At present, Heavenly Path Academy had only five people in total.

It had practically become an exclusive training ground for the five of them. Ye Buyi only came by to check on them occasionally, and the area was truly desolate.

If one was not from Holy Soul Village, no one would have known that a primary Soul Master academy was hidden here.

But today, everything changed. The seeds Ye Wen had planted had finally sprouted.

At that moment, five boys and girls barely over six years old stood timidly before Ye Wen. Their gazes held admiration, reverence, and absolute faith in him.

They were all children born from Ye Wen's Soul Master cultivation plan, and every one of them possessed no less than level-five Innate Soul Power.

In the remote little city of Notting, they were unquestionably first-rate geniuses.

Moreover, Ye Wen had personally helped each of them awaken their Martial Souls.

After all, in a rural backwater that might not produce even one Soul Master in several years, the sudden appearance of five exceptionally gifted Soul Master seedlings would look suspicious no matter how one viewed it.

When helping the five children awaken their Martial Souls, Ye Wen had also come to realize the unfairness of this world. Although Spirit Hall officials awakened the Martial Souls of village children every year, those with Soul Power still ended up one step behind the children of wealthy merchants and nobles who paid to have their Martial Souls awakened in the city. That step might have seemed insignificant, but it truly widened the gap between commoners and wealthy nobles.

Since the five children had been born around the same time and belonged to families affiliated with the Ye Family, they had sworn siblinghood from a young age and addressed one another as brothers and sisters.

The eldest sister was named Su Qiaoqiao. She was the child of the family with the Needle Martial Soul, a very delicate and refined girl.

After Ye Wen's conditioning, her Martial Soul, which had originally not been particularly powerful, now possessed level-five Innate Soul Power and had even undergone a mutation.

It had become an advanced Martial Soul recorded in the Martial Soul compendium, known as the Embroidered Cloud Needle.

This Martial Soul had once enjoyed its glory. At the very least, it had produced a Soul Saint-level figure. That Soul Saint had even established a sect centered on weaving, though it later declined.

The second sister was named Hu Rou, another adorable little girl. However, compared to Su Qiaoqiao's elegance, Hu Rou was exceptionally lively. Other than behaving obediently before her elders, she was practically a little demon king in daily life, chasing geese, teasing dogs, and causing every kind of mischief.

Fortunately, Ye Wen did not want Hu Rou to become as arrogant and overbearing as Xiao Wu in Douluo 1, so he had given her no shortage of moral education.

As for Hu Rou's Martial Soul, whether due to luck or something else, it underwent a mutation despite her family's inherited rabbit Martial Soul. It was a major mutation, directly becoming the top-tier Soft Bone Rabbit Martial Soul, whose quality approached that of a Super Martial Soul.

Her Innate Soul Power had directly reached level six and a half, nearly level seven.

Although the original work did not describe the Soft Bone Rabbit in much detail, its two bug-like abilities—teleportation and Invincible Golden Body—were enough to reveal its value. Even if the Soft Bone Rabbit was not especially strong in combat, it was undoubtedly a top-tier Soul Beast when it came to escaping and defense.

The third child was named Xu Teng. His family's inherited Martial Soul was the Climbing Tiger, an ordinary parasitic plant, but after his awakening, it underwent earth-shaking changes.

The originally emerald-green Martial Soul leaves turned dark purple, and the Climbing Tiger's gripping pads became covered in dense, backward-facing barbs, looking extremely ferocious.

Through the Spirit Mark, Ye Wen quickly identified the true nature of this Martial Soul. It was a peculiar Soul Beast known as the Demonic Chapter Vine.

Unlike ordinary plant Soul Beasts, the Demonic Chapter Vine possessed extremely strong aggression. Normally, it resembled an ordinary plant, but once a weak Soul Beast entered its hunting range, its vines would shoot out and attach themselves directly to the Soul Beast. Due to their terrifying barbs, Soul Beasts caught by them would either die or be severely injured. If they could not escape immediately, the vines that followed would wrap around them and strangle and flay them alive.

Although it still could not compare with those top-tier Martial Souls, it was considered one of the best among top-tier Martial Souls.

Xu Teng's Innate Soul Power had even directly reached level seven.

Ye Wen found this situation extremely strange. His tonics certainly had some effect, but awakening two top-tier Martial Souls in succession looked suspicious no matter how he considered it. Unable to figure it out after much thought, Ye Wen could only attribute it to himself being favored by the fortune of the Douluo plane, causing those connected to him to receive some indescribable enhancement as well.

As for the fourth and fifth children, the fourth was a little fatty named Wang Bao, whose Martial Soul was an Alchemy Furnace.

That was right, Alchemy Furnaces did indeed exist on Douluo Continent. Otherwise, Tang San would not have been able to refine medicine at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well later on. However, since it had not yet been fitted with a Soul Ring, it only reached Ye Wen's waist. Still, its Innate Soul Power was not low, reaching level six. It was also an advanced Martial Soul.

The fifth was named Dongfang Jiaojiao, a little girl who looked very frail.

But another epic-level enhancement appeared during her awakening.

What she awakened was a family-inherited staff Martial Soul, as tall as she was.

The surface of the staff was carved with exquisite floral and plant patterns, while its top was set with a brilliant, sharply faceted golden gemstone that radiated a dense power of light.

Her Innate Soul Power was the highest among the five children, reaching level nine.

Moreover, according to Ye Wen's research, this Martial Soul came with a Light of Tranquility Domain that allowed people to cultivate without distracting thoughts. Thus, Ye Wen ultimately concluded that this staff Martial Soul was an entirely new Super Martial Soul, one not recorded in the Martial Soul catalog.

Since Dongfang Jiaojiao was not very educated, she wanted to ask her master, Ye Wen, to help name it. After pondering for a while, Ye Wen named this Super Martial Soul.

Tranquil Light Staff, a staff symbolizing peace, harmony, and light.

After the parents of these five families learned that their children possessed such talent, they became even more wholeheartedly convinced of Ye Wen. Their instruction for the children to remain loyal to Ye Wen also grew stronger by the day, resulting in the five children's immense respect for him.

Before they awakened their Martial Souls, Ye Wen had not accepted them as his disciples. However, he had still taught them to gradually strengthen their bodies through long-distance running and other methods. While it did not enhance their Soul Power or allow them to achieve pseudo-Innate Full Soul Power like Tang San, it had given them all sturdy physiques and laid a solid foundation for their future cultivation.

After Ye Wen spent some more time consolidating his strength and prepared to hunt for his Fifth Soul Ring, the five disciples also reached the threshold of level-ten Soul Masters.

However, since Heavenly Path Academy was not an officially established academy, Ye Wen had no way of obtaining permits for the Soul Hunting Forest for free.
