Titled Douluo's thought - 2

Douluo Mainland

Eastsea City.

Spirit Pagoda.

Xing Mo looked at the figure of Fan Lin as he entered the Spirit Pagoda. She was calm though.

She was going to hide Fan Lin from the pagoda in the past week but she had a change of mind because she couldn't find anything on him and so did the Spirit Pagoda as she was the information handler for them.

Xing Mo tried her best and even convinced her friends to join her 'mission' but none of them found anything.

Much less anything, they couldn't even say that the kid that awakened in the Glorybound town was the Fan Lin he claimed to be.

There was no information. Literally no information, no facial records, retina scan or anything. The only proof Fan Lin had of him being the kidnapped Fan Lin of the Glorybound town ( and also the one he used to identify himself in the Spirit Pagoda and Eastsea Academy ) was his fingerprints.

But the information handlers knew well of the dark side and they knew just how easy it was to fake fingerprints. They had done it multiple times themselves. Now the handlers were more terrified of Fan Lin as to information handlers like them, the unknown was the most dangerous.

With that, Xing Mo heaved a sigh of relief and the way she looked at Fan Lin changed. Fan Lin didn't look that weak and feeble anymore

Now she was both feeling happy that she took action on that day and got him admitted to the Eastsea Academy and skeptical on what if she was wrong about him.

"You came. Okay. Don't be tense or afraid to say what you want." [Xing Mo]

She said while signalling him to follow her.

She knew that the Spirit Pagoda won't do anything to him without knowing his affiliation. She knew that they were stressed out far more than her on not finding anything on him and she also knew that the person in charge of the spiritual power measurement faculty was going to die either way.

She stopped as she sensed Fan Lin suddenly stop on his way.

"Are you fine?" [Xing Mo]

She asked him, worried that he may change his mind and leave.

"Yeah. I am fine." [Fan Lin]

He looked at her and then said with a smile.

"Don't worry, you will be fine." [Xing Mo]

She said and silently took him to the Spiritual power measurement faculty.

He also followed her.

When she reached the advanced spiritual power measurement room, the person in charge and the Titled Douluo were waiting for Fan Lin with a group of researchers that the Tilted Douluo gathered for Fan Lin's spiritual power measurement test.

Xing Mo bowed a little to the Titled Douluo and introduced the Titled Douluo to Fan Lin while signalling him to sit on the spiritual power measurement test chamber. Fan Lin in his 'Dazed' out state just nodded at her and proceeded to do as she said.

He sat down quietly while strapping himself on his own and looked at them. The Titled Douluo nodded to the team of researchers and they began the spiritual power measurement test of Fan Lin.

The report came out normal but it was the number on it that shocked the people.

99.

The Titled Douluo looked at the team of researchers who in turn looked at the person in charge of the Spiritual power measurement faculty and he shook his head signifying that there was no problem with the report.

'How did his spiritual power increase by 40 points in a week?' [Titled Douluo]

The Titled Douluo wondered as he put his hand on Fan Lin's head and tried to input his soul power only to fail.

Fan Lin was still sitting on the chamber and didn't respond to anything else since he was a still 'dazed.'

[Read the previous chapter on why]

The Titled Douluo was both confused and interested at Fan Lin's so called Energy body physique now.

He used his spiritual power to peer through the body of Fan Lin to find any semblance or spiritual signature that didn't belonged to humans and he found nothing abnormal.

'So his body doesn't have any protection to spiritual power.' [Titled Douluo]

The Titled Douluo noted as he took his hands from Fan Lin's forehead and took a step back.

His verification process was done and the result was normal. Fan Lin was a human, a pure human; no soul beast incarnation or a hybrid.

He took out the Darkgold Dreadclaw Bear spirit soul and signalled at Xing Mo to take his straps on.

Xing Mo took out the straps on Fan Lin and he exited the spiritual power measurement chamber (that resembled a dentist's wierd surfboard looking table). Her mind was at ease but she didn't let it show on her face. She calmly took a few steps back and stood aside for the Title Douluo to talk with Fan Lin.

The Titled Douluo on the other hand, gave the Darkgold Dreadclaw Bear spirit soul to Fan Lin making him snap out of his dazed state.

"Thanks." [Fan Lin]

"Can I join the Spirit Pagoda now? I have to go and absorb the spirit soul." [Fan Lin]

Fan Lin casually thanked the Titled Douluo and looked towards Xing Mo. Much to the surprise of everyone around him as Fan Lin just dared to ignore the Title Douluo on his face.

'Interesting. A haughty attitude that didn't put even a Titled Douluo at his eyes.' [The Titled Douluo]

Xing Mo looked at the Titled Douluo, the Titled Douluo continued looking at Fan Lin and Fan Lin was still looking at Xing Mo for an answer.

"Of course you can. You should go and absorb the spirit soul, I will handle the rest of the stuff." [Titled Douluo]

The Titled Douluo said and looked at Xing Mo. Xing Mo didn't need any orders to understand what the Tilted Douluo meant.

"Let me guide you to the spirit soul absorption room. It's a free service for anyone below rank 30." [Xing Mo]

Xing Mo professionally took Fan Lin to the spirit soul absorption room.

'Here is your room. If you have any problems, just ring the bell." [Xing Mo]

Xing Mo said as she opened the door to a room for Fan Lin to absorb his spirit soul.

"Okay." [Fan Lin]

Fan Lin once again smiled at her and went into the room.

On the other hand, the Titled Douluo went to another room where the live footage of Fan Lin's spirit soul absorption room was played.

The person in charge was the only one beside him as the rest of the people were left in the Spiritual power measurement faculty.

"I checked his body, his is a normal human." [Titled Douluo]

The Titled Douluo said to the person in charge making him shiver a little at his words.

"Now why do you think I am still watching him?" [Titled Douluo]

The Titled Douluo asked again.

The person in charge looked at the back of the Titled Douluo and then towards the screen which showed Fan Lin sitting on the floor.

"That maybe he has a way to hide himself." [Wang something]

The person in charge said knowing full well that whatever he said at that moment was futile.

"Nah, I just wanted to watch him absorb the spirit soul. Are you doubting me?" [Titled Douluo]

The Titled Douluo said with a clever glint to his eyes.

"You know, he possesses a physique that is similar to the True Martial Body that is gained at Rank 70 Soul Saint level but it's also different. His Martial Soul did mutate his physique as he claimed." [Titled Douluo]

"Maybe he is one of those weird Martial soul mutation types, the ones that often have the weirdest mutations that comes with a cost. He isn't an Evil Soul Master; at least not now." [Titled Douluo]

"That kid is lucky that he just lost a little bit of his cultivation to gain that physique though. By his speed and with the physique, he could easily reach Rank 70 Soul Saint before the age of 20. Even achieving the Soul Douluo rank is possible for him. That's just how precious that physique is." [Titled Douluo]

"You know, just with his physique alone he was worthy to join the Spirit Pagoda and you guys didn't even check if he was saying the truth or not. Laughable, isn't it? Like what if he went and joined the Tang Sect or some other force..." [Titled Douluo]

"Thankfully he joined us but... you did 15 spiritual power measurement tests on him! 15. Lets just say that what if he wasn't able to endure after his tenth test and suffer the backlash, I am not saying that we would have lost a once in a thousand talent due to you but you get the point right?" [Titled Douluo]

The Titled Douluo finally finished his words and looked at the person in charge of the spiritual power measurement faculty.

Just as the Titled Douluo turned around, Fan Lin took out the Spirit Soul and snapped its neck.

To the outside world, Fan Lin sat down, took the spirit soul out of his container and snapped its neck without a hint of emotion. That's basically a cold blooded killer.

No one knew of the internal conflict that was happening in his mind.

"He is cruel though." [Titled Douluo]

The Titled Douluo commented as he watched Fan Lin. The person in charge was silenced.

Half an hour later, Fan Lin absorbed the Spirit soul, left the spirit soul absorption room and thanked Xing Mo.

He soon left the Spirit Pagoda as he didn't need to pay for anything.

"He trusts that woman only. Good." [Titled Douluo]

The Titled Douluo whispered and went towards the top floor to call the headquarters.

"Haa, a good kid once again out of my reach." [Titled Douluo]

He left the room.

....

Xing Mo once again looked at the back of Fan Lin with myriads of emotions.

She saw his eyes and they were resolute.

'He wants to do something and he wants to do it fast.' [Xing Mo]

'What is it?' [Xing Mo]

Xing Mo thought and silently returned to her position.

.....

A few hours later.

Eastsea Academy.

Fan Lin arrived at the Eastsea Academy a few hours later and went towards his dorm to sleep. He needed a break to get his mind off and plan for the attack on the soul beast gladiator.

He had been in a sour mood since the incomplete cryptic message from that God.

His 'conscience' was another thing that he hated.

He couldn't do anything to that God so the only problem left is his 'conscience'.

'Why am I still calling it my conscience? It's mental demon. Yup, it's mental demon." [Fan Lin]

Fan Lin said out loud and went to sleep.

He wanted to rest and he will rest.

'At least a few things should go according to how I want, shouldn't it?' [Fan Lin]

And Fan Lin drifted into sleep.

The Titled Douluo was watching over his every action and found no special oddities except that Fan Lin was too calm.

That's what he thought. If he knew what was going on in Fan Lin's mind, he would have not thought so but he wasn't a mind reader.

He soon disappeared. He still needed to report the matter to his boss directly and also get the reward for his work.

"But who is this kid? Why is there no information on him before his departure from the Glorybound town two months ago?" [Titled Douluo]

"Who could be the one who hid his information but let him roam the world freely? Like what was his purpose?" [Titled Douluo]

"Well, I will let the President think about it. My work is done here." [Titled Douluo]

The Titled Douluo questioned the situation and left.
