Innate Martial Soul! Courtesy First, Force Second!
Yu Xiaogang stood frozen in place.
He looked at the few gray wolves lying on the ground, then at the pack that had already run away, and the last bit of hope in his heart shattered.
He opened his mouth, as if to say something, but his throat felt blocked by something, and he couldn't utter a single word.
After a long while, Yu Luomian patted him on the shoulder.
"Yu Xiaogang, don't be discouraged."
"At least... it did have some effect."
"Look, those wolves are indeed asleep."
Yu Xiaogang forced a smile, a smile that looked more like a grimace, "Thank you, Second Uncle... I'm fine."
He said that, but inside he was filled with overwhelming despair.
Why?
Why did he work so hard to study the Martial Soul Theory?
They carefully selected their soul beasts.
And yet, this is still the result we got?
He was unwilling to accept it!
But reality was like a bucket of ice water poured over his head, chilling him to the bone.
Yu Yuanzhen finally spoke, his tone calm. "Alright, now that we've tried the Soul Skill, let's pack up and continue on our way."
"Xiao Gan's soul beast has not been found yet."
He didn't offer any words of comfort, but he also didn't criticize.
Only Yu Yuanzhen himself knew how much disappointment was hidden beneath that calm.
Yu Xiaogang lowered his head and silently put Luo Sanpao away. He followed at the back of the group, walking step by step.
Two weeks have passed.
The plaza in front of the Spirit Hall and the Pope Palace.
There were about twenty people standing in the square; these were the people the Spirit Hall had gathered during this period.
There are a total of twenty-two Soul Master who are suspected of possessing their Body Martial Soul.
The youngest is only six years old, and the oldest is twelve.
Wang Ping was among them.
A Platinum Bishop stood in front of them and said, "Form two rows, eleven in each row."
"You are all willing to join the Spirit Hall."
"We'll be meeting the Pope and Teacher Yu Changge soon, so both of you better be alert."
Soon, the twenty-two people were lined up as required.
It would be a lie to say I wasn't nervous.
Of these twenty-odd people, six had backgrounds, meaning they were Soul Master, but their Martial Soul Mutation.
The remaining sixteen people were all commoners or slaves.
They were all very excited, wondering what the Pope would look like, and also what their teacher, Yu Changge, would be like, as they were eager to discover his Body Martial Soul.
I'd guess he's a learned middle-aged or elderly person?
Soon, the doors of the Pope Palace were opened.
The gate was opened by Yue Guan and Gui Mei.
Then three people, one big and two small, walked out from inside.
In the middle is Qian Xunji, and walking on either side of Qian Xunji are Bibi Dong and Yu Changge.
The three walked to the front of the square and stopped.
Qian Xunji glanced at the twenty-two children below and slowly spoke.
"I am Qian Xunji, the Pope of the Spirit Hall."
"First of all, welcome to the Spirit Hall."
"The Spirit Hall has always valued talent. Regardless of your background, as long as you have potential, the Spirit Hall will provide you with the best resources."
"And you are the 'talents' that the Spirit Hall values highly."
"Of course, you may not yet understand the potential within yourselves."
"But that's alright, you'll understand soon enough."
"From now on, this person beside me, Yu Changge, will be in charge of everything for you."
"You've probably all heard about his concept of Body Martial Soul."
"From now on, he will tell you just how powerful your Martial Soul truly are."
After Qian Xunji finished speaking, he took a step back and gave his seat to Yu Changge.
Yu Changge stepped forward and looked at the twenty or so Soul Master with their Body Martial Soul before him; he was quite satisfied.
Although the number isn't large, it's not small either.
Then, he scanned the first row one by one.
Some have Martial Soul Hair, some have Martial Soul one arm, some have Martial Soul Double Arms, and some have Martial Soul eyes.
Finally, his gaze fell upon one person.
[Wang Ping, Innate Soul Power level two (innate deficiency), Martial Soul: the main body (all body parts)]
The entire body's Body Martial Soul!
He finally found it!
Yu Changge smiled slightly and looked away.
He cleared his throat and addressed everyone.
"Let me introduce myself, my name is Yu Changge."
"I am the one who researched and developed the Body Martial Soul."
"From now on, I will be fully responsible for the development of your own Martial Soul."
Upon hearing this, a low gasp of surprise immediately rose from below.
The children stared wide-eyed, their faces filled with disbelief.
They originally thought that someone who could propose the theory of Body Martial Soul was someone who could achieve this.
It should be a very old, knowledgeable middle-aged or elderly person.
They might even have gray hair and wear thick glasses.
And the result?
Standing before them was clearly a boy not much older than them.
She looked to be only fourteen or fifteen years old.
This person is... way too young!
But no one dared to question it.
Because the Pope was standing right next to them, making his stance very clear.
This young man is their leader.
Yu Changge ignored their surprised looks and continued speaking.
"I have reviewed all your files."
"Talent varies; the lowest Innate Soul Power is only level one, and the Innate Soul Power is only level five."
"However, what I want to say is that what the Body Martial Soul values most is not actually Innate Soul Power."
"It is the potential inherent in the Body Martial Soul itself."
"Of course, I will explain this to you gradually later."
"Since you're willing to come, we will naturally keep our promise."
"The first issue concerns material support."
Yu Changge gave the Cardinal beside her a wink.
The Cardinal approached, carrying a tray with twenty-two rings on it.
"Each of you may possess a Soul Tool."
"The space inside isn't large, only one cubic meter, but that's enough for your daily needs for now."
"There are also five thousand Gold Soul Coin inside."
"You don't need to worry about your economic situation either."
This statement immediately caused an uproar below.
The children couldn't stop smiling.
It should be noted that Soul Tool are extremely rare in this era.
Moreover, they are difficult to manufacture; most Soul Tool are found by searching various ruins.
The Spirit Hall was able to provide twenty-two members at once to these newly joined members.
The scale of the project was considerable.
Moreover, there are five thousand Gold Soul Coin inside!
Keep in mind that a Soul Elder can only receive one hundred Gold Soul Coin per month.
This was already a huge sum of money for ordinary people and small families like them.
Yu Changge saw that the "first courtesy" had been done, and now it was time to "follow up with force."
