Chapter 119 Divinely Bestowed Soul Ring, Setting Sail
The invigilators' checks were simple but strict; only the examinees were allowed to enter the examination room, and no other items were permitted.
Yi Jia, Sang Zizhen.
The first students to undergo Chi Ping's kung fu experiment, and two of the students in Shrek who had the most contact with Chi Ping, lined up with their classmates at the door of classroom 107 to wait for inspection.
After the inspection, take your seats and wait.
The invigilator distributed the exam papers, pens, and drafts.
When the bell rang again, the rustling sound filled the ears, and the candidates began to concentrate on answering the questions.
The exam lasts seven days, with the first three days dedicated to academic subjects and the last four days to practical assessments.
The first subject, literature, tests reading, writing, and composition. A qualified person should be able to express their thoughts and ideas using language and to communicate effectively.
The second subject, computational arithmetic, tests computational geometry. The world is vast and complex, and we need tools to simplify it in order to better understand it.
The third discipline, Materialization, examines the laws of physics and the principles of things. It offers an alternative way of understanding the world, beyond martial spirits.
The fourth subject, herbal medicine, tests knowledge of herbal identification, medicinal properties and combinations, and emergency treatment. Learning medicine precedes learning martial arts; understanding the body is essential for better growth.
The fifth martial soul test involves examining the martial soul, its ring, and its beast.
The sixth course, Ideological and Political Education, tests moral character and understanding of values. There's a boundary between society and the world; crossing that boundary will lead to being attacked. This course discusses this boundary.
"How did the exam go?"
"It's alright."
"Tsk! I bombed the test. I got the fifth question wrong, and I think I wrote the 12th question in the wrong order."
—If you fail an exam, how can you find out which questions you got wrong?
Yi Jia and Sang Zizhen listened to the class's notorious academic slacker complaining, and mentally they were furious.
"Yi Jia, Zi Zhen, how did you do on your exams?"
"It's alright."
"I did my best."
The two said in unison.
"Oh my~ Stop being modest, you guys have really learned from the dean."
"The dean doesn't teach this..."
"Everyone knows the dean values these academic subjects! And you all study so hard in class, you must have put in a lot of effort."
"It depends on talent~ How's your preparation for tomorrow's physical test?"
"I'm not confident; the Six Forms are too difficult."
"It's really difficult..."
……
Medicine Mountain, inside the mushroom tree itself, a hidden room, the Martial Soul Laboratory.
The mushroom tree's canopy is nearly 100 meters high and over 200 meters in diameter, with a handle diameter of nearly 40 meters—more than enough to hide several secret laboratories.
After all, how many guys would refuse a hidden base?
Moreover, the mushroom tree is extremely strong, so there is absolutely no need to worry about security or safety issues when setting up a laboratory here.
Therefore, important laboratories such as the Advanced Soul Guidance Laboratory, the Advanced Martial Soul Laboratory, the Computer Laboratory, and the Continental Central Computer Room are all located inside the Mushroom Tree.
"The divine position connection is complete; the power of faith is now being established."
Chi Shu's voice echoed in the closed, empty laboratory.
Chi Ping severed his focus on the academy, took a deep breath, and his qi and blood flames surged, with a blue light dancing within them.
The Light of Life's Evolution, 70% complete.
Chi Ping: "The artificial soul ring experiment begins."
The first step is shaping.
Chi Shu: "Soul power connection, introduction of faith and divine power, shaping of the origin, shaping of the ring structure."
Chi Ping: "The light of life is infused, and the basic soul guide inscription is engraved to stabilize the ten-thousand-year soul ring form."
Mycelium connected to the surface of the pool from all directions, and soul power condensed into a black ring under the guidance of the green light. The green light danced on the ring, engraving intricate inscriptions.
Both spirit rings and spirit tools are devices for converting spirit power, and they share commonalities. After obtaining the knowledge inherited from the divine position, Chi Ping can inscribe spirit tool runes into his spirit rings.
Chi Ping: "The second step is to imprint skills. Imprint two skills: the passive skill Life Perception Vision and the active skill Life Magnetic Field."
Chi Shu: "Lightning element infusion, life energy infusion."
Chi Ping: "Constructed from the essence of life and lightning, passive inscription is engraved, and active inscription is prepared."
Lightning element and pure life energy intertwined and merged. The Light of Life drew them together, merging them into the black spirit ring. During this process, the Light of Life emitted a mysterious vibrational frequency, and more complex spirit guide inscriptions took shape within the spirit ring.
Ikehira: "The third step is packaging."
The light of life guided divine power, compressing the soul ring structure and gathering the origin. In no time, a thumb-sized green-gold sphere fell into the plate formed by mycelium.
Chi Ping breathed slightly, and the flames of his blood and qi gradually subsided and receded.
Ikegi thoughtfully designed a seat for Ikehei to sit on.
"Dad, is it finished?"
Chi Shu solidified his form, curiously gazing at the "divinely bestowed soul ring" produced in Chiping.
The information for divinely bestowed spirit rings comes from divine positions and is an exclusive ability of gods. Divinely bestowed spirit rings automatically adapt to the user's physical condition, providing the most suitable spirit ring and spirit skill for the current situation. Chi Ping has improved upon this, creating spirit rings with fixed durations and spirit skills, lowering the upper limit and raising the lower limit.
Chi Ping nodded. "It's done. Remember to set a seal when you give it to Miki. A ten-thousand-year spirit ring is too overpowered for her; it will take at least a few years to fully absorb it. During the absorption process, this spirit ring will subtly promote the evolution of her martial soul. The specific results are unclear, but it will at least reach the level of innate level 7 spirit power."
"I love you, Dad!" Chi Shu smiled broadly.
Chi Ping shook his head. "When I obtained my sixth spirit ring, Miki helped me a lot. Consider this spirit ring a gift. Xiaoshu, remember to keep a close eye on her and make sure nothing happens to her."
Chi Shu said earnestly, "I've got it. By the way, Dad, I'll need your help to teleport it to Cold Forest Town."
"I'll go after I rest for a while."
Teleportation is a form of spatial teleportation, something Chi Ping is no stranger to. With the Mushroom House and Chi Shu's armed puppets as anchor points, teleporting a sphere the size of a thumb is nothing that Chi Ping cannot do, even if it involves crossing half a continent.
Three days later, at the Mushroom House, Xiao Miqi received the gift that her Tree Sister had promised.
After she absorbed the soul ring under the protection of the pond tree, she stared in disbelief at the pure blackness.
"Sister Tree! I...you...it..."
I didn't know where to put my hands.
Chi Shu nuzzled the girl's cheek. "How about it? Surprised? This was custom-made for you, Xiao Miqi, by my dad! Go try out the soul skill effect."
"This is far too valuable..."
Although Miki couldn't estimate the exact value of this spirit ring due to her limited experience, just imagining it made her realize how precious a ten-thousand-year spirit ring was, let alone that it was her first spirit ring as a nine-year-old girl. Its value was beyond description!
Chi Shu curled his nose. "My sister and her father are gods, what's so precious about this? It's just a spirit ring, nothing more than a wave of their hand to a god!"
"Can……"
Chi Shu interrupted Mi Qi, urging, "No buts! Besides, Little Mi Qi, you helped Dad a lot back then, this is what you deserve. Quickly try out your soul skill, this is a soul skill that your sister asked Dad to design especially for you. It's definitely worth it!"
Miki nodded and raised her hand to summon her martial soul and soul rings.
As his soul power circulated, the black soul ring quietly lit up, its light deep and restrained.
Invisible ripples spread out, and in an instant, the world in Miki's eyes changed.
Everything exudes a unique vibration and radiance.
Chi Shu explained, "Life Perception Vision, also known as Life Magnetic Field Vision, is a passive skill of a Soul Ring. It can be used once the Soul Ring is activated. Anything that cannot conceal its life energy cannot escape the observation of this vision." "Amazing!" Miki curiously observed the world through her perception vision.
"Sister Tree, I see lots of bright spots, what are they?"
"That's dissipated life energy. By the way, Miki, this spirit ring also has an active skill called Life Magnetic Field. You should try it out."
"oh!"
Although absorbing the spirit ring raised Miki's spirit power to level 13, this amount was still insufficient to power a normal ten-thousand-year spirit ring. But how could Chi Ping not have considered this!
Miki's soul ring consumption is controllable, and the effect varies depending on the amount of soul power input.
As Miki continued to channel her soul power, tiny sparks of electricity flickered within her body, and vibrant energy sparks danced around her.
Miki looked down at her fist and felt a continuous surge of power surging within her.
"Little Qi, come here and punch this wall."
A pale blue wall appeared next to the pond tree.
Miki walked to the wall, assumed a horse stance, and threw a punch with all her might.
Bang!
"good!"
Chi Shu nodded in satisfaction.
Miki clenched and unclenched her fists in surprise.
"It doesn't hurt~"
Chi Shu snorted, "The life magnetic field is essentially the manipulation of life energy, simply amplifying physical attributes—it's nothing special~"
Then, Chi Shu's expression turned serious. "Miki, do you want to learn kung fu from your sister? Your spirit ring has great potential for development; it could even be the prototype of a cultivation system. Your sister can guide you down this path."
Miki looked at Chi Shu and nodded seriously.
Chi Shu grinned, unable to suppress the smile.
—I have a little apprentice now, but he's not the youngest anymore!
She took Miki's little hand, and the two of them walked out of the Mushroom House together.
"Master will take you to the Spirit Hall to register. The first ever ten-thousand-year spirit ring! Wow!"
Clearly, the fact that a spirit ring has been the number one for ten thousand years has caused a huge uproar.
The intelligence was transmitted to everyone who could and should know it as quickly as possible.
Then, they stopped.
Apart from ignorant young lads and wandering rogues, no one dared to lay a hand on Chi Shu's students.
Mushroom houses and pond tree dolls exist in more than 100 medium-sized cities and most small cities across the continent, with a total of more than 1,000 dolls possessing at least the strength of a Soul King.
The best among them are even comparable to Soul Douluo and Title Douluo!
This number is still growing; Mushroom Houses are spreading at an alarming rate to every human settlement on the continent, whether in towns or villages.
These puppets alone are enough to terrify the entire Soul Master world.
Not to mention that the Chi Shu body at Shrek Academy will only become more powerful.
……
Poseidon Island, Poseidon Temple.
Chi Ping and Chi Shu's puppet clones sat at the end of the 1001 steps in front of the White Jade Temple. Tang San and the other eight people were on the steps undergoing the test of passing through the light of the Sea God.
Dai Mubai, Zhu Zhuqing, Oscar, and Ma Hongjun are all top-level seventh-grade test takers; Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong are black-level sixth-grade test takers; Shui Bing'er is a black-level fifth-grade test taker; and Tang San is a sea god ninth-grade test taker.
Their first test was to pass through the light of the sea god and climb these steps; the only difference was the final height.
Apart from Shui Bing'er, everyone else had received training from Chi Ping and had mastered both Qi and blood and intuition. Their physical qualities were all at a genius level. Shui Bing'er, on the other hand, had absorbed the pure life force of the Life Praise, which greatly enhanced her potential.
The Light of the Sea God is an enhanced version of gravity training, so completing the test is not difficult for them.
However, the environment of the Sea God's Light is quite beneficial to the cultivation of physical strength and soul power. They all plan to complete the assessment before the deadline and strive to obtain the greatest benefit.
"So boring~~~"
Chi Shu lay back, feeling utterly bored.
Inside the temple, the Sea God Douluo Poseidon had a strange expression.
No one had ever dared to be so presumptuous in front of the Temple of Poseidon, except for these two people who had received special permission from Poseidon, or rather, "gods".
"Dad, why won't Grandma Poseidon agree to let me interview her?"
"It must be that old bastard Poseidon's request. That old rascal who's always trying to make things mysterious."
"He's so annoying!"
Chi Shu's program "Approaching the World" has already filmed the Spirit Hall, Heaven Dou City, and Star Luo City once. Before filming other content, Chi Shu plans to release a special episode featuring interviews with the top powerhouses on the continent.
Level 99 Angel Douluo Qian Daoliu, Level 99 Sea God Douluo Poseidon, Level 99 Haotian Douluo Tang Chen.
Unfortunately, Chi Shu couldn't find a level 99 soul power on the mountain where the Haotian Sect was hidden, and Poseidon also refused to give interviews because the Sea God held a grudge.
Even if Qian Daoliu accepts, it will be meaningless.
Inside the temple, Poseidon had already shut down her hearing.
Chi Ping and Chi Shu could talk about the sea god freely, and it didn't matter if they were disrespectful to the sea god, but she couldn't, she couldn't even listen.
Normally, she should punish Ikehira and Ikeki at all costs, but the sea god conveyed a divine message to "let him go," and Poseidon realized that these were just two puppets, so there was no point in her destroying them.
Furthermore, could Poseidon defeat a puppet empowered by divine power?
"Your Majesty Poseidon!"
"Grandma Poseidon!"
Two people who didn't want to see each other were right in front of her, so Poseidon had no choice but to lift the seal on her hearing.
"What are your requests, Your Majesties?"
Chi Shu said, "My dad and I are going out to sea. Grandma Poseidon, do you have a nautical chart of the surrounding waters?"
—I'm still very young!
Poseidon roared inwardly. No woman wants to be called "grandma," especially not a woman as old as her, but who looked so young.
Yes, I'll get it for you right away.
"Thank you, Grandma!"
Don't be angry, don't be angry, don't be angry... Anyway, these two troublemakers are leaving soon, and it will be peaceful again!
A moment later, Poseidon brought out a nautical chart.
"Do you need me to find you a seagoing vessel?"
Chi Ping took the nautical chart and glanced at it.
"No need. Little Tree and I can use mycelium to build ships, and I can understand this nautical chart."
Poseidon understood. "Do you need me to take you to the port?"
Chi Ping and Chi Shu shook their heads together.
Many hyphae extend from them, forming new clones nearby.
"We'll take our leave now."
After the original two people left, the two newly created dolls opened their eyes.
Chishu Shin: "Tsk! Leaving me here while you went out to play? That's just too much!"
Chi Pingxin bowed to Poseidon and said, "Please forgive me for continuing to bother you, senior."
Poseidon gave up.
