Another Trash Spirit, the Blind Douluo Su Yuntao

Innate Full Soul Power was an exceedingly rare occurrence across the entire Douluo Continent, yet Su Yuntao had unexpectedly encountered two in a row today!

Seeing that Bai Ge possessed Innate Full Soul Power, Su Yuntao became even more convinced that Bai Ge's Martial Soul was a Mutated Ghost Vine.

However, out of caution, Su Yuntao still decided to test it.

"Little friend, can you summon your Martial Soul?"

Slowly walking over to Bai Ge, Su Yuntao asked.

"Summon my Martial Soul? Like this?"

With a thought, the Cloud-Soaring Vine in Bai Ge's hand, which had previously seemed like nothing more than a phantom of light, rapidly solidified and grew into a Long Vine that was Entirely Black-Purple and covered in oval green leaves.

"Yes, exactly like that. Keep it summoned."

Seeing Bai Ge summon the Cloud-Soaring Vine, Su Yuntao quickly said.

"I understand."

Bai Ge nodded.

Let me see what you really are!

Gritting his teeth, Su Yuntao reached out and began stroking the Cloud-Soaring Vine. In his heart, he had already prepared himself to be poisoned.

But one second passed, then two, three, four... until an entire minute had gone by, Su Yuntao still felt perfectly normal, without the slightest sign of poisoning.

Not being poisoned should have been a good thing, but Su Yuntao felt terrible all over.

Damn it, this isn't a mutated Ghost Vine Martial Soul. It's just a darker-colored Wisteria Martial Soul!

Su Yuntao's face darkened.

One Blue Silver Grass with Innate Full Soul Power, and one Wisteria with Innate Full Soul Power.

Having encountered two unprecedented trash spirits with Innate Full Soul Power in a row, Su Yuntao truly did not know whether to consider himself lucky or unlucky.

Disappointed, Su Yuntao lowered the hand that had been touching the Cloud-Soaring Vine and sighed. "Your Martial Soul is a darker-colored Wisteria. It's also a Trash Spirit."

"Huh?!"

Hearing Su Yuntao's conclusion, Bai Ge froze.

His Martial Soul was clearly the Cloud-Soaring Vine. How had it become the trash spirit Wisteria?

But when he remembered that, in all the Douluo Continent fanfictions, Su Yuntao had Never Heard Of correctly identifying a Martial Soul and had always been blind, to the point that people mocked him as a Spirit Hall traitor and the Blind Douluo, Bai Ge suddenly did not know whether to laugh or cry.

Su Yuntao had no idea what Bai Ge was thinking. He assumed Bai Ge had simply been stunned by the sudden bolt from the blue.

"Respected Battle Spirit Master, are you leaving?"

After all the other Children had departed, Grandpa Jack saw Su Yuntao packing up to leave outside the Spirit Hall. He hurried into the hall and asked Su Yuntao.

"Yes, I'm leaving. Awakening the Martial Souls of nine children in a row has left me rather tired!"

Su Yuntao paused, speaking weakly.

He had Never Heard Of felt so exhausted before. This was not bodily exhaustion, but mental exhaustion. Things were simply too difficult for him!

"Then, Grandmaster, did any children in our village qualify to become Soul Masters?"

Grandpa Jack asked expectantly.

"Those two. Both have Innate Full Soul Power, but unfortunately, both possess Trash Spirits."

Pointing at Bai Ge and Tang San, who had yet to leave the hall, Su Yuntao sighed.

"Innate Full Soul Power? Trash Spirits?"

Hearing Su Yuntao's words, Grandpa Jack was also stunned. He had Never Heard Of something so bizarre.

"Here are their Martial Soul certificates. I'm leaving now."

Shaking his head regretfully, Su Yuntao stuffed the two Martial Soul certificates into Grandpa Jack's hands, then strode out of the Wooden House. Before long, he vanished into the distance.

"Ding! Mission completed. Congratulations, Host. You have successfully Awakened your Martial Soul. A Silver Rank Lottery chance has been issued. Would you like to draw?"

While Grandpa Jack was questioning Su Yuntao, the system's mission-completion notification suddenly rang out in Bai Ge's mind.

"Draw."

Since he had nothing else to do, Bai Ge nodded inwardly.

"Ding! The system is drawing..."

"Congratulations, Host. You have obtained the martial skill: Flash Step!"

The system's congratulatory voice rang out.

"Flash Step?"

Hearing the system's congratulations, Bai Ge froze.

Flash Step—judging by the name, it should have been a footwork or movement technique. Bai Ge knew quite a few abilities called Flash Step from Japanese anime, but the system had classified this Flash Step as a martial skill, which left Bai Ge somewhat puzzled.

"System, display the information."

With a thought, a virtual Attribute Panel immediately formed in Bai Ge's mind.

Name: Flash Step

Category: Martial Skill

Description: A footwork technique from a certain martial arts world. It can use a special circulation of True Qi to explosively unleash astonishing speed for short-distance movement, but this martial skill damages the muscles and cannot be used repeatedly in succession.

Meanwhile, although Grandpa Jack knew that Bai Ge and Tang San both possessed Trash Spirits, their Innate Full Soul Power talent alone was enough to put them above the vast majority of Soul Masters.

At the very least, after obtaining their first Spirit Rings and becoming Soul Masters, neither of them would need to worry about their future lives. Thus, Grandpa Jack was still extremely excited.

"Children, Sacred Soul Village has finally produced Soul Masters! And two at once! Grandpa is truly proud of you!"

After Su Yuntao left, Grandpa Jack walked tremblingly over to Tang San and Bai Ge, tears glistening in the corners of his eyes.

"Grandpa, don't worry. We will definitely work hard to become Spirit Sages and make our Sacred Soul Village truly live up to its name!"

Bai Ge knew that producing a Spirit Sage from Sacred Soul Village had always been Grandpa Jack's greatest wish. Now that Bai Ge was completely confident, he looked at the overwhelmed Grandpa Jack and spoke with utmost seriousness.

"Good children! Good children!"

After leaving the village's Spirit Hall Branch, Grandpa Jack led Bai Ge and Tang San along the roads of Sacred Soul Village.

"Xiao San, I never expected your talent to be so outstanding. It's just a pity that your Dad didn't pass down a good Martial Soul to you. Otherwise, perhaps you really could have become Sacred Soul Village's second Spirit Sage..."

Along the way, Grandpa Jack sighed deeply over the fact that Tang San possessed Innate Full Soul Power but had a Trash Spirit.

"Grandpa Jack, isn't Bai Ge also Innate Full Soul Power? And Bai Ge's Martial Soul is even better than mine. Maybe Bai Ge is the one who can become Sacred Soul Village's second Spirit Sage!"

Tang San was very modest in response to Grandpa Jack's lament.

But beside them, Bai Ge curled his lip.

What about your Second Martial Soul, the Clear Sky Hammer? Did you eat it?

"Ah, no matter what, I will definitely send Bai Ge to Nuoding City's Soul Master Academy for proper Soul Master training. Bai Ge's Dad and Mom didn't pass down a good Martial Soul to him, but they did leave him enough Gold Soul Coins. I absolutely won't let Bai Ge's talent go to waste like this."

Grandpa Jack sighed.

"But as for you, Xiao San, what are your plans? Do you want to attend Soul Master Academy with Bai Ge? Our village happens to have one Work-Study Student spot this year. If you want it, I'll give it to you."

Grandpa Jack looked at Tang San with concern.

"I'll have to ask my Dad first."

Though Tang San was somewhat tempted by Grandpa Jack's concern, he still shook his head.

But hearing Tang San mention Tang Hao gave Grandpa Jack a headache.

Because in all of Sacred Soul Village, no one dared refuse Grandpa Jack's request. Only Tang Hao was someone Grandpa Jack could do absolutely nothing about.
