In Douluo Continent, what is a martial soul? It's like Luckin Coffee.

Chapter 44 A few boxes of pastries, little brother, you know quite a lot!
"Let Xiaonan come with you."
"I happen to have a few boxes of pastries here, which can help that girl sell them to supplement her household income."
Upon learning of his nephew Bai Ran's idea, Ye Tian immediately thought of someone: Jiang Nannan, who was cleaning in the kitchen.
Speaking of Jiang Nannan, Ye Tian had a good first impression of her. She was a hardworking and good girl, but her soul power level was a bit low. She couldn't handle soul beasts that were over ten thousand years old, so for now she was just doing some odd jobs in the kitchen.
In addition, the little girl's situation is quite complicated.
Two weeks ago, when Ye Tian was leaving Shrek City, he was suddenly blocked by a group of men in black.
At the time, they thought he was an evil soul master, so Ye Tian took out an eighth-level soul tool (produced by the Sun Moon Royal Academy, it must be a high-quality product) without hesitation and blew up the two soul saints standing at the front.
It was only later that I learned that the group was from the Xuanming Sect.
They felt that Ye Tian's act of providing Jiang Nannan with a job was affecting their young master's search for true love. After learning that Ye Tian was just a food-type soul master with no strength, they prepared to teach him a lesson.
Who would have thought that Ye Tian would be so fierce? Not only did he kill two Soul Saints in one move, but he also almost killed Xu Sanshi's secret protector, the Soul Douluo from the Xuanming Sect, as a mere soldier.
After this incident, Xu Sanshi has been hesitant to bother Jiang Nannan lately, especially when she goes to the inner courtyard for her part-time job.
Xu Sanshi is just a bit impulsive, he's not an idiot.
Moreover, most of the inner court disciples respect Master Ye very much. If he goes to find someone to target Ye Tian, he might get caught by an inner court disciple and have nowhere to seek justice.
Comparing backgrounds? In the eyes of many inner court disciples, the Xuanming Sect is nothing more than a group of courtesans.
……
"Ah? Uncle, this..."
"What's wrong? Didn't you recommend Xiaonan to your uncle? Don't you two get along?"
Ye Tian deliberately put on a thoughtful expression.
"No, no, I mainly want to find someone strong who can help me move things."
"Nephew, you don't think Xiao Nan is weak, do you?"
Even though she's a girl, Jiang Nannan is still a level 35 Soul Master, so carrying dozens of kilograms of goods is a piece of cake for her.
Moreover, when she worked part-time at a small supermarket, the boss didn't treat her like a woman; he treated her like a male trainee.
Looking back now, Jiang Nannan realized that the chores in the kitchen, such as organizing ingredients and cleaning, were actually much easier for her.
……
"Don't worry, no one will cause you any trouble."
Seeing Bai Ran's concerns, Ye Tian reached out and gently stroked Bai Ran's head a few times to comfort her.
"Hey, Uncle, you know?"
"Nonsense, you asked me to help investigate Xiaonan's background back then, how could your uncle not know?"
"That's true, but Uncle, how can you be sure that person won't cause trouble?"
"It's very simple, because you are my nephew, Ye Tian."
For a moment, Bai Ran suspected that his uncle was showing off, but he had no evidence.
……
"Xiao Nan, come here for a moment."
Inside the kitchen, a pair of rabbit ears quietly stood up.
Jiang Nannan had actually been listening to the conversation between the two of them.
So when she heard Master Ye calling her name, she ran over without even putting down her broom.
"Is there anything I can do for you, Uncle Ye?"
"Xiao Nan, why don't you go with Ranran to the Foreign Languages Department this afternoon to set up a coffee stall?"
Oh, and there are a few boxes of pastries I baked this morning on the table. Sell them if you want, or take them home and eat them if you don't."
Ye Tian took good care of Jiang Nannan.
Aside from being recommended by her nephew Bai Ran, Jiang Nannan's other attributes were that of a poor student, a school beauty, and a top student.
Especially seeing how sensible and pitiful she was, I inexplicably wanted to take extra care of her.
Ye Tian: If I were thirty years younger, I might have been seduced by a girl like that. But now, I'm almost a Title Douluo. If I date a young girl like that, who's going to protect whom?
"Uncle Ye, that won't do."
Jiang Nannan said that this was unacceptable. Although the ingredients used in those boxes of pastries were not particularly precious, they were still in short supply in the inner courtyard canteen.
More than a hundred boxes of pastries sold out in less than an hour, and each box was priced at around one hundred gold soul coins.
The remaining boxes were left by Chef Ye for the canteen staff; how could Jiang Nannan possibly take them all?
"It's okay, those long-time employees get to eat it every week, they're already tired of it."
There's no reason to get tired of Chef Ip's desserts.
Ye Tian said this mainly because he didn't want the young girl to feel any burden.
"Uncle, you can make desserts?"
Bai Ran was completely bewildered; he didn't remember his uncle making such a thing.
Could it be that I have lost a piece of my memory?
"Let me see what you've done."
Bai Ran approached the table, tiptoed slightly, and discovered that the box contained butter cookies.
Bai Ran: Hmm... it's not what I like to eat, then never mind.
……
The annual freshman competition is very exciting, and the world is never short of geniuses.
If Bai Ran could think of it, then the senior students from the Foreign Languages Department could think of it as well.
Of course, some of the items they sell at their stalls have a rather unique style.
For example, they might sell guides for the freshman competition, or personal photo albums of the top ten beauties from the foreign language department.
It's a pity that soul tools are not allowed in the freshman competition, otherwise there would probably be a few more stalls selling soul tools.
"Sister Nan, what place did you get when you participated in the freshman competition?"
Walking towards the Soul Arena, Bai Ran suddenly became curious and couldn't help but ask a question.
"I think it's third place."
Jiang Nannan tried hard to recall before speaking.
Back then, during the freshman competition, Jiang Nannan successfully proved herself and became one of the few core disciples of her class.
However, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.
Even after becoming a core disciple, she still couldn't raise enough money to buy her mother a life-saving pill.
Perhaps we could have raised the money in a few more years, but unfortunately, my mother's condition had deteriorated to the point where she could no longer wait.
"Third place? Sister Nan, you didn't team up with Sister Xiaoya back then, did you?"
"Little brother, how did you know?"
"Because Sister Xiaoya isn't very strong."
How strong can a martial soul be, if it's Blue Silver Grass?
Tang San's Blue Silver Grass is strong because it is the unactivated Blue Silver Emperor.
Tang Ya's Blue Silver Grass is really just Blue Silver Grass.
If Tang Ya hadn't been blinded by hatred and fallen into becoming an evil soul master, she probably wouldn't have even had a hard time breaking through to the Soul Douluo level if she had cultivated normally.
"Couldn't it be that the opponent is too strong?"
"Sister Nan, who were your opponents back then?"
"Beibei."
"Isn't Beibei Xiaoya's boyfriend?"
"That happened after the second year. During the freshman competition, Beibei didn't show Tang Ya any mercy at all."
"Could this be the legendary saying, 'Spare the rod and spoil the child'?"
"Little brother, I didn't expect you to know so much."
