Douluo Continent: Starting with Self-Created Soul Rings.

Chapter 1 Martial Soul Talisman

"Martial Soul: Scythe, Weapon Martial Soul, Innate Soul Power Level 0..."

"Martial Soul: Rag; Weapon Martial Soul; Innate Soul Power: Level 0..."

"Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul, a useless Martial Soul, no need to test innate soul power..."

"Martial Soul: Ghost Needle Grass, Weapon Martial Soul, Innate Soul Power Level 0..."

"..."

In the Spirit Hall office, in an old church, one after another, children who had turned six came forward to awaken their spirit.

As one by one, the village's playmates were deemed unqualified to become Soul Masters, the remaining children began to feel anxious.

This included a child with black hair and black eyes, Gu Ziyi.

Of course, Gu Ziyi was his name in his previous life. His current identity is just an orphan in Meilin Village. He doesn't even have a formal name, only a nickname, "Little Stone".

(Please remember the website 202s.tw for the fastest chapter updates.)

Gu Ziyi had only transmigrated into the body of this orphan named Xiao Shitou yesterday. The original body had died after being bitten by a poisonous spider, and Gu Ziyi thought he had been reborn by possessing another's body.

But Gu Ziyi was wrong. He had actually transmigrated and been reborn. It was only because of the fake death caused by the poisonous spider bite that his memories of his past life were restored.

Moreover, as his memories returned, Gu Ziyi's martial soul, which originally had no soul power in this life, also began to mutate!

But Gu Ziyi himself was unaware of all this.

Through his memories, he learned that this world had martial spirits, soul masters, the Heaven Dou Empire, and the Spirit Hall, so Gu Ziyi concluded that he had transmigrated to the Douluo Continent.

The exact timing is uncertain, but as long as the Spirit Hall still exists, it definitely won't happen after the Seven Devils become gods.

Gu Ziyi was still very excited to learn that he had transmigrated to the world of Douluo Continent.

Having come to a world with extraordinary power, Gu Ziyi naturally longed to possess the power of a martial spirit.

However, after learning his identity, Gu Ziyi became somewhat worried, because Douluo Continent is also a world that values ​​bloodlines.

He was an orphan from a small mountain village, and most likely he didn't have any soul power.

Compared to the quality of a martial soul, whether or not one has a foundation in soul power is what determines whether a person has the potential to become a soul master.

That is, innate soul power!

Therefore, soul power is the most important thing.

Gu Ziyi didn't have high expectations for what kind of martial soul he could awaken.

All he wants now is to have soul power.

Soon, it was Gu Ziyi's turn.

After entering the awakening formation, Gu Ziyi closed his eyes as instructed by the deacon of the Spirit Hall and focused on feeling his body.

hum-

With his eyes closed, Gu Ziyi shouldn't have been able to see anything.

But in the endless darkness, Gu Ziyi saw a glimmer of light appear. As the light gradually brightened, Gu Ziyi saw a piece of yellow paper... no, it should be a talisman appear.

Puff puff--

After the talisman appeared, a large number of flames ignited around it, and even the talisman itself burned with blazing flames.

crackling-

boom--

As the flames took shape, countless bolts of lightning struck down from above the talisman, creating a spectacular scene of intertwining flames and lightning.

"A talisman? Not bad, not a scythe or anything!"

"And it looks to be of exceptional quality..."

Gu Ziyi was filled with surprise and delight as he looked at the scene before him.

This martial spirit looks very powerful; its quality is definitely not weak.

At the same time, Gu Ziyi also sensed the awakening of a certain power within his body, and this power unconsciously began to surge towards Gu Ziyi's right hand.

hum-

Gu Ziyi opened his eyes, and all the strange phenomena he had sensed disappeared. In addition, a talisman slowly appeared in the palm of Gu Ziyi's right hand.

However, compared to the various strange phenomena that accompanied the talisman that Gu Ziyi perceived, the talisman that appeared in Gu Ziyi's palm was quite ordinary, just a yellow talisman.

"This must be a mutation in the paper martial spirit, right?"

The Spirit Hall steward who came to preside over the Spirit Awakening Ceremony had his eyes light up slightly when he saw the Spirit form that appeared in Gu Ziyi's hand.

Ordinary paper spirits rarely possess spirit power, but the child in front of me might have the potential to become a spirit master.

"Put your hand up here, let's test your innate soul power!"

As the Spirit Hall steward spoke, he also handed the testing crystal to Gu Ziyi.

Seeing this, Gu Ziyi didn't waste any words and placed his hands directly on the testing crystal. He also wanted to know how much innate soul power he had.

Judging from the strange phenomenon he just saw, his martial soul is definitely not simple. The quality of a martial soul is generally proportional to its innate soul power, so his innate soul power should also be quite high.

As Gu Ziyi focused on feeling the testing crystal, she sensed an energy surging from within her body towards it.

hum-

Immediately afterwards, the test crystal lit up.

Upon seeing the testing crystal light up, Gu Ziyi's eyes widened with excitement as he stared intently at it, eager to know just how many levels his innate soul power was.

"It's lit up..."

"Great, the light means it has soul power..."

"Little Stone can become a Soul Master..."

"..."

When the test crystal lit up, the other children in the village were happy for Gu Ziyi.

"His martial soul is a mutated paper martial soul, with innate soul power level 1!"

"Congratulations, little guy! You have the potential to become a Soul Master!"

The Spirit Hall deacon offered his congratulations, but inwardly he felt somewhat disappointed.

He thought that a mutated martial soul would appear with a higher level of innate soul power, but he didn't expect that the child in front of him only had level 1 innate soul power.

Moreover, the brightness of the crystal was among the lowest for a level 1 innate soul power test.

Even at the lowest level, they still possess the potential to become a Soul Master, since they do have Soul Power.

"Is his innate soul power only level 1?"

Gu Ziyi was stunned upon hearing this, his face showing disbelief.

Judging from the strange phenomena he saw in his consciousness, his martial soul is definitely not simple. How could his innate soul power only be level 1?

At first, Gu Ziyi's expectation of himself was that he only needed to have soul power. However, after seeing the previous strange phenomenon, Gu Ziyi inevitably raised his expectations of his talent. As a result, when he heard that his innate soul power was only level 1, Gu Ziyi found it hard to accept.

"Little guy, having soul power already gives you the potential to become a soul master. You're luckier than most people!"

Seeing Gu Ziyi's disappointed expression, the Spirit Hall deacon couldn't help but chuckle, then asked, "Your spirit is probably a mutated paper spirit. Does it have a new name?"

Upon hearing the words of the Spirit Hall deacon, Gu Ziyi snapped out of his daze and quickly composed himself.

Yes, having soul power is already quite good!

"Yes, my martial soul is talismans!"

Gu Ziyi immediately replied.

"A talisman?"

The Spirit Hall deacon was somewhat taken aback upon hearing this, not understanding the connection between talismans and paper, guessing that it was probably the name of the type of paper!

"Okay, I understand!" However, he didn't ask any more questions, since it was just a mutation of a paper martial soul, and its innate soul power was only level 1, so there was no need to take it too seriously.

"Little one, what's your name?"

While recording Gu Ziyi's martial soul information, the Spirit Hall deacon asked for Gu Ziyi's name. The Spirit Hall records the names of every soul warrior who awakens their soul power.

"My name is Gu Ziyi!"

Without hesitation, Gu Ziyi directly revealed his name from his previous life.

He would never use Little Stone as his name.

"Gu Ziyi, Martial Soul Talisman, a mutated paper martial soul, innate soul power level 1!"

After the Spirit Hall deacon recorded everything for Gu Ziyi, he quickly wrote out a certificate and handed it to him: "This is a certificate issued by the Spirit Hall. With this certificate, you can go to the school in town to learn how to become a Spirit Master!"

"Yes, thank you, sir!"

Gu Ziyi thanked him and accepted the certificate.

The other party did not invite Gu Ziyi to join the Spirit Hall in the same way they invited Tang San.

Perhaps Gu Ziyi's talent is just too average!

However, this was also a good thing, as Gu Ziyi dared not rashly join the Spirit Hall before knowing the specific timeline of the plot.

Otherwise, being forced to fight against Tang San after he becomes a god would be extremely dangerous.

Otherwise, given Gu Ziyi's status as a commoner orphan, joining the Spirit Hall would be the best choice.

"Alright, next!"

The Spirit Hall deacon then proceeded to perform the Spirit Awakening Ceremony for the remaining children.

Unfortunately, none of the remaining children possessed soul power and had the potential to become a soul master.

"My lord, has anyone in our village awakened their soul power?"

When the Spirit Hall deacon led all the children out of the church, the village chief, who had been waiting outside, immediately went up to ask him questions.

"Not bad, your Merlin Village has a child with the potential to become a Soul Master this year!"

Upon hearing this, the deacon of the Spirit Hall smiled and replied.

"Great, wonderful! Now our village can finally produce another Soul Master."

Upon hearing this, the village chief became excited and repeatedly praised it.

Then the village chief looked at the group of children behind the Spirit Hall deacon, wanting to know who had the potential to become a Soul Master.

"Village chief, it's Little Stone..."

"That's right, it's a small stone..."

"Little Stone has innate soul power level 1..."

"..."

When the village chief looked at them, the other children started to speak up.

"Okay, okay..."

The village chief praised him repeatedly, then stepped forward and complimented Gu Ziyi.

He was very happy as long as someone had the potential to become a Soul Master, no matter whose child it was.

"Village Chief, I need to rush to other villages to hold Martial Soul Awakening Ceremonies for them, so I'll take my leave now!"

"The beginner Soul Master Academy starts in three months. Then you can take him to the town's academy to learn about Martial Souls!"

The deacon of the Spirit Hall then took his leave.

"Yes, yes, I'll see you off, Your Excellency..."

Upon hearing this, the village chief readily agreed and then personally saw the other party off.

"Little Stone, you're amazing!"

"Yes, Little Stone can become a Soul Master..."

"Unfortunately, none of us possess soul power..."

"..."

As soon as the village chief and the deacon of the Spirit Hall left, the other playmates who had undergone the Spirit Awakening Ceremony with Gu Ziyi began to speak to him.

Some were happy for Gu Ziyi, while others felt sorry for themselves.

Gu Ziyi responded with a smile, and was genuinely happy at the same time.

Compared to others, he was indeed much luckier.

Gu Ziyi couldn't wait to become a true Soul Master.

……

PS: The protagonist's martial soul is not simple. It was originally a useless paper martial soul without soul power. It was only after the protagonist's memories were restored that the paper martial soul mutated into a talisman. However, it was awakened as soon as it mutated and had not yet fully developed, so it only has innate soul power level 1!

My new book is out! Please add it to your collection and read it.

P.S.: My completed works include "Douluo: Starting from Destroying My Soul Rings", "In Douluo, I Ate the Blue Silver Emperor", "Douluo: My Martial Soul is a Simulator", and "Douluo: My Martial Soul is Bibi Dong", all of which are excellent.
