Douluo: Neighbor Tang San Comes Over to Use My Wi-Fi

"Awakening a Martial Soul? It's finally starting. I wonder if my Martial Soul will be Mom's iron wire or Dad's iron box?"

Nan Xuan thought about it for a moment, then dismissed the idea. Whatever the Martial Soul was, it was; he wasn't worried about Innate Soul Power either. If his talent was good, he'd be a Soul Master and cultivate hard; if it was bad, he'd just find a way to get by.

Nighttime.

"Ugh, I can't sleep. I'm actually a little excited." Nan Xuan tossed and turned in bed, not feeling a hint of sleepiness.

"May my parents from my past life be watching over me, bless me with a good talent tomorrow. Even though I could accept being an ordinary person, since I've already transmigrated here, I want to go see the world." Nan Xuan knelt on his bed, looking at the moon, and prayed.

Early the next morning, the village chief came to call everyone.

There were about ten children in Iron Box Village the same age as Nan Xuan. They were all brought by the village chief to the entrance of the village's Martial Soul Hall, waiting for the arrival of the Lord Soul Master who would conduct their awakening.

Not long after, a middle-aged man wearing a white robe arrived.

The white-robed man produced a streak of purple energy in his hand and placed it against the door of the village Martial Soul Hall. As the dust shook off, the door opened.

"Everyone, come in," the middle-aged man said to the children.

The village chief bowed to the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man waved his hand, walked inside, and then the door closed.

"Hello everyone, my name is Su Haisheng. I am a white-robed deacon of the Martial Soul Hall branch, and also a 35-year-old Level 27 Soul Grand Master. My Martial Soul is a Lone Wolf. Alright, let me begin awakening your Martial Souls now." Su Haisheng introduced himself briefly and then began to awaken the Martial Souls for everyone.

Wait, he isn't the father of the blind Douluo Su Yuntao, is he? After all, he's famous for being blind. Could this blindness be hereditary? Given the Lone Wolf Martial Soul, what if he really only has one eye? Nan Xuan thought to himself, watching Su Haisheng awaken the others.

"Iron box, no soul power, next."

"Sickle, no soul power, next."

"Iron box..."

"Iron box... none, wait?" Su Haisheng widened his eyes. This iron box was a bit different.

Nan Xuan looked at the Martial Soul in his right hand, also stunned.

A black box with three iron wires sticking out the back—isn't this just a wireless router?

Oh, so an iron box plus iron wire really can form this thing. I guess this counts as a mutated Martial Soul. Nan Xuan silently pondered the origin of his Martial Soul.

"Little one, tell me the name of your Martial Soul. This shouldn't just be an iron box, right?" Su Haisheng asked, looking at the object in Nan Xuan's hand.

"Respected Lord Soul Master, my Martial Soul is called a wireless router," Nan Xuan said, looking at Su Haisheng without rushing.

Su Haisheng searched his memory and realized the Martial Soul Hall had never recorded a similar Martial Soul before, so he said, "Hmm, let's check your Innate Soul Power first."

Nan Xuan followed Su Haisheng's instructions to retract his Martial Soul and placed his hand on a crystal ball. Suddenly, it radiated brilliant light.

"Innate Full Soul Power! My god!" Su Haisheng was shocked by the sight; this was the first time in his career he had ever seen someone awaken with Innate Full Soul Power.

"Innate Full Soul Power?" Nan Xuan muttered.

"Oh, it seems you don't know what that is. Innate Full Soul Power means that the soul power you have at the moment of awakening is already at Level 10. It's the result others spend years cultivating, but you are born with it. Once you obtain a soul ring, you will be a Soul Master," Su Haisheng explained patiently, observing Nan Xuan's expression.

"So that's how it is. Am I really that amazing?" Nan Xuan's acting was quite good; at least he hadn't wasted his time watching dramas in his past life.

This is a genius seed. Even if I don't know what the Martial Soul is, the talent is undeniable. If I can arrange for him to join the Martial Soul Hall, this will be a huge merit. Looking at Nan Xuan, Su Haisheng was already calculating his own gains.

Innate Full Soul Power. It seems I have the talent, now I just need the effort. In that case, let me make a name for myself in this Douluo world, hahaha. Nan Xuan looked at his own stats, feeling quite excited.

"Child, child, wake up." Su Haisheng looked at the grinning Nan Xuan, feeling a bit nervous. It was rare to find such a "merit," he hoped the kid wasn't a fool.

Nan Xuan saw Su Haisheng calling him and snapped back to reality. "Is there a problem, Lord Soul Master?"

Seeing Nan Xuan act this way, Su Haisheng felt relieved.

"Child, I wanted to ask, would you like to join our Martial Soul Hall?" Su Haisheng asked directly.

Hmm? This isn't the usual script, Nan Xuan thought to himself.

"What are the benefits of joining the Martial Soul Hall?" Nan Xuan asked, trying to look at it from his own perspective.

"Based on your talent, after I report it to headquarters, if they approve, you can go to the Martial Soul Hall Academy to study. Tuition is free, room and board are covered, teachers will help you hunt for soul rings, and you'll receive a stipend. Plus, our Nuoding City will also give you a reward," Su Haisheng listed the basic advantages of the Martial Soul Hall, waiting to see if Nan Xuan agreed.

"But what if the Martial Soul Hall headquarters doesn't approve? Then wouldn't I have waited for nothing and lost my chance to go to school?" Nan Xuan asked, scratching the back of his head.

"Don't worry about that. Even if they don't approve, our Martial Soul Hall will arrange everything for you. After all, losing any genius is a huge loss for us," Su Haisheng said with a smile, trying to reassure him.

Nan Xuan pretended to think for a while, then agreed. "Alright, I agree."

Su Haisheng was quite pleased to hear this answer.

But he didn't forget the business at hand. "Very well. There are three months until school starts. If it's approved, I will come to tell you during this time, and then we will send someone to take you to Martial Soul City to report."

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Lord Soul Master." Nan Xuan put on a very happy expression, making it look like he had just struck gold.

Nan Xuan looked at Su Haisheng, silently noting that he didn't seem blind at all. Why did Su Yuntao turn out that way later?

As for his feigned hesitation about joining the Martial Soul Hall, it was just a matter of mutual benefit between him and Su Haisheng.

He just wanted to squeeze out as many benefits as possible; after all, he was poor right now.

"Congratulations, Village Chief Nan Lu. Your village has produced a genius with Innate Full Soul Power. We should keep in touch," Su Haisheng said, hoping to use the village chief to solidify his relationship with Nan Xuan.

"Lord Soul Master, you aren't pulling my leg, are you?" Iron Box Village Chief Nan Lu asked with a fawning smile.

"Heh, it's nothing like that. I won't say more; you can ask him yourself. I have things to do, so I'm leaving." Su Haisheng didn't linger; he was busy reporting the information.

The village chief happened to ask a child who had just come out, saying, "Er Gou, which one of you awakened with Innate Full Soul Power?"

The little boy was a bit nervous at the village chief's sudden question, stammering, "It's... Nan Xuan. He awakened a strange martial soul, but the Lord Soul Master said he has Innate Full Soul Power."

With a look of envy in his eyes, the little boy glanced back once before leaving.

Seeing Nan Xuan walk out, the village chief hurried over and asked, "Xiao Xuan, did you really awaken with Innate Full Soul Power?"

Nan Xuan looked at the village chief's expectant gaze and smiled as he told him, "Yes, Grandpa Village Chief. My martial soul is called a Wireless Router, and I have Innate Full Soul Power."

As he spoke, he summoned his martial soul once again.

"Good, good! Although your martial soul is a bit strange, it should be related to the inherited martial soul of our Iron Box Village. Wait until we get back; I'll show you the records kept by our past village chiefs. I hope it will be of some help to you." The village chief looked at the black iron box and wires in Nan Xuan's hands. Although he didn't know what a wireless router was, the Innate Full Soul Power made him extremely happy.

"Mm, thank you, Grandpa Village Chief." Nan Xuan looked at the village chief, knowing what he was thinking. As the head of the village, he naturally hoped that more soul masters would emerge from the village.

"Oh, right, Grandpa Village Chief, I just accepted the invitation from Lord Soul Master Su Haisheng and joined the Martial Soul Hall. If my talent earns the appreciation of the lords in Martial Soul City, I can go directly to Martial Soul City to study." Nan Xuan did not hide this matter; after all, it would be known sooner or later.

"Joining the Martial Soul Hall? That's not bad. The Martial Soul Hall treats us commoners quite well—free martial soul awakening and even subsidies. I'm a bit more at ease with you going there, it's just a bit too far from home." The village chief spoke slowly, but his expressions were vivid.

The village chief's expression shifted between contemplation, joy, and worry, which made Nan Xuan feel a sense of warmth. This was something only family would feel—hoping for your bright future while worrying that you are too far away to take care of yourself.

Nan Xuan rubbed the corner of his eye with his right hand, then looked up and smiled at the village chief, saying, "Don't worry, Grandpa. I will definitely take good care of myself. Can't you trust me?"

"Hahaha, that's true. You brat are the bravest and most sensible child in our village." The village chief was amused by Nan Xuan's tone. After saying a few more things, he went home and brought him the Chronicles of Past Village Chiefs (Soul Master Edition) for him to read.

Nan Xuan took the book and thanked him, and the village chief left.

Nan Xuan sat cross-legged on his bed, spread the book out on his lap, and began to read it carefully.

"15th Village Chief of Iron Box Village, Nan Men, Level 12 Soul Master, martial soul Iron Box, 10-year soul ring skill is to expand the space of the iron box."

"18th Village Chief of Iron Box Village, Nan Chuang, Level 14 Soul Master, martial soul Iron Box, 10-year soul ring skill is to expand the space of the iron box."

"19th Village Chief of Iron Box Village, Nan Lu, did not awaken soul power."

"20th Village Chief-in-waiting of Iron Box Village, Nan Tian, Level 22 Soul Grand Master, martial soul Iron Box, 10-year soul skill is to expand the space of the iron box, 100-year soul skill is Materialization of the iron box (Note: deceased)."

Nan Xuan flipped to the last page, looked at the summary of the past village chiefs and his father's position as the village chief-in-waiting, and felt a stir of emotion in his heart.

Nan Xuan didn't calm down immediately; he set aside his previous thoughts and summoned his own martial soul, the Wireless Router.

"My martial soul has quite a few traits. Although it has no elemental attributes, this trait should be unique in the entire Douluo Continent." Nan Xuan felt the information transmitted by his martial soul and grinned.

Martial soul: Wireless Router. Traits: Detection and Concealment, Spirit Amplification, Spatial Storage, Digitization, Materialization.

"Materialization and Spatial Storage are the same as the Iron Box martial soul. The others should be the result of a mutation caused by the combination of my mom and dad's martial souls. It looks like my martial soul won't follow the Power Attack path. The specific category will depend on my soul skills. It would be best to make use of the martial soul's traits, otherwise, it would be a waste."

"However, this Spatial Storage of mine doesn't seem to be able to hold physical objects; it can only store spiritual bodies. That's a bit of a pity."

Nan Xuan put away his martial soul and began to combine his knowledge of electromechanical technology to start designing ideas for his martial soul.

This design process lasted for more than two months. Coincidentally, on this day, Su Haisheng hurriedly delivered a letter: a Martial Soul Primary Academy Invitation.

Under Su Haisheng's urging, Nan Xuan packed his things, said goodbye to the village chief, left Iron Box Village, and headed toward Martial Soul City.

At the gates of Martial Soul City, a simple carriage stopped on the side of the road, but no one was seen getting off.

"Nan Xuan, this is the reward subsidy from our Nuoding City Martial Soul Branch for you: 300 Gold Soul Coins. As long as you take that Martial Soul Primary Soul Master Academy invitation to the corresponding academy to register, your tuition, food, and accommodation will be free. However, this only covers you until you reach Level 30 Soul Elder. If you want to attend an intermediate academy or even an advanced academy later, that will depend on your own efforts. I also hope our province can produce an advanced soul master." Su Haisheng, sitting in the carriage, took a bag of Gold Soul Coins from his pocket, handed it to Nan Xuan, and gave him a reminder.

"Lord Soul Master Su Haisheng, thank you for bringing me to Martial Soul City, and thank you for your expectations. I will definitely walk the path of the strong." Nan Xuan looked at Su Haisheng's serious expression, jumped off the carriage, and said firmly.

"Haha, is that so? Then I'll wait for the day you become famous." Su Haisheng laughed, then drove the carriage away.

"Ahem." Watching Su Haisheng leave, Nan Xuan coughed lightly, thinking that although he sounded a bit cringey just now, what he said was the truth.

Following the address on the invitation, Nan Xuan found the Martial Soul Primary Soul Master Academy, walked to the registration desk, and submitted the academy invitation.

The teacher at the registration desk looked at the introduction on the invitation and saw the Innate Full Soul Power. As for the martial soul, he indicated he had never seen it before. However, according to academy regulations, anyone with Innate Soul Power above Level 6 must be assigned to the same class; after all, these were the future geniuses of the Martial Soul Hall.

"Mm, take this to the logistics department to collect your school uniform. Your class and dormitory number are written on it; see for yourself. Also, remember to follow the academy rules." After looking at it for a while, the teacher at the registration desk took out a piece of paper, filled in the data, stamped it, reminded Nan Xuan, and waved his hand to indicate he could leave.
