54 Chapter 54: First Mission Reward

Thousand-year spirit beasts were different from ordinary spirit beasts, and Lu Yuan had experienced this difference firsthand.

Back at Nuoding Academy, he had eaten ten-year spirit beasts regularly, which at most only left him feeling somewhat refreshed. But after eating the thousand-year spirit beast meat, he felt a hot current flow through his body, indicating an increase in his soul power.

The flesh of a thousand-year spirit beast carried a huge amount of energy that ordinary Spirit Masters could not afford to consume, but Lu Yuan's Golden Dragon Martial Soul was based on extreme strength, making his physique strong enough to absorb and harness the energy of spirit beast flesh efficiently.

It was clear that Bibi Dong had taken this into account when arranging the banquet.

As for Hu Liena, as a rank 29 Spirit Grand Master, she had no problem withstanding the energy of the thousand-year spirit beast meat.

Encouraged by Bibi Dong, Lu Yuan continued to eat happily, refining all the energy he was accumulating in his body. He felt that he was not far from breaking through again.

Before entering the Training Camp, Lu Yuan had already reached rank 18. However, after nearly three months of training and cultivation, he had only managed to reach the peak of rank 18, one step away from rank 19. This slower pace was due to the guidance provided by the Chief Instructor of the Training Camp, Li Xin.

Li Xin suggested that Lu Yuan should compress his soul power as much as possible before each breakthrough, which would allow him to use his powerful physique to force the widening of the channels through which his soul power circulated.

By compressing his soul power, Lu Yuan could increase its density, making it easier for him to break through the bottleneck of each rank in the future. The increased density would provide a stronger foundation in each rank of his cultivation.

Moreover, widening the channels through which his soul power circulated allowed for greater control over the flow of soul power. This increased control enabled him to better regulate the amount and intensity of soul power he used, making it easier to avoid overexertion. This would also lead to smoother and more sustained combat during battles.

Finally, widening the channels allowed for a greater capacity of soul power to be stored in the body, enabling Lu Yuan to accumulate and store more soul power before having to release it. As a result, he could sustain longer periods of high-intensity combat, ultimately enhancing his overall combat effectiveness.

If an ordinary Spirit Master attempted this, they would likely cripple themselves. However, with his superior physique and actual knowledge, it fit Lu Yuan like a glove.

So, it was only a matter of days before he would take another step forward and break through to rank 19. And he was still two months away from his seventh birthday!

After the delicious lunch, Bibi Dong began to talk about Lu Yuan's future training plan.

"Xiao Yuan, you can rest for today, and starting tomorrow, you will begin your training plan," patting Lu Yuan's head, Bibi Dong said softly.

"Yes, Teacher." Lu Yuan replied.

Bibi Dong smiled and continued, "I will personally teach you when I can, but when I'm not here, you can rely on your big sister. If she can't solve a problem, Elder Gui or Elder Yue will be there to help you."

"I understand, Teacher. I'll do my best." Lu Yuan nodded his head.

"Excellent." Bibi Dong beamed, "Forget about that for now, go to your room and slowly finish refining the energy contained in the meal."

Lu Yuan agreed once more and bid farewell before heading to his room.

Hu Liena wanted to follow him but was stopped by Bibi Dong's voice.

"Nana, come with me," Bibi Dong said, looking at Lu Yuan's back.

Hu Liena could only turn around and follow behind Bibi Dong.

…

As Lu Yuan stepped into the room he shared with Hu Liena, he was greeted with an overwhelming sight.

The walls were painted in various shades of pink, with frilly curtains and fluffy cushions adorning every corner.

Looking at the pink decorations, Lu Yuan couldn't help but feel a little speechless.

Again, why did he have to live with Hu Liena?

If he were really only six years old, it would be fine, but not only his physical body, but his mental age was also much older than six years old.

After sighing inwardly, Lu Yuan took a glance at his surroundings. Luckily, Hu Liena had not followed him, and there was no one around.

'System, open the reward,' he said in his mind, taking the opportunity to see what the reward for his first mission would be.

<Ding, delivering the reward->

Immediately, Lu Yuan felt the same unfamiliar feeling as before, but this time he sensed the unfamiliar energy welling up from his body, and then a light shone in front of him.

<Reward obtained: Second Martial Soul, "God-slaying Dragon Spear">

The light began to dim, and what appeared in front of Lu Yuan was the blurred shape of a black spear with a faint red glow.

'A second Martial Soul in the form of a spear? Why on earth does it have 'God-slaying' in its name? And would its power be comparable to the Golden Dragon Spear?'

Lu Yuan wondered with excitement. He had long wished for a spear like the Golden Dragon Spear, and although this spear was not named the same, the things given by the system should not be bad, right?

However, just as he was starting to get excited, the shape of the spear in the air condensed even more, and a powerful aura burst out of it, spreading throughout the entire Douluo Continent!

…

Angelic Temple

A huge angel statue emitted a strong golden light, trembling and making a dull sound.

Below the statue, Qian Daoliu's face was solemn, not knowing what had happened to make the angel statue tremble.

'Could it be that a divine being has appeared?' Qian Daoliu muttered to himself. Perhaps only the power of a divine being could cause such a commotion in the angel statue containing divine heritage.

…

Sea God Island

As she looked at the slightly trembling Sea God Trident, Bo Saixi's beautiful face showed an expression of disbelief. She felt that the trident in front of her was actually feeling fear!

How could she, who had devoted her entire being to the Sea God, not be frightened?

'Far superior to the Sea God, what kind of power is this?' Bo Saixi couldn't help but mutter to herself.

…

City of Slaughter

The Slaughter King's mouth opened wide in horror, and his two sharp fangs looked particularly ferocious. As he looked at the trembling blood-red demonic sword on the altar, a wave of fear surged in his heart.

His pride was completely subservient to the aura that covered the entire Douluo Continent, as if he had no choice but to bow down!

Even the Asura Sword, which contained the power of the Asura God, transmitted a sense of fear.

'The world is about to change!' The Slaughter King's crimson eyes flickered slightly.

…

Supreme Pontiff Palace

Just as Bibi Dong was talking to Hu Liena, she suddenly felt something, and a black sickle mark appeared on her forehead. The Rakshasa God power within her body became somewhat chaotic, and it took great effort to calm it down.

'What kind of power is this?' Bibi Dong touched her trembling heart, and a shadow flickered in her eyes.
