Douluo Continent: Reborn as Tang San's Cousin

Chapter 2 Twin Martial Souls

Tang Nianxiao and Tang San were both in the kitchen. Tang San was washing vegetables, and Tang Nianxiao was chopping vegetables.

Upon hearing Old Jack's voice, they turned to look at Tang Hao, who was lying on a chair drinking.

Tang Hao said coldly, "Go ahead, don't delay making lunch."

Tang Nianxiao nodded, washed his hands with Tang San, took a handkerchief to wipe Tang San's hands, and then walked out the door with him.

The Spirit Hall in the village is located in the center of the village; it is a slightly larger wooden house.

Inside the wooden house stood the children who were about to undergo their martial spirit awakening.

Tang San and Tang Nianxiao stood on the far right.

The children in the village didn't think much of Tang San and Tang Nianxiao because Tang Hao was very poor.

However, Tang San and Tang Nianxiao were not too willing to play with the other children. After all, they had lived two lives and would rather use their spare time to cultivate.

Tang San and Tang Nianxiao shared similar views, and Tang Nianxiao had read Douluo Continent and knew Tang San's origins, so the two got along very well, and Tang San also liked this older brother very much.

After all, Tang San had no relatives of the same age in his previous life, and he wasn't very close to his father in this life. Instead, the person he was closest to was the older brother in front of him.

Standing before them was a young man in his early twenties, with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, dressed in the uniform of a member of the Spirit Hall, looking at the children in front of him.

He had the character "魂" (soul) on his chest, and a badge with three long swords engraved on his left chest.

This indicates that he is a third-tier Soul Master, with the title of Great Soul Master, and his longsword represents combat; he belongs to the Battle Soul Master category.

When Old Jack saw the badge, he immediately understood the other person's rank and bowed respectfully to him.

"Respected Master of Battle Spirits, hello! Thank you for taking care of these children!"

The young man's expression held a hint of pride. After a slight return of the greeting, he began to speak.

"Let's begin then. Don't have too high expectations. This month I've already awakened martial souls for the children in six villages, but not a single one of them has soul power."

Old Jack sighed, indicating that he understood. "But our village once produced a Soul Saint...maybe...but it's really too difficult for ordinary people to awaken and become a Soul Master."

The young man's interest was piqued slightly by the village's legends.

"Alright, go wait outside."

Old Jack nodded, told the children to listen to Master Zhanhun, and then went out.

Old Jack left, leaving only a row of children standing there.

They looked at the young man in front of them, and they were all a little nervous.

The young man smiled slightly. "My name is Su Yuntao, a level 26 Great Soul Master, and I will be your guide."

"From now on, remember this: no matter what happens, don't be afraid!"

As he spoke, he took out six black stones and tossed them into the air.

One by one, stones were embedded in the pits in the ground.

Tang Nianxiao then noticed that although the ground was made of wood, there was a small pit at each of the six corners of an open space, where six black stones were embedded.

A faint line was carved between each pair of corners, connecting them, leaving a circle in the middle, which was probably where a person would stand.

Immediately afterwards, Su Yuntao gestured for the first child on his left to stand in the circle.

In this way, Tang San and Tang Nianxiao ended up at the very end of the list.

The child was somewhat frightened, his body trembling as he stood in the center of the circle.

"Don't be afraid. If you are, you can close your eyes."

Su Yuntao spoke softly, and then, to the astonishment of all the children, he gave a low shout.

"Lone Wolf, possess me!"

A burst of azure light suddenly erupted from his body, his hair color abruptly turned gray, and his fur and claws clung to his body like phantoms.

To his horror, a huge phantom wolf head appeared above his head.

Su Yuntao's eyes had turned a ghostly green, and the sharp claws extending from his five fingers gleamed with a cold light.

A white halo and a yellow halo lit up from beneath his feet.

The boy standing in the circle was closest to Su Yuntao and received the strongest pressure.

He screamed in fear, fell to the ground, and scrambled to his feet to run away.

But as soon as he turned around, Su Yuntao's claws hooked his collar.

A pair of small feet were running in the air, but it was of no use.

"I told you not to be afraid, this is just my martial spirit possessing me. If you can also awaken your beast martial spirit, you will be like me."

The children instantly stopped being afraid, and they all looked at Su Yuntao with excited eyes, as if they had been injected with chicken blood.

Su Yuntao put the boy down and helped him stand up straight again.

"Awakening is about to begin; all you need to do is feel it with your heart."

The boy nodded nervously, standing there trying to appear calm.

The latest novel is first published here!

Tang Nianxiao watched all of this with great interest. Although he had watched some anime, this was the first time he had ever actually seen a Soul Master's Martial Soul in person.

Su Yuntao slapped the ground with his hand, and his soul power quickly flowed into the six black stones.

The black stones began to turn gold, and the golden energy formed a six-pointed star along the patterns etched on the ground, instantly enveloping the child.

The child's body seemed to be trembling slightly.

"Extend your right hand." Su Yuntao's bright green eyes were fixed on the child.

The child instinctively stretched out his right hand, and soon, a miniature sickle floated in his palm.

"A weapon spirit, not bad. Let's see if it has spirit power."

Su Yuntao handed over the crystal ball, letting the child retract his martial spirit first, and then placed his right hand on the crystal ball.

The crystal ball did not emit any light.

Su Yuntao said disappointedly, "Without soul power, you cannot become a soul master. Go back to your position, next."

The next child then stepped forward.

But one child after another disappointed Su Yuntao greatly.

It wasn't a weapon spirit like a hoe or sickle; it was just ordinary blue silver grass, and it didn't have any spirit power.

Soon it was Tang San and Tang Nianxiao's turn.

Tang Nianxiao gently nudged Tang San, "You go first."

Tang San nodded and stepped into the circle.

Just like before, Su Yuntao once again channeled soul power into the black stone.

Tang San, like the other children, raised his right hand, and the same Blue Silver Grass appeared in his palm as the previous girl.

Su Yuntao sighed. There was only one child left. It seemed that there were no Soul Masters in this seventh village who could awaken and cultivate.

But Tang Nianxiao could see clearly that a small black hammer had also appeared in Tang San's other hand.

However, Tang San's left hand was hanging down at his side with his palm facing backward, so no one else could see it except where he was standing.

Tang Nianxiao watched this scene with some excitement.

The third party really does have twin martial souls!
