Douluo Continent: My name is Yang Jian, and I achieved sainthood through my physical body

Yue Guan looked Yang Jian up and down, her eyes filled with increasing surprise.

He could clearly sense that the child's physical strength was completely different from what it had been three months ago.

That restrained yet abundant vitality is even stronger than that of some Soul Kings.

"How did you train to have such a physique?" Yue Guan couldn't help but ask.

Although he would come to guide Yang Jian every few days during these three months, and each time he could find that the other party's physical fitness had improved, the speed of improvement was really beyond the norm.

Yang Jian scratched his head, revealing an innocent expression: "I'm not quite sure either. Ever since I awakened my martial soul, my physical strength has been automatically increasing every day."

"Uncle Yue, is there a problem?"

Yue Guan remained silent for a moment, and could only attribute this to the special nature of the Three-Pointed Double-Edged Sword Martial Soul.

After all, it was a top-tier weapon spirit that Bibi Dong herself praised as "no weaker than the Clear Sky Hammer".

"No problem." Yue Guan shook his head, then changed the subject, "Pack up and get ready to leave."

Yang Jian was taken aback: "Where to?"

“Hunting for a spirit ring.” Yue Guan looked into his eyes. “Your physical strength is already sufficient.”

Yang Jian's heart skipped a beat; the day he had been waiting for for three months was finally coming.

But he didn't nod immediately. Instead, he looked up and stared intently at Yue Guan.

"Uncle Yue, can I choose my own spirit rings?"

Yue Guan raised an eyebrow slightly: "What kind of spirit ring do you want?"

Yang Jian took a deep breath and gave the answer he had already decided on.

"Titan Ape"

"Titan Ape?"

Upon hearing this, Yue Guan raised an eyebrow slightly. Before she could say anything, Yang Jian added, "Actually, the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear is better."

"I've been researching for three months, and these two types of soul beasts are best suited for the Three-Pointed Double-Edged Blade, which should bring some decent soul skills."

Yue Guan looked at him, a hint of admiration flashing in her eyes.

“Those three months in the library were worthwhile.” Yue Guan nodded. “Both of these soul beasts are indeed top-tier choices in terms of power and attack direction.”

"but……"

He changed the subject, "These things aren't in the ordinary Soul Hunting Forest; you have to go to the Star Dou Great Forest. The Titan Giant Ape and the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear basically live in the core area of ​​that region."

Yang Jian had expected this and was not surprised.

"Then let's go to the Star Dou Great Forest."

Yue Guan glanced at him, about to say something, when suddenly a series of hurried footsteps came from outside the courtyard.

"Elder Ju!"

Hu Liena ran into the yard, panting. Her chestnut hair was a little messy from the wind, and her delicate face was flushed with excitement.

"Why are you here?" Yue Guan asked.

"I was just passing by and heard you were going to the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt for spirit rings." Hu Liena's gaze fell on Yang Jian, her eyes full of curiosity. "Junior Brother is going to get his first spirit ring? I want to go and see too!"

Yue Guan frowned: "Hunting for spirit rings is no child's play, especially in a place like the Star Dou Great Forest..."

"I won't cause any trouble!" Hu Liena quickly promised, clasping her hands together and looking at Yue Guan expectantly. "Elder Ju, I promise to follow obediently behind and never run away."

After a moment of contemplation, Yue Guan finally nodded.

"alright."

"Thank you, Elder Ju!"

Hu Liena cheered and ran to Yang Jian's side, looking him up and down with curiosity: "Junior Brother, what kind of spirit beast do you want for your first spirit ring?"

“Titan Ape,” Yang Jian answered truthfully.

Hu Liena's smile froze on her face.

"What did you say?"

“Titan Ape,” Yang Jian repeated, “or Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear will also work.”

Hu Liena opened her mouth, but for a moment she didn't know what to say.

She looked at Yue Guan, hoping that this titled Douluo could tell her that Yang Jian was joking.

Yue Guan did not deny it, but simply said, "Let's go."

Chapter 15 is too young, don't use it.

Wuhun City is not far from the Star Dou Great Forest.

With Yue Guan's flying speed as a titled Douluo, the three of them arrived at the outer edge of the Star Dou Great Forest in less than half an hour.

From the air, the boundless forest stretches to the horizon, lush and verdant, like a green ocean.

Deep in the forest, the low roars of beasts could be heard from time to time, rising and falling, revealing a primal wildness.

Yue Guan landed with the two on an open space, releasing his soul power to drive away all the low-level soul beasts within a hundred meters.

"Stay close to me and don't get lost," Yue Guan instructed. "The Star Dou Great Forest is different from the Soul Hunting Forest outside. The further you go in, the higher the cultivation level of the soul beasts."

"Although I can protect you, there are always unexpected events."

Hu Liena put away her relaxed demeanor from the journey and nodded earnestly.

Yang Jian silently observed the surrounding environment.

The three began to venture deeper into the forest.

Yue Guan walked at the front, his soul power perception fully activated, and nothing within a radius of several miles could escape his perception.

Hu Liena followed in the middle, her eyes occasionally scanning the surrounding bushes and tree canopies, searching for traces of the soul beasts.

Yang Jian walked at the back, his steps steady and unhurried.

After searching for about two hours, Yue Guan suddenly stopped.

Hu Liena followed his gaze, and after a moment she lowered her voice and called out, "Over there!"

She pointed to a thicket of bushes to her right.

The three approached quietly and, through the gaps in the bushes, saw a two-meter-long earthworm gnawing on a low-lying plant.

Its scales gleamed golden in the sunlight filtering through the leaves, and its limbs were short and thick, yet it appeared quite powerful.

"The Golden Earth Dragon, an earth-attribute soul beast, is known for its strength and defense." Hu Liena turned to Yang Jian, her tone tentative, "Junior Brother, what do you think of this one?"

"Although it can't compare to the Titan Ape, its lifespan of around four hundred years is just within the limit of the first spirit ring, and it's very suitable for weapon spirits."

Yang Jian glanced at the golden earth dragon and shook his head expressionlessly.

"No."

Hu Liena was taken aback: "Why?"

"The age limit is too short," Yang Jian said calmly.

Hu Liena's eyes widened, wondering if she had misheard.

"Four hundred years is too low?" Her voice rose several decibels. "That's already the standard limit for the first spirit ring. Do you know what four hundred and twenty-three years means? That's experience gained by countless spirit masters at the cost of their lives..."

Yang Jian was somewhat frustrated. This was yet another child whose theory had been plagiarized by Yu Xiaogang and who had been misled.

That's right, normally 423 years is indeed the limit for the first spirit ring, but there are also abnormal phenomena.

For example, people who are naturally physically strong, or those who have been exercising since the age of six, or those who have taken a natural treasure like whale gelatin.

If one only absorbs a first spirit ring that is around 423 years old, their future achievements will definitely be reduced.

Speaking of whale glue.

Should I tell the Spirit Hall about the function of this thing?

"Nana".

Just then, Yue Guan suddenly spoke, interrupting Hu Liena.

He smiled knowingly and waved to her.

"Don't be impatient."

"If Yang Jian were to absorb a mere four-hundred-year-old soul ring, it would be detrimental to him."

Hu Liena was completely stunned.

She didn't understand why Elder Ju would say such a thing.

The limit of the first spirit ring is 423 years. This is an ironclad rule in the spirit master world for thousands of years, and no one has ever broken it.

Judging from Elder Ju's words, Yang Jianjian's absorbed soul rings were likely to be much older than this?

She wanted to ask more, but Yue Guan had already turned around and continued walking forward.

"Let's go, keep searching. There aren't any suitable spirit rings for him here."

……

On the first day, nothing was gained.

Although there are many spirit beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest, the Titan Giant Ape and the Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear are not ordinary spirit beasts that can be seen everywhere.

They searched the area where the outer and middle perimeters met for a whole day, but didn't even see a trace of either of these soul beasts.

As night fell, Yue Guan stopped by a stream.

"We'll camp here tonight."

He looked around and, after confirming there was no danger, sat cross-legged by the campfire, closed his eyes to rest, and kept his soul power perception covering the area around the camp.

Hu Liena was exhausted and plopped down on a rock by the stream, rubbing her aching legs.

She glanced at Yang Jian secretly and was surprised to find that the six-year-old child looked perfectly normal and didn't even seem to be breathing.

"How come this kid has better stamina than me..."
