Soul Land III: Legend of the Dragon King

Chapter 15 – Ranked 10th

Countless blue light spots gathered from around him, quietly drilling into his body and spreading out all over.

Tang Wulin felt as if he was drenched in a sea of blue as countless small voices enveloped and called out to him.

The distinctive aroma of Bluesilver Grass permeated into every cell in his body. The soul force within his dantian took on a warm feeling as it began to unfold.

In Tang Wulin's perception, everything began to turn into a strange blue color. The scent of Bluesilver Grass was present everywhere in his body.

A faint golden line lit up on his forehead with the same pattern as before, extending outward. After extending all over his skin, the golden streaks slowly disappeared.

His body shone as he sat meditating there. One moment it was a faint blue color and in the next moment the light that shone from his body had a trace of gold.

Early morning.

“Lin Lin, Lin Lin ...” The anxious voice of Lang Yue resounded in the streets.

Inside the small garden, Tang Wulin rose from his cross-legged sitting position and slowly woke up from his meditative state. The morning dew soaked his collar, but at this moment he felt an indescribable feeling permeate his entire body.

“Lin Lin, Lin Lin ...” Different sounds Lang Yue heard.

“Bu, I'm here.” Tang Wulin hurriedly responded as he descended from the courtyard and ran.

As she rushed to answer her mother's call, she could feel that her body was much more relaxed than before.

“Nak, why are you here? You almost worried me to death. ” Lang Yue said firmly as she examined her son.

“Sorry mom. I was meditating in the garden. I think I have broken through to rank 10. ” Although Tang Wulin was unsure, the changes in his body indicated that he had most likely made a breakthrough.

Lang Yue gaped for a moment before he lowered his head to check on his son. Tang Wulin's height had already reached his shoulders. Even though his body was somewhat damp, his skin was still sparkling with a jewel glint and he was looking at him with a pair of excited large eyes.

“Listen to mother's words. Your safety is the most important thing. Come home. I'll cook you breakfast. ” Lang Yue kissed his head a few times before he held her hand and drove her home.

“You have made a breakthrough?” When Tang Ziran found out that her son had made a breakthrough, she was extremely happy. “Because you think you have made a breakthrough, we will go to the academy today and test you. If you really have made a breakthrough, then I'll invite you to buy a spirit soul tomorrow. ”

“Life dad!” Tang Wulin cheered.

“Na’er, what's up? Are you not happy for your sister? ” Tang Wulin was so excited, but he found that unexpectedly, Na’er was a little different today. Normally he would pamper himself with breakfast so early in the morning, but he just sat there blankly today. None of his joy touched him.

“Ah? There's no problem! Congratulations brother! ” Na’er gave her a sweet smile before enjoying her breakfast.

Tang Wulin thought he was down because he had no martial soul, so he did not pursue the topic.

In fact, Tang Wulin's guess about his breakthrough was correct. After arriving at the academy, he told Master Lin Ximeng about his feelings and was then taken to undergo a soul force test. The apparatus showed that his soul force had indeed reached rank 10.

Every ten ranks soul force, a Soul Master would need a soul ring to break through to the next rank. They could kill soul beasts to obtain soul rings, but soul beasts were too rare right now. It was much more common for people to choose the second method, to obtain spirit souls produced by the Spirit Pagoda.

“Tang Wulin, have your family immediately take you to Spirit Pagoda to buy spirit soul. Once you fuse with the spirit soul, you will become a Soul Master. The Official Soul Master can receive a salary of 1000 Federal Coins each month. That should be enough for your high school fees in the secondary academy. ” Lin Ximeng urged him.

Tang Wulin nodded in excitement. “I already have enough money to buy a spirit soul, Master Lin. I'll buy it tomorrow. ”

Lin Ximeng nodded with a smile. “Good. I'll ask for leave for you tomorrow. Hope you get the best in getting a satisfying spirit soul. ”

“Thank you Master.”

After becoming a Soul Master, he would receive a monthly salary. Although the middle academy was obligated, his monthly salary of a thousand coins was barely enough to pay for his daily expenses. He had to leave Glorybound City to attend the middle academy. With the monthly allowance, he no longer needed to use his parents' money. If he was able to cultivate into a Soul Grandmaster, his monthly salary would increase even more!

Tang Wulin was overjoyed, step by step he was getting closer to his dream.

If it was another child, they might not be able to control their emotions, but Tang Wulin's heart had grown extremely stable after three years of being faked. That night, he went to Mang Tian's workshop and completed his forgery task. Only when he finished came home.

As soon as Tang Ziran received the notification from the academy, he left and requested a day off the next day, so that he could bring Tang Wulin to buy spirit souls. Lang Yue had asked for a day off as well, but since there were too many jobs, his request was not approved.

“Na’er, why are you so dreamy today?” Tang Wulin gave a puzzled look from the side. “Do not worry. Even though you don't have a martial soul, big brother will protect you. I'll protect you for the rest of your life. Alright?” Tang Wulin said as he rubbed his head.

Na’er lifted her head and looked at her, revealing clear purple eyes that now displayed a fantastic splendor. “Sister, can you invite me to play on the beach after we eat?”

Tang Wulin turned around to look at Tang Ziran.

“Continue. Just don't come back late. ” Tang Ziran smile.

Although Glorybound City was called a city, it was actually only a very large village. There is no city wall. The commoner district where the Tang Wulin family lived was very close to the beach.

It only takes ten minutes to walk from their home to the beach.

This beach can not be said to be beautiful because it does not have fine sand. Instead, it was filled with sand and shells that were as rough as gravel. Legend has it that due to the excessive manhunt of soul creatures in the oceans, they have drawn the wrath of nature.

The moonlight tonight was as beautiful as the night before that glittered pure white, like snow. Stars as brilliant as jewels are embedded in the sky canopy, which complements the splendor of the moon.

The ocean reflects the light of the moon and stars in the sky, as waves continue to surge. The sound of crashing waves and seabirds filled the air, adding tremendous vitality to the image of the starry sky above this ocean.

Na’er looked towards the sea, then looked towards the star. “There must be many stars tonight, brother!”

Tang Wulin laughed. “Iya! Maybe they all came out tonight to congratulate me for becoming a Soul Master. Na’er, are you sad for not being able to become a Soul Master? ”

Na’er shook her head. “Not it.” After a moment of silence, he turned around and looked at Tang Wulin's eyes. “Are you going to miss me if I go one day, brother?”
