Chapter 206 Going Home
Yang Podi and the other two left the Sea God Temple and went directly to the place where Yang Ping'an absorbed the soul ring. Now it was Ye Lingling's turn to absorb the last divinely bestowed soul ring.
It wasn't until two months later that Ye Lingling and Yang Ping'an finished absorbing the divinely bestowed soul ring, at which point they finally revealed their true soul power level.
When Yang Ping'an and Ye Lingling finished absorbing their spirit rings, everyone was stunned, because both of their eighth spirit rings had reached 100,000 years, and their spirit power was even more astonishing.
Yang Ping'an has now reached level 88, and Ye Lingling has even reached level 89. This includes the level of soul power gained after each assessment, as well as the level of soul power gained after passing all assessments.
Yang Ping'an and Ye Lingling were already at level 80 when they passed the third trial of the Sea God. The increase in soul power level each time after that was just not displayed.
Especially Ye Lingling, through the stacking of spirit rings, her current spirit ring configuration is: purple-purple-black-black-black-black-red.
Yang Ping'an's current soul ring configuration is: purple-purple-purple-purple-black-black-black-red.
Niu Meng is level 83, and his soul ring configuration is: purple purple purple purple black black black red.
Dugu Yan is level 82, and her soul ring configuration is: yellow yellow purple purple black black black black.
Yang Podi is level 93, and his soul ring configuration is: Black Black Black Black Black Red Red Red Red.
At the same time, the four of them also obtained access to Poseidon Island. Ye Lingling obtained Red-level access, while Yang Ping'an, Dugu Yan, and Niu Meng obtained Black-level access. They were all considered high-ranking members of Poseidon Island.
After some discussion, the group decided to return to the mainland first, go home and check on the current situation, at least to confirm that Tianxing Academy was safe.
This time, they directly activated the red-level privileges of Poseidon Island, boarded a transport ship delivering supplies to Poseidon Island, and left Poseidon Island directly.
The transport ships that deliver goods to Seagod Island are mostly composed of Sea Soul Masters who have great faith in the Seagod. Especially after learning about Ye Lingling's Red-level authority, they all show her extraordinary respect, fearing that they might offend her.
As the transport ship left Poseidon Island, everyone relaxed considerably. The trip to Poseidon Island lasted nearly three and a half years, a period filled with various dangers. Everyone gave their all, training and undergoing assessments, and finally passed their respective tests.
Of course, everyone's improvement is enormous, with the average soul power increasing by more than twenty levels. In particular, everyone's combat power has been improved, and now everyone is at least a Soul Douluo, an improvement that was unimaginable in the past.
The transport ship traveled for a full twenty days before finally returning to Hanhai City.
When everyone stepped into Hanhai City, they felt more relaxed than ever before. After all, they were all land-based Soul Masters, and returning to land felt like returning to their own home.
After returning to Hanhai City, the six of them enjoyed a hearty meal, indulging in the delicacies of the mainland. After all, they hadn't eaten food from mainland hotels for several years, and everyone missed it dearly.
Yang Podi also inquired carefully and found that nothing major had happened on the mainland in recent years, so it seemed that the so-called Soul Hunting Operation had not yet started.
After returning to land, the six were all homesick and missed their families terribly. Without even taking a break, they immediately used their soul power to prepare for a long-distance raid to get home as quickly as possible.
Now everyone is a Contra, able to travel over 200 kilometers per hour. In just two or three days, the six of them have already returned to Tianxing Academy.
When Yang Podi saw that Tianxing Academy was intact, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. Having been away from home for many years, Yang Podi's biggest fear was that his home would be robbed while he was away, especially with the Spirit Hall's Soul Hunting Operation. He still had no idea about the Spirit Hall's plans. Who knew if the Spirit Hall would take the opportunity to destroy Tianxing Academy?
Back at Tianxing Academy, everyone was extremely excited. Yang Tianyue even snuggled into Niu Jinfeng's arms and acted like a spoiled child, completely unlike a high-level Soul Master or a successor of the Sea God.
Tianxing Academy immediately convened a small meeting, mainly to welcome the six people, and also to discuss some family matters.
When Yang Podi and his six companions revealed their current soul power levels, everyone present was stunned, and several old men were almost moved to tears.
Yang Tianyue, in particular, wielding the Trident of Poseidon with an air of dominance, drew even more attention.
Yang Wudi and Niu Gao even tried to move the Trident of Poseidon, but even with their best efforts, they were unable to do so.
After exchanging pleasantries, everyone wore smug expressions and returned to their own homes.
Meanwhile, Yang Podi, Yang Wudi, Yang Zhentian, Niu Gao, and Dugu Bo gathered together to discuss family matters.
Yang Podi addressed the group with a somewhat serious expression: "Grandpa, how has the continent been these past few years? Has anything major happened?"
Yang Wudi shook his head: "In the past few years, the entire Douluo Continent has been unusually peaceful. There haven't even been any major conflicts. Whether it's the Spirit Hall, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, or even the two great empires, everything seems very calm, as if nothing has happened."
"The only thing that can be considered a major event is that the fourth prince of the Heaven Dou Empire died in an avalanche."
Yang Podi was puzzled: "Xue Beng was a prince, how could he be dead? Is there some hidden story behind this?"
Yang Wudi shook his head again: "The death of Xue Beng is very strange. Many people say it was done by Crown Prince Xue Qinghe, while others say it was done by the Star Luo Empire. Anyway, our information is very chaotic. After all, we have left Tiandou City and have not investigated too seriously."
Yang Podi nodded: "Xue Beng was just an insignificant person. Let him die; it has nothing to do with us. What's the current status of Crown Prince Xue Qinghe? Has he contacted us?"
Yang Wudi sighed: "No, since we came to Mount Almo, apart from some medicinal herb business, we have basically had no contact with these major forces. Our Tianxing Academy has a very low presence in the entire continent and does not participate in any battles between sects."
"However, there are still a few pieces of news."
"The first piece of news is that there are rumors circulating outside that the Haotian Sect might make a comeback and re-emerge, but there has been no concrete information and no one knows whether it's true or not. However, I guess those people in the Haotian Sect are also getting restless. From my observation, they should probably emerge from seclusion in three to five years?"
Yang Podi shook his head: "Without Tang Chen, the current Haotian Sect is neither qualified nor has the courage to break the agreement with the Spirit Hall. If they dare to leave the mountain at will, they will probably face an encirclement and annihilation by the Spirit Hall."
Yang Podi pondered to himself: Judging from the current time, the Spirit Hall's Soul Hunting Operation is probably not far off. The only question is the exact time. He needs to find out the exact time, otherwise he will have no way to take advantage of the situation.
Yang Wudi continued, "The Soul Master Competition, which is usually held every five years, was not held this time. The Heaven Dou Empire was quite enthusiastic, but neither the Star Luo Empire nor the Spirit Hall had any intention of holding it. Their excuse was that the Star Luo Empire was experiencing an epidemic disaster, and all manpower and resources were devoted to disaster relief. The next Soul Master Competition will be held as scheduled."
Yang Podi thought for a moment before speaking: "The strength of the first team of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy is probably quite good. There should be several Soul Kings among them. It's normal that the other two major forces don't want to hold the meeting."
"Moreover, the current calm in the Soul Master world is probably just the calm before the storm. Something big might happen soon, so we just need to be careful."
After some discussion, the group stopped thinking about anything else, and Yang Podi also prepared to consider his next steps.
Perhaps because of the release of those secret manuals, especially the blueprints for hidden weapons, the situation has deviated somewhat from its original course. Yang Podi plans to go out and observe the current situation to see what it is like, especially Xue Qinghe, who has exceeded expectations.
Of course, Yang Podi also communicated with others, trying to keep it a secret that Yang Tianyue had obtained the Sea God's inheritance, otherwise it would easily cause trouble. After all, the birth of each god can suppress the world, and once the news spreads, the Po clan will probably become the target of everyone's criticism.
After resting at home for a while, Yang Podi decided to go out alone to see what was going on outside, especially to see if the Spirit Hall had any plans for a Soul Hunting Operation.
Meanwhile, the Heaven Dou Royal Academy is quite interesting.
At the Heaven Dou Royal Academy's Education Committee building, Crown Prince Xue Qinghe, along with three education committee members and Yu Xiaogang, were discussing the cancellation of the upcoming Soul Master Competition.
Upon hearing this news, Yu Xiaogang's face darkened. He had poured all his knowledge into training these students for the Soul Master Competition, and in just five years, the strength of the Heaven Dou Team had increased dramatically.
After five years of training, the Tian Dou team has almost formed a lineup of all Soul Kings. Through five years of hard training and various investments regardless of cost, the strength of all members has been greatly improved.
Dai Mubai, Oscar, Ma Hongjun, Ning Rongrong, and Zhu Zhuqing have all reached the Soul King realm after five years of hard training. Even Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing, who originally had the lowest soul power, have now just entered the Soul King realm. Together with Tailong and Bai Xiaofei, they form a lineup of seven Soul Kings.
Yu Xiaogang originally wanted to try, but the news he received was that neither the Star Luo Empire nor the Spirit Hall had any intention of holding the Soul Master Competition. It should be noted that each Soul Master Competition requires a huge investment of manpower and resources, and now only the weakest of the three major powers, the Heaven Dou Empire, is able to hold it normally.
Unexpectedly, just a few days after Yang Podi returned home, Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo came to visit him together, and they were visiting his grandfather Yang Wudi and Dugu Bo. It seems that the group had a pretty good relationship.
Yang Podi was puzzled. The Spirit Hall was four or five thousand kilometers away from Mount Almo. Why would these two people suddenly come to visit?
However, according to his father Yang Zhentian, Chrysanthemum Douluo himself has visited many times in the past few years, mainly to communicate with his grandfather Yang Wudi and Dugu Bo about some things related to flowers and plants. It was like they became friends after a fight. This was Ghost Douluo's first visit.
