Soul Land: Bibi Dong Is My Martial Soul

Chapter 20: Bibi Dong's Shock

"Su Mo, why do you always carry your Hunting Soul Spear on your back?"

Su Mo's habit of always carrying his Hunting Soul Spear on his back soon sparked curiosity among his classmates. Xiao Wu, who was relatively familiar with Su Mo, directly asked him about it.

"It's nothing, I'm just trying to practice a soul skill."

Su Mo responded simply.

But it wasn't just about practicing a soul skill—he was up to something much bigger.

"What kind of soul skill are you practicing?"

Xiao Wu asked, intrigued.

"Nothing much. I don't even know if it'll work."

Su Mo smiled and brushed off her question.

"Oh, forget it then!"

Hearing this, Xiao Wu lost interest and quickly walked away, returning to Tang San's side, where they continued to chat and laugh together.

Among their classmates, she felt a special connection to Tang San. Not only did he possess considerable strength, but she also found him particularly kind, so she preferred spending time with him.

In Xiao Wu's eyes, Su Mo was just a strange person.

He rarely showed up in class, and even when he did, he didn't interact much with others.

Watching Xiao Wu run back to Tang San's side, Su Mo could only sigh inwardly.

Although he had successfully prevented Xiao Wu from sharing a bed with Tang San, he couldn't stop her from hanging out with him.

Su Mo simply didn't have the time to engage with Xiao Wu. Moreover, knowing that Xiao Wu was surely under Tang Hao's watchful eye, he decided it was best to keep his distance.

Su Mo continued on his own path.

The only real change was that after returning from the Soul Hunting Forest, Bibi Dong started appearing in front of him more frequently.

It was Su Mo who had asked Bibi Dong to teach him about soul power and martial spirits.

A few months earlier, Su Mo had realized there was nothing more for him to learn in the library at Nuoding Academy.

So, when Bibi Dong showed up again, Su Mo took the opportunity to ask for her guidance.

He had fully expected to be refused.

But, after some hesitation, Bibi Dong surprisingly agreed.

Thus, the time Su Mo used to spend in the library was now spent inside his Martial Spirit Space, receiving instruction from Bibi Dong.

And so, Su Mo continued his exhausting yet fulfilling daily routine.

Time passed steadily.

As Su Mo consistently merged his Hunting Soul Spear with the iron spear, he gradually noticed that the connection between the iron spear and himself was growing stronger.

What initially felt like a faint bloodline connection had, by the time of his graduation three years later, evolved into a sensation that the iron spear had truly become part of his body, much like his Hunting Soul Spear.

After throwing the iron spear, Su Mo could now summon it back to his hand with just a thought, using a small amount of soul power.

In the familiar clearing behind Nuoding Academy...

Swish, swish, swish!

Su Mo swung the long spear freely, his movements like a dragon in flight. Every thrust and sweep was executed with extreme precision, leaving deep marks in the ground.

"Crescent Slash!"

"Cloud Chaser!"

"Star Pursuit!"

"Raging Fire Hundred Strikes!"

Finally, Su Mo even tried to mimic a set of moves from Yun Ying, a character he used to play in the mobile game Honor of Kings in his previous life. However, unlike Yun Ying, he couldn't quite summon the three layers of spear intent with the final strike, managing only to slam the spear into the ground with great force.

"Hoo..."

After finishing his practice, Su Mo let out a long breath, his face and body covered in sweat.

Yet, he felt entirely refreshed. For someone who trains every day, skipping a day feels strangely off.

After resting for a while, Su Mo looked around and, seeing no one nearby, his expression grew serious.

With both hands gripping the long spear formed from merging his Hunting Soul Spear and the iron spear, Su Mo concentrated his mind and commanded it to retract.

Su Mo wasn't just trying to recall his Martial Soul back into his body; he was also attempting to summon the iron spear along with it.

He had tried this many times before, but it had never worked.

However, this time was different. This time, Su Mo felt that he had fully refined the iron spear, and it was his first attempt after achieving that.

Hum—

The long spear in Su Mo's hands gave a slight tremble before it completely vanished from his grasp.

"Did it work?"

Seeing this, Su Mo's eyes lit up with excitement.

He quickly closed his eyes and began to examine his Martial Soul Space internally.

Upon entering his Martial Soul Space, Su Mo saw his Hunting Soul Spear. However, this time, it had merged with the iron spear that he had refined. The entire spear was now gently quivering, emitting waves of soul power.

With just a glance, Su Mo understood.

His Hunting Soul Spear was undergoing a complete fusion with the refined iron spear. Once the fusion was complete, the two would be inseparable.

Swish—

At that moment, a figure emerged from the blood-colored mist beside the Hunting Soul Spear.

"Little one, what's happening here?"

Bibi Dong, noticing the changes in the spear, turned to Su Mo with a look of surprise and questioned him.

Bibi Dong had been unaware of Su Mo's efforts to refine the iron spear. She knew he often combined his Martial Soul with the iron spear during training, but Su Mo had never mentioned that he was trying to refine it. So, Bibi Dong had no idea until now.

Seeing Su Mo's Martial Soul undergo such a transformation, Bibi Dong was taken aback. Typically, a Martial Soul only changes appearance when absorbing a new soul ring; otherwise, it remains stable.

But Su Mo was still at level 19 and had been stuck there for several months, unable to break through to level 20, so this transformation couldn't have been caused by absorbing a soul ring.

"Goddess Sister, I'm evolving my Martial Soul!"

Su Mo grinned proudly at Bibi Dong, who was still in shock.

Hum—

As soon as Su Mo finished speaking, the quivering Martial Soul finally settled, completing its evolution and merging into one entity.

The Hunting Soul Spear that reappeared before Su Mo was now more refined and clearly much stronger than before.

"Evolution of a Martial Soul?"

"How is that possible?"

Bibi Dong's initial reaction was disbelief at Su Mo's explanation. But upon seeing the fully evolved Martial Soul, her eyes widened in astonishment. She stared at Su Mo in disbelief and asked, "How did you do it? What exactly did you do?"

At that moment, Bibi Dong felt a genuine sense of disorientation. She couldn't comprehend how Su Mo had managed such a feat, actually causing his Martial Soul to evolve.

With just one look, she could tell that Su Mo's Martial Soul had indeed undergone evolution.

What was once a low-tier Martial Soul had now risen to a mid-tier quality.
