Wish Fulfilled, Hundred-Year Evil Eye

The Sun-Moon Federation government invested considerably in nurturing Soul Masters like them. It could even be said that it spared no effort in supporting these academies and supplying them with resources.

Nearly every intermediate academy cooperated with the Spirit Pagoda and could obtain tickets to enter the Spirit Ascension Platform. Graduates of advanced academies such as the Sun-Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy could also find decent jobs in the Federation.

Although Red Mountain Academy, where Tang Li and the others studied, was only a Primary Academy, the facilities for the Spirit Master Class were quite good. Most of the facilities, including the Meditation Rooms, were fairly complete.

In the morning, they studied all kinds of knowledge just like ordinary students, except they covered more subjects related to Soul Masters.

But in the afternoon, their teacher took them to the Meditation Room and taught them basic Meditation Methods.

After so many years of development, the Federation had integrated the Meditation Methods of many sects and improved them into several techniques with the broadest applicability.

One of the graduation requirements for these Primary Academies was that students had to be able to meditate independently.

The teachers introduced them to the differences between these Meditation Methods, then let the students choose the one that suited them best. Specialized teachers would then be responsible for guiding them.

Students like Tang Li, who already had their own cultivation technique, could apply to their teachers and cultivate on their own without needing guidance.

Tang Wulin had originally wanted to join Tang Li, but their instructor—the homeroom teacher responsible for their Spirit Master Class over the past three years—suggested that Tang Wulin stay behind for guidance. She could tell that Tang Wulin could not meditate as proficiently as Tang Li.

In the end, Tang Wulin accepted the teacher's suggestion, since the book Tang Ziran had given her was one of the basic Meditation Methods developed by the Federation.

Of course, part of the reason was that she did not want to interfere with Tang Li's cultivation.

Thus, under Tang Wulin's reluctant gaze, Tang Li went to another Meditation Room to cultivate by himself.

There were several other students in that Meditation Room whose families had some influence. Most had inherited their parents' excellent Martial Souls and cultivated Meditation Methods their families had selected as the most suitable for them.

Out of courtesy, Tang Li softened his movements, found a spot far away from them, and sat down to cultivate the Mysterious Heaven Skill.

An entire afternoon passed in a flash for him as he immersed himself in cultivation. Before he knew it, school was over.

After Tang Li returned to the classroom and packed up both his and Tang Wulin's things, Tang Wulin finally came back, her face full of exhaustion. Clearly, the afternoon's lessons had not been easy for her.

"Li, are you going to the Spirit Pagoda to buy a Soul Spirit?"

"Yeah. Dad already arranged everything. I'll go find Uncle Lin at the school gate in a little while. Wulin, do you want to come with me?"

At the mention of the Spirit Pagoda, a light suddenly flashed in Tang Wulin's large, weary eyes. But when she remembered that she had yet to memorize the pathways of her Meditation Method, she shook her head and declined Tang Li's offer.

"I'll pass. I still haven't fully memorized the meridian diagram for the Meditation Method. I'll go home and reinforce it. Once I break through Level 10, I'll have a chance to visit the Spirit Pagoda too."

As she spoke, Tang Wulin took both backpacks from Tang Li. She slung one over her back, carried the other in her left hand, and grabbed Tang Li with her right, hurrying toward the school gate.

"Come on, come on. Don't make Uncle Lin wait too long."

Outside Red Mountain Academy stood a man who looked to be around thirty. His short hair stood up like steel needles, and his explosive muscles stretched his short-sleeved shirt tight. He was tall and burly, like a giant ape.

His dark yellow eyes were as sharp as an eagle's, accurately picking Tang Wulin and Tang Li out from the crowd.

"Little Tang Li! Little Wulin! Over here!"

Uncle Lin's booming voice was like a loudspeaker, instantly drawing the siblings' attention.

They had met Uncle Lin before and remembered his incredibly muscular build well. After confirming his identity, they quickly pushed through the crowd and came before him.

"Hello, Uncle Lin!"

"Hehe, little ones, let's go. I'll take you to the Spirit Pagoda to broaden your horizons."

The burly man named Lin Ye enthusiastically took the siblings' hands and led them toward a less crowded area. The parents waiting nearby also made way upon seeing such an imposing tough guy.

"Uncle Lin, I'm not going to the Spirit Pagoda. I still need to go back and keep studying the Meditation Method."

"That works too. Uncle will bring you something tasty next time. Remember to stay safe on the way home!"

Lin Ye waved to Wulin, then led Tang Li away in another direction.

As for why he was not worried about Tang Wulin's safety, it was naturally because public security in Hongshan District, Aolai City, was quite good. If a promising Soul Master like Tang Wulin ran into trouble, the authorities would definitely investigate it thoroughly.

Anyone in their right mind would not lay a hand on children like them.

Meanwhile, Tang Li rode a Soul Guidance Car with Lin Ye toward the Spirit Pagoda, feeling as though he had forgotten something. After thinking for a long time, he finally remembered—today seemed to be the day Tang Wulin met Na'er!

And he remembered that a few thugs seemed to attack Wulin!

Damn it. He should have taken Lin Ye to escort Wulin home first before coming to the Spirit Pagoda.

But it was already too late. He could only hope that Tang Wulin, who had awakened the Clear Sky Hammer, could protect herself and avoid getting hurt.

Seeing Tang Li sit quietly beside him without speaking, his brows slightly furrowed as if something weighed on his mind, Lin Ye smiled and teased him.

"Little Tang Li, why aren't you asking Uncle what Soul Tool he commissioned from your dad this time? I remember you being the kid who loved asking questions about everything."

"Uncle Lin, I'm just curious what kind of Soul Spirit Dad and you found for me."

Tang Li did not mention Tang Wulin. He was not sure whether his appearance would cause any changes. Perhaps Tang Wulin would not meet Na'er this time?

Tang Li tried to comfort himself with that thought. There was nothing he could do no matter how worried he was now. At worst, he could avenge Wulin when he got back!

"Hahaha! I originally wanted to give you a surprise, but since you've already asked, Uncle Lin will tell you. Your dad had me use internal channels to get you something rare. You know Evil Eyes, right? The race ranked second among the Ten Great Beast Kings ten thousand years ago was an Evil Eye."

At that, Lin Ye immediately became animated, clearly immensely satisfied with what he had helped Tang Ziran accomplish this time.

An Evil Eye? His wish had come true.

"This hundred-year Evil Eye would probably be worth nearly ten million Federation Coins on the open market. But fusing with this thing requires very high spiritual power. I'll take you to test your spiritual power later. If it's below 30 points, I have a hundred-year Iron-Backed Earth Dragon prepared. It was originally meant for your sister. If the Evil Eye doesn't work, we'll give that to you first, and I'll look for something else later."

"Don't worry, Uncle Lin. I can definitely do it."

Tang Li was still very confident when it came to spiritual power. After all, he had received the 'blessing' of Tang San, the Sea God!
