Chapter 33: The Genius Girl Shui Bing'er
"Hello, Uncle Lei."
Yu Tianlin greeted politely, though his mind was still lingering on what his father had said earlier about martial spirits.
I seem to remember something about the Thunder Eagle martial spirit. In the original story, during the Spirit Master Competition, Thunder Academy had a Spirit Master with a Thunder Eagle martial spirit.
After studying Yu Tianlin for a while, Lei Bao suddenly stood up, walked back to his desk, and started rummaging through the pile of documents on it.
Seeing this, Yu Mingfeng asked in confusion, "Old Lei, what are you looking for?"
"Information on the students from the other four element academies who are participating in this exchange and networking event," Lei Bao replied without looking up. He continued searching, then quickly pulled out a file. "Here it is."
Yu Mingfeng took the file bag from Lei Bao. From his angle, Yu Tianlin could clearly see the three large characters written on it: Shui Bing'er.
Turning the folder over in his hands, Yu Mingfeng asked a string of questions. "Shui Bing'er? Who is this? Why are you giving me her information?"
"Tianlin reached level twenty two at only eight years old. Among all the students in the Five Elements Academies, only she can barely compare," Lei Bao explained as Yu Mingfeng pulled out the information sheet. "This girl, Shui Bing'er, is not an ordinary person. She is the daughter of the dean of Skywater Academy. She broke through to level twenty at about eight years and eight months old, added a spirit ring that same month, and reached level twenty two exactly at nine years old."
"Tsk tsk, her martial spirit mutated from Water Flying Phoenix into the top tier beast martial spirit, Ice Phoenix."
Even with his broad experience, Yu Mingfeng could not help but exclaim as he read. "She is only ten years old and already at level twenty five. At this cultivation speed, she will definitely be able to break through to the three ring Spirit Elder realm by twelve. She is truly terrifying."
Yu Mingfeng knew that his son had gained two levels from eating the Dragon Origin Fruit, and another level from absorbing his second spirit ring. That was why he had reached level twenty two at the age of eight. If those three levels were taken away, Yu Tianlin might not be able to compare with this girl named Shui Bing'er.
Thinking of this, Yu Mingfeng handed the information sheet directly to Yu Tianlin and warned him, "Look, we have only just left the clan and we already encountered such a genius. There are many geniuses out in the world, and there may be people even stronger than you. So, Tianlin, you must not become arrogant or complacent."
Yu Tianlin naturally knew who Shui Bing'er was. He remembered that she had a spirit fusion skill with a seemingly random teammate. In the Spirit Master Competition, she had been the first to force out Tang San's Eight Spider Lances, causing him a lot of trouble.
What he had not expected was that Shui Bing'er was this young, only ten years old right now.
It was important to remember that the next All Continent Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournament would be held next year, and the one from the original story would not happen until five years after that.
In other words, the tournament in the original work would take place six years from now. By then, Shui Bing'er would only be sixteen, and she would definitely have broken through to level forty.
That was not all. Skywater Academy had several other powerful Spirit Masters, yet Shui Bing'er had become their captain. That meant she was not just someone who had barely reached level forty. Yu Tianlin guessed that she should have been around level forty three at that time.
Terrifying. Level forty three at sixteen. That meant she must have broken through to level forty by fifteen, tying the record of Spirit Hall's Golden Generation.
Aside from those who relied on drugs to increase their levels, only Qian Renxue and Xiao Wu could surpass this.
However, Qian Renxue possessed a divine level martial spirit inheritance and had innate spirit power at level twenty. Xiao Wu was a one hundred thousand year Spirit Beast reborn as a human, making her cultivation speed absurdly fast. Neither could be judged by the standards of ordinary people.
It could be said that, ignoring external cheats, the current theoretical limit for a normal human was reaching level forty by the age of fifteen.
Of course, that was only for this era. Ten thousand years later, there would be no shortage of fifteen year old five ring Spirit Kings, and there would even be seven ring Spirit Saints under twenty.
Shui Bing'er was monstrously talented.
Who would have thought that a character with so little description in the original work would actually have such overwhelming talent behind the scenes?
After finishing Shui Bing'er's information, Yu Tianlin said seriously, "Don't worry. I will keep working hard and will not become arrogant or complacent."
He also felt a sense of pressure. If even someone like Shui Bing'er was this strong, then there was no need to mention the three future gods from the original story.
Rakshasa Goddess Bibi Dong was already above level ninety. Angel Goddess Qian Renxue was older than him, had innate level twenty spirit power, and was definitely far ahead by now. As for Sea God Tang San, his current spirit power might still be lower than Yu Tianlin's, but after Xiao Wu's sacrifice, the gap would rapidly close. And once he started adding spirit rings to the Clear Sky Hammer, his level would climb even faster.
He did not want to be left behind.
"Tianlin is only eight years old, yet he is already not proud or complacent about his achievements. That is very good."
Looking at Yu Tianlin's serious expression, Lei Bao could not help but praise him. Then he turned to Yu Mingfeng and asked, "Mingfeng, what are your plans next? Do you want to stay here for a few days? Once I finish my work, I can call Jinqing out and the three of us brothers can have a few drinks."
"No need." Yu Mingfeng shook his head. "I will leave Tianlin in your care. I am going to Heaven Dou Royal Academy later to see Tianheng, then I have to return to the clan."
Lei Bao naturally understood that, as the young clan leader of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, Yu Mingfeng had many responsibilities and could not stay outside for long, so he said, "Alright, leave Tianlin to me. You can rest assured."
"Hey, Tianlin, Dad is going back now. Study hard at the academy and don't get into fights with your classmates."
Yu Mingfeng squatted down in front of Yu Tianlin, placing both hands on his shoulders. "Tianxin is also at the academy. You can ask him for help if you run into any problems. If you really cannot solve something, go to Uncle Lei. During your breaks, you can also visit Heaven Dou Royal Academy to play with your big brother."
Faced with his endlessly nagging father, Yu Tianlin could only reply helplessly, "I know, I know."
"Alright, that is enough."
Yu Mingfeng stood up, took an envelope from his storage spirit tool, and handed it to Lei Bao. "This is a letter from my father to the academy leadership. It contains some suggestions on how to arrange Tianlin. Take a look when you have time."
With that, Yu Mingfeng turned and left.
"Safe travels," Lei Bao called after him.
Goodbye, Dad.
After Yu Mingfeng's figure disappeared, Lei Bao did not rush to open the letter. Instead, he smiled at Yu Tianlin and said, "Little Tianlin, you have not had dinner yet, have you? I will have someone take you to the cafeteria. The food at our Thunder Academy is quite good."
