"Even more rigorous training?"
Upon hearing this, Tang San was somewhat puzzled. Could there be an even more rigorous training than the Grandmaster's devilish training?
Tang Hao nodded. "I will personally guide your cultivation in the coming days. Say goodbye to your companions, and we will set off tomorrow."
Yu Xiaogang also spoke up, "With your current level, my training can no longer be of much use to you. Originally, I planned to let you graduate after you broke through to the Soul Master level, but now that your father has come, you should go with him."
Seeing that both of them said so, Tang San nodded, though he was a little reluctant.
The next day, Tang San packed his bags and left Shrek Academy with Tang Hao.
...
The eye of ice and fire.
"I'm only two levels away from level 60, should I level up a bit or...?"
As she said this, Qingmu looked at the jade bottle in her hand and fell into deep thought.

What Qing Mu held in his hand was the latest version of the Soul Ascension Pill. One pill could guarantee a 100% increase in level for anyone below the Soul Saint level, but a person could only take a maximum of three pills in their lifetime.
Qing Mu had already taken one half-finished product when he was testing the drug, so he should be able to take two more now.
Qingmu hesitated, wondering whether to wait until the Soul Emperor was making his final push to become a Soul Saint before consuming it, or to consume it now and directly raise his level to sixty.
However, this hesitation lasted only a moment before Qingmu made a decision.
Eat, why not eat?
Qing Mu's strength has now reached a critical point. Below the Title Douluo level, no one is his match. Above him are the true peak powerhouses of this world, namely those Super Douluo above level 95.
Once Qing Mu obtains her sixth soul skill, with the boost from this skill and soul power, she can break through her limits again, truly rivaling those level 95 Super Douluos and becoming a true powerhouse in this world.
By then, Qing Mu could even train with a 100,000-year-old soul beast. Would she still lack experience?
Having figured this out, Qingmu immediately poured out a yellow pill with green markings and swallowed it.
In an instant, a surge of powerful energy spread throughout his body, like a rushing river, impacting the meridians of Qing Mu's entire body.
However, although this energy was enormous, it was nothing to Qing Mu's body, which had been tempered by 100,000-year-old whale glue, two top-grade soul bones, and the black jade divine bamboo.
Just one hour later, Qing Mu had completely refined the energy in the pill, and his level had reached level fifty-nine.
"Still not quite there? Looks like I'll have to eat another one."
Without hesitation, Qing Mu swallowed the second Soul Ascension Pill and began to break through the level 60 barrier.
These barriers at each level are originally quite difficult to break through, because once broken through, it is equivalent to crossing a new level.
However, under the powerful effects of the Soul Ascension Pill, Qing Mu easily broke through this barrier after several attempts and became a level 60 Soul Master.
Even after the breakthrough was successful, a small portion of the medicinal power of the Soul Ascension Pill remained, becoming part of Qing Mu's accumulation.
A moment later, Qing Mu opened her eyes, feeling the level 60 soul power within her body, and the corners of her mouth turned up slightly.
Although the changes in soul power and body brought about by the level increase are negligible for Qing Mu now, it does not mean that the level increase is unimportant.
Even setting aside the acquisition of spirit rings, the improvement of spirit power level alone would be of great benefit to Qing Mu.
Even Solar Beam, a move that requires almost no soul power, is limited by the amount of energy that Ivysaur can compress and control. The more energy Ivysaur can absorb and control, the greater the power of Solar Beam will be.
This is also the main reason why Ivysaur's Solar Beam became more powerful after Qingmu consumed the Jade Bamboo.
While it doesn't achieve the same level of resilience as vines, leaves, or petals, its more robust body allows Ivysaur to conserve more solar energy, enhancing the power of its Solar Beam.
As for Ivysaur, Qing Mu's martial soul, the main way for him to strengthen his body and energy control is undoubtedly through leveling up.
The same special move is easier for a level 50 Soul Master to control than for a level 30 Soul Master.
"Are you preparing to leave again so soon?"
Dugu Bo frowned slightly as he watched Qing Mu take her leave.
Qing Mu smiled and nodded. "My main purpose in coming here is to show you the Ink Jade Divine Bamboo. Now that I'm level 60, it's time for me to hunt for my sixth soul ring."
Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo was speechless for a moment. It was too outrageous. He had only broken through to level 50 a few months ago, and now he was already level 60. This speed of improvement was even faster than that of the Azure Rainbow Falcon.
However, considering how Qing Mu managed to do it, Dugu Bo could understand: a 30,000-year-old fifth ring, a black jade divine bamboo, a head soul bone over 50,000 years old, and a soul-raising pill.
Each of these is something that ordinary Soul Masters can only dream of, but Qing Mu collected them all in a short period of time.
Dugu Bo could only sigh at this, truly a case of the younger generation surpassing the older.
"That's right!"
Before leaving, Qing Mu suddenly suggested, "Senior Dugu, shall we have a spar?"
Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo's eyes flickered slightly, then he immediately shook his head.
"I have some matters to attend to. You should find someone else to spar with."
Dugu Bo would never spar with Qing Mu now, because he seriously doubts that he is now Qing Mu's match.
If he were to spar with Qing Mu and lose despite using all his strength, and Qing Mu were to hold back, wouldn't he lose face?
"Oh well!"
Seeing that Dugu Bo refused, Qing Mu felt a little regretful. If she could fight Dugu Bo a few times, she should be able to gain a lot of experience.
As for Dugu Bo's time-freezing technique, Qing Mu is not without a way to deal with it.
Although Qingmu and Ivysaur cannot break through directly yet, they only need to use teleportation to leave the range of Dugu Bo's eighth soul skill the moment Dugu Bo's eighth soul ring lights up, so as to avoid being controlled by Dugu Bo's eighth soul skill.
Dugu Bo's eighth soul skill is a move similar to his Crazy Plant, which consumes a lot of soul power.
Even though Dugu Bo's level has now reached level 93, he can only use it twice in a battle at most. If he can dodge it twice, then Dugu Bo can only be slaughtered by Qing Mu.
There was nothing they could do; Dugu Bo's most potent poison was utterly ineffective against Qing Mu.
It can be said that Qing Mu is Dugu Bo's nemesis. Other titled Douluo need to be careful when facing Dugu Bo's poison, but Qing Mu doesn't need to at all.
The next moment, Qingmu and Ivysaur's bodies turned into a flash of blue light and disappeared instantly into the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.
