Innate Full Soul Power! Earth Shadow Stone! Earth Tiger Armor Fusion!

Soul Land, Yun Family Village.

"What a strange stone. It's actually innate full soul power. You're really lucky."

"Unfortunately, it's a useless martial soul. But are you interested in joining Spirit Hall?"

"Spirit Hall has a wealth of knowledge. Perhaps you can find a way to develop that brown stone."

Inside the Awakening Hall, Su Yuntao looked at the scene before him and spoke in surprise.

In the handsome youth's hand was a brown stone.

In his eyes, it was undoubtedly a useless martial soul.

Still, if developed properly, it would hurt quite a bit to hit someone with a stone.

The youth was named Yun Tian. He was not from this world, but a transmigrator.

His left hand rested on the soul-testing orb, which shone brilliantly.

This was a sign of innate full soul power at rank ten.

Yun Tian shook his head. "No, I don't plan to join Spirit Hall. I plan to attend school first. As for joining Spirit Hall, we can talk about it later."

"Alright, then that's truly a pity. This is your martial soul awakening certificate. Keep it safe."

Su Yuntao felt somewhat disappointed, as his bonus had gone down the drain. He personally wrote up a document and handed it to Yun Tian before leaving the hall.

When Yun Tian walked out of the hall, he was the only child in this batch to awaken soul power.

Grandpa Village Chief hurried over with a smile. "That's wonderful, Xiao Tian. You have innate full soul power. Although it's a stone, you can at least become a soul master in the future. You are the hope of our Yun Family Village. Since you won't be joining Spirit Hall, go study at Notting City Junior Soul Master Academy. The village's work-study student spot can be used for you."

In Su Yuntao's eyes, a stone martial soul with innate full soul power was useless, but in the village chief's eyes, it was a powerful martial soul.

"Okay, Grandpa Village Chief. Don't worry, I'll become a powerful soul master and lead the village to prosperity," Yun Tian said confidently.

Why was he so confident?

Because his martial soul was not some useless martial soul, nor was it some lousy stone.

It was the Earth Shadow Stone.

That was right, the Earth Shadow Stone that summoned the Earth Tiger Armor in the first Armor Hero series!

At the moment his martial soul awakened, the Earth Shadow Village bloodline within him had also been activated.

He felt especially close to the earth.

After saying goodbye to the village chief, he returned to his house alone.

He was an orphan with no parents. The village chief had found him in the back mountains, and he had grown up eating meals from every household.

He only had himself to look after.

Buzz!

He raised his right hand, and the brown Earth Shadow Stone appeared.

Dense earth-element power spread outward.

He closed his eyes and sensed the earth's mysteries.

Guided by the Earth Shadow Stone, an indescribably profound feeling arose in his heart.

The power of the surrounding earth rapidly gathered around him, then condensed into a yellow hundred-year soul ring.

This soul ring had been condensed by the Earth Shadow Stone itself, borrowing the earth's inexhaustible energy. It possessed the ability to grow.

His soul power broke through its bottleneck and reached rank eleven.

This also meant that, unlike other soul masters, he did not need to hunt soul beasts and absorb their soul rings every time he broke through another ten ranks.

That was indeed good news.

He read through the memories in his mind.

He learned what his first soul skill was.

"Earth Tiger Armor Fusion!"

Yun Tian shouted in a low voice.

The power of the earth instantly covered his entire body, forming a brown suit of armor with a tiger-head design.

The Earth Shadow Stone in his hand disappeared and merged into the armor.

As long as the Earth Tiger Armor stood upon the ground, it could possess an endless supply of power—an inexhaustible energy source in theory.

In the original Armor Hero story, that guy had been a jumping tiger and failed to bring out the Earth Tiger Armor's advantages, which was why it had seemed so weak.

The second team, on the other hand, had used it very well.

"My whole body is filled with inexhaustible power. My current strength is comparable to a rank twenty-one Grand Soul Master. Wearing the armor directly raises my combat power by ten ranks. It really is powerful."

"Once I reach rank eighty, I'll have the strength of a rank ninety Titled Douluo."

"Not bad, not bad."

Yun Tian clenched his fists, feeling the surging energy within him, and was immensely satisfied.

Besides that, he could also normally use the skills and weapons that came with this armor.

It was only because of his rank that he could not yet unleash their true power.

With a thought, he released the fusion state.

At the same time, someone knocked on the door.

When he opened it, he found Grandpa Village Chief outside.

"Grandpa Village Chief, what is it?" Yun Tian asked.

Grandpa Village Chief said, "I found out that Notting City Junior Soul Master Academy will be enrolling students in three months. I'll take you there to enroll when the time comes."

"I understand, Grandpa." Yun Tian nodded.

In the blink of an eye, three months passed.

After three months of exploring the power of the earth and the bloodline within his body, Yun Tian had naturally grown even stronger.

During those three months, he had not neglected his cultivation. He was now a rank fifteen one-ring soul master.

He had risen by more than one rank per month. That cultivation speed was terrifying even in the entire world.

Given his current qualifications, he already met Notting Academy's graduation requirements.

As long as he wished, he could apply for graduation immediately upon enrolling.

But he did not intend to do that. Since he had come, he would experience it properly.

He wanted to meet Tang San and Xiao Wu in person.

The scene shifted.

Notting City, Junior Soul Master Academy.

Yun Tian arrived at the academy gates alone.

He had not let Grandpa Village Chief see him off, because the old man was elderly, and it would be inconvenient for him to travel there and back. So Yun Tian politely declined his offer to accompany him. He had come in a delivery cart from the village, since it was conveniently on the way.

When Yun Tian arrived, the gatekeeper happened to be absent. He walked straight into the academy, followed the signs to the new student registration office, and handed his martial soul awakening document and work-study student document to the teachers. Amid their shocked gazes, he completed registration and successfully became a student.

Following the information on the token, he arrived at Dorm Seven.

The instant he opened the door, a fist the size of a sandbag came flying at his face.

Already prepared, Yun Tian lightly sidestepped and avoided it.

The fist swept past his face with a fierce gust of wind.

The person who had attacked him was none other than Wang Sheng.

It seemed Tang San and Xiao Wu had not arrived yet. He had come before them.

Yun Tian raised his hand and threw a solid, heavy punch at Wang Sheng's abdomen.

Wang Sheng promptly crossed both arms to block, but he was still knocked far back. He only barely stopped after slamming into the wall.

The people in the dormitory revealed looks of surprise.

This work-study student who had arrived was pretty formidable.

Wang Sheng was also utterly shocked. His blocking arms had gone numb.

"Why did you attack me?" Yun Tian asked despite knowing the answer.

"These are Dorm Seven's rules. I'm the boss. If you beat me, you're the boss. If you lose, you become my lackey!"

"Battle Tiger, possess me!"

Wang Sheng shook out his hands. As he spoke, he completed his Battle Tiger possession. His muscles grew larger, his body taller, and he became filled with a fierce aura.

The next second, he charged straight at Yun Tian.

He viciously swept out his sharp tiger claws.

Yun Tian gathered soul power in his right palm and struck!

Bang!

Wang Sheng felt as if his claws had not struck a person, but a thick earthen wall.

He was sent flying once again.

Yun Tian took a step forward, his body shooting out like a cannonball. In the blink of an eye, he was before Wang Sheng. Before the other could react, he thrust out a palm.

Bang!

Wang Sheng slammed heavily into the wall, spat out a mouthful of saliva, then collapsed onto the floor, unable to get back up.

"So strong... It hurts..."
