Chapter 25 Master Yun

As Hun Yu made his way towards the Heaven Dou city, he couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement and nervousness. He knew that this was where he would truly begin his journey as a spirit master. After some time of traveling, he finally arrived at the hotel where Master Yun was staying. He made his way towards the room where Master Yun was staying and knocked on the door.

When Master Yun opened the door and saw Hun Yu, he smiled and welcomed him inside. Master Yun was curious about Hun Yu's progress in the Sunset Forest and how he had managed to reach level 40 within four months. Hun Yu eagerly shared his experiences with Master Yun, explaining his training regimen and the techniques he had used to improve his skills.

Master Yun listened intently, nodding his head in approval as Hun Yu spoke. "You have done well, my young disciple. It takes a great deal of dedication and hard work to reach level 40 in such a short amount of time," Master Yun said, his eyes twinkling with pride.

Hun Yu smiled, feeling a sense of validation from Master Yun's words. "Thank you, Master. I could not have done it without your guidance," he replied.

Master Yun chuckled. "You give me too much credit, Hun Yu. Your hard work and determination are what have brought you this far. But now, let us speak about the trial of the gods. Have you completed the first trial?" he asked.

Hun Yu nodded eagerly. "Yes, Master. The first trial was to reach level 40 within four months, and I have completed it," he replied.

Master Yun nodded in approval. "Very good, Hun Yu. The trials of the gods are not easy, but they will test your skills and abilities like nothing else. You must be prepared for anything," he warned.

Hun Yu nodded, feeling a sense of determination. "I am ready, Master. I will do whatever it takes to complete these trials and become a true spirit master," he said.

Master Yun smiled. "I have no doubt that you will, Hun Yu. But remember, the trials of the gods are not just about strength and power. They are also about wisdom and character. You must always keep this in mind," he advised.

Hun Yu nodded, feeling a sense of gratitude towards Master Yun. He knew that he had a long way to go, but with Master Yun's guidance and support, he felt confident that he could overcome any obstacle.

He then asked, "Master Yun, when will the second trial begin? I am eager to face the challenge and see what the God of archery has in store for me."

Master Yun chuckled and said, "Patience, my young friend. The God of archery will reveal the second trial when the time is right. It may be soon or it may be later, but rest assured, it will come."

He knew that rushing into the second trial without proper preparation could prove disastrous. He decided to focus on his training and wait for the right moment to face the next challenge.

Master Yun then asked, "Did you receive any rewards for completing the first trial?"

Hun Yu replied, "Yes, Master Yun. The God of archery bestowed upon me a god-given spirit ring and I gained two levels in my soul power."

Master Yun's eyes widened in surprise. "A god-given spirit ring? This is a rare and powerful gift. Tell me, Hun Yu, what is the age of the ring?"

Hun Yu replied, "It's between 12,000 and 13,000 years old, Master Yun. My fourth spirit ring ability is Celestial Armor, which creates a powerful barrier around my chest and lower abdomen."

Master Yun was impressed. "You have received a powerful gift, my young apprentice. Use it wisely and train hard to unlock its full potential."

Master Yun suddenly asked Hun Yu, "Which academy are you planning to join?"

Hun Yu replied, "Oh, Master Yun, I have already joined an academy."

Master Yun looked surprised and asked, "Which academy did you join? You weren't in any academy before 4 months."

Hun Yu explained, "When I was coming back, I encountered a century-old black dragon spirit beast. I fought with him but lost. Just as I was about to die, an old man named Meng Shenji saved me. He said he was the principal of Heaven Dou Imperial Academy and a level 86 Contra. He introduced himself and asked me to join the academy, and I agreed."

Master Yun's eyes widened in surprise as he listened to Hun Yu's story. He had never heard of anyone surviving an encounter with a century-old black dragon, let alone being saved by a level 86 contra. He felt a mixture of admiration and concern for his disciple - he was impressed by Hun Yu's bravery in facing such a powerful foe, but worried about the dangers he had faced.

He leaned forward, his expression serious. "Hun Yu, you have been through a lot. I'm glad you survived that encounter, but you must be careful in the future. Facing such powerful opponents is not something to take lightly."

Hun Yu nodded, feeling grateful for his master's concern. He knew that Master Yun cared about him and his well-being, and he felt comforted by his words.

Master Yun nodded and said, "Meng Shenji is a powerful and respected spirit master. However, the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy only accepts nobles. But with Meng Shenji's personality, it's possible for him to accept you into the academy. He is extremely courteous, kind, and fair, and he genuinely appreciates talent rather than nobility.

As Hun Yu and Master Yun were talking, they suddenly heard a voice. "The second trial of the Bow God - win the Continental Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournament," the voice said. Master Yun's face lit up in amazement as he realized what the voice meant. He turned to Hun Yu and said, "So that's what it sounds like. Hm..."

Hun Yu listened intently as Master Yun continued, "You should go to the Heaven Duo Imperial Academy and get to know the students there. It will be a good opportunity for you to improve your skills and learn new techniques." Hun Yu nodded, grateful for the advice.

But just as he was about to leave, Master Yun stopped him. "Wait," he said. "You must hide your spirit ring age. Some people might get jealous of your talent and try to harm you. Here, let me give you a technique to conceal your true level."

Master Yun then proceeded to teach Hun Yu a technique that would allow him to hide his spirit ring age from others. Hun Yu practiced the technique until he was confident that he could use it without fail.

As Hun Yu left the room, he felt a sense of excitement and anticipation. He couldn't wait to see what the future held for him at the Heaven Duo Imperial Academy. But he also knew that he had to be cautious and vigilant, as the world of spirit masters could be a dangerous place.

As he walked through the bustling streets of Heaven Dou City, Hun Yu marveled at the sight through his sense and sounds around him. The city was alive with energy and excitement, with people from all over the world coming to visit and train in its prestigious academies.

As he approached the gates of the Heaven Duo Imperial Academy, Hun Yu felt a surge of nervousness and excitement. He took a deep breath and stepped inside, ready to begin his life as a student of one of the most prestigious academies in the world.
