The Martial Soul Skeleton, in Douluo Continent's Bone-Changing Susanoo

Chapter 44 Breaking Through Level 30

The Great Soul Arena, a private box.

Qin Ming told Yu Tianheng, Dugu Yan, and the others to go back to the hotel to rest first, while he and Xia Liang went into the private room together.

The two weren't very familiar with each other, and after an awkward chat about some trivial work matters, Qin Ming finally got to the point.

It turned out that he wanted to speak privately to ask Xia Liang if he was willing to join the Heaven Dou Royal Academy. If so, the academy would help him obtain the best quality third spirit ring.

Xia Liang's reply to Qin Ming was to consider it for three days and then see how things went.

three days later.

Having just finished his work in the academy kitchen, Xia Liang did not go to the Great Soul Arena for further battles.

He has achieved his goal.

He fought Dugu Yan twice and won both times.

Not only did he get involved with Dugu Yan, but he also left an indelible impression on her and unexpectedly obtained the Ruyi Baibao Pouch mentioned in the original work.

It seems that Tang San has lost the opportunity to store immortal herbs in a soul tool. How far away is it that he will lose the opportunity to store immortal herbs?

After planning what to do next, Xia Liang walked into the Wardfak Hotel.

This is where he lived for a year and a half. It is said that the hotel owner was a host at the Great Soul Arena and made his fortune through gambling at the Great Soul Arena.

Xia Liang can be said to have started his career through the Great Soul Arena. Ten days ago, his savings were at most 100,000 gold soul coins.

After ten days of soul-fighting gambling, my savings have skyrocketed from 100,000 gold soul coins to 750,000.

With money, one would naturally use it to purchase various cultivation resources.

Two days ago, Xia Liang went to Tianshui City and did a deal with the Shui family to buy ten pieces of whale glue.

At the same time, he also purchased various milk drinks with auxiliary effects from the female Soul Emperor of the Shui family, who possessed a milk-type martial soul.

This female Soul Emperor with the Milk Martial Soul is truly greedy. Seeing that Xia Liang was willing to pay 10,000 gold soul coins, she asked some healing-type Soul Masters to help restore her soul power and produced six buckets of milk overnight.

Each bucket of milk corresponds to a different soul skill effect. There are hot milk drinks that can keep you warm, cold milk drinks that can keep you cool, and milk candy drinks that can detoxify and restore you from various abnormal statuses.

These six buckets of milk drinks with different auxiliary effects are now stored in the green compartment of the three-colored ring, which is equivalent to having six food-type soul skills on your body.

I took a piece of softened whale gelatin and sat on the soft, comfortable bed.

After two hours, Xia Liang finally succeeded in refining the whale glue, and his muscles, meridians, and bones all experienced a certain degree of improvement in their strength.

He discovered that the effects of whale glue were not as powerful as described in fan fiction on Earth; taking only one or two pieces of whale glue would not have much of an effect.

This thing needs to be piled up in large quantities to cause a qualitative change.

I had previously taken two pieces of Wannian Whale Glue, which significantly improved my physical strength.

Once all ten pieces of thousand-year-old whale glue are refined, the physical qualities built up from so many high-age whale glues, coupled with excellent bone strength, should allow me to absorb a third soul ring of about five thousand years, even if I'm a higher level.

After refining whale glue, your whole body will have a fishy smell, and you will feel wet and sticky like you've been sweating, which is perfect for taking a nice hot bath.

After the hot water in the bathtub boiled, Xia Liang placed the high-grade medicinal herbs that the Shui family had given him into the bathtub in order.

This was his sixth time soaking in a high-grade medicinal bath. He was already very skilled at each step of adding the medicine, and he only needed four more times to complete a full cycle of medication.

At that time, the level 29 soul power should be able to break through the level 30 bottleneck under the absorption of the medicine.

About half an hour later.

The aromas of various herbs were finally released as the water was hot, filling the entire bathroom with a faint medicinal fragrance.

Sitting cross-legged in the bathtub, the water level immediately rose to Xia Liang's chest. If you looked closely, you would find that the skeletal structure of his body had faded, replaced by full muscle lines.

Her pale and emaciated face regained some vitality, and she no longer looked as withered as before.

While soaking in the high-grade medicinal bath, Xia Liang was also reviewing the practical combat experience he had accumulated over the past few days in the Battle Soul.

He couldn't help but recall his second battle against Dugu Yan, which was a battle between opponents of higher levels, three days ago.

At that time, Qin Ming conceded defeat on behalf of Dugu Yan in the battle of spirits. Afterwards, Dugu Yan wanted to fight again, but Qin Ming stopped her.

"Master Xia, have you ever considered resigning from your job as a chef and joining the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy as a student?"

This was the main content of Qin Ming and Xia Liang's conversation in the private room three days ago.

Xia Liang didn't understand why Qin Ming would invite him to join the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

After inquiring about the reason, he learned that Qin Ming had already taken notice of him during his sixth battle at the Great Soul Arena.

Later, Qin Ming went to the Spirit Hall to check the information and discovered that Xia, the academy chef who looked several years older than Dugu Yan, was actually only thirteen years old.

What surprised Qin Ming the most was that this Master Xia only had innate level 5 soul power. With such an ordinary talent, how could he cultivate to level 29 soul power at the age of just thirteen?

At this rate of cultivation, it would only take a few months at most to break through the level 30 bottleneck.

A thirteen-year-old Soul Master with only level five innate soul power can no longer be described as a genius, but as a monster.

Qin Ming, who came from Shrek Academy, values ​​students with monstrous potential the most. After watching Xia Liang and Dugu Yan's first battle against opponents of higher levels, he had the idea of ​​recruiting Xia Liang into the Heaven Dou Royal Academy's Heaven Dou Class 1.

After Xia Liang and Dugu Yan's second victory in a battle against opponents of higher levels, he became even more determined to do so.

To prevent Xia Liang and Dugu Yan from having a conflict due to their higher-level spirit battle, which would be detrimental to their future teamwork, Qin Ming stepped in to end the battle and ease tensions between the two.

"Master Xia, if you can join the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, I will inform the three teaching committee members of your situation and ask them to help you obtain the best quality third soul ring of the millennium."

During their conversation three days ago, Qin Ming's words resonated with Xia Liang, because joining the Heaven Dou Royal Academy would grant him access to the academy's library.

It contains a wealth of advanced knowledge about Soul Masters and Soul Beasts, as well as introductions to rare Soul Ring techniques such as Soul Ring Fusion.

Furthermore, with the three education commissioners helping to obtain the highest quality third spirit ring, the temptation for ordinary spirit masters without any backing is absolutely enormous.

Faced with Qin Ming's sincere invitation, Xia Liang replied that he would consider it for three days.

Three days have passed now. I'll be working in the college kitchen tomorrow, and I expect Qin Ming will come knocking on my door demanding the results.

As for whether or not to join the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, Xia Liang was still hesitating, but he finally figured it out in the past few days.

Why is Qin Ming so determined to get himself into the top class of the Heaven Dou level?

They must be thinking about preparing for the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Elite Tournament three years from now.

If you join the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, you will have to follow the academy's arrangements to participate in the Elite Tournament, which will waste a lot of time improving your strength.

However, according to the original novel, the first team of the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy was guaranteed a spot in the finals.

In other words, during the preliminary and qualifying stages of the elite competition, you can go to other places to improve your skills.

Come back when the finals start, lead the Heaven Dou Royal Academy team to fight Tang San and show off. Maybe we can even exchange the national treasure, the Vast Ocean Universe Cover, with Emperor Xue Ye in the name of winning the Elite Tournament championship.

Thinking about it this way, joining the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy doesn't seem so bad.

As if some kind of energy within his body had suddenly become immense, Xia Liang abruptly opened his eyes, subconsciously relaxing his mental energy. A powerful aura erupted from his body, stirring the medicinal water in the bathtub.

Breakthrough?

I'll update two more chapters at 11:59 PM and midnight. I'm still revising and writing, please bear with me.
