Seven days later!
Starry Sky Forest!
"Grandpa, what is the maximum number of years it will take for me to absorb my first spirit ring?"
After following Yu Yuanzhen into the Star Dou Great Forest, Yu Tianming asked.
"Theoretically, the limit for the first spirit ring is 450 years. Of course, this only applies to ordinary geniuses. Our Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Martial Soul is naturally strong in body. If it absorbs spirit rings from other spirit beasts, it should be able to reach 600 years. However, due to the uniqueness of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus, the spirit ring must be based on the dragon species, so the lifespan is about 500 years. Everyone's aptitude is different, and so is their limit."
Yu Yuanzhen paused for a moment and continued, "Those with innate soul power of 10 can absorb any soul beast under 500 years old. The first soul ring I absorbed was 478 years old. If it were an ordinary soul beast, I could absorb 500-600 years old."
"Tianming, you not only have twin martial souls, but your innate soul power has also reached level 20. Your physical endurance far exceeds that of ordinary people. In addition, I hope that my first soul ring will be over 700 years old, given my super strong physique as a Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex."
Yu Tianming was shocked when he heard this. A first spirit ring over 700 years old?
And it must be a dragon-type soul beast?
"But...Grandpa, doesn't Uncle Xiaogang's theory say that the first spirit ring cannot be older than 423 years?"
Over the course of six years, Yu Tianming read the "Ten Core Theories of Martial Soul." To be honest, he admired his uncle Yu Xiaogang, admiring his boldness.
The so-called Ten Core Theories of Martial Souls are actually a fusion of the knowledge of the Spirit Hall and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. You should know that those are treasures passed down by our ancestors over thousands of years, and they are the foundation of our sects and families.
It's truly a stroke of bad luck that someone like Yu Xiaogang came along. He took the knowledge of his predecessors, modified it, and created the "Ten Core Theories of Martial Souls." He even shamelessly proclaimed, "There are only useless Soul Masters, not useless Martial Souls." But is that really the case?
Yu Xiaogang is nearly 30 years old and has only just broken through to level 20 Great Soul Master. What else could such a person be but a waste?
That Luo Sanpao is a disgrace to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.
Now Yu Xiaogang has gone outside and is known as a master who is "invincible in theory," a master who only accepts geniuses and not useless people!
A good-for-nothing like me doesn't deserve to be taught by a master!
Yu Yuanzhen's face changed from a smile to a change in expression. He was annoyed at the mention of Yu Xiaogang. No matter what, he was still his son. He didn't care whether his martial soul was useless or not, but Yu Xiaogang was a troublemaker. He went to the Spirit Hall and seduced their holy maiden. After being kicked out, he released his family's inherited knowledge for free. The most unlucky one was the Spirit Hall. He almost went to war with the Spirit Hall because of this.
If it weren't for Yu Luomian's intervention some time ago, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan would have become the talk of the town in Douluo Continent.
Liu Erlong is Yu Yuanzhen's niece. She and Yu Xiaogang are siblings, direct blood relatives within three generations.
Upon learning the truth, Yu Yuanzhen was so angry that he vomited blood.
"Hmph, don't believe that theory. Your uncle is almost 30 years old and at the same level as you. By the time you absorb your spirit ring, he won't be as strong as you."
A six-year-old Soul Master and a nearly thirty-year-old Soul Master—Yu Yuanzhen felt increasingly ashamed. Yu Xiaogang was his own son.
...
The Heavenly Capital, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School!
"Uncle Jian, is this true?"
Ning Fengzhi, the sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, looked at the envelope in his hand in shock.
Twin martial souls, innate soul power level 20, no, to be precise, twin mutated martial souls, benign mutation.
Ning Fengzhi's hands trembled, and he couldn't calm down for a long time. This was too outrageous.
"It's true. Yan'er said that Tianming has already gone to the Star Dou Great Forest to find a suitable soul ring. The old dragon personally led Tianming there."
A middle-aged man with white hair spoke with jealousy in his voice. Yu Tianming was his grandson, and he longed to take him away and teach him himself.
"Alas, Heaven does not bless my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School."
Ning Fengzhi sat on the sofa and sighed.
Sword Douluo, who was standing to the side, twitched his lips. He didn't know how to comfort Ning Fengzhi. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's position in the Douluo Continent was quite awkward.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda is hailed as the number one support-type weapon spirit on the continent. Its amplification is indeed extremely powerful, but it also has a fatal flaw: it cannot break through level 79 in its lifetime.
Forget about being a Title Douluo, even becoming a Soul Douluo is a pipe dream.
Even arranged marriages are rarely accepted, since in the Douluo Continent, a world that values bloodline inheritance, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's weaknesses are considered poison.
A top-tier martial soul that was originally perfect is replaced by a son with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, who can never break through level 79 in his entire life. No one can accept that.
Ning Fengzhi had many children, but unfortunately none of them had an innate soul power exceeding level 8. The highest level was only level 7, which was too weak for the three upper sects.
"I hope Rongrong will live up to expectations, sigh."
Ning Fengzhi pinned his hopes on his unborn daughter.
"Uncle Jian, do you think there's any possibility of winning him over?"
Ning Fengzhi looked at Chen Xin and asked, "Yu Tianming is his grandson. On the surface, they are close, but in reality, Chen Yan has been married into the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan for decades and the father and daughter have only met a few times."
"If Rongrong has innate soul power level 10, then maybe it's possible."
After thinking for a moment, Chen Xin spoke up. He didn't rule out the possibility of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda having innate soul power level 10. Even if Yu Yuanzhen agreed, he wouldn't agree if there was no innate soul power level 10.
Chen Xin was well aware of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda's shortcomings. Given his grandson's talent, his future wife had to have an innate soul power of level 10 or higher, and her martial soul had to be of top quality.
Only a high-quality mother is qualified to conceive a great-grandchild.
"Innate Soul Power Level 10..."
Upon hearing this, Ning Fengzhi's face showed bitterness. Well, there was no chance.
