Duolou: After taking advice, I became Supreme!

Just thinking about Yun Feng's dedication made it clear how hard he had worked! It wasn't easy at all! However, more than anything, it was a great relief—after all, he was a talent.

Moreover, Yun Feng had already joined the Spirit Hall. Although he was only a reserve member before, once he successfully obtained his spirit ring this time, he could officially be promoted! The benefits of hunting spirit beasts would naturally follow.

During these almost three years, Yun Feng had never stopped practicing Tai Chi and, following Tang San's advice, he constantly ate a lot. Naturally, his body had become incredibly strong.

Ma Xiunuo looked at Yun Feng with a smile and said: "I guess you don't think you came here just to register as a spirit master, right?"

Yun Feng smiled shyly before responding a little awkwardly: "Well, you guessed right. I'd like to ask for a spirit ring. Is that possible?"

Ma Xiunuo wasn't surprised by this request; it was completely normal. He immediately agreed.

"Rest assured, Xiao Feng, you're the Spirit Hall's golden goose! Thanks to the soap-making technique you provided, I've gained quite a reputation in Spirit City. Of course, we'll help you get the best-aged spirit ring!"

But when Ma Xiunuo finished speaking, Yun Feng shook his head. Seeing Ma Xiunuo's confused expression, Yun Feng slowly explained his thoughts.

"Master Ma Xiunuo, I wonder if you've heard of Grandmaster?"

Although Ma Xiunuo didn't understand why Yun Feng suddenly brought up Yu Xiaogang, he nodded.

"I've heard of him. What about it? Does this conflict with your spirit hunt?"

Yun Feng explained: "Well, my innate spirit power is only level one. I've heard that Grandmaster comes from a prestigious family, and his innate spirit power was even half a level lower than mine. But he still managed to get the best-aged spirit rings for his first two rings and has now reached level 29."

"I don't have such a good family background, so I'm worried I'll hit a similar bottleneck in the future."

Ma Xiunuo still didn't fully grasp Yun Feng's point, but he sensed that something was off. What exactly was Yun Feng trying to do?

"So, what do you want to do?" Ma Xiunuo asked cautiously.

Seeing the question, Yun Feng's eyes gleamed with determination as he revealed his plan.

"I want to absorb a spirit ring beyond my level to build a stronger foundation. Besides, my body is strong enough to handle it!"

Ma Xiunuo froze, unsure what he meant. "Beyond your level?"

Yun Feng briefly explained: "I mean absorbing a spirit ring with a higher age limit than what humans are typically able to take for their first ring."

Upon hearing this, Ma Xiunuo immediately caught on and firmly rejected Yun Feng's idea.

"That won't work!"

Perhaps to avoid hurting Yun Feng's feelings, Ma Xiunuo softened his tone after his initial refusal.

"Xiao Feng, you're the most hardworking child I've ever seen. You can't be reckless. The Spirit Hall has existed for tens of thousands of years. Since the Angel God founded it, we've been in this land."

"We've already perfected the spirit ring age limits. The current method is the safest, with no risk to your life!"

But Yun Feng firmly shook his head at this point.

"Master Ma Xiunuo, I don't want to live an ordinary life. My innate spirit power won't support me in the long run. If I want to change that, I have to work on every possible detail that could make me stronger!"

Ma Xiunuo fell silent.

Looking at the serious young man in front of him, his mind raced, and he couldn't find words to respond.

Yes, with an innate spirit power of level one, if he didn't take a risk, how could he change his fate?

However, after thinking of countless spirit masters who never succeeded, Ma Xiunuo felt uneasy. The determination in Yun Feng's voice and eyes was undeniable. After a moment, Ma Xiunuo sighed deeply.

Such unwavering will… Knowing the danger, yet still willing to take the risk. If he didn't let him try, Yun Feng might regret it for the rest of his life.

"Are you sure you've thought this through?"

Seeing Ma Xiunuo relent, Yun Feng smiled and nodded.

"Yes, even if it costs my life, I won't regret it!"

Ma Xiunuo laughed too, his gaze toward Yun Feng softening.

In all his years in Notting City, he had seen many geniuses—many who left full of pride, only to end up achieving nothing. But Yun Feng gave him a different feeling.

It was as if Yun Feng was just one opportunity away—one opportunity to transform from a fish into a dragon.

After a moment of silence, Ma Xiunuo stood beside Yun Feng, smiling warmly. "Xiao Feng, let me test your body's strength."

Yun Feng didn't hesitate and extended his arm. Ma Xiunuo took hold of it and squeezed, carefully assessing him.

Yun Feng's physical strength was far beyond his peers, almost reaching the level of a Spirit Grandmaster. Ma Xiunuo couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

"He must have endured so much suffering to train to this level."

A person's bone strength could reveal a lot about their spirit master potential.

After letting go, Ma Xiunuo asked again.

"Xiao Feng, are you sure? If you're ready, we'll set out tomorrow. I'll personally help you get the spirit ring!"

Yun Feng smiled and nodded firmly.

"Master Ma Xiunuo, I've made it clear. I don't want to wait until I'm at a dead end to start carving a new path. I want to change my destiny while I still have the chance!"

Ma Xiunuo laughed heartily, filled with approval for Yun Feng.

"If you succeed, I'll share in your glory! This could be a chance to make history, to revolutionize the Spirit Hall!"

"Then you, Xiao Feng, will be the true Grandmaster of the spirit world—not that theorist, Yu Xiaogang!"

Hearing this, Yun Feng blushed a little and grinned.

"You're flattering me. Who knows if this will even work? Also, could I make a small request? Even if it succeeds, could you keep it a secret from the Spirit Hall for a year?"

Ma Xiunuo looked at Yun Feng, puzzled, not understanding the reason.

Yun Feng explained: "If it works, it'll prove the theory is correct. But if everyone knows, I'll lose my advantage. So, could you please keep it quiet for a year?"

Ma Xiunuo fell silent.

He wanted to refuse Yun Feng outright. After all, his duty was to report anything useful to the Spirit Hall to protect the people. Yun Feng's request clearly conflicted with that responsibility.

But after considering Yun Feng's relentless effort over the years for this seemingly impossible dream, his heart softened.

After a moment, Ma Xiunuo shook his head.

"I'm sorry, Xiao Feng. I can't do that. If you succeed, I have to report it to the Spirit Hall. It's not about anything else—it's about loyalty to my duty. That's the basic principle of how we conduct ourselves."
