As the light of the soul ring disappeared, Tang Nian opened her eyes again. At this time, her eyes were as deep as the starry sky, unfathomable.

And around her body, a powerful pressure emanated.

Tang Nian finally became a Soul King.

All the sounds in the Sunset Forest seemed to be amplified countless times; even the subtle sound of an insect's wings flapping could be heard clearly by Tang Nian.

She soon realized that it must be her ears that had gone awry, otherwise she wouldn't have had such sharp hearing.

Tang Nian adjusted her breathing. After a period of training, she was able to control her ears and tail more skillfully.

However, at this moment, Tang Nian suddenly felt a strange gaze staring at him.

She followed the gaze and found it was Dugu Bo. Dugu Bo's eyes revealed a strange expression that made people puzzled.

When Tang Nian turned his head to look at him, Dugu Bo turned his head away in an instant, as if he didn't want Tang Nian to notice anything.

Tang Nian couldn't help but roll his eyes, muttering to himself, what on earth is going on with this old monster?

However, Tang Nian was too lazy to think about it anymore and decided to ignore him for the time being.

With a slight smile on his lips, Tang Nian quickly walked up to Tang Hao and said excitedly, "Dad, I successfully absorbed the fifth soul ring!"

Tang Hao smiled and nodded, his eyes full of pride and satisfaction. He gently patted Tang Nian's shoulder and said, "Okay, I'm glad you're okay."

Tang Hao then stood up and looked at Dugu Bo and said, "Du Douluo, thank you for this time. If there is anything I can help you with in the future, just let me know."

Dugu Bo stood up and said, "Your Majesty Haotian, you are too kind. It's not a big deal. Don't worry, I will definitely return the antidote intact when Tang San refines it."

Tang Hao nodded, looked at Tang Nian and said, "Go back."

Soon the three of them went their separate ways.

They were in a hurry when they came, but it was different this time. The father and daughter had not been together for a long time. They walked slowly towards the outskirts of the Sunset Forest.

Along the way, Tang Nian was exceptionally silent.

Tang Hao frowned slightly, looked at her with some concern, and asked, "Nian Nian, what's wrong with you?"

Tang Nian bit her lower lip and hesitated. It had been thirteen years since she read the book Douluo Dalu in her previous life. One reason was that she had not finished reading it at that time, and the other was that it had been too long and she could not remember many things clearly.

But Tang Nian always remembered that he and Spirit Hall were old enemies.

She knew that her mother's death was closely related to the Spirit Hall, but she only found out that her mother was a soul beast when she heard the conversation between Tang Hao and Dugu Bo just now.

Then isn't it the same as Xiao Wu?

Tang Nian took a deep breath and decided to ask the questions in his heart, "Dad, I heard what you and Senior Dugu said just now. Is Mom really a soul beast? Then am I... also a soul beast?"

Her voice trembled slightly, and it was obvious that she was very uneasy. If she was also a soul beast, Xiao Wu had told her that after a soul beast transformed into a human, the first six soul rings could be automatically added.

So she doesn't look like a soul beast, but she doesn't look like a complete human either?

Tang Hao stopped and took a deep look at Tang Nian, then gently touched her head and comforted her, "Nian Nian, don't let your imagination run wild. Although your mother is a soul beast, she loves us too. No matter what, I will protect you and won't let anyone hurt you."

Tang Nian nodded vigorously after hearing this, "I understand, Dad. I won't let my imagination run wild anymore."

Tang Hao nodded, "You are still too weak now. I will keep the Fire Feather Phoenix's left arm soul bone and the Hell Spider's left leg soul bone for you. When you are strong enough to protect yourself, you can absorb these two soul bones."

Tang Nian nodded obediently, "Okay, Dad."

Although he was eager to become stronger, Tang Nian understood Tang Hao's concerns. Soul bones were too precious and could easily attract the covetousness of others.

Just as Dugu Bo's first reaction when he saw the soul bones on Tang San was to kill him and take his bones, but she is not strong enough now, and too many soul bones will only make her a target of public criticism.

"Don't worry about your brother's affairs. Xiao San will be fine." Tang Hao comforted.

"Okay." Tang Nian responded softly. Although she was still worried, she chose to trust her father's judgment.

No matter how slow you go, the journey will eventually come to an end.

After Tang Hao sent Tang Nian to Tiandou City, he turned around and left silently.

Tang Nian looked at his father's receding back, a trace of reluctance flashing in his eyes.

After calming down, Tang Nian quickly stepped into Shrek Academy.

On the training ground, the master stood aside while Dai Mubai was fighting with Oscar and Ma Hongjun.

The hot flame burned towards Dai Mubai, but was blocked by him.

Tang Nian watched with great interest. It seemed that everyone had been practicing very hard during this period.

"Niannian?" The first person to discover Tang Nian was Ning Rongrong. Immediately, Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Wu all surrounded her.

Xiao Wu asked, "You're back? Have you absorbed the fifth soul ring?"

Tang Nian looked at everyone happily, "Now I am a genuine Soul King."

At this time, Dai Mubai ended the fight on the field with one punch.

The master's voice came, "Dai Mubai is very good. He knows to get rid of the food-type soul master first. But since you know that Oscar's mushroom sausage can fly, you shouldn't let them eat it. You should stop them from the beginning."

Dai Mubai lowered his head, "I understand, Master."

"And you, Ma Hongjun. Oscar is your comrade-in-arms and also your logistical support. How could you just watch Dai Mubai's fist hit him and take him out?"

Oscar looked at Ma Hongjun complacently, "That's right, protect me well next time."

The master said, "And you, Oscar, as a food-type soul master, the most important thing you should do is to protect yourself." After a pause, he said, "Okay, today's training ends here. You all go back and think about where you are still lacking."

After the master finished speaking, the three of them gathered around him.

Oscar asked, "Nian Nian, I heard that you went to hunt for spirit rings. Okay, just tell me that your fifth spirit ring belongs to hundreds of thousands of spirit beasts."

Tang Nian laughed and said, "Oscar, you really think I'm a god. I'm a soul beast that's hundreds of thousands of years old. My fifth soul ring is a hell spider that just broke through 100,000 years old."

Oscar smacked his lips in disappointment. "This is incredible. We are all about the same age, so why is there such a big gap? I really envy your talent."

Tang Nian smiled and said nothing.

Maybe this is the golden finger for traveling through books.
