Lin Li pushed open the door and entered. A middle-aged man dressed in a red shirt and tight black leather pants sat on a wooden chair, engrossed in a book.

Seeing Lin Li enter, surprise flashed through the man's narrow eyes. "Little girl, did you come to the wrong place? We don't awaken martial souls here. We only register Soul Masters and issue Soul Master's Handbooks."

Lin Li shook her head. "Uncle, I'm here to register as a Soul Master."

Wang Yan paused slightly, then quickly took out a crystal ball as large as a basketball from a cabinet beneath the desk. Rising to walk over to her, his voice unconsciously softened. "Little girl, place your hand on the crystal and let me see your Soul Power."

Lin Li nodded. The moment she stretched out her little hand, the crystal burst forth with dazzling light. Wang Yan's eyes widened in shock as he cried, "Fourteenth-level Soul Power!"

Lin Li was startled when she heard it was level fourteen, but then she recalled the souls of the Wind Baboon and Nether Dark Crow devoured by the Blood Fiend Demonic Phoenix. She said softly, "My First Spirit Ring came from a hundred-year-old Nether Dark Crow that was compatible with my martial soul. That's probably why."

Upon hearing the name Nether Dark Crow, Wang Yan said softly, "No wonder. Nether Dark Crows are an extremely difficult type of Soul Beast to deal with!"

He said solemnly, "May Uncle know your martial soul?"

Lin Li immediately replied, "My martial soul is the Black Phoenix."

At the word phoenix, Wang Yan's pupils abruptly contracted. Whether it was a phoenix or a True Dragon, both were among the most supreme martial souls!

He immediately said, "Then would you be willing to join Spirit Hall? I believe Spirit Hall would certainly spare no effort in nurturing you!"

Lin Li softly replied, "No need. My father hoped that I would become a Rogue Soul Master." Her childish voice made her sound especially well-behaved.

Wang Yan did not say anything further. He sighed. "If you change your mind, you can come back and find me. I believe Spirit Hall would certainly spare no effort in nurturing you!"

Then, he handed her a handbook made of some unknown metal, along with ten Gold Soul Coins.

Looking at the Gold Soul Coins, Lin Li asked in confusion, "Grandmaster Wang Yan, did you give me the wrong amount? Soul Masters can only claim one Gold Soul Coin!"

Wang Yan looked at her, a trace of pity flashing in his eyes. "Little girl, you should clean the blood off your body. Consider these ten Gold Soul Coins my investment in you!"

Lin Li froze upon hearing that. Looking at the scrape on her arm from yesterday's hunt for the Nether Dark Crow, she fell silent and accepted the Gold Soul Coins and her certificate handbook.

She bowed to Wang Yan. "Thank you, Grandmaster Wang. If you ever need anything in the future, Lin Li will certainly do her utmost."

She actually still had some money, but she accepted Wang Yan's kindness.

Wang Yan smiled warmly. His rough, resolute face somehow gained a touch of refinement. Jokingly, he said, "Then I have the favor of a future little Titled Douluo!"

Lin Li returned his smile. After Wang Yan gave her a few more reminders, he watched the little girl's retreating figure and let out a quiet sigh.

He said softly, "Brother Lin, I didn't expect your daughter to be so grown up already."

Lin Yan had been a Spirit Hall Soul Master himself, and he was even a Four-Ring Spirit Elder. Wang Yan had naturally dealt with him before. When he saw the name Lin Yan listed under Lin Li's father, he had already confirmed it.

He could not help but say, "You wanted your daughter to become a Rogue Soul Master? That's not a bad choice either!"

Lin Li had no idea Wang Yan had already uncovered everything about her. After saying goodbye to the two guards on duty, she could not help falling into confusion...

Utter confusion. Since Father Lin and Mother Lin had died, her entire heart had felt hollow. She was like a piece of driftwood floating uncertainly on the water's surface. She let out a faint sigh.

Thinking of her earlier plans, she intended to enroll in a Junior Spirit Master Academy and systematically study the different types of Soul Beasts. It was also time for her to learn the Death God Art, Star Attraction, and those two techniques!

She murmured softly, "There are still six years until the plot begins!"

As Lin Li asked passersby for directions, she searched for the largest Junior Spirit Master Academy in Saint Er CitySaint Er Junior Soul Master Academy!

In less than the time it took to burn an incense stick, Lin Li had arrived at the entrance of Saint Er Junior Soul Master Academy.

It had to be said that the overall architecture of Douluo Continent truly resembled that of Western Europe. Though it incorporated a degree of ancient Eastern solemnity and grandeur, it was still mostly Western-style buildings!

There were no skyscrapers like in her previous life, but there was a greater sense of Western European delicacy and elegance.

At that moment, a man dressed in a black cotton short-sleeved shirt and long pants emerged from the gates of Saint Er Junior Soul Master Academy.

He was not particularly handsome, merely ordinary-looking, and stood around one meter seventy tall. The bulging muscles on his body and the Soul Power fluctuations he unconsciously gave off both showed that he was also a Soul Master!

Zhou Tian looked at the little girl standing before him. She wore a short top and shorts made of black silk! Her face was haggard, and she looked extremely tired, but her Phoenix Eyes were filled with sharpness.

He felt too embarrassed to put on a cold face before a little girl, so he said gently, "Little girl, this is a Soul Master Academy. You'll need a certificate from Spirit Hall to enter."

He tried his best to soften his voice, hoping not to frighten her, when he suddenly heard the crisp voice of the little girl before him. "Big brother, I'm already a Soul Master!"
