Lin Yu instantly condensed a ball of fire in his hand, then threw it, igniting the weeds on the ground, and the fire rapidly spread.
If it wasn't stopped quickly, the entire surrounding area would be burned to ashes.
The fire began to grow larger and larger, transforming from a small ball of fire into a raging blaze.
But just then, Lin Yu actually absorbed all the fire back and then slammed it all into the ground.
Bang!
Qian Daoliu was shocked: "This! Impressive power!"
"Or perhaps, Element Control of earth!"
Lin Yu slapped the yellow earth on the ground with his palm.
This yellow earth and his earth-attribute spirit power instantly formed a hard earth wall, rising from the ground.
Qian Daoliu: "!"
"Or perhaps, Space Control!"
Lin Yu controlled his space-attribute spirit power, and the next second, his body instantly shifted about two meters away.
"This is... space... space transfer!"
"Hiss~! Good heavens!"
Qian Daoliu gasped.
Lin Yu's smirk at this moment was harder to suppress than an AK. He waved his hand and said, "Alright, Teacher, your disciple has shown you enough."
"This child already possesses ultimate attributes, and with such powerful Element Control, the might and effect of every spirit power attribute he releases are no less than a century Spirit Ability!"
"This! This is equivalent to having seven Spirit Abilities with just one spirit ring!"
"No! To be precise, Xiao Yu can control elemental power to release various forms of moves and skills. Element Control has infinite possibilities for development."
"He can also control same-attribute power outside of himself. If the opponent has the same attribute, then Xiao Yu is their absolute bane!"
Qian Daoliu was extremely delighted. He nodded with satisfaction: "Very good! Xiao Yu, you have obtained an excellent Spirit Ability."
"Since we have already obtained the spirit ring, we don't need to stay any longer. Let's go. By my estimation, Xiao Xue should be back soon."
"Mm."
The two set off for Spirit City.
Two days to go and return, eight days to search.
This trip took ten days.
On the way back, Lin Yu mused: "Now my spirit power has risen to level 14. Raising it by another 6 levels to break through level 20 within two years shouldn't be a problem."
"And since my first spirit ring is 650 years old, my second ring exceeding a thousand years will definitely not be an issue."
"But two years from now, my spirit power will likely not exceed level 25, which means I will have to challenge and solo a thousand-year wolf Spirit Beast with the strength of a Spirit Elder while I am still a Spirit Grandmaster."
"However, if I absorb the Immortal Herb resources, then completing the first trial will be a piece of cake."
"Heh heh, then before level 20, I'll have the Elders of the Hall of Offerings take me to Sunset Forest and directly seize Dugu Bo's Immortal Herbs." Lin Yu planned internally.
Not a single piece of the Immortal Herb resources could be left for Xiao Bie San.
One day later.
The two returned to the Supreme Pontiff Palace.
Upon their return, Qian Daoliu immediately personally wrote a marriage contract and arranged this marriage with Lin Yu's father, Lin Tian.
However, because Lin Yu was still young, Qian Daoliu suggested not telling Lin Yu about the marriage contract yet.
Lin Yu still didn't know that Qian Renxue had become his fiancée.
Next, he would receive Qian Daoliu's guidance in cultivation. To better receive education and dedicate himself to cultivation, Qian Daoliu had him move into the Hall of Offerings.
At this moment, Lin Yu had already packed his luggage, preparing to leave the Angel Clan Territory.
Lin Tian patted Lin Yu's shoulder and admonished, "Xiao Yu, after you go to the Hall of Offerings, you must cultivate diligently, listen to the Elders of the Hall of Offerings, and don't be willful, understand?"
"I know, Dad. You should also hurry back to the Angel Legion. Your son is leaving."
After bidding farewell to his father, Lin Yu carried his luggage and headed alone to the Hall of Offerings.
The Angel Clan Territory and the Hall of Offerings were both within the Supreme Pontiff Palace's domain.
The Supreme Pontiff Palace was as vast as a small city, and the Hall of Offerings was located in the deepest part of the Supreme Pontiff Palace.
From the Angel Clan Territory to the Hall of Offerings, one would pass through the large training grounds for core disciples.
As the strongest Spirit Master force covering the entire continent, Spirit Hall not only had branch halls in various places of the Two Great Empires but also built many Spirit Master junior academies, providing free education for commoner Spirit Master children.
Those with good talent would directly enter the Spirit Hall Academy in Spirit City for study.
Those with very strong talent, barely considered geniuses, could enter the Supreme Pontiff Palace to cultivate and study, and these were the core disciples.
At this moment, many core disciples were cultivating on the training ground. Seeing Lin Yu pass by instantly caused a stir.
"Hey! Look! Is that... isn't that Lin Yu from the Angel Clan who awakened with innate full spirit power and was taken as a direct disciple by the High Priest?!"
"That's right! It's him!"
"So envious! Innate full spirit power and able to cultivate with the High Priest, this Lin Yu will probably become the number one genius of our Spirit Hall in the future!"
At this moment, a sneer came from among the core disciples: "Heh? Number one genius?"
"So what if he has innate full spirit power? So what if he's the High Priest's disciple? Our Nana is still the Supreme Pontiff's direct disciple!"
"Nana is no worse than this kid." The person speaking was none other than the sycophant Yan.
Yan continued haughtily, "Forget Nana, this kid might not even be stronger than Xie Yue and me. Number one genius? What a joke! Let him surpass me and see? I, Yan, will be the first to disagree."
As the three strongest young talents in Spirit Hall—Hu Liena, Xie Yue, and Yan—they were extremely confident in themselves.
They didn't think they were any worse than Lin Yu.
Lin Yu seemed to sense a gaze and turned his head to look at the training ground, clearly seeing Hu Liena, Xie Yue, and Yan staring at him.
Lin Yu felt nothing towards these three. He glanced at them indifferently, then withdrew his gaze and continued walking forward.
But this immediately annoyed Yan: "What kind of look is that kid giving?"
Xie Yue shrugged: "Maybe he doesn't put us in his eyes?"
"Outrageous! If it weren't for the fact that this kid just awakened his Spirit and started cultivating, I'd go up and teach him a lesson."
"Alright, ignore him, let's cultivate." Hu Liena interrupted.
A moment later, Lin Yu arrived at the Hall of Offerings.
Qian Daoliu had already arranged a room. After Lin Yu put his luggage in the room, he immediately went to a training ground in the Hall of Offerings.
Qian Daoliu was already waiting there. Seeing Lin Yu approach, he smiled and said, "Xiao Yu! You've come at a good time. Xiao Xue will be here shortly."
"Qian Renxue has already returned? That's right, when Qian Renxue went to the Heaven Dou Empire back then, her death was announced. Her return must also be top secret."
Just as Lin Yu was thinking this.
Rumble.
The large door of this training space opened.
Footsteps came from behind.
Qian Renxue had arrived!
Lin Yu turned around and finally saw Qian Renxue slowly walking through the doorway. His gaze was irresistibly drawn to her, and he murmured to himself, "She's very different from four years ago."
