Martial Soul Reforging: Darkin World Bow

"Next!"

Su Yuntao shook his head as he looked at Tang San, then turned his gaze to Ye Xian, the last one remaining.

Tang San looked utterly bewildered.

"That was it?"

This Martial Soul awakening had happened far too quickly.

He had not even reacted yet, much less understood what Su Yuntao had just said.

"Is my Martial Soul a useless Martial Soul?"

Tang San could not help murmuring to himself.

Clearly, he found the result hard to accept.

"Stop standing there. Didn't you hear me say next?"

Just then, Su Yuntao's impatient voice rang out.

If nothing unexpected happened, it would probably be difficult for these villages to produce another Soul Master this year.

A useless Martial Soul, the Blue Silver Flower?

So what if he had Innate Full Soul Power?

Even if he cultivated, there would be no future for him.

Tang San snapped out of it and hurriedly stepped back.

Then Ye Xian calmly walked to the center of the six black stones.

Su Yuntao nodded and said nothing further.

He simply raised his hand and injected Soul Power with the expressionless efficiency of an assembly line.

A faint golden glow gradually lit up.

Warm energy immediately enveloped Ye Xian's body.

Golden motes fluttered and danced within the golden barrier.

"Oh?"

Su Yuntao's tired eyes suddenly widened.

"There's hope?"

His gaze slowly fell upon Ye Xian's outstretched right hand.

The golden light gradually drew in, then all at once surged forth.

At the same time, a wooden bow appeared in Ye Xian's palm.

It was a plain wooden bow without the slightest decoration.

It looked just like the one old Wang Daye next door had made for his grandson out of branches.

A children's toy that inspired absolutely no desire to own it.

Su Yuntao frowned. He had originally thought this child might awaken a decent Martial Soul.

Who would have thought it would be a wooden bow?

He shook his head helplessly. Sure enough, he should not have held any expectations.

It was better to finish up quickly, head to the next village, complete his quota, and get off work early.

"A Weapon Soul, a wooden bow. Let me see whether you have Soul Power."

Su Yuntao calmly held the blue crystal ball out before Ye Xian.

Ye Xian immediately pressed his right hand against it.

The instant he touched it, a faint point of light appeared on the sphere.

Then came a second, then a third.

Points formed lines, lines formed planes, and blue light quickly spread across the entire surface of the sphere.

The dim blue radiance was strikingly similar to when Tang San had awakened his Soul Power earlier.

"Another one with Innate Full Soul Power!"

Su Yuntao, who had already given up hope, furrowed his brows again.

Were there really this many children with Innate Full Soul Power now?

For a moment, it all felt unreal to him.

He could not help but reveal a bitter smile.

This wooden bow was stronger than that Blue Silver Flower from earlier.

But it was still only a wooden bow.

Even if these two children barely managed to cultivate into Soul Masters,

they would probably find it difficult to make any major breakthroughs in the end.

Thinking of this, Su Yuntao regretfully shook his head.

Then he quickly packed his things.

He picked up his bag and headed outside.

As the door opened, Old Jack hurriedly approached Su Yuntao with a nervous expression.

"Battle Soul Master, do any of the children in our village have the potential to become Soul Masters this year?"

Su Yuntao looked at him and sighed.

"There are two, but it's a pity."

A flicker of uncertainty appeared in Old Jack's eyes as he cautiously asked,

"Great Master, what do you mean?"

Su Yuntao gently shook his head and looked toward Ye Xian and Tang San.

"Among this year's children, only two possess Soul Power."

"And both have Innate Full Soul Power."

"It's a pity their Martial Souls hold no advantages."

"If they wish to cultivate, they can come with me to Spirit Hall and give it a try."

A flash of delight crossed Old Jack's face.

In previous years, there had not been a single child with Soul Power.

This year, there were not only children with Soul Power, but two with Innate Full Soul Power.

He looked at Ye Xian and Tang San.

"Are you willing to follow the Battle Soul Master to Spirit Hall?"

Ye Xian immediately shook his head.

If he went to Spirit Hall, how could he trigger Chosen Encounters through the story's iconic scenes?

Wherever Tang San went, he would definitely go too.

Though Tang San's days might become a little harder because of it.

Su Yuntao did not mind. He casually waved his hand.

"But if there's a chance, you can let them attend a Soul Master Academy to learn specialized knowledge."

With that, he turned and left Holy Soul Village.

He did not even wait for Tang San to finish thinking it over.

Old Jack was not discouraged by this.

He was quite satisfied with this year's results.

These two children would be enough for him to brag to the village chiefs nearby.

After sending the other children home, Old Jack finally spoke.

"You two, tell Grandpa, are you willing to attend a specialized school and learn how Soul Masters cultivate?"

"Only there will you find the most accurate knowledge about Martial Souls."

The school he spoke of was naturally Notting Junior Spirit Master Academy.

Without a second thought, Ye Xian nodded.

Tang San, on the other hand, fell into deep thought, seemingly hesitant.

He was extremely interested in Martial Souls.

But the flower he had awakened seemed rather useless.

Of course, the most important issue was that his father, Tang Hao, had to agree.

What Tang San himself said did not matter at all.

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

"I'll go speak to him personally!"

Old Jack knew Tang Hao's temperament.

So he immediately left with Ye Xian and Tang San.

After taking Ye Xian home first, he followed Tang San into the house next door.

Although Holy Soul Village had only one work-study student slot at Notting Junior Spirit Master Academy,

if nothing unexpected happened, the nearby villages would be like every other year.

There would not be a single child with Soul Power.

When the time came, he would just ask the old village chief next door for one.

Holy Soul Village was about to produce two Soul Masters.

That old bastard would not dare refuse.

After returning home, Ye Xian tightly shut the doors and windows.

Only then did he summon the system in his mind.

"System, where is my mission reward from earlier?"

He had seen the Innate Full Soul Power.

But there was not even a trace of the Martial Soul Reforging Device.

Whoosh—!

The instant he spoke, a golden light screen materialized before Ye Xian.

If nothing unexpected happened, this was the system interface.

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

The Martial Soul Reforging Device has been placed in the system inventory!

The host may choose to activate and use it at any time!

Ye Xian suddenly understood.

He then directly opened the system inventory.

The light-screen interface changed, transforming into a storage space of individual slots.

At a glance, he spotted the hammer-shaped Martial Soul Reforging Device in the first slot.

At that moment, Ye Xian hesitated instead.

This thing seemed to have a bit of a gambler's nature to it.

If the reforging went badly in one shot, wouldn't his happy life for the rest of his days be ruined?

The Martial Soul Reforging Device will reforge the Martial Soul into a higher-grade Martial Soul with a 100% success rate.

Only then did Ye Xian relax. He immediately chose to use it.

Ding! Martial Soul Reforging Device used successfully!

The host's Martial Soul has been reforged into: Darkin World Bow!
