From Douluo to Zhe Tian

"I've decided. For my second soul ring hunt, I'll choose the Shock Bear. I want its skill—Gravitational Field."

Qin Tian shouted loudly in the carriage, startling Tang San and Xiao Wu.

"Brother Gazi, please spare the Shock Bear!"

Tang San said helplessly, joking.

"Yeah, Brother Gazi, the big dumb bear is so pitiful. You should pick a skill like Speed, for example, Phoenix Crown Winged Snake, Big Mouth Sparrow, or Ghost Crow."

Xiao Wu also spoke up.

Hehe!

The three soul beasts Xiao Wu mentioned were all quite vicious, fond of killing.

However, a Shock Bear that had lived for over a thousand years would awaken the skill Gravitational Field. When this skill activated, it could slow down everyone within the field's range.

Qin Tian thought this skill had a lot of potential. He wasn't in a hurry, and at worst, for his third soul ring, he could go for a flying skill.

Moreover, if he obtained double skills, he could also learn the Shock Bear's Wild Charge.

That way, he would have both a displacement and a speed-up skill.

It's just that he wasn't sure whether, after acquiring Gravitational Field, he might eventually develop skills like Shinra Tensei, Chibaku Tensei, or Chidori, fully utilizing gravity-based abilities.

The three of them were now top-level Spirit Masters at level 20. Their talents had even stunned the Master, who called them three monsters from the Notting Junior Spirit Master Academy. They were allowed to hunt soul rings, but were forbidden from registering at the Spirit Hall and prohibited from telling anyone about their breakthroughs.

The Master handed them his Spirit Hall token, instructing them to tell the guards that they were only there to gather herbs.

This was a task assigned by the academy teachers!

Thus, Leighton and the Master didn't follow them.

Since they were hunting their second soul ring, Leighton and the Master could not accompany them. Once Spirit Masters break through to the Great Spirit Master level, they were not allowed to have teachers accompany them.

This was a test—a transformation every Spirit Master striving to grow stronger must undergo.

Moreover, their combat power made Leighton and the Master feel embarrassed. They were likely no longer a match for these three youngsters.

Leighton and the Master had high expectations for them, and the Master shamelessly accepted Xiao Wu as a disciple again.

If they grew successfully, it was very likely that three young Title Douluos would emerge in the future!

...

Soul Hunting Forest!

It had only been half a year, and the three of them could once again gain new soul rings.

However, Qin Tian remembered that Xiao Wu, before level 70, would rely on her own understanding for her soul rings, and there was no need to hunt soul beasts at all.

After all, Qin Tian remembered some of her characteristics from when he watched Douluo Dalu. However, now, she just looked like a beautiful little girl.

"Let's first help Xiao San get a soul ring. The Master has identified a few targets for him: Ghost Vine, Magic Spider, and King Cobra. I suggest choosing the King Cobra or the Magic Spider."

Qin Tian spoke up.

"Why?"

Xiao Wu asked curiously.

Tang San was also curious and wanted to hear Qin Tian opinion.

"The Magic Spider's web has adhesion, toughness, and toxicity, which makes it perfect for your plant-based martial soul. This is called attribute alignment.

On the other hand, the King Cobra's coil skill, whip-tail skill, and venom skill would also make your Blue Silver Grass stronger.

As for the Ghost Vine, it's more of a parasitic ability and too ordinary in terms of combat power.

However, if you could absorb a thousand-year-old Ghost Vine, its Ghost Mist and underground movement would be excellent skills."

Qin Tian spoke seriously, explaining with precision.

This was his biggest gain over the past six months—he had read a lot and specialized in various soul beast skills.

In combat, Spirit Masters rely heavily on skills. A full set of skills, once used, can feel like a combo or a finishing move, wiping everything out in one go.

After hearing Qin Tian analysis, Tang San and Xiao Wu looked at him as if they were seeing him in a new light, sizing him up.

"Brother Gazi, you... you finally started thinking. Now, I can rest easy."

Tang San said excitedly.

Xiao Wu nodded in agreement. Qin Tian, who always used bricks to settle things, seemed like a dangerous person in her eyes.

Qin Tian had black lines all over his forehead. Was he really like that?

"By the way, Brother Gazi, have you analyzed how to use the Shock Bear's Gravitational Field, which only affects a one-meter radius?"

Tang San casually struck back.

"What do you know? Brother, when obtaining a skill, it's about the potential. Do you understand? A thousand-year-old Shock Bear's Gravitational Field does have a one-meter radius, but a two-thousand-year-old Shock Bear has increased that to two meters.

And a ten-thousand-year-old Shock Bear has a Gravitational Field with a ten-meter radius. How awesome is that?"

Qin Tian tried to explain, struggling a bit.

"Hehe!"

Xiao Wu laughed.

Tang San was silent. In his opinion, Spirit Masters capable of hunting a ten-thousand-year soul beast were usually beyond the Soul Sect level.

Anyway, to him, the Shock Bear's Gravitational Field was completely impractical.

Boom!

At this moment, a huge crashing sound drew their attention.

"It's probably a large soul beast fighting over territory," Xiao Wu immediately said.

"Didn't we make a mistake by not joining a soul hunting team?" Tang San spoke up.

"Don't worry, follow me. Let's go take a look."

Qin Tian confidently walked forward. Over the past six months, his physical strength had increased to the point where he could exert 4,900 pounds, with a body comparable to a 290-year-old Shock Bear.

With his soul skills, Qin Tian felt confident he could take on a thousand-year soul beast.

There were no soul beasts over five thousand years old in the Soul Hunting Forest, so he wasn't worried.

The three of them working together could probably take down a two-thousand-year soul beast. The key was to see if they could find a cheap deal. Xiao Wu said there were soul beasts fighting—what if a Shock Bear over a thousand years old showed up?

"Alright, let's go take a look."

Tang San originally disagreed, but seeing Xiao Wu eager to go, he reluctantly followed.

Admittedly, he was curious too!

Along the way, the three encountered several fleeing soul beasts: Ghost Wolves, Shadow Cats, Mountain Magic Boars, and Knife-Horn Sheep.

Qin Tian took out his brick and slapped away the soul beasts along the way. Truly a humanoid soul beast.

Xiao Wu once suspected that Qin Tian, like her, was a ten-thousand-year power-type soul beast who had transformed into a humanoid.

During this hunt, Tang San's target was soul beasts over 800 years old—too high, and even with his Mysterious Heaven Skill, he feared being overwhelmed.

Qin Tian target was a Shock Bear of 1,500 to 2,000 years old.

He hadn't told Tang San or Xiao Wu yet, worried it might scare them.

So, when Xiao Wu mentioned a large soul beast fight, Qin Tian took interest.

He still had his trump card, the Bronze Coffin martial soul. If released, even a ten-thousand-year soul beast would be crushed.

He had already studied the soul beasts in this Soul Hunting Forest. There were twenty head soul beasts over four thousand years old, including the Shock Bear.

A person who doesn't dare take risks won't get anywhere.

A horse doesn't get fat without night grass; a person doesn't get rich without windfall!

This saying was Qin Tian biggest lesson from his past life. His parents, who were daring and left the village to settle in the city, became successful. Those who stayed behind only lived hard lives.
