Douluo Continent: The Holy Evil Emperor.

Chapter 177 The Gradually Transforming Master and Disciple

"It's been three days already, why hasn't he come out yet?" Chen Zifeng glanced at the golden shield enveloping Ye Qing's residence and shook his head helplessly.

Normally, how the inner court disciples cultivate is their own business. Except when they need to do inspection team tasks, they are not forced to be summoned. Otherwise, the students are free to arrange their own cultivation.

But Ye Qing is not in this category. As a member of the regular team, Ye Qing has to undergo training.

The day after Ye Qing started arranging the performance, Chen Zifeng came to find him. The team was having trouble getting enough people for training again. He only stopped bothering Ye Qing because he seemed to be in seclusion. Instead, he came to see him every day.

Just as Chen Zifeng was about to leave, a powerful aura suddenly erupted from Ye Qing's room.

"Level 60? He broke through?" Chen Zifeng turned around abruptly, his face full of surprise as he looked towards Ye Qing's room. "I was wondering why this kid wasn't going out or participating in training. Turns out he was about to break through!"

I understand!

After all, this is a breakthrough from a bottleneck stage. Breaking through from level 59 to level 60 means that Ye Qing can add another soul ring and become a Soul Emperor.

This also means that their team has gained another Soul Emperor, and it is Ye Qing, a super genius who can absorb a 100,000-year Soul Ring and whose combat power is comparable to that of a Soul Saint!

"He could already defeat Senior Sister Zhang and Senior Sister Han. If he absorbs another 100,000-year soul ring, wouldn't he be able to beat up a Soul Douluo?" Chen Zifeng smiled bitterly. Ye Qing was younger than him, but their cultivation and combat power were worlds apart.

This is so discouraging.

But then Chen Zifeng realized something was wrong.

"Something seems off about this atmosphere?" Sensing the extremely oppressive atmosphere in Ye Qing's room, Chen Zifeng frowned, and then immediately ran off to call for help. He was just a gofer; this kind of thing had to be left to professionals.

Before long, Yan Shaozhe was shaken over by Chen Zifeng.

Ye Qing's affairs are considered extremely important at Shrek Academy, let alone matters related to cultivation.

"Dean Yan, what is Junior Brother Ye doing?" Chen Zifeng asked in confusion. He could only sense that the aura in Ye Qing's room seemed to be gradually increasing, but his own soul power fluctuations did not change.

This feeling is just so incredibly strange.

Yan Shaozhe didn't speak, but his expression was very solemn, even showing a hint of barely perceptible fear.

"This feeling... Soul Ring condensation?" Yan Shaozhe was almost scared out of his wits. His aura remained unchanged, but a gradually increasing aura was emanating from him. Wasn't this the situation that only occurred when a 100,000-year-old transformed soul beast condensed its soul ring?

But Yan Shaozhe quickly realized what was going on.

Ye Qing is a genuine human being. His parents were even Yan Shaozhe's students back then, and Yan Shaozhe even came to offer his blessings the year he was born.

If Ye Qing were a 100,000-year-old transformed soul beast, Mu En would have discovered it long ago and wouldn't have waited until now to expose it. Moreover, his previous soul rings were all obtained through hunting, so there is far too much evidence to prove that Ye Qing is human.

Regardless, Yan Shaozhe decided to deal with Chen Zifeng first.

"It's alright, you can go back now. I'll take care of things here." Yan Shaozhe waved his hand, letting Chen Zifeng leave, while he stood still, then looked at the golden tree and bowed slightly.

"Teacher, we need you to come and take a look at my junior brother's situation."

As soon as Yan Shaozhe finished speaking, Mu En walked out of the space with his cane and looked up slightly at Ye Qing's small building in front of him.

His first thought, like Yan Shaozhe's, was that Ye Qing was a transformed soul beast, but he quickly dismissed this idea and instead recalled another extremely secret history.

"Shao Zhe, do you still remember the Divine Examination?" Mu En said in a hoarse voice.

"Of course." Yan Shaozhe nodded. "Ancient books record that a divine position can only be obtained through inheritance, and the process of inheriting a divine position is called the divine test. The ancestors of the Seven Monsters all became gods in this way."

"Divine Exam, Divine Exam..." Yan Shaozhe's eyes suddenly lit up, and then he looked at Ye Qing's dormitory with a face full of fervor. "Teacher, do you mean... Junior Brother has obtained the Divine Exam and is now absorbing the divinely bestowed soul ring?"

With Mu En's guidance, Yan Shaozhe quickly came up with something through the divine test.

That is a divinely bestowed soul ring.

According to records, the only way to obtain a soul ring besides hunting soul beasts or transforming into a soul beast is through divine bestowal.

Since Ye Qing's soul ring was not obtained through hunting, and he himself is not a transformed soul beast, the only remaining answer is that it was a divinely bestowed soul ring.

Under normal circumstances, even if Mu En and Yan Shaozhe had the wildest imaginations, they wouldn't be able to come up with the idea of ​​a divinely bestowed soul ring in a short time. However, Ye Qing had recently visited a treasure land called "Qiankun Wenqing Valley" and obtained two immortal herbs from it.

According to Ye Qing's description, there is even a manipulator in Qiankun Wenqing Valley.

In this way, wouldn't it prove that Qiankun Wenqing Valley is most likely the place where gods pass on their inheritance, and that Ye Qing has gained the favor of the gods?

After all, Ye Qing is the most outstanding genius in Shrek Academy's history of ten thousand years. Mu En and Yan Shaozhe were not surprised at all that he could pass the Divine Test!

"That's right. According to my guess, what Ye Qing is doing now is absorbing the divinely bestowed soul ring." Mu En looked at the room where Ye Qing was shrouded in a shield with a complicated expression. Then he waved his hand and covered up the pressure emanating from Ye Qing's room.

Moon's feelings were indeed very complicated.

Ye Qing, as his disciple, had actually kept such an important matter from him. He was completely unaware of the major event of Ye Qing obtaining the Divine Trial. It was only through deduction that he learned the answer after Ye Qing absorbed the divinely bestowed soul ring.

But when he thought about how the eight-petaled fairy orchid that Ye Qing had given him had been divided up by the elders of the Sea God Pavilion without even his knowledge, Mu En's expression became somewhat gloomy.

Yes, several days have passed since the feast was divided up, and Xuanzi has already eaten the eight-petaled fairy orchid. Ye Qing doesn't even know about it yet.

Ye Feng originally intended to say something, but after obtaining the ninth-grade purple fungus, he was so overjoyed that he completely forgot.

In this case, it might not be a bad thing if Ye Qing didn't say it.

Moon is numb.

When did the gap between our own geniuses and our own senior management become so large?

Seeing the constantly changing expression on Mu En's face, Yan Shaozhe had the same thought as him. The master and apprentice exchanged a glance and sighed at the same time.

"No matter what, don't ask about this. If he wants to talk, he can; if he doesn't, then forget it." Moon waved his hand and turned to leave.
