Chapter 56 So that's what I was thinking?

Xiao Qiang was full of questions. He didn't understand why the old man in front of him had suddenly changed his mind. However, Xiao Qiang was concerned about something else at the moment.

"You said that the Ten Thousand Souls Banner in your hand is called the Human Emperor's Banner?"

"Nonsense! Boy, don't slander me, or I'll show you what the agony of soul refinement is!"

"I won't even mention the suffering of soul refining brought about by the Human Emperor's Banner. Your Myriad Soul Banner is clearly emitting black smoke, not the Human Emperor's Banner!"

"Hmph, what my Emperor's Banner emits is not black smoke, but an extremely dense primordial purple aura. Because it is purple to a certain degree, it appears black. Junior, you have slandered me time and time again. Have you thought about how you want to die!"

Xiao Qiang: "..."

Jin Chuan: "..."

"Teacher, if we were going to kill him, why did you hit me just now? And shouldn't we have been more careful?"

Xiao Qiang was speechless, while Jin Chuan was crying with snot and tears streaming down his face.

He was in the middle of getting carried away when his teacher pulled him down, and he quickly figured out what was going on.

A Soul Master who can defeat a Five-Ring Soul Master with a Four-Ring Soul Master is not only a genius, but also needs powerful resources to support him. Moreover, a Soul Master like himself is capable of challenging opponents of higher levels. Even if he had the advantage of attribute restraint, the fact that he could defeat him with an eleven-level difference in Soul Power shows that Xiao Qiang is a top genius.

Such geniuses not only need their own talent, but also need to accumulate high-level soul rings. Even if a thousand-year soul skill that can freeze one's own ten-thousand-year soul skill has the advantage of martial soul quality and the factor of attribute restraint, that soul ring must be more than eight thousand five hundred years old.

The fourth spirit ring is 8,500 years old. Putting aside how difficult it is to hunt spirit beasts of this level, a spirit ring that is more than 8,500 years old would almost certainly cause a person who has cultivated to level 40 to explode and die if they absorbed it.

Soul rings that are over 8,500 years old not only require the help of strong individuals to hunt them, but more importantly, they must have top-tier rare treasures to help them lay a solid foundation beforehand. Without exception, this all indicates that Xiao Qiang comes from a very high background.

Considering that Xiao Qiang, a four-ring Soul Master, challenged himself to become a five-ring Soul King and even won, it's almost certain that Xiao Qiang has a powerful protector by his side.

This was what Jin Chuan thought of after calming down from being slapped by his teacher. Therefore, he understood why his teacher would see him beaten like this and then beat him up instead, and then choose to let things go.

Both of them have their own set of behavioral guidelines. They will never make a move unless they have a 98% chance of winning. They will wait until they become Title Douluo before they become arrogant. By then, they will be stronger, and with the Holy Spirit Cult backing them, they will have no problem.

Therefore, Jin Chuan was not angry after being beaten. Instead, he was secretly glad that his teacher had pulled him back to his senses. The humiliation he had just suffered had made him lose his temper, which was not a good thing for them. Therefore, it was right for him to be beaten.

Jin Chuan initially thought this way, until his teacher told Xiao Qiang that he had a way to die.

No, you're planning to kill him, and then you want to beat me up before that? Why should I get beaten up?

Jin Chuan looked at his teacher with an expression of utter grievance.

"Ahem, that's because I wasn't sure about the strength of his protector, so I had to be cautious."

"Teacher, do you mean you know what level of strength his protector has?" Jin Chuan was full of questions.

Seeing that Xiao Qiang had no intention of leaving, he instead began to lecture Jin Chuan. "You're still a bit young, kid. Although you're cautious, sometimes your brain isn't quite up to par."

"Let me ask you, under what circumstances would a young and impetuous person instantly choose to back down?"

Jin Chuan thought for a moment before speaking. "It's certain that our strength is completely inferior to theirs."

"Indeed, it's certain that his strength is far inferior to the opponent's. Under what circumstances would he be certain that his strength is inferior to mine?"

Jin Chuan's eyes lit up, and he blurted out, "His protector is a Soul Saint!"

"Yes, but also wrong. If this kid's protector is only a Soul Saint, then he can guarantee to defeat you, but he can hardly guarantee that this kid won't get into trouble while you are fighting him."

Hearing himself say that all the time, Jin Chuan exclaimed in surprise, "Contra!"

"Then, teacher, what do we...?"

Jin Chuan's teacher waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, do you remember when I first taught you?"

"It's only safe to make a move when the odds of winning are 98% or higher."

"That's right, it's only safe to make a move when the odds of winning are 98%."

"The odds of winning are 98%? But teacher, his protector hasn't appeared yet, has he?" Jin Chuan felt like his brain wasn't working properly; he couldn't understand what he hadn't grasped.

"I'll give you a hint: think about what he just said, and think about why I'm taking action this time."

"A nine-by-eight chance of winning... wait, could it be...?"

Jin Chuan's teacher smiled with relief. "It seems you've figured it out."

"Thank you for your guidance, teacher. He clearly has a bodyguard at the level of a Contra Douluo, but he, who should have been young and arrogant, did not refuse your suggestion immediately, and did not even think about discussing it. This shows that he backed down. There is only one situation that can make a young and arrogant person back down: he is sure that his protector is no match for you, teacher."

"Even though both of them are eight-ring Soul Douluo, it's obvious at a glance that he can't beat you. That can only mean that the Soul Ring configuration of his protector is terrible. If he were a Soul Douluo with two yellow, three purple, and three black rings, it wouldn't be enough for a young man's arrogance to make him back down so quickly. Since that's the case, then it can only mean that the Soul Ring configuration of his protector is even worse. Three yellow, two purple, and three black rings, that's the Soul Ring configuration of his protector."

"A Soul Douluo of this level, let alone reaching the Title Douluo level, is almost impossible to even reach level 85. He is more likely to only reach level 81 to 82. Because he comes from a large family, he understands better the difference between the strongest and the worst Soul Ring combination. That's why he subconsciously did not refuse your request, teacher."

"So that's what I originally thought?" Xiao Qiang was full of questions.

"Hmph, kid, it's too late to realize your mistake now. You want to play dumb? Too bad, a person's first reaction is their truest reaction. Do you think I'll fall for your tricks?"

Xiao Qiang sighed. With the two of them reasoning logically and logically, if he hadn't already confirmed that Xue Di was resting in Xiao Qiang's storage soul tool, he himself would have believed it.
