What qualifications do they have to be struck by me?

Zhao Chuan was burning with anxiety, yet he persisted in finishing his work.

"Spirit: Sickle. Tool spirit. No spirit power; cannot become a Spirit Master."

"Spirit: Hoe. No spirit power."

"Spirit: Blue Silver Grass. No spirit power."

"Spirit..."

As expected, none of the remaining children possessed the talent to become a Spirit Master.

However, Zhao Chuan was not discouraged; he had already achieved his greatest gain of the trip!

"Child, what is your name?"

He needed to know the name of the youth before him to report it properly.

"Huo Yuhao."

Zhao Chuan nodded. "Very well, Yuhao. I will report your situation. Wait for my news."

The village chief had been waiting outside the Spirit Hall the entire time.

Earlier, when Huo Yuhao awakened his Ancestral Dragon Spirit, the heavy pressure had forced the ordinary village chief to his knees.

A long time had passed before he could shakily stand up.

He could not hide the joy on his face.

That commotion just now must have been caused by a child awakening their spirit!

Could it be that a genius Spirit Master had appeared in their village?

Spirit Hall had a rule: if a Spirit Master who left the village achieved significant success, not only could the village be renamed, but they would also be granted an exclusive quota for a work-study student!

This was the honor of the village!

The village chief's mind suddenly conjured the image of Huo Yuhao's young, handsome face.

It must be that child, Yuhao.

Regardless of whether Huo Yuhao and his mother were outsiders, the fact remained that when Yuhao awakened his spirit, he was a villager of Guyan Village!

Judging by the display just now, Yuhao's talent was certainly not low.

His future achievements would surely be far beyond a mere Spirit Saint!

Just as the village chief's thoughts were drifting, Zhao Chuan opened the doors of the Spirit Hall again, wearing a smile he could not conceal.

"Village Chief, your village has produced a genius with innate full spirit power this year! His future achievements will be at least that of a Titled Douluo!"

"A Titled Douluo?"

The village chief gasped; this was a realm he hadn't even dared to dream of!

"The others do not have the talent to become Spirit Masters," Zhao Chuan said, giving the village chief a routine report on the awakening results. "I must hurry back to the Spirit Hall."

The Spirit Hall Zhao Chuan referred to was not the dilapidated shack in the village.

It was the branch hall located in Feimu City of the Bala Kingdom. Besides the work of awakening spirits for children, they were also responsible for Spirit Master registration, rank certification, and the distribution of Spirit Master subsidies.

Having received a definitive answer, the village chief could no longer contain his grin.

The children who had awakened trash spirits and been thoroughly frightened walked out, looking utterly dejected.

The village chief composed his expression and patted each of them on the head.

This was the norm, after all.

Huo Yuhao walked at the very end, currently discussing his second spirit with Tian Meng and Elder Yi.

"Your second spirit scared the life out of me, brother. Its might is even stronger than Di Tian's."

Sky Dream Iceworm still felt a lingering fear.

It was truly worthy of being something that could snatch away a blank spirit slot; it was simply outrageous.

"Since your second spirit is a dragon, it is best to absorb dragon-type spirits. You might not have a chance with those at the bottom of the lake, but you could try one of the gatekeepers."

"Although it is not a dragon-type spirit beast, it possesses a high-purity Azure Dragon bloodline, which is very suitable for you."

The Sky Dream Iceworm was referring to the Azure Bull Python, that loyal sycophant of Xiao Wu.

After he was resurrected by Tang San and became a god official, he shed his python form and evolved into the Azure Divine Dragon.

"If I need to attach a spirit ring, it is indeed quite suitable."

Huo Yuhao's words left Tian Meng confused. "What do you mean?"

"My second spirit doesn't seem to need me to go out and find spirit rings. As long as I reach the required level, I can absorb the essence of heaven and earth, and it will automatically form a spirit ring."

This was information Huo Yuhao had obtained from the spirit itself while he was following Sky Dream Iceworm's train of thought regarding what kind of spirit beast he should hunt for his ring.

His second spirit was more like a legacy from the Ancestral Dragon.

However, because he was a person of the Douluo Continent and the cultivation system was different, it had humanely manifested as his spirit, waiting for him to grow strong enough to slowly unlock the inheritance.

As for absorbing spirit rings from spirit beasts?

What kind of status do they have to be worthy of touching me?

If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't generate soul rings and soul skills for Huo Yuhao's eyes simultaneously, the Ancestral Dragon Spirit would likely have monopolized all of Huo Yuhao's soul skills.

"It can even do this?"

"Is your memory from before fake, kid? You're actually a hundred-thousand-year soul beast that took human form to cultivate again, aren't you!"

Only a soul beast in human form could condense its own soul rings without needing to kill other soul beasts.

The Sky Dream Iceworm had lived for a million years, yet this was the first time he had ever seen such a situation!

Indeed, as long as one lived long enough, one would see all sorts of strange and bizarre things.

While conversing with the Sky Dream Iceworm, Huo Yuhao had already walked out of the village's Spirit Hall.

The village chief waved at him with a beaming smile, "You've become a soul master; that's a grand occasion for our village! Go home later, call your mother, and Grandpa Village Chief will treat you both to a meal today."

"Alright, then I'll grill some fish for you."

Upon hearing that Huo Yuhao was going to grill fish, the village chief smiled so hard his eyes disappeared into slits.

"Good, good, good! I'll head back right now and have Er Niu go to the river to catch a few fish!"

Huo Yuhao-brand grilled fish—the medicinal effects were guaranteed, and everyone who had eaten it said it was excellent.

Zhao Chuan's actions were even faster than Huo Yuhao had imagined.

That very afternoon, Zhao Chuan arrived at Guyan Village accompanied by a purple-robed bishop.

The middle-aged man, who appeared stern and humorless on the surface, smiled with exceptional kindness when he saw Huo Yuhao.

"I have already sent men to rush toward Spirit City; I believe someone will come to pick you up very soon."

"Before that, you will come with us to Feimu City. We have already arranged a place for you and your mother to stay."

Such a promising talent willing to join Spirit Hall could not be allowed to suffer any accidents.

Huo Yun'er had not expected that she would have to leave as well.

As an ordinary person with no strength to truss a chicken and no ability to make a living, leaving together would only make her a burden to her child.

"The village is quite good, and everyone takes great care of me. I'll just stay here..."

"Mother, you are so young; you cannot waste your youth in the countryside!"

Huo Yun'er was only in her early twenties; her life had just begun.

Of course, the most important point was that Huo Yuhao was afraid she would let her mind wander if she were left alone.

If she accidentally thought of Dai Hao, and in her loneliness and solitude began to miss their past together, it would be impossible to stop—she might even want to return and rekindle old dreams with Dai Hao...

The mere thought of it was terrifying.

Therefore, it was better to keep her busy so she wouldn't have time to think about such filthy things!

The village chief also nodded in agreement, "Yuhao is right. A fine girl like you shouldn't stay here and waste your youth."

What the village chief didn't say was that a beautiful and gentle woman like Huo Yun'er was simply too eye-catching in the village.

He knew the people in the village; they were honest and simple, not the type to harbor crooked thoughts.

However, this place was too close to the Star Dou Great Forest, and soul masters heading there to hunt soul beasts often passed through.

These soul masters were not all good people; if someone were to be moved by lust, the ordinary people in the village would have no way to stop them.

"Thank you, Village Chief, for the care you have shown me and Hao'er during this time. We will come back to visit you all often."

Carrying simple luggage, Huo Yuhao and Huo Yun'er bid farewell to those who had come to see them off.

In this strange world, Huo Yun'er was very grateful to have met such a group of good people for the first time.
