Douluo Continent: Martial Soul Master Ball, Beauty, Please Stay!

Welcome!

As soon as Jiang Yi stepped into Jubao Pavilion, the maid waiting at the door immediately stepped forward and gave him a professional, polite smile.

Jubao Pavilion is the largest Soul Master shop in Shrek City, selling all kinds of items related to Soul Masters and Soul Guides.

From a distance, the Treasure Pavilion is over twenty meters tall, with a magnificent golden exterior, resembling a treasure basin.

"Honorable guest, what would you like?"

The maid's movements were gentle, and her voice was soft and soothing, making one feel as if bathed in a spring breeze.

"I need to buy some beast blood, please."

Jiang Yi nodded slightly.

The Treasure Pavilion is actually a Shrek Academy property; its items are expensive, but they do have some good stuff.

Especially for the students of the academy, there are more or less some discounts.

"Please follow me."

The maid walked ahead to lead the way.

Jiang Yi followed behind her, his eyes also scanning the surrounding shops.

There are still many items on this level, mostly special metals or low-grade spiritual herbs and medicines.

"Are these all soul tools?"

Jiang Yi stopped in front of a row of cabinets and raised an eyebrow as he looked at the various weapons inside.

"That's right! These are all produced by the Shrek Academy's Soul Tool Institute, absolutely top-notch quality on the mainland..."

When the maid saw Jiang Yi stop, she showed no dissatisfaction whatsoever. Instead, she enthusiastically introduced him to the others.

They also take a cut of what customers buy. In the Treasure Pavilion, besides soul bones and high-grade pills, soul tools are the most valuable items.

"It's alright, let's keep going."

Jiang Yi shook his head and looked away.

The value of these soul tools seems a bit inflated, with most starting at thousands of gold soul coins, which is completely unaffordable for soul masters of the same level.

However, the first thing he thought of was Huo Yutong's White Tiger Dagger, which was a level 5 soul tool.

Based on the market rates here, she'd be worth at least tens of thousands of gold soul coins, making her a hidden little rich woman.

"Okay, this way please."

The maid nodded slightly and continued walking.

Soon, the two arrived at the special area for soul beast materials.

Animal blood, animal bones, animal claws, animal hides... everything is available, and each item is marked with a detailed year and origin.

Jiang Yi paused at the counter for a moment, carefully selecting two types of thousand-year-old beast blood with wind and thunder attributes.

"This...and this, one of each, please."

"Okay, esteemed guest, please follow me to the front desk to settle your bill."

The maidservant swiftly took out the jade bottle, wrapped it properly, and led him to the front counter.

"A total of two thousand five hundred gold soul coins."

"Ah."

Jiang Yi settled the bill decisively, put the jade bottle into his soul tool, and turned to leave the Treasure Pavilion.

……

As night deepened, the new students finally finished their first day of school.

The entire dormitory building was brightly lit, filled with a cacophony of noise, a testament to Shrek Academy's inhuman teaching methods.

In the evening, the college also organized a social party, but due to the day's fatigue, not many freshmen participated.

Dormitory 110.

"Crack!"

The door was gently latched shut. Jiang Yi looked at the empty dormitory room, which he was already used to.

His dorm room was empty, and he was the only one living there, without any roommates.

This makes things much more convenient.

"Little Blue! Come out."

Jiang Yi reached out and made a grasping motion, and a purple Master Ball appeared in his palm. The next moment, a beam of blue light flew out.

"Chirp~"

The Gale Falcon appeared, letting out an affectionate call to Jiang Yi, and nuzzled his shoulder with its fluffy head.

However, due to the cramped dormitory, the little blue light already took up almost half of the room just by standing there.

"I'm sorry you had to make do! I'll see if I can get you a bigger place after a while..."

Jiang Yi ruffled its feathers with a hint of helplessness.

Although Gale Falcon wasn't the strongest, it was still his first pet, and he had a special bond with it.

As for Tianmeng, she is different. She has complete thinking and cognition, and is more like a person than a pet.

"Chirp~"

Xiao Lan responded cheerfully.

Although it cannot hear its owner's words, it can sense the other's emotions through the contract between them.

That warmth, trust, and a hint of apology.

"Drink this!"

Jiang Yi took out two jade bottles from his soul tool, which contained beast blood of different colors.

One bottle is as green as the wind, the other as blue as thunder.

These two types of essence blood come from two thousand-year-old soul beasts and are products of the Treasure Pavilion's condensation. They are usually used for alchemy.

But for Jiang Yi, it was the perfect tool to purify the bloodline of the Gale Falcon.

Through his years of exploration, he has also discovered some special characteristics of the soul beasts in Douluo Continent.

One of their biggest characteristics is that their strength naturally increases with age.

Simply put, soul beasts don't have a bloodline bottleneck; their strength increases as they age.

A 100,000-year-old Blue Silver Emperor may not necessarily have lived for 100,000 years, but a 100,000-year-old Blue Silver Grass is definitely a 100,000-year-old Blue Silver Emperor.

This is also why the cultivation level of a soul beast is usually calculated in years.

For soul beasts, bloodline talent primarily translates to increased combat power and cultivation speed.

According to Jiang Yi's estimation, this might be a benefit brought about by the fall of the dragon race, as all soul beasts have dragon bloodlines to some extent.

However, Jiang Yi did not intend to delve into this issue, since the absence of a bloodline bottleneck was a great thing for him.

"Gudu~"

The swift-wind falcon opened its beak, grabbed the jade bottle, and swallowed it whole.

The next moment, two powerful blood vessels rose from its abdomen and flowed through its body along the meridians.

It spread its wings, its feathers glowing with a faint fluorescence, tightly wrapping itself up like a blue cocoon in the process of gestation.

While the Gale Falcon was absorbing the essence blood, Jiang Yi was not idle either; he sat cross-legged to the side.

Within his dantian, streams of qi and blood energy also surged forth.

This is the special feature of the Master Ball Martial Soul: the improvement of the pet will, to a certain extent, benefit Jiang Yi.

Although there was some loss in the process, it can be considered as providing Jiang Yi with an external cultivation accelerator.

As the number of pets increases, his cultivation speed will become faster and faster.

However, this also presents a new hidden danger: Jiang Yi's physical condition cannot keep up with his cultivation level.

Tianmeng is the best example—

She had a million years of cultivation, but because Jiang Yi's body was too weak, she could only seal her own origin and gradually integrate it.

If Jiang Yi's body were a divine body, it would definitely be possible to pull him to the Limit Douluo level in a short period of time.

Even so, the mere existence of Tianmeng is enough to make Jiang Yi comparable to those top geniuses with innate full soul power.

This is one of the reasons why he went to great lengths to intercept Tianmeng.

……

Downstairs in the dormitory building.

In the rocking chair, Moon was resting with his eyes closed.

Suddenly, he slightly opened his eyes, his murky gaze glancing in a certain direction on the first floor.

"Interesting! A very peculiar martial soul... a promising talent."

Moon muttered to himself, a slight smile appearing on his lips.

This kid's aura is actually rising at the same frequency as the soul beast I've raised. How interesting.

If a subdued soul beast can be upgraded again... then it's not surprising that this kid has a thousand-year soul ring.

He narrowed his eyes, thinking about the information about this kid, and his eyes seemed thoughtful.

"What a lively session!"

Moon smiled with relief and lay back down in the chair behind him.

He doesn't usually investigate student dormitories; he was just drawn to that unique aura.

However, he seemed to remember something else, rubbed his forehead with a headache, and turned his gaze to a certain direction on the third floor.

"Sigh, what a tangled mess! I should have known better than to let this little guy join the Tang Clan; now we're all entangled in this mess..."

Beibei is the most outstanding of all his offspring, but now she's trapped by her feelings.

But Jiang Yi is also a student of Shrek Academy, and as the master of the Sea God Pavilion, he naturally cannot interfere too much.

"Never mind, children and grandchildren have their own blessings..."

Moon shook his head, deciding not to think about it anymore.

He himself doesn't have many years left to live. He believes in the wisdom of future generations. Didn't he get through the same thing back then?

Chapter 23 Tang Ya's Imported Breakfast! An Experienced Person, Mu En...

The next day, early in the morning.

As the first rays of dawn fell, Tianmeng crawled out of Jiang Yi's arms.

“Last night, an old man kept staring this way. Be careful, he's quite strong…”

Tianmeng sat cross-legged on the ground, absorbing the purple energy of heaven and earth while giving a reminder.

That old guy's mental strength was even stronger than hers, so she didn't dare to hide it casually, lest her abnormality be discovered.

"understood."

Jiang Yi opened his eyes and gently exhaled a breath of turbid air.

This was intentional on his part; otherwise, putting Little Blue into the Master Ball would have been the same, but there was no need for it.

While Shrek Academy may be a bit eccentric, it's relatively normal when it comes to treating its own geniuses.

Especially now that Mu En is still alive, if he doesn't make his presence felt, things will be different once Yan Shaozhe takes over.

"Yes, it's good that you know what I mean."

Tianmeng nodded slightly and said no more.

This master is extremely mysterious; he can even readily reveal secrets about soul beasts that she has only ever heard of.

Regardless of Tianmeng's continued cultivation of the Purple Demon Eye, Jiang Yi turned to look at Xiao Lan behind him.
