Douluo Dalu: This Soul Master is to Weird

The next day, in the afternoon.

In a dark and damp forest within the Sunset Forest, Mu Yang sat cross-legged on the ground, refining his soul ring.

Not far away lay the corpse of a soul beast over five meters long, covered in brown wrinkled skin. It was a thousand-year-old Earth Dragon soul beast.

After a long time, Mu Yang finally finished refining the Earth Dragon soul ring. When he opened his eyes, his soul power level had officially advanced to that of a two-ring Grandmaster.

It was a slight pity that although the second soul ring exceeded the optimal limit, its age wasn't particularly high. Coupled with the additional soul power requirements of cultivating the Extreme Flame Meditation Technique, Mu Yang's soul power only reached mid-level 21 instead of advancing directly to level 22.

Nevertheless, to achieve the rank of a 21st-level Soul Grandmaster shortly after turning eight years old was an extraordinary feat in the history of soul masters.

In this era, apart from potential "cheaters" who fused soul bones in advance, perhaps only Qian Renxue, with her innate rank 20 soul power, could surpass him in cultivation level at the same age.

Glancing at his ginseng martial soul, Mu Yang noticed that after attaching the second soul ring, its plump, earthy yellow root now bore faint brown lines. The previously numerous fine roots had reduced in number but had grown slightly thicker.

A soul master's martial soul evolves over time with increased cultivation and additional soul rings.

However, since Mu Yang's soul power level was still relatively low and the ages of his two attached soul rings weren't particularly high, his ginseng martial soul hadn't undergone any dramatic transformations compared to when it first awakened.

"Essence of the Eight Desolations and Heavens, Blood Supplement!"

Chanting the incantation, Mu Yang activated his thousand-year second soul ring, causing a surge of soul power. A red glow emanated from his hand, condensing into a blood-red ginseng three inches long. It looked identical to the Recovery Ginseng from his first soul skill, except for its color.

His second soul skill, Blood Supplement Ginseng, could rapidly heal injuries and restore physical stamina.

At first glance, Mu Yang's Recovery Ginseng and Blood Supplement Ginseng seemed inferior to Oscar's Recovery Sausage in the original story. After all, Oscar's Recovery Sausage combined the effects of restoring soul power, physical stamina, and healing injuries—all in one.

However, the effectiveness of soul power food wasn't solely determined by its range of effects.

Generally, the broader the range of effects, the weaker each individual effect would be, assuming similar martial souls and soul ring ages.

Specialization often surpassed generalization.

Without hesitation, Mu Yang popped the Blood Supplement Ginseng into his mouth.

Earlier, during the process of attaching the soul ring, he had missed lunch. The ginseng served as a handy snack to stave off hunger.

Although his soul power ginseng only restored soul power, mental energy, stamina, and injuries, it could also function as a substitute for regular food.

Hunger stems from the body's need for energy. Since soul power food contains energy, it can replace meals and do so more effectively. However, most soul power foods were primarily designed for combat support rather than satisfying hunger.

"A thousand-year second soul ring, excellent!"

Watching the purple glow of Mu Yang's second soul ring, Huo Lie nodded in satisfaction.

At this moment, Huo Lie felt even more confident that Mu Yang could eventually master his twin martial souls.

After all, twin martial soul masters risked death due to their bodies being unable to bear the load of double soul rings. This was similar to how ordinary soul masters would explode if they attached soul rings that exceeded their limits.

Since Mu Yang could use whale glue to withstand over-the-limit soul rings, it proved that the unverified theory about twin martial souls was correct.

As long as the body was strong enough and sufficient hundred-thousand-year soul beasts were available, a twin martial soul master could theoretically attach nine hundred-thousand-year soul rings to their second martial soul after reaching the nine-ring Titled Douluo rank, becoming an unrivaled powerhouse.

As for bottlenecks?

Ridiculous!

The immense energy contained in hundred-thousand-year soul rings would be more than enough to push a level-98 peak Titled Douluo through the barrier to level 99.

For twin martial soul masters, attaching a soul ring after each bottleneck made the path to level 99 nearly guaranteed.

With a full set of hundred-thousand-year soul bones, a configuration of nine red soul rings, and the soul power of a level-99 Peerless Douluo, even the legendary "Sky Invincible" and "Land Invincible" would no longer truly deserve their titles.

Unless gods descended to intervene, such a soul master would be utterly unbeatable.

Once the soul hunt was over, Huo Lie led Mu Yang and Huo Yun out of the Sunset Forest.

That evening, after returning to the academy, Huo Lie immediately convened the academy's senior staff for a meeting.

When everyone had arrived, Huo Lie got straight to the point.

"Gentlemen, we must advance our plans."

"Brother Lie, has something unexpected happened?" Yan Ruhuo asked, frowning.

"Yes. Today, while hunting in the Sunset Forest, I encountered the Poison Douluo, Dugu Bo, who was hunting soul beasts with his granddaughter. He discovered that the soul ring exceeded its optimal limit.

"Left with no choice, I explained the effects of whale glue to him. However, it wasn't a total loss, as Dugu Bo now owes us a favor.

"Still, while he promised to keep this a secret, it won't stay hidden for long. Once his granddaughter, Dugu Yan, attaches an over-the-limit soul ring, the truth about whale glue will inevitably spread. Therefore, the academy must quickly implement our original plan."

Huo Lie's tone was serious.

If it were just a personal matter, he might have "nobly" announced the effects of whale glue to the world.

But as the principal of Blazing Academy, he had to prioritize the academy's interests.

There was a proper way to disclose the information, who to tell, and how to tell it. If handled correctly, Blazing Academy could reap enormous benefits.

For some factions, Blazing Academy could openly sell the information as a commodity.

For others, it might be better to give it away for free.

Of course, what's free often comes at a higher cost.

By sharing such vital information, the recipients would be obliged to reciprocate. After all, failing to show proper appreciation wouldn't align with their stature.
