To talk about Wang Li, we have to start from when he and Dugu Yan were brought back to Heaven Dou Royal Academy by Zhi Lin.
Heaven Dou Royal Academy!
Due to Salas's threat, the three Teachers dared not let Wang Li leave, so he could only cultivate and pass the time within the academy. While it was cultivation, it was more about pondering the use of the Blue Silver Domain.
In a simulated training environment where Blue Silver Grass was everywhere and only Wang Li was present, he activated his Blue Silver Domain, covering only himself and a radius of four to five meters around him.
Within this range, all the Blue Silver Grass cheered and rejoiced, and when Wang Li gave them a trace of the Blue Silver King's life force, they revered him as a god, willingly becoming Wang Li's subjects.
The power fed back through the Blue Silver Domain also allowed Wang Li's cultivation to make progress.
From this, Wang Li concluded that, firstly, the Blue Silver Domain allowed him to establish a connection with the surrounding plant life, including ordinary plants, plant Spirit Beasts, and Immortal Herbs.
As for Blue Silver Grass, he could directly establish a superior-subordinate relationship, making them his eyes and ears, and even by giving them a trace of life force, he could gain their sworn allegiance.
After becoming a master-subject relationship, he could then use these subjects to cultivate, improving his spirit power, mental force, life origin, and a special kind of divine force.
At this point, if someone were to enter this simulated training environment, they would find that Wang Li's aura and spirit power were almost nonexistent. If not for being able to see him with their eyes, even experts above the Spirit King level would not be able to sense Wang Li's presence.
This was another ingenious use of the Blue Silver Domain that Wang Li discovered: when his state of mind was sufficiently peaceful and he could completely control himself, he could use the Blue Silver Domain and the surrounding Blue Silver Grass to disguise all of his aura and spirit power, making him as inconspicuous as the Blue Silver Grass on the roadside.
Not only that, his crystal-clear, transparent Blue Silver King Spirit could also be disguised to look like ordinary Blue Silver Grass, and even his spirit rings could change color, or even become completely transparent and colorless.
However, when Wang Li's emotions fluctuated, losing that peaceful state of mind and his ability to fully control himself, all his disguises would be exposed.
How could this be acceptable? If he were to experience significant emotional fluctuations during battle, and all his disguises were exposed, what would be the point of the disguise?!
However, Wang Li was not worried. It had only been a few days since his Spirit evolved into the Blue Silver King and he awakened the Blue Silver Domain.
Moreover, he had consumed the Penetrating Autumn Water Dew, an Immortal Herb that enhances mental force. Even now, as he refined the medicinal power daily, his mental force was still increasing.
As his mental force gradually increased, it continuously improved Wang Li's mastery of the Blue Silver Domain. He believed it wouldn't be long before he could truly master more application techniques for the Blue Silver Domain.
By that time...
Wang Li opened his eyes, his gaze as calm as still water. He chuckled softly and said:
"I can use experience to quickly improve, and then disguise all my aura, spirit power, Spirit, and spirit rings. It seems my fifth spirit ring no longer needs a disguise Spirit Ability."
"Changing direction, my first four Spirit Abilities have already ensured my comprehensive combat power. This fifth Spirit Ability, the recent attack by Salas, also gave me a reminder: against those true powerhouses, I am still very weak."
"So, this fifth Spirit Ability should ideally have some impact on Spirit Douluo and Titled Douluo, allowing me to have stronger self-preservation capabilities."
"However, to impact Spirit Douluo and Titled Douluo with just a ten-thousand-year spirit ring, it seems the Spirit Beast required for my fifth spirit ring needs to be carefully selected again."
...
The next day!
Although many things had happened recently, they all occurred during the holiday. When the holiday ended, it was time to return to classes.
At the training ground, Qin Ming and the Heaven Dou Royal Team were all present.
Qin Ming looked at everyone, hands behind his back, and said:
"Originally, for the upcoming training curriculum, I would have taken you all to the Great Spirit Arena to participate in real combat training, and even travel to major cities, engaging in battles with Spirit Masters in Great Spirit Arenas across various regions, allowing you to accumulate rich experience fighting against various Spirit Masters."
"However, something has happened, and it's best not to leave the Heaven Dou Royal Academy area during this period. Therefore, the training curriculum will have to be adjusted."
In fact, many of the students present already knew what had happened.
Wang Li's talent had aroused the apprehension of Spirit Hall, and Platinum Bishop Salas, a formidable Spirit Douluo powerhouse, disregarded his status and attempted to abduct someone in broad daylight.
It was Xue Qinghe who stepped forward to resolve the conflict, and the news had been widely discussed these past few days.
Then, Qin Ming continued:
"Because Yu Tianheng has returned to his sect for secluded cultivation, the team is missing a strong attack Spirit Master. Although Wang Li could also fill that role, then you would have no opponent."
"Therefore, for the upcoming training, Wang Li, your opponents will be Oslo, Yu Feng, Shi Mo, Shi Mo, Ye Lingling, and Dugu Yan."
"Wang Li, you are a Spirit Ancestor, and your spirit ring configuration is enough to rival a Spirit Master squad. As for Oslo, Yu Feng, Shi Mo, Shi Mo, Ye Lingling, and Dugu Yan, although you six are missing a strong attack Spirit Master, six against one still gives you an advantage."
"Today, I hope you all use every means at your disposal. This is also an opportunity for you to get to know and understand each other."
Qin Ming smiled. Wang Li had been away for three years, and upon his return, he already possessed the strength to defeat Yu Tianheng. Now, as a four-ring Spirit Ancestor, he should be able to put some pressure on the Heaven Dou Royal Team, and crucially, motivate them, as Wang Li, who was younger than them, possessed stronger spirit power.
Oslo, Yu Feng, Shi Mo, and Shi Mo were all very interested in fighting Wang Li. They were also geniuses, but being overshadowed by Wang Li, they were always a bit unconvinced.
Dugu Yan wanted to be on Wang Li's team, but Qin Ming refused, stating that with Dugu Yan's potent poison and Wang Li's strength, the outcome of the battle would be without suspense.
As for Wang Li, he was completely indifferent. He had consumed the ice and fire immortal herb, making him immune to ice and fire and resistant to all poisons. His four Spirit Abilities—control, healing, strong attack, and absorption—left him with no weaknesses.
He was simply confident!
As Qin Ming retreated to the sidelines, he shouted in a deep voice:
"Summon your Spirits, prepare yourselves!"
Wang Li summoned his Spirit. Under his disguise, his Blue Silver King Spirit was no different from an ordinary Blue Silver Grass Spirit.
Four spirit rings—yellow, yellow, purple, purple—slowly pulsed, circling up and down.
Opposite him, the Heaven Dou Royal Team, missing Yu Tianheng, also summoned their Spirits. Shi Mo and Shi Mo held their Xuanwu Shields, like a city wall.
Oslo and Yu Feng, one on the left, one on the right, one on the ground, one in the sky, stood ready, aiming directly at Wang Li.
Dugu Yan commanded from the center, and Ye Lingling provided logistical healing.
