Dai Yichen's Plans for the Future, the Effects of Whale Rubber!

A combination of factors had led to Tang San needing roughly two years of Mysterious Heaven Skill cultivation before he could bring it to perfection at the first level.

However, if he truly wanted to verify the theory of whether congenital deficiencies and malnutrition affected Innate Soul Power, he would need to conduct deliberate experiments.

For example, Old Jack of Holy Soul Village, who had left a deep impression on him, possessed a radish martial soul, while some villagers possessed sickle martial souls.

Generally speaking, the former could be classified as a food-type martial soul and the latter as a power attack-type martial soul. If Dai Yichen had to classify them, both would fall within the category of ordinary martial souls rather than useless martial souls like Blue Silver Grass.

Yet when he had watched it back then, he had been told that neither of them had awakened Soul Power. That had left him deeply puzzled. Could this also have been related to congenital deficiencies?

An idea suddenly surfaced in Dai Yichen's mind. Once he became powerful enough and gained the right to speak, he could use several civilian villages near Star Luo City as experimental sites.

If newborn infants appeared, then the Star Luo Imperial Family would provide all their nutritional needs until their Martial Soul Awakening. If more civilians awakened Soul Power, that would provide certain data to support Dai Yichen's theory.

Now that he was a prince of the Star Luo Empire, everything he did would not only be for himself, but also for the entire empire.

If Spirit Hall could awaken martial souls for civilians free of charge, why couldn't the Star Luo Empire do the same?

No money?

Would the nobles object?

Once his strength reached a certain level, what did those nobles who only knew how to indulge themselves amount to?

As someone from the modern age in his previous life, Dai Yichen understood very well how important public welfare was to an empire. Water could carry a boat, but it could also overturn it. Spirit Hall had seized upon this point and continuously expanded the soul master population under its control.

It was precisely because the two great empires did not care much about this and considered civilians beneath them that Spirit Hall had won the people's support. By the time the two great empires realized what was happening, it was already too late. Spirit Hall had gained enough strength to establish the Spirit Hall Empire!

Moreover, a large portion of the soul master subsidies Spirit Hall distributed to civilians had actually been paid for by the two great empires. The Martial Soul Sub-Halls scattered throughout the land merely acted as distributors. Those civilians who received the subsidies would only remember Spirit Hall's kindness, not the two great empires'.

Of course, the reason the two great empires paid that money was largely because Spirit Hall was so powerful that they feared it and had no choice but to compromise.

If he had been reborn into this world as an ordinary civilian, his heart would definitely have leaned toward Spirit Hall, since it truly provided help. But now, he was the Fourth Prince of the Star Luo Empire, so he had no choice but to consider the empire. He could not simply watch Spirit Hall grow strong enough to strike against them, could he?

Gradually, a preliminary plan formed in Dai Yichen's heart. At the latest, after defeating Dai Weisi at the age of twelve, he would find a way to have Dai Yutian carry out a series of reforms!

They would be changing the imperial family's competition rules anyway. One more change would make no difference!

Why was Spirit Hall allowed to establish its sub-halls in most towns and cities throughout the empire?

Why should civilian soul masters who belonged to this empire constantly be drawn in by Spirit Hall?

He would slowly change this situation and make these civilian soul masters serve the empire!

As for whether those civilian soul masters would be looked down upon by the great nobles because of their status, there would naturally be corresponding solutions when the time came!

As Dai Yichen wrote in his diary, these thoughts suddenly emerged in his mind. He knew they would be difficult to carry out and might even be thankless. As a noble with Innate Full Soul Power and a system, the wisest way to live was really to keep his head down and take care of himself.

Yet he always felt that he needed to do something. Perhaps it was the influence of his memories from his previous life. Having been born into the imperial family, he held a special sentiment toward public welfare and unification.

He also suddenly discovered one benefit of writing in his diary every day. Whenever he wrote about someone on the continent, his complaints would continuously deepen his impression of this world. Sometimes, they even prompted inward reflection. Just like now, he had set a small goal for his future.

While Dai Yichen was lost in thought, The women were also somewhat confused. Why had Dai Yichen's diary suddenly stopped?

Hadn't he only written half of it? What about Tang San and Ah Yin? Was that all?

Zhu Family.

At this moment, Zhu Ming, the head of the Zhu Family, had returned home and asked a servant, "Where are Zhuyun, Zhuyu, and Zhuqing?"

"Reporting to the family head, Second Miss went to cultivate early this morning. Eldest Miss went to wake Third Miss just now, but she still hasn't come out."

Zhu Ming could not help but sigh. He knew exactly how much pressure his second daughter was under, and her relationship with her eldest sister was not very good either. After all, in just a few years, they would have to fight to the death.

Zhu Ming thought to himself, Just wait. Better days will surely come!

Knock, knock, knock—

"Zhuyun, Zhuqing, are you awake yet?" Zhu Ming's voice carried in from outside.

Not long afterward, Zhu Zhuyun opened the door and looked at her father. "Father, Zhuqing is already up. What's wrong?"

Seeing his daughter, Zhu Ming rarely revealed a smile. "Yesterday, during Yichen's Martial Soul Awakening, it was proven that consuming Whale Rubber can improve a soul master's physique. Your Majesty has also decided to secretly search across the continent for higher-quality specimens to place in the imperial resource vault."

"As the Zhu Family is a Duke Mansion tied to the imperial family, we naturally received quite a lot as well. We can take out some suitable for the three of you sisters to absorb now and lay a foundation for the future."

Among the three sisters, Zhu Zhuqing, who had yet to awaken her martial soul, would benefit the most. If she began consuming hundred-year Whale Rubber over a long period now, the age of the first soul ring she absorbed in the future would definitely be quite high. With the accumulated advantages afterward, she could surpass her two sisters by quite a few years of soul ring age. To a certain extent, that represented combat strength!

"Father, isn't Whale Rubber an ingredient used to make aphrodisiacs? It can also improve one's physique?"

The effects of Whale Rubber were quite well known in noble circles. The older it was, the better its effects. Furthermore, Whale Rubber could not only be used to make aphrodisiacs, but also arousal drugs!

Zhu Ming smiled. "Zhuyun, you're right. Whale Rubber does indeed have those effects, but according to recent discoveries, those are merely side effects of consuming Whale Rubber. The older it is, the more pronounced the side effects become. But as long as the age of the Whale Rubber you absorb is suitable, your bodies will digest it on their own, and you won't have such intense reactions."
