One of a Kind

##DONE##

Tuoba Yan smiled, "Grandfather, I didn't force anyone to buy anything. Their purchases were entirely voluntary. These people entered the game, fixated on the Tuoba Clan's movements, and now that they've stumbled, it's entirely their own fault!"

Among those fixated on the Tuoba Clan's power were the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, both major empires' imperial relatives, and numerous deeply entrenched Soul Master families.

Tuoba Xi's heart surged with excitement, his eyes gleaming with inspiration. He snapped his fingers and declared, "Good, let's do it as you said!"

It was easy to imagine that these ill-intentioned individuals would inevitably shoot themselves in the foot.

And the Tuoba Clan would be able to profit handsomely, even potentially leaping to become the second wealthiest family in the Soul Master world.

Lost in thoughts of a glorious future, Tuoba Xi's mood was ecstatic. In his lifetime, he would be able to elevate his clan's strength thanks to his own efforts.

Tuoba Yan stared at Tuoba Xi, deliberately reminding him, "Don't get too excited just yet. You said earlier that there were people monitoring them, including those from the Martial Soul Hall's Pontiff and Judgement Elder!"

To his surprise, Tuoba Xi dismissed it with a wave of his hand. "I've devoted my heart and soul to the Martial Soul Hall. If they have needs, they can easily exchange for services, and I will comply. Now, acting in a way that shames my position is purely self-inflicted humiliation, not something to blame on others! Yan'er, I'll arrange things now!"

Watching Tuoba Xi leave, Tuoba Yan's lips curved into a slight smile.

Thanks to his guidance, the Martial Soul Hall's "fourth fool" was finally no longer naive.

Just then, Tuoba Xi glanced over and saw Hu Li Na behind the second-floor balcony's glass.

Although the glass provided excellent soundproofing, Hu Li Na silently drew the curtains when she noticed his gaze.

Tuoba Yan stepped into the living room, and as he passed the cleaning auntie, he smiled, "Auntie, your dress is particularly elegant today."

"Thank you."

After a brief pleasantry, Tuoba Yan ascended the stairs, a hint of a sinister smile playing on his lips as he thought to himself, "My Martial Soul is the Saint, not the Saintess. Auntie, since you want to profit with me, don't blame me for using you to my advantage. The question is, with your status, can you bear the consequences of this?"

In the days that followed, the Task Hall of the Tuoba Clan released an infinite loop task.

Any clan member who went out to acquire specific items could easily earn family contribution points.

Initially, this task was only open to direct descendants.

Seeing the various factions fixated on the Tuoba Clan, they all followed suit and began buying the same goods.

From the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to third-rate families, everyone frantically sought to purchase them.

The most pleased were the cleaning staff in Zero Dormitory.

Not only were they well-dressed, but they also began adorning themselves with gold and jewels.

Having witnessed Tuoba Yan using the item and seeing his cultivation soar, they revealed the information to their benefactor.

Until one day, the Tuoba Clan suddenly stopped buying. Everyone then realized the truth.

Previously, the sellers were all disguised merchants from the Tuoba Clan's direct line, or selling goods through third-party channels.

As a result of this, the Tuoba Clan's warehouse was already overflowing with Gold Soul Coins.

Because the warehouse simply couldn't hold any more, they had to start purchasing Storage Soul Guide Devices to store the Gold Soul Coins.

The various factions awoke from their delusion.

Three days later, the cleaning staff was replaced.

Tuoba Yan learned that the original cleaning staff's entire family had been brutally murdered.

The arsonist burned down the house, leaving no trace of their remains.

It was just a cleaning staff member after all.

As a royal relative of the Martial Soul Hall, the Tuoba Clan was a distinguished family.

Even though the various factions knew they had been tricked, they could only grit their teeth and swallow the loss, daring not stir up trouble.

Even Pontiff Bibi Dong and Judgement Elder Qian Dao Liu suffered losses, and facing the loyal Tuoba Xi, even though he held considerable power, he could only feel helpless.

Inside Zero Dormitory, Tuoba Xi burst out laughing, "Hahahaha, Yan, you didn't see their faces! They thought it was just ordinary cultivation materials, but it turned out to be a rather ordinary material. Our Tuoba Clan made seventeen billion Gold Soul Coins from this! Seventeen billion! Now I dare say, we are the wealthiest family in the Soul Master world, no one can compare!"

"Don't get too excited just yet, those who suffered losses also include the Martial Soul Hall's elders."

Tuoba Xi's smile vanished. "You mean… the Elder Council will target us? I've already considered that. Your mother is the Judgement Elder's niece. He wants to protect the Qian Clan's interests and can't do without the Tuoba Clan's strong support. With that relationship as a shield, even if they want to act, it's a matter of weighing the pros and cons. We can just turn the tables on them!"

"Oh, Grandfather finally understands?"

"Yan'er, don't misunderstand. I am loyal, not foolish. You and the clan are my spiritual pillars, the foundation I will die to protect. If anyone wants to harm you, they must first step over my body!"

Tuoba Xi's eyes were resolute, and he added, "But as long as there's a chance, we can't retaliate. The Martial Soul Hall has treated us well up until now."

Tuoba Yan remained silent for a long while before saying, "This is just your choice, and it only represents you personally!"

Thanks to Tuoba Yan's efforts, Tuoba Xi's mindset had quietly transformed.

In fact, Hu Li Na and Xie Yue were also changing subtly, not in personality, but in their cultivation progress.

Furthermore, the true cultivation value of Whale Rubber and Dragon Saliva Incense had been uncovered, and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and other families had also suffered losses thanks to Tuoba Yan.

Although Tuoba Yan hadn't yet taken power, his actions were already subtly influencing the world.

It had been proven that the future could be changed.

Regarding breaking the curse on the Martial Soul Hall and rewriting the Tuoba Clan's tragic fate, Tuoba Yan was full of confidence in the future.

Tuoba Xi knew that his grandson was very decisive and that even he would struggle to influence his thoughts. Recognizing that everyone's path was different, he refrained from further persuasion and instead asked, "How many levels is your Soul Power now? Your qi cultivation is completely internalized; I can't detect your true level."

"Twenty-nine levels."

The Simulated Training Grounds had accelerated the cultivation process.

When he reached level twenty-five, it took fifty days to advance to the next level.

After that, the time required per level gradually increased, and it took three months to advance from level twenty-eight to level twenty-nine.

If he had another four months, Tuoba Yan was confident that he could break through to the three-ring Soul Elder before entering his second year.
