"Okay, tell us what you got, because I'm busy."
"When I first heard about the remarkable Nine Heart Flowering Apple fighting spirit, I thought to myself, 'What an incredible ability. She can heal even the most critically ill.' However, I later learned that only two people in each era can possess this fighting spirit, and it has only one skill without any combat capability."
Suddenly, I was interrupted by a voice: "That's enough. Say what you have to say," she said coldly. Perhaps she thought I was mocking her, though I had no intention to.
"Yes, indeed, ma'am. I have a solution to one of your problems."
"Are you kidding me?" she asked angrily.
"Of course not. I'm not here to make fun of you. I need a training ground first to prove my point."
"Follow me," she said, trying to control her anger. If she hadn't wanted problems with the Soul Hall, she would have kicked me out immediately.
"As I looked at her, I understood that she was skeptical, but I wasn't concerned. I knew that my actions would speak louder than words and would ultimately change her mind."
We arrived at the training area where the house guards were practicing. When they saw us, they moved aside. They stood to the side of the training field, watching quietly and seemed surprised that the lady of the house was accompanying a young boy.
"Now, show me what you've got," she demanded.
"Okay, but I need someone to compete with."
I calmly prepared a weak opponent at the 27th level of Soul Strength and led him to the center of the courtyard. He looked at me and said, "Kid, my name is Li Feng. I am a Level 27 Spirit Power martial spirit."
"I looked back at him and replied, 'Uchiha Enlil, Level 20 From the power of the Spirit." I had just reached this level last week.
Then the Ye Family Lady spoke: "You look like you want to duel him. I won't make it too long. On three... two... one."
Li Feng summoned his martial spirit, the Fire Eagle, and activated two century-old rings. I focused on him calmly and did not summon my fighting spirit.
Everyone watched in amazement and wonder. One person murmured, "Oh, why hasn't he summoned his fighting spirit?"
Another replied, "Maybe he's frozen in fear."
A third observer chimed in, "Do you think so? He looks calm to me."
"Let's wait and see," said a fourth, as they all continued to watch intently.
Li Feng used his first soul skill, and his soul ring lit up. I saw fiery feathers heading towards me quickly. The Ye Family Master looked at the situation and instructed one of the guards to rescue Li Feng if he was in danger, as she couldn't afford to anger the Spirit Hall.
As the fiery feathers approached, I used the Trigrams Palm Rotation skill of the Hyuga family. I spun in a circle and formed a transparent dome that resembled wind. The fiery arrows bounced off me and some even hit Li Feng. While he was busy avoiding them, I used another Hyuga family skill. I extended my hand, and the air palm trigrams screamed. Without physically touching him, I saw Li Feng fly away, suffering internal injuries.
The arena fell silent, and everyone looked on blankly in disbelief. They had just seen someone defeat a Soul Master without using his martial spirit.
"Hey everyone, did you see what I saw?" someone asked.
"Yes, it seems I am not dreaming. The child defeated Li Feng without using his martial spirit."
"Yes, even though Li Feng is not very strong, he is skilled."
"Mmm, guys, it seems you are not paying attention to the important thing. Have you seen his movements? They look like self-created skills."
"Are you kidding me? Are you saying that these are self-willed skills? They are as powerful as Soul Ring skills."
"This is terrifying... What kind of power could grant a boy such a technique? Could he be from the Spirit Hall?"
"It doesn't matter because we will never obtain such skills anyway."
I stood quietly in the middle of the field, ignoring the commotion of the guards. Then the lady of the family approached and told me to follow her.
She took me to an empty hall where it was just the two of us. She looked at me calmly, but I could see the excitement in her eyes. She asked, "Do you mean to trade these skills with us?"
"Yes, and I think you should understand your value."
"Yes, you are right. If you were not from the Soul Hall, I would have forced you to hand them over."
"The lady is very frank."
"Okay, now tell me how much you want for them," she asked impatiently.
"I want the Ye family's house," I answered calmly.
"What? Are you kidding me? Do you want my family's home? Explain what you mean," she asked angrily.
"Well, I plan to establish my own family in the future, and I want the Ye family to become the first family under my control."I said confidently.
Upon hearing this, she was shocked and said, "Do you want us to become a subordinate family to you in exchange for just two skills?"
"Ma'am, you know that there are only two people from the Ye family, and the family can easily disappear."I said in a mysterious tone.
"Are you threatening me?" she hit the table and shouted angrily.
"No, ma'am, I am not threatening you. Do not misunderstand. Let me ask you this: Why is your family strong economically and other families do not attack you despite your weakness in strength?"
"Because my family has a wide network of relationships in the Heaven Dou Empire, and the Emperor protects us."
"Yes, as I said, you survived because of your relationships and protection from the empire. But what if a war occurred between the two empires or with the Spirit Hall? If they are busy with the war, will they care about protecting you? As for your enemies, you are a danger that must be eliminated, especially given the weakness of the Heaven Dou Empire."
"You have a point, but why the war with the Spirit Hall? There are no conflicting interests, and it only cares about the common people," she replied after calming down.
"You said there is no conflict of interest, but who can guarantee the future?"
"So, you say you will protect us. Can you?"
"Well, I am just a child now, but my potential is clear. You are not the only family I want to include. More importantly, I gave you two skills that are enough to cover the flaws in your fighting spirit. Who knows, in the future, I might find a solution to your other problems."
"Okay, you convinced me. Go and let me think for a little while," she said.
"No problem, I'll be back tomorrow," I said, thinking she seems to have understood my insinuation. If she's not foolish, she must agree.
I believe that two weeks of training on these two skills is worth the effort. During this time, I also mastered another technique that Tsunade taught me, which involves using the palm to heal minor injuries.
It took me two weeks to perfect these three skills, and I'm starting to get comfortable with them. However, I noticed that the color of the Air Palm Trigrams skill is now transparent, unlike the blue color it had in my previous life.
This change might be due to the difference in the type of energy in this world. Nevertheless, the power of the skill seems to be stronger than it was in my previous life.
