Douluo: This soul master is a big eater

Chapter 13 Star Forest

Notting College.

After Tang San made his bed, he went to Yu Xiaogang's room to report to his teacher.

Knock, knock, knock... Tang San knocked on the door politely.

"Come in." Yu Xiaogang's slightly hoarse voice came from the room.

Then Tang San slowly pushed the door open and walked in. He came to Yu Xiaogang's door and bowed slightly, saying, "Teacher."

Yu Xiaogang slowly stood up, patted Tang San's shoulder, and nodded as he felt Tang San's steadily increasing spirit power, "It seems that the holiday didn't make you slack off, not bad."

Hearing Yu Xiaogang's praise, Tang San was shocked and looked moved. However, when he thought of his father who disappeared after leaving only a letter, the emotion on his face slowly turned into depression.

Looking at Tang San's changing expression, Yu Xiaogang didn't say anything, but just sighed slightly and gently touched Tang San's head.

"Since you just came back, take a three-day break and then resume your studies every afternoon." Yu Xiaogang said softly.

Tang San nodded, with a hesitant look on his face. He really wanted to tell Yu Xiaogang about Yun Yi, but how could he explain his powerful Zhuge Divine Crossbow?
After thinking about it, Tang San suppressed the idea. How could such a mature hidden weapon appear out of thin air on a child who was only seven years old?
"What's wrong?" As if he saw Tang San's hesitation, Yu Xiaogang asked with some confusion.

Tang San slowly shook his head and said, "It's okay, Teacher, I might be a little tired."

Yu Xiaogang nodded. Tang Hao had come to look for him before leaving Tang San, so he naturally understood that his disciple might not be in a good mood.

Then Tang San slowly left.

……

A month later.

Blacksmith shop.

When Yun Yi handed the last forged part to Tang San, he couldn't wait to urge, "Xiao San, this is the last part, can we assemble it now?"

Hearing this, Tang San hurriedly took the parts from Yun Yi's hand and looked at Yun Yi with a hint of wariness. He was very clear about Yun Yi's strong learning ability. If Yun Yi learned all his assembly techniques, he would have nowhere to complain. He still wanted to make his fortune with hidden weapons.

"If you are planning to hunt soul beasts, then you should go back and pack your things and ask for leave from the Academic Affairs Office. When you come back, you will be able to see the hidden weapon you want." Tang San said.

Yun Yi nodded, said hello to Shi San, and left tactfully. He had no interest in Tang San's hidden weapons. Compared to hidden weapons, Yun Yi was more interested in the Sun and Moon Continent on the other side of the sea. Soul guides were weapons that were more suitable for soul masters besides weapon spirits, but he did not have the strength to cross the sea now.

But just like what Tang San said, he should indeed make some preparations. Without Yu Xiaogang's financial support for this trip, if he wants to go to the Star Dou Great Forest, he will probably have to spend several days sleeping in the open air.

Not long after, Yun Yi returned to the dormitory and had packed the things he needed, and Tang San also returned to the dormitory.

Yun Yi stared at Tang San eagerly, and Tang San also showed a helpless look on his face. He tapped his waist with his fingertips, and an unusually exquisite crossbow appeared in front of Yun Yi.

"Here, the weapons and crossbows you want are all loaded in here. Remember to install the spring when needed. This way, there will be less wear and tear, making it easier for you to use it for a long time." Tang San said seriously.

"Thank you, Xiao San." Looking at Tang San's appearance, Yun Yi took the Zhuge Divine Crossbow from his hand and sincerely thanked Tang San. No matter what Tang San's attitude towards him was at this time, the Zhuge Divine Crossbow was actually placed in front of Yun Yi.

Tang San nodded and said, "It's getting late, let's go to the Academic Affairs Office. If the teacher is off work, you will have to wait until tomorrow."

Looking at Tang San's appearance, Yun Yi even had some different ideas at this time.

“This guy, if I didn’t know that you were secretly learning and had unique skills, I might have really followed you wholeheartedly to become the eldest senior brother of the Tang Sect.” Yun Yi said secretly in his heart.

Thinking of this, Yun Yi slowly opened the door of the seventh dormitory. Looking at the setting sun in the distance, Yun Yi felt a little confused. From a certain perspective, he was also Tang San. Both of them had thieves in their hearts.

"Hehe." Yun Yi chuckled, carrying his bag and slowly leaving Dormitory 7. Yun Yi was also preparing to go to the Academic Affairs Office to do an important thing. It was not to ask for leave as Tang San said, but to directly apply for suspension of study.

With the help of Zhuge's magic crossbow, Yun Yi has the qualifications to hunt hundred-year-old soul beasts. At this time, Yun Yi thinks that the most suitable place for him to practice is no longer the school, but the gathering place of soul beasts. As for Tang San, he can't get any wool from him in a short time anyway, so it is better to stay in Shrek and get it later.

"Xiao San, see you at Shrek." Yun Yi couldn't help but smile as he thought about it.

Yun Yi, who was about to go to the Academic Affairs Office, happened to meet his old acquaintance Yu Xiaogang.

Yun Yi bowed slightly and chuckled as he greeted, "Hello, Master."

Looking at the package on Yun Yi's back, Yu Xiaogang couldn't help but frown slightly, nodded, and said, "Are you planning to hunt for your first spirit ring yourself?"

"Master is indeed a man of great insight." Yun Yi smiled and nodded.

“It seems that you have made up your mind to leave. However, Xiaoyi, Master still recommends that you choose the Thousand Jun Ant as your first soul ring. If you are willing to choose the Thousand Jun Ant as your first soul ring, I can guarantee that the age of your first soul ring will not be less than four hundred years.” Yu Xiaogang said seriously.

Yun Yi smiled and bowed slightly, "Thank you, Master. I will consider your suggestion carefully, but I still want to try it myself."

"Aiming too high and being unrealistic" and "a frog in a well" - an idiom appeared in the minds of both of them at the same time.

"Well, let this child suffer a little, then he will understand that my advice is the best." Yu Xiaogang said secretly.

Then Yu Xiaogang nodded and said calmly, "Well, that's good. The child should go out for a walk and protect himself when he goes out."

Hearing Yu Xiaogang emphasize the word "child" a little more and hearing that somewhat sarcastic tone, Yun Yi was not annoyed. He raised his eyes slightly, bowed, said nothing, and then went straight to the Academic Affairs Office.

The childish anger that Yu Xiaogang had expected did not appear. Looking at the receding figure, Yu Xiaogang couldn't help but think of his own disciple.

After just a moment, Yu Xiaogang dismissed the idea and murmured, "That's not even close."

Then Yu Xiaogang waved his sleeves, put his hands behind his back, and slowly left.

Yun Yi arrived at the Academic Affairs Office and quickly completed the procedures for taking a leave of absence. There are many children like Yun Yi, and as teachers in the academy, they are also very clear that apart from a book on meditation, they can't teach anything else, because most of the teachers in the academy are hovering in their twenties.

To be honest, I don’t even understand my own cultivation, so what can I teach my children?
Yun Yi carried the package on his back, turned around and looked at the Notting College sign at the entrance of the college and smiled slightly. At this moment, he smelled the scent of freedom and ease. …

Two months later.

The outskirts of the Star Dou Forest.

Roar……

The huge roar echoed in the forest, and even the leaves were shaking slightly. A black shadow was constantly moving among the trees.

Yun Yi ran madly in the forest, turning his head to look behind him from time to time, not daring to stop for a moment.

Suddenly, a strong sense of crisis came over Yun Yi. A sound of breaking air came from behind him. Yun Yi instantly jumped forward and avoided the stone shot from behind.

"Damn, he can even throw!" Yun Yi said secretly.

Yun Yi looked at the stones that were deeply embedded in the ground not far away and did not dare to be careless. He accelerated the circulation of his soul power and ran towards the outside of the Star Forest.

A series of sounds of breaking through the air were heard, and fist-sized stones shot from the powerful gorilla's hands towards Yun Yi in an instant.

Yun Yi, who was running away, couldn't help but look grim when he heard the sound coming from behind. He then changed the direction of his running several times and used the advantage of his small body to avoid the stones.

"Not only can it throw, it can even predict. Is this a thousand-year-old soul beast? No, I can't run away. The town outside the forest is too far away. I can't run away. If I continue like this, I will be exhausted to death by this beast sooner or later."

Yun Yi stopped and turned around slowly. He was not sure that he could kill the thousand-year soul beast, but he did not expect to meet this powerful gorilla in front of him today.

At this time, the powerful gorilla on the tree also jumped down and looked straight at Yun Yi. Yun Yi read human-like teasing from those small eyes.

“It’s very powerful but not fast. There’s still a chance if I don’t get hit by its attacks.” Yun Yi looked at the powerful gorilla in front of him with his hand on the Zhuge magic crossbow at his waist.

"The arm is about one meter long. If you don't count the stones, this is its attack range." Yun Yi murmured, and then Yun Yi divided his soul power into two, one for his eyes and the other for his legs.

The powerful gorilla immediately let out a low roar at Yun Yi, kicked the ground with its powerful hind legs, and pounced towards Yun Yi at an extremely fast speed.

With the infusion of soul power, the powerful gorilla that was rushing towards him slowed down a lot in Yun Yi's eyes. Seeing the gorilla's testicles exposed because of the jump, Yun Yi's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he rolled to the left in an instant. The powerful calf strength made Yun Yi bounce up instantly and raised the Zhuge magic crossbow on his waist to in front of his eyes.

"Like to use a rock? Times have changed monkey, let me teach you what real shooting is!"

If we talk about the advantages of Tang San's hidden weapon over the soul guide, it is that it does not need any soul power to assist and can also produce extremely powerful lethality. If Yun Yi has a fixed soul guide cannon in his hand, Yun Yi still has to consider whether his soul power is enough.

Crunch, crunch, crunch…

A series of mechanical explosions sounded from Yun Yi's right hand, and dark shadows shot out.

With Yun Yi's eyesight and practiced techniques, how could he lose accuracy at such a close distance?
There were a total of sixteen shadows flying out. Normally, when Yun Yi tested continuous shooting, he could only guarantee the accuracy of the first four shots. However, at such a close distance, facing the huge and powerful gorilla, Yun Yi did not need to worry about the accuracy and just pulled the trigger.

In just a moment, all the crossbow arrows penetrated into the body of the powerful gorilla.

After his right hand finished firing, Yun Yi made the next move without hesitation. He leaped back quickly and rolled directly, sending his body three meters away.

"Roar..." A shrill roar, particularly clear in the quiet forest.

When the sixteen dark shadows sank into the body of the powerful gorilla, its huge body rolled on the ground in pain, with its hands covering its lower body.

"There are four last shots, let me give you a quick death." Yun Yi murmured softly.

Then he raised the Zhuge Divine Crossbow in his hand and aimed it at the heart of the powerful gorilla.

Crunch, crunch, crunch…

Four dark shadows, carrying a strong sound of breaking through the air, instantly shot into the heart of the powerful gorilla. The gorilla, who was rolling over, suddenly stiffened his body and fell to both sides with his hands.

Specks of blue-purple light began to condense above its body, and a purple soul ring appeared above the corpse.

The soul ring appeared, and Yun Yi slowly approached. Looking at the orangutan's wide eyes, which seemed to be extremely unwilling to die, Yun Yi spat at it and said softly, "I'm just not completely sure of killing you, not that I don't have any confidence at all."

Looking at the purple soul ring in front of him, Yun Yi showed hesitation. The reason why Yun Yi chose to escape in the first world after meeting the powerful gorilla was, first, because he was not sure of killing it, and second, he was not clear about his physical strength now and did not have any specific measurement data.

"For a normal soul master, the first ring is 400, the second ring is 700, and the third ring is 1,700."

"Damn it, never mind. Let's take a gamble. I don't believe that a few hundred more years will make my body explode." Yun Yi murmured.

This is a rare opportunity. This soul ring is in line with his estimation of himself. Although it is just an estimation, he also has certain reference objects.

After eating, he was forging iron in the blacksmith shop. Even Tang San, who had the first soul ring, was far inferior to him in terms of physical strength. Yun Yi secretly estimated that when both of them used the Chaos Cloak with restraint, Yun Yi could last twice as long as Tang San or even more. However, Yun Yi found that Tang San recovered his soul and physical strength much faster than him. Obviously, this was the credit of the Xuantian Gong. If Yun Yi wanted to recover quickly, he could only eat a lot of food.

Then Yun Yi sat cross-legged and raised his left hand. The soul imprint of his body's martial soul appeared in the palm of Yun Yi's hand. Yun Yi took a deep breath and sent a call to the soul ring of the powerful gorilla.

The purple soul ring seemed to be attracted. As soon as it sensed Yun Yi's martial soul, it immediately floated towards Yun Yi's body like a young swallow returning to its nest.

The purple light instantly enveloped Yun Yi's body. Yun Yi felt a huge heat current suddenly rushing into his body. Before he could react, the heat current began to burn his body like a boiling flame.

The powerful gorilla was originally one of the best among the powerful soul beasts. Its powerful force invaded Yun Yi's body and forcibly transformed his body.

Under the powerful fluctuations of soul power, Yun Yi felt as if his body was about to explode. The intense pain made him spit out blood.

Yun Yi frowned, enduring the pain from his body, and blood began to appear on his delicate skin.
