After Tang Hao finished recalling the past, he saw that Tang San possessed Twin Martial Souls and immediately gave him an emotional hug.
He also instructed Tang San to use the hammer in his left hand to protect the grass in his right.
Tang San did not understand why Tang Hao was emphasizing this so solemnly, but he could only nod and promise.
After that, Tang Hao began teaching Tang San how to forge.
A month passed in the blink of an eye.
Tang Hao agreed to let Tang San attend Nuoding Academy.
Before leaving, Tang San cooked a pot of porridge for Tang Hao and left behind a note.
Old Jack took Tang San away from Holy Spirit Village and headed toward Nuoding City.
Nuoding City was not far from Holy Spirit Village, but Old Jack was advanced in years and walked too slowly. By the time they arrived in Nuoding City, the sun was already high overhead.
He brought Tang San to Nuoding Academy, but just as they were about to enter, they were stopped by the academy's gate guard.
The guard looked down on country folk. Seeing Tang San and Old Jack's clothes and realizing they were villagers, he prepared to make things difficult for them.
Old Jack stepped forward and said, "Sir, we're from Holy Spirit Village. We came today to send this child to study at Nuoding Academy as a work-study student. May I ask what procedures are required?"
"Hehe, can a golden phoenix really fly out of a grass nest?"
The guard sneered. "A child with Soul Power from some little village? You aren't trying to fool me, are you?"
"Sir, we have a certificate issued by Deacon Su Yuntao of Spirit Hall." Old Jack handed the certificate to the guard.
"Let me see. Martial Soul... Blue Silver Grass, and Innate Full Soul Power? Hahahaha... That's hilarious. Absolutely hilarious!"
The guard burst out laughing. "I've worked at this academy for four years, and I've never seen a student with Innate Full Soul Power. This certificate..."
He tossed the certificate onto the ground and eyed Old Jack suspiciously. "You didn't forge this, did you?"
"You..."
Old Jack glared at the gate guard furiously.
He had lived most of his life and had never once been accused of forgery.
Old Jack even had the urge to pick up his cane and give the gate guard a good whack.
But for Tang San's sake, he endured it.
Tang San could not stand by and watch any longer, especially when the gate guard insulted Holy Spirit Village and angered Old Jack until his face turned pale.
He made the first move and shoved the gate guard away.
The Tang Sect's Xuantian Bao Lu General Outline, Article Three: Once you have determined that your opponent is an enemy, if they have earned death, there is no need to show mercy. Otherwise, you will only bring trouble upon yourself.
The Tang Sect's teachings flashed through Tang San's mind. Then he revealed the Sleeve Arrow he had spent the past month crafting, ready to kill the gate guard.
The Sky Screen's image went black at that point.
Then, less than ten seconds later, words appeared upon the pitch-black Sky Screen once more.
This episode ends here. See you again in seven days for the next episode.
Preview Q&A for the Next Episode:
Will Tang San kill Nuoding Academy's gate guard?
1. He will.
2. He will not.
The words on the Sky Screen remained for over a minute before the screen went completely black.
Holy Spirit Village.
Villager A: "City people really are rude. Do they look down on us just because we're villagers?"
Villager B: "Old Jack has really had it hard."
Villager C: "What Old Jack? He isn't old yet. He's Little Jack."
The villagers talked among themselves, saying all sorts of things.
Some also discussed the preview Q&A.
Based on what they had seen of Tang San's actions before his transmigration, along with the thoughts shown at the end of the second episode,
most people chose option two, believing that Tang San would definitely kill Nuoding Academy's gate guard.
Lin Xianyu listened for the moment, then returned to her shabby little house.
Today, the Sky Screen had really gone all out on runtime. One episode had been longer than two.
Lin Xianyu did not even need to guess that this was some fan-made remix created by the Sky Screen.
"Woohoo, I'm finally a complete transmigrator!" Lin Xianyu received the cheat bestowed by the Sky Screen and began trying to cultivate with the Mysterious Heaven Skill.
When the Sky Screen gave her the cheat, it had also included all the cultivation precautions for the Mysterious Heaven Skill.
Lin Xianyu was now a master when it came to cultivating the Mysterious Heaven Skill, so she did not need to worry about failing to understand it and suffering a cultivation deviation.
She had merely tried cultivating the Mysterious Heaven Skill. She had not even properly completed a full circulation, yet her Soul Power level had already broken through.
Previously, whenever she watched the Douluo Continent animation played by the Sky Screen, she would receive one level of Soul Power after each broadcast.
Once seven days ago, and once again today.
Lin Xianyu had gained two levels of Soul Power.
After attempting to cultivate the Mysterious Heaven Skill, her Soul Power, which had originally been at level two, had now risen to level three.
"I haven't even decided whether I want to cultivate, and I gained a whole level the moment I started. Isn't that a little ridiculous?"
Lin Xianyu was utterly stunned.
She felt that cultivating the Mysterious Heaven Skill once a day would be enough.
Most importantly, she had the guaranteed rewards provided by the Sky Screen System.
With that safety net, Lin Xianyu did not want to work hard at cultivation. She only wanted to lie flat and wait until she reached level one hundred and became a god.
Each broadcast raised her Soul Power by one level.
Lin Xianyu was now level three, with ninety-seven levels remaining until level one hundred.
In other words, the Sky Screen System only needed to broadcast ninety-seven more times.
Once every seven days...
Well, that would take 686 days. Converted into years, it was less than two years.
She was six years old now. Two years later, she would become a god.
This cultivation speed was absolutely unprecedented and unsurpassable!
"Right, once I reach level ten, do I need to go to the Soul Hunting Forest and get a Soul Ring?" Lin Xianyu frowned.
She only wanted to lie flat in Holy Spirit Village until she became a level-one-hundred god. She had no intention of leaving Holy Spirit Village to wander around outside.
The outside world was far too dangerous. How could it possibly be safer than Holy Spirit Village?
"Maybe once I reach level ten, the Sky Screen System will give me another cheat, like a Soul Ring." Lin Xianyu thought that was a good idea.
Oh, Sky Screen System, if you still remember your host, be sure to give me a Soul Ring once I reach level ten!
Lin Xianyu gave up on continuing to cultivate the Mysterious Heaven Skill.
Mainly because it was mealtime, and it was time for her to randomly pick a fated household to eat with.
Today, she picked Old Jack's... no, Young Jack's home.
"Brother Jack, why are you so worried?" Lin Xianyu went to Young Jack's house and curiously asked when she saw his troubled expression.
"Xiaoyu, I'm worried about the future." Perhaps Young Jack regarded Lin Xianyu as someone he could confide in, because he began pouring out his feelings to her.
He was worried that the butterfly effect would prevent the village from producing Soul Masters in the future.
Seeing Young Jack so distressed, Lin Xianyu really wanted to tell him that his worries were unnecessary. A Soul Master was standing right in front of him.
However, Lin Xianyu had not lost her mind. She still knew where to draw the line.
If word got out that she, an orphan girl with innately zero Soul Power, could cultivate, nothing good would await her.
If someone imaginative linked her to the Sky Screen, then she would have no future at all.
Lin Xianyu could only offer a few kind words to comfort Young Jack.
Whether he could work through it depended on himself.
After eating at Young Jack's house, Lin Xianyu decisively slipped away. She did not want to look at Jack's worried face.
