Chapter 2 Planning and Research
Feeling a great suction force coming from the crystal ball under his palm, Shi Yi also felt a familiar warmth in his body, flowing out from his palm along his arm and sinking into the crystal ball.
In just a moment, the crystal ball lit up and emitted a faint glow.
The young man seemed to be not too surprised to see the crystal ball light up.
"Yes, with the first level of innate soul power, you can become a soul master." The young man whispered to Shi Yi, and it seemed that his attitude had changed a little.
Hearing this, the other children also cast envious eyes on Shi Yi.
Shi Yi also smiled from the bottom of his heart at this time. As long as he had soul power, everything would be fine. At least he got his own ticket to the world of Douluo Continent.
Shi Yi also bowed to the young man politely and said, "Thank you, Master Soul Master."
Looking at Shi Yi's appearance, the young man thought that Shi Yi was imitating Li Changshou, and couldn't help but smile and said, "Since you have awakened your soul power, you can go to the Junior Soul Master Academy to study."
The young man took out a piece of paper from the package and gave it to Shi Yi to issue an awakening certificate. Only with the certificate can Shi Yi go to the Junior Soul Master Academy to study.
Not long after, the young man handed the written certificate to Shi Yi and whispered, "You must keep this certificate. Only with this certificate can you enroll in the academy as a work-study student. The academy only recognizes certificates and not people. The nobles don't have time to re-measure your soul power."
Shi Yi also carefully put the certificate away after hearing this. The original story of Tang San's encounter with the concierge has explained everything.
After the ceremony, the children all left slowly with a look of disappointment on their faces. The young man also began to pack up and prepare to go to the next stop. Shi Yi did not leave, but helped the young man to pick up the black stones on the ground, and shouted to the young man in a low voice: "Master Soul Master."
The young man raised his head slightly and looked at Shi Yi. Seeing Shi Yi helping him to clean up, he couldn't help but feel a little more favorable in his heart, and whispered to Shi Yi: "Is there anything else?"
"I want to ask you, can I go to the Notting City Junior Soul Master Academy with my Soul Master Certificate?" Shi Yi asked the young man in a low voice.
The young man was not surprised, because many people have asked such questions, most of them are to seek refuge with relatives. Although they can become soul masters, many low-level soul masters still have to solve the problem of livelihood.
The young man nodded slightly and said: "If it is only Notting City, it is possible, but you can't go to cities outside the Fasno Province."
A hint of joy flashed in Shi Yi's eyes. Although he didn't know where he was in the timeline, he still wanted to try his luck with Tang San. The reason was very simple. His only advantage in this world was his understanding of the plot.
One is fate, two is luck, three is feng shui, four is accumulating good deeds, and five is reading.
Six is reputation, seven is appearance, eight is respecting gods, nine is making friends with noble people, and ten is keeping in good health.
This is what the dean of the previous life told him, and he has always kept it in mind. In his previous life, he also achieved some success because of these.
His fate in this world is still not very good, but it is not bad. At least it has surpassed most people who cannot practice. The rest depends on his own operation.
If he can follow the protagonist, can the feng shui be bad? As for how the person is, Shi Yi doesn't care. At least he is safe next to the protagonist. The most important thing is that he still lacks a very important thing, that is, knowledge. Cultivation is also a subject. Although Yu Xiaogang is not very good at this subject, it does not prevent him from going to the Wuhun Hall and seeing much more of the world. At least he is much better than a modern person who has never been exposed to cultivation. At least at this stage, it is like this. Shi Yi would rather go to the Wuhun Hall Academy, but his strength does not allow it.
Shi Yi thought about it, holding the six stones he had packed in his palm and handed them to the young man. The young man smiled and took the formation stone from Shi Yi.
"Well, I should go to the next village. The junior college will start soon. If you want to go to Nottingham, you should hurry up. This journey is not easy for you." The young man kindly reminded Shi Yi.
Shi Yi nodded, and he was a little impatient. As a person who traveled from modern civilization, he had not experienced what it was like to practice. He was also very much looking forward to his martial soul. He knew that this was a potential mutation. After all, he had also seen Pokémon.
Thinking of this, Shi Yi was also eager to go home. He had not had time to study his martial soul. How to continue on his future path should also be planned well.
Shi Yi went out with the young man. When he walked out of the door, he saw Li Changshou coming to greet him with a nervous face.
"Master Soul Master, I heard from the children that Xiao Yi has awakened his soul power. Is there any problem?" Li Changshou asked the young man.
The young man shook his head and said, "It's okay, the child is very sensible. Come pack up with me. It's getting late, so I'll leave first."
Li Changshou was relieved when he heard this, and bowed slightly to the young man and said, "Thank you for your help, Master Soul Master." The young man
nodded and strode out of the village.
After seeing the young man off, Li Changshou's kind eyes slowly fell on Shi Yi and said softly, "Congratulations, Xiao Yi, there hasn't been a soul master in our village for a long time."
"Thanks to your help and the uncles, Xiao Yi wouldn't be alive until now." Shi Yi said softly.
Hearing this, Li Changshou slowly raised his hand and gently rubbed Shi Yi's head, "Good boy..."
Li Changshou slowly took Shi Yi's hand and said, "Come with grandpa, grandpa will prepare some things for you, it's time for you to leave the village."
Shi Yi let the old man lead him away, suppressing his desire to study martial spirits, looking up at the slightly haggard face, and a little warmth surged in his heart. He clearly remembered that when he was admitted to university in his previous life, the dean gave him a thousand yuan and applied for various subsidies for him.
Soon Li Changshou led Shi Yi to the front of his yard and saw a middle-aged man. Shi Yi recognized him. This was Li Changshou's son, named Li Yi.
Then Shi Yi also hurriedly greeted him, "Uncle Yi."
"Little Yi." Li Yi looked at Shi Yi with great enthusiasm.
Shi Yi is now delicate and beautiful. People in the village say that Shi Yi will definitely be the most handsome young man in the surrounding area when he grows up. Who can refuse such a delicate and polite child?
"Xiaoyi, go prepare a package for Xiaoyi and bring some more dry food." Li Changshou said to his son.
"Dry food? Xiaoyi is going on a long journey?" Li Yi asked in confusion.
"Today, the soul master came to awaken the martial souls for the children, and Xiaoyi awakened his soul power." Li Changshou explained simply.
Li Yi was surprised when he heard this. After thinking for a while, he seemed to take it for granted. "Xiao Yi has been very smart since he was a child. He is a good seedling. Congratulations. Uncle will pack some things for you now."
After that, Li Yi went to the house. Li Changshou also took Shi Yi to sit down slowly in the yard.
"Xiao Yi, it is the spring ploughing time now. Grandpa can't leave. Our village is close to the city. There is an official road not far from the village. Grandpa will not take you to the city." Li Changshou said softly to Shi Yi.
Shi Yi nodded. It happened that he didn't know how to explain to Li Changshou that he was going to Notting City. "Don't bother. I will go to the city with the uncles and uncles who are going to the market tomorrow."
Li Changshou nodded. He thought so too.
"You must learn skills well when you enter the city. Xiao Yi is so smart that he will definitely achieve something." Li Changshou looked at Shi Yi kindly.
As he was talking, Li Yi came out of the room with a big package in his hand, which was almost half the size of Shi Yi.
"Take it. It's not expensive. I can only help you this much." Li Yi handed the package in his hand to Shi Yi.
The moment Shi Yi took the package, he heard a slight metal sound in the package and bowed slightly to Li Yi.
Seeing this, Li Yi hurriedly helped Shi Yi up and said, "Silly child, we are all family, why are you being polite to me?"
Shi Yi was slightly lost in thought as he looked at the package in his hand. In fact, this kind of scene was what he was best at dealing with. After so many years of struggling in society, he certainly knew what he should say at this moment. But when he took the thousand yuan, he said nothing and just left silently. After he succeeded in his work, he would save some money and donate it to the orphanage. He would also often bring things to visit the children and the director of the orphanage, because he felt from the bottom of his heart that words of gratitude were just words of gratitude and not real gratitude.
After chatting with the father and son, Shi Yi slowly left.
Soon he returned to his home. This was a small wooden house built for him by Li Changshou and the villagers. The place was not big, with only one simple room, which was enough for a child like him.
Shi Yi sat on his bed, recalling the feeling of awakening his martial soul, slowly raised his right hand, and an ant appeared in his hand with a thought.
Shi Yi looked at the ant in his palm and gently stroked it with his left hand. Shi Yi saw the long antennae move, and a wonderful feeling that he had never had before appeared in Shi Yi's heart. If Shi Yi had to describe it, he seemed to have a blood connection with the ant in his hand, or telepathy. He seemed to be able to vaguely feel the emotions of the martial soul, although it was not real.
"I don't know what to call you, so why not call you Little Ant."
"Can you eat?" Shi Yi said softly. He wanted to understand whether his martial soul really had all the characteristics of a living thing.
If it really had all the characteristics of a living thing, then could his martial soul have the possibility of independent growth like a soul beast?
The ant naturally didn't understand what Shi Yi said, but he could feel Shi Yi's doubtful mood.
Shi Yi looked at the ant moving slightly in his palm, and couldn't help patting his head with his left hand, "I'm really crazy. Even in the fantasy world, it's impossible for it to understand human language so quickly."
"Ants eat a lot of things. Let's try it first to see if it can eat."
Thinking of this, Shi Yi scooped a little bit of the rice porridge left over from his morning meal with his fingertips and put it in his palm.
Understanding what Shi Yi meant, the little ant circled around the little bit of rice porridge, but didn't eat a bite, as if to say, "Just give me this thing?"
Shi Yi just watched the little ant circle around the little bit of rice porridge, his eyes full of expectation, but now he couldn't understand what the little ant meant.
Seeing that Shi Yi kept staring at him, but didn't move, and feeling Shi Yi's expectation, the little ant had no choice but to eat a little bit with disdain.
Seeing that the little ant could eat, Shi Yi's eyes flashed with excitement. Being able to eat means that the little ant can actively absorb energy from nature between heaven and earth. This alone is something that most martial spirits cannot do.
Shi Yi still remembers that Yu Xiaogang once said, "The body and the martial spirit are a pair of twins, but the body is the dominant one. And cultivating the martial spirit and letting it grow together with our body is the best way to treat our brother."
Shi Yi thinks this sentence is right, and most soul masters are applicable to this sentence, but Yu Xiaogang himself is not applicable to this sentence. If the martial spirit has a very high intelligence and can be like a normal living thing, then it can't be said that who is dominant, but the martial spirit and the soul master have truly reached a state of balance.
Thinking of this, Shi Yi suddenly understood why Yu Xiaogang could not break through his innate shackles. Yu Xiaogang has always been emphasizing the unilateral practice of the soul master.
A single yin cannot grow, and a single yang cannot be born.
With Yu Xiaogang's pitiful innate half-level soul power, it is impossible to lead Luo Sanpao, who has the blood of the Golden Holy Dragon, to evolve by only emphasizing the soul master's unilateral personal practice. If he had full innate soul power, he could use his powerful talent to feed back his martial soul and promote the awakening of the blood in the martial soul. This is why the soul master will constantly bring changes to his martial soul as his practice grows.
Since soul masters can eat, sleep, and practice, why can't living martial souls like Luo Sanpao and Xiaoyi, like soul beasts, plunder, devour, and gradually improve their blood power to make their blood stronger? Isn't that how the three Qianjun ant emperors in the Xingdou Great Forest came about?
The more Shi Yi thought about it, the more excited he became. At this moment, he even wanted to leave the village and start his journey as a soul master.
"I don't know which time period of the original work I am in now."
Shi Yi gently placed the little ant in his hand on the table not far away. A new question came to his mind. He didn't know if the little ant had the ability to autonomously guide the free energy of heaven and earth in a normal environment without eating.
This question needs time to be proven. If the martial soul can really absorb the free energy between heaven and earth on its own, and is equipped with extremely high intelligence, and meets these conditions, then it means that the martial soul of a living creature can even meditate and practice on its own.
This world has a special mimicry practice environment for martial souls of different attributes, and the power of the martial soul will also be enhanced in a suitable environment. All these can show that the martial soul will be affected by the environment. Shi Yi believes that long-term release is definitely much stronger than keeping it in the body.
Shi Yi slowly lay on his bed, quietly watching Xiao Yi explore this new world, and couldn't help but smile. At this moment, Shi Yi had a special feeling in his heart, which was completely different from being alone.
"Xiao Yi, we will be relatives in the future."
