[ Spirit City ]

Supreme Pontiff Palace, one of the most secured buildings on the Douluo continent. It has a different meaning for spirit-masters, let alone the commoners.

Unlike powerful spirit-masters, the commoners have huge respect for the Spirit Hall, and Supreme Pontiff Palace is no less than a temple to them.

Qian Xunji was a powerful and intelligent man; he knew how to grasp the hearts of people. Yet, he has a flaw, and that is his uncontrollable desire for beautiful women.

Moreover, to maintain the reputation of the Spirit Hall; Qian Xunji decided to allow a group of commoners to enter his palace and discuss their problems with him.

Today was one of the days when the Supreme Pontiff Qian Xunji would allow a selected number of commoners to enter his palace and express their wishes.

As soon as the session ended, Qian Xunji waved his hand, and a black shadow appeared in front of him.

The black-clothed man kneeled and said, " Greetings, your highness, Supreme Pontiff. "

Qian Xunji indifferently nodded and said, " Did something important happened? "

The man nodded; he took out the letter and handed it over to Qian Xunji.

Qian Xunji took the letter and waved his hand, signaling the man to leave. He tore the cover and started reading the report. After a while, a golden-colored spirit-power appeared in his hand and burned the paper to ashes.

He murmured, " Yu Xiaogang! Dragon King? Ridiculous! " A mighty pressure burst from his body and an angry expression on his face.

After a few moments, Qian Xunji recovered his composure and started pondering. Although he wished nothing more than personally heading over to Heaven Dou city to kill Grandmaster; yet, he had to take care of the bigger picture.

Finally, he thought to himself, ' I will let you live a bit longer, ' and waved his hand again. The black shadow appeared over and asked, " Your highness! "

Qian Xunji said, " Tell Salas to leave them alone for the time being and operate as usual. "

The black-clothed man nodded and said, " Yes, my lord. " After a few days, he passed on Qian Xunji's message to Salas.

[ Six Months Later, Shrek Academy ]

Yu Xiaogang, " Okay, Boss Fu, the three of us are leaving. " A few days ago, he had checked Little Yan's training progress and nodded in satisfaction. Finally, after a year, Yu Yan can absorb her first and second spirit ring.

Xiaogang has high expectations from his daughter, and because of this, he did not let her absorb the spirit rings after the awakening. Although ice-type spirit-beasts were rare; still, they could find a few at Sunset forest. Hence, they decided not to travel to the Star Dou Great Forest.

The story has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.

Soon, the group of three stepped out of the academy and walked on the crowded street of Heaven Dou City. Seeing them, everyone cleared the path and respectfully greeted them.

Over the last six months, almost everyone had heard of the new ' Dragon King. ' Although Xiaogang did not care about the customs still, the commoners would greet him as they greeted other nobles.

Seeing the empty path, a wry smile appeared on his face; Grandmaster looked at his wife and said, " Let's quicken our pace, I am still not used to this scene. "

" Okay. " Erlong also nodded; she picked Little Yan into her arms and increased her pace. Within the next few moments, they rushed out of the city.

Xiaogang took a deep breath and sighed; he was still not used to it. It did not take them long, and they stopped in front of the huge forest.

Xiaogang took a step forward; he placed his hand on Yu Yan's head and gently rubbed it. He said, " Stay close to us, and don't run around. "

" Okay. " The little girl nodded.

Like the Star Dou Great forest, the Sunset forest is divided into several regions, and their goal this time was the outer region.

Feeling the aura unconsciously released by Grandmaster and Erlong, most of the spirit-beasts did not dare to approach them.

On the way, Xiaogang asked many questions and had a happy smile after hearing his daughter answer them correctly.

More than an hour has passed since entering the Sunset forest; yet, they did not encounter a single Ice-type spirit beast. Unlike the irritating little brat, as an experienced spirit-beast hunter, the couple was stable.

' Hustle! ' How sharp were the senses of a spirit-douluo? Xiaogang and Erlong simultaneously looked towards the direction from where the sound originated.

A curious light flashed in their eyes; how could they not be curious? Even after feeling their aura, a spirit-beast dared to walk towards them.

Soon, a white-furred rabbit appeared in front of them, and from the spirit-power fluctuations, it's age was around 1,100 years.

" Mother, this little bunny is so adorable. " Little Yan's eyes lit up after seeing the white rabbit.

Both Xiaogang and Erlong's corner of their mouths twitched, and if his assumption was right, then this white rabbit is an ice type spirit-beast.

' Wu! ' Before they could explain anything to their daughter, the white rabbit issued a low cry, jumped forward, and stopped in front of the little girl.

On the other side, Xiaogang looked towards his wife and hinted to her not to take any action. He could see from the bright eyes of the white rabbit that it is smart even for a thousand-year-old spirit-beast. Moreover, he could sense that the rabbit did not have any malice towards his daughter.

Yu Yan mustered her courage; she took a step forward, extended her arm, and lightly patted the soft head of the white rabbit. A happy smile formed on her face as Yu Yan saw a happy look on the rabbit's face.

" Cough! Yan'er, this white rabbit is extremely suitable for your first spirit ring. " Xiaogang could not help but speak because he was afraid that his daughter would not accept it.

Hearing her father's words, the smile on Yu Yan's face receded, big tears formed in her eyes. She hugged the little rabbit and looked at her father with dissatisfaction.

" Father, I don't want to hurt the little rabbit or let us find another spirit-beast. " The little girl said in a pleading tone.

There was a complicated look on his face, and as Xiaogang was going to reply, his daughter summoned her martial spirit.

Yu Yan's hair and eyes color changed to icy-blue, the temperature decreased, and a cold aura radiated from her little body.

" Wu! " After feeling the cold aura, the little rabbit issued a low cry and jumped out of her embrace. It turned his furry head, looked at Xiaogang, and again back at Yu Yan.

A bright light flashed in its eyes, and a white glow covered its body. Seeing this, the expression on Xiaogang and Erlong's face changed. Naturally, he could see that the rabbit took the initiative to become his daughter's spirit ring and sacrifice itself.

The intensity of the white light increased, and the rabbit ended its life. A purple spirit-ring floated above it.

Xiaogang looked at the spirit-ring and softly said, " Yan'er, sit down and prepare for a while before you start absorbing the spirit-ring. " Although he spoke softly, yet, his words carried a decisiveness.

Seeing her father's firm eyes, the little girl nodded; sat down cross-legged for a few moments to be at her peak condition. According to Xiaogang's teachings, she attracted the spirit-ring above her head and started absorbing it.

Xiaogang and Erlong both were alert and observed their daughter; to prevent any accident from happening.

Unlike other people, Yu Yan's process of absorbing was different. Gentle yet cold energy entered her, and it started transforming her physique.

Within the next few minutes, she successfully absorbed her first spirit-ring. A smile appeared on her face, the little girl jumped forward and said, " Father! Mother! I successfully absorbed the ring; moreover, I can feel that the little rabbit is still alive. "

After listening to the second half of her sentence, Erlong instantly got anxious; as she was about to examine her daughter, Xiaogang spoke, " It's alright, Erlong, you don't need to worry. "

Still, a flash of killing intent appeared in his eyes, but Xiaogang recovered his composure the next instant. He muttered to himself, " No one can escape the destiny? "

After Yu Yan successfully absorbed the spirit-ring, a light flashed in the eyes of her martial-spirit, and it conveyed this sentence to Xiaogang.
