"I'm fine."
Tang San forced the words out.
"You're still saying you're fine after coughing up so much blood!"
Old Jack's face was full of worry.
"You're still saying you're fine."
"You've coughed up more blood than a slaughtered chicken. You're so weak."
"I really don't know what your father was thinking. There must be something wrong with his head!"
When Tang Hao heard that, his eyes widened as he was about to lose his temper, wanting to pull out the Clear Sky Hammer and give Old Jack a hit.
But when he remembered that it had indeed been because of him, he held himself back.
"How about this? Lord Soul Master happens to be coming today to awaken the Martial Souls of the children in our village."
"I'll ask Lord Soul Master to take a look."
Old Jack grabbed Tang San's hand with his left while supporting himself with a cane in the other.
He had originally been walking at a snail's pace, but now he was practically striding like the wind.
His legs were moving so fast, he could have pedaled a bicycle.
Ye Fan gaped in shock and quickly followed after them.
When Tang Hao heard Old Jack say he would find a Soul Master to examine him, he was no longer as worried.
Any Soul Master could handle a child's injuries with ease, and he could continue his disguise here.
Led by Old Jack, the two arrived at the village's Spirit Hall. In truth, it was nothing more than a brown wooden shack.
The other seven children were already waiting there.
Besides them, there was also a young man dressed in a fitted white outfit.
Su Yuntao.
After Su Yuntao exchanged a few simple words with Old Jack, he was about to begin the Martial Soul awakening.
Old Jack immediately asked him to take a look at Tang San's condition.
The two were fairly familiar with each other, and it was no trouble at all.
A strand of Soul Power entered Tang San's body.
Before long, Su Yuntao had easily healed Tang San's injuries.
"Why aren't you thanking Lord Soul Master?"
Tang San hurriedly thanked him.
"Alright, now we'll begin the Martial Soul awakening."
Su Yuntao waved his hand, not thinking much of it.
He had a heavy workload and had to visit several villages every day.
Su Yuntao quickly arranged six black stones into a hexagon on the ground and motioned for one of the children to stand inside.
"Don't be afraid of what you're about to see. If possible, you may become like this too. This is a Martial Soul!"
"Martial Soul Possession!"
"Lone Wolf!"
Su Yuntao shouted sharply and completed his Martial Soul Possession.
One white and one yellow soul ring slowly rose from beneath his feet.
Though he had warned them in advance, the children were still badly frightened.
After all, wolves were savage beasts. If it had been a little kitten instead, they probably would not have been scared and might even have wanted to pet its ears.
His Martial Soul awakening proceeded very quickly.
"Blue Silver Grass. Tool Martial Soul. No Soul Power. Next."
"Sickle. Tool Martial Soul. No Soul Power. Next."
Of the nine children, only Tang San and Ye Fan were soon left.
Ye Fan knew Tang San's Martial Souls perfectly well.
Blue Silver Grass in his right hand and the Clear Sky Hammer in his left.
But he had no idea what his own Martial Soul would be.
Still, he guessed it would be a useless Martial Soul. After all, there was not a single Soul Master in his family, so there was no such inheritance.
It might even awaken as Blue Silver Grass.
Tang San awakened his Martial Souls: Blue Silver Grass in his right hand, the Clear Sky Hammer in his left, and Innate Full Soul Power.
When Ye Fan saw the plot description, he instinctively began thinking about how to alter it.
After the plot was altered, he would receive rewards. The greater the alteration, the greater the reward.
Maybe he would be rewarded with a powerful Martial Soul.
Change Tang San's Innate Full Soul Power into innate zero Soul Power?
The moment the thought arose, Ye Fan shook his head inwardly.
It was useless.
It seemed that, for some special reason,
Blue Silver Grass had negatively affected the appearance of Twin Martial Souls.
Tang San had originally possessed no Soul Power. His Soul Power had been cultivated through the Mysterious Heaven Skill.
Change his hands into feet?
Blue Silver Grass in his right hand and the Clear Sky Hammer in his left foot?
That was useless too. Although Tang San's Martial Soul was in his left hand later on, he could still summon it into his right hand to use it.
At most, Tang San would have to take off his shoes before summoning his Martial Soul.
It would not change the fact that Tang San possessed two powerful Martial Souls.
Modifications included adding, deleting, altering, and swapping.
When he saw the final method, swapping,
Ye Fan suddenly had an idea.
Tang San awakened his Martial Souls: the Blue Silver Hammer in his right hand, Clear Sky Grass in his left, and Innate Full Soul Power.
According to the order, Tang San was the next to awaken his Martial Soul.
Tang San slowly stepped forward and stood in the center of the six black stones.
As a burst of blue light flashed,
Su Yuntao instantly knew what Tang San's Martial Soul was.
"Blue Silver Grass. Tool Martial Soul."
But the moment he finished speaking, he froze.
"No, it doesn't seem to be Blue Silver Grass. It mutated!"
Other Blue Silver Grass only had a single blade of grass, but the Blue Silver Grass in Tang San's hand was a whole bundle that eventually condensed into the shape of a hammer.
"Blue Silver Grass mutated and became a Blue Silver Hammer!"
At the same time, Tang San also sensed some movement in his left hand, but he did not reveal it.
"Place your hand on the Soul Power testing orb and test your Soul Power. Though I suppose you won't have any."
Su Yuntao still shook his head. "Even if your Martial Soul mutated, it only changed from a useless blade of grass into a useless hammer."
Tang San slowly placed his hand on it. The blue crystal orb, which had not shown the slightest reaction until now, suddenly erupted with dazzling blue light.
"It's actually Innate Full Soul Power!"
Su Yuntao's eyes instantly widened.
"Innate Full Soul Power, something rarely seen even once in a hundred years!"
The way he looked at the boy before him had completely changed, as though he were looking at a monster.
"Use your Blue Silver Hammer to strike the ground!"
"Let me see how strong its attack is."
At that moment, Su Yuntao looked at Tang San as though he were looking at his own little wife.
If he could send such an outstanding seedling to Spirit Hall, the reward he received would definitely be substantial.
"Alright, I'll try."
Tang San gripped the Blue Silver Hammer and slammed it into the ground.
"Bang!"
With a bang, the Blue Silver Hammer in Tang San's hand shattered apart, turning into Blue Silver Grass scattered all over the ground.
But it quickly condensed back into a Blue Silver Hammer under the effect of Soul Power.
As for the ground, not even a mark had been left in the soft soil.
Su Yuntao stared wide-eyed, feeling utterly disappointed.
The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.
"As expected, it's still a useless Martial Soul."
"Even if your Martial Soul were only a farming tool, it would still be much stronger than the useless Martial Soul Blue Silver Grass."
"If it had even the slightest bit of attack power, I could have taken you to Spirit Hall."
Plot modification successful. Tang San did not awaken Blue Silver Grass and the Clear Sky Hammer. Instead, he awakened the Blue Silver Hammer and Clear Sky Grass.
Reward...
Ye Fan instantly became immensely excited about the reward.
"Martial Soul!"
"It has to give me a powerful Martial Soul!"
