Level Fifteen Soul Power, Changes Brought by the Butterfly Effect
The thick tree trunk crashed to the ground with a thunderous boom,
kicking up a huge cloud of dust.
The birds perched on the surrounding trees were startled into instantly flying away in every direction.
"So this is your First Soul Skill, Pea... Shooter?"
Yu Xiaogang could not help but reassess the Pea Shooter before him.
Ye Fan gently shook his head.
"I named my First Soul Skill Summoning."
"Each time I use the skill, I can summon something different."
No matter what Soul Ring he absorbed, the Soul Skill he obtained would always be the same.
Ye Fan's first Soul Ring flashed again.
This time, a Sunflower appeared.
Two very basic plants.
He could also summon Wall-nuts, Potato Mines, Sun Shrooms, Puff-shrooms, Fume-shrooms, and Cabbage-pults,
but he would not show those to Yu Xiaogang.
Looking at the two plants,
Yu Xiaogang was completely dumbfounded.
He had never seen such an abstract Soul Skill, one with entirely different functions.
Each one could be treated as a completely separate Soul Skill.
"It can actually summon different plants."
Yu Xiaogang was utterly stunned.
Compared to that,
wasn't Tang San nothing more than a complete piece of trash?
"There are zombies besides plants, too."
Ye Fan's first Soul Ring flashed once more.
This time, he used the power of the Zombie Encyclopedia.
With a flash of black light, an Ordinary Zombie the size of an adult, dressed in a suit and tie, appeared.
He summoned again right afterward.
This time, he summoned an Imp Zombie.
The first Soul Ring of the Zombie Encyclopedia could summon relatively few things, only three kinds in total.
He did not summon the Roadblock Zombie with a roadblock on its head. He had to keep something in reserve.
If he summoned everything, Ye Fan's Soul Power would likely be nearly depleted.
If he had not possessed double Soul Power, he would not even have enough to finish summoning them all.
Although the two encyclopedias could summon a large number of plants and zombies, the Soul Power consumption was also enormous,
and these summons also had a time limit.
Where there were strengths, there would naturally be weaknesses.
Both of them had obtained their Soul Rings, so there was no longer any need to remain in Soul Hunting Forest.
The three of them continued walking toward the exit of Soul Hunting Forest.
After reaching the small town outside the forest, they rented a carriage and returned to Notting Junior Soul Master Academy.
This time, Yu Xiaogang could be said to have suffered severe injuries,
but fortunately, they did not affect his mobility.
After returning to Notting College,
Tang San and the other returned to Yu Xiaogang's room,
while Ye Fan went back to Seventh Dorm for Work-study Students.
There was no one else in Seventh Dorm at the moment. Judging by the time, they were all still in class.
He sat cross-legged on his bed,
then spread both hands open.
Two encyclopedias appeared in his hands, one on the left and one on the right.
Two purple Soul Rings overlapped beneath him, radiating an intense purple glow.
Ye Fan took out the thousand-year Soul Ring age enhancement card from the system storage space
and used it directly on his first Soul Ring.
The card transformed into a streak of light, split into two, and landed on the two encyclopedias.
The light on the purple Soul Rings grew even richer.
At that moment, the Soul Rings were nearly three thousand years old.
Ye Fan could clearly feel his physique beginning to improve once again.
He looked toward the two encyclopedias.
Within the spaces inside them were the figures of plants and zombies.
They, too, were continuously growing stronger.
The Pea Shooter's height and attack power had both increased.
If it attacked that thick tree trunk again, it would need even fewer peas.
The increase in Soul Ring age also came with an increase in Soul Power.
The clearest change was that summoning all his summons had previously consumed seventy or eighty percent of his Soul Power, but now it only consumed sixty or seventy percent.
Ye Fan was now curious about the extent to which his Soul Power Level had risen after absorbing a Soul Ring nearly three thousand years old.
He could only go to Spirit Hall in Notting City to test his Soul Power Level.
He left the dormitory and headed outside.
The bell signaling the end of class rang.
The students leaving the classrooms did not head toward the cafeteria or dormitories.
Instead, they hurried toward the training grounds.
Only then did Ye Fan remember that, according to the original plot, the Work-study Students seemed to be fighting Xiao Chenyu today.
Xiao Chenyu provoked Xiao Wu, Tang San stood up for her, and in the end, Xiao Wu became everyone's big sister.
However, Ye Fan had no interest in standing up for Xiao Wu.
After asking around briefly in Notting City, he quickly found the Notting City Spirit Hall.
After he stated that he had come to test his Soul Power Level, the young Spirit Hall gatekeeper did not stop him and let him inside.
"Just go to the reception hall and find Master Ma Xiunuo."
Led by a staff member, Ye Fan went up to the second floor and met Master Ma Xiunuo in his office.
"You want to test your Soul Power Level and undergo Soul Master certification?"
Master Ma Xiunuo looked somewhat astonished. "Did I hear you correctly? You're only six years old, aren't you?"
Ye Fan smiled faintly.
"I have Innate Full Soul Power."
Ma Xiunuo praised him twice.
"No wonder, no wonder."
"What a talent."
"Release your martial soul."
Ye Fan opened both hands.
Two encyclopedias appeared, one in each hand. Beneath his feet, two overlapping Soul Rings emitted an intense yellow glow.
"Two books as martial souls?"
"What a strange mutated martial soul."
Ma Xiunuo took out a yellow crystal ball.
"Place your right hand on it. If nothing unexpected happens, you should have Level Eleven Soul Power."
When Ye Fan placed his right hand on it,
the pale yellow crystal ball suddenly burst forth with a brilliant radiance.
Master Ma Xiunuo's eyes widened in shock.
"Le... Level Fifteen Soul Power?"
"How is that possible!"
"Could it be because the Soul Ring itself was powerful, and it also increased his Soul Power?"
"But even so, it shouldn't have jumped four levels at once."
He simply could not understand why.
However, when Ye Fan learned that he had Level Fifteen Soul Power, he felt that it was perfectly normal.
That was a Soul Ring nearly three thousand years old. He even felt the increase was a little low, as though some inexplicable force had docked his Soul Power.
When Ye Fan left Spirit Hall, he received a Spirit Hall Soul Master badge and one Gold Soul Coin.
However, this single Gold Soul Coin was better than nothing.
Ye Fan had just stepped out through the gates of Spirit Hall
when the system's voice suddenly rang out.
Plot modification successful. Tang San was taught a lesson by Boss Xiao, and Xiao Wu's favorability toward him greatly decreased. Reward: the favorability of the opposite sex toward you greatly increases.
Ye Fan immediately froze.
The plot had been altered even though he had done nothing?
Could this be the legendary butterfly effect?
He gained another bit of understanding about the system. The butterfly effect also came with rewards.
He felt that even if he did nothing now and simply let the bullets fly for a while, Tang San would later bring him plenty of rewards through all sorts of changes.
It was just that this reward felt rather useless.
Favorability was tied to strength and wealth.
When everyone was strangers,
even the lowest favorability from the Spirit Hall Pope would be higher than the highest favorability from a beggar.
