As a transmigrator, Ye Feng clearly remembered that when Yu Xiaogang had wanted to take Tang San as his disciple, he had also said he wanted to be stubborn just once.

Now that Chen Xin had said something similar, did Sword Saint Chen Xin want to take Ye Feng as his disciple?

"Do you want to teach me about martial souls?" Ye Feng asked probingly, deep in thought. He had not forgotten that the system had said it would give him a Titled Douluo as a master.

The system had barely finished speaking when Sword Saint Chen Xin and Ning Fengzhi appeared. Ye Feng could hardly be blamed for making that assumption.

"You really are clever."

Sword Saint Chen Xin looked at Ye Feng with satisfaction, becoming even more pleased with him. "Exceptionally gifted and so intelligent. You are also the third soul master in a hundred years to awaken Twin Martial Souls. Become my disciple. From this day onward, you will be the direct disciple of me, Sword Saint Chen Xin."

"Will I get a Name-Giving Gift if I become your disciple?" Ye Feng asked with a smile.

"What?" Sword Saint Chen Xin asked in astonishment.

"I heard the people in the village say that after becoming a disciple, the master gives a Name-Giving Gift. Is that true?" Ye Feng asked seriously.

"A Name-Giving Gift?" Sword Saint Chen Xin murmured, repeating the words. He still had not recovered his senses.

"There isn't one? Does that only happen in the stories from novels?" Ye Feng pouted as he looked at Sword Saint Chen Xin, clearly feeling that something was missing.

To Sword Saint Chen Xin, Ye Feng's expression was utterly speechless. That was plainly the look of someone who had gotten the short end of the stick.

So, Ye Feng thought becoming his, Sword Saint Chen Xin's, disciple was a loss!

"Uncle Sword, this Little Child is truly sharp," Ning Fengzhi said, unable to laugh or cry as he looked at Ye Feng approvingly.

As the Sect Leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Ning Fengzhi knew that many disciples within the sect had wanted to become Chen Xin's disciples. Yet even after begging high and low, they had still failed.

And now, Ye Feng was becoming Chen Xin's disciple, yet the first thing out of his mouth was a demand for a Name-Giving Gift. If those who had once failed to become Chen Xin's disciples learned of this, who knew how they would feel?

"Mm."

Chen Xin nodded. Knowing that Ning Fengzhi also thought highly of Ye Feng, he yielded. "Of course there will be a Name-Giving Gift for becoming a disciple. Once the ceremony is complete, you will naturally receive one."

"Master, please accept your disciple's bow." Without the slightest hesitation, Ye Feng respectfully bowed to Sword Saint Chen Xin. This bow was performed with both knees on the ground.

"What are you doing?" Sword Saint Chen Xin asked in surprise.

"Becoming your disciple!" Ye Feng answered.

"Don't you know this is the etiquette used when meeting a monarch or one's birth parents? A bow is enough when becoming a disciple." Sword Saint Chen Xin smiled, a rare occurrence. Soon, he would have a disciple he could be proud of—one with Twin Martial Souls and Innate Full Soul Power at level thirty. When the time came, he could brag before Bone Douluo Gu Rong for the rest of his life.

"Heaven, earth, sovereign, parents, and teacher. A teacher for a day is a father for life. You should accept my kneeling bow." After speaking, Ye Feng kowtowed three times in succession to Sword Saint Chen Xin.

"Get up." With a wave of Sword Saint Chen Xin's hand, Soul Power transformed into a gust of wind and lifted Ye Feng to his feet.

Then Sword Saint Chen Xin waved his hand again, and an object glowing with silver light floated before Ye Feng.

"This is my Name-Giving Gift?" Ye Feng asked in delight. As a transmigrator, he knew exactly what this glowing thing was.

"That's right. This is the... mm, Name-Giving Gift I am giving you. It is called the Berserk Ape Sky-Supporting Right Arm Bone. It is a high-grade soul bone with an age of ninety thousand years. It possesses a skill that sends the user into a berserk state, instantly increasing attack power by one hundred percent," Sword Saint Chen Xin answered.

"Berserk Ape Sky-Supporting Right Arm Bone..." Ye Feng murmured.

Though it was not a hundred-thousand-year soul bone, it was still ninety thousand years old. Any soul bone over ten thousand years old was of high quality. If such a soul bone were to appear outside, it would surely trigger a bloody storm.

"The human body can obtain six kinds of soul bones: the head soul bone, torso bone, right arm bone, left arm bone, right leg bone, and left leg bone. Beyond those, there are also the rarer External Soul Bones. Sit cross-legged. I'll tell you how to absorb this soul bone," Sword Saint Chen Xin instructed.

"Yes, Master." Ye Feng nodded and took several deep breaths, calming his excited heart.

Not only had Ye Feng taken a Titled Douluo as his master, but he had also received a high-grade ninety-thousand-year soul bone from his master.

Under Sword Saint Chen Xin's guidance, Ye Feng absorbed the Berserk Ape Sky-Supporting Right Arm Bone on the spot.

This was a small square before the Spirit Hall of Holy Soul Village, a place few people visited normally. Even if someone came here, Chen Xin and Ning Fengzhi were present to guard Ye Feng.

After about half an hour, Ye Feng finished absorbing the Berserk Ape Sky-Supporting Right Arm Bone. He could feel the explosive power contained within his arm. With a single thought, his strength would double. He called this strange ability Double Combat Power.

"Ye Feng, come back to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect with us," Chen Xin invited.

"No, Master. I want to enter the Junior Soul Master Academy in Notting City and systematically study knowledge related to soul masters," Ye Feng said, refusing Chen Xin's goodwill. He possessed such a strange system, and in so little time, he had already gained so many benefits. Naturally, Ye Feng intended to stay by Tang San's side and keep gaining benefits, growing stronger and stronger.

If Ye Feng went to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, how would that differ from joining Spirit Hall? Once he arrived at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, the events that unfolded would no longer be ones Ye Feng knew. Naturally, he was unwilling.

Chen Xin spoke with Ye Feng for a while longer. Seeing how resolute Ye Feng was, he could only compromise. "Fine. But you must promise me one thing."

"What is it?" Ye Feng asked curiously.

"Without my permission, you must never attach any soul rings to your second martial soul before becoming a Titled Douluo," Chen Xin said solemnly.

"Alright, Master." Ye Feng agreed without hesitation. He knew Chen Xin made this demand because he wanted all the soul rings added to Ye Feng's second martial soul to be ten-thousand-year soul rings. Ye Feng paused, then asked playfully, "I can't attach soul rings to my second martial soul, but... can I attach soul rings to my third martial soul?"

Chen Xin was Ye Feng's master, and his Name-Giving Gift had been a priceless ninety-thousand-year soul bone. Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin were close friends, and the latter was also the Guardian Douluo of the former's sect. Ye Feng did not intend to hide the secret of his Three Lives Martial Soul from these two important people in his life.

Of course, that was only because Ye Feng knew the character of Chen Xin and Ning Fengzhi.

"What?"

"You have a third martial soul as well?"

Chen Xin and Ning Fengzhi stared at Ye Feng in utter shock, asking in voices filled with disbelief.
