……

"1.6 million... Since fortune is sufficient, I should give it a try, break through the limit."

Dai Xiyu pondered for a moment, then immediately made a decision.

He first spent 65,000 fortune to purchase Rank 1 Soul Power, raising his soul power to level 20.

Then he spent another 10,000 fortune to buy a 1000-year Soul Ring and stored it in the warehouse.

Immediately afterwards, he kept clicking Free Attribute Points to boost his three physical attributes.

In total, he bought twenty-five attribute points, spending 1.42 million fortune.

He raised strength, agility, and stamina all to 60 points.

That done, he had made the necessary physical preparations.

"Do you still remember that in the original work, the master mentioned that the theoretical maximum age for a second soul ring is 764 years?"

"But if the first soul ring exceeds the theoretical limit, the upper limit for the next soul ring will also increase accordingly."

"So, with my current average physique of sixty points, plus my first soul ring being five hundred years old, absorbing a thousand-year soul ring should not be impossible."

While thinking, he opened the warehouse and took out the thousand-year soul ring inside.

After taking a deep breath and adjusting himself to his best condition, Dai Xiyu directly poured his soul power into the sphere.

Just as before, the sphere immediately emitted waves of light.

The only difference was that the light previously emitted by the sphere was yellow, whereas this time it was the purple representing a thousand-year soul ring.

A pale purple light halo shot straight out of the sphere, turning into a flowing light that entered Dai Xiyu's body.

And Dai Xiyu immediately focused his mind and began absorbing the second soul ring.

This time, the absorption process was not as smooth as before.

He felt discomfort throughout his body, but it never reached an unbearable level.

All the way until the early morning of the next day.

As the sky began to dim, Dai Xiyu, sitting cross-legged on the bed, finally opened his eyes.

He carefully sensed it.

Now the soul power within his body was more than twice as formidable as before.

Upon releasing his martial soul, two rings—one yellow, one purple—rose beneath his feet, rhythmically swirling around him.

Two rings, a Grand Soul Master!

The majestic soul power within him gave Dai Xiyu unparalleled confidence.

Now, even if Dai Weisi stood before him, he was confident he would not be easily defeated.

After all, besides his soul power breaking through to rank 20, the age of his second soul ring is an unmatched thousand years.

Excluding enhancements from twin martial souls and divine trials, even in the original work, no one has been seen to possess a thousand-year age for their second soul ring.

Although Dai Weisi's soul power rank is high, his second soul ring is only six hundred years old, far inferior to a thousand years.

Not only did his soul power increase, but the second soul ring also granted Dai Xiyu a second soul skill.

This second soul skill's effect can last for half an hour.

During its duration, resistance to negative effects doubles, and his attack power, defense, and strength also double simultaneously.

"White Tiger Diamond Transformation."

In an instant, this name appeared in Dai Xiyu's mind.

Because in the Star Luo Royal Family, anyone with a White Tiger Martial Soul, when obtaining their first three soul rings, will choose the same soul beast and thus produce the same skill.

This White Tiger Diamond Transformation originates from the thousand-year soul beast Diamond Tiger, and is usually used as a third soul skill.

Therefore, in the original owner's memory, the description of this skill is extremely familiar.

Upon learning the effect of this skill,

the name White Tiger Diamond Transformation also surfaced in his mind.

"Since it already has a name, it conveniently saves me the trouble of coming up with one."

Dai Xiyu smiled, then sat back onto the bed.

With a slight thought, he opened the Fortune Store again.

His fortune balance remained at 140,000, basically insufficient to buy anything.

At this point, the price of soul power in the list had risen to 100,000.

Dai Xiyu thought for a moment, then directly spent 100,000 fortune to purchase Rank 1 Soul Power.

Afterward, he closed the store and opened the status panel again.

【Name: Dai Xiyu】

【Gender: Male】

【Age: 9】

【martial soul: White Tiger】

【soul power: Level 22】

【Strength: 65】

【Agility: 65】

【Stamina: 65】

【Lifespan: 215 days 22 hours 43 minutes】

……

"All three attributes increased by five points; this should be the boost gained from absorbing the second soul ring."

Dai Xiyu stretched their body, and their joints cracked.

Dai Xiyu opened the window; the sky was already bright.

Sunlight passed over the horizon, dyeing the neatly arranged houses inside Star Luo City half golden.

After the martial soul awakening day, the Royal Junior Academy will have a three-day break.

Unlike in the previous life, the Soul Master Academy on the Douluo Continent has no homework during holidays.

After all, the main curriculum is martial arts, not literary studies, and extracurricular training relies entirely on self-discipline.

Dai Xiyu naturally would not spend time on cultivation.

Compared to the meager gains from cultivation, seizing fortune is far more substantial.

After washing up and having breakfast, Dai Xiyu had a maid fetch a carriage and left the Imperial Palace.

To strike at Dai Mubai, one must first start with Zhu Zhuqing.

So, he should make good use of this three-day holiday to deepen their relationship.

The Imperial Palace and the Netherworld Duke's Mansion are not far apart.

After a journey of several minutes, Dai Xiyu arrived at the destination.

Due to the marriage alliance, the Netherworld Duke is also the only noble whose mansion is located in Star Luo City.

The remaining nobles have their mansions built on their own territories.

In fact, although called a 'mansion', it is actually a complete walled-in compound, just like the Star Luo Imperial Palace.

However, its scale is much smaller than the Imperial Palace's, with only two floors and over a hundred rooms.

With the prince's token, the guards at the gate naturally did not dare to be negligent, and hurried inside to report.

Soon after, Dai Xiyu successfully entered the duke's mansion's main gate.

At this time, the Netherworld Duke was still in the Imperial Palace discussing affairs with the Star Luo Emperor, so only the duchess remained at home.

Dai Xiyu first greeted the future mother-in-law, then directly entered the courtyard through the front gate.

In the courtyard, a formation composed of small pendulums was operating, and a petite figure moved back and forth within it.

The Netherworld Spirit Cat is an agility-attack type martial soul, so its training focuses on increasing agility.

At this moment, Zhu Zhuqing also noticed the observing Dai Xiyu, but she did not pause in the slightest.

Only after completing the allotted training time did the mechanism automatically stop, allowing them to walk out of the formation.

The maid waiting nearby immediately stepped forward and handed over a clean towel.

Zhu Zhuqing took the towel, wiped her sweat, and approached Dai Xiyu.

She still had that cold demeanor, but her gaze was more lively than before.
