  Douluo Continent.

  This is a magical world, where there is no fighting spirit, no magic, only the mysterious martial souls, which everyone possesses, and can help them live more conveniently.

  The humans living in this world, when they grow to six years old, have the opportunity to awaken their martial soul once.

  Martial souls can be objects, plants, or animals.

  Among them, a few people can have soul power after awakening their martial soul.

  This part of the martial souls that are born with soul power can cultivate and give humans great strength.

  And this part of the people are called:

  Soul Masters!

  Being a Soul master is the most noble profession on the continent, with power that ordinary people can't imagine. Ordinary people fear Soul Masters, respect Soul Masters, and also yearn to become Soul Masters.

  But whether one can become a Soul Master or not, all of it depends on whether they have innate soul power after awakening their martial soul.

  With innate soul power, one can cultivate and have the chance to reach the peak and become a true Soul Master.

  But if one doesn't have innate soul power, then all efforts are in vain.

  "Innate soul power, even if I don't practice Xuantian Gong, I should have it, right?"

  A young figure walked on the street of the Holy Soul Village, heading towards the village chief's house, listening to the villagers' idle chat after returning from the fields, and his face showed a thoughtful look.

  "I'm Tang San, Grandpa Jack, are you home? I'm here again!"

  Bang bang bang!

  The person just now was named Tang San.

  And the village chief of the Holy Soul Village was the well-known great old man in the nearby villages-

  Old Jack!

  "Creak!"

  The big door that had been baked by the sun and lost its red paint slowly opened, and Old Jack's hunched back and kind face came into Tang San's sight: "Little San, you're here, grandpa has prepared breakfast for you."

  Before Tang San could say anything, Old Jack pulled him into the house.

  On the clean and tidy table, there was a pot of rice porridge, a basket of steamed buns, a plate of pickles, and a bowl of eggs.

  For the rural villagers, even the village chief didn't eat very well.

  However, Old Jack obviously prepared more than one person's share.

  It was obvious that Tang San often came here to eat.

  "Sorry to trouble you again, Grandpa Jack." Tang San took the rice porridge and steamed bun that Old Jack handed over, drank the porridge in big gulps, and bit the steamed bun in big bites.

  "That bastard Tang Hao, he's really hateful, he doesn't have any fatherly qualities." Seeing Tang San wolfing down his food, Old Jack couldn't help but complain about Tang Hao.

  "Ever since he came to the Holy Soul Village, I've never seen him act like a human being."

  "When he first came, he still knew how to take care of you, asking the villagers for milk, but when he fed you milk, he often choked you... When you grew up a little bit and learned how to cook, he completely gave up on taking care of you, and let you do everything."

  "What about him? He only knows how to drink and sleep, a big man, I don't know how he can be so weak, even if he suffered a lot before he came to the Holy Spirit Village, he didn't have to be so decadent, right?"

  "He doesn't know how to take care of children at all, the house is so poor, he doesn't know how to earn more money, and leave some family business for his son."

  "Blacksmithing is a skillful job, you can make a living, but he's too lazy, and has a bad temper, and he only knows how to drink... The people in the village are afraid to go to him, they have to find me, and let me take the broken farm tools."

  "Really, Little San, you can't learn from your father in the future, he's done for the life, you're different, you're smart, Master Su Yuntao likes you very much."

  Old Jack was old and talkative, which might be a common problem for old people.

  However, Tang San didn't think that Old Jack said anything wrong, Tang Hao that guy really had some big problems.

  The pride of the Haotian Sect?

  It was not reflected in him at all.

  What he had, was only that pitiful and humble self-esteem.

  He was really unconvinced, he should heal his wounds, work hard to cultivate, and fight back!

  If he wanted to say something about hidden injuries, hard to recover... Tang San sneered at this, he was so badly injured, and he still drank alcohol, he would be strange if he could recover.

  But, he didn't say these words, after all, he was just a child at this time, he shouldn't know so much, so he just helped the old Jack into the house, and gave him a back massage, and then helped with the chores.

  In fact, the current Tang San was not the original one who came from the martial arts world, but a modern transmigrator, who had gone through nine years of compulsory education, and his previous life was named Tang Chuan.

  After transmigrating, the "Chuan" character changed from vertical to horizontal.

  But unfortunately, he only inherited the Xuantian Gong, Purple Demon Eyes, Mysterious Jade Hand, Ghost Shadow Perplexing Trace, and Controlling Crane, Capturing Dragon from the Xuantian Record of the other martial arts world's Tang San.

  The production of hidden weapons, training methods, identification of medicinal materials, and the most important knowledge of immortal grass, none of them were left.

  Perhaps it was because of his transmigration that the soul of the martial arts Tang San was completely shattered, and his memory scattered, leaving only the Xuantian Record, the secret book that the martial arts Tang San never forgot.

  If that was the case, Tang San had to thank his predecessor's persistence, otherwise he wouldn't have any cheats, how could he survive in this Douluo Continent?

  In fact, Douluo Continent was not easy to survive.

  The first problem to solve was his own growth.

  He knew from the modern society that if he wanted to eat enough, he couldn't rely on Tang Hao, that cheap old father, he could only rely on his own cute appearance, and find other people to help.

  For example: the greatest village chief of the Holy Soul Village, Old Jack.

  It had to be said that Old Jack's old good man persona was not a disguise, but really that kind, he was well-known far and near, and the young Tang San relied on Old Jack to grow up not as thin as the original.

  Although he still couldn't reach the sub-health level...

  But, Tang San was not eating for nothing.

  Equivalent exchange, that's how it lasted.

  Therefore, every time he got food from Old Jack, Tang San would give him a back massage, or help pick up firewood, he always had to work, otherwise he felt that he was sorry for his conscience.

  But, there was a year of time, Tang San wanted to help Old Jack better, so he stayed here all the time, until Tang Hao with a black face took him back.

  At that time, Tang Hao even suspected that Old Jack, who had no son under his knees, wanted to kidnap his son as a grandson.

  Since then, Tang San would go home every day, but he made an agreement with Tang Hao, that he would go to Old Jack's place to help, and Tang Hao agreed.

  And after this period of experience, Old Jack was more like Tang San's elder, rather than that Haotian Douluo who slept all day and drank alcohol.

  "Cough cough!"

  Old Jack was still talking non-stop, choked, and coughed violently.

  "Grandpa Jack, are you okay? Don't worry, I will never be like him in the future." Tang San had finished eating by now, and hurriedly gave Old Jack two taps on the back.

  "Ouch, that's heavy!" Old Jack's breath was smooth, but he felt a little pain in his back.

  Tang San was a little embarrassed, and quickly went back to the house, poured a bowl of water for Old Jack, and brought it to him.

  Old Jack drank the water and smacked his lips, saying: "Much better."

  "Then I'll go and pick up some firewood." Tang San took the empty bowl, washed it in the nearby pool, and put it back in the house, then walked out of the door and said to Old Jack, "Brother Tao is coming this afternoon to awaken the martial souls for the suitable children in the village, right?"

  "You kid, you're so rude, don't think that Master Su Yuntao was kind to you two years ago, you can call him like that, you have to call him Master." Although he said so, Old Jack was smiling, and then he took two eggs and stuffed them into Tang San's pocket...
