Ye Ying sat by the window, sipping milk tea as he quietly studied the system panel.
Although the system said Points could be exchanged for things, he had not examined it carefully yet.
[Points: Six] [One ordinary modification: Ten Points] [One minor restriction-reducing modification: One hundred Points] [Soul Mantra to double one's strength: Ten thousand Points] [Unknown: Unknown Points] ... [Free modification: Nine billion nine hundred million...]
Ye Ying stared blankly at the final entry.
"System, isn't the price for this free modification a little too high?"
[Not high. Without a goal, there is no motivation.]
"What about the unknown one? Why is it still unknown?"
[The content has not been decided yet. We'll talk once it has been. Besides, you do not have enough Points anyway.]
"Six!"
Three months passed in the blink of an eye.
Before long, it was time for Tang Hao and Tang San to leave the pigsty.
It was also nearly time to head to Notting Academy for school.
During that time, Old Jack went to the pigsty and asked Tang San whether she was willing to attend Notting Academy.
Tang Hao ultimately agreed.
He let Tang San go.
Only by becoming a Soul Master could Tang San avenge their grievances in the future.
Old Jack had secured a Work-Study Student position for Tang San.
He had practically begged several neighboring villages for it.
After all, none of them had anyone capable of becoming a Soul Master.
Over those three months, Tang San also reflected on why she had wanted to burn down the village. Had she lost her mind?
Still, being able to become a Soul Master now, and having a chance to obtain Soul Rings and perhaps break through the Mysterious Heaven Skill in the future, was quite good.
Old Jack put on his finest clothes in advance, since they were going into the city.
He then called Ye Ying and Tang San over to head to Notting Academy together.
As they walked along the road out of Holy Soul Village,
Ye Ying glanced at his Points.
He now had two hundred and seventy-nine.
That was enough to exchange for two minor restriction-reducing modifications.
In addition, he still had the four chances rewarded by the system.
Over the past three months, aside from meditating and cultivating every day, he used his three chances to occasionally mess with Tang San.
It added a little fun to his dull life.
For example, when the father and daughter were lying on the ground resting,
[Tang San happened to need to urinate. She squatted beside Tang Hao and began relieving herself.]
"Change 'beside' to 'on his face.'"
[Tang San happened to need to urinate. She squatted on Tang Hao's face and began relieving herself.]
Tang Hao had been sleeping soundly when he felt a stream of warm liquid pour directly over him.
Then, he suddenly realized what was happening.
Tang San had peed all over his face!
"Tang San!"
Tang Hao opened his mouth!
Or he would occasionally mess with Blue Silver Fox Liu Ruyan.
Although she was a martial soul, she differed from ordinary martial souls.
She could leave Tang San's body on her own.
Unless Tang San knocked her unconscious with a brick, she could only be temporarily shut away that way.
When Blue Silver Fox learned that the father and daughter had been locked in a pigsty, she immediately felt as though the sky had collapsed.
When had she, the great Liu Ruyan, ever come to a place like this?
And why was this different from the original plot?
Wasn't Tang San supposed to spend these three months learning the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer?
Instead, she had been locked in a pigsty for three months?
She had to find a way to change it back.
[Blue Silver Fox suddenly leaped and jumped out of the filthy pigsty...]
"Change 'out' to 'into.'"
[Blue Silver Fox suddenly leaped and jumped into the filthy pigsty...]
Blue Silver Fox had already gotten out and crossed the fence.
Who would have thought that she would suddenly twitch in midair?
Her legs performed a Cloud Ladder in the air, and she turned around and jumped back into the pigsty.
And she landed in the filthiest spot, covered in watery shit.
"Ah!"
Blue Silver Fox screamed, splattering watery shit everywhere, including all over Tang San and Tang Hao.
"Tang San, control your lousy fox!"
Tang Hao could not help but curse angrily.
Every day had already been miserable enough, yet it somehow got even worse.
Tang San stepped forward, intending to knock her unconscious.
Immediately afterward, Blue Silver Fox began violently shaking her head.
Like a dog shaking water from its fur,
the watery shit stuck to her body was continuously flung onto Tang San.
Tang San was covered from head to toe.
"Ah!"
The three humans and one fox walked along the road toward Notting City.
A faint stench continuously wafted from Tang San and Blue Silver Fox.
After soaking in that place for three months, they could not possibly get clean in a single day.
The smell had seeped into their bones.
Ye Ying could not help moving a little farther away from Tang San.
Suddenly, he heard the system's voice ring in his mind.
[Plot Modification successful. Tang San did not learn the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer. Reward: Disorder Splitting Wind Technique.]
"Disorder Splitting Wind Technique?"
Ye Ying instantly felt special memories appear in his mind.
They even came with physical sensations.
The Disorder Splitting Wind Technique allowed him, no matter what he was doing,
to continuously stack momentum like the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer.
For a moment, Ye Ying could not help letting his thoughts drift in a lewd direction.
He had received a Plot Modification reward without doing anything.
It seemed that receiving rewards from Plot Modification was not limited to modifications he personally made through the system.
The Butterfly Effect could accomplish it too.
They set off in the morning, and by afternoon, the three of them finally entered Notting City.
Noting Junior Soul Master Academy was located in the western part of Notting City.
They set off in the morning, and by afternoon, the three of them finally entered Notting City.
Noting Junior Soul Master Academy was located in the western part of Notting City.
After asking passersby for directions several times, Old Jack finally led Ye Ying and Tang San here.
From a distance, they could already see a tall arched gate.
Below it stood two black iron-bar gates.
Through the iron bars, they could see winding paths leading into the distance.
Tall trees lined both sides.
A broad road led straight inward.
At the center of the arch were four large characters: "Notting Academy."
Blue Silver Fox muttered, "Notting Academy really is quite impressive."
Old Jack had just led Ye Ying, Tang San, and the fox to the gate.
They were immediately stopped by a young gatekeeper.
"What are you here for? Is this a place country bumpkins like you can come to?"
"And you even brought a fox? This fox is rather pretty."
Old Jack's clothes were considered respectable in Holy Soul Village.
But in Notting City, he looked entirely like a countryman.
The gatekeeper's gaze carried more than a trace of disdain.
Ye Ying remembered very clearly that this was where Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang was supposed to make his appearance.
Old Jack hurriedly explained to the young gatekeeper that the two were Work-Study Students.
He also produced two Spirit Hall certificates.
A flicker of surprise immediately appeared on the young gatekeeper's face.
But his words were full of mockery.
"Two Work-Study Students? Both with Innate Full Soul Power?"
"This certificate is fake, right?"
"One Blue Silver Fox, one Snowman? Martial souls like those even exist?"
"And they are from some Holy Soul Village? More like Beggar Village."
"And they stink too. The smell is unbearable."
"What did you say?!"
Old Jack immediately flew into a rage.
He roared at the young gatekeeper. Holy Soul Village was his pride.
