Chapter 3 -  Blue Silver Grass, Evolving

Su Yuntao looked at Wang Li with a pitiful expression. He sighed and shook his head before finally saying, 

"Third-rank soul power. With talent like that, why does it have to be the Blue Silver Grass martial soul? This kind of martial soul has no offensive power and no defensive power. Even if it were a hammer or an axe, you could still become an excellent soul master…"

After finishing his lament, Su Yuntao still dutifully asked, 

"Child, what is your name?"

Hearing this, Wang Li immediately replied, 

"Wang Li!"

Su Yuntao took out paper and pen and swiftly filled out a Spirit Hall certificate. Wang Family Village, Wang Li… When it came time to fill in the martial soul, Su Yuntao thought of that thicker and more upright Blue Silver Grass. On a whim, he wrote the words "Mutated Blue Silver Grass," and finally filled in third-rank soul power.

After completing it, he handed the certificate bearing the Spirit Hall emblem to Wang Li and said, 

"Child, take this certificate and wait over there."

Holding the Spirit Hall certificate, Wang Li walked out of the formation and stood to the side, his expression still somewhat blank.

Su Yuntao glanced at him again, and the pity in his heart deepened. In his view, Wang Li simply could not accept the news right away. He clearly had soul power, yet his martial soul was useless. Shaking his head, he said, 

"Next…"

What Su Yuntao did not know was that at this very moment, Wang Li was looking at a panel that had awakened on the same day his memories awakened. A portion that had never been unlocked before was finally opened today:

[Host: Wang Li] 

[Martial Soul: Blue Silver Grass Lv2 (Evolving)] 

[Soul Power: Third-rank Soul Power (54%) +] 

[Trait: Vitality Lv2 (Blue Silver Grass spreads across every corner of the continent. Though pitifully weak, it possesses strong vitality and can slowly recover after taking damage.)] 

[Passive: Tenacity Lv2 (What does not kill me makes me stronger. When facing any abnormal condition, as long as it does not result in immediate death, once recovered, the body will become even stronger.)] 

[Soul Ring: None] 

[Soul Bone: None] 

[Experience: 0]

Looking at this panel, some of the doubts in Wang Li's heart were finally answered.

My martial soul is still Blue Silver Grass, but it is not some mutated Blue Silver Grass. It is evolving Blue Silver Grass. Is its evolution caused by my transmigration, or is it because of this panel?

In any case, this is a good thing. Blue Silver Grass has only evolved to level two, yet it has already given me third-rank soul power. If it evolves to the maximum level, wouldn't I soar straight into the sky?

Thinking of this, Wang Li felt extremely excited.

Looking further, third-rank soul power, 54%, plus… Does that mean my soul power is actually three and a half ranks? And the plus sign means it can be directly increased?

Deep blue, add points?

This even solves the problem of cultivation. How considerate. Truly considerate.

One vitality trait and one tenacity passive. These really are characteristics a plant should have. Moreover, their levels are linked to the level of the martial soul, which means the traits and passives all depend on the quality of the martial soul.

Wang Li felt a bit regretful again. Even though Blue Silver Grass had begun evolving, its martial soul quality was still too low. If it were one of those top-tier martial souls, it would definitely possess extremely powerful traits and passives.

That said, ordinary Blue Silver Grass, something as common as dirt, matched quite well with an orphan start like his. It could increase his chances of survival on the path of becoming a soul master. Only by staying alive could he go farther.

As for soul rings and soul bones, those were not things he needed to think about right now. Only after cultivating to level ten could he obtain his first soul ring.

Wang Li organized all the information he knew in his mind. First, he had a cheat. As long as he gained experience points, he could directly increase his soul power. At the same time, his martial soul had already begun to evolve, but it could not be upgraded directly using experience. Therefore, what he needed to consider was how to obtain experience points and the path of martial soul evolution.

After figuring all this out, Wang Li felt a sudden clarity.

Thinking carefully, the future Douluo Continent was actually quite dangerous. However, as long as his strength continued to grow, he could embark on a free and unrestrained adventure in this other world without needing to care too much about anything else.

Meanwhile, Su Yuntao had already awakened the martial souls of the remaining five children. As expected, they were all farm tools and Blue Silver Grass-type martial souls without any soul power. The only one with soul power, Wang Li, also had a Blue Silver Grass martial soul.

A useless martial soul was still a useless martial soul. Su Yuntao felt deeply dejected. This trip had been for nothing again. He could only place his hopes on the next village.

After解除 his martial soul possession and returning to his human form, Su Yuntao looked somewhat tired. He packed everything away into his bag, pushed open the door, and walked out.

Outside, the village chief Wang Ping and a group of anxious parents were all staring intently at Su Yuntao.

As the village chief, Wang Ping stepped forward and asked respectfully and expectantly, 

"Honored soul master, how is the talent of the children in our village?"

Su Yuntao glanced back. After seeing Wang Li, he withdrew his gaze and said with some regret, 

"There is one child with fairly good talent. Third-rank soul power. He will be able to cultivate in the future."

But before Wang Ping could be happy, Su Yuntao continued, 

"Unfortunately, his martial soul is still just Blue Silver Grass. Even with soul power, it is still Blue Silver Grass. This kind of martial soul cannot become a powerful soul master."

After saying this, Su Yuntao shook his head and left quickly. He still had to hurry to the next village.

Wang Ping's expression became extremely grim. This time was different from before. After finally having a talented child, it turned out to be a Blue Silver Grass martial soul. Hope had been given to them, only to be mercilessly taken away.

Wang Ping let out a long sigh. For ordinary commoners like them, the chance of producing a powerful martial soul was simply too low.

He weakly called out, 

"Which child has soul power?"

Hearing this, Wang Li stepped forward and said, 

"Grandpa Village Chief, it's me."

Wang Ping looked at Wang Li in surprise. 

"It's little Li…"

Then, as if he had made up his mind, he said, 

"Little Li, tell Grandpa. Do you want to become a soul master?"

Wang Li's expression was resolute. He nodded and said, 

"I do!"

Wang Ping revealed a relieved smile. 

"Good. Then I will find a way to fight for the work-study student quota shared by the nearby villages. In three months, I'll send you to the Notting Junior Soul Master Academy in the city. Little Li, cultivate well there. If you can become a soul master, our entire village will benefit."

In this world, soul masters were authorities. Soul masters were nobles. Once someone became a soul master, tax officials would no longer dare to harass the village. If someone became a powerful soul master, the entire village would be exempt from taxes.

At this moment, Wang Li's eyes shone brightly. Notting Junior Soul Master Academy was indeed a place he needed to go. He had to obtain a meditation method, learn literacy, and study knowledge about martial souls. Otherwise, being illiterate and not even recognizing basic soul beasts would be unacceptable.

That would not do at all.
