Chapter 1 001 Xiao Wu·Soft Bone Charm Rabbit, Xia Jie·Black Iron Rod!
Douluo Continent.
Tiandou Empire, southwestern border, Fasno Province.
Nottingham, Barlow Village.
The martial soul awakening ceremony was in progress. A young man activated the beast martial soul to protect his body and awakened the martial souls for the children. He announced: "Martial soul: Soft bone charm rabbit."
"Now, test your soul power."
The young man looked at the cute six-year-old girl in a red dress and said softly, "Little girl, relax and put your hand on the soul stone."
The little girl nodded gently and placed her hand on the soul stone.
buzz~
Boom~
The soul stone hummed and trembled, shining brightly, illuminating the entire room.
The young man was shocked and said, "It's actually the innate full soul power!"
He said in disbelief: "The Soft Bone Charm Rabbit is clearly just an ordinary beast spirit. According to the records of the Spirit Hall, there has never been a Titled Douluo with the Soft Bone Charm Rabbit spirit born on the Douluo Continent."
After a pause, the young man shook his head and said to himself: "Forget it, even the useless martial soul, Blue Silver Grass, can have innate full soul power."
"The Soft Bone Charm Rabbit is countless times stronger than the Blue Silver Grass."
The young man looked at the girl and asked, "What's your name, little girl?"
The little girl looked up, her big black eyes full of innocence, and said, "Uncle, my name is Xiaowu, which means dance."
"Xiao Wu, I remember that." The young man said, "Okay, Xiao Wu, go wait aside first."
The young man added: "Next one."
As he finished speaking, a six-year-old boy stepped forward.
The awakening of martial soul is divided into two steps: awakening of martial soul and detection of innate soul power.
Every year, the Spirit Hall allows civilians to awaken their spirits and test their innate spirit power for free. It also gives each village a place for a work-study student, allowing civilians to become spirit masters, cross domains and classes, and change their destiny.
The young man shook his head and said, "Martial Spirit: Scythe."
"Does a sickle count as a weapon spirit? It's nothing, it has some attack power at least."
"Let me test your soul power."
The six-year-old boy placed his hand on the soul stone with an anxious look on his face, but the soul stone did not react at all.
The young man shook his head and said, "Without soul power, you cannot practice. You are destined not to become a soul master."
"next."
Another boy walked forward, and after his martial spirit awakened, a blue silver grass appeared on the palm of his right hand.
The young man shook his head and said, "Blue Silver Grass, this is the most standard useless martial spirit in Douluo Continent."
Immediately afterwards, the soul power test began.
The young man understood everything and said calmly, "Sure enough, there is not even a bit of soul power."
At this moment, only one of the seven children has not yet awakened his martial spirit.
The young man said, "The last one, come forward."
Hearing this, Xia Jie stepped forward and thought to himself, "Sure enough, the Xiao Wu who came to Baluo Village a few days ago is really the heroine Xiao Wu of Douluo Continent."
"This young man in front of me is from the Spirit Hall. His spirit is called Lone Wolf. He helps the children in the village awaken their spirits. He previously called himself Su Yuntao."
Soon, Xia Jie walked forward, took a deep breath, and slowly stretched out his right hand, feeling inevitably nervous.
"I have been in Douluo Continent for six years, and I have never awakened any golden fingers or systems."
"Now, awakening my martial soul is my only chance to change my fate."
"I hope it's not a useless martial spirit."
...
Su Yuntao seemed to notice Xia Jie's nervousness and said to him in comfort, "Don't be afraid, kid. Just relax and put your hand on the Martial Soul Awakening Stone."
"Yeah." Xia Jie nodded and touched the awakening stone with his right hand.
boom!
The next second, the awakening stone glowed, and a strange energy was injected into Xia Jie's body, drawing out the martial soul hidden deep in his body and blood.
For a moment, Xia Jie felt hot all over, and his right hand opened uncontrollably, and an iron rod emerged.
The iron rod gradually grew from small to large. At first, it was only the size of an embroidery needle, a finger, or a flashlight, and finally it became a three-foot iron rod, solid and hard, and all jet black.
Su Yuntao's eyes lit up and he smiled, "Although the Wuhun·Black Iron Rod is one of the most common weapon Wuhun, it is definitely not a useless Wuhun."
"Come, let's test your soul power."
After hearing this, Xia Jie felt much relieved of his tension.
Next, as long as he possesses innate soul power, even just a tiny bit, he can practice to improve his soul power and become a soul master.
Buzz!
Soon, the soul stone responded and flashed slightly.
Su Yuntao nodded and said, "Looking at this level, the innate soul power should be level 2, not bad."
"Congratulations, kid, you are qualified to become a soul master."
Su Yuntao smiled and said, "When I awakened my martial soul, my innate soul power was also level 2. Now I am already a great soul master." Hearing this, Xia Jie smiled politely and said, "Thank you."
In Douluo Continent, only by becoming a soul master can one enjoy upper-level resources and become part of the aristocratic class.
Even if you are just an ordinary soul master or a great soul master, you can have a decent job, never worry about food and clothing, don't have to work hard all your life, and don't have to worry about being exploited by nobles and landlords.
Xia Jie thought to himself: "The bigger your ability is, the bigger your heart is."
"If I am destined not to become a god and my potential is limited, I will just be an ordinary soul master, find a decent job, marry three wives and four concubines, and enjoy a lifetime of wealth and honor."
...
"Ding dong!"
Suddenly, Xia Jie was shocked.
In his mind, a ding-dong sounded, and a cold voice came: "Ding, the host Xia Jie's martial soul has awakened successfully, and the system binding is complete."
"Ding, the full name of this system is 'Break up the CP and become stronger system'!"
"As the name implies, as long as you, the host, successfully break up the official CP of Douluo Continent, you will receive generous system rewards."
"In addition, since you, the host, are currently just a worthless person, and there are many strong people on the Douluo Continent who can kill you instantly."
"Therefore, this system has decided to give you a new member gift package."
...
"Child, child..."
Su Yuntao asked loudly: "Child, what's your name?"
Xia Jie came back to his senses and answered subconsciously: "My name is Xia Jie, Xia for summer, Jie for outstanding."
"Xia Jie~" Su Yuntao repeated.
Then, Su Yuntao ordered: "Except Xiao Wu and Xia Jie, everyone else should leave first."
Upon hearing this, the other children left with a sad look on their faces.
Soon, only Su Yuntao, Xia Jie and Xiao Wu were left in the Awakening Hall.
Su Yuntao looked at Xiao Wu and Xia Jie and said, "Xiao Wu, Xia Jie, both of you have the potential to become soul masters."
"However, there is only one work-study student quota in Barlow Village, and only one of you can study at Notting College for free."
“The other one will have to pay high tuition fees.”
Xia Jie asked, "I wonder how the tuition at Notting College is calculated?"
Su Yuntao said: "Notting College is only a junior soul master college. Every semester, you need to pay five gold soul coins."
Xia Jie was shocked: "Five gold soul coins?"
Xia Jie has been in Douluo Continent for six years. Five gold soul coins = fifty silver soul coins = five hundred bronze soul coins. For a poor farmer who lives from hunger to hunger, he may not be able to make up the money even if he sells all his belongings.
Xiao Wu swung her ponytail and asked curiously, "Five gold soul coins, is that a lot?"
Xia Jie smiled bitterly and said, "It's not a question of how much it is. Five gold soul coins would require all the families in the entire Baro Village to pool their money together to make up the total."
"Ah, there are so many?" Xiao Wu looked distressed when she heard that.
Su Yuntao laughed and said, "But do you have another choice?"
Su Yuntao didn't keep the secret and said directly: "Xiao Wu, your martial soul is the Soft Bone Charm Rabbit, and it is also extremely rare to have innate full soul power."
"You have the qualifications to join the Junior Spirit Master Academy under the Spirit Hall."
Xiao Wu was shocked: "Joining the Spirit Hall?"
"No, no, no, I don't want to." Xiao Wu refused instantly, causing Su Yuntao to look at her.
Xiao Wu quickly explained: "Uncle, what I mean is that my martial spirit is just a rabbit, and its attack power is not strong. It is far inferior to the top beast martial spirit."
"The Spirit Hall Junior College is full of talented people, all of whom are the continent's top beast spirits and weapon spirits. I, I won't go there."
Su Yuntao advised her a few more times and told Xiao Wu a lot, such as the resources and teaching staff of the Spirit Hall Junior College.
However, Xiao Wu seemed to have made up her mind and was unwilling to leave Notting City too far, and was unwilling to go to Wuhun City or join the Wuhun Hall Junior Soul Master Academy.
Xia Jie thought to himself, "Xiao Wu's mother died at the hands of Bibi Dong, Ju Douluo, and Ghost Douluo. Xiao Wu and Spirit Hall are destined to become enemies."
"In addition, Xiao Wu's original body is the body of a soul beast. Although she has successfully transformed into a human, she still cannot hide from the perception of a Titled Douluo."
"Even if it's at the Contra level, she might expose herself."
"Going to the Spirit Hall is like walking into a trap."
After a long while, Su Yuntao said regretfully: "Forget it, since you don't want to go to Wuhun City, then go to Notting College."
Su Yuntao brought a pen and paper with him, and quickly wrote a letter of recommendation. He then took out a seal and stamped it, saying, "As a martial spirit awakening worker, I have a place for a work-study student."
"With this quota, plus the existing quota of your Barlow Village, both of you can go to Notting College to study."
Xia Jie put away the recommendation letter, his face straightened, and he said seriously: "Master Su Yuntao, thank you very much."
"The feelings of today will be engraved in my heart."
Su Yuntao looked at the six-year-old Xia Jie, who looked solemn and serious, like a little adult. He laughed, patted Xia Jie on the shoulder, and said with a smile:
"Xia Jie, Xiao Wu, I wish you both success in becoming soul masters."
