This starlight grass soul ring hadn't even reached the age limit called the second soul ring, and it was absorbed very quickly.
Xu Mingxi opened his eyes, and the yellow second soul ring above the Star Crown Martial Soul lit up.
A brilliant golden light shot out from the star crown and directly penetrated the big tree in the distance.
"Mingxi, is your spirit ring a powerful ray of invading starlight?"
The Great Elder came over with a sense of worry. This was also his first spirit skill.
"Well, my second soul skill, Star Gathering, allows me to gather starlight and shoot it out like I did just now.
As my cultivation level increases, the speed, intensity and quantity of star gathering will increase.
And most importantly, it seems to strengthen my connection with starlight."
"Good name, Star Gathering."
The goal of the few people who came to the Star Dou Great Forest had been successfully achieved.
Of course, the two children were not left to walk alone, so the two elders each carried one in their hands, and within a few days, they returned to the Star Crown Sect.
The Great Elder also brought the Star Tiger with him, so the sect would not be short of food.
Perhaps one of the disciples would need it in the future, or worse, I could kill it and eat its flesh.
"Master, this is what happened."
"Well, as I expected. The Starlight Grass can indeed acquire the ability to condense starlight.
What surprised me was that the grass was also equipped with the starlight ray soul skill.
Its current strength has surpassed even the second soul skill of an ordinary soul expert. In the future, as Mingxi's strength increases, the power of this ray will surely increase as well."
The master was listening to the grand elder's report in the hall, and even he had to sigh at Xu Mingxi's good fortune.
The soul skills Mingxi had acquired further proved the truth of the path once envisioned by the Star Ancestors.
Perhaps, this was the correct way to practice the Star Crown Martial Soul, but most people's sensitivity to stars was too poor, and it was rare to find someone who could absorb the Star Summoning Soul Skill.
"Great Elder, you must protect your grandson well. He is the future of our Star Crown Sect."
"Do I need to tell you that?"
The two old men, who were over 150 years old in total, looked at each other and laughed.
Xu Mingxi's existence made them very happy.
But Xu Mingxi himself wasn't so happy.
"Mr. Teng, can you drop me off now?"
"Wait a moment, let me take a closer look.
Something's not right, kiddo. Could it be that you really have a relationship with the stars?"
After returning to the sect and meeting his parents, Xu Mingxi wanted to continue practicing under the star tree.
Who knew that the moment he started activating his soul power, he was hanged by Old Teng.
"Mr. Teng, I really don't know what you're talking about.
I only went to absorb the second soul ring."
Mr. Teng didn't believe him and took Xu Mingxi around, but he didn't see any clues.
"You're so weird, kid. Your sensitivity to the stars is almost as good as when I was a ten thousand year old soul creature.
You should know that I'm a Star Seeking Vine born from bathing in the stars. How could a human like you do that?"
Old Vine was puzzled. After putting Xu Mingxi down, he shrank back into the tree and became autistic.
The dizzy Xu Mingxi fell to the ground. He couldn't stand up straight and collapsed on the ground.
Damn it, you old bastard, if you keep treating me like this, I'll use you as a spirit ring.
Xu Mingxi didn't get up at all.
Keep practicing, sooner or later you'll be able to use Old Deng as a whip.
The days of practicing in the mountains were always boring. In the blink of an eye, Xu Mingxi was twelve years old and his strength had reached the level of a Soul Master.
Twelve-year-old Xu Mingxi looked at himself in the mirror. He was about 1.6 meters tall, with simple short golden hair, a handsome face, and yellow hair.
Just half a year ago, eleven-and-a-half-year-old Xu Mingxi officially reached level 30, and was only one spirit ring away from becoming a "master" level expert.
This time, without waiting for Xu Mingguang, his grandfather took him directly to the Star Forest.
It must be said that it was difficult to find a soul beast suitable for Xu Mingxi, let alone one of the right age.
The grandfather and grandson searched for nearly half a year before finally finding the soul beast they needed in a cave.
A light-weaving spider that had just reached the thousand-year-old soul beast level.
Originally, Xu Mingxi wanted to practice his practical fighting skills, but who would have thought that the ray of starlight he emitted was instead caught directly by the weaver spider.
The starlight in his hands seemed more flexible than in the hands of its original owner, Xu Mingxi.
The ray that had just been emitted was instantly woven into a giant web and attacked Xu Mingxi.
"Grandpa, save me."
Finally, Xu Mingxi and his grandfather jointly killed the weaver spider and captured it.
As the purple soul ring floated above the Star Crown, Xu Mingxi opened his eyes.
Without his grandfather saying anything, Xu Mingxi's third soul ring lit up, and the starlight turned into various shapes in his hands.
Sometimes it was a ray, sometimes it was a giant web, sometimes it was a shield.
The third soul skill that Weaver Spider brought to Xu Mingxi is called the Star Net.
At the same time, his control over starlight increases, and he can manipulate starlight to transform into some simple shapes.
Seemingly influenced by the spirit ring of the Light Weaving Spider, the starlight web that Xu Mingxi was weaving had the same toughness as a spider web.
After absorbing the Light Weaver Spider spirit ring, Xu Mingxi's spirit power instantly reached level 32, which was considered sufficient to protect himself.
What's more, according to the rules of the Xingguan Sect, soul masters who were twelve years old or older needed to go out and gain experience on their own.
Xu Mingxi had been delayed for a while because he wanted to get a soul ring, but Xu Mingguang had left half a year ago.
Just now, Xu Mingxi just returned to the sect to rest and came to the sect master hall.
"Master, where did brother Mingguang go? Am I going with him?"
"Mingxi, you're already here. Come and sit down. According to the sect's training rules, you must train alone.
Your brother Mingguang is now in Xingluo City. She wrote to me a while ago and said that her soul power has broken through level 28."
"Really? That's great. In another half a year, brother Mingguang should be able to reach level 30."
"Almost. Just forget about him. But Mingxi, it's time for you to go out and seek experience."
A truly strong person cannot grow in a greenhouse. Xu Mingxi understood this.
The reason he came this time was to ask the sect master about the plan to go out to practice.
"In that case, Grandpa Sect Master, where should I practice?"
The Sect Master thought for a moment. The followers of the Crown Star Sect usually attended various colleges, but which college to choose was a problem.
The two royal academies could not be chosen, and the Star Crown Sect could not be involved in the disputes between the two kingdoms.
Spirit Hall and Elemental Academy were also not good choices, and were not suitable for Star Crown Spirit at all.
The sect leader still had good feelings towards Spirit Hall. He had once gone to the Spirit Hall to receive subsidies while he was training outside.
It was just that the Spirit Hall was a bit chaotic at the moment, and that acting Pope was not a smart person.
Then, the sect leader saw the name of a special academy.
Canghui College was an academy that had a lot of experience in training gem-type weapon spirit owners. The Star Crown Sect also had some disciples who went there to study.
Furthermore, the kingdom adjacent to Canghui College also had a close relationship with the Star Crown Sect.
"Mingxi, what do you think of Canghui College?"
Huh? Looking at the name of the academy pointed out by the sect leader in front of him, Xu Mingxi was a little confused.
Canghui Academy, isn't this a little villain? It seemed that all the students participating in the Soul Master Competition had been turned into idiots by Tang San.
"Teacher, then let's go to this academy."
"Alright, your uncle Fang Zhuo from that sect once studied at Canghui and knows the current dean. He will take you there when the time comes."
Master has another purpose in asking Xu Fang Zhuo to take you there, which is to let him discuss with the dean.
It was important to avoid Xu Mingxi's bone age test when he entered school and changed his age to seventeen.
A twelve-year-old Soul Master was still too eye-catching.
Xu Fangzhuo is 59 years old, a level 65 Control-type Battle Soul Emperor. He and the current Dean Canghui are good friends who participated together in the National Soul Master Competition.
The sect leader is confident that he can solve Mingxi's enrollment problem completely.
"Alright, then, Sect Leader, I'll head back first. I'll go see Uncle Fang Zhuo tomorrow."
"Alright, be careful on the road."
The Sect Master looked at Xu Mingxi who walked out dejectedly. If possible, he really didn't want to let Mingxi leave.
But for the sake of Xu Mingxi's growth, he still harbored his heart and let him go out and explore.
Even so, we still had to take some precautions. So, the sect leader asked someone to summon a second elder.
"Second Elder, Mingxi's safety is in your hands."
"Don't worry, Sect Leader. With me here, no one can harm little Mingxi."
Second Elder was convinced. Now, he was a level 91 Control-type Titled Douluo with two yellow, two purple, and five black spirit rings.
During these six years, the elders in the sect had also made some progress, most of them had been promoted by one or two levels, and the second elder had even broken through the bottleneck and achieved Titled Douluo.
