Enrollment

Martial Soul Hall Soul Master Academy, as a direct subsidiary of the Martial Soul Hall, holds a crucial position in the Soul Master education system.

Other places have intermediate Soul Master Academies, but Martial Soul City hasn't established an intermediate Soul Skill Academy.

Martial Soul City is a sacred land for Soul Masters. Seven out of ten people are Soul Masters.

To meet the educational needs of the citizens, the wealthy Martial Soul Hall established four primary Soul Master Academies in the southeast, northwest, and southwest directions.

On the academy's lush, verdant walkways, Tuoba Xi was earnestly advising his grandson.

"Yan'er, I've already spoken with the East Academy Headmaster. If you don't want to attend class, you don't have to go; the teachers won't pressure you. You can spend more time heading to the Simulated Training Grounds to diligently cultivate."

You see, whether or not it has a Simulated Training Ground is a key standard for determining if an academy is an Advanced Soul Master Academy.

The Martial Soul Hall, leveraging its considerable wealth and resources, has established Simulated Training Grounds – something only found in Advanced Soul Master Academies – in all four primary Soul Master Academies in Martial Soul City, providing Soul Master students with an exceptional cultivation environment.

Tuoba Yan has extensively studied the Martial Soul Hall's collection of books, his understanding of Soul Beasts, Soul Rings, Soul Skills, and Soul Bones has reached a level comparable to that of an expert.

He is even confident that he is capable of holding a teaching position within the academy.

And the reason he chose to study at the academy, at its root, was to take advantage of the Simulated Training Grounds.

This magical cultivation location not only increases cultivation speed but also simulates various natural environments, significantly enhancing the cultivation effect.

With its assistance, Tuoba Yan firmly believes that he can achieve twice the result with half the effort on the path to improving his Soul Power Level.

In his mind, without external assistance, increasing his Soul Power from level 19 to 20 within three months is not difficult; but with the Simulated Training Ground, he is even more confident, certain that he can achieve this goal in a month.

Of course, the Simulated Training Ground is not all-powerful; as one's cultivation improves, its effect on increasing cultivation speed will gradually diminish.

"If our clan could take a step forward and establish our own Advanced Soul Master Academy, you wouldn't need to come here to study. Alright, the academy officially opens tomorrow. Are you planning to stay at school tonight, or go home?" Tuoba Xi asked.

"Stay at school."

"Alright, as you wish."

Tuoba Xi spoke, then snapped his fingers, taking a token from his Storage Soul Guide Device.

The token had a carving of the East Academy's gate on one side, and a sword and hammer emblem on the other.

"Take this; it's proof that you're a member of Zero Dormitory."

Tuoba Yan took the token from his grandfather.

You see, Zero Dormitory is not a place that anyone can simply move into.

Ordinary student dormitories within the academy are ungraded, but a unique Zero Dormitory was specially built on a small mountain within the academy.

To move in, one must meet either of two conditions: one, their Innate Soul Power must reach level nine or higher; two, on the last day of every month, any student in the academy can challenge the students of Zero Dormitory. If the challenge is successful, they can replace the loser and become a member.

"By the way…" Tuoba Xi smiled mysteriously, "besides these, I've prepared a little surprise for you!"

"What surprise?"

"Hehe, if I tell you in advance, it won't be a surprise anymore."

Zero Dormitory is located on the mid-slope of the back mountain, with a staircase leading directly to it.

From a distance, it doesn't resemble an ordinary dormitory; it looks more like a refined villa.

The villa is nestled amongst the mountains and waters, a picturesque scene. Standing there, one can not only overlook the entire academy but also enjoy the brilliant night view of half of Martial Soul City.

In terms of living, the students residing here are also treated with exceptional care, with professional staff meticulously attending to their daily needs.

The villa has seven rooms, two of which are locked, and the other five are vacant.

Tuoba Yan cultivated for a whole day but still hadn't discovered the surprise his grandfather mentioned. However, he didn't mind and quickly fell asleep.

In the middle of the night, he got up to use the restroom, but when he opened the door, he froze instantly.

First, a wave of fresh, invigorating fragrance wafted into his nostrils.

Immediately after, a graceful figure came into view.

A girl was bathing in the bathroom, looking to be only eleven or twelve years old, but already developing into a tall, slender young woman, with the nascent contours of feminine beauty.

As if sensing a burning gaze, the girl turned her head and met Tuoba Yan's eyes.

In that moment, Tuoba Yan's mind went blank.

He only heard the girl's magnetic voice drift over.

"Be good, go out and lock the door for me!"

Upon hearing this, Tuoba Yan's lips twitched awkwardly before he regained his senses and quickly closed the bathroom door, leaning against the wall.

Not long after, the bathroom door opened again, and the girl walked out wearing a bathrobe.

The room was dark, and as he peered through the faint light, Tuoba Yan got a closer look at the girl's face and couldn't help but exclaim.

"It's you!"

It turned out that earlier in the day, this girl had snatched the sachet he wanted from a stall at a high price.

At this moment, the girl reached out and grabbed Tuoba Yan's arm.

A sense of caution arose in Tuoba Yan's heart. He flicked his arm, easily breaking free from the girl's grasp. He frowned and questioned, "What are you doing?"

The girl's eyes were filled with annoyance as she struck a fighting stance and angrily shouted, "You looked at my body and then asked me what I wanted to do. Pervert, prepare to be beaten!" Before her words had finished, she charged towards Tuoba Yan like an arrow released from a bow, her right hand forming a claw, aiming straight for his face, her movements swift and fierce.

Tuoba Yan's pupils constricted as he nimbly dodged the attack, using the Tuoba Clan's secret technique, "Dragon Step," leaving a half-arc afterimage where he stood.

"I said it was a misunderstanding!"

While evading the girl's relentless assault, Tuoba Yan helplessly explained, "I got up to use the restroom in the middle of the night, and who would have thought the door lock would break? And you were taking a bath inside…"

"Shut up!"

The girl snapped, her offensive becoming even more ferocious, her legs unleashing a flurry of kicks that stirred up waves of fragrance.

Tuoba Yan didn't dare to meet the attacks head-on. Relying on his remarkably sharp reflexes, which far surpassed those of his peers, he used his footwork to dodge left and right, weaving through the cramped space.

Despite being constantly on the defensive, he skillfully evaded each of the girl's attacks with his nimble movements.

During the scuffle, the girl suddenly spun around, launching a flying kick with her toe aimed directly at Tuoba Yan's chest—the speed was astonishing, and the kick carried a potent aura of allure.

Tuoba Yan didn't retreat but instead moved forward, his body twisting with the flexibility of a loach, narrowly avoiding her kick. At the same time, his right hand clenched into a fist, precisely tapping her knee's meridian point.

"Ah!"

The girl gasped softly, her knee buckling, and she nearly collapsed. However, she reacted quickly, rolling to create distance between herself and Tuoba Yan.

Her eyes were filled with surprise and disbelief; she clearly hadn't expected this six-year-old child to possess such refined combat skills.

Tuoba Yan grew impatient, repeating, "I'm telling you, it's a misunderstanding. I needed to relieve myself, and who would have thought the door lock would break while you were taking a bath?"

"You looked at my body and are calling it a misunderstanding?"

"I didn't see much."

"Then, how much did you see?"

"I saw what needed to be seen. The important thing is it was dark, so I couldn't see clearly."

"You, you deserve a beating!"

Hearing this, the girl was furious, her chest heaving with anger.

In an instant, two yellow Soul Rings descended slowly from her head.

In that very moment, a peculiar change occurred.

Her figure became even more graceful and captivating, her ears transforming into fluffy fox ears, and a fluffy, soft fox tail sprouted from her back.

Her already exquisite face now possessed an even more alluring and bewitching beauty, radiating a rich, foxy charm that unconsciously captivated those who beheld it.

"Soul Fox!" Tuoba Yan was suddenly startled, staring at the transformation before him and exclaiming in astonishment, "You're Hu Li Na!"
