"Absorption complete!"
After a hard-fought battle, Mukade, a ten-meter-long centipede, was easily defeated by Zhou Sidong.
After successively absorbing two thousand-year Soul Rings, Zhou Sidong's Soul Power finally settled at level twenty-four.
First Soul Skill: Crescent Moon.
Second Soul Skill: Hundred Beguiling Spider Shadows.
Using the green spears formed by Zhou Sidong's hands as the main attack, hundreds of illusory emerald spears materialized. Each spear was filled with an evil aura, and upon impact, it could cause the opponent's wound to fester, ultimately leading to death. It was truly a formidable Soul Skill.
It was fortunate that this wasn't Douluo Continent II, otherwise, Zhou Sidong would definitely be branded as a "邪魂师" (Evil Soul Master).
Zhou Sidong returned to the camp safely within the allotted time.
The paused time resumed its flow, and the patrolling father, unaware of what had just transpired, resumed his vigilant watch.
Zhou Shijie glanced at his sleeping son inside the tent, a smile playing on his lips.
The next morning, father and son emerged from the forest.
Last night, a small incident occurred: Zhou Sidong was sleeping soundly when a three-hundred-year-old unicorn lizard attacked the camp.
However, Zhou Shijie intervened, leaving the lizard barely alive.
Naturally, a Soul Ring was obtained.
Zhou Sidong had originally planned to find an excuse the next day, but this situation just presented itself.
Feigning absorption, a few streaks of pain flashed across Zhou Sidong's face, scaring Zhou Shijie.
The moment the Soul Ring vanished, Zhou Sidong revealed the Soul Devouring Spider's first Soul Ring.
Under Xiao Xue's perfect cover, Zhou Sidong could only display a single hundred-year Soul Ring, with Soul Power at level twelve (twenty-four).
The father and son spent a day returning to Notting City.
With two days until the start of school, Zhou Sidong abandoned his original training plan. He was brewing his emotions; he was about to meet Tang San and Yu Xiaogang, and it would be a lie to say he wasn't nervous.
Two days later, Notting Elementary Soul Master Academy officially opened.
Zhou Sidong got up early and, led by his father, headed towards Notting Elementary Soul Master Academy.
Originally, Zhou Sidong planned to go alone, but his father wouldn't allow it no matter what.
To ensure his son's safety, Zhou Shijie had gone to great lengths.
\n\n
Notting Elementary Soul Master Academy covered a vast area. Before the iron gate guarded by a gatekeeper, whose job was to determine if they can enter, stood a marble wall. One after another, the new students were confirmed by the gatekeeper. Then, under the reluctant gazes of their parents, the children filed in, officially becoming students of Notting Elementary Soul Master Academy.
"Don't cause trouble at the academy, and don't go against the teachers. You need to thoroughly understand what your parents have taught you. This Notting Elementary Soul Master Academy is just a buffer. We'll be moving in a few years." Zhou Shijie didn't forget to remind him.
"Moving?" Zhou Sidong tilted his head and asked, "Where are we moving to?"
"That's a secret." Zhou Shijie smiled slightly and said no more.
"Hmph!" Zhou Sidong snorted.
However, he knew that as soon as he graduated from Notting Elementary Soul Master Academy, their family would move to Heaven Dou City.
This was news Tang San had gleaned from eavesdropping on Xiao Xue a few days ago.
"So it's Master Zhou! What a rare guest! And this must be your esteemed son. Truly, a man of fine bearing."
The gatekeeper smiled obsequiously.
Zhou Sidong watched the man, who had been expressionless moments before, now grin like a chrysanthemum.
Speak to people as people, and to ghosts as ghosts.
No wonder you're courting death. People like Tang San and Old Jack weren't taken seriously by the gatekeeper for a reason.
Zhou Shijie nodded to the gatekeeper, then instructed, "Let's go inside, son."
After embracing his father, Zhou Sidong departed under his father's gaze. His father kept looking at his son, reluctant to see him go.
During the six years since they'd unearthed him from the tomb and raised him, the couple had always treated Zhou Sidong as their own.
Now, this brief parting unexpectedly brought tears to the eyes of this iron-willed man.
"First, I need to report to the Academic Affairs Office, and then go to the dormitory."
"Academic Affairs Office, Academic Affairs Office... it's here!"
The academy was a maze, but thankfully there were signposts.
Not far from the main gate, Zhou Sidong managed to find the path to the Academic Affairs Office.
However, on the way, he bumped into a man dressed in black, with a buzz cut, a stiff expression, and a scruffy beard.
"Could this person be..." Zhou Sidong took a closer look, and perhaps he already knew who this man was.
"Child, you're a new student this year, right? Could you let me see your Soul Master Handbook?" The buzz-cut man forced a difficult smile, which looked even more painful than crying.
Zhou Sidong's eyelids twitched. It's really him!
His mother's ex-boyfriend, the disgrace of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, the self-proclaimed theory master, Yu Xiaogang.
"Sir, are you a teacher at this academy?" Zhou Sidong asked.
"Me?"
Yu Xiaogang was slightly taken aback, then smiled. "I'm not a teacher at this academy. I'm just a freeloader. Everyone calls me Master, you can call me that too."
With that, Yu Xiaogang took Zhou Sidong's Soul Master Handbook. After confirming it was correct, Yu Xiaogang examined it carefully.
As expected, Yu Xiaogang's fingers, holding the handbook, tightened slightly, causing the edges to wrinkle.
Everything was seen by Zhou Sidong. At that moment, Yu Xiaogang's eyes gradually turned red, and a hint of joy surged into his heart.
He immediately squatted down and asked, "You're Zhou Sidong, right? I wonder, are you willing to become my disciple?"
Sure enough, he was targeted by Yu Xiaogang.
Flies don't bite seamless eggs, and Zhou Sidong, a child with Innate Soul Power of level eight, was a hot commodity in front of Yu Xiaogang.
To be honest, Zhou Sidong looked down on Yu Xiaogang.
This old man, only twenty-nine Soul Power, over fifty years old, after being with his own mother, the two separated because of his father; after that, this Yu Xiaogang, who knows what kind of luck he had, was actually mixed up with his cousin.
At the time of their marriage, when his second uncle exposed their identities, Yu Xiaogang collapsed!
Zhou Sidong knew the subsequent events very clearly.
In Zhou Sidong's understanding of Yu Xiaogang, he was just a man who sought fame and reputation, a "scumbag" who valued face above all else!
Just as Zhou Sidong was about to speak, the gatekeeper's voice suddenly came from not far away: "What Holy Soul Village? I think it's a beggar's village! And Innate Full Soul Power? I've been a gatekeeper for so many years and have never seen Blue Silver Grass with Innate Full Soul Power."
These words reached Yu Xiaogang's ears, and he immediately perked up, returning the Soul Master's Handbook to Zhou Sidong's hand, and ran towards the gatekeeper at lightning speed, afraid that the meat in his mouth would slip away if he was careless.
Seeing Yu Xiaogang's behavior, Zhou Sidong scoffed at him.
"Bah! Scumbag!"
