The Spirit Hall holds a monthly general meeting, which is always held in the Pope's Hall.

The Worship Hall is generally not involved.

The assembly consisted of only a few people from the Elder Hall.

Occasionally, archbishops or commanders of the guards would appear.

This can be considered a reward for these people.

After all, meeting the Pope is still an expectation in the hearts of many people and is considered an honor.

They were walking at the main gate of the Spirit Hall.

A voice then rang out from behind:

"Old Li, you're up so early today, aren't you going to give your wife a little surprise?"

His voice was loud, boisterous, and unrestrained.

Li Mubai immediately understood who it was: Demon Bear.

"What's wrong with your dark circles? Did you and your sister-in-law...?"

Li Mubai turned around, grinned, and joked.

"Sigh, let's not talk about it anymore..."

Li Mubai stood still.

The Demon Bear sighed and quickly approached.

"This stupid meeting, it's always at this time every month."

The Demon Bear hooked one arm around Li Mubai's shoulder.

He looked listless, his eyes were tired, and he started complaining.

The Pope's Hall.

In a high position.

A magnificent, exquisitely crafted figure was waiting early.

Inside the main hall.

Li Mubai remained standing at the very back of the crowd.

He ranked tenth, the last one, which means he should be last according to the order of the rankings.

But...

Nevertheless, he is now positioned near the front.

Because none of the people from the Worship Hall came.

The nine elders inside the hall displayed expressions ranging from respectful, disdainful, aloof, to calm and indifferent...

"Today's meeting will mainly discuss two things..."

Bibi Dong's cold voice echoed and reverberated throughout the hall.

The sound was crisp, and even a little... pleasant?

But Li Mubai had no interest in it, and no strange thoughts came to mind.

"I can sign in now. What will the system give me this time?"

That was the only thought in his mind.

And we are full of anticipation for it!

I felt a slight surge of excitement, but quickly calmed down.

"System."

"Check-in!"

Silently recite it in your mind.

In an instant.

A virtual light screen, visible only to himself, suddenly burst forth with a dazzling white light.

Congratulations on obtaining the Soul Tool: Momentary Mustard Seed

Congratulations on obtaining Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring *1

Congratulations on obtaining Cultivation Enhancement Card *1

"Congratulations on completing your first official check-in. The system is loading... 1%... 3%... 5%..."

Li Mubai's eyelids twitched as he looked at the three items on the light screen, his heart filled with excitement.

He focused his mind and looked at the first thing on the light screen.

Soon.

A notification message appeared before his eyes.

"Mount Sumeru Mustard Seed: A spatial Soul Tool."

Grade: Spiritual (Upgradeable)

Function: Contains a vast universe within, capable of storing inanimate objects. The space has no upper limit; as the owner's strength increases, the space expands accordingly.

"It's a spatial Soul Tool!"

Li Mubai was overjoyed.

He had long coveted this thing, but had been unable to obtain it.

This is because spatial Soul Tool are extremely precious and very difficult to craft.

The materials needed to forge this kind of Soul Tool are already scarce, appearing only once every hundred years.

Due to the scarcity of raw materials, the quantity of these treasures is limited, causing their prices to skyrocket.

Up to now.

Ordinary people simply can't afford it, nor can they find that source.

This is only the lowest-level spatial Soul Tool.

Soul Tool are divided into low-grade, mid-grade, and high-grade... As for what other grades there are, he didn't know.

The old him.

They wouldn't spend any time learning about such things; their entire focus was on cultivation, leaving no time for anything else.

But.

Produced by the system, it's definitely not an ordinary product!

He could almost deduce that this so-called spiritual grade was definitely above the ordinary rank.

The space has no upper limit and changes according to the owner's strength.

In other words, it becomes stronger when facing strong opponents and weaker when facing weak opponents; its effect is so extraordinary, is this something that ordinary Space Soul Tool can possess?

I'm afraid even Bibi Dong wouldn't know the grade of this thing!

If this thing were released, it would likely cause a bloodbath in the Soul Master World.

Spatial Soul Tool are already rare items on the continent.

What ordinary people possess are merely flawed Space Soul Tool.

They can't even reach the required rank.

The space is only a mere half a square meter to three square meters.

Those with slightly higher strength and status used lower-grade Space Soul Tool.

Similar to the one in the Demon Bear's hand.

The space contained within this period is approximately between ten and thirty square meters.

When the Demon Bear pulled out this thing, Li Mubai was extremely envious.

The Demon Bear kept insisting on giving it to him, but he refused.

It's never right to just take what belongs to others for free; it creates too much of a debt of gratitude and doesn't fit his style.

As for mid-grade items, they are extremely rare to encounter. These items almost always appear in the hands of important figures or powerful Soul Master.

As far as he knows.

Bibi Dong possesses a mid-grade Space Soul Tool.

Golden Crocodile also has one.

After all, he's an old monster who's lived for decades or even centuries, and his strength is quite formidable, even within the Spirit Hall. It's perfectly normal for him to possess a mid-grade Space Soul Tool.

This thing has much more space.

The space contained within is at least thirty square meters or more.

As for the even higher-grade superior quality, Li Mubai has not yet seen it.

And the spiritual item provided by this system...

It should be much higher than the middle to upper rank, right?

After all, its ability to grow is something that other Soul Tool cannot match.

Immediately afterwards.

Li Mubai looked at the second item on the light screen in front of him.

Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring!

"We already used one Soul Ring last time, so we don't need this one for now."

He then focused his mind and looked at the third item.

A piece of information appeared.

"Cultivation Enhancement Card: A one-time consumable item. Using it can instantly increase your Soul Power by ten years of arduous cultivation."

That's it.

Li Mubai's eyes immediately lit up.

But the next moment...

He suppressed his excitement, his face returning to calm and composed, though the light in his eyes still flickered uncontrollably.

This card.

That suits his current attitude of giving up perfectly.

Ten years of arduous practice.

If used, how much Soul Power will it increase, and how many levels will my strength rise?

He had no idea.

But.

It's better to have something than nothing.

He didn't believe that ten years of arduous training to improve one's Soul Power wouldn't be enough.

It should be able to raise his strength to at least level 94, right?

Despite this.

He didn't plan to use this Cultivation Enhancement Card right now.

Joke.

They're still having a big meeting!

Soul Master's breakthrough in cultivation does not have no impact on the surrounding environment.

Some people, when they break through, can even cause dramatic changes in the world.

Of course, this applies to extremely powerful individuals, or those at the god level.

As for the others...

Even if one cannot achieve this, one will still reveal their aura to some extent when breaking through.

In the wild, this behavior would be tantamount to suicide.

Attracting Soul Beast, or greedy fellow spirits, will not end well.

Therefore, breakthroughs in strength, especially breakthroughs in major realms.

We still need to find a relatively safe and secluded place; that's the right way.

As for this Cultivation Enhancement Card, who knows what will happen if you use it...

Now.

Inside the main hall.

Bibi Dong's voice rang out eloquently.

Standing at the back, Li Mubai kept his head slightly lowered, seemingly oblivious to everything around him.

His current gaze.

Completely captivated by the virtual light screen before my eyes.

"System is loading...96%"

"97%..."

"98%...99%..."

Li Mubai concentrated intently, staring intently at the panel, his breathing becoming heavier as a result.

Finally.

"100%... System loading complete!"

Boom...

The virtual screen in front of me suddenly shook violently.

Li Mubai felt a blur before his eyes, and the scene suddenly changed.

The virtual light screen returned to normal, but it was different from before, now divided into four major sections.

These are: System Space, Personal Panel, Check-in, and Random Tasks!

"An extra random number has been added."

"A mission? Is this the official system?"

He focused his mind and opened the system space.

After entering.

Three items appeared on the screen; they were the items obtained from the previous check-in, and they were now quietly appearing on the screen.

He then opened his personal profile.

Li Mubai

Talent: Innate Full Soul Power

Martial Soul: Tool Martial Soul - Sword

Level: 93 (Titled Douluo)

Soul Ring: Yellow, Yellow, Purple, Purple, Black, Black, Black, Black, Red

Soul Bone: Right Arm Soul Bone (Ten Thousand Years)

Soul Skill: Draw-Sword Slash, Sword Control Technique, Gale Sword Intent, Clear Sword Heart, Icy Forbidden Land, Awe- Awe-Inspiring Sword Intent, Zhuang Zhou Dreams of a Butterfly, Forgetfulness of Forgetting Both Self and Things

Items: Mount Sumeru Mustard Seed (Spiritual Grade), Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring (Ancient Flood Dragon Python), Cultivation Enhancement Card (Ten-Year Edition)

Bloodline:...

Supernatural Power:...

Evaluation: Ants...

Personal information, in detail, appears on the screen.

Having read the previous section, Li Mubai felt it was quite good, with very detailed information.

He paused slightly when he saw the bloodline.

"What is bloodline? Could it be Martial Soul inheritance like that of the Angel lineage or the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect?"

He left this section blank.

In other words, he was a person without any bloodline to carry on.

This puzzled him somewhat, but he didn't think much of it.

The problem is, thinking about it is useless.

Where does he get this so-called bloodline?

With no way to get there from heaven or earth, there was absolutely no other option but to give up and ignore it for now.

My gaze shifted downwards.

He then saw the section on supernatural powers.

This thing is also blank.

"What are all these things? Supernatural powers? Does this world even have such things as supernatural powers? Aren't they just about fusing Soul Ring and using Soul Skill?"

But.

He then realized that his idea was wrong.

Although he doesn't possess supernatural powers, aren't the innate talents that those Soul Beast naturally possess supernatural powers?

In other words...

Supernatural powers are only possessed by Soul Beast!

But... why did the system release this? Does signing in grant supernatural powers?

Li Mubai suddenly froze.

He was horrified by his own thought.

The reason why Soul Master are so powerful is because of the various Soul Skill brought about by Soul Ring and Martial Soul.

While Martial Soul and Soul Skill make Soul Master powerful, they also serve as a constraint. Because of the Martial Soul, the strength Soul Master can unleash is limited to the limit of the Martial Soul.

But if one could obtain supernatural powers.

That would mean that he would no longer be limited to his own Martial Soul.

His abilities will become diverse, making him impossible to defend against.

The power of this supernatural ability is currently unknown.

However, Li Mubai had a premonition that since the system listed it as the last one, this supernatural power must be extraordinary!

Immediately afterwards.

He looked down again.

"What the hell is this system's evaluation?!"

Staring at those two extremely insulting words, his face twitched, and he roared wildly in his heart.

While he may not be a top-tier expert now, he's certainly not second-rate either, right?

After all, his level 93 Soul Power was genuine.

There is absolutely no falsehood in it.

What you've earned through decades of hard work and self-cultivation can hardly be considered insignificant, can it?

If he were an ant.

Wouldn't other ordinary people be like mayflies, and wouldn't they have no chance to live?

But.

No matter how much he roared, the system didn't change at all.

Forget it, I can't hold a grudge...

Looking at the last section... random tasks.

He focused his mind and clicked on it.

What met my eyes was a blank space, nothing at all.

Perhaps it hasn't officially started yet.

Random tasks, as the name suggests, involve releasing tasks and receiving rewards.

He was very familiar with this.

After all, I read plenty of these kinds of wish-fulfillment novels in my past life.

See here.

Li Mubai then silently recited the command to conceal the light barrier.

The sounds that were echoing in the main hall suddenly surged into my ears like a tidal wave.

My head is still a little foggy as I come to my senses.

Immediately afterwards.

Then he heard a clear, cold female voice.

"This time, I want to give special praise to one person."

Bibi Dong finished speaking, she slightly raised her eyes, her gaze bright and clear like a beam of light, and looked straight into the crowd, reaching the very inconspicuous figure at the back of the crowd.

The elders in the hall followed this gaze and looked over.

Li Mubai had just emerged from the virtual panel and regained his senses when he looked up to see a large group of people staring at him.

He was momentarily stunned.

[It all depends on what I do]

He hadn't even had time to clearly distinguish the voice from before.

Immediately afterwards.

He then saw Bibi Dong sitting on the throne at the very front, a playful look on her face.

[This woman... doesn't seem like a good person!]

[That upturned corner of her mouth... could it be... she's planning something wicked again?]

There are always treacherous subjects trying to harm me!

Just as Li Mubai was on guard, Bibi Dong's voice suddenly rang out:

"That's right. This person is the Tenth Elder!"

Upon hearing this...

The other elders' expressions immediately became subtle.

This was the first time they had ever seen Bibi Dong offer praise to someone.

Li Mubai joined the Spirit Hall.

All told, it hadn't even been three months before he received praise from Bibi Dong.

What does this tell us?

Everyone understood perfectly well, without saying a word.

Only the Demon Bear, all smiles, was genuinely happy for Li Mubai.

This is his brother!

Bibi Dong smiled, her pearly white teeth slightly parted:

"The Tenth Elder has only been with the Spirit Hall for a short time, yet his achievements are remarkable!"

Upon hearing this...

The elders couldn't help but look puzzled. What merit? How come they didn't know about it?

Moreover...

What kind of achievements can a newcomer to the Spirit Hall accomplish?

Many elders couldn't help but secretly wonder if Bibi Dong's actions were a deliberate declaration that Li Mubai was now her representative.

This possibility took root in the minds of many elders.

The crowd remained silent.

Inside the main hall, only Bibi Dong's voice still echoed:

"In a short period of time, he brought a large amount of extra revenue to the Spirit Hall!"

PS: Thanks to Yunqi... Yinyun for the donation.
