Shui Jing believed what Dugu Bo said.
Back then, Dugu Bo had practically forced him to accept this childhood betrothal. He had gone to great lengths back then, so naturally he wouldn't harm Shui Bing'er now.
But if that was the case, he couldn't understand why Dugu Bo had released that Ice Jade Falcon!
They had searched for over half a month in the Frozen Forest before finally finding this Ice Jade Falcon. A bird with the bloodline of an Ice Phoenix, and exactly seven hundred years old, was truly hard to find.
Could it be that Dugu Bo knew there was a 700-year-old pure-blooded Ice Phoenix soul beast there?
"Old man Shui, bring Xiao Bing'er with you. I'll help her choose a soul ring."
"This...."
Shui Jing hesitated for a mont before saying, "Dean, Shui Lin, the three students' soul rings have been obtained. You should take them back to Heaven Dou first. I'll go with this old monster!"
"Dad, be careful."
Shui Lin bowed slightly to Dugu Bo before leaving with Dean Tianshui and the students.
Watching the group leave, Dugu Bo nodded and said, "One is level 21, and the other two are level 41. They don't seem very old, do they? Those two are the seeded mbers of this year's Soul Master Competition, right?"
Shui Jing didn't hide anything and said directly, "The two older ones are mbers of this year's Soul Master Competition, and the younger one is called Xue Wu. She is ten years old this year and has a Martial Soul Fusion Skill with Bing'er! We plan to have her and Bing'er participate in the next Soul Master Competition together!"
"Soul Fusion Technique?"
Dugu Bo's face showed surprise, and he glanced at his grandson almost imperceptibly. How co his grandson hadn't ntioned such important information?
He ignored Dugu Bo's gaze and finally found an opportunity to rub Shui Bing'er's head when she wasn't paying attention.
What are you doing?
Shui Bing'er pouted and imdiately dodged away.
Dugu Lin laughed, "Hahaha~~ Shui Bing'er, would you like to hunt for a second soul ring with an age of over three thousand years? Your brother can help you!"
"A second soul ring over three thousand years old?"
Shui Bing'er looked puzzled, her expression full of doubt.
Even Shui Jing frowned and asked, "Old monster, what does your grandson an?"
Dugu Bo laughed and said, "It ans exactly what it says! I have a way to help Xiao Bing'er obtain a second soul ring that is over three thousand years old! If it weren't for the short ti, I could have helped Xiao Bing'er obtain a second soul ring that is six thousand years old!"
Because if Shui Bing'er took too much whale glue in a short period of ti, she might not be able to withstand the effects of the whale glue due to her young age, which could damage her body.
Therefore, in the short term, they could only temporarily increase the intensity of the limit by two to three thousand years.
"Six thousand years for the second ring? Are you kidding ? Six thousand years is sothing even the fourth ring can't imagine!"
Shui Jing, who had lived to a ripe old age, didn't believe it at all!
The optimal configuration of yellow and purple soul rings, as well as the limits that each soul ring can withstand, had been passed down for tens of thousands of years. This concept was especially deeply ingrained in the older generation!
Hehe~
Dugu Bo smiled smugly, gestured to Dugu Lin with his eyes, and said, "Old man Shui, when we arranged the betrothal, I said that my grandson is a dragon among n!"
Shui Jing frowned, his gaze sweeping back and forth between Dugu Bo and Dugu Lin.
Suddenly, Dugu Lin summoned his familiar Jade Phosphor Serpent, and then two purple soul rings and a level 28 soul power fluctuation appeared at his feet!
Over the past five years, Dugu Lin had demonstrated exceptional control over his soul rings and soul power. Despite possessing a level 40 soul power with three rings, he had only displayed the cultivation level of a level 28 soul power with two rings.
Imdiately, Shui Jing's eyes widened, and he stamred in surprise, "Purple... purple! The first ring in a thousand years! How is this possible?!"
"Gulp~"
At this mont, Shui Bing'er was also so shocked that she covered her mouth and secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva. Her small eyes were filled with shock and curiosity, and her impression of Dugu Lin changed instantly!
He used to be an annoying older brother, but now he's beco an amazing older brother!
Dugu Lin said with a smile, "Grandpa Shui, my grandpa didn't lie to you, did he?"
"Wait!"
Shui Jing exclaid in surprise and hurriedly asked, "Weren't you supposed to have half-level innate soul power? Now... how could your soul power fluctuations have already reached level twenty-eight?! This is impossible! You're only eleven years old, aren't you?"
"Nothing is impossible."
Dugu Lin put away his soul rings and said with a smile, "Grandpa Shui, take another look at my martial soul."
"Martial Soul?"
Shui Jing looked at the Jade Phosphor Serpent Little Lin, and it looked exactly like a Jade Phosphor Serpent soul beast, and it was the sa soul beast that had just disappeared!
"This is my separated martial soul. It has its own life and consciousness, almost the sa as an ordinary soul beast! By the way, it also has its own na, Little Lin."
"Little Lin?"
Shui Bing'er developed a great curiosity and interest in this Jade Phosphor Serpent.
"Hiss~"
Little Lin flicked its tongue and approached Shui Bing'er, affectionately rubbing against Shui Bing'er's outstretched hand.
Shui Bing'er exclaid in surprise, "Is this really a Martial Soul? It's actually just like a soul beast!"
Dugu Bo asked proudly, "Well? Old man Shui, isn't my grandson a dragon among n?"
Shui Jing frowned, remaining silent, thinking to himself: 'Eleven years old and already possessing level twenty-eight soul power! Moreover, he also has two purple soul rings and such a unique martial soul!'
Imdiately afterwards, Shui Jing thought of the information about Dugu Lin's innate half-level soul power and couldn't understand why he could break through to level 28 in just five years!
If soone has innate full soul power talent, Shui Jing could accept that they would break through to level 28 soul power at the age of eleven.
But from half a level of innate to twenty-eight... Shui Jing asked in bewildernt, "Old monster, you didn't let your grandson overdraw his potential, did you?"
"How could I possibly do such a thing?"
"Then...."
That was why Shui Jing couldn't understand it!
Dugu Bo laughed and said, "Alright, let's not talk about anything else for now. Old Man Shui, you stay and keep watch from a distance. You can't know the secret to increasing physical strength! If... you really want to know, that's fine, but you have to think about the price your Shui clan is willing to pay! After you've thought it through, co to within six months to discuss it!"
The Shui clan is not the sa as the Ye clan. The Ye clan only has a few mbers, while the Shui clan is a large clan with a large population! They even own half of the assets of the entire Tianshui Academy.
Facing the Ye clan, Ye Renxin's need for the secret of the first ring of a thousand years is of little significance, while Dugu Bo only needs to tie Ye Renxin and Ye Lingling to his own side.
Like the Dragon and Snake Clan, the Shui Clan has many voices within its ranks. Although Shui Jing is the clan leader, he cannot rule with absolute authority.
Therefore, Dugu Bo will leave enough ti for Shui Jing to go back and integrate the different voices within the clan.
