Don't Bully the Poor Youth: Terrifying, terrifying.
Truth-Seeker: 666, how on earth did he come up with this?
Wu Tong couldn't help but speak up. This department head's creativity was simply too outrageous. What was originally a perfectly serious Body-type Martial Spirit had been twisted into something so bizarre that it begged to be roasted.
Dragon King Sprays Water: Who knows? A perfectly good Body-type Martial Spirit was turned into a social-death tool by that idiot department head.
Dragon King Sprays Water: It's not just the first spirit ability, "Tyrant Song's Eye"—the other two abilities are equally hard to describe.
Dragon King Sprays Water: Now, everyone in the department lowers their heads and runs when they see him, too scared to even make eye contact.
Dragon King Sprays Water: And he's not the only one. Some of his teammates have also come up with equally questionable Martial Spirits, like the Niangni Spring Martial Spirit, Random Curse Generator Martial Spirit, Gender-Swap Ray Martial Spirit, Mother-Child River Martial Spirit...
Dragon King Sprays Water: While their strength is debatable, they're undeniably disgusting.
Truth-Seeker: Insane, absolutely insane. When it comes to bizarre Martial Spirits, Earth's creativity accounts for half.
Truth-Seeker: Bow-down-in-awe.jpg
Don't Bully the Poor Youth: Modern folks really have bigger imaginations than us.
Don't Bully the Poor Youth: Sigh, my clansmen lack creativity. If their minds aren't bold enough, how can they awaken powerful Martial Spirits?
Don't Bully the Poor Youth: I've helped ten people awaken their Martial Spirits, and most ended up with basic weapons like swords or staffs. The best one was an Alchemy Pill Martial Spirit.
Don't Bully the Poor Youth: Guess I'll have to broaden their horizons before awakening the rest.
Skybase King: The little angels' Martial Spirits aren't bad. As expected of a system tied to mental attributes—many awakened suitable ones.
Skybase King: Like spatial wormholes, Sky Blade battleships, celestial supercomputers, stellar bodies...
Fallen Lazy Angel: Hey hey, now you're just exaggerating. What's this about stellar bodies?
Fallen Lazy Angel: Don't tell me it's literally a sun?
Skybase King: Bingo.
Seeing the disbelief on Gabriel's face, He Xi chuckled. Was this really so shocking? She hadn't even mentioned the Black Hole Martial Spirit yet. Let alone hypothetical tech like Perpetual Motion Machine Martial Spirit, Neutron Battleship Martial Spirit, or Dimensional Weapon Martial Spirit...
(Don't say these are too overpowered. Compared to what others in the group have awakened, the gap is still huge. By the late stages, a fully grown Spirit Ring Master can casually manipulate dimensions or create black holes... These are just early-game advantages and become obsolete later.)
...
Wu Tong was about to chime in when a strange sensation suddenly crept over his body—as if something was tickling his nose, making him want to sneeze.
Achoo!
The sneeze confirmed it wasn't his imagination. With a resigned sigh, he opened his eyes and glared at the prankster before him.
"Elysia, you'd better have a good reason for this, or you're in trouble."
"Ehe~" Elysia quickly hid the object behind her back, sticking out her tongue innocently.
Though she moved fast, Wu Tong still caught a glimpse of it—a common weed called green bristlegrass, also known as dog-tail grass.
Thunk.
Wu Tong had no patience for her antics. The moment he heard that "ehe," he knew she was just here to mess with him. Without hesitation, he flicked her forehead.
"Ow! That hurt!"
Elysia clutched her head, pouting dramatically.
"Enough acting. Done sightseeing? Or did you just come to interrupt my nap?" Wu Tong rolled his eyes.
Elysia grinned. "Oh, we're far from done, but we can't delay your plans either. This place isn't going anywhere—business first!"
"Speaking of, what are you here for?"
Wu Tong didn't beat around the bush. "Relocating the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well."
"Relocating?" Elysia's eyes sparkled as she tapped her lips excitedly. "To the academy?"
Wu Tong nodded. "Mhm."
"That's wonderful! Now we can enjoy this view back home too." Elysia's smile curved like a crescent moon.
Wu Tong didn't respond this time. Instead, he stood, brushed the leaves off his clothes, and walked to the edge of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
The others, sensing his intent, gathered beside Elysia, watching curiously as Wu Tong began his work.
Hum—
His restrained perception surged outward, probing the depths below. Within moments, it locked onto his target: the remains of the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings.
Four thousand meters beneath the well, the two dragons' bones lay dormant, their immense elemental energy still radiating, reshaping the surroundings.
"About four kilometers deep, with an affected radius of roughly one kilometer. Simpler than expected."
Withdrawing his perception, Wu Tong activated the Authority of the Herrscher of the Void.
Crack—
Crack—
The crisp sounds of fracturing space alerted the group. Unnoticed, Wu Tong had already encased the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and its surroundings within a spatial barrier.
The cold, razor-sharp walls sliced deep into the earth, carving out a perfect square. The barriers continued descending until they reached the four-kilometer mark, where they abruptly halted.
Then, four beams of light flashed from the depths, converging horizontally toward the dragons' remains.
