Simultaneous Transmigration: From Douluo Continent to the Pinnacle

Chapter 32 Level 20, Physical Strength Comparable to a Soul Master

Douluo World.

Heavenly Dou Royal Academy

In the tranquil student dormitory, the morning light filtered through the carved window frames, casting dappled golden rays onto the beds covered with plain brocade.

Lin Yao, who was sitting cross-legged, slowly opened his eyes. A hint of sleepiness flashed across his eyes, which were then replaced by a sudden burst of surprise.

He subconsciously raised his hand and placed it over his dantian, clearly feeling the soul power within his body surging like a rushing stream in his palm.

Compared to yesterday, that power surged several times over, and the previously stagnant bottleneck quietly dissipated like ice and snow melting in warm water.

"Level 20!"

Lin Yao muttered to himself, his fingertips trembling slightly.

At his original cultivation speed, it would have taken him at least several months of arduous training to break through to level 20.

But the surging soul power within him at this moment meant that he had superimposed his selves from other worlds, and in one fell swoop he saved months of hard training, and stood firmly on the threshold of obtaining his second soul ring.

Slowly rising to his feet, Lin Yao stepped barefoot onto the cool wooden floor. His soul power flowed unconsciously around him, outlining a faint, shimmering white halo in the morning light.

Raise your hand and clench your fist, feeling the solid strength emanating from your bones and muscles, your mind becomes clear:

In this superposition of worlds, the improvements brought by "themselves" from the school world and the Hong Kong variety show world are merely icing on the cake. The real key is the newly added "Lin Yao" from the Condor Heroes world.

That body, which had cultivated the Golden Bell Shield and Iron Shirt techniques, carried an awe-inspiring and powerful blood energy, like molten lava flowing into his flesh.

Lin Yao closed his eyes and looked inward at his body. He could clearly see that his body, which could only bear a soul ring for more than two thousand years, was now like refined iron that had been tempered.

Its carrying capacity has soared to the level of five thousand years.

It should be noted that a physical strength of two thousand years is equivalent to the level of a thirty-third or thirty-fourth-level Soul Master.

The five-thousand-year level is the best level of soul ring configuration for a Soul Master, which is a qualitative leap.

"And there's also the blessing of the Star Body."

Lin Yao looked up at the sky outside the window. Although it was already dawn, he could still catch a glimpse of a few remaining stars.

Last night during my cultivation, the stellar energy that my Star Body spontaneously absorbed was like fine silver sand, seeping into my limbs and bones.

It not only nourishes the soul power, but also tempers the physical body to become more and more resilient.

He gently raised his hand, his fingertips tracing the air, creating a faint sound of air being cut. His physical strength far surpassed that of other Soul Masters of the same level.

What reassured him even more was that the spiritual power within his spiritual sea, far exceeding his soul power, was like a calm lake, undisturbed yet unfathomably deep.

Lin Yao knew that with this spiritual power, he would never lose control of his soul power when absorbing a ten-thousand-year soul ring in the future.

"Everything is going according to plan, and the foundation is becoming more and more solid."

A faint smile appeared on Lin Yao's lips, his gaze growing increasingly resolute.

The following morning, in the main hall of the Tiandou Royal Academy, the air was filled with the fragrance of sandalwood, and a plaque symbolizing the academy's majesty hung on the ancient wooden beams.

Lin Yao, dressed in his student uniform, stepped steadily into the hall, where the three instructors were already seated in the main seats.

Meng Shenji, with his white hair and beard and wise eyes; Bai Baoshan, with his burly figure and resolute face; and Zhilin, with his reserved expression and calm aura.

"Three senior members of the Education Commission, I am Lin Yao. I have come today to inform you that I have broken through to level 20 of Soul Power last night."

Lin Yao bowed slightly, his voice clear and steady.

The moment the words were spoken, the air in the hall seemed to freeze.

Meng Shenji paused slightly in his teacup, a few drops of scalding tea splashing out and landing on the hem of his plain robe, but he didn't even notice.

Bai Baoshan suddenly sat up straight, his previously relaxed muscles instantly tensing, his eyes filled with disbelief.

Even the usually silent Zhilin couldn't help but raise his eyelids, his gaze falling directly on Lin Yao, with a hint of barely perceptible tremor.

"hiss--

—

The three of them gasped almost simultaneously, leaving only the soft sound of gasps echoing in the hall.

"A six-and-a-half-year-old at level 20—what does that even mean?"

Bai Baoshan broke the silence first, his voice slightly hoarse.

He had lived for nearly a hundred years and had seen countless geniuses, but he had never heard of anyone who could break through to level 20 at the age of six and a half.

Moreover, when Lin Yao came to report yesterday, he was clearly still at level eighteen of soul power!

A storm raged in Meng Shenji's heart, and a terrifying thought flashed through his mind.

Could it be that someone tampered with Lin Yao, using evil magic to forcibly enhance his soul power and destroy his foundation?

Thinking of this, he could no longer sit still. He suddenly stood up, walked quickly to Lin Yao, and grabbed the latter's shoulder.

The soul power in his palm, like fine silk threads, carefully seeped into Lin Yao's body, probing his soul power circulation and the state of his bones and muscles.

Lin Yao relaxed his body in compliance, allowing Meng Shenji's soul power to roam freely.

A moment later, Meng Shenji's tense brows slowly relaxed, he let out a long sigh, shook his head at Bai Baoshan and Zhilin who were looking at him with questioning eyes, and said in a deep voice: "It's nothing! My soul power is flowing smoothly, and my bones and muscles are strong and undamaged. It's definitely not caused by evil magic."

Upon hearing the words "nothing happened," Bai Baoshan and Zhilin breathed a sigh of relief.

They all knew in their hearts that Lin Yao was the personal disciple of Title Douluo Chen Xin.

If something goes wrong at the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy, given Chen Xin's personality, the entire academy will likely bear the wrath of this "Number One Attacker in the World".

Meng Shenji released his grip, and the light fell on Lin Yao, full of amazement: "You little rascal, you're truly an unexpected little monster."

He broke through two levels overnight, his soul power was as refined as steel, and his physical strength was comparable to that of a level 40 quasi-soul master.

Other geniuses with innate full soul power would probably have to wait until they were sixteen or seventeen to reach this level, but you—”

Before he could finish speaking, he shook his head repeatedly, his eyes overflowing with admiration.

"Six months ago, he was only at level ten of innate full soul power, and now he has broken through to level twenty. Such speed is simply unheard of."

Bai Baoshan stepped forward, gently patted Lin Yao's shoulder, and spoke with deep emotion.

"Senior Chen Xin has truly taken on a fine disciple. It is our Heavenly Dou Royal Academy's good fortune to have formed a positive relationship with you."

Zhilin spoke slowly, his voice soft but full of certainty: "You're truly a little monster whose potential is beyond comprehension. Perhaps in ten or twenty years, you'll surpass us old guys."

He spent his entire life cultivating diligently, and only with great difficulty did he reach the Soul Douluo realm, still one step away from becoming a Title Douluo.

But this six-and-a-half-year-old child in front of us will likely achieve far more in the future than they have.

For Lin Yao, becoming a Title Douluo might just be a small stepping stone.

Faced with the praise from the three education commissioners, Lin Yao showed no arrogance. Instead, he bowed slightly and said humbly, "You flatter me, seniors. I only broke through earlier than others by chance, thanks to a bit of talent. There is still a long road ahead, and there is still much to learn."

Seeing his composure at such a young age, Meng Shenji was even more pleased and said with a smile, "Good child, it's important to maintain this humility. We were just amazed by your talent and praised you a bit too much. If you become arrogant, that would be bad."

In his view, with his exceptional talent and humble and cautious personality, Lin Yao's future is bound to be limitless.

"Little Yao, we old guys congratulate you in advance!"

Bai Baoshan said with a smile.

"Now that your soul power is stable and your physical body is strong, you will definitely be able to absorb a soul ring beyond your current age. In my opinion, it won't be long before you break the continent's record of 'breaking through to Soul Master at the age of thirteen'!"

"Once you break this record, I'm afraid no one will ever be able to surpass it again."

Zhilin added, his eyes full of anticipation.

Meng Shenji paused, as if remembering something, and asked, "Xiao Yao, do you need us to send someone to accompany you to hunt for your second spirit ring?"

He knew that Chen Xin valued Lin Yao highly and might have already planned out the soul rings for Lin Yao, so he did not make a decision on his own, but asked for Lin Yao's opinion first.

Upon hearing this, Lin Yao gently shook his head: "Thank you for your kindness, senior, but there's no need. Before sending me to the academy, my master instructed me that after I break through to level 20, I must not hunt soul beasts at will, and I need to return to the sect to ask him for help."

My master's Seven Kill Sword Martial Soul is the number one offensive Martial Soul in the world. He understands my mutated Star Sword Martial Soul better and can offer more reasonable suggestions on Soul Ring planning.

He paused, then added.

"My master didn't expect me to break through to level 20 so quickly. He originally thought it would take several more months."

Upon hearing this, Meng Shenji and the other two all smiled knowingly.

Even a titled Douluo couldn't have predicted Lin Yao's breakthrough speed. It's easy to imagine that when Lin Yao returns to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, Chen Xin will definitely show a look of astonishment.

They stopped insisting, since it was far safer for Chen Xin to personally hunt for the soul ring for Lin Yao than for them to send someone.

The Soul Beast Forest is fraught with danger. A genius like Lin Yao is bound to attract the covetous eyes of villains. Only with Chen Xin around can we ensure that nothing goes wrong.

Then, Meng Shenji summoned a trusted Soul Saint-level teacher and instructed him: "You will personally escort Lin Yao back to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and ensure his safety."

Although Lin Yao had a life-saving trump card left by Chen Xin, and the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy was not far from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, so if there was any danger, Chen Xin could arrive in a moment, they still had to maintain the proper etiquette and attitude.

Lin Yao was very grateful for the kindness of the three education committee members and did not refuse. He smiled and said, "Thank you for your trouble, seniors."

He has always believed in the philosophy that "having more friends means having more options," and he is happy to make friends with these seniors as long as they do not cross his bottom line.

After leaving the Education Commission's main hall, Lin Yao set off with the Soul Saint teacher.

The Soul Saint teacher unleashed his martial soul, a giant, snow-white eagle, carrying Lin Yao into the sky.

High in the sky, the wind blew in his face. Lin Yao looked down at the forests and fields rushing past below, his heart filled with anticipation.

In less than three hours, the outline of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School came into view.

The sect, nestled in the valley, had glazed tiles that shimmered in the sunlight, resembling a fairyland.

The Soul Saint teacher escorted Lin Yao to the foot of the mountain near the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, then bowed and took his leave: "Lin Yao, have a safe journey. I'll be returning to the academy to report now."

"Thank you for escorting me, teacher."

Lin Yao bowed in thanks and watched the Soul Saint teacher leave. However, he did not immediately go into the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, but instead turned and walked in another direction.

There was a small courtyard that Ning Fengzhi had arranged for his parents.

This small courtyard is located in a secluded spot on the back mountain of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, surrounded by dense bamboo forests, with a faint bamboo fragrance and soul energy fluctuations in the air.

The courtyard gate is a simple wooden fence with a string of wind chimes hanging on it, which make a crisp sound when a breeze blows.

Several orchids were planted in the courtyard, and a stone path led to the main house, from which faint traces of cultivation aura could be heard.

Lin Yao gently pushed open the courtyard gate, and the wind chimes jingled.

Inside the main room, Lin Yuyang and Zhao Wan, who were meditating cross-legged, opened their eyes at the same time. Upon hearing the familiar sound of wind chimes, they were both stunned for a moment before quickly walking out.

"Xiao Yao?"

When Zhao Wan saw her son standing in the courtyard, she was first stunned, then her face broke into a joyful smile. She quickly stepped forward and hugged Lin Yao tightly.

Her embrace was warm and soft, with a faint scent of grass and trees, and Lin Yao could clearly feel his mother's body trembling.

Since he went to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, his parents have moved to this small courtyard. Now, even though it has only been a day since they last met, his mother seems to have missed him for a long time.

Lin Yuyang also quickly stepped forward, his gaze falling on Lin Yao as he carefully examined him, his eyes full of concern.

He was more composed than Zhao Wan and quickly sensed something was wrong. He asked softly, "Xiao Yao, didn't you go to the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy to study? Why are you back so soon? Did something happen?"

Zhao Wan finally snapped out of her joy at the reunion, quickly letting go of Lin Yao and grabbing his hand, her eyes filled with anxiety: "Yes, Xiao Yao, you only went for one day and you're back already? Did you suffer any injustice at the academy? Or did you encounter any danger?"

As she asked, she looked Lin Yao up and down, as if afraid that he might be injured somewhere.

Lin Yao felt a warmth in his heart when he saw the worried looks in his parents' eyes. He smiled and shook his head, then took his mother's hand and whispered, "Dad, Mom, I'm fine. Actually, my soul power has broken through to level 20. I came back this time to ask my master to help me hunt for my second soul ring."

"Level 20?!"

Lin Yuyang's eyes widened suddenly, and he instinctively gasped, his voice trembling slightly.

He clearly remembered that when Lin Yao's martial soul awakened, he was only at level 10 with full innate soul power. Only half a year had passed, and he had already broken through to level 20.

Back then, he had a level 5 innate soul power, which was already quite a talent among his peers. However, he was already sixteen years old when he broke through to level 20.

Even though he cultivated diligently later, he is only at the Soul Master level now. But his six-and-a-half-year-old son will probably surpass him in a short time.

Zhao Wan didn't think so much. Upon hearing the news of her son's breakthrough, a proud smile instantly bloomed on her face. She gently stroked Lin Yao's hair, her tone tinged with pride: "My little Yao is so amazing! As expected of my child, he will definitely become the strongest Soul Master in the future and marry the most beautiful girl!"

As she spoke, her eyes lit up as if she had thought of something, and she added.

"If you could give me an obedient grandson and a well-behaved granddaughter, that would be perfect!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Yao looked helpless and his lips twitched: "Mom, I'm only six and a half years old."

Seeing his wife's hopeful expression, Lin Yuyang couldn't help but laugh. He patted Zhao Wan's shoulder and said helplessly, "You, the child is only so young, and you're already thinking about these things."

Even so, his eyes were full of tenderness. With a wife and children, and his family in good health, this was the greatest happiness in his life.

Zhao Wan stuck out her tongue, pulled Lin Yao into the main room, and muttered as she walked, "I was just imagining things in advance! By the way, Xiao Yao, you must be hungry, right? Mom will make you your favorite osmanthus cake and rock sugar lotus seed soup!"

"Okay, thank you, Mom."

Lin Yao smiled and nodded, his gaze sweeping over the familiar furnishings in the room.

On the table sat the wooden carvings he had played with as a child, and on the wall hung a photo of his parents; the air was filled with the warmth of home.

Lin Yuyang sat to the side, watching his son and wife busy at work, his eyes filled with satisfaction.

He knew that Lin Yao's future was destined to be extraordinary, and all he could do was protect this family and ensure that his son had no worries.

Sunlight streamed through the window, casting long shadows of the three people inside.

For a moment, the small courtyard was filled with warm laughter, which, together with the fragrance of bamboo and the sound of the wind outside, created a picture of peaceful tranquility.
