Didn't your teacher taught you?

The people in Heaven Dou City were also extremely shocked, especially Ning Fengzhi and the others.

After all, when Chi Yu first joined the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, she was only at level forty-eight, but now she had reached level fifty-five! And how much time had even passed?

"Wait a minute, a purple first spirit ring?"

How could the first spirit ring possibly be a purple millennium ring? How could a Soul Master of that level absorb a thousand-year spirit ring?

"Impossible, it must be fake, this has to be fake!"

Yu Xiaogang pointed at Chi Yu, his face twisted in madness.

This spirit ring configuration was simply rubbing his intellect into the ground.

The upper limit for the first spirit ring was only four hundred years, and anything slightly above that would almost certainly result in death from the body exploding.

This was a conclusion drawn from countless predecessors who had died from such attempts.

The idea of having a millennium first spirit ring was impossible unless she had twin martial spirits and had reached the Soul Elder level before adding a ring to her second martial spirit.

But wouldn't that be a waste?

When Chi Yu's second spirit ring appeared, Yu Xiaogang immediately dismissed the possibility that she had twin martial spirits.

The difference between the two purple spirit rings was too vast! Such a difference could only come from crossing several thousand years in spirit ring age.

If it were twin martial spirits, the colors of the two rings should be much closer, if not identical.

Purple, purple, black…

Yu Xiaogang: "…"

Black, black.

The pressure from the spirit rings and the Soul King level shocked everyone present.

"An old man like me, a Soul Sage, doesn't even have a ten-thousand-year spirit ring like this Soul King…"

"No wonder this little girl is so strong!"

A Soul Sage sighed, feeling as if his head had been struck by a heavy hammer, buzzing loudly.

Even with her martial spirit attached, Chi Yu didn't undergo any significant changes; she still looked the same, except her hands had turned into claws.

On the stage, Tang San trembled all over, finding it hard to believe as he looked at Chi Yu.

This spirit ring configuration—was she going to rub his teacher's theories into the ground?

Wait, how could he doubt Yu Xiaogang's theoretical knowledge? As if realizing something, Tang San subconsciously looked at his own third spirit ring.

This ring was also one he had absorbed beyond the theoretical limits.

It exceeded Yu Xiaogang's theoretical limit of 1,750 years by several hundred years.

"Could it be that Teacher's theories are flawed?"

Tang San had never considered this before.

Even though he himself had broken Yu Xiaogang's theories and rubbed them into the ground, he never doubted the validity of Yu Xiaogang's theories.

In his mind, it wasn't that Yu Xiaogang's theories were wrong, but that he, Tang San, was exceptional.

"Xiao Feilian, how did you do it?"

Tang San asked instinctively. If he could learn how to absorb spirit rings beyond their limits, his strength would see a tremendous boost.

Everyone's faces changed, but no one said anything.

In the world of Spirit Masters, asking about someone's secrets like this was practically courting death!

Chi Yu was stunned, somewhat confused.

This was normal, as the three teaching elders had never taught her about the limits of spirit ring absorption.

Tell Chi Yu the maximum age limit for the first spirit ring?

Or tell her how many years the first four spirit rings should be?

When a monster was right in front of them, telling her that would be like slapping themselves in the face!

"Tang San!"

Meng Shenji, Bai Baoshan, and Zhi Lin immediately stood up and reprimanded, "This is a Spirit Master's secret, how can you ask about it so casually!"

"Didn't your teacher ever teach you that you can't just ask about another Spirit Master's secrets?"

Though phrased as a question, it was actually a statement.

Yu Xiaogang: "…"

Tang San: "…"

Don't even mention it, really don't mention it. Yu Xiaogang had indeed never taught this.

When he first arrived in Heaven Dou City, Yu Xiaogang directly asked Zhongli questions. He himself was that kind of person, so how could he possibly teach Tang San otherwise?

"This..."

Tang San fell silent. Had he really done something wrong?

Seeing this, Zhongli knew he couldn't stay seated. If he didn't step forward and explain things, Chi Yu could end up in serious trouble.

Shaking his head, he put down the teacup in his hand, stood up, and with a single step, he appeared on the stage.

"Ah~ Zhongli!"

Paimon was taken aback when she saw this, nearly dropping the drumstick in her hand.

She glanced at Zhongli, then at the drumstick in her hand and the ones on the table.

In the end, holding a drumstick in each hand, she flew to Zhongli's side.

"Master!"

Seeing Zhongli arrive, Chi Yu quickly ran to his side, her face soft and shy, showing the full demeanor of a young girl.

This change left everyone stunned.

Wait, was the Martial God really going to make a move?

Tang San had asked such a question, which was practically asking for death!

Zhongli reached out, gently rubbing Chi Yu's head, then shook his own.

No matter how many times he told her, the little catgirl just couldn't change; so be it.

"Little Chi Yu, here."

Paimon handed one of her drumsticks to Chi Yu, her eyes showing a bit of reluctance, but she was too full to eat any more.

"Thank you, Paimon."

Chi Yu accepted the drumstick from Paimon without hesitation.

Everyone: "..."

The illusion of the fairy was shattered!

Zhongli glanced around, his face expressionless as he said, "Taking this opportunity, I will share my theories on how Spirit Masters absorb spirit rings with everyone."

As soon as he said this, everyone's expressions changed, becoming extremely serious.

This was a "Titled Douluo," after all. How precious would his theoretical knowledge be!

"Thank you, Lord, Martial God!"

"Thank you, Lord, Martial God!"

Everyone stood up and bowed to Zhongli on the stage, expressing their gratitude sincerely.

Only a few remained unmoved.

Shrek: You better watch your words!

Even though Zhongli hadn't started speaking yet, everyone had to show enough respect. This was an exceedingly rare opportunity.

You had to know, Zhongli was someone who had been favored by the Crown Prince and became a guest official purely because of his knowledge!

It's said that the Crown Prince initially wanted to invite Zhongli into the court as an official, but Zhongli refused, which is why he became a guest official instead.

Seeing this, Zhongli nodded slightly, acknowledging their gesture.

"The absorption of spirit rings by Soul Masters varies from person to person and from martial spirit to martial spirit."

"There is no such thing as a maximum limit for spirit rings."

As Zhongli said this, Yu Xiaogang frowned, his face becoming extremely unpleasant.

The Martial God's words were practically tearing his theories apart and turning them into dust.

Yu Xiaogang opened his mouth slightly, wanting to say something, but found himself unable to speak, especially after seeing Tang San!

There was no denying it; Tang San's third spirit ring was also absorbed beyond the theoretical limits, breaking Yu Xiaogang's own theory.

"A Battle Spirit Master of the same level can absorb a spirit ring with a maximum age of five hundred years, but for support-type Spirit Masters, due to their physical condition..."

"Generally speaking, for spirit rings under ten thousand years, as long as the body can withstand the impact of the spirit ring's energy, it can be absorbed normally."

"As for spirit rings over ten thousand years, one must endure not only the energy of the spirit ring but also the impact of the spirit beast's soul after its death."

"Normally, a Spirit Master must reach the level of Spirit King to withstand the soul impact of a ten-thousand-year spirit beast..."

Hearing this, Yu Xiaogang subconsciously asked, "Lord Martial God, then how did Miss Chi Yu manage to absorb a ten-thousand-year spirit ring at the pre-Spirit Elder stage?"
