Fortunately, this wasn't the first time the students had entered the Soul Beast Forest to hunt for Soul Rings. Their teamwork was excellent, and their Soul Tools and pre-prepared medicines were quite effective. So, when the roars of beasts echoed through the jungle, all seven students and the large white dog had successfully returned to their carefully selected and prepared overnight camp.
The Flameburst Tiger remained unconscious. To avoid any unforeseen complications, Dai Mubai ended the tiger's life in a sealed hut the moment they returned to camp.
A magnificent purple Soul Ring appeared above the Flameburst Tiger's corpse. With two hours remaining before the Soul Ring naturally dissipated, Dai Mubai first ate a simple plate of boiled frozen dumplings, then immediately entered meditation. The afternoon's activities seemed harmless, but they had consumed a considerable amount of energy. Dai Mubai needed to ensure he was in peak condition when absorbing the Soul Ring. After all, the Flameburst Tiger's Soul Ring was, strictly speaking, somewhat beyond the absorption limit of a fourth Soul Ring.
When Dai Mubai had finished adjusting himself, there were still about ten minutes left before the spirit rings naturally dissipated, but only Oschin remained in the foam metal hut. The other students had already taken turns showering and washing up in the bathroom and returned to their beds to rest. In fact, Oschin had also finished washing up, but he had been assigned to the first night watch, so he was still in the living room of the foam metal hut, watching the images fed back by the spirit tool.
Of course, Oschin wasn't actually lonely, because there was also a large white dog in the living room who had just finished showering.
Lazily giving Dai Mubai a thumbs-up, Oschin once again lay back down in the soft, fluffy, and warm fur of Cowen.
Slightly speechless as he stared at the completely unnerved Oschin, Dai Mubai felt a pang of despair. "I'm absorbing a spirit ring beyond my limits, for goodness' sake! Can't you fake classmates at least show some tension?"
But his inner rant couldn't stop Dai Mubai's actions. No one cheering him on, so be it. He skillfully sat cross-legged in front of the blood-soaked corpse of the Flameburst Tiger, used his spirit power to connect with the spirit ring produced by the Flameburst Tiger, and the absorption process officially began.
Watching the magnificent purple spirit ring float above Dai Mubai's head under the pull of spirit power, gradually enlarging until it encircled him like a hoop, Dai Mubai's body trembled under the impact of the deep purple spirit power. Oschin finally abandoned his previous lazy posture on Cowen and stood up, muttering,
"Hmm, hopefully that Flameburst Tiger won't suffer much in its death, and since it had a big meal before it died, it'll have less resentment." However,
judging from Dai Mubai's constantly changing expression, clearly revealing pain, the Flameburst Tiger's soul obviously didn't want to do as Oschin wished. There was nothing that could be done; absorbing a spirit ring depended solely on one's own willpower, and no one else could help.
The jungle was mostly quiet at night, so keeping watch could sometimes be a little boring. At least in Oschin's memory, the carefully chosen campsite had never been attacked by nocturnal spirit beasts.
Even so, Oschin didn't consider slacking off during his night watch. To avoid succumbing to sleepiness, he forced himself to stay active in the living room. He kept an eye on the soul-guided display screen on the wall while also monitoring Dai Mubai's situation.
It had to be said that absorbing a soul ring beyond its limits was indeed extremely dangerous. Judging from Dai Mubai's physical reaction, the time required to absorb this soul ring clearly exceeded the normal absorption time.
Anyway, by the time Oschin's night watch ended, Dai Mubai had only just passed the most dangerous soul power impact phase of absorbing the soul ring; the next stage of soul power absorption was still unknown how long it would take. After
waking the second student on night watch, Oschin didn't rush back to his bedroom. Instead, he took out bread dough that had been fermenting at a low temperature from the soul-guided refrigerator and put it in the oven, setting the baking time.
Dai Mubai's soul ring absorption shouldn't have any major problems. To celebrate the birth of the first Soul Master among the students, tomorrow morning's breakfast would be freshly baked buttered toast with veal steak.
As for the Fiery Tiger, being a soul beast with four thousand years of cultivation, its meat wasn't easy to prepare. At least, Oschin couldn't turn it into a nutritious and delicious meal using simple tools in the Soul Beast Forest. The Fiery Tiger's meat and skin wouldn't be wasted, but the processing would wait until the students returned to Heaven Dou City.
The next morning, when Oschin woke up to the aroma of buttered toast, Dai Mubai in the living room had already completed the soul ring absorption process and was diligently monitoring the feedback screen of the soul tool to complete his duty.
"Good morning, Boss Dai. How's the fourth spirit ring going?"
"Fantastic! Absorbing a spirit ring beyond one's level is dangerous and painful, but as long as your body can handle it, the rewards are amazing.
My spirit power level is still 41, but I can feel it's already at its limit. With a few more days of meditation, I can break through to 42."
"That's not bad. But it seems this Flameburst Tiger's age is only slightly over 4,000 years, otherwise your spirit power level would be higher. After all, Xiao San's spirit power level reached 33 after absorbing the Human-Faced Demon Spider's spirit ring." "
Tsk, I can't compare to that freak, Xiao San. If this Flameburst Tiger's age were much higher, I might not have dared to absorb its spirit ring.
However, this spirit ring does provide a decent spirit skill—White Tiger Meteor Shower. It's a mid-range area-of-effect spirit skill. I'll show it to you guys later; I think its attack power is quite considerable."
"A meteor shower-type soul skill? You can try to see if you can control the direction of movement of each soul power meteor. If you can really do that, I think the power of this soul skill can be brought out more fully."
"Good idea, I'll give it a try. Your brain is as sharp as ever. The other ways of using the White Tiger Blazing Light Wave that you told me about before were great."
