137: The biggest monster

After Zhang Zhenpeng left, everyone continued to focus their attention on the large screen.

Aside from the very few Spirit Kings and the two great Spirit Emperors on the list, the cultivation of the remaining contestants was mostly between Three Rings and Fourth Ring. At their age, being a Spirit Elder or Spirit Ancestor was already the ceiling among their peers.

However, Shen Guyan remembered that among the contestants in this session alone, three twin spirits had appeared. Two were naturally the two great Spirit Emperors, and the other was a female student.

It goes without saying how rare Spirit Masters with twin spirits are. Contestants like these are bound to attract competition from Shrek Academy and the Spirit Pagoda.

Decades later, once these outstanding Geniuses have fully matured, they will become the most powerful group of Spirit Masters on this continent, capable of influencing the entire continent's situation with every action.

Not only did the major powers want to recruit these talents, but even Shen Guyan yearned to select a few of these Geniuses to use for himself.

At this moment, Song Yuner, who was seriously watching the projection screen, suddenly let out a cry of surprise—

"twin spirits!"

Shen Guyan followed her gaze and saw a female student also rushing out of the dense forest, quickly breaking through the Beast Tide, and flashing toward the finish line.

One could see that she had a slender and tall figure, with long brownish-red hair cascading in large waves behind her. Her skin was fair, and her eyes were large. She was beautiful, with a cold demeanor that gave off a 'do not approach' vibe.

Seeing several contestants surround and attack her, she seemed to have no intention of retreating. Instead, she met them head-on, and four purple spirit rings, symbolizing a thousand years, lightly appeared. Everything seemed very casual.

"Oh my god, looking at her, she's probably less than fifteen years old..." Wang Dongqi also exclaimed in shock. This meant that among those of similar age, not a single person from their Sea and Land Academy could surpass or even compare to the girl before them.

They were about to graduate from the Intermediate Division, so their age was naturally similar to that of the girl on screen.

Information about the opponent surfaced in Shen Guyan's mind: Wu Siguo, hailing from Star Luo, possessing the twin spirits Hell Civet and Evil Eyes White Tiger. She was hailed as a Genius rarely seen in Star Luo for a century, a being who might top the youth genius ranking before the age of eighteen, and also a Rank 4 Mecha Designer—truly an all-rounder.

Her two Spirits alone were enough to spark endless imagination—Evil Eyes White Tiger combined with Hell Civet, that was the standard configuration for the legendary Martial Soul Fusion Skill!

The Martial Soul Fusion Skill requires two Spirit Masters whose Spirits have an extremely high compatibility. When they interact, their Spirits merge, generating powerful explosive force. And Self Martial Soul Fusion Skill refers to a Spirit Master's own twin spirits merging to form a Martial Soul Fusion Skill.

The Self Martial Soul Fusion Skill has not been unheard of in the history of the Douluo Continent, and Spirit Masters like this are often invincible among their peers.

On the screen, the girl's body suddenly became illusory, and a shadowy aura appeared. However, unlike the darkness of the previous contestant who possessed the Scythe Spirit, the aura surrounding her was lighter and carried a peculiar feeling.

As her figure flickered, her speed suddenly surged. Like a bolt of lightning, she reached the team surrounding her in the blink of an eye.

The moment the two sides collided, the face of the young man charging at the front changed. He, along with his Tool Spirit, was instantly sent flying from the impact.

Using her strength alone to forcefully clash against an entire team. This was the might of Wu Siguo, the Genius girl rarely seen in Star Luo for a century.

The Agility Attack System Battle Soul Masters who were originally pouncing on her in that team could only hastily swing their sharp blades to fend off her claw shadows. The disparity in cultivation was utilized to its fullest by Wu Siguo at this moment.

Fourth Ring versus Three Rings—a huge gap in Soul Power was evident. The two Agility Attack System Soul Masters retreated, almost simultaneously spitting blood.

Immediately after, Wu Siguo's Fourth Ring spirit ring flashed. She suddenly split into three, appearing in three different positions in the air. They all looked transparent, as if completely unaffected by force, and then simultaneously began to dive downward.

Her second spirit ring simultaneously lit up, complementing the Fourth Ring spirit ring, and a sky full of claw shadows instantly submerged the team.

Head-on clash! This girl clearly excelled in speed, yet she once again chose a hard-hitting fighting style.

A series of roars echoed in the air, and the leader of the opposing team also looked grim. In terms of cultivation, Wu Siguo's advantage was too obvious.

The battle ended with Wu Siguo's victory almost without suspense. Even though her Soul Power was an entire major Realm higher than the opposing team, they were still a team, not just one person, yet they were forcefully defeated by her just like that.

One must know that in Spirit Master battles below the Spirit King Realm, numbers can still compensate for a certain degree of disparity.

"Too strong, too fierce..." The usually assertive Wang Dongqi couldn't help but exclaim repeatedly.

From the tall young man with the Dark Gold Bear Spirit at the start, to Wu Siguo with twin spirits, these few individuals had sparked Shen Guyan's strong interest.

If these few people were to grow under his guidance, their future achievements might not be inferior to those legendary powerhouses.

"Mm, good!" Shen Guyan exclaimed approvingly while indulging in his thoughts.

'Good?' The people from Sea and Land Academy couldn't help but turn back to look at him. They had almost forgotten that there seemed to be a monster right beside them—a monster who was already a Three-Ring Soul Elder before the age of ten.

Wait, Soul... Soul Elder?

"Tianya... you..." Zhou Hanyou seemed to sense something and quickly covered her mouth.

"Mm... my aura is a bit unstable, but you guys must have sensed it." Shen Guyan's mouth twitched. His current Soul Power had broken through the Bottleneck and officially reached Rank 40, though he just hadn't acquired the Fourth Ring spirit ring yet.

Hearing this, all the Sea and Land Academy contestants present looked horrified. Good heavens, this was the deepest hidden monster in the entire venue... Only Shen Guyan himself knew that through repeated coupling with Leng Yaozhu and Shen Yue, and under the guidance of the azure dragon mask, his cultivation could be said to have advanced a thousand miles overnight, directly breaking through a major Realm.

Of course, the one who contributed the greatest portion was still Leng Yaozhu. The massive Soul Power required to advance from Spirit Elder to Spirit Ancestor was merely a drop in the ocean for a Limit Douluo at the Demigod level.

Considering the stability of his own foundation, Shen Guyan was not in a hurry to acquire the next spirit soul or spirit ring. He would likely need to immerse himself in the Spirit Ancestor Realm for a considerable period.

The one who suffered the greatest blow was naturally Xian Lin, who originally had the highest Soul Power Rank among the group. When he was still in the academy, he was the absolute ceiling among his peers. Even if he ultimately lost to the Martial Soul Fusion Skill of Zhou Hanyou and Zhou Tianer, he never believed Shen Guyan had surpassed him.

But now, the other party had truly soared above him overnight... This made Xian Lin's heart extremely bitter.

As if sensing his thoughts, Song Yuner reached out beside him and gently patted his back as a sign of comfort.

Xian Lin could only shake his head with a bitter smile: "Junior Brother Tianya is truly gifted; no wonder the Shen Family took notice of him."

Shen Guyan returned a smile: "Outside, everyone should try to call me Gongzi Yu."

Enemies defeated by him were never considered rivals. He gave those enemies time to catch up, until they were no longer visible in the distance—
