Future Plans
Wang Li felt a surge of excitement in his heart, but it quickly settled.
This was an extraordinary soul skill, but at his current level, he still could not fully unleash its power. The reason was simple: his soul power was too low.
He had already realized that he now possessed very strong healing abilities, but resisting abnormal states,such as resisting death itself,was another matter.
To survive with a shattered heart and a gaping wound in his chest, remaining active and combat-ready, required an immense amount of soul power to continuously maintain the "Revival" soul skill.
Then he would have to wait for his body to repair itself. With Blue Silver Grass-level vitality, recovery was still somewhat slow. If his vitality evolved to the Blue Silver Emperor level, even severe injuries could be fully healed as long as "Revival" sustained his life, and in a short time, he would completely recover.
The previous generation of Blue Silver Emperor, Tang San's mother, had such tenacious life force that even after sacrifice, she could be reborn from a seed. Wang Li's current Level 2 Blue Silver Grass still fell far short of that.
In fact, this soul skill's healing ability was only a secondary feature; its true power lay in resisting abnormal states. Wang Li could not yet fully demonstrate this, but it had already awakened his potential.
Of course, fully developing this potential would be extremely valuable in the future. Wasting it now would be a true loss.
At this moment, Wang Li's eyes shone brightly. His current strength was not high, so he remained low-profile for now. Once his strength increased, he would not believe that anyone, on earth or in heaven, could reduce him to ashes in a single blow.
He now had a trump card for survival. He wondered how long one could survive with a broken heart at the Grand Soul Master level. Of course, he did not intend to test it yet. Perhaps in the future, he could develop a soul skill that absorbed soul power, allowing him to maintain "Revival" even at a lower level.
At this moment, Golfa noticed that Wang Li had awakened. Seeing the smile on his face, he guessed that Wang Li must have gained a powerful soul skill. Curiously, he asked:
"How is it? How does the soul skill work?"
Wang Li considered briefly and replied:
"It's a very powerful healing soul skill. It can also remove some negative conditions, such as minor poisoning or slight weakness…"
He deliberately kept the description vague, presenting the healing as the core of the skill and the resistance to abnormal states as simply removing minor negative effects. Resisting death outright was too extraordinary to mention; he preferred to keep that to himself.
Golfa had no doubts and even nodded:
"That's fine. Although your second soul skill doesn't enhance your control like your first skill, having a healing skill will greatly improve your survival in future battles."
"Being able to both control and heal will make you highly sought after wherever you go. It's also an excellent development path."
Wang Li stood up and said sincerely:
"Thank you, Director, for making this possible!"
Golfa laughed heartily. He was pleased by Wang Li's gratitude and said:
"This is your own choice. Now that you have a second soul ring, what is your current soul power?"
Wang Li glanced at his status panel to confirm: Soul Power: Level 21 (95%). He said:
"Level 21 soul power. But I feel that Level 22 isn't far off. Once I return to the academy and meditate a few times in peace, I should be able to break through to Level 22."
Hearing this, Golfa's smile grew wider. He clicked his tongue in admiration and said:
"The Red Blood Ganoderma King soul ring you absorbed isn't low in value. Your gain is normal, but you still cannot be complacent. Training at the Grand Soul Master level is vastly different from the regular Soul Master stage. Many mediocre Soul Masters spend their entire lives trapped at the Grand Soul Master level."
"Once you return, continue to train diligently. With your exceptional talent, I don't want to see you stagnate at the Grand Soul Master stage."
Wang Li knew that higher realms meant more difficult training, though his progress did not rely solely on training. He replied solemnly:
"Yes, Director!"
Golfa nodded and continued:
"Once I finish processing the Red Blood Ganoderma King, we'll return to the academy. Even though it's dead, it's still excellent material. I'll hand it to Director Yang of the Foreign Affairs Department so their alchemists can turn it into medicine."
"The academy has few support-type Soul Masters. When the Foreign Affairs personnel go on missions, having some potions can be lifesaving."
Wang Li had no objections. Golfa's method of processing the Red Blood Ganoderma King was straightforward: high-temperature evaporation to remove moisture. This reduced some medicinal potency but allowed for longer preservation.
After everything was handled, Golfa and Wang Li began the journey back. Being in the core of the Soul Hunting Forest, it took them two days to return to the Liega Academy.
On the way back to Liega City, they also visited the Martial Soul Hall to update Wang Li's Soul Master certification. As a Level 21 Grand Soul Master, he received ten gold soul coins, a tenfold increase in income.
Back at the academy, after bidding farewell to the Director, Wang Li went to report to Elder Ling and ensure his safety.
Elder Ling was curious about Wang Li's second soul skill. Wang Li introduced it again:
"A very powerful healing soul skill, which also removes some negative conditions like minor poisoning or slight weakness…"
Elder Ling initially frowned but soon relaxed. For a Blue Silver Grass martial soul, combining control with support was a suitable path. He said:
"Good. Controlling and supporting, you've reached the academy's graduation standard as a Grand Soul Master. Next, you need to master your first and second soul skills, forming the combat style that suits you best. That way, in battle, you'll remain calm."
"You should also continue diligent training. Your mutated Blue Silver Grass martial soul grows fastest in the academy's forests. You can train there frequently. By the way, do you have any plans?"
Wang Li smiled at Elder Ling and said:
"Elder Ling, now that I'm a Grand Soul Master, I want to participate in more real combat at the Liega Grand Dou Arena in the future."
