The Beginnings of the Soul Spirit System

These past few days, Huo Yuhao had deliberately asked questions related to Soul Rings during class, piquing Electrolux's interest in them.

After all, the power system of Electrolux's world was completely different from that of the Douluo World.

Different meant something fresh.

Electrolux said, "This book is worth reading. I feel that Soul Rings can perhaps be altered in some way. After all, Big Bug and Little Scorpion have now become very special Wisdom Soul Rings.

"However, Big Bug and Little Scorpion's current state also has certain flaws. If those flaws can be improved, perhaps their condition will become much better. Your other Soul Rings may also undergo changes in the future, and your strength will grow as well!"

"Thank you for your help, Elder Yi! Once I recover my memories from before my reincarnation and cultivation anew, I'll definitely take you to the Divine Realm to become a god!" Huo Yuhao said joyfully.

He had always felt that, in the original work, if Elder Yi had created Soul Spirits earlier and had not died, Huo Gua would definitely have become much stronger.

Including the Evil Emperor in the end, all of Huo Gua's Soul Spirits barely added up to seven. Those Soul Spirits happened to carry seven emotions, making it seem as though Huo Gua's life had been arranged long ago.

Actually, according to the setting, Huo Gua could theoretically only carry nine Soul Spirits. This setting came from Douluo III, where people speculated that Huo Gua, the founder of the Spirit Pagoda, could carry at most nine Soul Spirits.

However, that speculation was definitely wrong. After all, Huo Gua was extraordinarily gifted in Spiritual Power. In Tang Sect Heroes' Legend, Huo Gua was even the number one in divine consciousness within the Douluo Divine Realm. Even Tang Buddha could not compare to Huo Gua in that regard.

Therefore, Huo Yuhao had confidence in his own capacity. He believed that his future limit could never possibly be just nine; he could definitely create several more Soul Spirits.

"Take me to the Divine Realm?" Electrolux was somewhat gratified. "Even though your memories of your past life have yet to awaken, in my eyes, you are still a good child. I will teach you everything I know and help you return to the Divine Realm. Are you willing to take me as your master?"

In truth, Electrolux did not particularly care whether he could go to the Divine Realm. In his view, he was already a dead man, and he had long since taken many things lightly. At most, he was somewhat curious about the Divine Realm.

However, after spending this time together, he had also come to feel that Huo Yuhao's character and temperament were truly quite good. Naturally, he was willing to pass down everything he knew to Huo Yuhao.

Within the Sea of Consciousness, Huo Yuhao's spiritual body directly shouted, "Master!"

Elder Yi, I want to improve so badly!

Looking at the entire story, Electrolux's help to Huo Gua had actually been immense. Without Electrolux, Huo Gua would have taken much longer to become a god. After all, whether it was the Demiplane, necromancy magic, or the Soul Spirit System, each had played a crucial role for Huo Gua.

The Soul Spirit System in particular had an extraordinarily far-reaching impact on the Douluo Continent. Without question, the Soul Spirit System was more useful than the Soul Ring System.

And honestly speaking, Electrolux truly treated his students very well. Thus, taking Electrolux as his master was actually an extremely worthwhile thing.

Electrolux said, "Good, Yuhao. From today onward, you are this old man's final disciple!"

The two spoke for a while longer before Electrolux began reading. For an existence at his level, he did not actually need to flip through books to see their contents. Still, Huo Yuhao helping him find books alleviated some of his strain.

After all, he was now merely a fragment of divine consciousness, like duckweed without roots, and he truly was somewhat weak.

Huo Yuhao pulled several more books on Soul Ring theory from the shelves and placed them directly on the table. Then, he began searching the shelves for books to prepare for the Rank 3 Soul Engineer examination.

Very quickly, he found a suitable book. Its title was "From Second Level Soul Engineer to Rank 3 Soul Engineer: On the Advancement of Core Array Grades."

The book's author was Jing Hongchen, a Rank 9 Soul Engineer, so it was trustworthy.

Thus, he began reading the book and absorbing the knowledge within related to Soul Tools. Jing Hongchen had not held back information in the book like that Tang fellow, so Huo Yuhao found it rather easy to learn from it.

As he studied, time passed swiftly.

That afternoon, Huo Yuhao walked out of the library. He felt that Rank 3 Soul Tool Core Arrays were simply too easy. In a few more days, he should be able to take the Rank 3 Soul Engineer assessment. Moreover, during his studies, Elder Yi had also said that he wanted to conduct an experiment once Huo Yuhao reached Rank 30.

The so-called experiment was naturally the Soul Spirit.

It could be said that Huo Yuhao had reaped a full harvest from this trip to the library.

At that moment, Ju Zi, who had been waiting outside for a long time, walked over. She held a lunchbox in her hands. "Yuhao, you've studied for so long. You should be hungry, right? This senior has some food here and hopes you'll give it a taste."

Huo Yuhao froze for a moment and looked at Ju Zi suspiciously. "Senior Ju Zi, why are you suddenly giving me food? This isn't some dark cuisine, is it?"

"Dark cuisine? It shouldn't be that bad." A faint smile appeared on Ju Zi's face.

Ke Ke, standing nearby, looked as though she were struggling not to laugh. As Ju Zi's close friend, she had naturally come along when Ju Zi delivered the meal. However, this meal truly was somewhat special.

Seeing Ke Ke's expression, Huo Yuhao became even more puzzled. Still, considering that Ju Zi would not harm him, he nodded. "All right, then I'll take it back and eat it."

"Hey, wait, you can't take it back to eat!" Ke Ke said anxiously. "Junior Yuhao, just consider it helping Ju Zi out!"

"Helping her?" Huo Yuhao grew even more confused. Then he looked at Ju Zi and said, word by word, "Senior Ju Zi, if you refuse to tell me the truth, then you won't be getting any grilled fish this week. Senior Ju Zi, you wouldn't want to go without grilled fish, would you?"

He did not like this passive feeling of being pushed along by others, so he had to ask Ju Zi what her purpose was.

As for the grilled fish, in order to further deepen their relationship, he had agreed during this period that, as long as he was in a good mood, he would grill Ju Zi a meal of fish once a week.

Upon hearing that, Ju Zi immediately panicked. She hurriedly said, "Wait! I'll tell you! Actually, I studied your seasonings and then made this food, so I wanted to see your reaction after eating it. If you took it back to eat, I wouldn't be able to see your reaction."

Ke Ke clenched her fists and said through gritted teeth, "That's right. In order to make food that might satisfy you, Ju Zi got up early this morning to cook for you.

"Even I, her best friend, don't get such good treatment. You hateful Ju Zi, when we get back, I'm going to smack your butt hard! You've hurt me too much. Our sisterhood of so many years actually can't compare to a handsome junior!"

"Ke Ke, what are you talking about?! Don't spout nonsense!" Ju Zi reached out and pinched Ke Ke's waist, signaling for her not to continue.
