Are You a Beast Martial Soul or a Tool Martial Soul?

Ten-Year Solitary Bamboo, Ten-Year Solitary Bamboo?

With the Sea God's Trident, Bai Ran was actually looking forward to seeing whether he could get some Soul Skill like "Sea God Pole Vault."

Unfortunately, its age was simply too low.

Even with Tang Wutong's god-tier Martial Soul, he would be able to raise the Soul Ring's age limit in the future by becoming a god.

But if he showed off a white Ten-Year Soul Ring later on, his opponents would probably laugh themselves to death first.

Wasn't Huo Yuhao in the original story mocked for a long time because of a "Ten-Year Soul Ring"? Even quite a few higher-ups at the academy looked down on him. Yan Shaozhe had even stripped him of his Outer Court Core Disciple status, leaving him with only the status of a probationary Core Disciple.

Only after he obtained the Ice Jade Empress Scorpion Martial Soul with Tian Meng's help did things begin to change.

If this Lone Bamboo had been over eight hundred years old, Bai Ran would have absorbed it no matter what.

But now?

Setting aside whether he could successfully absorb a Ten-Year Solitary Bamboo Soul Ring under Da Ming and Er Ming's watchful eyes.

Even if he really absorbed it, at most he would only make Tang San angry.

Use my own future to make Tang San cry from frustration? Unless it's a system mission or I have some kind of backup plan, that would be truly stupid.

Tang San was a feudal traditionalist. Bai Ran could not guarantee whether he might favor sons over daughters or something.

"Ha~"

Seeing Bai Ran staring blankly at a Lone Bamboo.

Tang Wutong appeared behind Bai Ran and blew a long breath at him.

"Ow, what are you doing~?"

Bai Ran had been deep in thought, so Tang Wutong's sudden sound truly startled him.

"Little bastard, what are you staring at that Lone Bamboo for? Don't tell me you want to absorb a Lone Bamboo as your first Soul Ring?"

For ordinary Soul Masters without any backing, the Great Star Dou Forest was fraught with danger.

Without powerful experts protecting them, they could not defeat Hundred-Year Soul Beasts, so they could only reluctantly absorb the Soul Rings of Ten-Year Soul Beasts.

But Bai Ran? He had Tang Wutong watching over him.

No matter how down-and-out they were, there was no way he should have to absorb a Ten-Year Solitary Bamboo Soul Ring.

If you want to embarrass yourself, don't drag me down with you!

"Not really. I was just wondering whether Little Seven counts as a beast Martial Soul or a tool Martial Soul."

Tang Wutong had the Goddess of Light Butterfly, so she should be classified as having a beast Martial Soul, just like the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul.

But Tang Wutong also had the Sea God's Trident, basic version, which could likewise be classified as a tool Martial Soul.

Only by absorbing Soul Beast Soul Rings compatible with their own Martial Souls could Soul Masters gain greater benefits.

For a beast Martial Soul to absorb the Soul Ring of a plant-type Soul Beast was simply asking for trouble.

Tang San's first Soul Ring had come from a Mandala Snake that was incompatible with his Martial Soul, and he ended up gaining a useless Soul Skill like Entanglement.

Bai Ran had always been curious about that. Wasn't Entanglement supposed to be an innate ability of Blue Silver Grass? Why waste a Soul Skill on it?

But Tang San had so many Soul Skills that listing them would take forever, so losing one did not matter much to him.

Bai Ran was different. He only had Tang Wutong as his Martial Soul.

Therefore, the allocation of every Soul Ring had to be carefully considered.

"What do you think?"

"Judging by how fierce you are, like a tigress, you should count as a beast Martial Soul."

"Little! Bastard!"

As she roared, Tang Wutong's small pink fist had already struck Bai Ran on the head.

Then, the very next second, Bai Ran and Tang Wutong almost simultaneously clutched their heads.

When will this protection mechanism get weakened? It's way too overpowered.

"You mean you're essentially a Twin Martial Souls wielder? You can add Soul Rings to the Goddess of Light Butterfly, and you can also add Soul Rings to the Sea God's Trident?"

In the original story, Tang Wutong had Twin Martial Souls. One was the Goddess of Light Butterfly, while the other was the Clear Sky Hammer.

Although there were now some differences, Tang Wutong still had Twin Martial Souls. It was just that her second Martial Soul had mutated from the Clear Sky Hammer into the Sea God's Trident.

"Yes."

"That's not right. Since you can add Soul Rings to both of your Martial Souls, then what use are you, Little Seven?

Are you just a container for the two Martial Souls?"

Is this what it means for a daughter to take after her mother? Her mother, Xiao Wu, was the scabbard for the Asura Sword, while her daughter, Tang Wutong, had become the container for two super Martial Souls.

But this container was still quite important.

Without Tang Wutong, Twin Martial Souls alone could not have allowed Bai Ran's Innate Soul Power to break through level twenty.

It was Tang Wutong, this container, who bore the role of fusing the two super Martial Souls into one, thereby creating a god-tier Martial Soul.

"You're the container! You're the container!"

As Tang Wutong spoke, she raised her small pink fist again, preparing to smash it hard into Bai Ran's head.

But when she remembered that hitting him would inflict the same damage on herself, Tang Wutong ultimately held back.

"Then which one should I add a Soul Ring to first?"

The Goddess of Light Butterfly was the Butterfly God's Blessing, and the Butterfly Goddess was a second-rank god.

The Sea God's Trident, meanwhile, had been bestowed by the Sea God bloodline, and the Sea God was a first-rank god.

Judging by the gods' ranks, she should add Soul Rings to the Goddess of Light Butterfly first, saving the good Soul Rings for the Sea God's Trident.

However, Tang Wutong's Sea God's Trident was a silver-white basic model, and no one knew whether it could evolve into the true Sea God's Trident in the future.

The Goddess of Light Butterfly, on the other hand, was explicitly capable of evolving in the original story.

It only needed to fuse with a powerful dragon bloodline to evolve into the Bright Dragon God Butterfly.
