Volume One, Chapter Six: Useless Martial Souls and Innate Full Soul Power. Light instantly gathered, and another strange object appeared in Su Xing's left palm. Not only that, the glow was so intense that it shone through the window and could vaguely be seen from outside! Seeing this, Su Yuntao accepted the stack of draft papers with both hands, coughed, and tucked them into his robes as though they were priceless treasures. Su Xing could clearly sense that some kind of Martial Soul seemed to have condensed in Su Yuntao's left hand as well. "..." Su Xing was utterly bewildered. Old Jack looked kindly at the two children before him, the smile never leaving his face. "A sickle? Blue Silver Grass? Innate Full Soul Power? Heavens!" "Hm?" Su Yuntao asked in confusion. Remembering that he himself had possessed only Level Two Soul Power when he awakened, Su Yuntao sighed silently. Su Xing waved at Su Yuntao, signaling for him to bring his ear closer. "Yes, Grandpa Jack." Tang San nodded. Su Yuntao shook his head and smiled. "Kid, it's fine. A sickle is pretty good too. You can help your village cut weeds in the future. That isn't bad at all!" Tang San knew that the reason he had Innate Full Soul Power was because he had cultivated the Mysterious Heaven Skill since childhood. "The village is no longer as poor as before. We have money now. Xiao Su can attend Nuoding Academy as a work-study student, and the village will cover Xiao San's tuition." "..." Su Xing. Tang San's heart stirred. He quietly placed his left hand behind his back, then gently opened it. A completely black hammer floated in his palm. "Xiao Su, Grandpa truly never expected you to have Innate Full Soul Power as well." "Xiao San, come on. Grandpa will visit your home first and have a proper talk with your drunkard father." Old Jack lowered his head and said to Tang San. Su Xing did not follow them. Instead, he ran outside the village, to a hundred-meter-high hill beside Holy Soul Village. "..." "Sigh!" Crack! After saying that, Old Jack waited until the other children had been taken away by their parents before bringing Tang San toward his family's Blacksmith Shop. Hearing this, Su Xing grinned. "Yes, I have it. You want it, right? But you have to agree to one condition." Su Yuntao glanced at Old Jack and sighed. "There is, but it's a pity." Tang San's heart stirred. He quietly placed his left hand behind his back, then gently opened it. A completely black hammer floated in his palm. Su Xing grinned helplessly. "Old Jack." Crack! Tang San's heart stirred. He quietly placed his left hand behind his back, then gently opened it. A completely black hammer floated in his palm. Golden light suddenly burst forth and filled the entire hall in an instant! Su Xing waved at Su Yuntao, signaling for him to bring his ear closer. Tang San's heart stirred. He quietly placed his left hand behind his back, then gently opened it. A completely black hammer floated in his palm. "..." Su Xing. This definitely was not some useless Martial Soul, nor was it an ordinary sickle. This definitely was not some useless Martial Soul, nor was it an ordinary sickle. After just one fleeting glance, Su Xing dared to conclude that this purple-black sickle was absolutely no ordinary thing. "Xiao San, come on. Grandpa will visit your home first and have a proper talk with your drunkard father." Old Jack lowered his head and said to Tang San. The door opened, and Old Jack hurried forward with a nervous expression. "Grandmaster, how did it go? Does any child from our village have a chance to become a Soul Master this year?" "Although Brother Su also has Innate Full Soul Power, it seems that I have two..." "A sickle? Blue Silver Grass? Innate Full Soul Power? Heavens!" How could anything given by the system be bad? Besides, there was everything his soul had seen in the Chaotic Void just now. The door opened, and Old Jack hurried forward with a nervous expression. "Grandmaster, how did it go? Does any child from our village have a chance to become a Soul Master this year?" One had been raised by him since childhood, while the other had grown up under his watch. Although their innate Martial Souls were not ideal, they still had a chance of becoming Soul Masters. After just one fleeting glance, Su Xing dared to conclude that this purple-black sickle was absolutely no ordinary thing. Tang San noticed that Su Xing did not seem to care about Innate Full Soul Power at all. It was more as though he had known about it beforehand. "Another Innate Full Soul Power?" "Old Jack." After saying that, Su Yuntao froze slightly. His eyes bulged wide with shock as he stared at Su Xing in disbelief. Brother Tao had originally wanted to save this kid a little face. Su Xing leaned close to Su Yuntao's ear and whispered a few words. "There are still three months until enrollment begins at Nuoding City Junior Soul Master Academy. Although our village only has one work-study student quota, that won't be a problem." Old Jack looked kindly at the two children before him, the smile never leaving his face. Tang San looked at the purple-black sickle and felt somewhat surprised. Su Yuntao glanced at Old Jack and sighed. "There is, but it's a pity." "Yes. In three months, if I come to enroll at Nuoding City Junior Soul Master Academy, I'll find you then. If I don't go to Nuoding City Junior Soul Master Academy, then consider the matter dropped." Su Xing smiled. One had been raised by him since childhood, while the other had grown up under his watch. Although their innate Martial Souls were not ideal, they still had a chance of becoming Soul Masters. Su Yuntao shook his head and smiled. "Kid, it's fine. A sickle is pretty good too. You can help your village cut weeds in the future. That isn't bad at all!" "Hm?" Su Yuntao asked in confusion. Su Xing thought about it. It was understandable that Old Jack was so surprised to learn that he also possessed Innate Full Soul Power. Brother Tao had originally wanted to save this kid a little face. "It looks like an ordinary sickle, but it is filled with mystery..." Tang San pondered. "Perhaps it is not necessarily a useless Martial Soul." Su Xing grinned helplessly. One had been raised by him since childhood, while the other had grown up under his watch. Although their innate Martial Souls were not ideal, they still had a chance of becoming Soul Masters. "All right, do you still want to test your Soul Power?" Su Yuntao sneered. "Why don't we just forget it?" As he spoke, Su Xing gently placed his palm on the Blue Crystal Ball... "A useless Martial Soul is still a useless Martial Soul. Even if he becomes a Soul Master... enough, I'm leaving. I still have to visit the next village." "Kid, do you have the complete set of that story at the village entrance?" "There are still three months until enrollment begins at Nuoding City Junior Soul Master Academy. Although our village only has one work-study student quota, that won't be a problem." Su Xing did not follow them. Instead, he ran outside the village, to a hundred-meter-high hill beside Holy Soul Village. "The village is no longer as poor as before. We have money now. Xiao Su can attend Nuoding Academy as a work-study student, and the village will cover Xiao San's tuition." Old Jack looked kindly at the two children before him, the smile never leaving his face. Brother Tao had originally wanted to save this kid a little face. If he had not transmigrated with his soul and possessed a system, a minor extra like him might have ended up like those children in the original story, without even a trace of Soul Power. "It looks like an ordinary sickle, but it is filled with mystery..." Tang San pondered. "Perhaps it is not necessarily a useless Martial Soul." Tang San's heart stirred. He quietly placed his left hand behind his back, then gently opened it. A completely black hammer floated in his palm. "Are you sure?" Su Yuntao asked in astonishment. "Sigh!" Perhaps Father knows the origin of this Martial Soul. Thinking this, Tang San shifted his gaze back to Su Xing. After saying that, Old Jack waited until the other children had been taken away by their parents before bringing Tang San toward his family's Blacksmith Shop. "Forget it? That won't do!" Before Tang San could ask about cultivating his Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul, Su Yuntao had already picked up his bag and headed outside. Remembering what he had said earlier, Su Yuntao's face reddened slightly with embarrassment. Su Yuntao glanced at Old Jack and sighed. "There is, but it's a pity." The Blue Crystal Ball gave off a faint cracking sound. Hearing this, delight appeared in Old Jack's eyes as he continued asking, "Grandmaster, what do you mean?" Su Xing paused, then waved his hand confidently. "It still has to be tested!" Su Xing quickly pulled his hand back, secretly alarmed. Damn, good thing I pulled back quickly. If this crystal ball exploded, wouldn't Spirit Hall drag me back to dissect me for research? "The village is no longer as poor as before. We have money now. Xiao Su can attend Nuoding Academy as a work-study student, and the village will cover Xiao San's tuition." How could anything given by the system be bad? Besides, there was everything his soul had seen in the Chaotic Void just now. "..." "It looks like an ordinary sickle, but it is filled with mystery..." Tang San pondered. "Perhaps it is not necessarily a useless Martial Soul." "..." Su Xing was utterly bewildered. As Su Xing gently placed his palm on the Blue Crystal Ball... "Another Innate Full Soul Power?" Hearing this, delight appeared in Old Jack's eyes as he continued asking, "Grandmaster, what do you mean?" Perhaps because of the useless Martial Soul, Su Yuntao suddenly thought of Xiao Yan from the story at the village entrance and found himself strangely interested in the rest of it. Su Yuntao glanced at Old Jack and sighed. "There is, but it's a pity." After seeing Su Yuntao off, Old Jack returned to the village Spirit Hall and looked at Su Xing and Tang San with great satisfaction. This definitely was not some useless Martial Soul, nor was it an ordinary sickle. Golden light suddenly burst forth and filled the entire hall in an instant! How could anything given by the system be bad? Besides, there was everything his soul had seen in the Chaotic Void just now. Old Jack looked kindly at the two children before him, the smile never leaving his face. "Brother Su also has Innate Full Soul Power?" Tang San was greatly shocked. Seeing this, Su Yuntao received the stack of draft papers with both hands, coughed, and tucked them into his robes as though they were priceless treasures. Su Xing paused, then waved his hand confidently. "It still has to be tested!" Su Xing waved at Su Yuntao, signaling for him to bring his ear closer.

Even if he becomes a Soul Master... enough, I'm leaving. I still have to visit the next village." Su Yuntao froze stiffly on the spot, as though turned to stone! As Su Xing gently placed his palm on the Blue Crystal Ball... Hearing this, delight appeared in Old Jack's eyes as he continued asking, "Grandmaster, what do you mean?" How could anything given by the system be bad? Besides, there was everything his soul had seen in the Chaotic Void just now. "The village is no longer as poor as before. We have money now. Xiao Su can attend Nuoding Academy as a work-study student, and the village will cover Xiao San's tuition." Old Jack frowned. Having served as village chief for so many years, he naturally understood what Innate Full Soul Power meant. Before Tang San could ask about cultivating his Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul, Su Yuntao had already picked up his bag and headed outside. Su Yuntao froze stiffly on the spot, as though turned to stone! One had been raised by him since childhood, while the other had grown up under his watch. Although their innate Martial Souls were not ideal, they still had a chance of becoming Soul Masters. "Among these nine children, only two possess Soul Power, and both have Innate Full Soul Power. One is all right—his Martial Soul is a sickle, so he has a chance of becoming a Battle Soul Master. The other's Martial Soul is Blue Silver Grass. You understand what a useless Martial Soul like Blue Silver Grass means, right?" On the final page of the draft papers, the words were scribbled messily: Soul Elder Xiao Yan battles his sworn enemy Xiao Yan in the Soul Gale Sect after a three-year agreement. The Blue Crystal Ball gave off a faint cracking sound. Old Jack frowned. Having served as village chief for so many years, he naturally understood what Innate Full Soul Power meant. Crack! As Su Xing gently placed his palm on the Blue Crystal Ball... Su Xing could clearly sense that some kind of Martial Soul seemed to have condensed in his left hand. Su Xing waved at Su Yuntao, signaling for him to bring his ear closer. At the thought that Holy Soul Village might produce two Soul Masters in the future, Old Jack smiled so broadly that he could not close his mouth. If he had not transmigrated with his soul and possessed a system, a minor extra like him might have ended up like those children in the original story, without even a trace of Soul Power. Tang San's heart stirred. He quietly placed his left hand behind his back, then gently opened it. A completely black hammer floated in his palm. The Blue Crystal Ball gave off a faint cracking sound.

Tang San knew that the reason he had Innate Full Soul Power was because he had cultivated the Mysterious Heaven Skill since childhood. "Yes, Grandpa Jack." Tang San nodded. As Su Xing gently placed his palm on the Blue Crystal Ball... "A sickle? Blue Silver Grass? Innate Full Soul Power? Heavens!" Over the past few years, Tang San had seen Su Xing act extremely lazy. He rarely even exercised, much less cultivated. "Brother Su also has Innate Full Soul Power?" Tang San was greatly shocked. "A sickle? Blue Silver Grass? Innate Full Soul Power? Heavens!" Su Yuntao shook his head and smiled. "Kid, it's fine. A sickle is pretty good too. You can help your village cut weeds in the future. That isn't bad at all!"
