After the New Year, Wang Nan's parents sent him out of the house.
Wang Xing had returned home before the New Year. He was happy for a long time after hearing that Wang Nan had entered the Inner Courtyard, but in the end, like Wang Nan's mother, he told him to return to the Academy to cultivate as soon as possible.
Therefore, in the Shrek Academy Inner Courtyard, in front of the Sea God Pavilion, Wang Nan arrived early. He sat cross-legged under the Golden Tree and entered meditation.
Although the New Year had just passed, Shrek Academy is located in the central part of the Douluo Continent, and winter is not particularly cold. As a Spirit Master, Wang Nan is also more resistant to cold, and at this time, sitting under the Golden Tree, he felt a hint of coolness.
As Mu En said, although the bright Aura emanating from the Golden Tree was not the same as his Spirit, there was a subtle connection between them. Training here could make his cultivation speed a bit faster.
Wang Nan held the Coiling Dragon Staff in his hand, and his spirit power continuously circulated between his body and the Coiling Dragon Staff, constantly refining his body under the action of the Spirit Bone. The Heaven and Earth elemental force poured into him, and his consciousness also connected with the light cluster in his mental sea, slowly increasing his mental force.
After a long time, Wang Nan let out a long breath, slowly opened his eyes, and found a child sitting not far from him.
With each breath the child took, tiny electric lights flashed around him, and vaguely, another aura echoed the Golden Tree from afar.
This child was Beibei. At this time, the Shrek Outer Courtyard should not have started school yet, which is why he appeared here.
Perhaps his mutated Spirit was too overbearing. At this moment, his brows were slightly furrowed, and he looked a bit strained, as if he couldn't fully control the spirit power in his body during meditation, which caused the electric lights to constantly flicker around him.
Wang Nan glanced in another direction and saw Mu En sitting in front of the Sea God Pavilion, gently waving at him. So Wang Nan decided not to speak up and quietly got up and left.
"Elder Mu."
"Don't worry, that child's Spirit is a bit special."
Wang Nan looked at Beibei following Mu En's gaze. He knew that Beibei's Spirit was not a simple Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, but he didn't know that training would cause such a commotion.
'No, perhaps there isn't such a display of power normally. He is trying to transform his Spirit towards the direction of a Bright Holy Dragon.'
Wang Nan felt the increasingly rich bright Aura around Beibei and guessed in his heart.
However, the Aura of the Bright Holy Dragon only appeared for a very short time, and the Aura around Beibei quickly receded.
"Great Ancestor." Beibei opened his eyes, saw Mu En and Wang Nan on the side, ran to them, and called out to Mu En with some frustration, then turned to Wang Nan, "Senior Brother."
"It's still too early for your Spirit to fully awaken with your current cultivation. When you reach Rank 70 and acquire your seventh spirit ring, able to unleash your Martial Soul True Body, you might have a deeper understanding of your own Spirit."
"Alright, it's getting late. Let's head back for today."
After bidding farewell to Mu En, Wang Nan did not return directly to his dormitory but went to the teachers' office area.
Since Wang Nan's Spirit changed, the light cluster in his mental sea also became more active. Every time Wang Nan communicated with it, he could feel a faint will within it. This will seemed to originate from his Spirit, but at the same time, it was closely connected to himself.
At first, Wang Nan only thought that this light cluster was like the "cheat" of many Transmigrationers in his past life memories, that it could unreasonably grant him some kind of ability.
But as his cultivation grew higher and the connection between him and this light cluster became closer, he gradually realized that this light cluster actually originated from his Spirit, from himself.
Combining some memories from his past life, Wang Nan had a vague guess but dared not confirm it, so he wanted to find Cai Meier to verify it.
The teachers' office area in the Inner Courtyard was a bit larger than in the Outer Courtyard. The rooms were made of wood, carved with various patterns, giving people a sense of antiquity.
Wang Nan didn't walk long before he saw Cai Meier's office.
"Dean Cai."
Cai Meier's office door was not closed. As soon as Wang Nan arrived, he saw Cai Meier leaning over her desk.
"Oh, it's Wang Nan." Cai Meier looked up, put down what she was doing, "Have you encountered any difficulties in your cultivation?"
"Dean Cai, I want to understand more about Martial Soul True Body."
"Martial Soul True Body?" Cai Meier looked at Wang Nan in surprise, "You should know that our Spirit Masters' seventh spirit ring, regardless of the type or cultivation of the Spirit Beast it comes from, can only provide one Spirit Ability, and that is Martial Soul True Body."
Wang Nan nodded, he knew this most basic fact, "Dean Cai, is there something different about our Tool Spirit's Martial Soul True Body?"
"So that's what you want to ask." Cai Meier glanced at Wang Nan, "Indeed. Whether it's a Tool Spirit or a Beast Spirit, after activating Martial Soul True Body, one's strength will be greatly enhanced, and the power of all Spirit Abilities will be increased by at least one time."
"Spirit Masters with Beast Spirits will have their bodies merge with their Spirit after activating Martial Soul True Body, completely transforming into the appearance of their Spirit, while Tool Spirit Masters cannot transform into their Spirit like Beast Spirit Masters. Instead, they merge their Soul with their Tool Spirit, which means that the activation of Tool Spirit True Body requires the consumption of Soul power, which is mental force."
Wang Nan understood all that Cai Meier said, but he patiently listened until the end, then asked the question he cared about most.
"Dean Cai, what does the Tool Spirit you mentioned look like?"
Cai Meier looked at Wang Nan, pondered for a moment, then slowly spoke, "Each Tool Spirit Master's Tool Spirit is different. When you acquire your seventh Spirit Ability, you will naturally feel its existence."
Cai Meier thought for a moment, then suddenly revealed her Spirit, a silver-white long spear appeared in her hand, and nine spirit rings of yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, black, black rose. Wang Nan instantly felt a powerful oppressive Aura.
"I don't know what other Spirit Masters' Tool Spirits look like, but if you're really interested in Tool Spirits, you can come over and feel it yourself."
Wang Nan took a deep breath, walked forward, and placed his right hand on Cai Meier's Evil-Breaking Dragon Soul Spear. Instantly, a powerful Aura surged towards him.
The light cluster in Wang Nan's mental sea constantly flickered, and mental force and spirit power permeated out. Wang Nan suddenly felt as if a giant Dragon had appeared before him. It continuously roamed around Cai Meier, and with its breathing, the spirit power around Cai Meier constantly fluctuated.
The giant Dragon faintly let out a roar, making Cai Meier's Aura even stronger. Affected by this Aura, Wang Nan's Coiling Dragon Staff was naturally released. The Dragon head on the rod body rose high, letting out a low growl together with Cai Meier's Dragon Soul.
The spirit power in Wang Nan's body boiled. Unconsciously, his spirit power Rank had already reached Rank 50.
