Changing One to Zero, Tang San Delighted to Receive a Thirty-Year-Old Belt

The three of them bought some supplies for the road in the city, hired a carriage, and then left the city.

What puzzled Tang San the most was this:

Despite the carriage being so cramped, they had somehow made room for twenty pounds of white radishes.

Even Ye Xian, who had remained calm-faced the entire way, smiled when he saw this.

He simply could not hold it in.

The fact that he had not burst out laughing was already quite impressive.

If not for those white radishes, he truly would have forgotten about Yu Xiaogang's Martial Soul.

The infamous Farting Pig.

Even to unleash a soul skill, it had to eat two white radishes first to get its breath flowing.

Without radishes, Yu Xiaogang's combat power was practically zero.

"Xiao San, this is a Storage Soul Tool made up of twenty-four gemstones."

Ding! Detected the famous scene of Yu Xiaogang giving Tang San the Twenty-Four Moonlit Bridges!

Chosen Encounter triggered!

Encounter Entry: Yu Xiaogang looked at Tang San with a smug expression. Every one of the twenty-four gemstones on this belt has one cubic meter of storage space!

The host may modify the entry, thereby affecting Tang San's original Martial Soul awakening result.

Reward for successfully influencing it: A one-hundred-cubic-meter Storage Soul Tool!

Just then, the system's voice rang out in Ye Xian's mind.

His previously listless face instantly came alive.

Looking at the entry provided by the system, Ye Xian chuckled mischievously to himself.

Although changing it like this was a little ruthless, not doing so would be far too much of a waste.

He immediately issued a silent command to the system in his mind.

"Change 'one' to 'zero.'"

That way, one cubic meter would directly become zero cubic meters.

In other words, Yu Xiaogang had just given Tang San an old belt he had worn for several decades.

It would have no other use whatsoever.

Just then, Yu Xiaogang began putting on an act and bragging.

"This belt has been with me for many years. It is one of your godfather's treasures."

"Every gemstone has one cubic meter of storage space."

"Consider it the first gift your godfather gives you today!"

Inside the carriage, Yu Xiaogang untied his belt in front of Ye Xian.

Then he gave it to Tang San.

"How about calling it the Twenty-Four Moonlit Bridges?"

Tang San was exceptionally excited now.

He failed to notice entirely that Yu Xiaogang was actually watching Ye Xian.

"Excellent name!"

Yu Xiaogang looked at Tang San and spoke solemnly.

"As long as you are my, Yu Xiaogang's, disciple, there will be plenty of good things for you in the future!"

Ye Xian naturally understood that those words were actually meant for him.

The purpose was to get him to take Yu Xiaogang as his master.

Looking at the belt in Tang San's hands, Ye Xian laughed inwardly.

Twenty-four cubic meters?

Now it could not even hold a single hair.

Seeing that Ye Xian had no reaction, Yu Xiaogang felt somewhat disappointed.

He turned and began teaching Tang San how to use the belt.

"Inject your Soul Power into the gemstones, and you will be able to take things out freely."

Tang San nodded and injected some Soul Power to try it.

Then, the air suddenly fell silent.

He looked at Yu Xiaogang with a grave expression.

"Godfather, why can't I sense the existence of any space at all?"

Yu Xiaogang frowned.

"How is that possible? I even used it this morning."

He reached out and took the belt from Tang San's hands, then smiled confidently.

"Watch your godfather demonstrate it for you. Learn carefully, understand?"

Tang San nodded repeatedly.

At the side, Ye Xian could only lift the curtain by the carriage window and turn his head to look at the scenery outside.

If he kept looking at Tang San and Yu Xiaogang,

he feared he would not be able to stop himself from laughing.

"What is going on?"

Yu Xiaogang looked utterly dumbfounded.

After injecting Soul Power, he truly could not sense the existence of any space, just as Tang San had said.

The belt had not broken after more than thirty years of use.

Why did it have to break at this moment?

Ding! Encounter modification successful!

Congratulations, host! You have obtained: A one-hundred-cubic-meter Storage Soul Tool!

The reward has been placed in the system warehouse. The host may claim it at any time!

Listening to the notification of his reward arriving in his mind,

the corners of Ye Xian's lips rose involuntarily.

"You know, the scenery is actually pretty nice."

Soul Hunting Forest was four hundred li away from Notting City.

It was not until noon the next day that the three of them reached their destination.

After passing through the noisy market outside the forest, they arrived at the entrance near the forest's outer perimeter.

Yu Xiaogang put on an act and took out Spirit Hall's token, then smoothly entered Soul Hunting Forest.

"Come out, Luo Sanpao!"

The moment they arrived at the forest's outer perimeter, Yu Xiaogang shouted loudly.

Immediately afterward, a faint purple Soul Power spread around his body.

Two yellow soul rings rose beneath his feet.

The next moment, a strangely shaped creature appeared out of thin air on the ground.

It looked like both a pig and a dog.

It was unspeakably ugly.

Seeing Yu Xiaogang's Martial Soul, Ye Xian was clearly not mentally prepared enough.

It was just too damn absurd!

Martial Soul Mutation was not supposed to mutate like this, was it?

How had the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon turned into something like this?

Are you sure some old pig from next door did not pay a visit back then?

Tang San, on the other hand, was equally shocked.

It was only because Yu Xiaogang was his godfather.

If this thing had been anyone else's Martial Soul, Tang San would have been unable to stop himself from laughing.

"This is my Martial Soul. Its name is Luo Sanpao."

Yu Xiaogang explained it to the two of them, though he felt somewhat guilty.

His Martial Soul really did hurt his image.

Especially since his only two soul skills were both farting.

Not only could it only fart three times in total, but it had to eat white radishes first.

He suddenly thought of those Martial Souls that had become incredibly powerful through mutation.

He could not help but sigh inwardly.

They were both mutations, so why did This Old Man's turn into something like this?!

"Sanpao, lead the way!"

At Yu Xiaogang's command, Luo Sanpao immediately walked at the front to clear the path.

They were currently still at the outskirts of Soul Hunting Forest.

Although they soon encountered several Soul Beasts,

these weak Soul Beasts were only ten years old, or even just a few years old.

Naturally, Yu Xiaogang did not make a move against them.

"The choice of soul rings must be made carefully. Every soul ring is irreplaceable."

Just then, Yu Xiaogang's voice came from ahead.

He reached out and rubbed Tang San's head, as naturally as if he were petting his own son.

With an exceedingly solemn expression, he continued seriously.

"When advancing from a Soul Scholar to a Soul Master, you can absorb a hundred-year soul ring."

"More precisely, a soul ring from a Soul Beast whose cultivation is below four hundred and twenty-three years!"

"So your First Soul Ring should get as close to that limit as possible."

"Your godfather will also do everything in his power to hunt a Soul Beast close to that age for you!"

Hearing his godfather's vast knowledge and theories,

Tang San instantly felt incomparably honored.

Being the Great Master's disciple truly was the wisest choice he had ever made.

Originally, Tang San had been terribly depressed after receiving an old belt that was completely useless.

But after Yu Xiaogang's relentless coaxing and manipulation, Tang San was now in an excellent mood.

Just then, Yu Xiaogang suddenly turned around, his gaze landing on Ye Xian.

"The same goes for you, Ye Xian."

"The First Soul Ring is extremely important to a Soul Master. You cannot be careless about it."
