Heading to the Soul Hunting Forest

"Yes, yes!"

The lackeys hurriedly helped Cai Kun up and fled in a sorry state.

At the same time, the other students looked at Ye Yu with utter awe and warned themselves that they must never provoke anyone from Seventh Dormitory again.

Ye Yu and the others began eating, and Wang Sheng worshiped Ye Yu even more.

"Boss, you're seriously amazing. The way they're looking at us now is full of awe. From now on, they'll never dare look down on us work-study students again."

"I said that before I leave this place, I'll make every student in Nuoding feel awe toward Seventh Dormitory."

After Wang Sheng finished being happy, he grew a little worried.

"Boss, the third-year Wang Zhe is his cousin. That guy will definitely go find his cousin. You know about Wang Zhe too—he's our Teacher Wang's son, the strongest person in Nuoding Junior Academy right now, a nineteenth-level Battle Soul Master."

Although Wang Sheng had seen how powerful Ye Yu was, Wang Zhe was at level nineteen. He was not someone Cai Kun and Rong Yao could compare to. He was worried that if Wang Zhe came looking for trouble, Ye Yu would not be his match.

However, Ye Yu did not take it to heart at all. "If they dare come, then I'll make the two of them end up just like Cai Kun."

Wang Sheng said nothing more. If Wang Zhe really came, then even if he had to risk his life, he would help Ye Yu.

At this moment, Rong Yao, who had been sent flying outside the cafeteria doors by a single punch, had a trembling, aching fist and a numb right arm.

He staggered to his feet in a miserable state, deeply shocked. "How is that possible? He didn't release his Martial Soul and didn't use a Soul Skill, yet he actually overpowered me in strength."

Rong Yao was extremely shocked and furious inside, because it was far too humiliating.

He had originally wanted to stand up for his little brother, but he had been punched flying instead.

He did not charge back inside. He had already realized that Ye Yu was far from simple, and even if he went all out, he felt it would be very hard to win.

Rong Yao left to look for his cousin, Wang Zhe.

At the same time, Cai Kun was supported by several lackeys to the Infirmary. After the examination, the doctor's expression turned grave.

Cai Kun's heart instantly lurched. "Doctor, th-there isn't anything seriously wrong with that part of me, right?"

The doctor sighed and said bluntly, "I'll be honest with you. The injury is severe. Even if it stops hurting, that doesn't mean it's fully healed. It will leave a permanent condition."

Cai Kun asked nervously, "What condition?"

The lackey beside him seemed to have already thought of something.

The doctor's words were already very clear. Although Cai Kun was only seven years old, he still understood some things.

At that, Cai Kun's face went blank. He was deeply shaken. The meaning could not have been clearer!

Cai Kun gritted his teeth, his fists clenching tight as anger surged in his heart.

"Damn it! This is all because of that guy!"

Cai Kun hated Ye Yu to the bone.

A lackey reminded him, "Boss Cai, you can't go looking for him again. He's too strong. But I'm sure he won't have easy days ahead. He hit Rong Yao, and Rong Yao will definitely go find Wang Zhe. No matter how strong that new student is, he can't possibly be a match for the nineteenth-level Wang Zhe!"

Cai Kun felt a little better, thinking that Rong Yao would definitely go find Wang Zhe.

Cai Kun recuperated in the Infirmary while the lackeys left.

After leaving, they laughed and discussed it...

"Probably. Looks like we need to find another dorm boss."

"Same here. It was fine before, but ever since he absorbed his Soul Ring, I can't stand it."

After Ye Yu and the others finished eating, they returned to the dormitory. When they arrived, they found Master waiting for them.

Master said, "Xiao Yu, Xiao San, I have something to tell you."

Ye Yu and Tang San nodded, then followed Master into his room.

After closing the door, Master said, "Xiao Yu, I've already found someone to help you hunt a Soul Beast."

Ye Yu nodded. "Thank you, Teacher."

Ye Yu wondered inwardly who it could be. Flender, or Zhao Wuji?

Ye Yu was not worried that Master would fail to find help. After all, Master had friends like Flender.

Master looked at Tang San. "Xiao San, next, let's talk about your future development path."

If Tang San had heard this before attending class, he definitely would not have understood, but after a Martial Soul lesson, he already knew what Master meant.

Martial Souls were divided into two main categories: Beast Martial Souls and Tool Martial Souls. Plant-type Martial Souls were also included among Tool Martial Souls, so Ye Yu and Tang San both had Tool Martial Souls.

However, there were also branches.

"In the class at noon, you should have learned that when a Soul Master first begins, they have to choose a development direction. Xiao Yu goes without saying. His Martial Soul, Nine Spirit Black Tang, is very clear—it follows the support system. As for your Martial Soul, Blue Silver Grass, you have choices. For example, the food system, battle system, Control System, scouting system, and so on."

Tang San chose to trust Master, believing that Master must have already thought of the path most suitable for him.

"Teacher, you are a master who studies Martial Souls. What direction do you think I should develop in?"

Master said bluntly, "Mm, I've already thought it through. Your Blue Silver Grass should develop toward the Control System. That is because Blue Silver Grass consumes very little of your Soul Power. It can be said to be the Martial Soul with the lowest Soul Power consumption, and control requires endurance. Also, Blue Silver Grass can absorb most Soul Rings without rejection occurring. For example, if a Beast Martial Soul wants to absorb a Soul Ring with added poison attributes, rejection will arise. A Martial Soul can also be considered a living entity. If a Beast Martial Soul absorbs a poisonous Soul Ring, then the toxin will also be transferred to the host. Even if the absorption succeeds, the body itself will be poisoned. But Blue Silver Grass is a plant, so it can completely absorb the toxins."

Tang San nodded. "I'll listen to Teacher and choose the Control System. Perhaps it will perfectly bring out the true power of Blue Silver Grass."

Master said, "Go rest. Tomorrow morning, I'll come find you first thing. We'll head to the Soul Hunting Forest to hunt and obtain your first Soul Rings."

Ye Yu and Tang San nodded and left, both of them filled with anticipation.

After they returned to the dorm, Wang Sheng asked curiously, "Brother San, Boss, what did Master call you for?"

Ye Yu said, "Tomorrow, Master is taking us to the Soul Hunting Forest to hunt Soul Beasts."

Wang Sheng was delighted. "Brother San and Boss are going to obtain Soul Rings, and then you'll become Soul Masters. You're both already this strong now, so once you have Soul Rings, I'm sure you'll be even stronger."

When Xiao Wu heard about hunting Soul Beasts, she felt a little uncomfortable inside, but she couldn't let it show.

Wang Sheng said, "I hope Brother San and Boss can each get the most suitable Soul Ring!"

Ye Yu and the others chatted for a while, then went to sleep early.

Early the next morning, Ye Yu and Tang San got up early out of habit and quietly left the dorm.

Master had just gotten up as well, and the three of them set off for the Soul Hunting Forest.

The Soul Hunting Forest was not far. By carriage, they arrived in two hours.

To enter the Soul Hunting Forest, they had to pass through a market. It was filled with all kinds of shops, and cries of hawkers rang out nonstop.

Because the Soul Hunting Forest was state-run, a market had naturally been set up there. Wherever there were Soul Beasts, there was profit. And Soul Masters were a wealthy group, so their money was easy to earn.

Master had prepared everything they needed back in Nuoding City. The goods here were twice as expensive as outside.

As they walked, Ye Yu heard a shout from a stall and looked over curiously.

He saw a middle-aged man pulling noodles while introducing himself. "I'm a rare Food System Soul Master. Do you need to buy my noodles? They have a very decent support effect. Don't miss out."
