Nuoding Academy part 7

After he opened his eyes, he saw that both Tang San and Grandmaster were looking at him with bewildered eyes.

"What happened ? Why are you looking at me like that ?" He asked them.

"Little JoyBoy, how are you feeling ? Are you alright ? Grandmaster asked.

JoyBoy smiled and politely replied that he was alright. They asked him if he was successful at which he showed them his spirit ring.

His spirit ring was deep yellow in colour with a hint of red colour shade appearing on it. He noticed that it was similar to the red colour of Power Gem.

Grandmaster was fascinated with it because it was the first time in the known history of the humans that a spirit ring appeared without killing a spirit beast. He then asked JoyBoy about his first spirit ring ability.

JoyBoy had already decided to tell them everything about his spirit ring because he knew that in the future he would have to display it in front of them when facing others whether in training or in battle. He also needed their advice on something.

"Teacher my first spirit ability is 'Strength amplification'. I can amplify my strength upto 500 times because that is the current age of my spirit ring. In the future when its age increases, its amplification ability will also increase with it."

Hearing this made their eyes widened. They were shocked to their very core, especially Grandmaster.

"Heavens, 500 times strength amplification! It's not 500% but 500 times! With this ability, his physical strength should be equivalent to top class strength type six rings spirit emperors.

He said that he can increase his strength and did not mention others. This means that his ability only affects him and not others. That should be nature's way of balancing abilities i guess.

Still, once he learns how to utilize his strength properly and gave full control over it he will be a force to reckon with especially because of his Infinite stamina."

Both Tang San and Grandmaster were looking at him as if he was a monster. But JoyBoy knew that their shock was far from over as they will soon realize the key point and Grandmaster soon did as his eyes suddenly widened.

"Little JoyBoy, I believe you said something about increasing the age of your ring. Can you elaborate on that ?"

On the side, Tang San was also listening carefully. After spending the last few months learning under Grandmaster, he knew how the age of a spirit ring affects a spirit master's abilities.

He also knew that once someone got a spirit ring, its age was fixed and cannot be increased anymore in the future. So, hearing JoyBoy speaking about increasing a spirit ring's age interested him. He wondered if he could also increase the age if his spirit ring as it would definitely make his spirit abilities stronger.

JoyBoy smiled hearing his question. He knew that Grandmaster master would definitely catch on the point about increasing the age of a spirit ring, as he had dedicated his whole life on researching martial spirit and spirit ring. Unfortunately, he was about to be disappointed.

"Of course. Teacher, as you and brother San know that instead of depending on killing spirit beasts and absorbing their rings, I decided to follow my own path and decided to keep cultivating hoping to somehow breakthrough my bottleneck."

Both of them nodded their heads as they had seen him devoting all of his time on cultivation. He even knew about the nickname he got from the other students 'cultivation maniac'.

But he would always keep a smile on his face and always be polite while speaking to others, always soft spiken and never raising his voice.

Even Xiao Wu, who loved acting like the big boss of students all the time would be calm in front of him and politely speak to him.

Whenever someone challenged him for a battle, he would politely decline them, always saying that he has to cultivate.

This made everyone believe that maybe the conditions in his home are very bad and he wanted to quickly raise his cultivation to support his family.

"Teacher after I got my first spirit ring, information about it automatically appeared inside my mind. Here is what I learned from it."

He told them most of the information he had learned from the ring. It also included the advantages of the process.

Even he was surprised to learn that the age of the spirit ring he got as a result would automatically adjust its age to the maximum limit of what his body could handle at the moment.

The best part was that its age was not fixed like normal spirit rings. Instead its age will always adjust itself automatically according to the limit of his body.

This means that when in the future his body os able to handle a thousand year ring, the age of his first spirit ring will also become thousand year.

Hearing the information about his spirit ring, both Grandmaster and Tang San were really excited. But after they heard the necessary conditions required to repeat the same process, there mouth started twitching.

Grandmaster had no choice and could only regretfully give up on researching this because it was simply impossible to repeat this process.
