Chapter 101: Shi Zhen's Breakthrough
Three months have passed in the blink of an eye.
After three months of training, Shi Lin, who was originally fair-skinned, now has dark skin and strong muscles, which shows that the training has indeed been very effective.
Today, Shi Lin was training on the field, carrying a sandbag heavier than himself and running wildly, when he suddenly noticed Fu Gui standing outside the training field with a smile on his face.
Shi Lin was stunned. What happened? Why was Uncle Fu Gui looking for him?
"Brother An, look, Uncle Fu Gui." Shi Lin said to Shi An.
"It really is Uncle Fu Gui!" Following the direction Shi Lin pointed, Shi An indeed saw Fu Gui smiling and watching him. Shi An raised his hand and waved to Fu Gui.
"You two, hurry up and run! There are still three laps left. After that, you can do whatever you want," Zhao Wuji snorted and then shouted at Shi Lin and Shi An.
"Alright, Teacher Zhao." Shi Lin shook the sandbags on his body with a sigh, and then continued running with Shi An.
Because Shi Lin and Shi An consumed a large amount of beast meat produced by the Beast Meat Gu, their strength increased significantly, making them far stronger than their peers.
However, the two are still young and cannot carry too much weight, as it could affect their future height. Therefore, after discussion, Flanders and Zhao Wuji decided to increase the amount of exercise for Shi Lin and Shi An.
Ma Hongjun and Oscar had already finished their daily training and were reading on the side. They were used to Shi Lin and Shi An's animalistic stamina.
A dozen minutes later, Shi Lin and Shi An finally completed the last three laps. After throwing away the sandbags, they sat on the ground without any regard for their image, panting heavily.
"Young Master, let's go see Uncle Fu Gui first, and then rest," Shi An said to Shi Lin.
After all, Fu Gui has been waiting here for quite some time.
"Yes, let's go. It's really not good to keep Uncle Fu Gui waiting for so long." Shi Lin replied, then struggled to get up from the ground and, together with Shi An, walked towards Fu Gui.
"Greetings, Uncle Fu Gui." Shi Lin and Shi An bowed to Fu Gui at the same time.
"Greetings, young master!" Fu Gui greeted Shi Lin with a broad smile.
"Uncle Fu Gui, what happened? Why did you suddenly come to see us?" Shi Lin asked Fu Gui in confusion.
After all, under normal circumstances, Fu Gui, the Shi family's butler, is very busy. He wouldn't have time to chat with the two of them.
"It's like this, young master. The master has just broken through to level ten and become a Soul Master, so he wants to ask you to go back and study the matter of hunting soul beasts." Fu Gui stroked his beard and smiled at Shi Lin as he spoke.
"You broke through? You broke through so quickly!" Shi Lin's eyes widened in surprise.
Shi Lin never expected that his father would break through to level ten so quickly. In just four months, Shi Zhen went from zero soul power level to level ten. This speed was truly astonishing.
This is normal, after all, Shi Zhen has a top-grade wine Gu, two high-grade Bitter Wine Gu, and a large amount of soul power crystals that he can absorb. It would be bad if he didn't cultivate quickly.
Now that Shi Zhen has broken through to level ten, the next step is to research soul rings for him.
"Let's go, Uncle Fu Gui, let's go find my father and discuss the next steps." Shi Lin smiled, then pulled Fu Gui and Shi An away from the training ground and headed towards Shi Zhen's courtyard.
"Let's go eat." After watching Shi Lin and Shi An leave, Zhao Wuji called to Ma Hongjun and Oscar, and led the two of them to eat.
...
Upon arriving at Shi Zhen's courtyard, Shi Lin discovered that all the servants were gone.
There wasn't a single servant in the vast courtyard.
"Father is really cautious," Shi Lin said with a smile, looking at the deserted courtyard.
"There's no way around it, we can't be careless. We don't know how many members of the Xiao family or the Yan family are mixed in among our servants. The Shi family may be big, but it has many loopholes." Fu Gui nodded with a smile after hearing Shi Lin's words.
Shi Lin nodded in agreement. The Shi family manor was indeed large, so it was inevitable that there would be spies. Moreover, Shi Lin felt that there were quite a few spies in his own family. However, there was no point in catching them, so Shi Lin did not take any action.
Soon, the three of them arrived at Shi Zhen's study.
Standing at the door of the study, they saw Flanders and Shi Zhen chatting and drinking tea inside.
Although Flanders is a Soul Saint level expert, Shi Zhen is a big spender. More importantly, today's tea is tea leaves that cost more than 10,000 gold soul coins per kilogram.
How could Flanders not be enthusiastic about eating and drinking for free?
"Greetings, Dean Flanders. Greetings, Father."
"Greetings, Dean Flanders! Greetings, sir!"
Shi Lin and Shi An bowed respectfully to the two people in the study.
"Come in quickly. I called you two here today mainly to discuss arranging a soul ring for me. Haha, your old man has finally broken through to level ten." Shi Zhen waved to the two men and said with a smile.
"Hehe, congratulations, Dad! Congratulations, Dad!" Shi Lin walked into the study with a grin and congratulated Shi Zhen.
"You brat!" Shi Zhen smiled helplessly at Shi Lin's appearance.
"Xiao Lin, I'm thinking of having your four little ones accompany your father to the Soul Hunting Forest to hunt soul beasts. What do you think?" Flanders put down his teacup and turned to ask Shi Lin.
Shi Lin was also stunned after hearing Flanders's words.
With so many teachers at Shrek Academy, it's a bit irresponsible of them to send four little kids to hunt soul beasts.
"Dean Flanders, this... isn't this too hasty?" Shi Lin scratched his head awkwardly and said to Flanders.
Shi Lin was a little taken aback when Flanders suddenly said something that he had never studied this subject before.
"Consider this a task for you. You need to consider Mr. Shi Zhen's choice of soul rings, acquisition of soul hunting tokens, finding soul beasts, hunting soul beasts, and absorbing soul rings." Flanders pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses and said to Shi Lin with a smile.
"This..." Shi Lin looked at Flanders with some helplessness, unsure whether he should accept the mission.
Shi Lin lowered his head and pondered for a while, then slowly raised his head and looked at Flanders seriously.
"Since this is a task left by Dean Flanders, I will definitely do my best to complete it." Shi Lin nodded to Flanders and accepted the task.
