Shrek team members were training very hard. Ma hongjun and Oscar were very close to having a breakthrough. The promotional round ended 20 days ago. The semifinals will be spirit city in 10 days. Spirit city entirely belong to Spirit Hall, it was situated on borders of both Heaven dou Empire and Star dou Empire. The empires doest have any authority over this city because the Supreme pontiff hall was situated in this city. Supreme Pontiff Palace was the symbol of Spirit Hall. It was one of the two most important landmarks of Spirit Hall another being Elder palace which was also in Spirit city.
Supreme Pontiff Palace eas the grandest building in the whole continent. It was the front face and symbol of Spirit Hall's. Common people doesn't know about elders hall. Spirit City is also a sacred land for Spirit masters because of Supreme Pontiff Palace was constructed here.
When Spirit Hall forced Clear Sky Sect, the first sect under heaven into hiding, their strength resounded through the whole continent. Spirit Hall took this opportunity and recruited as many spirit masters as possible and became an organization with the most number of spirit masters. Nobody except the upper three sect knows about how terrifying the spirit hall is.
The journey from heaven dou city to Spirit city was ten days long. Shrek team has to leave the academy and go to Spirit city. Dai Mubai, Xiao Wu Rongrong, and Zhuqing still haven't got their spirit rings and were waiting for Oscar and Ma Hongjun to reach rank 50. At the speed, both will take about 5 to 6 days even with the 24/7 cultivation in magical space. Others were still adamant to get spirit rings together. Tang Chen and Tang San progressed a rank each and were Rank 56 and Rank 54 respectively. Their cultivation speed decreased after they promoted to the soul king realm.
Other Teachers left for the spirit city, only Grandmaster and Shrek students left behind in Academy, they decided to go to spirit city after getting the spirit rings with the help of Grandmaster.
Tang Chen assured them they will be not late. They will get the spirit ring as soon as both Oscar and Ma hongjun broke through rank 50. Due to the constraint of time, Tang Chen decided to let them go to the soul beast area of magical space. He planned with Grandmaster to do the same as grandmaster did when he got his last spirit ring. He will go to the nearby forest, will open the magical apace and hunt for beasts for three days to get as many suitable beasts as possible for his teammates. After that, they will be not late for the tournament as Grandmaster personally carry them to spirit city, with his cultivation level they will be not late. Grandmaster told other teachers to go before them and they will meet in spirit city one day before the final round in spirit city. Tang San and Xiao Wu knew of the plan. Tang Chen told them both he will spilt the group in two parts after entering the magical Space. He will lead others in the soul beasts area to hunt the beasts and get the rings for the group, while Tang San and Xiao Wu will go to the herbal area to let Xiao Wu create her own spirit ring under Tang San protection.
After 4 days, Al last Oscar and Ma Hongjun broke through. They cultivated very hard, they spend their entire time in magical space for a month. Ma Hongjun took long because of his ultimate element, while Oscar was a different case. Though his slow cultivation speed problem is solved, his spirit was still not a top-notch spirit like others who even had their spirit evolved in some ways. They did as Tang Chen planned. They went to the sunset forest where Tang Chen opened the magical space and split the group into two. Tang Chen with Dai Mubai, Oscar, Ma Hongjun, Rongrong, and Zhuqing went to the soul beasts area while Tang San and Xiao Wu went to the herbal area. Grandmaster didn't enter the magical space for valid reasons.
Tang Chen with the group went to the soul beast area and start searching for suitable soul beasts. Tang Chen thought that since they came here he will try and find the most suitable soul beasts for his group since the special effects of absorbing a spirit ring in magical Space was an overall boost to the spirit master and their spirit. After searching for two hours the found a tiger soul beast. It was a called Dark Tiger, a rare beast of darkness attribute which was perfect for Mubai. The beast was 30,000-years-old, Dai Mubai alone fought the beast and killed it. The Tiger soul beasts were proud beasts, seeing only one of a group of six people came to fight him he felt that he was being looked down, so he died in extreme anger leaving a fully intact right arm soul bone. Tang Chen told Dai mubai to first absorb the bone and then the black spirit ring that emerged from the beasts' dead body. Dai Mubai did so, the whole process took 3 hours. Dai Mubai gets the ability to create darkness in his surroundings, in which other than him no one can see anything combined with his domain it was a terrifying technique. His body strengthened and Darkness's attribute of his spirit increased. After that whole group again started to look for suitable soul beasts for others. Others were also hopefull seeing the soul bone that Dai Mubai got from his soul beats. As the higher, the cultivation of soul beasts more chances of acquiring the Soul bone, but only when Soul beats get 100,000-years-old. or more, there will be surety of getting the soul bone. This was also the reason why the 100,000-year-old spirit ring was so special and d.e.s.i.r.ed as acquiring it guarantees to acquire the soul bone also.
After 3 days of hunting soul beasts, the group returned to the forest. Tang San, Xiao Wu, and Grandmaster were waiting for them there. The group met and told them about their gain.
Dai Mubai told the group about his abilities and soul bone. Oscar also told them he absorbed a 28,000-years-old Mirror Monkey which gives him the ability to copy one soul skill of the opponent but he didn't get soul bone. Ma hongjun was also lucky he got an attack similar to a meteor shower, a range and wide area attack from 28,000-year-old Fire Fox. Xiao Wu told the group that she got an ability of the golden body, which protects her from any attack for three seconds, She lied and told them that it was from Soft Boned Snake of 30,000-years-old. Rongrong already had the ability to boost strength, spirit power, speed and defense from her previous four rings so she absorbed the 35,000-year-old Ferocious Lion to get an ability to increase the potency of the attack power of her team. She already has a soul bone so she went for the beast of a slightly higher age than others. Zhuqing also absorbed a 29,000-years-old Black Panther which gave her agility a special boost. Grandmaster was glad that they didn't waste their opportunities of getting spirit rings in magical space.
They didn't know about the specialty of magical space so they thought they only got one soul skill but they didn't know that that soul skill is an amalgamation of all the skills of the soul beasts and not only that absorbing the spirit rings in magical spaces boosted their own body even further.
The Shrek group was happy they all finally became soul king. The most surprising fact is that the eldest in the group was 16 years old while the youngest was 14 years old.
