As all members of the Emperor Team finished absorbing their Immortal Herbs, everyone began comparing their progress with great excitement.
"What's all the noise about? Is today's training finished? Have those of you who broke through written down your Martial Soul Data Panels yet?"
At this moment, Qin Ming directly interrupted their exchange, putting on the air of a strict teacher. However, the slight upward curl at the corner of his mouth revealed that he was also extremely satisfied with his own increase in strength.
"Alright, everyone report your strength improvements to Xiao Lin. Let Xiao Lin write out your Martial Soul Data Panels for you."
After Qin Ming finished speaking, he was the first to step in front of Xiao Lin to report his own progress.
"Xiao Lin, I'll go first. My Inferno Grey Wolf has now gained an attribute close to Ultimate Fire, and my Soul Power has increased by 5 ranks. I am now a Rank 69 Soul Emperor."
As Qin Ming's words fell, everyone present gasped in unison, shocked by his rapid advancement.
At this rate, wouldn't Qin Ming break through to Rank 70 almost immediately?
Even Xiao Lin was surprised by Qin Ming's transformation; it seemed Qin Ming had progressed significantly more than he did in the original timeline.
Nevertheless, Xiao Lin shook his head.
"Let's wait on the data panels for the others. Many teammates are about to obtain their fourth Soul Rings; it won't be too late to write them then. I can, however, write one for Teacher Qin Ming."
"That works. When it's time for you all to hunt for Soul Rings, I will take you myself."
Qin Ming nodded, then looked forward with anticipation to the Martial Soul Data Panel Xiao Lin would write.
In Qin Ming's eyes, since Xiao Lin was the disciple of Grandmaster Xiao Yan, his data panels would surely be the most accurate. After Qin Ming released his Martial Soul, performed his Martial Soul Possession, and explained his Soul Skills, Xiao Lin began recording Qin Ming's data.
[Martial Soul: Inferno Grey Wolf]
Destructive Power: A+ (Pseudo-Ultimate Fire; destructive power is top-tier among fire-attribute Soul Masters)
Speed: B+ (Teacher Qin Ming's sixth Soul Skill is Flame Acceleration; the longer it lasts, the faster he becomes, not inferior to an Agility Attack System Battle Soul Master of the same rank)
Range: B+
Durability: A (Consumption has decreased after absorbing the Flame Spirit Grass)
Precision: B+
Growth Potential: A-
Special Energy: A (Pseudo-Ultimate Fire)
After recording Qin Ming's data panel, the other members of the Emperor Team spoke of their own growth one after another.
Among them, those who grew the most were actually Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu.
After Ning Rongrong absorbed the Beautiful Silk Tulip, her Martial Soul gained the properties of the herb, allowing it to absorb the "treasure essence" of heaven and earth.
Her Martial Soul evolved into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, and her Soul Power directly increased by seven ranks, putting her just a hair's breadth away from Rank 40.
Xiao Wu's Martial Soul had also undergone changes.
Her Soft Bone Rabbit Martial Soul now possessed a portion of the Yearning Heartbroken Red's abilities, and her physical constitution had risen drastically. Not only that, but her body was now brimming with vitality, feeling much like the sensation she felt when Tang San treated her.
Xiao Lin speculated that Xiao Wu had gained the indestructible strength of the Yearning Heartbroken Red and its "bringing the dead back to life" effect.
Xiao Wu had already met the basic requirements for training Bloodline Qi power. Furthermore, her rank was stuck at Rank 40, just waiting for her to condense her own Soul Ring.
Xiao Lin was secretly shocked.
With Xiao Wu having consumed the Yearning Heartbroken Red, once she grew up, would her "Invincible Golden Body" be able to block God-level attacks?
The next significant growths belonged to Tang Ni and Dugu Yan.
Tang Ni's Martial Soul was refined by the Eight Petal Immortal Orchid, making her Golden Dragon Martial Soul even stronger, though Tang Ni couldn't describe the specifics. However, making the Golden Dragon Martial Soul even slightly stronger was already a massive leap.
Beyond that, Tang Ni's rank was also stuck at Rank 40.
Dugu Yan's progress went without saying; her Martial Soul had been improved by the Dragon Blood Grass and had evolved into the Jade Phosphor Poison Dragon.
However, Dugu Yan's Jade Phosphor Poison Dragon had now become much closer to a true dragon, with its toxicity seemingly diminished. Her poison sac had condensed into a "Poison Core," roughly the size of a mung bean.
Of course, this didn't mean her poison was no longer lethal; it simply meant that compared to the drastic physical strengthening of her Martial Soul, the poison itself hadn't progressed as much.
Dugu Yan's Soul Power had now reached Rank 47, making it no problem for her to break through to the Soul King level within two years. Xiao Lin was even debating whether or not to give her the Snow Swan Kiss; if he did, her poison could truly be called the Ultimate Poison.
Next was Yu Tianheng, whose Martial Soul had also undergone a massive transformation. First, the size of his Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon had increased significantly, and the Martial Soul began shifting toward the form of a Golden Saint Dragon.
According to Yu Tianheng, his original Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon had always been quite unstable, but it had finally stabilized. His Soul Power had reached Rank 49, leaving him only one rank away from becoming a Soul King.
Xiao Lin's personal take on the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon was that the family had been focusing on the wrong attribute for generations. Perhaps since the very first ancestor, they shouldn't have been absorbing lightning attributes, but rather light or pure strength.
While lightning is powerful, it is also highly unstable.
According to records Xiao Lin had read, lightning-attribute Soul Beasts often level up quickly by absorbing lightning, but they also risk exploding due to the instability of excessive electrical energy in their bodies.
It was already fortunate that the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul didn't explode and only suffered from frequent mutations.
In Xiao Lin's eyes, the "Dragon Transformation" secret technique of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect was likely created specifically to help the body withstand the burden of that powerful lightning.
Seeing that Yu Tianheng's Martial Soul showed signs of evolving into a Golden Saint Dragon, Xiao Lin recommended a specific Soul Beast for his next ring: the Heavenly Dragon Horse, a creature with very pure Light Holy Dragon bloodline.
Then there were the Shi brothers.
Their Martial Souls had undergone a degree of "atavism," returning to their ancestral roots. However, the Black Turtle bloodline was still faint; instead, their control over the water and ice attributes had become much stronger.
Their Soul Power was also stuck at Rank 40.
Since the brothers were already on the verge of Rank 40 before this, they weren't quite as jubilant as the others. Fortunately, Xiao Lin chose a Soul Beast for them as well: the Mysterious Underworld Snake-Tortoise, a creature with the Black Turtle bloodline.
The "snake" part of this tortoise was the key to supplementing the Black Turtle lineage. If they didn't evolve into a full Black Turtle this time, they could continue adding Soul Rings from Black Turtle-lineage Soul Beasts later.
They could also choose Soul Beasts with True Dragon bloodlines to become Dragon Tortoises. Naturally, the two brothers could each choose a different evolutionary path.
As for the remaining three—Ye Lingling, Yu Feng, and Osler—their Martial Souls did not change. They simply saw an increase in physical fitness, vitality, and life force, while the consumption of their Soul Skills decreased.
Ye Lingling's healing ability gained an additional effect: "Mass Calm." The power wasn't overwhelming, but it showed Ye Lingling a new possibility for the Nine Heart Begonia. All three were now at Rank 40, waiting to obtain their Soul Rings together.
"Since so many of us are about to obtain Soul Rings, we might as well go to the Star Dou Forest together," Qin Ming decided immediately after hearing about his students' growth.
"Teacher Qin Ming, I need to go to the Far North, so I won't be going with you," Xiao Lin said. His route was the complete opposite of Qin Ming's—one heading north and the other south—and he certainly didn't want to waste time.
