Douluo Continent: Taking Tang San to fight Gangzi

Chapter 52 New Mission

"Young Master Wang, I think we should kick him out of our Soul Hunting Team. Having another useless person like him will only affect our morale."

"Also, it would be better to give this money to our Soul Hunter Team than to give it to him. At least we have teamwork, and we're stronger in battle."

Beside Wang Fugui, a tall, thin man from the Soul Hunting Squad spoke with disdain.

In his view, there was no point in adding a solo Soul Master who couldn't coordinate with the team.

The problem isn't a lack of coordination, but rather that he might disrupt the teamwork among the members of the Soul Hunter Squad.

"Hahaha, the captain is right."

"Exactly! What good is a ball of yarn spirit like that?!"

"Go home and knit a sweater!"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

"Okay, then we don't need you anymore. Find a team yourself."

"Hahaha!"

Wang Fugui and his Soul Hunting Team laughed heartily, completely ignoring the Great Soul Master's helpless expression, and turned to enter the Soul Hunting Forest.

The great soul master was left standing there alone, unaware that his fingernails were digging into his flesh and drawing blood.

Seeing this from afar, Xiao Lin was deeply moved.

This was the first time he had ever seen that even lower-level Soul Masters had such difficult circumstances.

He originally thought that no matter what, a Great Soul Master could become a deacon of the Spirit Hall like Brother Tao, and then help ordinary people awaken.

Xiao Lin fell silent. If even the lowest-ranking Soul Masters were in such a miserable state, what about the common people?

Where there are people, there will be oppression. Xiao Lin had seen in the original novel that after Tang San destroyed a Spirit Hall, the common people of the entire city cheered.

Perhaps I can change this situation and make some Soul Masters and commoners no longer so humble.

Furthermore, the Spirit Hall helps commoners awaken their spirits. Regardless of whether their upper classes are corrupt or not, it is still much better than the feudal period of the Peerless Tang Sect ten thousand years later.

Such acts of kindness must never cease.

After thinking about it, Xiao Lin decided that when he had time, he would publish a paper on how Soul Masters understand Martial Souls.

Let all Soul Masters understand the advantages of their Martial Soul and then choose a more suitable Soul Ring.

Take, for example, that great soul master who was like a ball of yarn.

Even without having seen his martial spirit, Xiao Lin could tell from the literal meaning of the name what advantages his martial spirit had.

For example, it should be long enough and thin enough to be well-hidden in a place like the Soul Beast Forest...

While Xiao Lin was lost in thought, Su Yuntao arrived at Xiao Lin and the other two with a mission.

With a smile on his face, Su Yuntao laughed heartily at Xiao Lin and the other two: "Alright, your Brother Tao still has some face, he's found a new mission."

"It's just that the three of you don't have much money. You won't get gold soul coins unless you contribute to the fight against the soul beasts."

As he spoke, Su Yuntao picked up the backpack from the ground and led Xiao Lin and the other two to the new Soul Hunter team.

"This Soul Hunting Squad is called the War Tiger Squad. The captain is my good brother Wang Neng, a level 32 Soul Master with the War Tiger Martial Soul. He's the guy who helped me get my second Soul Ring."

Su Yuntao led the three to a Soul Hunting Squad and introduced them to a tall, burly middle-aged man.

Su Yuntao and Wang Neng put their arms around each other's shoulders and said with a smile, "You can just call him Brother Wang."

Xiao Wu noticed Wang Neng's martial spirit and murmured to herself, "Martial spirit: War Tiger. Wang Sheng's martial spirit is also War Tiger?"

"Oh? You know Wang Sheng? He's from our Wangjia Village. He even has to call me Second Uncle."

Wang Neng, with his sharp ears, heard Wang Sheng's name and grinned, "This kid said he would become a Soul Master with me in the future, but he still hasn't become a Soul Master. When I go back this semester, I'll beat him to death."

Xiao Lin and the others smiled upon hearing this. With acquaintances as a bond, they quickly became familiar with each other.

"By the way, I heard that Su Yuntao's second spirit ring was your idea? Then I have to thank you too."

Suddenly, Wang Neng said this to Xiao Lin, which made Xiao Lin look at Su Yuntao with a strange expression.

Su Yuntao is such a big mouth.

"After I helped Su Yuntao obtain his second soul ring, I also broke through immediately. Thinking of Su Yuntao's soul ring skill, I had a flash of inspiration and chose a similar soul skill."

Wang Neng was very talkative. After explaining the whole story, he scratched his head and looked embarrassed on his honest face.

"Brother Lin, could you help my son Wang Shengye think about how to get a good spirit ring? I don't want the money from this soul hunt, please help me think of a good spirit ring."

"Brother Wang, forget about the money. Wang Sheng is also our classmate. I'll definitely help him if I can."

Xiao Lin was reluctant to ask money from people he knew, especially since Wang Sheng's aptitude was not good enough, and it was impossible for him to obtain a perfect soul skill.

Xiao Lin only needed to think about it casually, and it would be an easy task.

Soon, after exchanging pleasantries, Xiao Lin and his two companions, along with the Soul Hunter Team, entered the Soul Hunter Forest to begin their mission.

As they entered the Soul Hunter Forest, the noise outside instantly subsided. Xiao Lin and his two companions were placed at the very back of Wang Neng's team, while the person in the middle was the mission commissioner, a girl of about twelve or thirteen years old, dressed in ordinary clothes and not appearing to be wealthy.

Among them, Tang San and Xiao Wu were very quick-witted and kept observing the changes in their surroundings.

Tang San even left his own Blue Silver Grass trail along the way to prevent himself from getting lost.

"Our Soul Hunting Team is an all-attack team. The vice-captain is Shi Dan, level 26, whose martial soul is the War Chicken. He is an agility-type soul master. There is also Xu Yi, level 24, whose martial soul is the Lazy Pig. He is a power-type soul master."

Wang Neng introduced the martial souls of the remaining two people. The soul master named Shi Dan was rather thin, but his eyes were very sharp, and he looked like a war rooster.

The Soul Master named Xu Yi was rather stout and chubby, and he gave a simple, honest smile.

Xiao Lin nodded upon hearing this: "I see. Although it's called an all-attack team, it's already very well-rounded."

"Captain Wang Neng's martial soul, the War Tiger, is undoubtedly a strong offensive weapon. Vice Captain Shi Dan is a reconnaissance type and also an agile offensive weapon. As far as I know, Xu Yi's 'Sloth Pig' martial soul is not weak in attack but also has a certain defensive capability."

"Including Brother Tao's lone wolf, this team should be quite competitive in the Soul Hunter Forest."

Xiao Lin had a high opinion of this Soul Hunting Team. With such a configuration, even if they couldn't guarantee the acquisition of Soul Beasts, protecting their employer shouldn't be difficult.

Soon after Xiao Lin's analysis, Vice Captain Shi Dan activated his martial spirit, transforming his hands into chicken wings as he flew forward to scout the way.

Like powerful dragon and phoenix martial souls, the war rooster is not as strong as them, but chickens are naturally able to restrain certain poisonous insects.

With the Stone Egg Vice Captain's spirit attached to him and his spirit power dissipating, Tang San no longer needed the insect repellent powder he had originally intended to leave behind.

"Brother Xiaolin has a wealth of theoretical knowledge, good grades, and strong abilities. He's much better than my Wang Sheng."

As he spoke, Wang Neng began to grit his teeth again, angry that Wang Sheng wasn't working hard enough.

However, he quickly continued explaining the mission, pointing to the twelve or thirteen-year-old girl.

"This employer is also a student at Notting Academy, named Xiao Gui. However, he is not very talented, and his martial soul is just an ordinary osmanthus. So he wants to acquire a soul skill with healing abilities so that he can help support his family in the future."

"The money for this soul hunt is all owed to me now. I'll pay it back later when I become a doctor or a healing-type soul master."

"I originally wanted her to join our team so we wouldn't have to pay back the money, but it was still too dangerous, and she refused."

"This time, Xiao Gui's target is a soul beast with healing abilities that has nearly three hundred years of cultivation, which Master Lin Dong said can absorb soul rings to the extreme."

"Now many people are preparing to work hard to absorb better spirit rings, so Xiao Gui would rather go into debt than not get a good spirit skill."

As Wang Neng spoke, a hint of respect and emotion for Lin Dong was revealed in his eyes.

With Master Lin Dong's thesis, their Soul Hunting missions are now basically profitable, with each mission earning them a lot of money.
