Douluo Continent: Awakening the Original Martial Soul at the Start.

Chapter 39 Entering the Star Dou Great Forest Alone

"Come on over, have some water and eat! After you finish eating, rest for two hours, then we'll continue training!"

Hu Liena and the others immediately dragged their tired bodies to Li Fei's side, picked up the food on the table and began to eat heartily.

"While we're eating, let me make this clear to you: each of you only has one chance to make a mistake. If you make a second mistake, you'll be sent back to the regular class. Don't waste your time here."

Upon hearing this, the two students who had fallen and couldn't get up showed shame in their eyes; out of fifteen people, they were the only two who had fallen behind.

Hu Liena and the others were also very serious. They could tell that Li Fei was not joking. Even if she couldn't persevere, Li Fei would probably send her back to a regular class.

Two months passed quickly. Li Fei's soul power increased by one level, reaching level thirty-eight. Hu Liena and the others also became familiar with this extreme training method and began to train on their own every day without Li Fei's supervision.

There are now only ten students left. Five of them couldn't persevere and were sent to the regular class. The remaining ten are all top-tier in terms of both temperament and aptitude.

During this time, Li Fei also spent a long time wandering around the school, but he did not find a single person with a Body Spirit. No wonder the Body Spirit Sect was fighting all over the continent for Body Spirit owners during the second Douluo Continent.

The original spirit is very special. Most awakenings are not related to the parents' spirit rings. Regardless of what kind of spirit the parents have, it is possible to awaken a spirit. Only a small number of awakenings are due to the parents also having the original spirit.

"It seems that I'll need Qian Renxue's help to establish the Body Sect. A year from now, when we arrive in the Heaven Dou Empire, I'll ask her to help me gather people who have awakened their Body Martial Souls there, preferably from remote rural areas!"

Sitting against the wall of the training field, Li Fei began to ponder.

"Your Highness, what brings you here?!" Sensing the familiar presence beside him, Li Fei turned and asked curiously.

"Can't I even come and see you?!" Qian Renxue appeared, sat down next to him, skillfully took Li Fei's arm, and asked with a slightly dangerous tone.

"How could that be! You can come see me anytime!" Li Fei said with an embarrassed smile.

"After refining the Cloud Illusion Soul Bone, I've been imitating the Swan Martial Soul and changing the color of my Soul Rings for the past two months. I finally mastered the knack, so I came to check on your progress!" Qian Renxue said calmly, looking at Hu Liena and the others training in the distance.

But Li Fei could indeed hear a hint of weariness in her voice, and he understood that the events that had happened recently had left Qian Renxue unsure of how to cope.

"I still have ten months to go undercover. Use this time to torture these trainees and relax a bit!" Li Fei laughed, pointing to Hu Liena in the distance.

"Instructing trainees?!" Looking at the youthful faces of Hu Liena and the others, and recalling Li Fei's and his own training, he thought, "That's fine. Training there is training anyway, and it might leave a bit of psychological trauma on her group. Not bad!"

"Then I'll go down and add some extra ingredients for them!"

Qian Renxue flashed into the simulated environment control area and directly added sunlight to the original environment, instantly accelerating the loss of physical strength for Hu Liena and the others.

The sudden change caused Hu Liena and the other ten people, who were originally focused on running, to instantly turn their attention to the mimicry controller and see Qian Renxue.

"Who are you?! Who told you to touch that thing?!" Hu Liena immediately questioned.

"You don't need to know who I am, you just need to know that from now on I will be your teacher!"

Qian Renxue acted casually, and the next second, her four spirit rings—purple and black—exploded, their powerful spirit energy causing Hu Liena and the others to lose their footing.

"Don't fall behind. Don't forget, some of you have no chance left!" Li Fei kindly reminded him.

Hu Liena and the others had to continue training under the pressure of Qian Renxue's soul power. Although the difficulty had increased significantly, the results were indeed very good, and the ten people's improvement speed had also increased considerably.

In less than a month, Hu Liena and others have improved significantly.

Unfortunately, three people couldn't hold on and were eliminated, leaving seven people: Hu Liena, Xie Yue, Yan, Sun Chuantao, Li Kai, Zhang Ping, and Xu Yu, all former members of the Spirit Hall's Golden Generation.

Everything was on track, and another six months passed. Li Fei's soul power successfully broke through to level 40, and he could start hunting for soul rings.

"Xue'er, you'll be in charge of Hu Liena and the others' training for a while. Have Xiao Fan come and assist you too; there shouldn't be any problems!"

At the academy gate, Li Fei spoke with a hint of tenderness in his eyes. In order to avoid revealing his identity, he also changed how he addressed Qian Renxue.

"Are you really going to go alone without Uncle Yu's help to hunt for spirit rings?" Qian Renxue looked at Li Fei worriedly, wanting to persuade him again.

"No need. I've been in the Spirit Hall all these years and haven't experienced real life-or-death battles. This is a good opportunity to find spirit beasts and train properly for a while!"

Li Fei shook his head. Although his strength had been increasing over the years and he had enough combat experience, he had never actually fought a real battle. This might put him at a disadvantage when facing opponents of similar strength, and he might even lose his life.

He had been aware of this problem for a long time, which is why he chose to go hunting for spirit rings alone this time.

"Then be careful, I'll wait for you to come back!"

"Don't worry, I'll be back before you leave. I promised to go to Tiandou City with you." Li Fei smiled confidently.

"I'm leaving!"

With a wave of his hand, Li Fei ran out of Wuhun City and headed towards the Star Dou Great Forest.

Both the Tree of Life and the Blue Silver King are extremely rare, making them very difficult to find. Li Fei is prepared to spend a long time in the Star Dou Forest.

After a week of travel, Li Fei successfully passed through Soto City and entered the Star Dou Great Forest. Using the mental probing created by his simulated third soul skill, he carefully moved through the forest.

"No, this will deplete my mental energy, and it will be very dangerous in this environment!"

Feeling that his mental energy was mostly depleted, Li Fei immediately shut down the detection and began to use his five senses to observe the hidden threats.

"As expected of a paradise for soul beasts, there are so many kinds of soul beasts here!"

As they ventured deeper, they encountered an increasing variety of spirit beasts, each with greater cultivation levels. They even saw several spirit beasts that had just reached the ten-thousand-year mark, but these were all ordinary spirit beasts and not suitable for them.

"How can we find the Blue Silver King and the Tree of Life?! These two soul beasts don't have high attack power, so their concealment abilities are top-notch; they're very difficult to spot without a certain level of skill!"

Sitting under a tree, Li Fei frowned, pondering a solution. He had been there for a week and hadn't found a single hair of the Blue Silver King, let alone the Tree of Life, which had even stronger vitality.

I gently slammed my hand on the ground and felt like I hit something.
