If hoe or sickle martial spirits were granted innate soul power, a farmer who could previously summon only one could, after cultivation, summon several, drastically increasing the efficiency of tilling the land.
Farmers would no longer be trapped in the fields all day; they would have spare time to study, seek entertainment, and provide for themselves!
As she pondered this, Qian Xunqian decided that the research and development of an innate soul power cultivation device needed to be put on the agenda.
Ning Fengzhi, the young sect master of the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect, as a noble of the purest bloodline, could not help but acknowledge the validity of Qian Xunqian's explanation.
Bibi Dong, a country girl of commoner origin, nodded repeatedly. Thinking of Qian Xunqian's theory on innate soul power cultivation, her admiration for the child she held in her arms grew even further.
So, Sister Xunqian was researching this not just for soul masters, but for everyone!
The contrast was simply too stark, and the last shred of Bibi Dong's feelings for Yu Xiaogang vanished completely.
"Sister Xunqian, today is the day you awaken your martial spirit. Let's go quickly; don't lower yourself to the level of a loser!"
Bibi Dong finally spat out the word "loser."
Ning Fengzhi politely shook hands with Yu Xiaogang, delivering the final killing blow:
"Greetings, my surname is Ning, given name Fengzhi. I am the young sect master of the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect, and also the fiancé of Her Highness the Saintess."
Yu Xiaogang's heart was bleeding!
"No!!!"
The three of them turned to leave.
"Wait!"
"Is there something else?" Bibi Dong asked impatiently.
"You may ignore me now, but one day you will find me beyond your reach! The river flows east for thirty years, then west for thirty years; do not bully a young man because he is poor! Bibi Dong! You just wait! The day I achieve fame and success, I will make you kneel and beg for me!"
Bibi Dong was amused. She wanted to scold him, but after a moment's thought, she decided to tease this fool instead.
"Very well, we shall see in thirty years."
The future number one theoretical master of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's direct bloodline—Yu Xiaogang—turned with a flourish, waving his sleeves without taking a single cloud with him!
"Extend your right hand." It was the Great Elder Qian Daoliu who awakened Qian Xunqian's martial spirit. "Do not resist; feel the changes in your body."
Qian Xunqian closed her eyes. Her eyes felt itchy, as if something were about to grow out from within them.
Immediately, she opened her eyes, which flashed with a dazzling golden light that appeared incredibly sacred to onlookers.
As she regained her composure, her original irises had turned gold, indistinguishable from the gold of the Six-Winged Angel martial spirit.
At the same time, she felt something stirring in her left hand. Qian Xunqian followed the flow, and a large, leafless, pale pink flower sprouted forth.
The petals were particularly unique, each one as clear and crystalline as crystal, reflecting the golden light from her eyes. The stamen was a deep, pale purple, as if inlaid with tiny purple diamonds.
Simultaneously, a faint, elegant fragrance wafted throughout Spirit Hall.
"The residual poison in my body... it's gone," Yue Guan said joyfully. What delighted him even more was the Second Young Lady's martial spirit.
Yue Guan accidentally slid to his knees, his entire body trembling—a tremor of pure excitement that his brain could not control!
Beside him, Elder Gui Mei looked on with disdain and grumbled:
"Are you serious? When we awakened our martial spirits together back then, you weren't this excited! Why have you become like this now? You are an elder of Spirit Hall! Have some dignity!"
"Fragrant... Silk... Immortal Herb!"
Qian Xunqian thought to herself: So, my mother wasn't just some ordinary person after all...
Watching Yue Guan, who was so excited he was nearly foaming at the mouth, Qian Xunqian decided to leave this moment of showing off to Elder Yue; after all, she was truly invincible in theory.
Besides, a true scholar would not constantly seek to show off their knowledge.
Most importantly, given the current situation, if she didn't let Yue Guan speak, he might actually stop breathing and drop dead from the shock.
"Elder Yue comes from a family of immortal herbs and must be very knowledgeable about my martial spirit. Let him explain it."
Yue Guan took a deep breath, adjusted his state, and began to speak eloquently:
"The Fragrant Silk Immortal Herb is the king of immortal herbs. It can neutralize all toxins. Its true power isn't just in curing poison, but in using its fragrance to form an 'anti-poison domain' around it. Within this domain, any toxin becomes ineffective! A hundred-year-old Fragrant Silk can radiate a range of ten meters!"
"Any toxin! And it's a domain skill?" Gui Mei was shocked. "Does that mean we don't have to worry about the Dugu Family anymore?"
Yue Guan rapped the Ghost Douluo on the head.
"The Dugu Family is practically being wiped out by their own Jade Phosphor Snake poison! What are you worried about!"
"Furthermore, as the king of immortal herbs, it also has the effect of clearing the meridians and strengthening the body. For an assault-type soul master, while not as good as my Wondrous Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum, it is still top-tier."
"Not only does it benefit assault-types, but it also strengthens the foundation, removes impurities from the body, and increases a soul master's cultivation speed. It is a treasure for support-type soul masters, especially food-type soul masters!"
Yue Guan smiled slightly.
"Super martial spirits are usually tainted with extreme attributes. The world is imperfect, and nothing can be flawless. This causes soul masters with super martial spirits to cultivate extremely slowly. At the very least, the Young Lady won't be like me, barely breaking through to Title Douluo at nearly forty."
(A small patch: I feel that for non-angel Title Douluos in Spirit Hall, besides Tian E, the ones with the highest talent should be Yue Guan with his immortal herb martial spirit and Gui Mei with his body martial spirit. As an immortal herb, the Wondrous Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum is at least a super martial spirit; the low level is due to the slow cultivation speed of high-quality martial spirits.)
"However, although the Fragrant Silk Immortal Herb is excellent, it is precisely because it is too good that soul beasts have almost no resistance to its fragrance. Therefore, it can be a bit troublesome when hunting soul beasts..."
Gui Mei nodded. Alright, Chrysanthemum Guan, it's my turn to show off.
"The Second Young Lady's eyes should be a Body Spirit like mine. Over these years, aside from my cultivation and official duties at the Pope's Palace, I have also been taking the time to research knowledge in this area."
"I categorize this type of spirit as a Body Spirit. Generally speaking, the innate spirit power of a Body Spirit is not high, which is why they have been called trash spirits for thousands of years."
Qian Xunqian: ?Elder Gui Mei, you have theories too?
Yu Xiaogang: I am a clown.
"My own innate spirit power was only level five back then. My spirit is my soul, which can be considered one of the most important parts of the human body, so my spirit power was relatively higher, but I only managed to cultivate to just past the Spirit Saint level in my entire life..."
"However, I was lucky. During an encounter where I was attacked by a spirit beast and nearly lost my life, I accidentally unleashed my body's potential, which raised the quality of my soul spirit to a new level, much like a second spirit awakening. Since then, my cultivation speed has been rapid, leading me all the way to breaking through to Title Douluo. The saying 'thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river' is exactly the case for someone like me!"
"Yo-ho! Old Ghost, so you have a story of your own!" Chrysanthemum Douluo laughed teasingly.
Qian Daoliu rubbed his forehead, thinking: Our Spirit Hall is truly a mixed bag; we have all sorts of monsters and freaks here.
