Zhang San held out his right hand, and a hoe appeared in it.
"A hoe, a tool martial soul. No soul power."
Su Yuntao shook his head and continued:
"Next."
The next few children all awakened trash martial souls such as farming tools and poultry, with no soul power.
Su Yuntao looked increasingly disappointed.
Although Holy Soul Village had the word "holy" in its name, no one had awakened a martial soul there in many years.
"Next, Tang San."
Tang San took a deep breath and stepped into the awakening formation.
The six black stones lit up simultaneously, and a beam of light enveloped him.
Tang San closed his eyes and began sensing the power within his body.
A moment later, Tang San held out his right hand, and a stalk of Blue Silver Grass appeared in it.
"Blue Silver Grass?" Su Yuntao frowned. "Another trash martial soul."
"All right, next."
"Sir, let me test my soul power!" Tang San insisted stubbornly.
Hearing this, Su Yuntao took out the soul power testing crystal and had Tang San place his hand on it.
The next second, the crystal erupted with dazzling light.
"Innate full soul power!" Su Yuntao was so excited that his voice trembled.
Then he said helplessly, "To think it's innate full soul power! What a shame it's a trash martial soul like Blue Silver Grass!"
Standing in the corner, Chen Mo watched the scene and sneered inwardly.
Blue Silver Grass, innate full soul power-exactly like the original.
Unfortunately, your Clear Sky Hammer won't be awakening today.
Before coming here, Chen Mo had used the energy within his body to secretly interfere with Tang San's martial soul awakening.
He had suppressed the Clear Sky Hammer within Tang San, ensuring that he would awaken only Blue Silver Grass today.
Although this suppression would not prevent Tang San from awakening the Clear Sky Hammer in the future, at least for now, Tang San had only Blue Silver Grass.
"Next, Chen Mo."
Chen Mo took a deep breath and stepped into the awakening formation.
The six black stones lit up simultaneously, and a gentle light enveloped him.
Chen Mo closed his eyes and began sensing the power within his body.
Suddenly, Chen Mo felt something stirring in his dantian.
Chen Mo held out his right hand, and a seed appeared.
A seed radiating seven-colored light was slowly sprouting within his dantian.
The seed broke out of its shell and grew into a small sapling.
The sapling grew at lightning speed, its branches and leaves flourishing, its canopy blotting out the sky and sun, its roots reaching deep into the earth.
A vast surge of vitality poured out of the sapling and flowed throughout Chen Mo's body.
At the same time, a tiny portion of life energy spilled out, causing Blue Silver Grass to break straight through the stone slab Chen Mo stood on and carpet the area around him.
"What is this?!" Su Yuntao exclaimed.
Chen Mo opened his eyes and looked at his right hand.
A miniature sapling slowly rotated there, emitting a soft green glow.
"What martial soul is this?" Su Yuntao's eyes widened. "A tree? A plant-type martial soul? I've never seen a martial soul like this..."
He hurriedly took out the soul power testing crystal. "Here, put your hand on it. Let's see if you have any soul power."
Chen Mo placed his hand on the crystal.
He deliberately suppressed his soul power, releasing only rank ten.
The next second, the crystal erupted with dazzling light.
"Innate full soul power!" Su Yuntao was so excited that his voice trembled. "Another one with innate full soul power!"
Holy Soul Village alone had actually produced two geniuses with innate full soul power!
Chen Mo looked at the sapling in his palm, the corners of his lips lifting slightly.
Divine Tree of Creation.
That was the name the martial soul had told Chen Mo.
And Chen Mo's actual soul power was rank twenty.
Just then, a mechanical voice sounded in his mind.
[Ding! Host's martial soul awakening detected. Check-in System activated!] [Ding! Host's innate full soul power detected. Bond System activated!] [Ding! Host's transmigrator identity detected. Diary Fabrication System activated!]
Joy surged through Chen Mo's heart. His golden finger had finally arrived!
And three had arrived at once!
[Check-in System: check in at special locations to obtain rewards.] [Bond System: establish bonds with female characters to obtain attribute points and skills.] [Diary Fabrication System: write diary entries to obtain rewards. Diary copies will automatically be distributed to the female characters of the Douluo Continent.]
Chen Mo quickly skimmed the descriptions of the three systems, his eyes growing brighter and brighter.
The Check-in System, to intercept opportunities.
The Bond System, to increase his strength.
The Diary Fabrication System, to reveal spoilers of the future and make the female characters throw themselves at him.
Together, these three systems were simply invincible!
[Ding! Beginner gift pack issued. Host, please claim it.] [Obtained: free attribute points ×10, physique +5, mental power +5, wood affinity +10.] [Obtained: diary ×1 (can be written in through thought).]
Chen Mo immediately put all ten free attribute points into soul power.
Soul power: rank 20 → rank 25!
Innate full soul power at rank twenty, plus ten attribute points, had taken him straight to rank twenty-five!
Chen Mo could feel the soul power within his body soaring, while his Divine Tree of Creation martial soul was also undergoing subtle changes.
"Chen Mo, are you all right?" Seeing Chen Mo standing there in a daze, Su Yuntao was a little worried.
"I'm fine." Chen Mo came back to his senses and smiled. "Thank you, Sir Su Yuntao."
"No need to thank me, no need." Su Yuntao excitedly clasped Chen Mo's hand. "Child, you're a genius! A true genius! Join Spirit Hall. His Holiness the Pope will definitely take you as his personal disciple!"
Chen Mo smiled without agreeing immediately.
Join Spirit Hall?
That won't do.
He still had his own plans.
"Sir Su Yuntao, I need to go home and discuss it with my adoptive father," Chen Mo said tactfully.
"Yes, yes, of course, of course." Su Yuntao nodded repeatedly. "Go home and discuss it properly with your adoptive father. Come find me anytime once you've made your decision!"
Chen Mo nodded, then turned and left the Spirit Hall Branch.
Tang San followed behind him, his gaze complicated.
"Brother, your martial soul is really amazing," Tang San said quietly.
"It's all right," Chen Mo said indifferently. "Your Blue Silver Grass isn't bad either. Although it's a trash martial soul, with innate full soul power, you might still have a future."
Tang San lowered his head without speaking.
Chen Mo glanced at him and sneered inwardly.
Tang San, from today onward, your opportunities, your women, everything you have belongs to me.
After returning home, Tang San and Chen Mo told Tang Hao about their martial soul awakenings.
Except the martial soul's name was changed to Green Wood Tree, and the innate rank-twenty soul power was changed to rank ten!
When Tang Hao heard that Tang San's martial soul was Blue Silver Grass, he simply waved his hand.
But when he heard about Chen Mo's martial soul, "Green Wood Tree," and his "innate full soul power," a gleam flashed through his murky eyes.
"So it really is a plant-type martial soul? Can it stimulate plant growth?" Tang Hao asked urgently.
Something stirred in Chen Mo's heart. Here it comes.
He knew why Tang Hao was asking this.
"I think it should be possible."
Chen Mo pretended to hesitate for a moment before speaking.
"I feel that my martial soul's ability can make plants grow rapidly, but I don't know exactly how fast."
