Picking Up Fragments on Douluo Continent

It was truly too difficult for ordinary people to become Soul Masters.

Until Tang San.

"Innate Full Soul Power!" Su Yuntao cried out as he stared at the dazzling blue light filling the room.

After his shock, Su Yuntao quickly came back to his senses, his gaze toward Tang San becoming complicated.

Innate Full Soul Power—a genius seen only once in a century—yet his Martial Soul was merely Blue Silver Grass. For a moment, Su Yuntao did not know whether he should console Tang San or congratulate him.

Forget it. Whether it was Innate Full Soul Power or a useless Martial Soul, it was all down to one's own fate.

In any case, this child had awakened Innate Soul Power, so his bonus was already secured.

Should he treat Sisi to dinner then? Or buy her flowers?

"Next." Su Yuntao said wearily.

Lu Feng stepped into the center of the awakening array, feeling somewhat nervous. After all, he had never awakened one of these things in his previous life. He had no experience.

Soul Power surged from Su Yuntao as he activated the array. Gradually, golden light spread through the room.

Lu Feng felt a warm energy flow into his body, stirring up all the Soul Power within him. It was like soaking in a hot spring—his body slowly warmed, and his face gradually flushed.

"Huh? It still can't awaken?"

Su Yuntao continued increasing the flow of Soul Power. He had a feeling that this child might awaken some powerful Martial Soul.

Ten seconds.

Half a minute.

Three minutes.

"Whew..."

Su Yuntao collapsed weakly onto the ground, gasping for breath.

"My Soul Power has already been completely drained. Why hasn't this child awakened a Martial Soul yet?" Su Yuntao stared at Lu Feng as though he were looking at a monster.

"Could it be that you don't have a Martial Soul?" Su Yuntao asked between ragged breaths.

"Uh, Master Su, are you alright? Why don't you eat something first?" Lu Feng pulled out a piece of dried meat from his pocket and handed it to Su Yuntao.

Lu Feng was equally bewildered by the situation before him.

Neither the original novel nor any fanfiction had ever mentioned someone being unable to awaken a Martial Soul.

He had transmigrated into Douluo Continent, only to have no Martial Soul?

He might as well have transmigrated directly into "Miracle Nikki"!

If he could not cultivate a Martial Soul anyway, all that was left was chasing girls.

After finishing the dried meat, Su Yuntao suddenly had an idea. "I have thought of one possibility, but it still needs to be tested."

He placed the blue crystal ball before Lu Feng. "Come, place your hand on it and test your Innate Soul Power."

"Huh? But haven't I still failed to awaken a Martial Soul?" Lu Feng asked in confusion.

Su Yuntao smiled and explained, "There are countless Martial Souls on the continent, but generally speaking, they can be divided into two categories: Tool Martial Souls and Beast Martial Souls. My Lone Wolf is a Beast Martial Soul. Hoes, sickles, and even Blue Silver Grass are all Tool Martial Souls."

"However, there is another extremely rare type of Martial Soul: human body parts. For example, arms, legs, eyes, and so on."

At this point, Su Yuntao's lips curled upward as he confidently declared, "I believe your Martial Soul must be the legendary Body Martial Soul."

Hearing this, Lu Feng looked at Su Yuntao with some surprise.

I didn't expect Brother Tao to actually know his stuff. Huo Yuhao from the second part of Douluo Continent had a Body Martial Soul too, didn't he?

With that thought, Lu Feng gave Su Yuntao an approving look.

"Master Su truly lives up to his reputation..."

However, just as Lu Feng was about to flatter Su Yuntao, several clusters of light suddenly dropped out of the awakening array.

Martial Soul Fragments

Picked up White Martial Soul Lone Wolf Fragment ×1 (1/10)

Picked up Yellow Martial Soul Blue Silver Grass Fragment ×1 (1/10)

Picked up Black Martial Soul Clear Sky Hammer Fragment ×1 (1/10)

"Holy shit, they dropped! They dropped!"

Even though Lu Feng had lived two lives, he could not stop himself from shouting in excitement.

He had seen villagers use Martial Souls before. Uncle Li at the village entrance had a hoe Martial Soul, and he could dig the ground twice as fast as anyone else. Old Jack's Martial Soul was a carrot, and Lu Feng had even eaten one before.

However, he had never picked up Martial Soul Fragments before.

Could it be because those villagers didn't have Soul Power? Lu Feng pondered inwardly.

"What dropped?" Su Yuntao asked in confusion.

"Uh..." Lu Feng immediately came back to his senses.

"Nothing. It's hunter slang. Anyway, it means praising someone."

Lu Feng casually explained a few words, then placed his right hand on the crystal ball.

As Lu Feng poured Soul Power into it, the blue crystal ball gradually lit up. Blue light rapidly spread from the bottom, and in the blink of an eye, it filled about half the crystal ball.

"Level Five Soul Power! It's actually Level Five Soul Power!"

Staring at the brilliant crystal ball, Su Yuntao shouted, "Kid, you have the potential to become a Soul Emperor!"

Su Yuntao could not help being so excited. Although the books recorded that Body Martial Souls were not particularly strong and were even classified as low-grade Martial Souls, they were still a tier above Blue Silver Grass!

Seeing Su Yuntao's excited appearance, Lu Feng could not help curling his lips.

Poisoned praise still counts as praise, right?

At that moment, Su Yuntao grabbed Lu Feng's hand, his eyes shining. "Kid, what's your name? Are you willing to join Spirit Hall?"

As a Spirit Hall deacon, Su Yuntao received five Gold Soul Coins for every child with Soul Power he awakened.

If he recruited someone into Spirit Hall, the reward varied depending on the quality of their Martial Soul and the level of their Innate Soul Power.

A low-grade Martial Soul and Innate Level Five Soul Power.

Su Yuntao silently calculated it in his heart. He could earn so, so many Gold Soul Coins!

"Right!"

Su Yuntao suddenly remembered something and said to Tang San beside him, "And you, kid. What's your name? Are you willing to join Spirit Hall?"

Tang San was still contemplating the relationship between his internal energy and Soul Power, so he paid no attention to Su Yuntao's words.

He answered casually, "My name is Tang San. As for joining Spirit Hall, I'll have to go back and ask my father first."

"Fine." Su Yuntao did not force Tang San after seeing him refuse.

He then turned to Lu Feng, his eyes filled with expectation. "Kid, have you decided?"

Lu Feng thought for a moment and quickly reached a decision.

Lu Feng did not care which faction he joined. Wherever he went, he would still be working for someone else.

Picking up fragments was what truly mattered.

With his Innate Level Five Soul Power aptitude, joining Spirit Hall would probably only mean being trained as an ordinary talent. He would have no chance to go directly to Spirit City and enter the Spirit Hall Academy.

If he interacted with ordinary Soul Masters, he would most likely only pick up yellow fragments, perhaps even white ones.

He might as well follow Tang San first and get the complete Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record!

"Thank you for the invitation, Master Su, but I haven't obtained a Soul Ring yet. I'll join after I officially become a Soul Master." Lu Feng said with a smile.

"When the time comes, I hope Master Su can introduce me. My name is Lu Feng—the Lu from continent, and the Feng from maple leaf."

Su Yuntao frowned slightly upon hearing this. "Is that what you've decided? Fine, then."

Alas... Su Yuntao sighed inwardly. If things went this way, his bonus would be discounted.

Su Yuntao took out two blank Martial Soul certificates from his bag. He quickly filled out one, sealed it with Soul Power, and handed it to Tang San.

When he picked up the other certificate and prepared to write on it, he suddenly froze.

"Lu Feng, what is your Martial Soul?"

Lu Feng thought for a moment before answering, "For my Martial Soul... just write body."

In truth, Su Yuntao had actually guessed correctly.

Lu Feng truly did not have a Martial Soul.

However, he could synthesize Martial Souls by collecting fragments, then equip them as he pleased. Likewise, every Martial Soul required ten fragments to synthesize.

As for why he had no Martial Soul, Lu Feng did not know. He did not even know whether he had transmigrated as a soul or with his body.

Lu Feng only remembered that, in his previous life, he had just finished talking about their dreams with his girlfriend. While she showered in the bathroom, he lay on the bed contemplating the mysteries of the universe.

Then, an Optimus Prime fell from the sky!

When Lu Feng opened his eyes again, he found that he had become a little baby, alone in the forest.

Then an old hunter discovered him and brought him home.

"Lu Feng, resident of Holy Soul Village, Nuoding City. Martial Soul: body. Innate Soul Power: Level Five."

Su Yuntao quickly completed the Martial Soul certificate and stamped it with "Spirit Hall Reserve."

Afterward, Su Yuntao sealed the certificate and handed it to Lu Feng.

"Creak..."

The old wooden door was pushed open, and a faint aroma of meat washed over him. A happy occasion lifted one's spirits. Looking at the pig's head hanging in the little courtyard, Lu Feng felt an unusual sense of fondness.

After entering the bedroom, Lu Feng began studying the Martial Soul Fragments.

White Quality Fragments:

Lone Wolf (1/10)

Sickle (1/10)

Manure Fork (1/10).

Yellow Quality Fragments:

Blue Silver Grass (1/10)

Black Quality Fragments:

Clear Sky Hammer (1/10)

"Just like other types of fragments, Martial Souls require ten identical fragments to synthesize."

"Three fragments, three different qualities..."

Lu Feng raised his right hand, and a cluster of white light appeared in his palm. Within it, he could faintly make out the outline of a wolf's head.

"Although Su Yuntao was never mentioned again later in the original novel, with his aptitude, reaching Soul Elder would already be quite impressive."

The white light gradually faded, and a cluster of yellow light slowly rose.

"Huh? Can I only use one Martial Soul at a time?" Lu Feng frowned slightly as he looked at the pale yellow ball of light in his hand.

In Lu Feng's imagination, he should have the Clear Sky Hammer in his left hand and the Seven Kill Sword in his right. Angel and Sea God could alternate, while Nine Treasures Glazed Tile stood in the middle!

But now...

Lu Feng curled his lips.

Forget it. Why ask for a bicycle when you have nothing?

"In the original novel, Tang San's early journey had been smooth sailing. But during the Soul Master Tournament, even after he consumed the water-and-fire Immortal Herbs, the limitations of his Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul had already become apparent."

"A yellow-quality Martial Soul probably only has the potential to become a Soul King, right?"

"Later, Tang San awakened the Blue Silver Emperor bloodline. His Martial Soul underwent a qualitative transformation, and its quality was not inferior to the Clear Sky Hammer at all."

With a thought from Lu Feng, the light in his palm turned a profound black.

Even though it was only one fragment, Lu Feng could still sense a dense, heavy aura coming from the black light.
