Top-Tier Detached Martial Soul? Gangzi, You Useless Trash

"Okay~ I promise you. I won't bully him anymore. After all, he's your brother~"

Lin Yichen lightly scratched Xiao Wu's nose.

"Alright, go to sleep. It's getting late."

"Seriously, I still have to work tomorrow."

A flicker of discomfort appeared on Xiao Wu's face as she said this.

Combining this with his memories of the original story, Lin Yichen naturally realized that Xiao Wu was currently studying at Notting Academy as a work-study student.

"I'll give you some money. Then you won't have to work anymore; you'll just need to pay your tuition."

"Hehe, no need. I'd be troubling you, Brother Yichen. Do you want to come sleep with me in Dorm Seven tonight?"

Xiao Wu's pretty face flushed again.

Before Xiao Wu could react, Lin Yichen scooped her up in a princess carry.

"Ah, Brother Yichen, Dorm Seven is over there. You're going the wrong way."

Ever since Xiao Wu defeated Xiao Chenyu in her first year, she had become the undisputed big sister of Notting Academy.

And now, being held in such an intimate position by a man, she naturally drew plenty of discussion from the people around them.

That night, moonlight spilled into Dorm Seven.

Xiao Wu had already fallen asleep, clinging to him.

After gaining sentience ten thousand years later and leaving Lin Yichen, Xiao Wu had also been taught by her mother that men and women should keep their distance.

So she had always been thinking about Lin Yichen, which changed the original plot where she and Tang San shared a bed.

However, the things that happened between her and Tang San at the start of the school term would still happen.

Tang San was still Xiao Wu's brother in name.

But Lin Yichen did not care in the slightest. After all, Xiao Wu belonged to him now.

No one could take her away.

Still, Lin Yichen really needed to plan out how to spend these ten days.

It was unrealistic to stay with Xiao Wu every single day.

He lowered his head and looked at Xiao Wu's sleeping face, his heart softening.

She was so beautiful.

He would definitely let her live comfortably.

Besides, he did not have much money right now.

The only ten gold soul coins he had were given to him by Dugu Yan.

Dugu Yan.

At the thought of her, Lin Yichen felt a chill run through his body. He also felt that he had let her down.

Lin Yichen stayed awake all night, imagining the future.

Early the next morning, Lin Yichen got up and left a note by Xiao Wu's bed.

It roughly said that they would no longer need to do cleaning work, that he had spoken to the academy teachers and had their tuition waived, and that he was going out to earn some money and would bring back food for them.

Xiao Wu was overjoyed when she saw it and immediately went wandering around campus with Tang San.

Sure enough, the academy had already arranged work for them.

And they were still paid as usual.

Tang San, however, felt rather conflicted.

Was this person really so influential?

Then what did that make his teacher?

At this moment, Lin Yichen was already far from Notting City. Looking at the ten gold soul coins in his arms, he had only one goal.

To fight in the Soul Arena!

This was also the main source of income for soul masters.

He was already a six-ringed soul master, so naturally he could not go to Spirit Hall to claim a soul master stipend.

He had set out at six in the morning.

It was just that...

It was too far! Notting City and Soto City were too far apart.

Even at the full speed of an ordinary six-ringed soul master, it would take at least two days to return.

Even though his Lunar Jade Rabbit was a control-and-agility-type martial soul,

it would still take at least a day!

Not to mention that he still needed to fight several matches there.

What was he supposed to do?

The road Lin Yichen had taken was a side path. Unlike the broad roads used by merchant caravans, few people traveled here.

Whatever. Since it had come to this, he could only use a soul skill!

As Lin Yichen thought this, his feet were already itching to move.

The Lunar Jade Rabbit poked its head out from his shoulder.

Only then did Lin Yichen realize that it was actually a detached martial soul!

A top-tier detached martial soul!

It could fight in coordination with its host, and its soul skills could take effect on both the martial soul and the host.

Yet that useless Gangzi actually thought Three Cannons was a useless martial soul?

As expected of useless Gangzi. He did not know how to use a detached martial soul and still called it trash!

Lin Yichen was greatly shocked, because he had discovered something even more incredible.

This detached martial soul could possess him!

And after possession, all the benefits granted by the detached martial soul could be returned and added to the host at a hundred percent effectiveness!

In other words...

"First Soul Skill! Moonshadow Step!"

A silvery-white glow surrounded both Lin Yichen and the Lunar Jade Rabbit.

The main effect of Lin Yichen's first soul skill was to increase speed.

After using the first soul skill, the movement speed of both the host and martial soul increased by 300% from their original levels!

And what was even more outrageous was that, with a thought from Lin Yichen, the Lunar Jade Rabbit possessed him, and a rabbit phantom appeared behind him.

Stacked!

Lin Yichen's own speed had now increased by 600%!

It had already far surpassed the speed of ordinary Titled Douluo!

One shichen would be enough!

But running at full speed consumed an enormous amount of soul power.

But it was fine! At worst, he could spend a day having fun there!

No sooner said than done!

With Moonshadow Step and martial soul possession, his speed stacked sixfold, and Lin Yichen's figure almost turned into a silver streak in the morning breeze.

A journey that would normally take an ordinary person five days was completed in just one shichen, and he had already caught sight of Soto City's outline.

It was only nine in the morning.

More than half of his soul power had already been depleted, and it was not yet midnight.

He could not replenish his soul power through moonlight yet.

However, the top-grade immortal herb, Moon Palace Branch, that he had consumed had more uses than that.

Guanghan was yin-aligned. If he stayed somewhere cool and shaded, his soul power would recover far faster than normal.

That was also why Lin Yichen had sprinted along the side path.

The roadside was shaded. Sunlight could barely reach it, giving him ample time to recover.

That was why, after crossing two cities at full speed, he had only used up half his soul power.

And now, his main task was to register at the Soto Great Soul Arena!

Great Soul Arenas could be found in practically every city.

Soto City was not a small county town like Notting City. It could be considered a relatively developed city.

The main reason Lin Yichen had come to Soto City was that Notting City's Great Soul Arena was too small. It only allowed soul masters between levels twenty and twenty-nine to compete.

For him, that would just be bullying weaklings, and he could not enter anyway.

When Lin Yichen arrived at the Soto Great Soul Arena, his first impression was that it was huge.

There had never been such a building in the Star Dou Great Forest.

It covered nearly one-tenth of the entire Soto City!

Lin Yichen walked inside, and the first things that reached his ears were all kinds of curses and fighting sounds.

The battles sounded extremely intense.

"Don't recognize you. New here?"

A middle-aged man looked Lin Yichen over. Judging from where he was sitting, he should have been the registration clerk.

"Yes, I'm new. It's my first time fighting in the Soul Arena."

"The registration fee is ten gold soul coins."

The middle-aged man did not even raise his head, as though he was used to this.

Lin Yichen's heart skipped a beat.

Just enough...

Fortunately, he had not spent any over the past two days. He also had to thank that breakfast lady.

Lin Yichen handed the gold soul coins to the middle-aged man.

Upon receiving the coins, the man took out a sheet of paper.

"Name, age, soul power, martial soul type and name."

After saying that, he took out an iron badge.

"Once you fill in the basic information, you can take the badge and participate in matches."

Why did they need to check so much?

"Name: Lin Yichen. Age: eighteen. Soul power: level sixty-three. Martial soul: Lunar Jade Rabbit. Control-and-agility type."

"Eighteen, first time in the Soul Arena, so... what level soul power?"
