Naoto channeled the spirit energy into his feet and used the skill. It gave high speed but not much, but it was an increase in his strength, at least those of his age would not be able to compete with him, so he spent the next days practicing his skill until he mastered it completely and could use it to fight, and so a month passed in total. Naoto moved
To the second step in his training, the first month was to improve his body and the second was to improve his spiritual energy. At first, Naoto relied on his technique of meditating, then eating, then sleeping, then meditating, at every possible time for him. Under normal circumstances, it is impossible for him to reach the tenth level within three months. But with cleaning the meridian and hard work, he will be able to do it, unless the numbness in his limbs from too much meditation stops him. It was a matter of time.
And so another month passed
(Congratulations to the host for reaching the tenth level, the level cannot be raised anymore unless he obtains a soul ring)
Naoto succeeded in his goal, and this time he collected more than five thousand points. He opened the system store and looked at the third level of tools. There were weapons, pistols, and rifles, but instead of this, he bought a sword called Murasama. When he bought the sword, the sword was filled with an ominous black aura, except for the fact that it was the sword. Heavy

"Well let's start"
With these words, Naoto tried to lift the sword, but it was a little heavy, but it was not impossible to lift it. Naoto raised the sword above his head and began to wave it slowly. He could not speed up.
By waving, otherwise the sword would fall from his hand
He had to repeat it again
He waved it repeatedly, but the additional gain he felt was an increase in his strength. Despite the slow increase, the stability was increasing day after day until Naoto was swinging the sword with a little difficulty.
After a month had passed, he had completed the system's mission and obtained the skill.
The promised day has come
Early in the morning, shortly after dawn, Naoto opened his eyes in the middle of his room, looking at the ceiling
'it's time'
He got up from his warm bed and started gathering his things, when suddenly his mother entered him
"are you ready"
Her eyes were filled with sadness at the loss of her son, but she remained strong for him
"Yes"
Naoto spoke, his voice filled with sadness
He put his things in the cloth bag on his back, and headed out of the house with his parents. He turned around a few times as he watched his house disappear as far as the eye could see.
They arrived at the entrance of the village, where the village elder was waiting for them with the cart
"Take this with you, Zhang Yong."
The elder gave Naoto a card bearing his origin, soul type, and level
"What is this?"
Naoto asked curiously, looking at her expectantly
"This is a martial spirit certificate, it's necessary to enter the school."
The elder replied in a serious tone
Naoto looked at his parents and smiled faintly to hide his sadness
At the moment of farewell, his mother hugged him tightly and spoke in a loving voice
"If you ever feel tired of the profession of a soul master, remember that you have a family waiting for you."
Naoto smiled and hugged his mother gently before getting into the carriage
"Remember, Zhang Yong, when you arrive
"You will find someone who will guide you."
The elder spoke a little loudly as he watched Naoto leave
"Okay, bye everyone."
Naoto waved his hand to his family as he left the place
The place from which he began his journey in this new world with high hopes and unquenchable ambition
He had engraved the shape of his village and every corner and part of it in his heart until he reached the point where it disappeared as far as the eye could see
Then he turned around and watched the road in front of him. To kill time, he was browsing the system store. One thousand points could even be exchanged for ten gold coins, which was huge. The average spiritual master could get one coin a month, but Naoto could get ten times that in less time, so he got up. Immediately exchange it, put the bundle of money in the warehouse, and continue browsing it
Noding City wasn't too far away so Naoto arrived in the city within four hours
The city was not large, but it was surrounded by thick brick walls, making it difficult to penetrate
When the carriage stopped, he got out and entered the great gate of the city, where he was searched like all other travelers upon entry
When he entered, he walked for a while, then stopped and started looking around, then he heard a female voice calling him
"Zhang Yong, then you have come."
Naoto turned towards the sound to see a girl walking towards him
"Is this Yuan Ling?"
"And who else?"
"So what, you're still the same little girl from three months ago?"
"This is our first interview in three months, and this is the first thing she says."
Yuan Ling stood in front of Naoto, grabbed his wrist and dragged him
"We have to hurry before the school closes."
"I didn't plan to meet you here."
"Didn't the village elder tell you that someone would guide you?"
"He didn't tell me anything about you."
'I've been tricked'
Naoto spoke in a surprised voice, but he followed Yuan Ling due to his lack of knowledge of the way, and Naoto finally arrived at his destination.
In the distance he could see a large arched door, twenty meters wide and more than ten meters high, made of solid rock. Below it were two black iron gates.
He also saw the shadow of two people. The first was an old man with white hair and a hunched back, wearing simple clothes. He was leaning on his cane, arguing with the young doorman. Next to him was a boy of six or five years old, with short black hair and shabby but tidy clothes.
When he looked at them, the first possibility he thought of was Naoto Kan, but he had to make sure. After a few steps, he had arrived at the place of discussion with Yuan Ling.
"is there a problem"
Naoto intervened in the middle of the discussion, trying to stop both parties
The young doorman turned towards the sound and spoke in an arrogant voice
"Who are you, kids?"
"We are new working students this year and came to apply."
When the janitor heard the matter, he extended his hands towards the two children
"Certificates, how do you think I will believe you?"
Naoto took the certificate out of his pocket and he and Yuan Ling handed it to the janitor. The janitor examined the certificates.
"If you tell the truth, then you can come in."
When the old man heard the doorman's response, he was overcome with anger
"Why do you let them in, while you keep us out?"
"Their testimony makes sense, unlike you two, how could a silver blue plant be born with complete innate soul power?"
The doorman answered arrogantly
"Gentlemen, may I know the problem?"
Naoto spoke in a serious voice
"This is none of the children's business."
The doorman spoke in an arrogant tone
"I may be small, but I am a master of spirit, so I know your destiny, janitor."
At this moment, Naoto had activated the Death Aura ability. He realized that talking normally to the janitor would not yield results, as this type would not be afraid unless he felt a threat or met someone stronger than him.
"Ah... these two want to enter with a fake certificate from the Soul Hall."
The janitor spoke in a slightly trembling voice from the shivers beneath his bones as he looked into Naoto's eyes
"Nonsense it's not fake."
The old man spoke angrily while looking at the janitor
"Indeed, janitor, we both know that certificates cannot be faked."
Naoto took the doorman's hand and secretly took out the bag of gold coins and put it in his hand before anyone saw it
He approached the janitor's ear and spoke in a whisper
"Take this money, and buy yourself something nice with it. Isn't that better than bringing the Soul Hall into the matter? If we do this, you will gain nothing, and there is also the possibility that you will be expelled."
After he said what he said, the doorman tried to return his condition to what it was and opened the gate
"I apologize for the misunderstanding, you may come in."
The old man was surprised by the situation, but he knew that the little boy with golden eyes in front of him had a hand in the matter, so he bowed slightly in front of the little boy.
"Thank you, little brother, for helping us."
Immediately when Naoto saw his bending, he immediately stopped him and helped him stand
"Why are you bowing down, sir? You are the same age as my grandfather, and helping you is my duty."
'Luckily I came before the floor was mopped by the janitor or it would get worse.'
Naoto smiled at the old man after he stood up
The old man looked at Naoto and started pulling his beard
"Thank you for what you did"
The voice came from the person standing next to the old man, who was the young boy. Although his looks were normal for most people, they were sharp for Naoto. He realized that he was trying to determine whether Naoto was an enemy or a friend according to the rules of his sect, especially after Naoto witnessed the arrogance of the doorman.
'So this is him. He is the Asura god, the sea god, and the leader of the great circle of gods.'
"No problem, sir, I can accompany your grandson inside the school campus if you want."
Naoto was directing the conversation towards the old man
"If you don't mind, please."
After the old man had bid farewell to the boy and was about to turn around and leave, a hoarse voice came from behind him
"What's going on here?"
When Naoto looked at him, he recognized him from the timing and appearance. He was a slightly thin middle-aged man with very short black hair.
