Old Jack was obviously very patient with Tang San. In his heart, the most sensible child in the village was Tang San in front of him. It was hard to imagine how such a father could have such a well-behaved son.
"Great Spirit Master is the title of Spirit Master rank. Spirit Master is the most noble profession in our entire Douluo Continent. They can be powerful fighters or have excellent auxiliary abilities. But no matter what kind of Spirit Master, the rank They're all sorted by the same title."
"Soul masters have their own martial soul power. According to the strength of their martial soul power, they are divided into ten titles. Each title is further divided into ten levels. The first entry is called soul master, as long as the martial soul awakens, Everyone is a soul master. If you can cultivate your martial soul, when your soul power reaches the eleventh level, you will enter the next title, which is the soul master. And the great soul master is the third in the entire title sequence. If you have reached the realm of a great soul master, you are already a fairly powerful soul master. The ten titles in general are like this."
"Soul Master, Soul Master, Great Soul Master, Soul Venerable, Soul Sect, Soul King, Soul Emperor, Soul Sage, Soul Douluo and Titled Douluo. This is where the name of our Douluo Continent comes from. According to legend, Title Douluo who has reached level 90 or above can get a title for themselves, they are simply invincible existences!"
There was a brilliance of pride in his eyes, "Our Holy Soul Village had an eighth-class title a hundred years ago. It is extremely rare in the entire Notting City, and even the entire Fasno Province."
Tang Hao on the side pouted, "Old Jack, that's just a legend."
As if being touched by the reverse scale, Old Jack was furious, "What is a legend, and the legend also comes from the truth. Tang Hao, you have been here for six years, and you should understand the status of the Soul Saint in our hearts. Let me hear you insulting Lord Soul Saint again, and I will expel you from the village. If it wasn't for the sake of the mistress, do you think I would like to come to your doghouse?"
Tang Hao didn't get angry, he still tapped the farm implement in his hand, as if he didn't hear Jack's words.
Jack glared at him fiercely, and then said to Tang San: "In the future, don't be as decadent as your father, alright, I'll go first, I'll pick you up in three days."
After speaking, Old Jack angrily left the blacksmith shop.
"Dad." Tang San called out.
"Huh?" Tang Hao glanced at him coldly, seeing the chill in his father's eyes, Tang San had to swallow what he wanted to say. With his head down, he went back to his own room to continue struggling with the 10,000 hits.
When night fell, and after dinner, Tang Hao wiped his mouth and walked outside habitually. For him, it was a routine to go out for a drink. Drink the worst ale.
"Dad. Wait a minute." Before Tang San could clean up the dishes, he stopped Tang Hao first.
"What?" Tang Hao glared at him impatiently, even though Tang Hao had never hit Tang San, but for some reason, Tang Sansheng was a little afraid of this father. For him, who has lived in two lives, he can't change this feeling.
"The ten thousand strokes, I've finished forging." Tang San said.
"Oh?" The light in Tang Hao's eyes seemed to be a little brighter, "Show it to me."
"Okay." Tang San hurried back to his room, and soon, he ran out holding an iron block.
The whole body of the iron block is black, and although the shape is irregular, it seems that every section is extremely splendid, and the black light is looming. The whole iron lump was about the size of one of the four original iron lumps, and Tang San didn't find it difficult to carry the Xuan Tiangong while holding it.
Tang Hao grabbed the jet-black iron block in his hand, put it in front of his eyes and looked carefully, "Do you understand what I said now?"
Tang San nodded, "Hundreds of refinements are made into steel. No matter how poor the quality of the metal, after continuous forging and purification, it will become high-quality. Dad, are you trying to tell me this?"
Tang Hao found that his son seemed to surprise him a lot these days, and returned the iron block to him, "Then go ahead. When you forge it into the size of a fist, show it to me." , he turned around and walked out of the house.
According to what he originally said, he could teach Tang San to forge by forging that iron block in 10,000 strokes, but now he seemed to have broken his promise. But Tang San didn't care about that, he just thought about what Tang Hao said.
"Fist size?" Can such a big iron block really be forged to the size of a fist? Although it was only a quarter of the original volume, Tang San knew very well that with the continuous forging, the density of the iron blocks became larger and larger, and it became more difficult to reduce the volume. If you want to forge it to the size of a fist, it is definitely not something that can be done with 10,000 taps.
Hundreds of refining become steel, so what is ten thousand refining? A flash of light flashed in Tang San's eyes, his feet made a slight mistake, and his body nimbly burrowed into his room. Soon, the clanging sound of percussion resounded in the blacksmith shop again.
Three days passed quickly, and Tang San would still go to the top of the mountain every morning to do his regular homework. After returning home, in addition to cooking, it was forging. It's comparable to that piece of pig iron. The beat rate is increasing every day. Xuan Tian Gong helped him recover his physical strength quickly and was able to maintain the continuous forging process.
"Little San, Grandpa is here to pick you up." Old Jack arrived at the blacksmith shop on time, perhaps because he was bored with Tang Hao, this time he didn't even go in, just called Tang San outside.
Tang San glanced at his father who had just eaten breakfast. Tang Hao said coldly: "Go. Don't delay cooking at noon."
Tang San agreed and walked out of the blacksmith shop.
Under the leadership of Old Jack, Tang San followed him to the Spirit Hall in the center of the village. Of course, the so-called Spirit Hall was just a bigger wooden house.
Because everyone has a martial spirit, every year there are children who awaken their martial spirit. Therefore, in any place in Douluo Continent, you can see the figure of Spirit Hall. Of course, these are just divisions. The levels are different.
There are a total of eight children who have awakened their spirits in the Holy Spirit Village this year, and Tang San is the last one to come under the leadership of Old Jack.
The children in the village didn't think highly of Tang San, and it was not only among the nobles that they disliked the poor and loved the rich, but among the commoners, it was even more obvious. And Tang San himself is a man of two generations, and his actual age is already over thirty, so naturally he doesn't want to deal with these children. For him, it is better to use extra time for cultivation. Therefore, he has no childhood playmates.
In addition to the village chief Jack and the eight children who were here, there was a young man in the Hall of Souls. He was dressed in a white outfit, with a black cloak behind him, and a fist-sized soul character in the center of his chest. This is the standard dress for the staff directly under the Spirit Hall.
On the left chest, there is a badge engraved with a long sword, and a total of three long swords are interlaced on the badge. People like Jack who are very familiar with spirit masters know that the number of three handles represents the third-class title of the spirit master, the great spirit master, while the long sword represents that the deacon from the Spirit Hall is a battle spirit. division.
"Hello, respected Master of Battle Spirit, I'm going to trouble you this time." Old Jack respectfully saluted the young man.
The young man's eyebrows showed a hint of pride, and he bowed slightly, not too salty or not, as a courtesy, "I don't have much time, let's start now."
Old Jack said: "Okay. Children, this is the spirit master from Notting City. Next, he will lead you to open your own spirit. You must cooperate with the master to awaken the spirit. Grandpa is looking forward to it. There are people among you who can become soul masters."
The young man said impatiently, "Okay, you said the same thing last year. Is it really that easy to become a soul master? I've already walked through six villages, and I don't have anyone with soul power. There is no suitable one. Martial soul."
There was a hint of sadness in Old Jack's eyes, he sighed, and said, "Yeah! Only the inheritors of the major sects are the easiest to become soul masters. It's too difficult for us ordinary people." Shaking his head, he walked out. Wuhun Temple.
The young man's eyes fell on the eight children in front of him. As the patrol deacon of the Spirit Hall, helping ordinary people to awaken their spirits is a must for him. He has long been accustomed to it, "Children, stand in a row." To these children , his attitude is much gentler.
The eight children stood still in front of the young man, with Tang San standing on the far left. Compared with children of the same age, his stature is thinner.
The young man smiled and said, "My name is Su Yuntao, a twenty-sixth-level great soul master, and I am your leader. Now, I will awaken your martial souls one by one. Remember, no matter what happens, don't be afraid."
As he spoke, Su Yuntao opened his package on the table beside him, and took out two things from it, six black round stones and a shiny blue crystal ball.
Su Yuntao placed six black stones in a hexagon on the ground, and then motioned for the first child on the right to stand in it.
"Don't be afraid, close your eyes and feel it carefully." As he spoke, Su Yuntao's eyes suddenly lit up, and under the horrified eyes of the children, he snorted, "Lone wolf, possessed."
A faint azure light first released from the center of his eyebrows, followed the position of the eyebrows all the way up, and entered the bun.
Su Yuntao's hair was originally black, but when the blue light was injected, it instantly turned gray, and quickly grew longer. The hair of the same color appeared on his bare hands. At the same time, his body also seemed Much bigger than before. The whole body is full of muscles.
The specific clothing of Wuhundian is very elastic, and it did not burst due to his larger size. Su Yuntao's eyes had turned a faint green, and the sharp claws protruding from the ten fingers of both hands flashed a faint cold light. Two halos lit up from under his feet, constantly hovering from under his feet to the top of his head. One of them is white and the other is yellow. Extra weird.
The one who was called out by him in the black stone was a boy. Seeing the changes in Su Yuntao's body, he suddenly exclaimed, "Ah—" and was about to run away.
The green light in Su Yuntao's eyes was really scary, and he grabbed the child and said, "Don't move. Don't be afraid, this is my martial spirit, Lone Wolf. If any of you can become a spirit master in the future, you will also use it. the same ability."
The only one who wasn't too scared was Tang San, but when Su Yuntao changed, he immediately exercised his whole body.
Compared with surprise, Tang San was more curious. Gray hair and green eyes appeared on his body. These are really the characteristics of a wolf. Could it be that after the spirit is possessed, people become wolves? No, no, it should have the ability of a wolf. Then, the profession of soul master should be to make better use of the abilities of martial souls.
For the first time, Tang San discovered that he was interested in the profession of spirit master, and now he couldn't wait to know what his spirit was.
Su Yuntao's hands quickly shot out, and six faint green lights were injected into the six black stones on the ground. Immediately, a layer of golden brilliance was released from the six stones, forming a pale golden mask. Cover the child from before.
I don't know why, as soon as the child who was still crying was enveloped by the pale golden light, he immediately calmed down and stood there sluggishly.
Golden light spots floated out from the black stones on the ground, and then entered the boy's body.
The boy's body began to tremble slightly, and he wanted to scream but couldn't.
"Stretch out your right hand." Su Yuntao's green eyes stared at the boy and commanded majestically.
The boy subconsciously stretched out his right hand, and all the light spots rushed out, and in an instant, a sickle appeared in his palm.
It seems that the sickle is not an illusion of light and shadow, but a real existence.
Su Yuntao frowned, "It's a weapon spirit. Can a sickle be used as a weapon? It should be reluctant."
The golden light gradually subsided, and the boy looked at the small sickle in his hand in surprise, feeling a little overwhelmed.
Su Yuntao said: "Your martial spirit is a sickle, a weapon spirit. Come, let me test if you have soul power. If you have soul power, even a weapon spirit can practice as a battle spirit master. After all, The sickle also has a certain attack power."
"Big, Master, what should I do?" the boy asked timidly.
Su Yuntao said indifferently: "Use your mind to take back your martial soul. When you want to use it in the future, you will also use your mind to call it out."
The boy tried for a long time before retracting the sickle in his hand. Su Yuntao handed the blue crystal ball in front of him and motioned him to put his right hand on it.
The boy's immature hands and Su Yuntao's wolf claws were on the upper and lower positions of the crystal ball, which looked extremely contrasting.
After a while, Su Yuntao said somewhat disappointedly: "No soul power. You can't become a soul master. Go to the side first."
The same scene continued, and five children's spirits were awakened successively. Their spirits were farm implements such as hoes and sickles. Not even a single beast spirit appeared. Tao judged as 'none'.
It was the seventh child's turn, the last one in front of Tang San.
Su Yuntao seemed to be a little tired from continuing to use the wedding, but he was still ready to help these eight children complete the awakening process.
The golden light spots gathered, and this time, it was finally no longer a farm tool, and there was a change. A light blue grass appeared in the girl's palm, fluttering gently.
Tang San vaguely felt that he seemed to have seen this blue grass before. Soon, he remembered that this kind of grass is called blue silver grass. It can be seen everywhere in the village. It is as common as the grass in his original world. It has no other function except that its vitality is relatively tenacious. It's just that he didn't recognize it at a glance because of the pale golden mask on the outside of the girl.
Although it is not a farming tool, the disappointment in Su Yuntao's eyes is even more obvious, "It is a waste martial arts. There is no attack power, no defense power, and no auxiliary abilities. The blue silver grass is also the standard form of a waste martial arts." , he handed the blue crystal ball to the girl according to the procedure, as he expected, still no soul power appeared.
Finally it was Tang San's turn, without Su Yuntao saying, he had stepped forward and stood in the center of the six black stones.
With the infusion of Su Yuntao's six-path soul power, the pale golden light lit up again.
Warmth, this is Tang San's first feeling, the whole person seems to be wrapped in a warm world, indescribably comfortable. It is no wonder that the emotions of those children who were wrapped in this golden light stabilized.
The warm aura penetrated into the body, Tang San clearly felt that his Xuan Tian Gong internal strength seemed to fluctuate slightly, and then, under the pulling of the warm energy, something in the body seemed to shatter, and all the warm aura disappeared. Instantly flocked to his palm.
Su Yuntao's eyes suddenly lit up, because in the golden mask, this time there were even more golden light spots than all the previous children combined. He vaguely felt that a rather powerful martial spirit was about to appear. Excited beyond words.
For those Martial Spirit Hall deacons who are responsible for the awakening of ordinary people's Martial Spirit, if they can awaken a child with extraordinary potential and then pull him into the Martial Spirit Hall, they can get a lot of evaluation benefits, which is very helpful for promotion. will be greatly beneficial.
However, Su Yuntao was soon disappointed.
Tang San raised his right hand subconsciously, what he saw was blue. This kind of blue has appeared for the second time in the Spirit Hall in this village today.
Blue Silver Grass, the same Blue Silver Grass as the girl before. There is a standard for waste spirits.
Su Yuntao said helplessly: "It's another waste of martial arts. It seems that the Holy Spirit Village is wasting time this time. Okay, children, you can leave." A large number of golden light spots appeared before, originally It brought him great hope, but in the end it turned out to be only blue silver grass. The feeling of the gap made Su Yuntao a little unhappy.
"Uncle, you haven't tested my spirit power yet." Tang San hurriedly reminded him when Su Yuntao was about to put away the blue crystal ball.
Su Yuntao said without turning his head: "No need to try. I haven't seen anyone with a spirit power like Blue Silver Grass."
"Let me try, uncle." Tang San insisted. The warmth brought by the golden light brought a very strange feeling to his body, and the opened door made him feel that his Xuan Tian Gong seemed to have undergone subtle changes. At the same time, he also wanted to know what was the difference between his inner strength and the martial spirit of this world.
Su Yuntao was stunned for a moment, then turned around and met Tang San's calm and somewhat firm gaze. I thought to myself, this child seems to be a little different.
"Okay." It won't waste too much time trying out soul power. While speaking, he handed the blue crystal ball to Tang San.
According to the method Su Yuntao had taught before, Tang San controlled and retracted his Blue Silver Grass into his body. He found that it wasn't difficult, as long as he recovered his power as he controlled Xuan Tian Gong, he could do it. At the same time, he also discovered that when the Blue Silver Grass appeared, it seemed that his Xuantian Art was also pouring out, as if the blue grass was condensed by Xuantian Art.
As soon as he put his palm on the blue crystal ball, Tang San's body trembled violently. He was surprised to find that the beautiful looking blue crystal ball had a huge suction force, as if his inner strength had found a vent. Generally surging out. He wanted to break free, but he couldn't escape the strong suction.
Also surprised was Su Yuntao. Just when he thought that the last soul power test in the Holy Soul Village was just a situation, suddenly, the blue crystal ball in his hand lit up, and the dazzling blue light spread from the beginning. , In the blink of an eye, this crystal ball shone like a dazzling gem. The faint blue halo is exposed, which is indescribably moving.
According to the traditional test, as long as the crystal ball shows a little sense, even a trace of light, it proves that the tested person has soul power, and there is only one explanation for the dazzling light shining in the blue crystal ball.
"My God, it turns out to be innately full of soul power." Qing Guang released it from Su Yuntao again, and the crystal ball bounced Tang San's palm away. At this time, his eyes on the boy in front of him were completely different. As if looking at a monster.
Tang San naturally also noticed that his test was different from the other children, and asked doubtfully, "Uncle, what is innate full spirit power?"
Su Yuntao looked at him dully, and explained subconsciously: "When everyone awakens their martial spirit, in addition to the shape of the martial spirit that determines whether it is powerful, the amount of spirit power is also crucial. Most people in martial arts When the soul is awakened, there is no soul power, just like these children before. They are destined to never become soul masters in their lifetimes. As long as there is soul power, even if there is only a little bit, they can cultivate through meditation. At that time, the amount of soul power is very important, which determines the starting level of the soul master’s cultivation. The higher the innate soul power, the faster the acquired cultivation speed. Full soul power is the highest soul power that can be achieved innately when the martial soul is awakened."
"The highest soul power?" Tang San looked at Su Yuntao, his mind spinning, he didn't know what his soul power was, but what was certain was that the blue crystal ball in charge of testing absorbed his own mysterious power. Could it be that his internal power has become soul power in this world
Perhaps it was because Tang San's innate full spirit power gave Su Yuntao a big impact, and he took the trouble to explain: "Our martial spirit level is like this, every tenth level is a title. As long as the martial spirit awakens , it can automatically be called a spirit warrior. Of course, it is only a first-level spirit warrior. The level is divided according to the strength of the martial spirit power. The so-called congenital full spirit power means that after awakening, the spirit power can reach the highest ten innate. Level level. I have never met a person with innate soul power, and when I woke up, it was only second-level soul power."
Tang San had come to his senses at this time, he had finally found a real spirit master, he naturally wouldn't give up, and hurriedly asked his doubts, "Is martial spirit power inherently only at the tenth level? It can't be higher. ?"
Su Yuntao's whole body was azure, and he withdrew his spirit possession, "Of course not. It is not easy to improve the strength of a spirit master. Every time a title is leaped, it is not only the spirit power that must reach the peak of the previous title. At the same time, you need to get a spirit ring. Without a spirit ring, even if you practice hard, you will not be able to enter the next title. Just like you are now, because you have reached the innate full spirit power, so your spirit power thinks If you want to continue to improve, it is not just meditation, but you must first get a soul ring and enter the next level before you can continue to practice."
Tang San suddenly said: "Spirit ring, is that the halo you had just now? You are twenty-sixth rank, so you have two spirit rings."
Su Yuntao nodded and said, "That's right. Your situation is very special. You are a genius that is rare to see in a hundred years. It's a pity, it's such a pity. It’s just a farming tool, and it’s much stronger than the blue silver grass of the waste spirit. In that case, I can also…”
He didn't say any more, but Tang San also vaguely understood what he meant, but the veil covering his heart seemed to be lifted.
Tang San has always been a person who is good at thinking, in the previous life, and in this life. According to what Su Yuntao said, if the soul power is really connected with his own internal power. Then, after coming to this world, the internal power that he cultivated becomes soul power, and the reason why his Xuan Tian Gong cannot enter the second realm is because of the so-called soul ring. In other words, if you want to improve further, you must obtain a spirit ring like a spirit master. But what is a soul ring
Tang San was about to continue asking, but Su Yuntao had already picked up his own package and walked outside.
"Old Jack."
The door opened, and Old Jack greeted Su Yuntao nervously, "Master, how is it. Is it possible for the children in our village to become spirit masters this year?"
Su Yuntao looked at him, sighed, and said, "There is one, but it's a pity."
With a look of surprise in Jack's eyes, he asked tentatively, "Master, what is that..."
Su Yuntao said, "Among the eight children this year, only one has soul power, and he is still full of soul power. Unfortunately, his martial soul is Blue Silver Grass. Do you understand?"
"Blue Silver Grass? Innately full of soul power? Oh my god." The disappointed expression on Jack's face was even more serious than Su Yuntao's. He has also been the village chief for so many years, so he naturally understands what the congenital full soul power means. But this innate full of soul power appeared on the Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul, but it was really…
"Master, is there really no way for Blue Silver Grass to cultivate?" Jack asked with a frown.
Su Yuntao could feel Old Jack's mood, but he wasn't as proud as he was at the beginning. He patted Old Jack on the shoulder and said, "It's not that you can't cultivate at all. It's just that you think that Blue Silver Grass increases with the improvement of martial arts. , what will it evolve into? After all, a waste spirit is a waste spirit. Even if you become a soul master, I am afraid that you are still a waste soul master. It’s a pity that you are born full of soul power. Go to the next village."
After all, Su Yuntao left the village without waiting for Tang San to ask any more questions. Without Su Yuntao, Tang San could only run to Jack and ask the question he wanted to know most, "Grandpa Jack, what is it? Soul ring? How can I get a soul ring?"
Old Jack seemed to be still thinking about Su Yuntao's words, and subconsciously replied: "I don't know what a soul ring is either. If you want to get a soul ring, it seems to be hunting soul beasts. That is a very dangerous thing, only Only the soul master will do it."
