Chương 79: Just a week left
Another few months passed by and it was just a week before the start of the Continental Elite Spirit Academy Tournament.
In these few months, Xu Jingguo and the two elders came home two weeks earlier with their ninth spirit rings
But, they were filled with injuries when they came back, with the two elders having black bruises all over their bodies.
Yet, what mattered the most was that they all came back home alive.
The two elders got a spirit ring around 70,000-85,000 years which provided them with great abilities.
And Xu Jingguo on the other hand got the spirit ring he wanted the most, the hundred-thousand-year spirit ring of the Titan Giant Ape.
And even more than that, he got lucky in the spirit bone lottery as well, what actually popped out of the ape is the most valuable part of the ape, the torso spirit bone.
This torso spirit bone is complete and does not have a single crack making it have the fullest power of a hundred-thousand-year spirit bone.
With these matching spirit ring and spirit bone, and the spirit skills it gave Xu Jinguo, it can be said that it will only be a matter of time before he steps into Douolu Continent's top level.
Yet, not long after they returned, massive changes happened in Star Dou Great Forest such as ten-thousand-year spirit beasts appearing in the outer areas of the forest.
At first, people thought that it was just bad luck that some people encountered a ten-thousand-year spirit beast in the outskirts of the forest.
Yet, as time passed by more and more spirit masters hunting teams met strong spirit beasts on the outskirts of the forest.
And while the older spirit beasts commonly wondered the outer area of the forest, fewer young spirit beasts appeared in the outer area.
Making spirit masters who need yellow and purple spirit rings really desperate as not only did young spirit beasts become scarce, but they also have to avoid older spirit beasts.
Now, no spirit beast hunting team existed with no power to repel a ten-thousand-year spirit beast, if there were no such power then the clients will simply not come to them.
Just that one change alone caused countless civilian spirit masters to suffer due to the inability to get proper spirit rings for their rank.
This caused many civilians spirit masters to join different forces to get proper spirit rings, which caused Xu Shuang's sect to recruit many spirit masters that seeks backing.
At this time Xu Shuang's sect has already been revealed to the world, though on the surface it appeared as a huge business that sells medicine, send packages and letters, and being bodyguards.
Of course, she didn't recruit just anybody, all those she recruited have martial spirits that can work well in synergy with each other.
Not only that, all the members she recruited are those who are young and promising with Innate Spirit power of at least 5.
Anything below the Innate Spirit Power of 5 will take too long to form proper combat power in a few years with their slow cultivation.
And she implemented a strict training plan in training the newly recruited members of the sect.
She had them live in squads of seven that lives in the same dormitory, and these seven members have martial spirits that complement each other.
And have them train together most of the time to enhance their tacit understanding of each other.
So from the moment they join, they will be assigned to compatible groups that will grow with them. And Xu Shuang's sure that with their training in military-style, they will be able to fight levels above their own.
In just a few year's time, she'll have a strong force under her banner, although the force is quite small, it's still among the better ones among mid-sized sects.
In the months that have passed, Xu Shuang has reached level 56 Spirit King making her near to having to get her 6th spirit ring.
And Ye Lingling is already level 48 just two more levels till she reaches level 50 and becomes a spirit king.
Currently, the two of them are standing in front of the gates of Heaven Dou City, looking at the towering city gates Xu Shuang spoke with a hint of remembrance.
"After 6 months, we're finally back at Hevean Dou City, where do you want to go first, Lingling?"
"I want to go take a look at home first since it's been six months that I'm gone."
Hearing her answer, Xu Shuang nodded and took her arm, and started to walk towards the Nine Hearts Flowering Apple Clan land.
Once they reached the area, the guard at the gate was surprised when he saw Ye Lingling and Xu Shuang.
When they got close, the guard immediately approached, "Young Miss, is that really you?" He spoke like he's not believing that Ye Lingling was here in front of him.
"Of course, it's me, why are you looking at me like that? Did something happen while I was gone?" Ye Lingling asked while summoning her martial spirit to prove her identity.
After all, appearance can be faked by special spirit skills, but there are hardly any spirit skills that can copy other martial spirits, and even if there is one, it had some restrictions on how it can be done.
One such spirit ability is Oscar's 6th spirit ability, Clone Mirror Large Sausage, but it had the restriction that the user needed a drop of the blood of the person whose martial spirit he wants to copy.
Xu Shuang once thought of many synergies with these abilities once she read the light novel like Oscar can do a martial spirit fusion by himself.
With the mirror skull bone that can create clones, he eats a sausage that will give him the Evil Eyes White Tiger martial spirit and the clone will eat a sausage that will give it the Hell Civet martial spirit.
Then he can make a Hell White Tiger by himself, isn't that really awesome?
Jokes aside, when the guard saw the martial spirit, although he wondered why it was white, it is indeed the Nine Heart Flowering Apple of the main lineage.
"It's just that... I don't know how to say it, you better see the matriarch herself to get a clearer knowledge about it." The guard said pointing into the inner area of the manor.
Xu Shuang and Ye Lingling nodded and walked to the inner areas of the mansion, yet what was weird is that whenever they came across other people, they all looked at Ye Lingling in surprise.
"It's really weird, Lingling. All the people that we came across are looking at you with weird eyes." Xu Shuang said angrily recalling the eyes of those people, she wished she could just gauge out those eyes.
"It's okay, it seems that something weird happened in the clan, let's get some more details from Mother first before we came to any conclusion." Ye Lingling comforted and saw that they already arrive in the inner area of the manor.
Navigating through the hallways of the house, they arrived at the indoor garden where Ye Xiuying usually stays in the afternoon drinking tea.
There they saw Ye Xiuying drinking tea, but the atmosphere of the garden is not right, it feels a bit gloomy if you say so.
The woman heard their footsteps and stood up in an agitated manner and shouted furiously.
"Didn't I already tell you?! No one's allowed into the garden anymore without my permission!"
She was about to scold some more but she was stunned when she turned around and saw Xu Shuang and Ye Lingling standing there also stunned at her shout.
