Going back a few hours, Song Weihan was still watching the computer screen showing Sheng Feilong, Wong Wushuang and their respective teams hunting in the Spirit Ascension Platform. By now, over 15 hours have pa.s.sed since the students of the Heaven Dou Intermediate Academy had entered the Spirit Ascension Platform and Sheng Feilong"s group of 9 were the only ones left inside.

Everyone else, be they students from the first, second or even third year of the intermediate Academy, had already left the Spirit ascension Platform on their own accord or had been forced to exit by powerful Soul Beasts. Still, the last of them to exit was the tenth of Sheng Feilong"s group, the cla.s.smate of Wong Wushuang, who took the full blunt of the Screaming Ghost Squirrel"s mental attack when they were on their last hunting trip a few hours ago.

Night time had already fallen onto the Star Dou Forest, but thanks to Sheng Feilong sharing his senses with Mental Detection, their group was able to see clearly. Song Weihan didn"t expect his disciple to obtain a night vision like ability once the Ancient Hypnotic Toad evolved to the 1.000 year level, it was, however, a quite pleasant surprise. Having someone with an ability such as Sheng Feilong was incredibly useful for any team, as they were impressively demonstrating.

Under Sheng Feilong"s guidance, Xiao Yuewu and Wong Wushuang were able to effectively take out one Soul Beast of the wind element after the other, which were then absorbed by Wong Wushuang. Spending a few hours in the dark forest, they quickly got to the point were they made plans to attack groups of beasts to speed up the process.

Coincidentally, while searching for a group of wind elemental Soul Beasts, they even found a nearly 700-years-old Slumbering Lotus, a powerful Spirit Plant, that was guarded by a rhino like Soul Beast. They quickly disposed of the beast before allowing Su Liyun to absorb the Slumbering Lotus, allowing her to increase the strength of her artificial Spirit Soul tremendously.

Just a few minutes later, they found a pride of Storm Wolves, peacefully sleeping in the forest with no guards or scouts in the vicinity; perfect prey to help Wong Wushuang to finally evolve his Spirit Soul to the 1.000 year level. After taking them out and absorbing the remnant energy, they finally decided to leave the Spirit Ascension Platform, where they were greeted by a group of shocked students and teachers upon exit.

Wong Wushuang and his team smiled before inquiring about the health of their sixth member, while Sheng Feilong and the others didn"t really know what to do. Everyone was staring at them like seeing some attraction in the zoo, causing the four of them to be embarra.s.sed. Song Weihan was smiling widely as he stood up from his seat, beckoning for Sheng Feilong to follow him while telling the teachers to take the other children back.

Saying his good bye"s to his friends and cla.s.smates, Sheng Feilong followed Song Weihan to his office after everyone else had left. He took his usual seat while Song Weihan sat behind his desk with a satisfied expression.


"Congratulations on advancing your artificial Spirit Soul to a 1.000-years-old Ancient Hypnotic Toad. You"ve been doing well in there, though I didn"t expect you guys to remain in their for over half a day. Most people only manage to stay about 4-6 hours on their first try. You"ve done well leading your team with your observations and preparations beforehand. But tell me, what do you think of it?"

Sheng Feilong smiled brightly at his Master"s praise and answered the question without dalay.

"It was incredible! I"ve read about the real Star Dou Forest and the Spirit Ascension Platform before, but really going in there is so much different! Everything smells and looks like a real forest and the air in refreshing!"

Sheng Feilong continued to talk about his thoughts and experiences in the Spirit Ascension Platform for a few more minutes, no showing any signs of stopping soon, when he suddenly realized that he"d been talking non-stop, saying way more than Song Weihan had actually asked about. He awkwardly scratched his head while wryly laughing and looking at Song Weihan, who still smiled at him.

"Sorry, Master, I got swept up in the moment...", Sheng Feilong said, while Song Weihan chuckled, not being troubled by his disciple"s excitement.

"Don"t worry, it"s good that you had fun. Though, there"s one thing I"d like to know. What was it like when your Spirit Soul evolved? I know you were meditating though it, but you should"ve felt the difference. And why were the others looking so tense when you were done?"

Sheng Feilong thought back for a moment, not exactly knowing what Song Weihan when he said to feel the difference.

"Uhm... A few minutes after I started absorbing the energy of the squirrels, I suddenly felt weird and then like I was falling. I guess that"s when I broke though? After that, the speed of absorption became faster and faster, but it didn"t feel like the Toad was getting stronger at all. Is that what you meant, Master?"

"A feeling like you were falling..?", Song weihan muttered with a thoughtful expression, before suddenly lifting his head and staring at Sheng Feilong.

"Use your first Soul Skill on me. Make it as strong as possible and try to use all of your Spirit Power."

Sheng Feilong was surprised, but quickly nodded and two purple Soul Rings appeared behind his back. The first lit up and Sheng Feilong stared at Song Weihan, while his eyes turned blue with a weird fog like energy around them. He didn"t give his illusion any form and just tried to trap Song Weihan inside of it, but no matter what, he couldn"t get a hold on Song Weihan. Still, the latter seemed at ease handling the amount of Spirit Power Sheng Feilong could produce, but his expression showed his surprise.

"That"s enough, you can stop. I think I know what happened now. Honestly, it"s quite surprising. It seems like evolving your Spirit Soul not only made your illusion ability tremendously more powerful, but even enhanced your own Spirit Power by quite a great margin. That being the case, the Ancient Hypnotic Toad seems to be even more powerful than I thought. It"s abilities are powerful, it enhanced your Spirit Power and it gave you a new ability, your night vision, which you can even share with companions using your second Soul Skill. That"s honestly quite amazing."

Sheng Feilong smiled proudly. He worked hard to fulfil his Master"s wish for him to evolve his Spirit Soul as fast as possible, and he made it. Not only that, but he managed to do even more than Song Weihan had expected. The both of them looked at each other before Song Weihan spoke up again.

"Let me take you home for today. Your father already returned since it"s late. We can make a few tests tomorrow to see how much more powerful your Spirit Power and artificial Spirit Soul have become."

A few minutes later, Song Weihan and Sheng Feilong flew towards Sheng Feilong"s home in a s.p.a.cious purple Mecha that Song Weihan had borrowed from the Spirit PaG.o.da. Song Weihan returned after a short talk with Sheng Lingtian, who later told Sheng Feilong that he wouldn"t have to go to school tomorrow. Asking why, Sheng Feilong found out that the teachers had informed the children of the Intermediate Academy, that they wouldn"t have to come to school tomorrow, since they spent so much time at the Spirit PaG.o.da today.

The next morning, Sheng Feilong joined his father to go to the Spirit PaG.o.da when the latter got ready for work. He had asked Song Weihan before if it was okay to come this early, but the latter was busy for a while. He asked Mister Wu, a Spirit paG.o.da employee who Sheng feilong met when he first came to the Spirit PaG.o.da, to take Sheng Feilong for a few tests, including the one for his Spirit Power.

A while later, Mister Wu seemed quite shocked, but didn"t show Sheng Feilong the results on orders of Song Weihan. They did a few more tests before Song Weihan was free to meet up with Sheng Feilong at his office. Song Weihan had already received the results of Sheng Feilong"s test and was just as shocked as Mister Wu. While Sheng Feilong didn"t change much physically, his Spirit Power had increased by over 200 points compared to the last test.

The 10 years old boy now had a inconceivable Spirit Power of 1.209!
