"Grand Elder, my Soul Power has reached Rank 60!"
Yu Xiaogang's words left the Grand Elder stunned.
Rank 60, Rank 60... Rank 60 already?!
"Xiaogang, you've reached Rank 60?"
The Grand Elder asked with a look of pleasant surprise.
"Yes, I just reached it today. The reward for the Gods Trial has already been delivered to my hands."
Yu Xiaogang took out the god-bestowed spirit ring from his storage soul tool and handed it to the Grand Elder.
The Grand Elder took the god-bestowed spirit ring, examined it carefully, and then cautiously returned it to Yu Xiaogang's hands.
"Hahahaha, good, very good! To be able to meet the goal within the allotted time, it seems that even that Angel God underestimated you, Xiaogang."
"Doesn't this mean that your talent, Xiaogang, is something even the gods would underestimate?"
The Grand Elder said with an excited expression.
According to the Grand Elder's way of thinking, the content of a god's trial must certainly be extremely difficult for a Spirit Master.
Take their own Sect Master for example; for the trial the God of Destruction set for him, heaven knows how long it would take him to complete it.
Although the personalities of different gods might differ, the thoughts and intentions of powerful beings when setting trials for talented juniors are generally the same.
If it were the Grand Elder himself, if he were willing to mentor a junior, he would certainly set some trials as well.
And the content of such trials is generally based on the specific circumstances of that junior, setting goals that are at the limits of the other party as the final standard.
And the difficulty standards of gods might be even higher.
Yet even so, Yu Xiaogang still completed it ahead of schedule.
Doesn't this sufficiently prove that Yu Xiaogang's talent is beyond the Angel God's estimations?
"Very good. With the Gods Trial complete, there is no need to go searching for a suitable Spirit Beast for your sixth spirit ring."
"Xiaogang, tell me honestly, do you have the confidence to raise your sixth spirit ring to the 100,000-year level?"
The Grand Elder asked with a serious expression.
"I am not entirely sure what the situation is like when absorbing a 100,000-year spirit ring, but with my current level, there shouldn't be any problems."
Yu Xiaogang's face was full of confidence.
For a Spirit Master, there are only two keys to absorbing a spirit ring: one is physical fitness, and the other is mental strength.
He did not need to worry about the first; his fifth spirit ring was already a 70,000-year spirit ring. During his sprint to Rank 60, he had consumed a whole basketful of good things.
Coupled with his diligent training, his physical fitness was likely superior to many Spirit Douluo.
And as for mental strength, it went without saying; among the Sect, the only one who could compare to him was his father.
If a bunch of Titled Douluo couldn't compare to him, and they were all able to absorb 80,000 to 90,000-year spirit rings, could he possibly be weaker than them?
Therefore, after weighing all factors, Yu Xiaogang truly did not think there would be any mishaps in obtaining a 100,000-year sixth spirit ring.
"Confidence is good, having confidence is good indeed."
"However, if possible, Xiaogang, I still suggest you wait a while. I will write a letter to the Sect Master in a moment. It won't be too late to absorb the spirit ring once the Sect Master arrives."
"How about it?"
The Grand Elder proposed.
For such a major event, he could only feel at ease if Yu Yuanzhen, the Sect Master, was there to preside over it.
Besides, Yu Yuanzhen was Yu Xiaogang's father. The Grand Elder felt that their Sect Master would absolutely not want to miss such a major life event as his own son obtaining his first 100,000-year spirit ring.
"I have no problem with that. I was also planning to take some time to properly adjust my state. I've been busy rushing my Rank for the past two years, and my nerves have been tight. I should take a good rest before absorbing the spirit ring."
"Very good, then I will write the letter to the Sect Master now!"
The Grand Elder patted Yu Xiaogang on the shoulder and walked back to his study in high spirits.
And so, for the next period of time, Yu Xiaogang began to spend his days leisurely wandering around Spirit City.
Today he would go to a snack shop to eat something good, tomorrow he would go to the Spirit Fighting Arena to watch some Spirit Fighting, and the day after he would go to an antique shop to hunt for treasures.
In short, this period could be considered the most relaxing time for Yu Xiaogang in all these years.
During this time, Yu Xiaogang even tried to ask Bibi Dong to relax with him, but the result was a speechless eye-roll from Bibi Dong.
"You guy have already reached Rank 60, and there is still a god-bestowed spirit ring afterwards, and then other contents of the Gods Trial."
"How do you have the nerve to come and ask me to go relax with you?"
After saying this, Bibi Dong seemed to have a sudden realization.
"So, do you think that my Rank has almost caught up to yours in the past two years, and you want to numb me by relaxing so that I won't be able to catch up to you?"
Having imagined a series of "evil plans" by Yu Xiaogang, the look in Bibi Dong's eyes when she looked at him again practically had "don't think you can influence me" written all over it.
Hearing Bibi Dong's words, Yu Xiaogang, who really hadn't thought that much, opened his mouth wide and only came back to his senses after Bibi Dong went back to Cultivate.
"Damn! So in your heart, I'm this kind of person?"
Yu Xiaogang, who had always felt that he should have a positive image in the hearts of others, indignantly took out the snacks that Bibi Dong liked from his storage soul tool and ate them all.
Afterwards, Yu Xiaogang began to wander around Spirit City again, and during this time, he even dug up some interesting gadgets from the Treasure Market in Spirit City.
Among them, what interested Yu Xiaogang the most were the things transported from coastal areas.
For example, the illustrated guides of Sea Spirit Beasts.
To be honest, Yu Xiaogang's first impression was that Sea Spirit Beasts should all be Water Attribute Spirit Beasts.
As a result, upon seeing those Sea Spirit Beast guides, Yu Xiaogang's horizons were greatly broadened.
Although there were indeed many Water Attribute Spirit Beasts among the Sea Spirit Beasts, there was no lack of attributes that were contrary to the Water Attribute.
Like Fire Attribute, such Spirit Beasts were also quite numerous in the ocean.
And what attracted Yu Xiaogang's attention the most was a kind of Spirit Beast called the Sea Flame Beast.
It was a Sea Spirit Beast with an upper body like a fox, but with a lower body shaped like a fish tail.
Of course, that was not the point; the point was that this Spirit Beast called the Sea Flame Beast could absorb seawater and then ignite a layer of light blue flames around its body.
It was a flame that could truly burn in water, and it had an extremely high temperature.
To be honest, the first time he saw the picture of the Sea Flame Beast, Yu Xiaogang thought it was something someone had imagined.
It turned out to be a real, existing Spirit Beast.
And the existence of the Sea Flame Beast made Yu Xiaogang start looking for other Sea Spirit Beasts that lived in the sea like the Sea Flame Beast but possessed other attributes.
And believe it or not, he really found them.
Poison Attribute Poison Seaweed, Wood Attribute Sea Vine, Dark Attribute Devouring Beast, Wind Attribute Double-Winged Flying Fish...
And naturally, there were also Light Attribute Sea Spirit Beasts, which surprised Yu Xiaogang even more.
Because the Light Attribute Sea Spirit Beast was a Spirit Beast named the Deep Sea Phantom Light Dragon.
