Qian Xunji was the one who lacked talent. He tried to break through to the Soul Saint level but failed to pass the Angel God Test.
Today, after absorbing whale glue, Qian Xunji discovered that his innate talent had been compensated, which gave him renewed hope for the Angel God Test.
"Excellent! If it's useful, I'll take some men to the sea in a few days and hunt more for you."
Upon hearing this, Jin E immediately smiled with delight. Qian Xunji had practically grown up under his nose. Although he hadn't shown any outstanding talent, he was still his elder brother's son.
Now that there is a way to make up for the troubles caused by his eagerness for success in his youth, even he showed such an excited expression for the first time in a long time.
With the help of the Angel God's divine power, Qian Daoliu examined Qian Xunji for a moment, and finally sighed helplessly in his heart.
"Alright, Ji'er, take these whale glues back and refine them first. Those thousand-year-old ones probably won't work on you. You can distribute them yourself."
"Thank you, Father."
Qian Xunji did not notice the change in his father's emotions. He reached out and took the remaining fourteen whale glue capsules, said goodbye, and left.
"Ugh……"
"Brother, why are you sighing?" Jin E looked at Qian Daoliu, who had suddenly sighed, with some confusion, and asked, "Shouldn't you be happy that Ji'er's talent can be compensated?"
The Azure Phoenix and the Lion also looked at Qian Daoliu with puzzled and confused eyes.
“I just used my angelic powers to check on Ji’er’s condition. The whale gel was useful, but it was too little, almost negligible. Moreover, it only improved her physique, not her talent for cultivation.”
"So what? If 80,000 years isn't enough, we old guys will hunt for Ji'er for 100,000 years!"
Golden Crocodile Douluo was puzzled, but he was extremely domineering. He had finally found a solution, so he couldn't give up.
"It's useless. Even if it's a hundred thousand years old, it will only help Ji'er improve her foundation. Ultimately, it won't achieve the desired results, unless..."
"Brother, unless what?"
"Unless we can find the legendary Herb of Heavenly Light, no matter how much whale jelly Ji'er eats, she will never gain the approval of the Angel God and will be stuck at level 97 forever."
"Light of Paradise Grass, what is that?"
The Lion Douluo was puzzled, saying that he had never heard of a blade of grass having such a great effect in all his life.
"That is a legendary, rare herb that is said to be seen only once every thousand years. Legend has it that our ancestor greatly increased his strength after eating this herb, and his cultivation became as natural as eating and drinking."
At this point, Qian Daoliu shook his head helplessly: "Unfortunately, it is just a legend after all. Whether this immortal herb exists in this world is still unknown."
"Even if it exists, could there be a second one of such a divine object?"
Hearing this, Jin E understood his elder brother's meaning and sighed helplessly, "Alas, fate is truly unpredictable."
"Even so, we still need to help Ji'er break through to level 97 first. As for the Bright Paradise Grass, we'll try our best to find it, but whether we can find it or not depends entirely on fate."
Qian Daoliu nodded: "That's the only way."
Qian Xunji was unaware of all this, and instead returned to his secret chamber with great joy to begin refining the other four pieces of ten-thousand-year whale glue.
On the other side, Gu Han had just finished his class for the day when he was caught red-handed by Bibi Dong.
"Junior brother, let's continue the story."
Gu Han smiled and said, "Senior sister, you should tell stories, but you should also study hard."
"Hmm..." Bibi Dong pouted, crossed her arms, and ran away, turning her head away: "I know, then let's go to the library for an hour first, and then I'll tell you a story."
Bibi Dong looks very charming and cute, even a little bit arrogant.
Gu Han really liked this kind of girl who had personality but wasn't spoiled.
"Okay, but let's make a deal, senior sister."
"What agreement?" Bibi Dong asked, puzzled.
Gu Han smiled warmly and said, "From now on, Senior Sister, you can spend an hour with me in the library to read books, and Junior Brother will tell you stories every day."
"Reading..."
Upon hearing the word "reading," Bibi Dong hesitated instantly, her bright eyes lowering slightly as if she were lost in thought.
"Senior sister, what do you think of junior brother's suggestion?"
Gu Han continued to press, lest this girl come up with some other crazy idea later.
"Hmm, alright, but the story you tell has to be interesting, junior brother."
Bibi Dong nodded, but still made a small request.
"Don't worry, it'll definitely be fun."
Gu Han smiled and nodded. He had a lot of interesting stories in his mind. Not to mention the classics, the works of great authors he had seen online were enough for him to tell the other person.
The two arrived at the library entrance, chatting and laughing.
Before entering, Bibi Dong paused slightly, her gaze fixed on the library door, as if she were making a decision. She clenched her small fist, mustered her courage, and followed Gu Han into the library.
"So many books..."
Looking at the dazzling array of books in the library, Bibi Dong felt as if she had entered some terrifying place, and her face showed the expression of a playful elementary school student doing homework.
"Alright, senior sister, if you can't understand it, I'll explain it to you."
Gu Han smiled and patted Bibi Dong's little head.
Bibi Dong simply pursed her lower lip and nodded, seemingly unaware that she had just been patted on the head.
Gu Han could guess that Bibi Dong didn't like reading; her playfulness was one thing.
The knowledge in this book is indeed too cumbersome. Many things that could be explained in just a few words are instead described in several pages.
Let alone children, just look at how empty the library is; even adults are too lazy to look around.
Gu Han selected several books from the bookshelf about how Soul Masters choose Soul Rings.
Bibi Dong sniffed her small, delicate nose. "Junior brother, there are so many, can you finish reading them all?"
Gu Han smiled and said, "Senior sister, these books look very thick, but the core knowledge is actually just a little bit. I'll explain it to you and you'll understand."
"OK then……"
Bibi Dong nodded her little head.
Seeing Bibi Dong like this, Gu Han could only sigh in his heart. He had really gone to great lengths to prevent this innocent child from being fooled by Master Yu in the future.
Chapter 27 The First Step to Preventing Love-Obsessed Mentality: Teaching Bibi Dong the Theory of Martial Souls
"Senior sister, do you know why this book says that weapon spirits cannot absorb beast spirits?"
Gu Han held a book and started the conversation by asking questions.
"I think the teacher mentioned it... but I've forgotten."
Bibi Dong thought for a moment, then shook her head. She thought the teacher had mentioned this before, but she hadn't listened at all.
Gu Han shook his head slightly. As expected, he was a poor student.
"On the mainland, people often classify plant-type martial souls as weapon-type martial souls."
"Although some people say that martial spirits on the mainland are divided into three categories, most people believe that they are divided into two categories: beast martial spirits and weapon martial spirits."
"Senior sister must have heard of the Haotian Hammer and the Seven Kill Sword, right?"
"Yes, I know. The Clear Sky Hammer is the inherited martial soul of the Clear Sky Sect, and the Seven Kill Sword is the martial soul of the Sword Douluo of all generations. Both are among the most famous top-tier weapon martial souls on the continent."
Bibi Dong nodded; she knew these basic things.
"Yes, the Clear Sky Hammer, the Seven Kill Sword, and my junior brother's sword martial soul all have one thing in common: they are all weapons."
"Junior Brother's sword spirit, both his first and second spirit rings were hunting beast spirit beasts. Not only were they successful, but they also improved the attributes and quality of his spirit."
"Plant-type spirits are different. Take Senior Yue Guan's spirit as an example. Based on my conversation with Senior Yue Guan and my understanding, all of his spirit rings come from plant-type spirit beasts that are rich in metal and have powerful attack capabilities."
"Hmm, so why do you say that weapon spirits can't absorb the spirit rings of beast spirits?" Bibi Dong tilted her head thoughtfully, puzzled.
"To be precise, plant-type spirits do not belong to weapon spirits, but should be separated. Spirit masters have a characteristic when absorbing spirit rings: in order to evolve their spirits, they need to absorb spirit beasts of the same attribute."
"It's not impossible for plant-type soul masters to absorb soul rings from beast-type soul beasts, but there's a possibility that their martial souls will mutate or even degenerate. The best outcome would be that they wouldn't be able to improve the quality of their martial souls."
"Senior sister, think about it. What would happen if a plant-type martial soul with strong vitality absorbed a poisonous beast soul?"
"Hmm..." Bibi Dong thought for a moment, then tentatively replied, "Will it degenerate?"
Gu Han smiled and explained, "If the quality of its martial soul is already very high, absorbing one or two won't have any impact. But if it keeps absorbing, then the original function of its martial soul will be completely covered up, and it will not be able to continue to evolve to a good state. There is even a risk of degeneration."
"Moreover, if a martial soul cannot evolve, then a person who should have the talent to break through to level 97 as a titled Douluo may be stuck before level 95 for life and never be able to make any progress."
"Conversely, the same applies to Beast Martial Souls."
"So in my junior brother's opinion, it's more accurate to say that plant-type spirit masters, unless they are 100,000-year-old spirit beasts, should not absorb beast spirit rings rather than weapon spirits."
In the original novel, Tang San was like this. His first few to four spirit rings were all from spirit beasts with poison and dark attributes. Before he absorbed the immortal herb, the Blue Silver Grass was as brittle as paper.
That poison is practically useless; in the later stages, it becomes completely unnecessary. Stronger opponents aren't afraid of its paralyzing effect at all, and anyone can easily defeat those weaker than themselves.
If it weren't for Tang San having hidden weapons and the Tang Sect's secret techniques as a backup, he probably wouldn't have even been able to get past Cang Hui, let alone the finals.
Throughout the entire competition, in the end, facing true geniuses, Tang San's Blue Silver Grass was completely ineffective; it was almost entirely Tang Sect's ultimate techniques and even the Clear Sky Hammer that provided the final blow.
Tang San's martial soul also began to take an unconventional path after the Blue Silver King helped him fully awaken the Blue Silver Emperor martial soul starting from his fifth spirit ring.
Abandoning the previous comedic and poisonous soul skill routes, he embarked on the offensive type. The Blue Silver Overlord Spear and the Spring Breeze Blows Again soul bone skill can be said to have helped Tang San pass several divine trials.
Fortunately, Tang San's Blue Silver Grass was not an ordinary Blue Silver Grass, but the Blue Silver Emperor that had not yet awakened.
If it's really just ordinary Blue Silver Grass, it will most likely be ruined by the Jade Belt Master.
On another note, if Tang San had absorbed plant-type spirit rings of the same attribute for his first four spirit rings, would it be possible that he would have evolved on his own?
Gu Han shook his head. He couldn't be sure about these things either. However, he was certain that even if he couldn't evolve into a Blue Silver Emperor, he would be more than capable of evolving into a Blue Silver King on his own.
"Oh, I see. No wonder the first two soul beasts the teacher prepared for me were spider-type soul beasts with the same poison attribute as my martial soul."
Bibi Dong seemed to understand something, and looked as if she had just realized something.
"But then again, why don't 100,000-year-old soul beasts have this requirement?"
"Because a 100,000-year-old soul beast is no longer comparable to an ordinary soul beast. Once a soul beast breaks through 100,000 years, it undergoes a qualitative change. At that time, even if a plant-type soul master absorbs it, even if the attributes are not equal, the boost it brings will be much stronger than that of a 90,000-year-old soul beast of the same attribute."
"Moreover, the most crucial point is that a 100,000-year-old soul beast will definitely produce a soul bone and will grant the soul master two powerful soul skills."
"So that's how it is..."
