The martial spirits of many teachers were possessed, and the soul rings shining with various colors made these fledgling soul masters feel extremely envious and at ease.
This kind of scene cannot be seen in the academy, and it can only be seen in the dangerous Soul Hunting Forest.
Wang Li mingled among the students, but his heart had already flown away. He wished he could leave the team and go look for the soul beast on his own.
However, there were too many dangers and uncertainties in the process of hunting soul beasts and absorbing soul rings, so he had no choice but to be patient and move forward with the main force.
After all, they are all soul warriors with soul power. Even if they don't have soul rings, their physical fitness is not bad. None of them complains when traveling through the forest, so their exploration speed is not slow.
At this time, Gou An, who was in the front, stopped, and Zhang Wei waved his hand, signaling everyone behind him to stop.
Gou An activated the first soul skill of the white soul ring and took a deep breath. He could distinguish all the smells and the owners of the smells within a few hundred meters.
Then he said quickly in a deep voice:
"Dean, there's a smell of blood. It's from a soft-boned rabbit, and the one that hunted it is a forest mantis. Its age is currently unknown, but its location is approximately 300 meters ahead."
Zhang Wei pondered for a moment and said quickly:
"Su Mo, protect the students. I'm going to control this forest mantis first!"
At the end of the team, Director Su Mo immediately responded:
"Yes, Dean!"
Zhang Wei nodded and said in a low voice:
"Martial Spirit, possess!"
In just a moment, yellow air flowed out of his body and gradually gathered in his hands, finally condensing into a large bow with an ancient shape. Yellow, yellow, purple, purple, four soul rings floated up and down. Being able to cultivate to the Soul Sect and open a Soul Master Academy, Zhang Wei certainly has the best soul ring ratio.
With the contrast of these four soul rings, even though Zhang Wei is middle-aged and has gained a little weight, he still looks so tall and majestic.
He pushed off the ground with his right foot and quickly shot out. He was so fast that he was dozens of meters away in a blink of an eye.
The dean is gone, and the director is the boss.
Su Mo greeted everyone and said:
"Let's keep moving forward. There's no need to chase after the dean. Just keep moving at a steady pace and stay alert to your surroundings."
Whether teachers or students, they all responded at this moment:
"yes!"
Then he continued to move forward. After some time, he finally caught up with Zhang Wei. At this time, he had subdued a half-meter-long green mantis. Its original pair of sharp blades had been removed and thrown aside. Its green body with patterns was already scarred, and its blood-red eyeballs were full of resentment.
Zhang Wei saw everyone arrive and said without further ado:
"This is a forest mantis between fifty and eighty years old. It has a pair of extremely sharp blades and is notorious among low-level soul beasts. Sheng Kai, your martial spirit is a knife. This soul beast is very suitable for you. Come here, kill it, and absorb its spirit ring."
Hearing this, the student named Sheng Kai looked at the forest mantis with resentment in its eyes, swallowed his saliva, and was a little scared, but since he was already here, he would not back down.
He summoned his martial spirit, which was a knife, and walked forward to chop at the forest mantis. He chopped with his eyes closed, and he didn't hit the vital part the first time. He chopped repeatedly many times before he killed the forest mantis.
Zhang Wei remained calm throughout the entire process. These students were still too inexperienced. If they wanted to absorb a soul beast's spirit ring, they would have to kill it with their own hands. This was also a kind of experience for them.
"Watch carefully, the spirit ring is about to appear. When it appears, sit cross-legged and use your martial spirit to call the spirit ring. Then, practice meditation and completely absorb the power in the spirit ring."
"And you, you will all go through this process, hunting soul beasts and absorbing soul rings. This will accompany you throughout your journey as a soul master."
As he spoke, streams of white air emanated from the dead forest mantis, eventually forming a white soul ring above its corpse.
Sheng Kai was overjoyed and didn't care about feeling nauseous. He sat down cross-legged next to the forest mantis and stretched out his right hand holding the martial soul. The white soul ring also responded to the call, floated to the blade, and then merged into it.
This was the beginning of the formal absorption of the soul ring. This scene was seen by all the students. The others were envious and yearning, but Wang Li was anxious.
The teaching team headed by Zhang Wei and Su Mo is undoubtedly powerful and complete, but the soul beasts hunted by the students, the ten-year soul beasts, and the white soul rings are just foolish.
How can this be?
Wang Li was still planning that even if he couldn't absorb the soul ring beyond the limit, he would at least absorb a hundred-year soul ring.
It's troublesome, quite troublesome, Wang Li frowned.
While Wang Li was thinking, in about ten minutes, Sheng Kai had completed the absorption of the spirit ring. After all, it was only a ten-year spirit ring, so there was basically no danger.
Zhang Wei looked at Sheng Kai, who jumped up with excitement, and said with a stern face:
"Don't be proud. Even if you have a spirit ring and can release spirit skills, you still have to obey the instructions. A one-ring spirit master is also the lowest level in the Soul Hunting Forest. By the way, how do you feel? What kind of spirit skills did you obtain?"
Sheng Kai faced Zhang Wei, as obedient as a soft-boned rabbit being hunted by a forest mantis. Upon hearing this, he immediately replied:
"I feel great. My whole body is full of strength. The soul skill I obtained is Cross Slash, which can increase my attack and attack speed by 10%."
Zhang Wei nodded and said:
"It's a very powerful spirit skill. Please return to the team first. We will set off again soon..."
At this time, Gou An came back with a nervous look on his face. He said hurriedly:
"Dean, I was exploring the area and smelled a strong, fishy odor. It must be a wild boar king, and it's certainly quite old. It's probably a century-old soul beast. It's about 800 meters to the northwest!"
Zhang Wei's expression became serious. He could not underestimate any hundred-year-old soul beast. He himself was not afraid, but with so many soul training students, he needed to be extremely cautious.
"I'll go take a look first. You guys follow carefully and don't get too close, lest you get affected."
After saying that, Zhang Wei quickly dodged out. Not long after, he saw the wild boar king that Gou An mentioned.
It is three to four meters long and nearly two meters tall. Its body is covered with a layer of armor made of mud and rocks. Its fangs are sharp and its aura is violent.
Zhang Wei couldn't help but widen his eyes, then said in shock:
"How is this possible? How could such a soul beast appear on the outskirts of the forest? Looking at the wild boar king, it must be at least seven or eight hundred years old. Even thousand-year soul beasts wouldn't dare to confront it head-on!"
At this time, the wild boar king was entangled in vines all over his body, but the vines could not pull him back because of his violent strength. Under the constant tearing and trampling of the vines, the broken branches fell to the ground. The scene was extremely tragic.
