Douluo Continent: Awakening the Original Martial Soul at the Start.

Chapter 13 Intending to Join the Spirit Hall

"I hope to see you in two weeks!"

At the gate of Ze'an City, Qian Renxue left behind a message and a token before heading towards Wuhun City.

"Fei'er, it seems our family is about to get into a big mess!" Li Ming said solemnly after Qian Renxue and her group left.

Their family is just a merchant family. Now that Li Fei's theories have been discovered by the Spirit Hall, they are powerless to resist. Moreover, there are definitely spies planted by various forces within the Spirit Hall. It won't be long before these forces find out, and then the Li family will be in real danger.

"There's no other way; we can only join a faction for protection!" Li Fei said in a deep voice.

"Fei'er, you mean the Spirit Hall! That's why you agreed to be that saintess's best man!" Li Ming immediately understood.

"That's right! Currently, the only one who can protect us on the entire continent is the Spirit Hall, and only the Spirit Hall can simultaneously block all other forces from being threatened. As long as Xiao Fan and I demonstrate enough genius and bring more benefits to the Spirit Hall, I believe they will protect our family!" Li Fei said solemnly.

He had considered making the theory public, but that would offend the Spirit Hall. If the theory of absorbing super-limit spirit rings were made public, the entire spirit master world would definitely be thrown into turmoil, which was something the Spirit Hall, which was trying to maintain the balance of the continent, did not want to see.

The Spirit Hall is not intolerant of geniuses; in fact, they are the most tolerant of geniuses on the entire continent. The ones who truly cannot tolerate geniuses are the families and major powers that monopolize knowledge. They do not want to see another family riding on their heads in the future.

Moreover, any power or family that obtains this theory would not want it to be revealed, because this theory can guarantee their family or power will be strong for thousands of years and ensure their status in the world of soul masters.

The Spirit Hall wouldn't want such a force or family to exist, so the only option is the Spirit Hall itself; only the Spirit Hall can...

"Fei'er, you're really going to have a hard time in the future!" Li Ming and Jiang Xin looked at Li Fei with guilt. They couldn't protect their son and had to sacrifice him to protect them.

"It's not bitter! In the end, I caused this myself, and I have to take responsibility for it!" Li Fei shook his head.

"Hey! Let's go home first, we can talk about it when we get there!"

Li Ming sighed and turned to walk towards the manor.

Back home, the family showed no joy at obtaining the spirit ring; instead, they were filled with sorrow and sat in complete silence in the living room.

"Xin'er, we can't stay in Ze'an City anymore. Once Fei'er's theory is leaked, our family will become the target of everyone's criticism. Fei'er is right. For the safety of our family, we have no other choice but to join the Spirit Hall now!" After a long while, Li Ming spoke up.

"I understand. I will contact my business partners in the next few days to sell our assets in Ze'an City and move our whole family to Wuhun City. It should be much safer there!" Jiang Xin nodded and replied seriously.

Seeing his parents, whose smiles had faded, Li Fei knew it was all because of him, and he felt a pang of guilt, clenching his fists tightly.

"It's all because of strength. If my strength had reached the level of a Title Douluo or even a Super Douluo, this situation would never have occurred."

At this moment, Li Fei gained a new understanding of the Douluo Continent where strength reigns supreme. In such a world, only strength is fundamental; everything else is meaningless.

He secretly resolved to become a Title Douluo, or even a god, to change the situation where he could only compromise when facing the strong.

The manor remained brightly lit throughout the night, and no one slept.

In an antique-style bedroom, Li Fei sat cross-legged on the bed, his mind immersed in his body, sensing the flow of soul power within his first soul ring.

Since Gluttony is a passive soul skill, Li Fei could feel that his soul power, which was originally in a simple cycle, had two new trajectories. After his soul power circulated along these two new trajectories, he could feel a very comfortable feeling in his spleen and stomach, and his soul power also felt more substantial.

However, there are many places where these two new trajectories feel blocked, preventing the soul power from completing its circulation and the increase in the strength of the soul power is not obvious.

"In my previous life, traditional Chinese medicine divided the human body into five elements. It seems that the five internal organs, meridians, and bones are all within the scope of the five elements. Now that I have obtained the soul ring of the Earth-attribute Gluttonous Pig, my soul power must circulate in the meridians represented by the Earth attribute in order to maintain the passive soul skill of Gluttony to generate Earth-attribute soul power."

"If that's the case, even if I don't know the location of the eight extraordinary meridians in the human body, can I still find the location of all the meridians in the body by collecting the five elemental attribute soul skills, so that I can open up all the meridians in the body?"

"I never expected that just collecting all the elemental soul rings would bring such a surprise!"

Li Fei's face immediately lit up with joy. With this discovery, his future path began to become clear, which also gave him his first goal: to open up all the meridians in his body.

He began to actively activate his soul power, following the new trajectory of his soul power, constantly using his powerful soul power to impact the blocked points, making an effort to open up his meridians.

The next morning, to Shen Chenyan's astonishment, Li Fei ate three times more food than usual, then rushed to the training ground, picked up a 500-pound tungsten steel rod, and began to train.

Before long, Li Fan also came over to forge. Judging from his dark circles, he hadn't slept well. From then on, he didn't choose the tungsten steel rod for forging, but instead used his martial soul, the wrought iron rod. At this time, the wrought iron rod had changed, and the originally dark rod body now had golden patterns.

"First Soul Skill - Limit-Breaking Weapon!"

Li Fan let out a low shout, and the staff instantly turned golden, its weight also increased significantly. He began to use the staff techniques he had learned, and the sound of air being cut rang out continuously.

This was Li Fei's advice to him: to unleash the power of the Breaking Limit Weapon Evolution Martial Soul, he had to use it frequently so that the Martial Soul could be gradually transformed during the repair process by the metal-attribute soul power.

After two hours of training, the two brothers sat down on the ground to drink tea and recover their strength.

"Brother, are you really going to be that saintess's best man?!" Li Fan asked, taking a sip of tea, somewhat reluctantly.

"Okay!" Li Fan nodded. Seeing the reluctance and worry in Li Fan's eyes, he reached out and rubbed his head, comforting him, "Don't worry, I'm just going to help Her Highness the Holy Maiden with her training plan. Nothing will happen."

"Will you come again?!" Tears welled up in Li Fan's eyes.

"Of course I'll come back. I can't bear to leave you and Mom and Dad!" Li Fei said with a smile.

"Then you'll definitely come back soon!"

"Yes! Definitely!"
