With anticipation burning in his chest, Liu Yuan immediately checked his gains through the System.
With a single thought, a faintly glowing attribute panel appeared in his mind.

"Surf…"
The moment he saw the name of the fourth Spirit Skill, Liu Yuan's eyes lit up.
A smile slowly spread across his face.
"This came at the perfect time."
Up until now, his skill set—Extreme Speed, Hurricane, and Dragon Dance—was powerful, but somewhat limited in elemental coverage.
Now, with Surf, that weakness was instantly patched.
Water-type attacks significantly broadened his offensive range, giving him far more flexibility against different enemies.
His combat system had just taken another leap forward.
"And my Spirit Power Rank…"
"Rank 48 already?"
That discovery surprised even him.
Before absorbing the fourth spirit ring, his power had been stuck at a bottleneck—he could feel it growing, but couldn't measure it precisely.
He had estimated Rank 45 at most.
But now—
After absorbing the fifty-thousand-year spirit ring, he had directly surged to Rank 48!
A powerful, surging energy filled every inch of his body.
"Good!"
Liu Yuan clenched his fists, excitement blazing in his eyes.
"At this rate… I'll reach Rank 50 very soon."
"And then… my fifth spirit ring!"
The rapid growth filled him with confidence for the future.

A New Mission… A New Shock
Without wasting any time, Liu Yuan immediately issued another command in his mind:
"System, what's the next check-in location?"
[Ding! New check-in task released!]
A new panel appeared instantly.
[Check-in Location: The All-Continent High-Rank Soul Master Academy Soul Dueling Tournament]
[Task Requirement: Participate and win the championship]
[Task Reward: One brand-new Divine Rank Spirit (random), rarity no less than Mega Rayquaza ×1]

Silence.
For a moment—
Liu Yuan froze completely.
"A… new Divine Rank Spirit?"
"And… not inferior to Mega Rayquaza?"
His breathing stopped.
Then—
A wave of overwhelming excitement erupted within him like a tidal wave!
What was Mega Rayquaza?
A legendary apex existence!
A divine beast capable of suppressing titans like Groudon and Kyogre!
In the Douluo world—
That was equivalent to a supreme, god-tier Martial Soul!
And now, the System was telling him—
He could obtain another one of the same level?!
"What kind of Spirit will it be…?"
His eyes burned with anticipation.
But then—
A thought struck him like lightning.
Right.
Up until now, he had been using his Spirit mainly through Martial Soul Possession…
But in reality—
He could also summon the physical form of Mega Rayquaza itself to fight!
And if he obtained another Divine Rank Pokémon Spirit—
"Two…"
"Two Legendary beings fighting for me at the same time…"
His body trembled slightly.
Just imagining that scene—
Was enough to make his blood boil.
That wouldn't just be an increase in strength.
That would be a complete transformation.
A leap that would shatter the limits of this world's understanding!

A New Goal
"The tournament…"
Liu Yuan murmured softly.
A fierce battle intent ignited in his eyes.
"The System really knows how to pick its timing."
A low laugh echoed through the silent ice cave.
Without hesitation, he stood up and walked out.
"Since that's the case…"
"I'll represent the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy."
A sharp smile appeared on his face.
"In one move, I'll complete the mission…"
"And at the same time—"
"I'll crush Shrek Academy's so-called glory in front of the entire continent."
His gaze pierced through the endless snowstorm, as if looking toward the distant capital.
Thinking of Xuan Zi's reaction at that moment—
His smile deepened.
"I'm r
eally looking forward to it…"
---
Without another word—
Liu Yuan stepped forward.
His figure turned into a streak of light, disappearing into the endless snow.
Heading toward his next battlefield.
