Holy Soul Village Awakening Ceremony
Although there were only a dozen or so children present, Su Ling felt as though a million pairs of eyes were staring at him.
He had noticed this strange sensation long ago.
On the platform, Su Yuntao was helping Su Ling awaken his Martial Soul.
As Su Yuntao's Soul Power steadily entered his body, Su Ling felt a warm current flow into his right hand.
Then a gray sphere appeared in Su Ling's hand.
Su Yuntao found this strange sphere rather novel, but did not give it much thought.
It was just a rounded stone.
"A round stone. Uh, it probably doesn't count as a trash Martial Soul. Come test your Soul Power."
Su Yuntao took out a crystal ball and held it before Su Ling.
Su Ling placed his right hand on it.
The crystal ball gave off a faint glow.
"Innate Soul Power... level four?"
Su Yuntao looked at the boy before him with some appreciation.
Not bad, not bad. Even this lousy stone has level-four Soul Power.
"Very good. Having level-four Innate Soul Power is already quite impressive!"
Su Ling sighed helplessly, then put on a smile again.
"Thank you for helping me awaken my Martial Soul, big brother."
Although he only had level-four Soul Power, he was already very fortunate on the Douluo Continent.
Normally, even among a thousand commoners awakening their Martial Souls, there might not be a single one with Soul Power.
"Mm. If you ever want to work for Spirit Hall, you can come find me. I'm at the Nuoding City branch."
Su Yuntao was very satisfied with Su Ling's attitude. He had awakened the Martial Souls of so many children, yet not one had thanked him.
"Tch. Thank you, big bwother~"
Standing behind Su Ling, Tang San could not help making a snide remark. What was this kid putting on an act for?
Su Ling had been on the Douluo Continent for six years. Old Jack had found him and brought him back to Holy Soul Village to raise as his grandson. As he grew older, Su Ling had also discovered that this was the continent from the novel he used to read so often.
The Douluo Continent!
And he was even in the same village as Tang San.
To avoid having Tang San brand him as someone courting death, he could only act like the other village children, running wild all over the place.
He had thought awakening his Martial Soul would be the moment he declared he didn't eat beef. Now, with only level-four Soul Power, he feared he would have to remain a little savage his whole life.
Ding! Congratulations to the host on awakening the Quest Bounty System. Complete daily quests to receive rewards.
What the fuck, there really is a system!
Meanwhile,
Spirit City, Spirit Hall
Bibi Dong stared in shock at the screen of light before her.
"What's going on? There's clearly no trace of anyone else here."
At the same time, a mechanical voice sounded in Bibi Dong's mind.
Welcome, Bibi Dong, to Su Ling's World. Connected users can monitor Su Ling's every move twenty-four hours a day. Each day, one connected user will also be randomly selected for a chance to issue a quest. The issuer can receive triple the rewards.
After hearing this, Bibi Dong immediately understood.
She could now monitor the child appearing on the screen around the clock, and she could even issue him quests and receive three times his rewards!
Moreover, she was not the only connected user. There were others.
She just did not yet know how many.
If there were few enough, she would secretly execute them and funnel all the rewards to herself.
If there were too many, there would be nothing she could do.
System notice: do not let Su Ling discover that you can monitor him, or your system access will be revoked.
At the same time,
The system's voice also sounded in Su Ling's mind.
Do not reveal too much of your strength before the Martial Soul Laws are complete, or you will attract the covetous attention of Douluo Star's Plane Will.
"Hahaha! Keep a low profile and build up strength. You want me to play the pig to eat the tiger? Interesting."
This is the kind of script I like.
Su Ling's loud laughter displeased the other children in the room.
Seriously, Su Ling, where are your manners?
Sure, you've awakened Soul Power and will become a lofty Lord Soul Master, but you can't laugh right in front of us! Where does that leave us?
My delicious system, hurry up and issue your quest!
I can't wait!
"Su Ling, it's wrong to gloat like this. Even if you've awakened Soul Power, you can't treat your friends this way!"
Tang San had never liked Su Ling.
This kid brought a group to the back mountain every day to disrupt his Mysterious Heaven Skill cultivation, and even tried dragging him into competitions to see who could pee the farthest.
But Tang San always refused.
No matter how they provoked him, Tang San would, at most, blush and scold them a little.
Things like, "Su Ling, you big idiot."
Everyone thought Tang San had a pretty good temper; he just did not fit in very well.
Seeing Tang San speak up for them, the others nodded in agreement.
Exactly, exactly. Sure, you have every right to be happy.
But you should consider our feelings too!
"Next."
Tang San walked into the center of the six Awakening Stones, and Su Yuntao repeated the previous steps.
Tang San felt two warm currents flow into his left and right hands respectively. He suppressed the strange sensation in his left hand and raised only his right.
A small blade of grass, blue all over, appeared in Tang San's palm.
"Blue Silver Grass. A trash Martial Soul!"
Su Yuntao shook his head.
At least this village has one person who can cultivate.
With proper training, he should be able to reach Soul Saint cultivation in the future, carrying on Holy Soul Village's name.
Seeing that Su Yuntao was about to leave,
Tang San hurriedly called out to stop him.
"My lord, I haven't tested my Soul Power yet."
Su Yuntao was a little impatient.
"There's no need. I've never seen anyone with a Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul possess Innate Soul Power."
Despite saying that,
Su Yuntao still took out the crystal ball and handed it to Tang San.
Tang San placed his hand on the crystal ball.
In an instant, a dazzling light illuminated the room.
"This is... innate full Soul Power!"
This left Su Yuntao deeply shocked.
Not only did a Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul possess Innate Soul Power, it was level ten!
This was the first in history.
"A pity your Martial Soul is Blue Silver Grass. Otherwise, you would certainly stand at the very pinnacle of the continent one day!"
With that, Su Yuntao walked out of the room.
Although Tang San had innate full Soul Power, paired with a Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul, it was still only a cup of water against a blazing cartload of firewood.
Tang San walked up to Su Ling and patted his shoulder.
"We both have trash Martial Souls, and my Soul Power is higher than yours now. How about you acknowledge me as your big brother?"
Su Ling did not answer, merely moving Tang San's hand away.
"Even if we both have trash Martial Souls, my stone is still stronger than your grass, isn't it?"
Selecting a quest issuer now. Today's quest issuer is Hu Liena.
At that moment, Hu Liena was lounging leisurely on her stomach in bed.
Her two Soft Bone Rabbits were squashed flat.
"Why am I the one on the very first day?"
Although the quest issuer could receive triple the rewards, she would also become the first connected user to reveal her identity.
Since it's come to this, I'll issue a quest first.
"This Tang San looks like a little jerk. Let's have him get beaten up."
Today's quest has been issued: give Tang San a thorough beating. Reward: innate full Soul Power.
Give Tang San a thorough beating?
Seeing this quest, Su Ling felt very uncertain.
Right now, he had no confidence he could give Tang San a thorough beating. Although Tang San was currently malnourished,
He had, after all, practiced the Mysterious Heaven Skill for several years.
"It's actually Hu Liena?"
Just as Bibi Dong was preparing to kill to her heart's content, she saw that today's quest issuer was actually Hu Liena.
Then there was no problem. After all, Hu Liena was her disciple,
And the successor to the position of the next Supreme Pontiff.
Receiving triple rewards to improve her strength was a good thing.
Although Su Ling was somewhat afraid of Tang San, the reward of innate full Soul Power was simply impossible to refuse.
"Let's go outside and fight one-on-one. Whoever wins gets to be the big brother. How about it?"
Su Ling immediately challenged Tang San.
"Sure!"
Tang San did not take Su Ling seriously at all. He refused to believe that, cultivating every day as he did, he could lose to this little savage.
"Lord Soul Master, how did our village do this year?"
Seeing Su Yuntao emerge, Old Jack hurried forward to ask.
Their village had not produced a Soul Master in many years.
"Quite well. Two people awakened Soul Power, and one of them even has innate full Soul Power."
"What!"
Those words made Old Jack's heart tremble.
"A pity his Martial Soul is Blue Silver Grass. Otherwise, your Holy Soul Village really would produce someone whose name would shake the continent."
