Twenty days is enough time for a lot to happen.
For example, Qian Yuelong, upon emerging from seclusion, discovered that her eighth growth quest had reached zero progress.
This task requires 15 consecutive days without interruption.
If it disconnects, everything is reset to zero.
For example, on the sixth day of Qian Yuelong's seclusion, Xie Yue cultivated day and night and broke through to level 28.
Yan is still hovering around level 28, but with his talent, it's only a matter of time before he breaks through to level 29.
Hu Liena broke through to level 27. In her spare time, she also met Bibi Dong several times, who had come specifically for her.
Bibi Dong found a suitable method for Hu Liena to control her martial soul ability. It was the cultivation notes of the previous person who possessed a psychedelic martial soul. For Hu Liena, who was not yet able to control the passive effects of her martial soul, it was like an oasis of life for a desert traveler.
She studied the cultivation tips her teacher had found for her with great interest, practicing while exploring how to control her martial soul's passive illusion-like abilities.
Spurred on by Xie Yue's breakthrough, Xu Yu, Zhang Ping, and Sun Chuantao spent all their time, except for necessary eating, drinking, and resting, frantically cultivating in the advanced simulated environment training room. The day before Qian Yuelong emerged from seclusion, Zhang Ping, who had not yet broken through, finally reached level 28.
However, there are still about ten days until the bi-monthly Elite Class Quota Challenge and the Team Soul Battle between Elite Classes. If Qian Yuelong were to hunt for her fourth Soul Ring on her own, it would take at least half a month to go back and forth, which would inevitably cause her to miss the challenge at the end of the month.
Unaware that Qian Yuelong had spent eight days doing other things during those twenty days, Wei Ming was still shocked by the speed of Qian Yuelong's cultivation.
He had never seen a Soul Master who had just broken through to level 39 advance another level in less than a month.
Comparing the information about Qian Yuelong's previous cultivation that was handed to him, Wei Ming sighed as he began to write a letter to Yue Guan.
Upon learning that his disciple had broken through to the Moon Barrier Level 1 again within a month, he clutched the still-warm letter, his expression subtle. He teased his partner, Ghostly, "This girl's cultivation speed was just average before. But after entering the academy, having someone watching over her makes a difference. It feels like her cultivation speed after entering the academy is her normal cultivation speed. Old Ghost, do you think I have any hope of seeing a genius Soul King emerge this year?"
Ghostly: "."
It's already late autumn, and you're still saying "this year"?
"You're jumping ten levels in half a year? You might as well dream about achieving that ridiculous dream the fastest."
He rolled his eyes, leaving Yue Guan, who was standing in Versailles, with a cold back view.
With a slight smile, Yue Guan wrote a reply to Wei Ming.
Not long after receiving Yue Guan's reply that same day, Wei Ming thought for a moment and submitted a special application to the dean.
The dean approved the application very quickly, granting it immediately after reading the report. He approved the seven members of Qian Yuelong's team not to participate in the quota challenge and to postpone the Elite Class Team Soul Battle.
When the team leaders of the other three elite classes saw the notice, they felt as sour as if they had eaten lemons.
They also have promising talents, but the joy of continuous breakthroughs and having a newly promoted genius Soul Master belongs to others.
On the other side, the seven people who had heard Wei Ming's announcement were speechless.
Some of them showed expressions of pain and pleasure, some looked regretful, seemingly disappointed that they couldn't compete with other strong opponents, and some remained calm and accepted it peacefully.
A smile flickered in Wei Ming's eyes as he said, "That's all I have to say. You can go back and prepare now. Tents and water bottles can be exchanged at the academy or purchased with Soul Coins. Get a good rest tonight and conserve your energy. Tomorrow morning, meet at the academy gate on time and we'll head to the large Soul Beast Forest!"
"yes!"
The seven people spoke in unison and each took their own actions.
By the time I got back to the dormitory, it was already completely dark.
After showering and changing into her nightgown, Hu Liena dried her hair with a towel while asking Qian Yuelong, who had just come out of the bathroom, "Yuelong, do you have a soul beast partner in mind for your fourth soul ring?"
A light-colored dry towel was placed over her damp silver hair, the slightly curled ends dripping with still-warm water droplets. Qian Yuelong made a "hmm" sound and said, "My first choice is definitely a plant-type soul beast. As for the second choice, I'll see what luck brings. Nobody knows what kind of soul beast we'll encounter. Anyway, I just hope that the soul skill for my fourth soul ring won't be a healing type."
If she gains another healing soul skill, she'll really have to change her soul master development path.
Hu Liena choked for a moment, then chuckled and said, "Doesn't your teacher have any thoughts on this either?"
The semi-free-range Qian Yuelong honestly shook her head: "I don't know." If she had any ideas, Teacher Wei would probably give her a hint on the way tomorrow.
Whether we'll meet again is another story.
The next day, when the seven people dressed in the Spirit Hall Academy's iconic light purple uniforms arrived at the academy gate, Wei Ming and two other academy teachers were already waiting there.
"Teacher Wei."
The seven greeted Wei Ming, one of the three who was familiar with them.
Wei Ming nodded and introduced the two academy teachers beside him: "They've arrived. The one on my left is Teacher Hao Xuan, a level 74 Assault-type Battle Soul Saint."
With slightly dark skin and a tall stature, Hao Xuan nodded to the crowd.
"The one on the right is Teacher Qu Yuanyi, a level 71 defensive-type Battle Soul Saint."
Qu Yuanyi, tall and with his hands behind his back, nodded to the crowd.
"Hello, both teachers."
The seven people called out respectfully.
Wei Ming began to explain their destination: "This time we are heading to the second largest soul beast forest on the Douluo Continent—Sunset Forest. Sunset Forest is located within the borders of the Heaven Dou Empire. Although it is not as large as the Star Dou Great Forest, another large soul beast forest on the continent, Sunset Forest is also rich in high-level soul beasts. Compared to the Star Dou Great Forest, it is less dangerous and is very suitable for you to train."
"You are responsible for organizing your own journey. You are also responsible for handling any dangers you encounter. The three of us will accompany you the whole way, but we will not intervene unless the dangers we encounter are beyond your capabilities."
"If you can't make up your mind, you can choose a captain."
Upon hearing this, Xie Yue and the others all looked at Qian Yuelong, who had the highest soul power among them.
Qian Yuelong: "."
She has endured so much at such a young age.
Qian Yuelong coughed lightly: "If you don't mind, I'll be the captain."
Yan, who always believed in the supremacy of the strong, had no objection: "Your soul power level is the highest, so of course you should do it."
The same applies to the other five.
Wei Ming made the final decision: "Alright, then it's Yue Long. You make the arrangements."
"I'll lead the way. Xu Yu is a support-type Soul Master, so he'll follow behind me. Nana, you're a control-type Soul Master, so your close-combat ability is still lacking. You'll also follow behind me. Zhang Ping, you're an agility-type Soul Master, so you'll stay with Xu Yu and be responsible for his safety."
"Sun Chuantao and Yan, you two are both offensive-type Soul Masters, so you'll be responsible for the left and right flanks, keeping watch on the surrounding area. Xie Yue, you have rich combat experience and quick reflexes, so I'll trouble you to bring up the rear. Is this arrangement acceptable?"
The six people shook their heads, offering no objection.
"Then, let's go!"
At Qian Yuelong's command, she was the first to charge out.
The other six followed Qian Yuelong's instructions.
