Unexpected Favor
Due to Tang Hao's unilateral lack of cooperation, the recruitment attempt failed as expected.
The three Soul Elder watched Tang Hao and his son leave, each with a different expression.
"You all saw it just now?" one of the tall, thin Soul Elder suddenly asked.
"Hmm, it does look like ordinary Blue Silver Grass," replied another Soul Elder with a more robust physique.
The female Soul Elder chimed in, "However, I have a good impression of that child. He's very mature for his age and seems quite composed. I think he might have a significant advantage in cultivating Meditation Method."
"Why do you think so highly of him? But that Martial Soul..."
"The quality of Martial Soul doesn't necessarily determine everything about a Soul Master," the female Soul Master interrupted.
"As you just investigated, that child is indeed a genuine Innate Full Soul Power. Even if he can't become an outstanding Battle Soul Master, his speed of cultivating Soul Power will definitely not be slower than other geniuses."
The tall, thin Soul Master pondered, "But how do I cultivate Blue Silver Grass? There's no hope in combat; no matter how much I strengthen it, its ceiling is limited. Support? Defense? Or control?"
He shook his head. "It feels difficult to develop in any direction."
The female Soul Master said, "There are indeed difficulties, but it's not entirely impossible to develop. You should all have read the recent 'Spirit City Communications,' right?"
These words made the two male Soul Masters a little embarrassed. They were both old academic failures; otherwise, how could they still only be Soul Elder in their late twenties?
I heard there are some Little Monsters at the Central Academy, only teenagers, but they're already Soul Ancestor. There's no comparison, absolutely no comparison.
Seeing the female Soul Master's displeasure, the two male Soul Masters quickly changed the subject. "So, what did the 'Spirit City Communications' say?"
The female Soul Master glared at the two ignorant fools, then continued helplessly, "You should at least know something about the recent academic reports; those things are quite instructive for cultivation."
The two men nodded repeatedly, indicating that they would definitely study seriously in the future.
Helpless, the female Soul Master could only shake her head and continue, "According to the research of the scholars in the Main Hall, even the Martial Souls that were previously considered 'useless' can actually be cultivated. It's just that because the quality of the Martial Soul is not high, the actual gains are lower than those of other Soul Masters who bear the same risks."
"If you read every issue of the 'Spirit City Communications' carefully, you'll find that the 'Blue Silver Grass' Martial Soul was already being discussed two years ago."
"Although this Martial Soul is relatively weak in direct combat, its strong vitality allows it to be developed into a support or Control System."
"Support?" someone asked doubtfully. "Can Blue Silver Grass support other Soul Masters?"
"No, but it can strengthen oneself," the female Soul Master said. "Scholars have deduced that the powerful vitality of Blue Silver Grass might enhance Soul Master's own endurance and self-healing abilities. He can't assist others, but if he applies Support System skills to himself, the efficiency is still very high."
What's the point?
"At the lower levels, increasing the chances of survival is the most important thing!" The female Soul Master glared fiercely at the person who spoke.
"You've probably heard that the Pharmacists at the Main Hall have developed some Spirit Medicine that can strengthen Soul Master's physique. It's said that the younger the Soul Master is when they take them, the better the effect, allowing them to withstand Soul Rings of a longer age when Soul Hunting."
The female Soul Master's expression shifted from envy to sadness as she spoke. Given her age and Talent, such a treasure was probably beyond her reach in this lifetime.
The two male Soul Masters suddenly realized. "So, this kid can completely rely on that divine medicine to artificially raise the upper limit of Soul Ring absorption. In the future, if he has the opportunity to hunt Soul Rings of higher age, he will be able to obtain more powerful Soul Skills?"
Under roughly equal conditions, the higher the age of the Soul Ring, the stronger the Soul Skill of Soul Master.
Therefore, even if Tang San's Martial Soul quality is low, he may still be able to elevate the actual power of his Soul Skills to the same level as other geniuses by relying on the power of the overflow of high-age Soul Rings.
"This method is a bit too resource-intensive," someone remarked.
"But he was Innate Full Soul Power!" The female Soul Master still insisted on her opinion.
However, after these words were spoken, the other two Soul Masters couldn't say anything more.
Although they had left the academy, they had still heard of the Central Academy's [Golden Generation], especially the one with Innate Full Soul Power, whose strength was said to be so high that it had created a huge gap between him and the other members of the Golden Generation.
Everyone else's average cultivation level has reached the Soul Ancestor, so what level is the one who is the absolute number one now?
Few dared to think about it.
However, the main effect of Innate Soul Power is on the speed of Soul Power cultivation. That person has already set an example. Tang San is also a person with Innate Full Soul Power. Even if his cultivation speed is not as fast as his, it should not be too far behind.
Flaws in one's Martial Soul seem insignificant in the face of such astonishing cultivation speed.
The two male Soul Masters finally understood why the female Soul Master favored Tang San so much; upon closer reflection, it seemed to make sense.
Of course, the biggest reason was the bishop's high regard for him. Therefore, the female Soul Masters believed that Tang San must have extraordinary abilities, after all, their bishop was the one who discovered the person with Innate Full Soul Power.
But the biggest problem now is that they've been rejected...
On the other side, Tang Hao's tense expression finally relaxed a bit.
Although he was already some distance from the Spirit Hall, he was still Titled Douluo, and his powerful cultivation brought not only immense strength but also a comprehensive enhancement of all his senses.
In the end, this Spirit Hall was just a hastily built structure, with a glamorous exterior but no real security measures. He overheard every word spoken by the three Soul Elder inside.
Tang Hao had always suspected that the Spirit Hall had seen through his identity long ago, and that their purpose in coming here was probably to test him, so he had been keeping a close eye on things.
Only now did he realize that those people were indeed after Tang San.
He was momentarily at a loss for words, wondering what these people would think if they knew that the students they were trying so hard to recruit were their sworn enemies.
"Dad."
Tang San's voice interrupted his thoughts, and Tang Hao lowered his head to look at his son.
Tang San asked seriously, "Dad, do you have a grudge against the Spirit Hall?"
Tang Hao was silent for a moment before saying, "You figured it out?"
Tang San didn't answer, he just stared intently at him.
"I'll tell you about this when we get back." Tang Hao looked into his son's eyes and suddenly realized that Tang San was actually more mature than he had imagined.
To prevent him from being misled by the Spirit Hall, perhaps it's time to tell him the truth about that matter.
Seven Treasure City, Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Alchemy Room.
Zhou You extinguished the fire in the furnace, then released a burst of Qi from his palm, lifting the cauldron on top of the furnace to reveal five pills with a faint medicinal fragrance, which he then pulled out with his Qi hand.
Zhou You took a Jade Bottle with his other hand and poured five Medicinal Pills into it one by one.
He examined the quality of the pills and nodded in satisfaction.
This batch of pills was refined quite well.
It's time to try using the Aromatic Silk Beauty to refine elixirs.
