Chapter 9: Hometown Soul Master's Training Plan

Ah Yin listened to Ye Wen's explanation with admiration in her eyes. Unexpectedly, the soul skills that Ye Wen obtained were exactly as he had anticipated.

You must know that the soul skills obtained by soul masters on the Douluo Continent are largely random. No one can be 100% certain of what soul skills they will acquire. You can only try to hunt the right spirit beasts to obtain the desired soul skills.

Ye Wen also showed a bit of pride in his eyes, but he did not shout enthusiastically like ordinary children. Instead, he and Ah Yin took turns keeping watch through the night. After all, it was already dark, making it impossible for them to return to human society with their small bodies.

The Soul Hunting Forest during the day is already full of dangers, and at night it becomes a paradise for nocturnal soul beasts and a hell for humans. In this dark environment, no one can compete with nocturnal soul beasts.

The two were simply lucky. Not only did they successfully hunt the necessary soul rings on the first day, but there was no special movement at night.

The next morning, the two left the Soul Hunting Forest in an orderly manner. The old guard and the young man still stood at the entrance. Ye Wen was grateful for the old guard's reminder. If the old guard hadn't provided the location where the Green Pouch Beast usually stayed, Ye Wen would have spent more than a few days blindly searching in the Soul Hunting Forest, not to mention the degree of danger.

"Thank you for your help yesterday, uncle," Ye Wen said politely and gratefully.

Looking at the child in front of him who had deeply impressed him, the old guard's eyes showed emotion. He hadn't expected the boy to be so lucky to come out in just one day. After all, they were neither relatives nor acquaintances.

However, as a veteran soul master who feels responsible for civilians, he needed to offer some words of encouragement to his juniors. He said lightly, "Even if you've obtained your first soul skill, don't get too excited. There are many masters in this world. But now that you've obtained your first soul ring, you can go to the Wuhun Hall to register and receive one gold coin per month. This can make your life much easier."

Although this news was common knowledge among soul masters, Ye Wen felt a warmth in his heart.

In his previous life, he didn't know who his parents were and grew up in an orphanage. Knowing that society is dangerous, he could only study hard through crazy efforts to change his fate against all odds. But in the end, he went too far and truly risked his life. In his short life of over 20 years, it seemed that only five people had been so kind to him, apart from his group of roommates. So Ye Wen secretly decided that if he had the ability in the future, he wouldn't mind helping the old guard.

The two chatted for a few more moments, and Ye Wen and Ah Yin set off together for Notting Junior College.

Along the way, Ye Wen realized his own deficiencies. He had wisdom beyond his time, but his combat power was insufficient. Otherwise, the progress of his subsequent research on martial arts would definitely be very slow, and he didn't want to become a theoretical master like Yu Xiaogang, who deceives others with conjectures.

A real theory must have a scientific basis, a summary of data, and a plan with a very small error rate to be considered a qualified theory. Otherwise, it would be a waste of human lives.

"What are you thinking about? Is there something on your mind?" Ah Yin noticed Ye Wen's distraction and asked curiously.

Ye Wen pondered for a moment and then said, "I plan to start training disciples and building our own team when we reach the third ring in the future. My research on martial arts will definitely require more and more research data, and I won't be able to do it all by myself."

Hearing such a bothersome thing, Ah Yin immediately lost interest. As a member of the Blue Silver Grass clan with a carefree personality, she allowed her clan members to grow as they wished, without knowing how to train her subordinates. The Blue Silver Emperor really had no such ambition.

Seeing Ah Yin start to play again, Ye Wen's mouth twitched, but there was nothing he could do.

The two soon returned to Notting Junior College, but they were not in a hurry to register as soul masters in the Wuhun Hall to receive their allowances. Instead, they took a crystal ball to test their soul power and first tested their own.

Ye Wen, a level 15 soul master, and Ah Yin, a level 15 soul master, had almost the same soul power. These were true geniuses with full innate soul power. None of them had the additional enhancement of soul power from the soul ring, yet they could both improve five levels in one year of training.

As for Tang San? He was born with a lot of soul power, but in the beginning, he wasn't impressive and couldn't do much. After practicing Xuantian Kung for a while, he felt he couldn't continue. After practicing extensively, he barely managed to reach Xiao Wu's true innate soul power.

Ha, true innate soul power is like this (_).

But seeing such high soul power, Ye Wen was distressed.

Before mastering the true control and release of soul power, the two should not register in the Wuhun Hall, otherwise, their innate soul power would be directly exposed.

Therefore, the next training task for the two is to fully control the intensity of their soul power to deceive the soul power detector.

And this skill can be used continuously up to the soul master level. As long as the soul power is suppressed enough, then I am not a soul master. It's very cool to be able to keep cheating on subsidies! Hahaha (.-`ω-)

The following days were as boring as ever. Under the supervision of the teacher, they learned basic soul master knowledge and then practiced quietly for a day.

Soon, the winter vacation of the second year arrived, and I returned again to the familiar Holy Soul Village, with the same vast fields and familiar relatives as before.

"Grandpa, I want to do an experiment. If it succeeds, there might be a few soul masters in our village."

The family was happily eating when Ye Wen suddenly told Ye Buyi about his idea of cultivating soul masters in their hometown.

But Ye Buyi did not immediately agree with Ye Wen. Instead, he stroked his long white goatee. "How certain are you? After all, in my whole life, I've never heard of a soul master being able to artificially induce birth."

"Really... Let's do this. The villagers usually only think about having a child with soul master qualifications. I think they won't refuse the opportunity to become a soul master. However, I promise Xiaowen will never do anything that violates the law. Otherwise, he will be labeled as a fallen soul master by the soul masters of the Wuhun Hall."

He seemed to have made some determination in his heart. Ye Buyi agreed in a deep voice.
