Douluo Continent: The Five Elements Lock Martial Soul, Five Elements Divine Might Transformation

The teacher took the certificate and glanced at it, then said with considerable surprise, "Oh? Another one with innate full soul power? I never expected that our little Notting Academy would have three geniuses with innate full soul power in one day. This is truly a great blessing."

At this point, the teacher's expression became much kinder, and she said with a smile, "Hello, little friend, my surname is Su, and I am the director of the teaching affairs office. You can just call me Director Su."

"Come on, I'll take you to your dorm right away."

"Okay, thank you, Director Su!"

After saying that, the two arrived at Dormitory Building 7. Director Su said, "Lingyun, this is your dormitory. Also, this is for you."

As he spoke, Director Su took out a book and handed it to Ling Yun, saying, "This is the academy's beginner meditation method. It will guide you on how to practice meditation. You must study it carefully."

"Yes, Director Su, I will do my best!"

Ling Yun took the meditation method, then walked into Dormitory 7 and symbolically greeted the students there.

"Hello everyone, my name is Ling Yun, and I am a work-study student from Wuxing Village."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a rosy-cheeked little girl who was very pretty and looked adorable.

There is only one girl in Dormitory 7, and without a doubt, she is the 100,000-year-old rogue rabbit, Xiao Wu.

After shifting his gaze from Xiao Wu, he looked at the ordinary-looking boy next to her and thought to himself: If I'm not mistaken, this child must be Tang San, the protagonist of Douluo Continent.

Just as he was sizing up Tang San, Xiao Wu had already come up in front of him.

"Hello, my name is Xiao Wu, the 'Wu' in 'dancing'. I'm also the leader of Dormitory 7."

At this point, Xiao Wu suddenly laughed, "Speaking of which, there's a rule in Dormitory Seven: newcomers have to fight to decide who's the boss here. How about it, shall we?"

"No need. I'm not interested in the position of leader. It's more suitable for Sister Xiaowu to be the leader."

"Hehe, you're smart to know what's good for you!"

Lingyun's greeting of "Sister Xiaowu" pleased Xiaowu greatly, and she immediately hopped away like a little rabbit.

No, she was originally a little rabbit.

Then Ling Yun greeted the others in Dormitory 7. Everyone was surprised to learn that Ling Yun had innate full soul power, including Tang San and Xiao Wu.

After chatting with a few children for a while, Ling Yun bought a quilt from a shop outside the academy, and then took out the meditation method to prepare for cultivation.

"I see. Meditation involves using your martial spirit to absorb free energy in the air, converting it into soul power, which is then absorbed by the body. It seems quite simple..."

After reading the entire book on meditation, Lingyun immediately sat cross-legged on the bed and began his first meditation session.

Perhaps it was because his meditation technique was too low-level, or perhaps it was because this was Ling Yun's first time practicing meditation, that he was unable to find the knack for it.

It took Ling Yun a full hour before he felt a faint energy flowing into his body through the pores of his skin.

Although the energy was extremely weak, he was certain that it was not a hallucination.

Overjoyed, he quickly followed the instructions recorded in the meditation method to compress the energy and condense it into his own soul power.

Finally, a wisp of extremely weak soul power flowed along Ling Yun's meridians, entered his dantian, and then disappeared.

Ling Yun understood that this was because he was born with full soul power, and his cultivation had reached a bottleneck. Only after obtaining a soul ring could the wisp of soul power he had just cultivated manifest itself.

"A spirit ring! I must obtain my first spirit ring!"

Ling Yun said that whether it was to improve his cultivation or to study the mysteries of the Five Elemental Locks, he had to obtain his first soul ring as soon as possible.

With this in mind, Ling Yun calmed down and continued to cultivate. As he continued to meditate, he could clearly feel that his soul power possessed the five attributes of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.

The interaction of the five elements not only enhanced his soul power but also strengthened his physique invisibly.

The night passed quickly, and early the next morning, Ling Yun woke up from his meditation, left his dormitory, and went to the teaching office to find Director Su.

Good morning, Director Su.

"Oh? It's Ling Yun."

Director Su greeted him with a smile. After all, he was born with full soul power, and Director Su had a deep impression of him.

"Lingyun, is there something you need from me so early in the morning?"

Ling Yun replied, "Director Su, I would like to ask you to take me to obtain my first spirit ring!"

"To acquire the first spirit ring?"

After pondering for a moment, Director Su nodded in agreement, "No problem. There's a Soul Hunting Forest near Notting City. Let's have breakfast first, and then we'll set off!"

"okay!"

Ling Yun smiled and said that after thinking about it for the past two days, he had decided what kind of spirit beast he would hunt for his first spirit ring.

Just as he was about to go to the cafeteria for breakfast with Director Su, he saw the office door being pushed open forcefully. Then, an old-looking man with short, buzz-cut hair walked in, followed by a little boy. It was none other than Tang San.

Upon seeing Tang San, Ling Yun guessed the identity of the middle-aged man: it was none other than the useless master Yu Xiaogang.

Chapter 3: Insulting oneself twice in one sentence

"Oh, isn't this the master? What a rare guest!"

Director Su was the first to greet him. Although he didn't like people like Yu Xiaogang who freeloaded at the college, he knew that Yu was a friend of the dean, so he decided to avoid getting too close to him and not offend him.

"May I ask what brings you here, Master?"

"My student's soul power has reached level ten, and I need to take him to obtain his first soul ring, so I'm here to ask Director Su for leave."

Yu Xiaogang pointed at Tang San, his face filled with pride and excitement, as if to say: "See? Do you all see that? My student has innate full soul power!"

"This child is truly fortunate to be a disciple of a master, hehe..."

Director Su gave a wry smile. On the surface, he was blessing Tang San, but in his heart, he already felt that the child was probably ruined.

"I've approved Tang San's vacation. It just so happens that I'm also taking Ling Yun to get a spirit ring. It's worth mentioning that he also has innate full spirit power."

Director Su chuckled, his face filled with excitement.

"Three innate geniuses with full innate soul power have arrived at the academy in just one day! What a blessing for Notting Academy! Haha!"

"Oh, this child also has innate full soul power?"

Yu Xiaogang's eyes lit up as if he had discovered a priceless treasure, and he looked at Ling Yun with a smile.

"Little friend, what is your martial spirit? Show it to me. Also, would you like to become my disciple?"

Upon hearing this, Ling Yun frowned. He had long anticipated that his talent might attract the attention of Yu Xiaogang, this useless master, and immediately declined politely.

"Thank you, Gangzi... cough cough, thank you for the invitation, Master, but there's no need for me to become your disciple. My martial soul is just a metal bracelet, a useless martial soul, not worth mentioning."

"Just a metal bracelet?" Yu Xiaogang was taken aback for a moment, then continued to invite, "Then you should become my disciple even more. With my guidance, even if you have a useless martial soul, you can become a powerful soul master!"

One of my theories on martial spirits is: there are no useless martial spirits, only useless spirit masters!

Upon hearing this, Ling Yun couldn't help but laugh. He had to think through all the sad and painful things from his past life before he could suppress his laughter.

There are no useless martial souls, only useless soul masters. Isn't that saying the same thing twice?

Thinking of this, Ling Yun couldn't help but ask in return, "Well said. According to the master's theory, you must be a powerful Soul Master, right?"

May I ask what your martial soul is, Master? What is your soul power level? Judging from your age, your cultivation should be at least a three-ring Soul Master, right?

"Uh……"

Yu Xiaogang was speechless. His martial soul was a boar beast that could do nothing but fart. His innate soul power was only half a level. If nothing unexpected happened, he would never be able to break through level 30 and become a Soul Master in his lifetime. This had always been his pain.

Director Su, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but chuckle upon hearing this. Ling Yun's words were practically hitting Yu Xiaogang's sore spots like crazy.

"Hehe, Lingyun, the master's soul power is only level 29. As for his martial soul... well, let's not talk about it."

Director Su explained with a smile that Tang San had already been completely fooled, and he couldn't just stand by and watch a genius like Ling Yun be fooled by Yu Xiaogang as well.

"Oh~ so the master's cultivation level is only level twenty-nine~"

"The Soul Master who awakened my Martial Soul was also a two-ring Great Soul Master, but he was much younger than you."

Ling Yun spoke in a sarcastic tone, then smiled knowingly.

"Master, you should focus on breaking through to level 30 first. As for becoming an apprentice, we can discuss that after you become a powerful Soul Master."

Now that I've become your disciple, whether you can even help me obtain my first spirit ring is a question! Director Su, let's go.

"you!"

Yu Xiaogang was furious and wanted to refute Ling Yun, but he couldn't bring himself to say anything. In the end, he could only watch helplessly as Ling Yun and Director Su left together.

Seeing Yu Xiaogang pounding his chest in frustration, Tang San stepped forward to comfort him, saying, "Teacher, calm down, don't get too angry and ruin your health."

Thinking that he still had Tang San, Yu Xiaogang felt a little better and said coldly, "Little San, your teacher will definitely train you into a powerful Soul Master and prove to the world that my theory is correct."

"Yes, teacher, I believe in you. I will definitely be stronger than Lingyun in the future!"

Tang San raised the corners of his mouth and smiled. In his opinion, whether the teacher was powerful or not was not important, since the master's strength could not be passed on to the disciple. What was important were the theories.

Once you grasp the truth, it's hard not to become a powerful Soul Master.

Thinking of this, Tang San sneered inwardly: Ling Yun, one day you will regret what you did today!

……

After leaving the office, Ling Yun had breakfast with Director Su, and then took a carriage to the Soul Hunting Forest outside the city.

Half an hour later, the two arrived at the outer edge of the Soul Hunting Forest. Director Su, while keeping a watchful eye on his surroundings, asked questions.

"By the way, Ling Yun, we still don't know what kind of soul beast you want to hunt?"

"I want to hunt a wood-attribute soul beast as my first soul ring, preferably a plant soul beast with strong vitality and the higher its age, the better."

Ling Yun replied that, according to his guess, only by obtaining a soul ring of the corresponding attribute can the power of the five elements within the Five Elements Lock be activated, thereby transforming into the corresponding beast-type warrior.

Therefore, he decided to hunt a plant-type spirit beast as his first spirit ring. With Director Su's strength, hunting a four-hundred-year-old plant-type spirit beast should not be a problem.

"A wood-attribute plant-type spirit beast?" Director Su was taken aback and asked doubtfully, "Ling Yun, isn't your spirit beast a metal bracelet? I think it would be better to hunt metal-attribute spirit beasts."

"Director Su, you may not know this, but my martial soul is not a metal bracelet, but the Five Elements Lock, which can store the energy of the five elements: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. Therefore, I can even absorb the soul rings of plant-type soul beasts."

In addition, the age limit of the spirit ring itself will limit the power of the spirit skill. Even for a titled Douluo, his first spirit skill will not be very powerful.

Therefore, he plans to acquire powerful attribute spirit rings such as metal, fire, and water later, as these attribute spirit rings must be at least thousand-year spirit rings.

"I see."

After listening to Ling Yun's explanation, Director Su nodded thoughtfully, then walked into the depths of the Soul Hunting Forest to search for high-age plant soul beasts.

With his strength, dealing with a plant-type soul beast that is several hundred years old would be a piece of cake.
