Level 30 Soul Power

Among the Martial Soul Department students interested in Soul Tools was Jiang Nannan.

Jiang Nannan's Martial Soul was the Soft Bone Rabbit, just like Xiao Wu's ten thousand years ago. The Soft Bone Rabbit was an unremarkable Martial Soul in terms of strength, but its abilities were downright outrageous.

Jiang Nannan was currently a Soul Grandmaster, with only two skills: Waist Bow and Gravity Control. Gravity Control was an extremely practical skill.

And in the story, her third and fourth Soul Skills would be Teleportation and Invincible Golden Body. Each skill was more exaggerated than the last.

Her ability to protect herself was practically invincible!

But as an offensive-type Soul Master, she had no powerful attack skills to show for it.

So Jiang Nannan wanted to start with Soul Tools and improve her offensive power.

But she had only average talent for Soul Tools, and studying Soul Tool Technology was a real struggle. It would probably take four or five years of hard work before she could achieve anything in that field.

Unable to make her own Soul Tools, Jiang Nannan could only consider buying one. But as a poor student, she could only gaze helplessly at their exorbitant prices.

That was when Xu Sanshi approached Feng Tianyu.

Even without deliberately paying attention, Feng Tianyu had heard that Xu Sanshi fussed over Jiang Nannan every day and shamelessly stuck by her side.

Even a fool could see what he was after.

But Jiang Nannan, who was kind and friendly to everyone else, turned icy the moment she saw Xu Sanshi. The word "disgust" might as well have been written all over her face.

Feng Tianyu was certain Xu Sanshi had already gone to Jiang Nannan to awaken their Martial Souls. Because he'd taken the wrong route and been left with a psychological shadow, Jiang Nannan was now so repulsed by Xu Sanshi.

Feng Tianyu grumbled inwardly. For the sake of a gag, they'd thrown logic right out the window. A sect that awakened Martial Souls further through sex somehow didn't teach its young master which route to take.

Or maybe Xu Sanshi was into both men and women. Perhaps he'd tried things with a man first, then finally gone to Jiang Nannan.

No matter how much Feng Tianyu grumbled to himself, Xu Sanshi was a rich fool who'd come to him to do business. There was no reason to turn him away.

Xu Sanshi was four years older than Feng Tianyu, but he called him "senior" every other word. His overly familiar manner made him seem shameless.

Actually, it made sense. Xu Sanshi really did have a shameless, obnoxious streak.

Xu Sanshi wanted to buy a Soul Tool as a surprise for Jiang Nannan. He'd taken a liking to Feng Tianyu's Power Amplification Gauntlets, which were suited to close-combat offensive Soul Masters, and told Feng Tianyu to name his price.

Feng Tianyu wasn't short on pocket money. He didn't spend much on food, clothes, and other daily necessities.

As for the expensive stuff, the rare metal ores he used were supplied by the Soul Guidance Department. He didn't need to pay for them himself.

So Feng Tianyu asked for ten Mystic Water Pills and another 200,000 Gold Soul Coins. In exchange, he'd sell Xu Sanshi the Level Six Soul Tool, the Power Amplification Gauntlets.

The Mystic Water Pill was a specialty of the Mystic Underworld Sect, the sect behind Xu Sanshi.

It could effectively purge impurities from the body and improve a Soul Master's talent and aptitude.

For those with Soul Power below level 20, its effects were especially pronounced. The first pill could raise their Soul Power by at least one level.

Although Feng Tianyu already had level 23 Soul Power, he should still be able to raise it by one level if he took several Mystic Water Pills.

The Mystic Water Pill could also increase his cultivation speed.

Feng Tianyu wanted to become a Soul King before he turned twelve, so naturally he had to find every way he could to speed up his cultivation.

Xu Sanshi certainly had money to burn. He agreed at once, handed over ten Mystic Water Pills and 200,000 Gold Soul Coins, then left in high spirits with the Power Amplification Gauntlets.

Both sides felt they'd gotten a good deal!

Feng Tianyu took the first Mystic Water Pill that very day. It was as if clear streams of water coursed through his body, washing him again and again and forcing out the few impurities within.

Feng Tianyu wasn't Huo Yuhao. He had excellent talent and Innate Full Soul Power, so there were very few impurities in his body to begin with.

Even after taking the Mystic Water Pill, all it did was leave a thin layer of grime on the surface of his skin.

As for his Soul Power, it didn't rise by a full level; it only increased by about a third.

Some of the pill's power remained stored in his flesh and blood, allowing him to maintain triple cultivation speed for a while.

Feng Tianyu was very satisfied. Mystic Water Pills weren't particularly precious, but the cultivation time they saved him was what mattered most.

Over the next seven days, Feng Tianyu and Grey Wolf cultivated like mad. Their doubled cultivation speed, combined with the Mystic Water Pill's threefold boost, sent their Soul Power soaring.

Seven days later, when Feng Tianyu felt his cultivation speed begin to drop, he took a second Mystic Water Pill. It purged even fewer impurities this time, and his Soul Power increased by only a quarter.

At least his triple cultivation speed had returned.

Feng Tianyu dragged Grey Wolf along and kept cultivating like mad.

While they were cultivating, the Shrek Team's starting members from the Inner Court and reserve members from the Outer Court headed off to compete in this year's Continental Advanced Soul Master Elite Tournament, led by Elder Song, one of the Sea God Pavilion Elders.

Feng Tianyu had heard about it. In fact, if he'd been willing to say yes, Mu En would certainly have put him on the Shrek Team's reserve squad, so he could share in the glory of their victory.

But he didn't care about empty fame. What was that compared to raising his Soul Power?

With one Mystic Water Pill every seven days, Feng Tianyu raised his Soul Power by four levels in just two months, breaking through from level 23 to level 27.

The Mystic Water Pill was great!

Unfortunately, he'd used up all ten pills, and his body had developed a resistance to them. Taking more wouldn't raise his Soul Power or cultivation speed. At best, they could help him recover his Soul Power faster when he was exhausted.

Without the Mystic Water Pill's boost, Feng Tianyu and Grey Wolf could only cultivate at twice the normal speed.

They trained diligently for four months, finally managing to raise their Soul Power by three levels.

From level 27, he broke through to level 30!

By then, Feng Tianyu had only just turned seven.

A seven-year-old quasi-Soul Elder with level 30 Soul Power!

If this had happened ten thousand years ago, it would have scared Tang San half to death!

Tang San hadn't broken through to level 30 Soul Power until he was nearly thirteen. Feng Tianyu had beaten him by a whole six years.

A great many lucky breaks had helped him get there: twice absorbing Soul Rings beyond his limits, the Academy's nutritious meals, Soul Raising Pills, Whale Rubber, Mystic Water Pills, and the double cultivation speed he gained from practicing alongside Grey Wolf.

Only with all those opportunities coming together had Feng Tianyu achieved this, becoming a seven-year-old quasi-Soul Elder with level 30 Soul Power.

When Feng Tianyu went to ask Qian Duoduo for leave and permission to go out and hunt a Soul Beast, Qian Duoduo was so shocked he couldn't speak.

During the first semester, Feng Tianyu had spent seven months reaching level 20 Soul Power. But in the second semester, he'd taken only six months to reach level 30.

The higher his Soul Power became, the faster he cultivated!

After recovering from the shock, Qian Duoduo did what he had the last time: he personally took Feng Tianyu to the Star Dou Forest to hunt a Soul Beast!
