The Martial Soul Is Currency War

"So, even time travel doesn't follow basic physics anymore? I was just at home playing a video game, and an accident managed to fling me across worlds."

A youth who looked around fourteen years old sat on a tree branch, his legs dangling and swaying gently.

He looked down at the star badge in his hand, his eyes full of complexity and helplessness.

The youth was named Xu Feng. Fourteen years ago, he was still an ordinary person huddled on his own sofa, playing Currency War.

As a result, he was hit by a truck and transmigrated. Mind you, his home was on the thirteenth floor, yet that truck had somehow flown right up.

The identity he transmigrated into was the Second Prince of the Sun Moon Empire, but his martial soul was neither the empire's traditional sun nor the Purple Desolate Extinctions Heaven Dragon.

Therefore, whether it was his father sitting on that throne or his own elder brother, neither paid him any mind.

Long after he was early on enfeoffed as the Prince of Qin, they never paid him any attention again.

As for his martial soul, it was none other than Currency War.

Now he was a Five-Ring Soul King who could select five characters from the card pool to summon.

If the five characters happened to share the same bond, they would gain bonus effects.

However, this martial soul was a bit too random; at the start of every battle, it would randomly refresh five characters.

Only by reaching three stars could he switch from controlling puppets to operating his true body.

A whole eight years! In order to grind out a three-star character, he joined the army at age eight and fought in wars for a full six years.

Up until now, he had only managed to roll two three-stars.

One was the cute and charming March 7th, and the other was our General Yaoguang.

Just as he was complaining about how terrible his luck actually was, a girl's voice drifted up from beneath the tree.

"Your Highness Prince of Qin, why have you climbed up the tree again?" The girl's sweet voice carried a hint of helplessness.

Hearing this voice, Xu Feng flipped down neatly from the tree with clean and agile movements.

After landing, he brushed a few fallen leaves from his robes and raised his eyes to look at the girl before him.

The girl had long blonde hair, delicate facial features, and her brows and eyes carried the youthful bashfulness and cuteness unique to a maiden.

What made it impossible to pull one's gaze away, however, was her exceptionally well-developed figure, completely defying the scale expected at her age.

Her curves were graceful, her waist slender, and every single inch radiated a fatal allure.

Her attire was even more filled with temptation—a meticulously fitted black-and-white maid outfit that displayed the advantages of her figure to the absolute fullest.

The hem of the skirt was short to just the right degree, barely guarding her absolute territory, while her slender, straight legs were encased in white silk stockings, paired with little black leather shoes that were a true feast for the eyes.

The girl was named Jiang Nannan. According to the original trajectory, she should have appeared at Shrek Academy.

Yet now, she wore this maid outfit, stood within his Prince of Qin's Estate, and served as his personal maid.

As for why things turned out this way, it went back to events from two years ago.

At that time, the Sun Moon Empire and the Douling Empire went to war, and Xu Feng led the Mysterious Armored Army on a continuous rampage of destruction, beating the Douling Empire into a steady retreat.

Had it not been for that senile old emperor agreeing to the enemy's plea for peace at the critical moment, he would have long since led the Mysterious Armored Army to completely wipe the Douling Empire out of existence.

As the price of that peace, the Douling Empire ceded a vast expanse of territory, and Jiang Nannan's hometown happened to lie within the ceded region.

Later on, once the Prince of Qin's Estate was completed, Xu Feng simply could not stand the entire estate being filled uniformly with men, lacking even a single pleasing person to look at.

He wanted to find a few maids, but those who came to apply were all noble misses, every single one of them practically writing the words "climbing up to high status" across their faces.

Xu Feng could not bear those people at all, so he decided to head out for a stroll, where he happened to run into Jiang Nannan as she sought medical help everywhere.

At that time, she was in tattered clothes and haggard of face, yet it still failed to conceal her innate beauty.

She knelt at the entrance of a medical clinic, bitterly begging the physician to save her gravely ill mother, but no one paid her any mind.

Xu Feng stepped in to save her mother, and having no way to repay the debt, Jiang Nannan voluntarily offered to come to the Prince of Qin's Estate as a maid to repay the kindness of saving her life.

Xu Feng looked Jiang Nannan up and down closely, unable to hold back a smug feeling in his heart.

My aesthetic is truly exceptional. Just look at this outfit, how pleasing to the eye it is.

This maid outfit was something he had specially designed himself. From the style and color scheme to the lace edges and skirt length, every single detail had been carefully considered.

Stared at so intently by him, Jiang Nannan's cheeks instantly flushed red, staining even the tips of her ears pink.

She lowered her head, her mind unable to stop running wild with chaotic thoughts.

His Highness the Prince of Qin is looking at me like this... could it be that he finally wants me...? Well, should I agree, or should I agree...

Obviously, however, Jiang Nannan was overthinking it. Although Xu Feng genuinely desired her in his heart and knew that on the Douro Continent, almost everyone matured early in general,

as a transmigrator, the education he received in his past life made it impossible for him to make a move.

"Nannan, is something the matter?" Xu Feng knew that whatever could prompt Jiang Nannan to make a trip over certainly wouldn't be simple.

After all, who in the entire Prince of Qin's Estate didn't know that Jiang Nannan was only a maid in name—offending Jiang Nannan was equivalent to offending him.

"Your Highness, the emperor just sent someone to pass down an imperial decree, hoping that Your Highness can join the Royal Soul Guidance Academy and secure the championship at the upcoming Soul Master Tournament." Jiang Nannan repeated the eunuch's words.

"The Soul Master Tournament..." Xu Feng frowned. To be honest, he had never understood what people on the Douro Continent were actually thinking.

Now that the situation among the three great empires was already this tense, they still had the leisure to hold a Soul Master Tournament.

"Alright, Nannan, make a trip to the palace and tell Your Majesty that I will go."

Xu Feng had zero desire to head into the palace just to receive cold glares from the emperor.

After all, that good elder brother of his had suffered an assassination attempt in his early years, leaving him permanently disabled and stripping him of his reproductive capabilities.

The emperor and empress had pinned all their hopes of holding a grandchild entirely on him.

Furthermore, his persistent failure to make a move on Jiang Nannan had incurred the displeasure of those two elders, so returning to the palace always invited cold stares.

"Understood, Your Highness." Jiang Nannan immediately withdrew from the back garden to complete the task His Highness had assigned her.
