Chapter 168: The 10,000 Year First Ring, the Royal Fighting Team Arrives
In the days that followed, Yu Tianlin kept rushing into the clouds to absorb lightning, steadily increasing the age of his 1st Spirit Ring. After about a month, he finally succeeded in pushing it to the 10,000 year level.
Once Thunderous Might reached 10,000 years, it could condense 100 thunderballs at once when activated, and the power of each individual thunderball was also strengthened. In short, Yu Tianlin's 1st Spirit Skill had become frighteningly powerful.
He tested it in a secluded area. First, he activated Thunderous Fury, boosting his Spirit Power and thunder attribute by 150%, then he used Thunderous Might. The destructive force was terrifying, truly giving off the feeling of a world ending calamity. By Yu Tianlin's own judgment, even a Spirit Emperor with the best Spirit Ring configuration might not be able to reach this level of raw destruction when going all out.
Of course, this combination consumed a huge amount of Yu Tianlin's Spirit Power. A single use drained nearly half of his reserves.
But that was fine. As his Spirit Power level rose, the consumption would gradually decrease.
Then again, that was not entirely right either. His Spirit Power could increase, but his 1st Spirit Ring age could also keep rising. As the 1st Spirit Skill grew stronger and stronger, the Spirit Power cost would rise along with it.
"It seems I can't slack off on cultivating my Spirit Power," Yu Tianlin muttered, scratching his head. "Otherwise, one day I might not even have enough Spirit Power to support activating my 1st Spirit Skill."
Just imagining that made him feel a headache coming on.
It was also worth mentioning that after a month of cultivation, Yu Tianlin's Spirit Power finally rose by 1 level, reaching level 45.
Thank goodness. He had been stuck at level 44 for more than half a year, and he finally broke through.
While Yu Tianlin was cultivating, the Shrek Seven Devils were undergoing Yu Xiaogang's brutal training, running while carrying stones.
Yu Tianlin was honestly speechless about it.
Running with stones on their backs was not very efficient. Zhao Wuji's 3rd Spirit Skill was Gravity Enhancement. Running under increased gravity was far more effective than carrying a normal load.
But when Yu Tianlin thought about it, it made sense. Yu Xiaogang did not know Zhao Wuji had that Spirit Skill yet, so it was understandable that he was not using it. As for why he never asked, he and Zhao Wuji were not close, and it would be rude to pry into someone else's Spirit Skills.
Yu Tianlin had originally planned to tell Yu Xiaogang, but after thinking it through, he gave up. Tang San also knew Zhao Wuji had that Spirit Skill, yet he never told Yu Xiaogang. Why should Yu Tianlin bother? He could not be bothered to care.
Because of the breakthrough, Yu Tianlin took a rare day off to balance work and rest. He also used the chance to visit Yu Xiaogang and gave him a Snow Silkworm, having him consume it on the spot. This helped Yu Xiaogang break through the bottleneck that had trapped him for decades, allowing him to reach level 30.
As for the Spirit Bone, Yu Tianlin did not even mention it, let alone give it to him. First, Yu Xiaogang could not absorb it yet. Second, giving him a Spirit Bone now was not safe. It could wait until Yu Xiaogang returned to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.
Even after breaking through to level 30, Yu Xiaogang was not in a hurry to obtain a Spirit Ring. Instead, he continued pushing the Shrek Seven Devils through harsh training. According to Yu Xiaogang's theory, delaying a Spirit Ring for a short time would not hinder cultivation.
That decision made the Shrek Seven Devils complain endlessly. Even Ning Rongrong told Yu Tianlin she thought she could finally rest for 2 days. Yu Xiaogang's response was basically, girl, you're dreaming.
In Yu Tianlin's view, even if Yu Xiaogang went out to obtain his 3rd Spirit Ring, he would still assign training tasks. Rest was never part of the plan.
While the Shrek Seven Devils were still struggling through training, Yu Tianlin suddenly received news that his eldest brother, Yu Tianheng, had arrived in Sotou City.
Not only Yu Tianheng, but all 7 members of the Royal Fighting Team had come.
Yu Tianlin frowned. The timing was off. The Shrek Seven Devils had not even started their team battle Spirit training yet, so why had the Royal Fighting Team arrived ahead of schedule?
He only thought about it briefly before tossing it aside. A butterfly effect, most likely.
Since his brother and the others were here, Yu Tianlin naturally wanted to see them.
When Yu Tianlin arrived at the Grand Spirit Arena, it was already night, and the evening matches were about to begin.
As he walked through the arena, discussions filled the air from every direction. When he listened closely, it was all about odds and betting.
Yu Tianlin's interest stirred. He went straight to the betting counter and found that the Royal Fighting Team's odds were neither high nor low, just ordinary.
He frowned and asked the staff member, "Brother, I heard the Royal Fighting Team is very strong. Why are their odds so average?"
"Oh, the Royal Fighting Team." The staff member did not even look up. "They're a Spirit Ancestor level team, but only 4 of them are Spirit Ancestors. The other 3 are only Spirit Elder. In terms of Spirit Power, their lineup is actually weaker than their opponents. Logically, their odds should be very high, but since they really are strong, we adjusted the odds down. That's why it's like this."
4 Spirit Ancestors and 3 Spirit Elders.
Yu Tianlin seemed to understand and began to speculate.
Based on their original levels and the herbs they were given, among the 7, Yu Tianheng, Dugu Yan, Shi Mo, and Ye Lingling should now be Spirit Ancestors.
The remaining 3 Spirit Elders must be Shi Mo's younger brother, Osler, and Yu Feng. But from the sound of it, they were probably not far from level 40.
It was impressive that the Royal Fighting Team had improved to this level in a little over a year.
With that thought, Yu Tianlin placed his bet directly. "I bet 1,000 Gold Spirit Coins that the Royal Fighting Team will win."
He did not even know how strong their opponents were or what their actual chances looked like, yet he bet anyway. To Yu Tianlin, 1,000 Gold Spirit Coins was nothing. Consider it support for his brother and the others.
After placing the bet, Yu Tianlin asked where the Royal Fighting Team's rest room was and headed straight there.
Their rest area was not with the other Spirit Ancestor teams. It was a separate VIP section. The moment Yu Tianlin arrived, he saw a familiar figure standing at the door.
It was Teacher Qin Ming.
