System, Martial Soul, Sacrifice Points (Seeking Collection, Seeking Recommendation!)

Sacrifice the Shrek Seven Devils! Then he could choose one of five Light Equipment items? Holy shit, clouds?

There was no need to even think about these five pieces of Light Equipment—their attributes and quality were definitely...

Huo Feng's thoughts shifted. If that was the case, then he truly could not join Spirit Hall.

Although joining Spirit Hall would still give him opportunities to cross paths with the Shrek Seven Devils.

By then, however, sacrificing them would not be so easy.

After all, the prerequisite for sacrificing a living person was making contact with the sacrifice.

Given the Shrek Seven Devils' nature, they would practically be inseparable in the future.

Moreover, their relationship with Spirit Hall was utterly irreconcilable.

Wouldn't it be better to infiltrate their ranks directly and sacrifice them one by one? According to the coming plot, Tang San and Xiao Wu, two of the Shrek Seven Devils, would first meet at Notting Academy.

Such a pure and adorable young beauty could not be allowed to fall into the hands of that despicable Tang San again.

"I must save Xiao Wu from the depths of misery and uphold justice!"

With his mind made up, Huo Feng slowly raised his childish face, his expression vacant and hollow.

He made no unnecessary movements, merely shaking his head lightly.

Like a child who understood nothing, he then lowered his head again.

The other children who had yet to leave were immediately puzzled when they saw Huo Feng refuse the invitation of a Battle Soul Master from Spirit Hall.

Gazes fell upon Huo Feng. Though the voices were quiet, he could still hear some of their whispers.

They did not know much about Spirit Hall either, but they had learned from the adults that it was a mysterious and powerful existence.

As long as one could join Spirit Hall, setting aside anything else—

At the very least, one would be able to eat and drink well.

Yet such a rare opportunity had been refused by this fool Huo Feng?

"No wonder he's an orphan."

A nearly inaudible voice came from behind.

Old Jack turned around and smacked that child with his cane.

"Don't talk nonsense. Go home, all of you!"

Then he turned back, forcing a trace of an apologetic smile onto his face as he looked at Su Yuntao. "Battle Soul Master, I'm truly sorry. This child has been withdrawn since he was young, and the only grandfather he had passed away some time ago. Since he doesn't want to go, then let it be."

Seeing this, Su Yuntao said nothing more and merely shook his head lightly.

This child's talent was indeed quite good, but Spirit Hall stood high above all others, filled with talents and countless geniuses.

It had never had a rule of lowering its head or turning back.

Much less for a child of only five or six.

He had refused, so he had missed his own opportunity.

"What a waste of Innate Full Soul Power."

Su Yuntao muttered calmly to himself before turning and leaving.

Only after Old Jack could no longer see Su Yuntao's figure did he crouch down and look at Tang San and Huo Feng with a kindly expression. "Tell Grandpa, do you still want to become Soul Masters? Do you want to attend a school specially meant for learning how Soul Masters cultivate?"

A gleam flashed through Tang San's eyes, and intense interest immediately appeared on his face.

Huo Feng also raised his head, his expression much more relaxed than before.

Old Jack did not feel disappointed. A child was still a child; even he himself had never heard of the things that Battle Soul Master had just mentioned.

It was normal for such a young child to have trouble accepting them.

Especially a child who had just lost his only family.

Every year, the village had one Work-study student slot at Notting Soul Master Junior Academy. It was not far from the village, and giving it to Huo Feng might be more suitable.

As for Tang San, if he put in a little effort and spoke with the village chief next door, he should be able to get another spot.

If his village suddenly had the chance to produce two Soul Masters, wouldn't that old fellow hurry over to curry favor with him?

"Grandpa Jack, I need to ask my father first."

Tang San looked at Old Jack as he answered.

"Grandpa Jack, if Tang San can go, then I'll go too."

Huo Feng's voice was not loud, but Old Jack heard it clearly.

He became even more certain of what he had been thinking.

It would be good if the two children had each other for company.

Tang Hao's figure flashed through his mind, and a trace of disgust appeared on Old Jack's face.

But for the sake of the two children's future, he could only bite the bullet and do it.

"Let's go."

Old Jack first sent Huo Feng home, then returned to the Blacksmith Shop together with Tang San.

Once home, Huo Feng tightly shut the doors and windows before releasing his martial soul with a thought.

Ordinary—far too ordinary.

A plain, utterly unadorned iron sword.

"This is the Nine Swords of Dugu?"

Huo Feng's mouth twitched involuntarily.

Wasn't this system just bullying an honest man?!

"System, do you take me for a child or something?"

Halfway through, he suddenly realized something was off. It seemed that he really was a child now.

But that wasn't important. This wasn't the time to dwell on wording.

"You're telling me this is the Nine Swords of Dugu?"

Where was Dugu? Where was nine?

So all that was left was the sword, huh? Ding! The Martial Soul released by the protagonist is the Nine Swords of Dugu!

With every ten levels the host gains, the Martial Soul will undergo corresponding changes. Combined with Soul Rings, it can possess nine forms.

Hence the name Nine Swords of Dugu.

The pleasant mechanical voice instantly sounded in Huo Feng's mind.

So that was it. The next moment, a light screen visible only to him appeared before him.

There were only three sections on the light screen: Host Information, Martial Soul, and Sacrifice Points.

Huo Feng opened the Host Information section, and the light screen changed accordingly.

Host Name: Huo Feng.

Host Martial Soul: Nine Swords of Dugu.

Host Soul Power: Level 10 Soul Scholar.

Host Soul Skills: None.

Host Soul Bones: None.

Host Wives: None.

?

?????

Everything before that had seemed normal to Huo Feng, but when he saw the final entry, he could no longer take it.

I'm only six years old!

System, wasn't that conclusion a little premature?

As if it knew what he was thinking, the final entry on the light screen trembled slightly before changing to: Host Wives: None at present.

Huo Feng drew in a sharp breath. That was barely acceptable.

Next, he opened the Martial Soul section.

The light screen rapidly changed, and the image of an iron sword appeared upon it.

It was precisely his Martial Soul.

Martial Soul: Nine Swords of Dugu.

Level: 1.

Form: None.

Huo Feng nodded. In other words, he needed to obtain the First Soul Ring before he could unlock the first form of the Nine Swords of Dugu.

With that being the case, there was no need to rush.

Besides, even if he wanted to hurry, what could he do? It wasn't as though he could go out and hunt Soul Beasts by himself.

Finally, Huo Feng opened the Sacrifice Points section.

After the light screen changed, an interface resembling a shop appeared.

The dazzling golden items nearly blinded Huo Feng's 24K titanium alloy eyes.

The prices below were even more dizzying.

Light Dragon Tooth External Soul Bone: 9999 Sacrifice Points!

Light Storm Greatsword Soul Guidance Device: 9999 Sacrifice Points!

Seriously... Huo Feng was speechless. Was this something he could afford right now?

The upper-right corner clearly displayed: Sacrifice Points: 101.

That was nowhere near 9999.

There were some cheaper items, of course, but even those cost several hundred or over a thousand.

When he opened Sacrifice Points, a detailed breakdown appeared below.

Sacrificial Teapot: Sacrifice Points +1.

Sacrifice Tang San: Sacrifice Points +100.

A sharp gleam flashed in Huo Feng's eyes. The corners of his mouth lifted slightly into a friendly smile.

Tang San was actually worth so much!

If he got the chance later, he had to sacrifice him more often.

Such a precious resource could not be wasted.
