Though Xie Yue knew he was no match, he still unleashed a soul skill at Ye Xiaobao.

Ye Xiaobao found himself admiring Xie Yue somewhat. Just as Xie Yue's soul skill was about to hit him, he flashed behind Xie Yue.

Xie Yue had not expected Ye Xiaobao to be so fast. "Second soul skill..."

Before he could use his second soul skill, a chop to the back of the neck knocked him unconscious.

Seeing Xie Yue knocked out as well, Yan immediately lost his mind.

As expected, he followed in the footsteps of Xie Yue and his sister.

Looking at the three people lying on the ground, Ye Xiaobao suddenly regretted not leaving one conscious. Now he had to find someone to clean up the mess himself.

High in the sky.

Demon Subduing Douluo was quite gratified. He nodded and said:

"As expected of my disciple. My disciple has the potential to become a god."

Bibi Dong glanced at Demon Subduing Douluo, snorted coldly, and flew away. She thought to herself, When I get back, I must have a good talk with Xiaobao. He mustn't let that bastard fool him.

Thousand Jun Douluo also felt frustrated at his brother's failure to meet expectations. How could his younger brother be so shameless? Stealing someone else's disciple right in front of the boy's teacher was utterly embarrassing.

He snorted coldly as well, left behind the words "What a disgrace," and flew away.

"Are you even my brother? You won't even help me steal a disciple. Outrageous."

In the end, only Demon Subduing Douluo's complaint remained in the sky. He himself had already vanished without a trace.

After Ye Xiaobao returned to his courtyard, he went straight into the Tenfold Gravity Simulation Formation, unwilling to waste even a single minute.

Four hours later, he finished cultivating. As soon as he stepped out of the formation, he saw that his eldest brother had been waiting outside.

"Xiaobao, do you have time? I want to talk to you about something."

Seeing his younger brother emerge, Ye Dabao stepped forward and said.

"Well..."

Seeing his elder brother hesitate, Ye Xiaobao feared that he had been bullied in Spirit Hall and asked:

"Big Brother, we're brothers. Just say it. Did someone offend you?"

Ye Dabao lowered his head, looking somewhat embarrassed.

"No one offended me. The food here is good, the accommodations are good, everything is good. It's just..."

Ye Xiaobao grew a little anxious. His elder brother was good in every way, except that he was too honest.

"Big Brother, just say what you want to say. Why are you still embarrassed around me?"

He did not know what was wrong with his elder brother. Ever since entering Spirit Hall, he had been focused on cultivating, so he had no idea what his brother had been thinking.

"Xiaobao, it's because your brother is useless. I can't take care of you and only cause you trouble. It's just that... I really can't get used to living here. I just want to..."

As he spoke, Ye Dabao lowered his head again.

Though Ye Xiaobao looked only a little over ten years old, he had lived more than twenty years counting his previous life. He instantly understood what his elder brother meant.

His elder brother did not want to stay in Spirit Hall anymore!

He had originally wanted his brother to become a soul master, but he had asked Bibi Dong and the two consecrated elders, Demon Subduing and Thousand Jun. Someone with Zero Innate Soul Power truly could not become a soul master and could only remain an ordinary person for life.

Unless a god intervened!

"Big Brother, what do you want to do now?"

"Don't worry. Whatever decision you make, your little brother will support you."

Hearing this, Ye Dabao was deeply moved. He finally made up his mind and said:

"I don't have much going for me. I just want to go back to Father's Blacksmith Shop and become a blacksmith. It was passed down by Father, after all, and I don't have any other skills."

"But the Blacksmith Shop is with Uncle. Will that cause you any trouble?"

Ye Xiaobao had not expected his elder brother's wish to be so simple. Rather than letting him live miserably in Spirit Hall, it would be better to let him do the work he liked.

Uncle would surely be willing to hand over the Blacksmith Shop. And if he was not willing, that was fine too. Ye Xiaobao had nine ways to make him willing. Nine ways!

Besides, he did not believe that anyone in Spirit City would still dare to bully his elder brother.

"Don't worry, Big Brother. Call Dong Bo over later, and we'll go find Uncle and have a proper talk with him."

Hearing his younger brother agree, Ye Dabao was overjoyed. He had wanted to bring it up long ago, but seeing how desperately his brother had cultivated over the past half year, he had truly felt too embarrassed to speak.

Life in Spirit Hall felt too unreal to him.

He still preferred the smell of the Blacksmith Shop...

The three of them left Spirit Hall. Rather than taking a carriage, they chose to walk.

Spirit City was already the most magnificent city on the continent. Its bustling streets teemed with people, and as Ye Xiaobao walked along its avenues, his heart gradually settled.

The past half year of frenzied cultivation had kept both his body and mind in a constant state of tension. Now that he suddenly relaxed, he unexpectedly entered a mysterious and profound state.

Even as they continued walking, neither Ye Dabao nor Dong Bo noticed that anything was amiss.

At dusk.

The lingering glow of the setting sun spilled across the vast city, as though draping it in rippling gold.

The pedestrians on the road seemed to freeze. In that instant, the entire world became clearer.

It was an elevation of the soul.

Ye Xiaobao gradually came back to his senses. Though this moment of enlightenment had not increased his Soul Power, it had greatly strengthened his spiritual power.

If he encountered Hu Liena's charm again, he felt he could directly ignore it.

Moreover, the unstable foundation caused by the rapid growth of his Soul Power after awakening had also vanished completely during this enlightenment.

Before they knew it, the three had arrived at the familiar Blacksmith Shop on Nolan Street.

At the entrance of the Blacksmith Shop hung a large iron sign.

What met their eyes was a burly young man in gray, around twenty years old, speaking with a young soul master. The badge on the soul master's brown clothing indicated that he was a Great Soul Master.

At the Blacksmith Shop entrance, the burly young man held a gleaming silver suit of armor and vigorously tried to sell it.

"This is the most valuable armor in our Blacksmith Shop. It can even withstand attacks from a Soul Elder. Three hundred and fifty Gold Soul Coins is really not expensive."

"I can tell at a glance that you're a man of status. With this armor on, you'll definitely captivate countless female soul masters!"

The burly young man was Ye Xiaobao's cousin, Ye Daqiang. Of course, Ye Daqiang also had a younger brother named Ye Xiaoqiang, who was three years older than Ye Xiaobao.

"Cousin, got a customer?"

"Where's Uncle?"

Ye Xiaobao stepped forward and asked with a smile, his voice carrying a trace of spiritual power.

The Great Soul Master, whose mind had been muddled by the sales pitch, instantly came to his senses.

"You have relatives here? Then I'll go back and think it over first."

Ignoring Ye Daqiang's attempts to hold him back, the Great Soul Master pulled free and left.

Seeing that a deal that had nearly been sealed was gone, Ye Daqiang's face immediately fell.

Naturally, he recognized these two cousins. After all, this Blacksmith Shop had been "bought" from their family. It had only been half a year since they last met, but both of them had grown much plumper, especially Ye Xiaobao, who had shot up in height.

"My father isn't here. What are you two doing here?"

"I'm telling you, I'm very busy. I don't have time to entertain you."

But as though he had thought of something, he added:
