xiao Wu in becoming exemplary figures of the new era? It remains to be seen."

Chapter 124: Qian Renxue Comes

Since that incident, everyone realized one thing: not all those who study martial spirits are useless. At least, Gu Yi wasn't.

The news of Yu Yuanzhen's death quickly spread across all factions. There was no way to hide it. His death would undoubtedly cause various problems. The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan relied on their powerful martial spirit and Yu Yuanzhen, a Titled Douluo, to maintain their status. With his death, the clan's position was at risk.

This turbulence, however, had nothing to do with Gu Yi, who was busy sorting through his spoils of war. He obtained three spirit bones from Yu Yuanzhen's body: a 50,000-year-old Thunder Dragon's left arm bone and a 30,000-year-old Swift Wing Dragon's right arm bone. Despite their high quality, Gu Yi wasn't interested in absorbing them, as they didn't suit him. He believed he could acquire even higher-grade spirit bones in the future. 

Moreover, the next seventh spirit ring is the most important level among spirit masters. No matter what kind of spirit beast it absorbs, it will only result in one spirit skill. The true form of the Martial Spirit.

He has already thought about the spirit beast for the seventh soul ring, and naturally, he has chosen the spirit beast with the longest age in the entire Douluo Continent. Moreover, if he is lucky, he may be able to obtain a second martial spirit.

He then checked Yu Yuanzhen's spirit tool, discovering immense wealth, including over a million gold coins and various herbs and materials. This haul was far more lucrative than his previous exploits against nobles. The world's wealth was indeed concentrated in the hands of the rich.

Contrary to Gu Yi's expectations, no one from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan came seeking revenge, leaving him to continue his studies and teaching undisturbed. Teaching students was costly, requiring constant supplies of herbs and food.

...

Meanwhile, in the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan:

"Yu Luomian, what do you mean by stopping us from avenging the clan leader?" An elder angrily asked. Others echoed his sentiments. Allowing the clan leader's death to go unavenged would tarnish their reputation.

Yu Luomian, now the clan leader, responded sternly, "Do you think I don't want revenge? He was my brother. But with our current power, how can we defeat Gu Yi? Even my brother, with all his strength, couldn't beat him."

The reality was harsh; without their top combatant, the clan's strength had diminished. "We must first secure our position among the top three sects and build our strength for future revenge," he concluded, silencing the room.

...

Back at Tianwen Academy, after testing Ning Rongrong's resolve, Gu Yi taught her more advanced techniques, which, though serene, could lead to emotional detachment if not managed properly. If Ning Rongrong's character is not up to standard, it is very likely that under the guidance of the exercises, she will become a person who is indifferent to emotions and ignores the facts. The unity of spirit and body is the key to spiritual practice.

Gu Yi also began teaching other advanced martial arts and documenting techniques to enrich the academy's library. This process also helped him refine his own understanding and develop potent elixirs for Dugu Bo, his alchemy speeding up significantly.

One night, a messenger from the crown prince arrived at Tianwen Academy. Gu Yi came to the Prince's Mansion, and as soon as he entered, he saw Xue Qinghe sitting in the first place.

"What business does the crown prince have with me?" Gu Yi inquired upon entering.

To be honest, Qian Renxue is really suitable to be an undercover agent. She is a gentle and easy-going successor to the empire who serves the country and the people. As expected of a person was trained by someone with bottomless intelligence and scheming talent like Ning Fengzhi. It's just that Gu Yi really doesn't understand how she could become such a love brain. When she meets someone who makes her heart beat, she forgets everything she has learned in the past ten years.

"How strong are you now?" Xue Qinghe looked seriously at this man who despite being several years younger than already had the power to kill a Titled Douluo.

Gu Yi honestly replied, "I don't know." After all, Yu Yuanzhen hadn't forced him to fully unleash his power, nor had he used his Heaven Swallowing Technique.

Qian Renxue then shifted topics, "With Yu Yuanzhen's death, sect conflicts will soon erupt. The spirit master world will no longer be peaceful."

Gu Yi understood her point. "Isn't that beneficial for you? The more chaotic the world is, the happier the Spirit Hall will be."

Qian Renxue, reverting to her true appearance, admitted this was true but had another concern. She wanted to understand why Gu Yi, unlike other human martial spirit possessors, was uniquely powerful.
