Grasping

It seemed Tang San's reaction had once again exceeded Su Yuntao's expectations. He stopped again, this time to explain the knowledge of Soul Masters to the children.

Most of them listened attentively, including Tang San. Only Su Yun quietly slipped to the window and began to bask in the sun.

The moment his skin touched the sunlight, Su Yun's body cells began to absorb radiant energy. His whole body felt warm, and he could clearly feel his Soul Power growing, though not as fast as he'd hoped. As for improvements to his physique, it was hard to tell.

Still, Su Yun was quite satisfied. Compared to others who had to cultivate arduously, he only needed to bask in the sun daily to get stronger. What more could he ask for?

Soon, after Su Yuntao finished his lecture on Soul Masters, he resumed the Martial Soul awakening for the remaining children.

When a third girl's palm revealed another Blue Silver Grass, Su Yuntao's heart suddenly trembled. A terrifying thought crossed his mind.

Could there be another Innate Full Soul Power?

He swallowed, trying to steady his nerves as he handed over the crystal ball.

As the girl placed her hand on it, the crystal ball remained unresponsive. Su Yuntao let out a long sigh of relief. If there had been another Innate Full Soul Power Blue Silver Grass, he might have gone mad!

"No Soul Power, cannot become a Soul Master."

After decreeing the little girl's future, Su Yuntao called for the next child.

The next six children, though their Martial Souls were strange and varied, all lacked Soul Power and could not become Soul Masters.

Su Yuntao was disappointed but knew this was normal. Generally, only the inheritors of major sects easily became Soul Masters; it was far too difficult for ordinary people.

He had awakened hundreds, if not thousands, of people over the years, yet very few became Soul Masters.

So far this year, across six villages, only Su Yun and Tang San could become Soul Masters, possessing Innate Full Soul Power.

But the problem was, one refused to join the Martial Soul Hall, and the other had a "waste Martial Soul." What was the difference from not awakening one at all?

In a bad mood, Su Yuntao packed his belongings and walked out. He planned to speak with the village chief, hoping he could persuade Su Yun.

As soon as he stepped outside, Old Jack, who had been pacing back and forth at the entrance, hurried over and asked expectantly.

"Sir, how did it go? Are there any children from our village who can become Soul Masters this year?"

"Yes! It's the two children you personally brought."

Su Yuntao gave a definitive answer.

"Hmm?"

Old Jack was stunned for a moment, then burst into joy.

"There are two? You mean Xiao San and Xiao Yun?"

"That's right."

Su Yuntao nodded again.

"And they both have Innate Full Soul Power."

"Hiss! Innate Full Soul Power! Two of them?"

Old Jack gasped, contributing his part to global warming, then erupted in further joy.

Old Jack's reaction was within Su Yuntao's expectations. After all, he, a Soul Master, was this shocked; how much more so a mere village chief?

"Indeed! But they both have some issues."

Seeing Su Yuntao's serious expression, Old Jack's heart, which had been soaring, sank again. He asked cautiously.

"What issues?"

"The boy named Xiao San awakened the Blue Silver Grass as his Martial Soul."

"Blue Silver Grass with Innate Full Soul Power? Oh dear."

Jack's face fell with disappointment, then he anxiously continued.

"What about Xiao Yun? Is her Martial Soul also Blue Silver Grass?"

"No, it's not."

Su Yuntao shook his head.

"Her Martial Soul is a scythe that looks incredibly powerful!"

Hearing this, Su Yun behind him felt a bit strange. After all, those senior transmigration predecessors, no matter how powerful their awakened Martial Souls, were always evaluated as "waste Martial Souls" by Brother Tao.

I'm a bit of an outlier!

But there was nothing he could do. The main reason was that the Shadow Scythe's appearance was too awesome. If it had been Superman Physique, maybe Brother Tao would have truly called it a "waste Martial Soul."

Five minutes later, Su Yuntao, having concluded his negotiations, left for the next village.

Old Jack, however, pulled Su Yun and Tang San before him, crouched down, and asked kindly.

"Xiao Yun, why don't you want to join the Martial Soul Hall? Is there a reason?"

"There's no reason."

Su Yun shook his head and said very seriously.

"I just don't want to join."

Upon hearing this, Old Jack frowned first, then seemed to think of something. He didn't press further, gently patted Su Yun's head, and said affectionately.

"If you don't want to join, then don't. Would you be willing to go to the Soul Master Academy?"

This time, Su Yun did not refuse.

"I am willing."

"Good, good, good!"

Old Jack nodded repeatedly, appearing very pleased, and then turned his gaze to Tang San.

"What about you, Little San?

Although your spirit power is poor, your talent is excellent, and you can also study at the Soul Master Academy. Are you willing?"

"I am willing!"

Seeing Tang San agree directly, Su Yun on the side was stunned and looked at Tang San in surprise.

Did this mama's boy agree so readily?

Shouldn't he have asked for his scumbag father Tang Hao's opinion first?

While Su Yun was confused, Tang San, who had agreed subconsciously, also thought of this question and said somewhat awkwardly.

"But my father..."

Old Jack naturally understood Tang San's concerns and waved his hand grandly.

"It's fine, as long as you agree, I'll help you talk to him about the rest!"

After speaking, Old Jack first sent the other children back to their parents, and then took Su Yun and Tang San towards the blacksmith shop. They soon arrived at Tang San's home.

As soon as they entered, Old Jack began to call out for Tang Hao.

Su Yun frowned upon smelling a strong scent of alcohol and lightly pressed his nose with his index finger.

Tang San, seeing this, blushed slightly and quickly opened the window to let the smell of alcohol dissipate.

[Friendship Points from Tang San +7.]

Looking at the prompt on the system panel, Su Yun couldn't help but smile.

Little Tang San, got him.

Under Old Jack's calls, a slightly angry voice sounded.

"Who's shouting so loudly?"

Tang Hao, with messy hair and a scruffy beard, lifted the curtain of the inner door and walked out slowly. His gaze subconsciously fell on Su Yun, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

Tang Hao's gaze was fully captured by Su Yun, who couldn't help but feel a little smug.

The Cross-dressing Buff was truly powerful, not only in appearance but also in the mysterious aura of charm, which received a double boost.

However, Tang Hao was only surprised for a moment, as no matter how beautiful Su Yun was, in his eyes, she was just a child.

After shifting his gaze away from Su Yun, he glanced at Tang San, and finally focused his attention on Old Jack, saying impatiently.

"Old Jack, what do you want with me?"

Tang Hao's attitude immediately angered Old Jack, who couldn't help but say in a sarcastic tone.

"What do I want?

Do you know that your son awakened his martial soul today?"
