It must be said that after witnessing Oscar's astonishing soul ring configuration, the Heavenly Blue Bull Python found itself more and more convinced by Oscar's words.
Why? Because the only person on the entire continent who could achieve a fourth soul ring with a ten thousand year existence was probably Oscar.
What the Heavenly Blue Bull Python didn't know was that, besides Oscar, Dugu Yan had also managed to do the same.
In fact, if they had been able to find a ten thousand year level head soul bone for Ma Hongjun back then, he would have also achieved the remarkable feat of a ten thousand year fourth soul ring.
Under Oscar's influence, the people around him had improved their strength significantly.
However, Oscar didn't directly give the Shrek Seven Monsters any celestial grade herbs like in the original story because he had his own plans.
If these people were worthy of deep friendship in the future, he might offer them the herbs. At the very least, he would give them the Nine Rank Hunyuan Dan.
Although the Nine Rank Hunyuan Dan had just reached the celestial grade level, its effects were no less powerful than directly consuming celestial grade herbs.
When Xiao Wu was condensing her third soul ring, the Heavenly Blue Bull Python made a decision. It took out several soul bones it and the Titan Giant Ape had accumulated over the years and invested them in Oscar.
Regardless of whether Oscar's grand ambitions would come to fruition, at least now the Heavenly Blue Bull Python could see his talent and potential. Plus, with his background, it was certain that he could protect Xiao Wu until she reached adulthood.
Oscar had previously guaranteed that he would train Xiao Wu all the way to the Title Douluo rank, or even help her achieve that realm.
Actually, just this promise alone was enough for the Heavenly Blue Bull Python to give Oscar those soul bones that were useless to it. After all, if nothing was given, the other party might not dedicate themselves wholeheartedly.
After receiving the soul bones, Oscar rarely showed such joy because the lowest quality of these soul bones was at least ten thousand years, all of which were of excellent quality.
The only regret was that there were no hundred thousand year soul bones among them, with the oldest being just over eighty thousand years.
However, Oscar was already quite satisfied. These soul bones were an unexpected surprise, as he had initially only asked with the mindset of trying his luck.
This could also be seen as compensation for the earlier situation when the Titan Giant Ape had beaten up everyone from Shrek Academy.
Of course, if being beaten once resulted in so many soul bones as compensation, Oscar wouldn't mind having the others from Shrek Academy get beaten a few more times.
Except for Dugu Yan, of course.
He didn't want to see his sister get hurt, and aside from himself, no one could bully her.
Oscar directly stored the seven soul bones in his soul tool, without the slightest hesitation.
These seven soul bones would strengthen his team, and even allow those around him to improve more rapidly. They would certainly help with Oscar's future plans.
However, he didn't know when he would distribute them. After all, once the soul bones were in his hands, he could allocate them as he pleased.
Xiao Wu, being a soul beast, couldn't absorb the soul bones yet as she hadn't reached maturity, so there was no need to worry about her for the time being.
But the Heavenly Blue Bull Python had also mentioned that the soul bones it had kept for Xiao Wu were not among these seven.
This explanation left Oscar a bit speechless. If it hadn't been mentioned, he wouldn't have thought about it, but now that it had been said, he couldn't help but covet them.
After all, the two beasts' soul bones for Xiao Wu would definitely be the most suitable and the best for her.
Perhaps there was even a hundred thousand year soul bone in there, but Oscar wasn't foolish enough to actively ask for them.
He was tempted, but he knew better than to be greedy.
After a while, Oscar turned his gaze to Xiao Wu. She was sitting cross legged, her hands in a flower position, her right palm facing upward on her thigh, and her left hand raised in front of her chest, emitting a series of strange sounds.
As these sounds echoed, Xiao Wu's eyes gradually turned red, two yellow soul rings quietly appeared and circled around her body in rhythm.
At the same time, a massive white phantom began to form behind her it was her martial soul, the Soft Bone Charm Rabbit, or rather, her true form.
A faint red glow began to spread from Xiao Wu's body. As time passed, the red glow became more intense, and the bright red light spread like blood.
As time passed, the intense red light began to contract, eventually transforming into a white soul ring. Over time, this third soul ring changed from white to yellow, and finally to purple.
Oscar calmly watched this scene, muttering to himself, "So this is the process of condensing a soul ring? It seems... similar to the divine soul ring process described in the original story, but Xiao Wu's energy consumption should be from her pre transformed form."
Oscar kept his eyes fixed on Xiao Wu. Suddenly, he seemed to have realized something and his expression became somewhat excited: "This is similar to the process of using a soul spirit to condense a soul ring."
By using the immense energy of a soul spirit to bestow soul rings to soul masters, some powerful soul spirits could even grant multiple soul rings to a soul master. This could effectively stop soul masters from hunting soul beasts.
Oscar suddenly felt that keeping Xiao Wu by his side might truly have been the right decision. If he could study the process and main structure of soul ring condensation through Xiao Wu, combined with his own understanding of soul spirit methods, perhaps it could really be achieved.
After a while, the two yellow and one purple soul rings hovered completely around Xiao Wu's body. Her martial soul also became more solid, and the fluctuation of her soul power at level 31 indicated she had successfully advanced to Soul Respect.
After completing her advancement, Xiao Wu slowly opened her eyes, a fleeting flash of joy appearing. The Titan Giant Ape and Heavenly Blue Bull Python were also immensely happy.
The Titan Giant Ape said, "Xiao Wu, you're one step closer to maturity."
Xiao Wu smiled and nodded. "With my senior here, I'm sure it won't be long before I enter maturity and become a true human."
Oscar smiled. "Don't worry. As long as you keep up with my pace, you'll definitely stand at the peak of the soul master world in the future, and it's not impossible for you to challenge that realm."
Hearing this, Xiao Wu and the two beasts couldn't help but feel a sense of longing. After all, if Xiao Wu could really reach the Title Douluo rank, and if Da Ming and Er Ming didn't survive the heavenly tribulation, she could protect them in return.
Of course, this was just their wishful thinking. Oscar had far grander goals.
After Xiao Wu absorbed her soul ring, she said her goodbyes to the Heavenly Blue Bull Python and then followed Oscar, with the Titan Giant Ape leading them back to the camp where the Shrek Academy people were hiding.
The Heavenly Blue Bull Python and Oscar's avatar watched as the Titan Giant Ape took Xiao Wu away, and once they completely disappeared from sight, Oscar turned to the Heavenly Blue Bull Python and said, "Let's discuss the matter we spoke of earlier. I believe you will make the right choice."
The Heavenly Blue Bull Python nodded and began listening and thinking. After witnessing Oscar's talent, it was now truly tempted.
...
It took about half an hour, and after the Titan Giant Ape sent Oscar and Xiao Wu near the camp, it reluctantly said its goodbyes to Xiao Wu before heading back to Star Moon Lake. This time, it didn't stay behind because it was no longer necessary.
When Oscar and Xiao Wu returned, the happiest person was Tang San. Seeing Xiao Wu safe and even having advanced to the Soul Respect level, Tang San was extremely excited.
For him, there was nothing more important than Xiao Wu's safety.
Flender and Zhao Wujie also came forward, expressing their concern: "Xiao Wu, I'm so glad you're okay. It's my fault for not noticing the Titan Giant Ape's approach. Otherwise, you wouldn't have..."
Seeing the slightly guilty expressions of Flender and Zhao Wujie, Xiao Wu felt a bit embarrassed. After all, if it weren't for her, Flender and Zhao Wujie wouldn't have been beaten by Er Ming.
But Xiao Wu didn't want to explain, so she just waved her hands and said, "Dean, Vice Dean, it's not your fault. After all, facing a forest king, it's already a great fortune that we survived."
Upon hearing this, Flender suddenly remembered that Oscar had said that Xiao Wu was fine when he found her.
Flender couldn't help but ask, "Xiao Wu, how did you escape from the Titan Giant Ape?"
Without skipping a beat, Xiao Wu replied, "I don't really know. There was a loud cow roar, and the Titan Giant Ape let out a terrifying roar, then threw me down. But that roar knocked me and the nearby soul beasts unconscious, so I'm not sure what happened."
"When I woke up, the Titan Giant Ape was gone, and I found a suitable thousand year soul beast among the fainted ones. I decided to absorb its soul ring before coming back..."
Hearing this explanation, everyone in Shrek, except for Dugu Yan, who knew Xiao Wu's true identity, nodded thoughtfully.
Because Oscar had also tracked Xiao Wu down after hearing the cow roar, it made sense now, and no one doubt
