Xingluo City, Zhu Mansion.

As soon as Zhu Zhuqing returned home, she saw her sister Zhu Zhuyun standing in the yard.

"Sister?" Zhu Zhuqing was stunned. Before she could say anything, Zhu Zhuyun hugged her.

"I'm sorry... I'm sorry, Zhuqing. It's my fault. I hurt you." Zhu Zhuyun said softly with tears in her eyes.

"Sister..." Zhu Zhuqing's eyes instantly turned red, and two lines of tears flowed down, "I really don't want to fight with you, and I don't want to be a queen."

"I know, I know, it's all my fault." Zhu Zhuyun loosened her arms and looked at her crying sister in front of her, feeling extremely guilty.

"The Third Prince has taken the initiative to change his ways and cut off all ties with you. You don't have to do the same thing again, and you don't have to put yourself in a difficult position anymore."

Zhu Zhuqing shook her head. "No, as long as I follow the family inheritance path, there is always the possibility of establishing a martial soul connection with the royal family, so I must take another path."

"No!" Zhu Zhuyun said, "The choice of soul skills is a matter of life and death. How can you do it carelessly? There is no one in the Dai family who can form a martial soul connection with you now. Why take the risk of the unknown?"

"What about the future?" Zhu Zhuqing asked. "The Dai family still has several children under the age of six. They will all undergo spirit awakening in the future. Not to mention that His Majesty the Emperor can't have only these few descendants. I don't want to be inexplicably dragged into this damn tradition one day."

"Even if there is, it's nothing." Zhu Zhuyun continued to persuade, "With Weiss's talent and such a huge age gap, no one can shake his position. You really don't need to worry about it."

"No." Zhu Zhuqing shook her head firmly. "I don't want to have anything to do with this tradition anymore. Besides, I want to forge my own path. Maybe I can create a new path for our Zhu family. That way, future Zhu family members will have more options and won't have to be caught up in the traditional life-and-death struggle."

"It's not that easy to blaze a new trail. You are sacrificing your own future!" Zhu Zhuyun was a little anxious.

She didn't expect that the change in her attitude during this period would cause such a huge psychological trauma to her sister. She would rather ruin her own future than completely escape from this damn tradition.

"Yes, tradition..." Zhu Zhuyun suddenly thought of something, "We can go find father together and ask him to abolish this damn tradition."

"Sister, it's useless." Zhu Zhuqing shook her head and said, "The key to this tradition lies not in our Zhu family, but in the royal family."

Zhu Zhuyun was silent, her lips trembling slightly, and a great sense of guilt enveloped her heart.

What had she done? She alienated her own sister just because of a tradition, and made her decide to go down a path of no return.

Yes, Zhu Zhuyun believed that the Third Prince Dai Mubai chose his second soul skill at random. She felt that her sister would also choose a second soul skill at random in the future to completely cut off the possibility of fusing with the Netherworld White Tiger.

But Zhu Zhuqing did not choose randomly, she came prepared.

"Sister, we actually met a very powerful person this time. The Third Prince's soul skills were recommended by him. I also plan to obtain soul rings according to his instructions. We don't want to waste our talents, but we want to forge our own path, a path that is not bound by the constraints of the family."

"A very powerful person?" Zhu Zhuyun was skeptical.

"Yes, you can ask Uncle Chen. You won't disbelieve what he says, right?"

"...I will go to him to find out the situation later. If that person is really as powerful as you said, I will allow you to obtain the first soul ring according to your own ideas." Zhu Zhuyun hesitated for a while, and finally gave in.

"Thank you, sister." Zhu Zhuqing smiled happily.

"I should thank you." Zhu Zhuyun stroked Zhu Zhuqing's hair. "I think you've been wronged recently. Come on, I'll take you to eat something delicious. Weiss is hosting a banquet tonight."

"Will there be any fish at the feast?"

"Of course, even if there isn't any, I can have it made."

"Sister is so nice..."

……

...Nottingham College.

Inside the master's room, Chen Feng had just finished learning about soul beasts today.

He looked at the master who was drinking water from the cup behind the desk and asked:
"Master, do you know much about the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family?"

The master paused while drinking, put down the cup, and asked calmly:
"Why do you ask about this?"

"It's like this. I have a guess and I want to verify it by understanding some information about the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family. I wonder if you can answer it for me." Chen Feng said.

The master was silent for a moment. "What do you want to ask?"

"I want to ask." Chen Feng leaned forward slightly, "Is it true that members of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family can only hunt the spirit rings of sub-dragon spirit beasts?"

"Your question is a bit vague." The master said calmly, "Not all members of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family possess the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex martial spirit. The two should be considered separately.

"People without the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex martial spirit can choose other spirit rings, but Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex spirit masters need to hunt for spirit rings from sub-dragon spirit beasts."

"Is it necessary, or is it the only option?" Chen Feng asked with a burning gaze.

The master glanced at him and said, "Are you doubting that the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Spirit Master can actually absorb other spirit rings?"

"That's right. It's just because the Dragon Seed Spirit Ring brings them the greatest benefits, so there is a saying that they must absorb the Dragon Seed Spirit Ring. That's what I think." Chen Feng said.

"It's... not impossible." The master pondered.

Chen Feng continued to ask:

"Master, your last name is Yu, and your martial spirit is a dragon. So, are you from the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family?"

The master nodded slowly.

"Then I'd like to ask, are there many cases of martial spirit mutations in your family history?"

The master raised his eyebrows. "Indeed, there are quite a few. What have you thought of?"

Chen Feng leaned back in his chair and said seriously:

"Dragons can grow large or small, rise or hide, which shows that dragon species themselves are ever-changing. When the dragon bloodline is enriched to a certain level, only a little energy of other attributes is needed to cause the martial souls of the descendants of soul masters with dragon bloodline to mutate.

"Do you think this theory is valid?"

Chen Feng looked at the frowning master and said in a slightly heavier tone:

"Or to ask more clearly, Master, does your father or mother possess at least one spirit ring of light attribute?"

The master's expression changed suddenly.

Back in the dormitory, Chen Feng leaned on his bed, picked up a piece of paper and pen, and wrote down the title of his first paper:

Theory of Martial Soul Evolution and Principles of Soul Ring Acquisition
