Douluo: Infinite Lottery System

Chapter 7: Chapter 7: Sickle Martial Spirit



Inside the hall, golden light shone, enveloping the child standing in the hexagon.

At this point, Su Yuntao instructed, "Stretch out your right hand!"

The child did as instructed, and a small sickle floated above his hand. He then placed his hand on the crystal ball, but there was no response.

Su Yuntao shook his head, and the child exited the hexagon with a disappointed expression.

The process continued without anything unusual—one child after another—but the disappointment on Su Yuntao's face grew heavier with each passing turn.

Then, when Tang San stepped forward, the golden light in the hexagon flared a bit brighter than before.

Xiao Tianyang was also surprised by this and thought to himself, 'Could it be that the Golden Legend will be triggered?'

Of course, that was just a joke.

Xiao Tianyang, who was standing behind Tang San at that moment, clearly saw Tang San's left hand clenched and hidden behind his back, clearly trying to conceal the presence of the Clear Sky Hammer. In his open right hand, however, there was a sprig of blue silver grass.

Su Yuntao's face almost displayed his disappointment.

But the next second, his eyes widened in disbelief. What had he just seen?

At this moment, Tang San's hand pressed onto the crystal ball, and a dazzling blue light almost filled the entire hall.

Su Yuntao stood there, stunned for a moment, his gaze shifting between Tang San and the blue silver grass in his hand, before he shook his head.

The feeling was a mix of disappointment and helplessness.

"The prerequisite for becoming a soul master is soul power. Even a wasteful martial soul can become a soul master as long as the person has soul power and practices through meditation. But the children before us don't have any soul power."

"Only you... are born with tenth-level soul power, the so-called innate full soul power."

After saying this, Su Yuntao shook his head once more. "But it's a pity that your martial soul is Blue Silver Grass."

Being born with full soul power is a genius-level talent that occurs once in a hundred years, and this fact has been confirmed by the Spirit Hall in every possible way.

However, the Blue Silver Grass is widely regarded as a waste martial soul, universally recognized as such, making this situation quite embarrassing.

Upon hearing this, Tang San stepped aside. His expression wasn't one of disappointment or joy, but his eyes were filled with thought, as if considering something deeply.

"Okay, next one."

Tang San's appearance had indeed affected Su Yuntao, but that was all. He was born with full soul power, but his martial soul was Blue Silver Grass—nothing worth further attention.

Xiao Tianyang then stepped into the hexagon without a second thought.

Congratulations to the host for completing the main task, [Martial Soul Awakening].

"Get rewards: Random draw x1, Random martial spirit x1!"

A familiar voice echoed in Xiao Tianyang's mind, and suddenly, his vision darkened, as though he had entered a confined, claustrophobic space.

Strangely, Xiao Tianyang didn't feel fear in this place; instead, he felt a sense of return that was difficult to express.

Before him, the scene split into two halves—on the left, there was darkness, representing the soul's origin; on the right, there was a bright light, symbolizing the arrival of new life…

In the next instant, the space collapsed, the darkness transforming into a door that closed tightly and disappeared without a trace.

The light was compressed, taking the shape of a single-edged sickle, about two meters long. The pole was engraved with mysterious markings, neither too plain nor overly elaborate.

What caught Xiao Tianyang's attention most was the gemstone at the connection between the blade and the sickle, glowing with divine brilliance and emitting a dazzling light.

A quick glance told him that this was certainly not an ordinary object.

Suddenly, Xiao Tianyang snapped back to reality and heard the familiar voice near his ear.

"It's another useless martial soul. The flames don't even feel warm, it's so weak."

Xiao Tianyang looked down at his open right palm, his face showing a strange expression.

It was obvious that, without thinking, he had spread his right hand out, manifesting the Red Lotus Karmic Flame, but now, the flames were green instead of red?

He then glanced at the system prompts and realized that the green flames were a reward from the system, while the sickle he had seen earlier was the one he had awakened himself.

Congratulations to the host for obtaining the martial spirit creature's flame.

Xiao Tianyang quickly understood what was happening. If he guessed correctly, the source of this flame should be the same as the Red Lotus Karmic Flame.

Seeing Xiao Tianyang standing there, seemingly lost in thought, Su Yuntao asked, "Kid, what are you waiting for?"

Coming back to his senses, Xiao Tianyang understood what Su Yuntao meant and placed his hand on the crystal ball.

But immediately, Su Yuntao's expression turned ghostly pale, his mouth falling open. "Another innate full soul power!"

Suddenly, a brilliant blue light erupted, flooding the entire hall in an instant!

The radiance even leaked out through the windows, faintly visible outside.

Crack!!!

A cracking sound rang out as Xiao Tianyang quickly pulled his hand back, secretly shocked. 'That was close. I stopped just in time. If the crystal ball had exploded, the people from the Spirit Hall would have captured and cut me apart for research'

As the light dissipated, everyone stood in stunned silence, including Su Yuntao, though there were two notable exceptions.

One was Xiao Tianyang himself. He had never worried about the task requirements before. After all, if he could defeat Tang San, what did it matter if his soul power wasn't greater than Tang San's?

The other exception was Tang San. He had already witnessed Xiao Tianyang's strength, and the latter had told him that his soul power was easier to access than ordinary people's. So, his innate full soul power wasn't all that surprising to him.

"In a village, two innate soul powers... this really is something," Su Yuntao murmured, shaking his head. "But the martial souls of these two children are a bit strange. The Blue Silver Grass is nothing out of the ordinary, but this strange flame... I can't draw a conclusion just yet."

After a brief pause, Su Yuntao, unsure of why, felt the need to offer another reminder. "Martial spirits in the world are full of strange things. It's not impossible for martial spirits that have never been recorded to appear."

"And the most professional in the study of flame martial souls is, of course, the Blazing Fire Academy."

After saying this, Su Yuntao reached out and rubbed Xiao Tianyang's head.

"The things here are done, and I'm leaving now."Su Yuntao packed his belongings, said a few words to Village Chief Old Jack, and then walked toward the gate of the hall.

"Wait"

Xiao Tianyang suddenly retracted his martial spirit, turned to Su Yuntao, and asked, "Can I ask you to do something for me?"

Hearing this, Village Chief Old Jack was startled and quickly explained, "Lord Spirit Master, I'm sorry, this kid has just lost his parents, and he's a bit reckless..."

But Su Yuntao waved his hand dismissively. "Child, tell me what you need. If it's not difficult, I'll help you."

Xiao Tianyang stepped forward, whispered a few words into Su Yuntao's ear, then took a step back and asked, "Is that okay?"

"It's not difficult."Su Yuntao thought for a moment, then nodded. "Three months from now, Nuoding Academy will begin registration. You can come to me when the time comes."

"Thank you."Xiao Tianyang gave a slight bow to express his gratitude.

Su Yuntao didn't think much of it. He simply found the child pleasing to the eye and believed that, if possible, he could help him. It was a small favor, after all.
