Soul to Chaos

Chapter 1 Soul Power Test
In a spacious lobby, at this moment, it is full of noisy crowd.In the center of the lobby is a huge disc carved with mysterious patterns, and a group of children are lined up neatly, not daring to overstep.

They put their hands on the disk, and the disk emits faint and different lights, which is extremely mysterious.

An old man with a long white beard stood behind the disc, observing the teenagers in front of him one after another, and indifferently reported a series of grades.

"Lin Wei, ninth-class soul power." The white-bearded old man looked at the Yuanpan in front of him with only a faint light, and said without emotion.

The child named Lin Wei had a frustrated expression on his face when he heard it.The faces of the two middle-aged men and women outside the court also turned dark after hearing this. Obviously, they are the parents of this child, and they are not very satisfied with the result.

In the big family of the Lin family, children will undergo this kind of soul power test when they are almost adults. The purpose is to test the child's cultivation aptitude. It seems that no one has ever had such soul power in the Lin family.Yuanpan will emit different lights according to the qualification of the soul power, so as to know the child's soul power level.

The Lin family also allocated different amounts of cultivation resources to the younger generation based on this level of soul power.This difference is very huge, because cultivation consumes a lot of resources. In this world, the strength of strength determines the level of status. It can be said that now is a very important moment in the lives of young people.

"Lin Shan, fourth-class soul power." The white-bearded old man looked at the bright light in front of Yuanpan, slightly surprised, but soon calmed down, because this level is not unprecedented.

There was a great commotion among the crowd.

"It turned out to be fourth-class soul power, and this level is rare!"

"It's so lucky, unlike the one in our family, I really don't know what to do in the future..."

"Hmph! Even if you have fourth-class spirit power, if you don't practice diligently, you probably won't have much future."

All kinds of comments rose up in the crowd, including expressions of jealousy, resentment, envy, and sadness.

When the child named Lin Shan heard that his soul power had reached the fourth rank, he jumped up for joy and cheered loudly: "Yeah, my soul power is actually the fourth rank, that's great, father and mother, I succeeded!" !"

A pair of parents outside the court looked relieved, as if the child had a bright future in the future, surrounded by congratulators.These people have sincere expressions, and they seem to want to make friends, so that they can have someone to take care of them in the future.

Lin Zhen is next.

After hearing this call, the crowd fell silent.

"Didn't he have been tested last year?"

"Isn't he just the trash from last year? The aptitude for soul power doesn't even reach the ninth rank, and the soul power disk doesn't even emit a single ray of light."

"Hey! His future is as hopeless as a gloomy light. I'm afraid he was unconvinced last time. He wants to try again! But the Soul Power Disk can't lie..."

"Last year I thought my kid was bad enough, and I couldn't think of anyone worse than him.

There was a lot of discussion among the crowd, most of which were ruthless ridicule.

Lin Zhen stood forward with a nervous expression on his face.

This is the second time he has participated in the soul power test.

In the previous year's test, his test result could not even reach the ninth grade. Therefore, he could not even receive any resources for cultivation, and was dubbed "trash" by others.

He was not reconciled, his soul power aptitude could not even reach the ninth grade, this was unacceptable to him.

So this time, he came again!

Trembling, he put his hands on the disk, closed his eyes, and thought to himself: I don’t need to think about anything, this time I will definitely be able to do it, the last time the disk happened to have a problem, I can definitely practice!

The white-bearded old man cast a disdainful look at the unresponsive Yuanpan, and shouted angrily, "No qualifications!"

These words hit Lin Zhen's heart like a bolt from the blue. He was almost unable to stand at the moment, and shouted in his heart: "Impossible! Impossible! Impossible!..."

As soon as this remark came out, a burst of laughter broke out among the crowd.

"I don't have the qualifications, I'm really laughing at me. I already knew the result, and I have to come out and lose face. It's really cheap."

"Waste is waste! It will never change for a lifetime!"

"Whose child is that! It's really sad that his parents have such a child! By the way, he seems to be the child picked up by the old man in the back mountain."

"It turned out to be a wild species, not from our Lin family, no wonder he is a waste! Poor his parents!"

When they mentioned that Lin Zhen was a bastard, Lin Xin felt a kind of resentful anger from the bottom of his heart.He looked at the crowd with angry eyes.The disdain and contempt on everyone's faces were on their faces without hesitation, and he felt like he was facing a group of demons.

The helpless figure left slowly, and the laughter in the crowd never stopped.

The darkness seemed to be gradually devouring that lonely figure.

……

It was raining heavily from the sky.In a dilapidated thatched hut in the back mountain, the eaves were dripping into the water.

This hut was originally built by a grandfather himself. Compared with the dense and single houses of the Lin family, this hut looks remote and simple.

Lin Zhen sat curled up at the door, full of unwillingness in his heart.

He is indeed not from the Lin family. The grandfather once told him that he was picked up near the back mountain.At that time, the grandfather was chopping firewood in the back mountain, and later found Lin Zhen, because he couldn't bear to be hurt by the wild beasts on the mountain, so he adopted him.

The old grandpa also said that he had adopted a boy before, but he didn't mention what happened afterwards, but every time he talked about that boy, the old grandpa's face was full of sadness.

After that, the grandfather passed away not long after Lin Zhen became sensible, and was buried in a place in the back mountain.

Lin Zhen only remembered the kind face of the old man, and the rough hands that were callused due to long-term labor. He couldn't even know his name. After asking some other people, they didn't know about Houshan. What is the old man's name? I only know that there is a very enthusiastic old man living in the back mountain.

Looking at his rough palm, he clenched it into a fist instantly, his fingers turned white from the force, and his fingertips sank into the flesh and blood, causing a heart-rending pain.Lin Zhen cursed with a painful face: "Damn it!"

His expression ranged from unwillingness, to remorse, to pain, to helplessness.He slowly lowered his fist, thinking about what to do with tonight's dinner.

In the past few years, Lin Zhen has lived on the soul stones left by his grandfather, but the soul stones have almost been used up. Recently, he has been living on hunting by himself, but it is raining so much today. The hare and wild boar will not come out either, it seems that this is a dead end.

What's more, Lin Zhen once found food at the door of the hut, and this happened from time to time.After lurking in secret for a while, he found out that the person who delivered the food was a very cute girl.

When he met her once, she was wearing a gray cloth dress, and it seemed that her family was not very rich.It's just her soft and shiny hair, the bright and sincere eyes under the watery eyes, the gentle and kind face, and the clumsy movements of going up the mountain left a deep impression on him.

Intuition told him that this girl is a kind person.Later he knew that this girl was called Lin Ling.

When she saw Lin Zhen, her face turned red, and she ran down the mountain quickly after putting down her food.He hadn't had time to say thank you.

Lin Zhen thought of this happy past, and a rare smile appeared on his sad face.

Because the thatched hut was on a high place, Lin Zhen saw the gray-clothed figure at the foot of the mountain again.Under the heavy rain, this figure seemed to be even more difficult.

But when she was dozens of steps away from the hut, a middle-aged woman who couldn't see her face hurried up the mountain from the foot of the mountain.She hurriedly grabbed Lin Ling, with an indescribable anger on her face.

Lin Ling had a helpless expression on his face, and the two were arguing not far from the hut.The voices of the two became louder and louder, so that Lin Zhen could hear them clearly.

……

"Mother, didn't you teach me that the kindness of a drop of water should be repaid by a spring? The old man in the back mountain has helped our family before, and now we should help Lin Zhen." Lin Ling's face showed An almost pleading look.

"That's different! That old grandpa is also from the Lin family anyway, this Lin Zhen is just a bastard picked up, not from the Lin family, it's not a way of saying." The middle-aged woman showed an impatient expression on her face, just wanting to hurry up. Point to take her daughter away.

"It's just food, just put it down!" Lin Ling tried to persuade her mother.

Her mother said angrily: "Fortunately, it was just my cooking. If it was a soul stone, I would have broken your leg a long time ago! I used to forget it, but now the situation is different. Your soul power aptitude has reached five. Wait, and Lin Zhen is just a waste. If you don't practice hard, you are wasting time here! There will definitely be no good results if you get close to this kind of waste!"

"Just let it go..."

"This kind of bastard is so cheap, you won't die if you miss a meal or two! Come with me!" The middle-aged woman had already dragged Lin Ling down the mountain.

"Mother, how can you say that!"

Lin Ling had no choice but to throw down the basket containing the food, looked at the thin figure in the hut through the rain curtain, and walked down the mountain step by step.

In the heavy rain, a young man silently clenched his fist again. The rain curtain covered his face like a mask, and his expression could not be seen.

He walked out of the hut without concealment, the rain wet his hair, wet his face, and wet his clothes.

He silently walked up to the basket and kicked the basket down the hill without hesitation.

After a while in the rain, he remembered the figure in gray clothes in his heart again, went down the mountain, picked up the familiar basket, dumped all the food in it on the ground, and walked slowly back to the hut.

Putting the somewhat damaged basket in the corner of the hut, Lin Zhen sat quietly back to the original position, waiting for the heavy rain to stop, just like waiting for hope to come in the vast darkness.

A 15-year-old boy is about to face the darkness of the whole world.

This world gave him infinite despair, but he didn't know when to give him hope...
