Can You Kill a Thousand-Year Soul Beast?

Master and Tang San were even more shaken. Nine Hearts Begonia's support ability was already terrifying, so just how terrifying would Nine Spirit Black Tang be?

Master understood the nature of Mutated Martial Souls: they either became weaker or stronger. But the chance of becoming weaker accounted for ninety percent, just like how the children of close relatives might be born foolish, though there was also an extremely tiny chance that a wise person beyond ordinary people would appear.

His own Martial Soul, for example, was a malignant mutation, leaving him unable to break through Level 30 for his entire life.

Master said, "Since your Martial Soul is a stronger mutation, then in the future, you will certainly possess unimaginable support abilities. However, are you truly not Twin Martial Souls?"

Ye Yu smiled bitterly. "No. Or rather, not for now, I suppose."

Master frowned. "That is strange. According to my theory, you should be even more likely than Xiao San to have Twin Martial Souls, yet you do not."

Master had not expected that he would actually make a mistake. He had miscalculated.

Master asked, "Xiao Yu, do you feel that your future Soul Skills will only be healing?"

Nine Hearts Begonia had only one skill: healing. But since this was the mutated Nine Spirit Black Tang, perhaps it would be different. In his heart, Master hoped even more that Ye Yu's Nine Spirit Black Tang's support would not be limited to healing.

Ye Yu said, "Although I'm not sure, I feel it won't only have healing, because I can sense that Nine Spirit Black Tang doesn't only possess gentleness, but also fierceness."

Hearing this, Master felt it probably would not have only one skill. If it could possess strength, defense, and so on, then it would be formidable. Combined with Ye Yu's own terrifying physique, even as a Support System Soul Master, he was afraid Ye Yu would not be someone Battle Soul Masters could easily deal with.

Support System Soul Masters were all very weak themselves and needed others' protection. Master felt that in the future, a combat-type Support System Soul Master was about to be born.

Ye Yu looked at Tang San. Although he knew Tang San had Twin Martial Souls, he still had to pretend to be surprised.

"Xiao San, you have Twin Martial Souls?"

Master was instantly embarrassed. He had originally thought the two of them both knew about each other, but clearly, Ye Yu did not know that Tang San had Twin Martial Souls.

If he had known this earlier, he would have spoken to them separately.

Master said apologetically, "Xiao San, sorry. I thought you both knew."

Tang San said, "I do have Twin Martial Souls, but Xiao Yu didn't know. Master, you don't need to feel sorry. Xiao Yu is my good friend, so it doesn't matter if he knows."

Ye Yu nodded and promised, "Mm, I won't tell anyone."

Master nodded, no longer dwelling on it inwardly.

Tang San was curious. "Master, how did you know I had Twin Martial Souls?"

Although Master's prediction about Ye Yu had been wrong, perhaps Ye Yu was an exception. Master surely had his own theoretical reasons.

Master explained, "I once investigated six hundred and forty-seven people whose Martial Soul was Blue Silver Grass. Only sixteen of them possessed soul power, and not one had soul power exceeding level one. Yet you are Innate Full Soul Power. According to one of the Ten Core Competencies of Martial Soul I have researched, soul power is directly proportional to the quality of the Martial Soul. High soul power means the Martial Soul is also an extremely powerful Martial Soul, yet your Martial Soul is Blue Silver Grass. That means you must have another Martial Soul, and moreover, it is an extremely formidable Martial Soul, one proportional to Innate Full Soul Power."

Master was confident inwardly. His deduction definitely was not wrong. Tang San's Martial Soul was certainly famous, one he knew of.

Tang San nodded. "So that's how it is."

At the same time, he admired him inwardly. Master truly had something unique about him.

"Master, I'm willing to become your student," Tang San said sincerely.

Ye Yu was naturally willing as well. With Master's guidance, he would benefit greatly. Although Master's strength was not strong, in a certain aspect, he was also "invincible." Accepting Master's teaching would bring only benefits and no harm.

Master was very happy. "Good. From now on, you may call me teacher."

Master's gaze once again turned to Ye Yu. He still could not understand why there was no Second Martial Soul.

If he had not witnessed Ye Yu's terrifying strength earlier, he would have thought he had misjudged, mistaking Ye Yu's Martial Soul for a Waste Martial Soul. Looking at it now, the mutated Nine Spirit Black Tang was proportional to Innate Full Soul Power. However, why was his physical constitution so strong? It definitely was not because of Nine Spirit Black Tang. Support System Martial Souls could not change one's own body.

"It seems there is still a great deal of knowledge I need to study," Master felt, believing he still needed to understand even more.

Master looked at Tang San and asked, "Xiao San, can you release your other Martial Soul for me to see? If you mind, it's fine if you don't release it."

"I don't mind. I'll release it now."

Although his father had said not to easily reveal his Second Martial Soul, Xiao Yu was his friend, and Master was his teacher, equivalent to a "father," after all, a teacher for a day was a father for life.

Tang San had no misgivings. He raised and opened his left hand, and a deep blue light bloomed as a small hammer appeared.

Seeing this hammer, shock showed in Master's eyes. In his heart, he had known Xiao San's Second Martial Soul was extraordinary, but he had not expected it to actually be...

"Xiao San's surname is Tang... I should have guessed long ago."

Master suppressed the excitement in his heart. "All right, put it away. Remember, in the future, do not use your Second Martial Soul lightly, and even more so, do not attach Soul Rings to it."

Master's words made Tang San even more curious.

"My dad said the same thing. Master, why is that?"

Master was just as curious. "Xiao San, what does your father do?"

"My dad is a blacksmith."

Hearing this, Master was rather surprised. In his heart, he naturally knew it was not as simple as just being a blacksmith.

"It seems Xiao San doesn't know his father's true identity. In that case, I can't tell him the detailed reason now either."

Master said, "Now is not the time to tell you. You only need to know that your father and I ask this of you for your own good."

Tang San nodded and asked no more.

Master said, "All right, I'll take you to register. Tomorrow is the opening ceremony, and classes officially begin the day after tomorrow. After the opening ceremony ends tomorrow, I'll take you to search for suitable Soul Rings. Tonight, I'll start thinking about what kind of Soul Rings are more suitable for you."

Tang San was somewhat excited inwardly. He would soon be able to obtain a Soul Ring, and perhaps the Mysterious Heaven Skill would break through as he stepped into becoming a Soul Master.

Master said seriously, "Although I will help you, absorbing Soul Rings will depend on you yourselves. If they are ten-year or several-dozen-year Soul Rings, you will have no problem absorbing them. However, I require you to have the optimal Soul Ring configuration. Your first Soul Ring must reach a hundred years."

Tang San nodded. "Mm, that's what I think as well. The first Soul Ring must be no lower than a hundred years."

Master continued, "For the first Soul Ring, three hundred years would be best. That way, with my strength, I can deal with it, and it won't be too impossible for you to absorb."

After Master finished speaking, he prepared to take Ye Yu and Tang San to register, but at that moment, Ye Yu said something that made Master freeze on the spot.

"Teacher, can you kill a Thousand-Year Soul Beast?"
