"Tang San is about the same age as me, and six years ago was exactly when the former Pope of Spirit Hall, Qian Xunji, led a team to hunt down the hundred-thousand-year-old Blue Silver Emperor, A Yin."

"The final result was that A Yin sacrificed herself, Tang Hao repelled the Spirit Hall members and severely wounded Qian Xunji, and Spirit Hall suppressed the news."

"The person who holds a grudge against Spirit Hall and dares to strike against them is, in all likelihood, Tang Hao."

"With Tang Hao's strength, destroying a Spirit Hall branch is indeed an effortless task."

Could it really be him?

Duan Fan felt that it was nine times out of ten Tang Hao.

If he wanted to be certain, it was simple: improve his own strength, and a little investigation would yield the results.

When all was said and done, he still needed to possess sufficiently powerful strength.

Whether it was for investigation or revenge, both required powerful strength as a foundation.

Duan Fan put away his thoughts and, facing Fang Qingshan's instructions, nodded earnestly: "I will work hard on my cultivation, Uncle!"

Fang Qingshan nodded with satisfaction: "Good child!"

"Eat something. We should arrive at the Soul Hunting Forest in about two hours."

As he spoke, Fang Qingshan handed some beef jerky and a pile of food to Duan Fan.

We're arriving at the Soul Hunting Forest soon, and I'm getting closer and closer to obtaining my First Soul Ring. I should quickly check on Tang San's current situation.

Duan Fan tore off a small piece of beef jerky, put it in his mouth, and chewed slowly. With a thought, lines of text immediately appeared before his eyes.

What was written there was exactly what was happening to Tang San.

With Su Yuntao's help, Tang San had already completed his spirit awakening, and Su Yuntao had just delivered that classic line.

"Another trash spirit."

Subsequently, at Tang San's request, Su Yuntao conducted the Innate Soul Power test for him.

The result was no surprise; Tang San had Full Innate Soul Power, leaving Su Yuntao completely shocked.

"The timing is just right."

Duan Fan had been waiting for this very moment when Tang San completed his spirit awakening ceremony.

He began to modify Tang San's fate, still choosing not to target Tang San himself.

Last time he had modified Tang Hao; this time, his target was Su Yuntao.

[Su Yuntao packs up his things, preparing to head to the next village. He picks up the spirit awakening list for Sacred Soul Village and writes down Tang San's spirit awakening information. Spirit: Blue Silver Grass. Innate Soul Power: Full. He suddenly recalls the scene from yesterday in the Notting City branch Spirit Awakening Room, where he helped a child awaken their spirit. That child also had Full Innate Soul Power. The spirit was a Writing Brush, which seemed to be slightly better than Blue Silver Grass. Two children with Full Innate Soul Power appearing in two days—this matter must be reported. Even if it is a trash spirit, it still must be reported. Otherwise, he would surely be held accountable in the future. Thinking of this, Su Yuntao circles Tang San's information.]

"Done!"

"The system didn't give a notification of a failed modification, so it looks like it most likely succeeded!"

"Next, I just need to wait quietly for the subsequent developments."

"I just don't know when I'll receive the system reward."

Duan Fan ate some beef jerky and finished off two thin pancakes, quickly filling his stomach.

Fang Qingshan was currently flipping through a notebook and spoke up: "I looked up some information last night and referenced your mother's soul ring configuration. I've finally determined a few Soul Beasts suitable for your First Soul Ring, and now I'll tell them to you."

Hearing this, Duan Fan immediately perked up: "Alright!"

Duan Fan highly valued Fang Qingshan's professional capabilities.

Over the years, Duan Fan had often seen Fang Qingshan researching information on spirit masters and Soul Beasts late into the night.

He had written no fewer than a hundred notebooks, filling two large wooden chests.

Fang Qingshan would occasionally tell Duan Fan and Fang Qian stories based on his knowledge of spirit masters and Soul Beasts. Although Fang Qian didn't understand them, she listened with great interest.

Duan Fan listened very carefully, feeling that some of the theoretical knowledge Fang Qingshan mentioned made a lot of sense.

Speaking of theoretical knowledge, one had to mention a certain Grandmaster.

Duan Fan had been to the Notting Junior Spirit Master Academy and had met this so-called Grandmaster there.

The impression the man gave Duan Fan was not at all like a scholar dedicated to theoretical research, but rather like a good-for-nothing waiting to die.

He even had to ask for Fang Qingshan's opinion on some of his own theoretical research.

In Duan Fan's opinion, his Uncle Fang was the one who truly deserved to be called a Grandmaster.

Fang Qingshan turned another page of his notebook, stopping his movement. The handwriting on it was neat and dense, clearly indicating he had done considerable research.

"The first target Soul Beast is called Snow Deer. It lives in the northern part of the Soul Hunting Forest, and its ability is to release ice mist to slow down targets.

Your mother chose it for her First Soul Ring back then, and the Soul Skill she obtained was named [Frost Brush Point]. Its effect is to paint a patch of ice mist, causing targets to slow down.

She followed the control-assist path. All her Soul Skills were primarily for control. Her advantage was decent control effects, making her a rather special existence among control-type Soul Masters. Her disadvantage was a lack of damage output."

"The second target Soul Beast is called Dream-Weaving Spider. It lives in the Withered Wood Forest in the southeast direction of the Soul Hunting Forest. Its ability is to weave spider silk into large spiders for combat control.

According to the information I've found, the Soul Skill provided by this Soul Beast is creative.

For example, a Soul Master whose Martial Soul is Sand and Gravel obtained the Soul Skill of condensing sand spiders after absorbing the Soul Ring of this Soul Beast.

If you absorb the Dream-Weaving Spider's Martial Soul, you'll likely gain a creative-type Soul Skill as well, such as being able to paint a giant spider to fight for you.

I call this type of choice the summon-creation path."

"The third target Soul Beast is called Wind Sound Sparrow. It lives in the valley area of the Soul Hunting Forest. Its ability is to emit a screech, attacking targets with sound waves.

It was your mother's Fifth Soul Ring, and the Soul Skill she obtained was named Brush Howl. By wielding her paintbrush, she could release sound wave attacks that would slow down targets and inflict mental damage.

This was her only Soul Skill with an attack effect.

She valued the control effect of the sound waves, while I value the mental attack of the sound waves.

It's not impossible for the Paintbrush to follow a mental attack route."

After introducing all the Soul Beasts, Fang Qingshan gave a brief summary: "These three Soul Beast choices represent three different development paths: control-assist, summon-creation, and mental attack. These are the three choices I believe are most suitable for your Martial Soul."

"The most stable among them is the control-assist path. After all, your mother followed that route and achieved quite good results."

"Although you are still young and may not be able to make the most accurate judgment, I still choose to respect your thoughts."

"Little Fan, which path do you intend to take? Or, besides these recommendations, do you have your own ideas?"

Duan Fan listened carefully and, without much hesitation, gave his answer: "I choose the summon-creation path."

It had to be the summon-creation path. Wasn't the characteristic of the Fantasy Pen precisely summoning and creation?
