Chapter 84 Shuiyue'er: You said you're level 9?
Chapter 84 Shuiyue'er: You said you're level 90?
The cabin has two rooms, originally one for Leng Jun and one for Shui Bing'er.
Now that three more people have arrived, Leng Jun has no choice but to share a room with Su Mo and the other two.
Fortunately, there were three beds in the room. Yue Guan and Gui Mei chose the same bed, while Su Mo and Leng Jun each chose a bed.
"Your Excellencies, please forgive the simplicity of the rooms."
Seeing that Yue Guan and Gui Mei were forced to share a small bed, Leng Jun hurriedly apologized.
"It's alright, the old ghost is small and won't take up much space."
Yue Guan laughed, showing no airs of a Spirit Hall elder.
"I hope Your Majesties won't hold it against you."
Leng Jun smiled apologetically.
The night passed quickly.
Su Mo woke up early and learned from his conversation with Leng Jun that the house was specially built by Tianshui Academy.
This was so that the students of the academy would have a place to live when hunting soul beasts.
Tianshui College has built many similar buildings, and they all bear the college's emblem on the outside.
The three of them came out this time for Shui Yue'er's fourth soul ring. After more than half a year of cultivation, Shui Yue'er has reached level 40 and is only one soul ring away from breaking through to the Soul Master level.
"Since Miss Yue'er needs to hunt soul beasts, why don't we join her?"
"It just so happens that I also need to hunt a soul beast. If we team up, we can look out for each other. This is also a way of repaying you for letting me stay for the night."
Su Mo made a suggestion to Leng Jun.
"You also need to hunt soul beasts?"
Leng Jun stared at Su Mo in disbelief.
He also watched the last major competition from the sidelines.
He clearly remembered that Su Mo's cultivation level had already reached Soul Douluo, so how could he possibly need to hunt soul beasts again?
Could it be that he, like Tang San, possesses twin martial souls?
Leng Jun tried his best to observe Su Mo, but no matter what he did, he couldn't discern Su Mo's true level of cultivation.
"I just broke through level 90 a few days ago."
Su Mo answered calmly.
"What did you say?"
Shui Yue'er arrived in Su Mo's room at some point and happened to overhear Su Mo's words.
She looked at Su Mo, her eyes filled with astonishment.
Su Mo is about the same age as her, so how did he manage to cultivate to level 90?
She had initially been smug about breaking through to level 40, but now, thinking back, she felt like a clown.
"Now that everyone is awake, shall we set off now?"
Su Mo looked at Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er's petite figures and smiled.
"nature."
Shui Bing'er smiled radiantly and nodded to Leng Jun.
He then patted the distraught Shuiyue'er and pulled her out of the hut.
Su Mo and his two companions walked ahead, while Shui Yue'er kept whispering to Shui Bing'er.
"Sis, do you think Su Mo really is level 90?"
"Why would someone need to lie to you?"
"But wasn't he only at the Soul Douluo level in the last competition? Didn't Dean Leng say that cultivation slows down significantly once you reach the Soul Douluo level?"
"He's a genius, and you still want to compare yourself to him?"
Shui Bing'er tapped Shui Yue'er's little head, ending the conversation.
"Please stop knocking on me."
Shuiyue pouted, looking sullen.
Her initial joy at breaking through level 40 vanished completely after learning that Su Mo had already reached level 90.
The six of them traveled together, heading deeper into the frozen forest.
Although there are some decent soul beasts in the outer areas, they are nothing compared to those in the depths.
As the group ventured deeper into the area, the appearance of thousand-year-old soul beasts became more and more frequent.
There was even a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast, but Shui Yue'er's physique did not allow her to absorb a ten-thousand-year-old soul ring.
"Sis, why did you let that ten-thousand-year-old soul beast escape?"
Shuiyue said listlessly.
"With your small frame, absorbing a ten-thousand-year-old soul ring would surely burst you out of shape."
Shui Bing'er joked.
"Isn't Su Mo's fourth spirit ring a ten-thousand-year spirit ring?"
Shui Yue'er muttered, but her words were still accurately caught by Shui Bing'er.
"Why do you always compare yourself to Su Mo? If you can withstand one punch from him, I'll chase after that ten-thousand-year-old soul beast."
Shui Bing'er said irritably.
Upon hearing this, Shui Yue'er immediately lost her temper. Let alone taking a punch, even a single finger from Su Mo could kill her.
Su Mo heard their whispers clearly, but he just smiled knowingly and didn't say anything more.
It would be a miracle if Shui Yue'er could withstand a ten-thousand-year soul ring, since she has neither tempered her body nor eaten any immortal herbs.
The sheer oppressive feeling of that ten-thousand-year-old spirit ring alone was enough to crush her.
Su Mo suddenly recalled the scene when he absorbed the Cave Demon Spider many years ago, and he didn't know how he survived it.
Perhaps it was the spiritual strength gained from living two lives that allowed Su Mo to overcome that ordeal.
As Su Mo was pondering, a pure white falcon stretched out its claws and reached out to grab Shui Yue'er.
"How dare you!"
Leng Jun frowned slightly, and eight spirit rings suddenly appeared.
He raised his right hand, and an ice pillar rose from the ground, piercing straight through the falcon.
"Moonlight makes her move!"
Leng Jun shouted and grabbed the falcon.
He had visited the Frozen Forest countless times and recognized the falcon as a five-thousand-year-old soul beast, the Snow Eagle, which was perfect for Shui Yue'er.
Without hesitation, Shui Yue'er instantly drew the curved sword from her waist.
The scimitar was forged from black iron, and gleamed with a cold light under the weak sunlight.
Shuiyue'er held the knife in her right hand and swung it sharply, severing Xueying's head.
His head fell to the ground with a thud, and blood gushed from Xueying's neck.
Leng Jun threw Xue Ying's corpse on the ground, and a purple soul ring slowly condensed above Xue Ying's body.
Shui Yue'er raised her right hand and activated her soul power. The five-thousand-year-old soul ring slowly flew towards Shui Yue'er.
Su Mo nodded in approval as he watched Shui Yue'er's decisive actions.
He never expected that this seemingly delicate woman would have such a fierce side.
A moment later, Shuiyue opened her eyes, her joy evident in her expression.
"I'm a Soul Master now!"
Shuiyue jumped up and down and shouted because she was so happy.
Her voice made some of the snow on the trees fall, as if congratulating her.
"Thank you, Dean Leng; thank you, Su Mo; thank you, Your Excellencies; and thank you, Sister!"
Shui Yue'er thanked everyone present one by one, knowing that she couldn't possibly kill this five-thousand-year-old soul beast on her own.
Leng Jun looked at Shui Yue'er with satisfaction, realizing that he had achieved his goal for this trip.
But he didn't leave immediately. Instead, he said to Su Mo and the other two:
"If you don't mind, I'm willing to serve you like a dog or a horse."
Now that the Spirit Hall is powerful, Leng Jun understands the importance of maintaining a good relationship with it.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been so respectful.
Su Mo nodded slightly.
"Since Dean Leng is willing, then thank you very much."
Although Leng Jun is only a Contra player, his ice attribute is very advantageous here, so it wouldn't hurt for him to stay.
Shui Yue'er and Shui Bing'er nodded in unison, both wanting to see if Su Mo had truly reached level ninety.
Yue Guan and Gui Mei exchanged a glance and nodded.
Su Mo is destined to take on important responsibilities in the future, so it's not a bad thing for him to show his strength now.
With their opinions aligned, the six continued to explore deeper into the area.
The depths of the forest were several times colder than the outer areas, and even Yue Guan felt a chill.
