Waste Star Souls

The Great Barren World.

The most ancient and magnificent building in Ningnan City, the capital, is not the City Lord's Mansion nor the Mu House of the first star soul warrior Mu YueLong. It is the "Ningnan Star Soul Academy."

The Ningnan Star Soul Academy can be called the sacred place of Ningnan City. Thousands of years have passed since its establishment, and countless star soul warriors have been born here.

The Star Soul Academy is divided into the "Star Soul Hall" and the "Star Drawing Hall," and there are also ten or so "lecture halls," each of which can accommodate over a hundred people. Any noble family children in Ningnan City who are fifteen years old or older and have awakened their star souls can enter the Star Soul Academy to learn star soul knowledge.

"Ancient divine beasts, transformed into stars!"

In the No. 6 Lecture Hall of the Inspiration Hall, a robust, middle-aged man with a full beard, the lecturer, was delivering a lecture in a loud voice.

"The meaning of this sentence is that in the ancient times of our Great Wasteland, divine beasts roamed freely," the lecturer said.

"Xiezhi, Qiongqi, Yingcao, Panshin...,"

"Legendary divine beasts were everywhere."

"Each divine beast had the formidable ability to destroy mountains and seas and catch stars and the moon."

"Unfortunately, later natural disasters struck the Great Wasteland."

"Many divine beasts perished, transforming into the stars in the sky that illuminated the night."

"After that, the human race rose in the Great Wasteland."

"Some pioneers of the human race discovered that they could sense the power of the stars while sitting in meditation under the night sky, and they awakened 'star souls'. Star souls are the power of the star beasts, some warriors' star souls are Panshin, while others are Qiongqi, and even stronger divine beasts such as Qilin, True Dragon, and Kuanlong can be awakened as well. Cultivating to the extreme can result in obtaining powerful strength and terrifying divine abilities. Cultivating star souls is called 'star soul cultivation'!"

The bearded lecturer explained the origin of 'star soul cultivators' in a gentle manner.

However, the over one hundred young men and women below were drowsy.

"I've heard the origin of star soul cultivators from Tuoba Lecturer more than ten times.

"Every time he gives a lecture, it seems that he has to explain the origin of star soul cultivators again. He doesn't get tired of it, but we are tired of it." "We are students of the 'Starlight Guild'!"

"Students of the 'Starlight Guild' all awakened 'Waste Star Soul' when they awakened their star souls!"

It seems that the geniuses of the Xinghun Hall are awakening their star souls to either the Pantheon or the Qiongchi, or even the super geniuses are awakening the star soul of the Vermilion Bird. The worst ones also awaken the star soul of the ancient mammoth, all of them have incredibly strong talents and are destined to become brilliant star soul warriors.

However, we are awakening either a sheep or a cat, or even a tree or a grass as our own star souls. The strongest one has only awakened a normal tiger... The most bizarre is Muyan, whose star soul is a stone, which can be called the worst of the waste star souls, and is not suitable for combat at all.

We are awakening waste star souls, and it is almost impossible for us to become star soul warriors. At most, we can become "star soul guides" to help star soul warriors channel the power of stars and assist them in their training. Professor Tuoba told us so much, but it's of no use!

The young men and women in the lecture hall are bored and muttering among themselves.

In the vast world of Dahang, star souls are supreme.

In the ancient times, divine beasts roamed the world of Dahang, but later a natural disaster occurred, and almost all the ancient divine beasts perished.

After their demise, the power of the ancient divine beasts did not dissipate, but instead merged into the stars in the sky. Within the warrior's dantian, there exists a star sea. At the age of 15, a warrior can draw upon the power of the stars in the heavens and open the star sea, awakening the "star soul".

The "star soul" awakened by a warrior can be any object.

A single blade of grass, a tree.

A tame beast.

Even a stone or a grain of sand.

Of course, the "star soul" awakened by a warrior could also be a ferocious beast from the vast wilderness, or even an ancient divine beast.

If the awakened "star soul" is powerful enough, it is possible to become a formidable "star soul warrior" through cultivation, by drawing upon the power of the star soul within the body.

For example.

A warrior's life star soul is a Kunqi divine beast.

When cultivated to the highest level, the warrior can directly obtain the full power of the Kunqi divine beast by mobilizing his inner star soul, and even the attack secret techniques and innate divine powers of the Kunqi divine beast can be fully mastered. The person will transform into a "human-shaped Kunqi", with terrifying strength.

In simple terms.

The ultimate strength limit of a warrior is equivalent to the strength of his star soul.

If the warrior's star soul is a Kunqi divine beast, then the warrior's ultimate strength limit is the strength of a Kunqi divine beast.

If the warrior's star soul is a Siman, then the warrior's ultimate strength limit is the strength of a Siman.

If the warrior's star soul is a Qinglong, Fengling, Kuanpeng, etc. super divine beast, then the warrior's ultimate strength can reach the level of Qinglong, Fengling, and Kuanpeng!

Of course...

If a warrior's star soul is a tree.

Then no matter how much he trains in the future, he can at most obtain the power of a tree by mobilizing his inner star soul.

If it's a grass.

No matter how much he trains, he can at most obtain the power of a grass.

If the warrior's star soul is a rabbit or a goat, then the maximum power he can obtain is the power of a rabbit or a goat, which is not as strong as his own power.

If the warrior's star soul is a wild beast or an ancient divine beast, it is a "battle star soul".

If it is ordinary beasts, plants, mountains and stones, then it is called "waste star soul".

If one possesses a combat star soul, of course, one can become a star soul warrior.

However, if one possesses a "waste star soul", one cannot use star soul to fight, and can only become an "inspirer", helping star soul warriors to channel the power of stars, and enhance the strength of star soul warriors, playing a supporting role.

In the Star Soul Academy of Ningnan, the young men and women in the Inspirer Hall have all awakened "waste star souls", which means they are doomed to be unable to become star soul warriors for the rest of their lives, and can only be inspirers.

The bearded instructor was telling them the origin of star soul warriors, of course, and these young men and women were naturally a bit impatient.

"Look, Muyan seems to be daydreaming too."

"Haha, Muyan is one of our best students in the lecture hall. He is always the most attentive during class. I didn't expect him to have a moment of distraction too."

"After listening to Tubo instructor explain the origin of star soul warriors dozens of times, who wouldn't get bored and daydream?"

A few bored young men and women looked at the corner of the lecture hall, where a young man was daydreaming.

"Muyan is considered the top talent in our Inspirer Hall!"

"It's said that his star soul just awakened at the basic level of grade 7. That means he immediately gained 7% of the power of his star soul after awakening!"

"Unfortunately..." "His awakened star soul is actually a stone!"

"It's the most worthless star soul among the waste star souls!"

"Not only is his initial foundation level 7 useless, even if his initial level was at the ninth level of the star soul, it would still be useless!"

"He is doomed to never become a Star Soul Warrior."

"He is considered the first genius in our Introducing Stars Hall, but compared to the talents of Star Soul Hall, he is nothing. At most, he might have a chance to become a decent Star Soul Guide in the future."

"Mu Yan has awakened a waste Star Soul, but I heard that Mu Xinning, the first genius girl of Star Soul Hall, is Mu Yan's younger sister. They are twin siblings born on the same day of the same month. Mu Yan has awakened a waste Star Soul, while Mu Xinning has awakened the legendary 'Zhuque' Star Soul, which is the topmost divine beast Star Soul. Moreover, she started at level 3 and can obtain 3% of the power of the Zhuque divine beast. She can be considered the strongest genius in the history of Ningnan City!"

"I also heard that Mu Yan and Mu Xinning are the illegitimate children of Mu Yue Long, the top Star Soul Warrior of Ningnan City..."

"Shh! Be quiet!"

"You dare to spread gossip about Mu Yue Long?"

"Fortunately, Mu Yue Long is currently in seclusion. Otherwise, you would have sensed him immediately when discussing him..."

"Alright, alright. Tuoba Lecturer has begun his formal lesson. Pay attention and listen carefully. Even if you can't become a Star Soul Warrior, at least you can become a Star Soul Guide in the future and live a comfortable life..."

The bearded lecturer finished his lecture on the history of Star Soul Warriors and began his formal lesson.

The young men and women who had been daydreaming immediately concentrated on listening attentively. The fact that they unleashed the souls of the dead stars cannot be changed.

Since they cannot become star soul warriors, they can only accept their fate as star soul guides.

At this moment.

In the entire lecture hall, only the boy named Muyan in the corner was still in a dazed state.

He lowered his head slightly.

Clenching his teeth, clenching his fists, his eyes filled with resentment and reluctance.

"Why!"

"Why me and Xinning, just two illegitimate children of Mu Yuelong?"

"Why our identity cannot be recognized by the Mu family!"

"Why the legitimate wife of Mu Yuelong, the 'Yao Madam', would treat us like this? A year ago, my mother fell ill and passed away, and the Yao Madam said that as long as Xinning reached the 'Foundation Level 10' level, she would accept us and acknowledge us as Mu family children, and bring us back to the Mu family."

"But a day ago, I accidentally overheard a conversation between two Mu family managers."

"They said that the Yao Madam bringing us back to the Mu family was actually to extract the 'Zhuque' star soul from Xinning's abdomen and transplant it into her own biological daughter Mu Xinying's body! Transplanting a star soul is extremely dangerous, and she not only wants to deprive Xinning of her future, but also doesn't care about her life and death!"

"I and Xinning, in her eyes, are just bastards, and are goods with value!"

Mu Yan clenched his fists tightly, making a crackling sound.

"Xinning has reached the 'Foundation Level 9' level."

"She may break through to the 'Foundation Level 10' level at any time."

"Mu Yuelong is in seclusion for cultivation, and now the Yao Madam is calling the shots in the Mu family. After Xinning breaks through, she will send people to forcefully bring Xinning back to the Mu family, and I cannot stop her." "How unfortunate!"

"Oh God, why did you give me the powerful initial seven-level gift, yet gave me a worthless star soul?"

"If I had a powerful star soul and became a star soul warrior, it would be impossible to watch indifferently as Xinning fell into the clutches of Mrs. Yao and had her star soul forcibly removed by Mr. Yao!"

Thunder!

Mu Yan was filled with anger, and couldn't help but punch the wooden table in front of him with a fierce blow.

A loud explosion rang out, and the entire wooden table shattered.

"What's going on!"

The loud noise made all the young men and women in the lecture hall pause for a moment, and the lecturer at the front, with a thick beard, also stopped his lecture and frowned, asking in a deep voice.
