Chapter 50:Helping Luo Sanpao Change His Name.
After leaving the forest, the three hired a carriage in the nearest town and slowly headed towards Tianshui City.
Inside the carriage, Shui Qing'er sat by the window, curiously observing the scenery rushing past outside, a smile on her face.
Granny Shui Jingxin's gaze fell on Yu Xiaolie, who was resting with his eyes closed, and a hint of curiosity flashed in her eyes.
"Xiao Lie, actually I've always been very interested in your martial spirit."
She spoke softly, breaking the brief silence in the carriage.
Yu Xiaolie opened his eyes and looked at Granny Shui Jingxin opposite him, waiting for her to continue.
"The name Luo Sanpao..."
Granny Shui Jingxin paused, seemingly considering her words.
"That sounds a bit unusual."
Shui Qing'er couldn't help but chime in.
"My mother-in-law means that the name doesn't sound particularly nice."
Her frankness made Granny Shui Jingxin shake her head helplessly, but she did not refute her.
Upon hearing this, Yu Xiaolie's lips curled up slightly, but he did not offer any further explanation.
As for the name, I just thought it was the same as Yu Xiaogang's martial soul, Luo Sanpao, so I've always called it that.
A thoughtful look flashed in Granny Shui Jingxin's eyes as she slowly said:
"When I observed your martial spirit fighting against the soul beast, there was a faint aura of a holy dragon emanating from it. You really shouldn't have a name like Luo Sanpao."
Her words carried a certainty, and she looked intently at Yu Xiaolie.
Upon hearing this, Yu Xiaolie's heart skipped a beat.
As expected of the top-tier martial soul, the Ice Phoenix, it was able to detect the faint aura of the Holy Dragon on Sanpao's body.
Shui Qing'er's eyes lit up, and she sat up straight excitedly, echoing:
"That's right! When it launches an attack, the momentum it exudes is definitely not something an ordinary martial soul can possess."
"I think we should rename it, how about calling it Dragon Cub?"
"Since it has the aura of a dragon, and it looks so small right now, doesn't it sound adorable?"
Upon hearing this name, Yu Xiaolie raised an eyebrow, slightly surprised.
"Dragon cub?"
Shui Qing'er nodded eagerly, her eyes shining with anticipation.
"Yes, little dragon!"
"It sounds both cute and powerful, much better than Luo Sanpao."
Grandma Shui Jingxin nodded as well.
"This name does indeed fit its essence."
Yu Xiaolie pondered for a moment, then smiled slightly and nodded.
"Dragon cub...that's fine too."
In fact, the effects of the immortal herbs absorbed during this period have gradually begun to appear, laying a solid foundation for the awakening of bloodline.
This is why the dragon cub already carries traces of the aura of a sacred dragon.
However, a martial soul still needs sufficient soul power level to support it. Before Yu Xiaolie's soul power reaches level 30, these changes are not obvious.
This is why, although the dragon cub's body swelled up to an extreme degree after consuming the Dragon Blood Earth Vein Fruit, it eventually returned to its original state.
Just as the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Martial Soul can only transform into a dragon after reaching level 30, the current dragon cubs also need to reach level 30 before they can show their true dragon form.
Without consuming the immortal herb, the dragon cub will not be able to begin its transformation until it reaches level 60.
Now, all he needs to do is continuously absorb energy of various attributes to provide the dragon cub with more controllable attribute soul power.
This was one of the reasons he decided to follow Granny Shui Jingxin to Tianshui City; the ice energy of the Tianshui Phoenix Clan was exactly what he needed.
"Xiao Lie, what are you thinking about?"
Shui Qing'er asked curiously, interrupting Yu Xiaolie's thoughts.
Yu Xiaolie snapped out of his daze and smiled slightly.
"Nothing, I was just thinking about some things related to martial spirits."
Shui Qing'er didn't seem satisfied with the answer and was about to ask further questions when Grandma Shui Jingxin changed the subject.
"Xiao Lie, I'm very curious about your experiences over the past two years."
Her eyes were full of inquiry.
"When I first met you during the sect competition, you only had level twelve soul power. Now, more than two years later, you have reached level twenty-eight. Such a cultivation speed is truly rare."
How did you do that?
In fact, Granny Shui Jingxin had noticed something. Yu Xiaolie awakened his martial soul at the age of 6 and it took him 7 years to reach level 12. In just two years, he had rapidly reached level 16. This extraordinary and earth-shattering cultivation speed made her very curious about Xiaolie.
Yu Xiaolie sensed the probing in Granny Shui Jingxin's words and knew that she was subtly inquiring about the secrets of his cultivation.
He thought for a moment and then gave his answer.
"Transformation through real combat."
Over the past two years, he has indeed experienced countless real battles, whether it was fighting against Zhu Si in the camp, carrying out missions in the Sunset Forest, or facing Dugu Bo's deadly poison and powerful soul pressure every day at the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well. All these real battle experiences are indeed one of the reasons for his rapid progress in soul power.
Of course, the most important thing is the nourishment from those rare immortal herbs and the tempering of the body by the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, but these secrets are obviously not something he can tell others casually.
Upon hearing this answer, Granny Shui Jingxin and Shui Qing'er exchanged glances, clearly not entirely satisfied with it.
But Granny Shui Jingxin was a sensible person and did not press the matter further.
As an elder of the Tianshui Phoenix Clan and the dean of Tianshui Academy, Granny Shui Jingxin could naturally see the extraordinary qualities in Yu Xiaolie.
The fact that he could absorb a thousand-year-old soul ring with his second soul ring, and that he mastered advanced fighting techniques, shows that such talent and strength are extremely rare among the younger generation.
Tianshui Academy primarily trains ice-type soul masters, focusing on control and long-range attacks. They are most vulnerable to close-quarters combat from agility-type or power-attack-type soul masters.
Yu Xiaolie happens to be an expert in this area.
The carriage continued its journey, and the scenery outside the window gradually changed to plains, with some rolling mountains still visible in the distance.
Grandma Shui Jingxin thought for a long time before making a decision.
"Xiao Lie, I have a suggestion."
Her voice broke the brief silence in the carriage, and Yu Xiaolie and Shui Qing'er both looked at Granny Shui Jingxin.
"Have you ever considered becoming a coach at Tianshui Academy?"
This suggestion made Shui Qing'er's eyes light up, and an excited look immediately appeared on her face.
"Very good!"
As soon as she spoke, she realized what she had said, and a blush immediately appeared on her face. She quickly added something.
"I mean, this way we can play with the dragon cub more."
Yu Xiaolie smiled slightly and turned his gaze to Granny Shui Jingxin.
"coach?"
"Although your soul power level is not high enough to serve as a formal teacher in the academy, you do have strengths that our Tianshui Academy students need to learn from."
She paused, then continued.
"In particular, your impressive level of close combat skills is a very valuable experience for our students."
Yu Xiaolie nodded.
With his current soul power level, he is indeed not qualified to be a formal soul master academy teacher.
But he also understood what Granny Shui Jingxin meant—he was the most suitable person to be her sparring partner, but because of his identity as a member of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan, she couldn't say it directly, so she called him "coach".
"This proposal is very attractive."
"but..."
Yu Xiaolie replied.
