Chapter 7

Old Jack had been waiting outside for Su Yuntao to come out. Seeing him emerge, he hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Master Spirit Master, how many children awakened spirit power this year?"

"Two. One is named Tang San, with innate full spirit power. It's a pity his martial soul is Blue Silver Grass, such a trash martial soul."

"The other is your grandson. His martial soul is the same as yours, a carrot, with innate half-level spirit power. Having spirit power means he can cultivate. Congratulations. I still have to go to the village next door, so I'll be leaving first." After saying this, Su Yuntao left in a hurry.

"That's great! My family finally has someone with spirit power."

"Little Jerry, you must cultivate hard in the future. You are the first in our family to have spirit power. Grandpa believes you will definitely become a Spirit Master."

Jerry actually wanted to say, "Grandpa, you're happy too soon!", but looking at Grandpa Jack's eyes shining with hope, Jerry didn't say anything.

Perhaps Grandpa doesn't know the difficulty of cultivating with innate half-level spirit power. The reason Yu Xiaogang reached level 29 was because the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family had abundant resources. As a child in a village with no resources, it's uncertain if I can even reach level ten in this lifetime.

Looking at Old Jack's hopeful expression, a strange throb appeared in his heart: "Grandpa, I will definitely cultivate hard."

"Good child. Little San, Jerry, three months from now I will personally take you to Notting Academy. You two have grown up together since you were small; you must support each other in the future!"

Hearing Grandpa say this, Jerry felt even sadder.

Tang San clearly has cultivation techniques that can develop innate spirit power, yet he won't give them to me.

I thought a system would appear when my martial soul awakened, but there was nothing—just a carrot with innate half-level spirit power. It's too hard!

I can't let Grandpa Jack down. I still have my own advantages. I know the future plot, the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, and the immortal herbs.

By the way, immortal herbs can change my talent. How can I get them?

If I go now, I'll probably be dead the moment I enter the Sunset Forest. I'll wait for Tang San to get the immortal herbs later and share one with me. He looked at Tang San—thinking too much.

As the gap in cultivation grows, the relationship with Tang San will probably drift further and further apart. Jerry can see this clearly.

I have it too hard. Other transmigrators have all kinds of martial souls and live it up; why am I so miserable? I only know the plot but can't intervene at all! I don't even have the strength to steal their opportunities!

Sigh, I'll think of a way later! First, go to the academy to study.

Returning home, he summoned his martial soul: a fresh carrot with a few leaves on top, identical in appearance to Old Jack's.

But there is a slight difference; he can feel a trace of faint spirit power.

This trace of spirit power seems to have activated the martial soul. The martial soul is attracting spirit power from the air on its own. Although it's very slow, it can still be felt!

After the martial soul awakens, it will automatically absorb spirit power from the air.

The higher the innate spirit power, the faster it absorbs. Combined with meditation methods, it can accelerate spirit power absorption. As one ages, the martial soul's absorption of spirit power slows down, which is why the period before age 30 is the golden age for martial soul cultivation.

Looking at the carrot in front of him, he took it in his hand to see if the taste was any different from his grandpa's. He took a bite: crisp, sweet, and with a slight effect of restoring physical strength. This is an effect Old Jack's martial soul doesn't have!

It also seems to be incredibly filling. After eating half, he already felt very full. There were no other effects at all.

Forget it, no more experiments. I'll wait until I go to the academy to look at professional knowledge.

In the evening, Old Jack returned. He was originally very happy, telling everyone in the village that two people had awakened with spirit power this year.

Later, when he arrived at Tang Hao's house, he returned in a huff.

He asked, and it turned out he had argued with Tang Hao again. Tang Hao wouldn't let Little San cultivate. Jerry didn't say anything; he knew that the next day, once Tang Hao knew Tang San had twin martial souls, he would change his mind.

"Dad, does that mean you agree to let me cultivate!" Tang San said happily.

"Yes. Remember to use your hammer to protect your Blue Silver Grass in the future," Tang Hao said.

"Okay, Dad!" Tang San answered readily.

In reality, the situation later is that the Blue Silver Grass is broken, burned by fire, and frozen by ice. The hammer is perfectly fine. It's the Blue Silver Grass protecting the hammer, Tang Hao, you got it backward!

"By the way, Dad, Jerry also has spirit power!"

"Oh, this little guy is not bad. What's his situation?"

"Martial soul is a carrot, innate half-level spirit power."

"Pfft, that's truly rare. Old Jack's family finally produced someone with spirit power. Innate half-level spirit power, I reckon Old Jack will be disappointed later!" He said, his eyes filled with thick amusement.

"Is it very hard to cultivate with innate half-level spirit power? Dad!"

"Hard, very hard."

"Can we help him?"

"How to help? Talent is destined; it cannot be changed."

"Why are you thinking so much right now?"

"Can the Spirit Hall help him? But the Spirit Master who awakened him rejected Jerry."

"The Spirit Hall, they aren't stupid. Innate half-level spirit power, nobody would want that, right!" Speaking of this, a trace of hatred appeared in Tang Hao's eyes.

Tang San had been thinking about Jerry's problem, so he didn't notice.

"Little San, don't think too much. In the future, you are destined to be people from different worlds."

"I know, Dad!"

On this side, Jerry was exercising his body even more vigorously.

Knowing that his carrot could restore physical strength, he cultivated even harder. Moreover, these days Jerry discovered that his spirit power was slowly getting stronger day by day, perhaps because of the soul possession.

Jerry's spirit power was strong from the beginning, and after the martial soul awakened, his spirit power increased, which is why Jerry could clearly feel it.

"Little San, let's duel!"

"Why?"

"My training is very effective now. I want to beat you up, otherwise, there won't be a chance after we start cultivating!"

"What makes you think you can beat me? Is it your muscular build?"

"Judging by your physique, you're just a weakling."

"I'll just say one thing: you can't catch me!"

"If you have the guts, don't run! Stand and fight!"

"Do you think I'm stupid?"

"If I think you're stupid, will you agree to stand and fight without running!"

"Can't be bothered with you. If you have the guts, catch me first."

Tang San had been with Jerry for a long time and had been completely spoiled by Jerry. Now, his words were sharp everywhere!

Actually, Tang San really didn't want to fight Jerry. The internal energy he practiced was weaker than external energy in the early stages. Jerry was as strong as a little calf now; standing and fighting was clearly asking for trouble!

Tang San knew that Jerry had been practicing punches and kicks. He had made a sandbag before. Although Jerry didn't know any martial arts, he just hammered and kicked it hard.

Yesterday, he saw with his own eyes Jerry kick that sandbag to pieces. Tang San's own body was still very weak; getting kicked once felt unbearable. It's just that Jerry's speed was too slow, and he couldn't catch him at all.

He just wouldn't fight Jerry, and Jerry couldn't do anything about him!
