in your heart.)






the glossed-over truth.)










into the deepest darkness.)

Dad.

The nails to be sent

to the village head today...

Dad.

Why are you drunk again?

You will catch a cold here.

Come on. Let me help you in.

Dad, easy.

Sit down.

Come on.





Where is he?

It is spilled all over the ground.
What's going on?



















It has been blinded.

Did you destroy its eye?



Are you a man or a ghost?

I am Su Yun Tao from Martial Soul Hall.

My name is Tang San.

What's so scary?

Haven't you seen
Martial Soul Shield Body?

Thank you for saving me.

I have to go.

Where are you going?

I'm going to catch the spider.

Kid, do you know

the Human Faced Demon Spider
is cruel and bloodthirsty?

It is a frightening creature

among Soul Beasts.

You were just lucky

that you weren't devoured by it today.

Kid, don't run around

in the forest.

I'm almost a grown-up.

You are almost a grown-up?

Your Martial Soul is
not even in the waking state,

but you managed

to destroy the eye
of the Human Faced Demon Spider.

I just threw out a nail.

It moved too fast and hit it by itself.

Why do you carry nails with you?

My dad is a blacksmith.

Normally,

only Soul Masters can fight Soul Beasts.

It's a miracle for a boy like you

whose Martial Soul hasn't awakened

to blind a Human Faced Demon Spider.

I was just lucky.

Martial Soul is the manifestation

of one's inner strength.

Dad.

I saw a huge spider

in the forest today.

Fortunately, Mr. Su

came to my rescue.

He also gave me a book.

At first,

I thought he was strange.

Later, I realized

that we are the strangest ones.

Dad.

Do you think this book is reliable?

The book says

that everyone in the Douluo Continent

has Martial Soul.

Dad.

Have you been

to any places

beyond the Saint of Soul Village?

The wine is finished.

I'll take care of it.

Dad.

Mr. Su

was really amazing.

And he had Martial Soul.

His Martial Soul could transform.

It looked like a wolf,

very scary.

But he beat off

the huge spider.

He said he was a Soul Master.

Dad, do you know what a Soul Master is?

He also said he was

from Martial Soul Hall.

The huge spider was a Soul Beast

called Human Faced Demon Spider.

I haven't heard of it anyway.

But Dad,

I destroyed an eye

of that huge spider today.

I think

it is pretty good

to become a Soul Master like Mr. Su.

He was charismatic!

Will I have the chance

to be such a Soul Master

in the future?

Did you use your ability?

I used Purple Demon Eye, Ghostly Trace,

and some projectile skills.

Did that guy see it?

Dad, rest assured.

I assure you that he didn't see it.

Dad.

What is a Soul Beast?

I didn't find

any relevant content in the book.

They are fantastic animals
with Soul Ring power.

They can be any kind of animal.

Are they ferocious? Are they man-eaters?

There are good and evil people.
So are the Soul Beasts.

It turns out
that there are good and evil beasts.

Soul Beasts are not wild beasts!

They are

far more intelligent
than ordinary beasts.

The Soul Beasts that have lived
for more than 100,000 years

can change into the human form.

By then, there is no difference

between humans and them.

Are there many Soul Beasts
that change into the human form?

Soul Masters and Soul Beasts
are natural enemies.

Soul Masters hunt
and k*ll Soul Beasts endlessly.

It's never easy for a Soul Beast

to live more than 100,000 years.

Are you the officer

from Martial Soul Hall?

Your place

hasn't held
any Martial Soul Awakening Rite

for a long time, right?

The Saint of Soul Village
is relatively remote.

The road condition is bad.

It's really been a long time
without any Soul Master coming here.

Officer.

Can we have the pleasure
to have someone from Martial Soul Hall

to carry out
the Martial Soul Awakening Rite here?

I will be staying here for two days

to prevent the return
of the Human Faced Demon Spider.

I can carry out
the Martial Soul Awakening Rite.

Thank you, Officer.

I will inform the children

and let them come here tomorrow.

Okay.

The village is surrounded by mountains.

Beyond the mountains is the river.

Where is the river flowing?

To the outside world?

What does

the World of Martial Soul look like?

Maybe it is

not as good as Mr. Su described.

The Saint of Soul Village is safer.

There are neither Soul Beasts
nor Soul Masters.

Tang San!

Village Head?

Village Head, please come in.

I am leaving soon.

Long story short.

Come to my house

after you wake up tomorrow morning.

To repair the roof again?

No.

Officer Su Yun Tao

is going to carry out
the Martial Soul Awakening Rite

for us tomorrow!

Martial Soul

is like a seed

planted by a farmer.

It is planted in everyone's heart.

When the Martial Soul awakens,

the seed no longer sleeps.

It will be awakened!

And then,

when you have

the right Soul Ring one day,

you can become a Soul Master!

A Soul Master?

What about after becoming a Soul Master?

You will be respected by everyone.

Do you want

to stay here and be a nobody

doing chores for your whole life?

Should I help you to tell everyone

to attend the rite?

It can't be done

after a certain age.

In short,

you must come to my house tomorrow.

He is not going!

Dad.

If I

had held out longer today,

I might have been able

to escape by myself.

You don't study Xuan Tian Records

to make your escape,

but to defeat

all Soul Beasts and Soul Masters,

and become
the strongest man in Douluo Continent.

Dad.

Doesn't it sound a bit overstated?

Since you've already known

about the Martial Soul,
Soul Masters, and Soul Beasts,

why didn't you tell me?

I didn't tell you,
but you learned it anyway.

Have you memorized this book?

I have.

Every single word.

Dad, what are you doing?

Since someone from Martial Soul Hall

has come to the Saint of Soul Village,

I can't keep this book anymore.

Why?

Remember.

You must keep everything
about Xuan Tian Records to yourself.

Never tell anyone about it.

I remember that.

Dad.

What exactly is Xuan Tian Records about?

Why have you been telling me to practice it
since I was young,

while I can't tell others about it?

Dad.

Is Xuan Tian Records

related to my mom?

Dad.

No!

Don't eat me!

I'm too skinny, not yummy!

Don't eat me!







Why am I weeping?



Who are you?





Dad.

Go wash up since you are up.

Remember to buy me wine.

I had the same dream again.

It was still the same field of Blue Silver Plant.

I heard a voice

calling my name.

What else did the voice say?

She said she was waiting for me.

The voice sounded

especially warm and gentle.

Could it be my mom?

Ever since I practiced Xuan Tian Records,

I have been having the same dream.

Was it

my mom's voice?

How is Xuan Tian Records related to her?

You are not qualified

to learn about your mom yet.

I will tell you about it

when you are strong enough.

Why do you say that every time?

How strong do I have to become?

Keep practicing.

Will I become stronger
after the awakening of my Martial Soul?

Yes.

Then, I should

join the rite
in the village head’s house.

You are not allowed to go.

You asked me
to become stronger, didn't you?

Dad.

Where is
my Essential Soul Master Handbook?

There wasn't enough firewood,
so I burned it.

I'll gather some firewood later.

Focus on the hands.

It's a Tool Soul, the sickle.

Not too bad.

It is something of a weapon.

Withdraw it using your mind.

Touch it with your right hand.

Kid.

You have no Soul Power,
so you can't be a Soul Master.

Thank you, Officer.





Tang San.

Why didn't you come in?

Mr. Su.

I thought about it all night long.

My dad, the village head,

and you

told me

about the World of Martial Soul

beyond the Saint of Soul Village.

But each one of you

told a different story.

Since you are eager to know,

you should figure it out yourself.

Don't you want to know

what your own Martial Soul

or your family's Martial Soul is?

I can also know
my family's Martial Soul?

Martial Soul can be inherited in the family.

The Martial Soul of either parent

will go to their offspring.

You didn't cower when you
confronted the Human Faced Demon Spider.

I can see that you are

strong-hearted.

I believe that your Martial Soul

may also be powerful and special.

So you are very likely to have

the potential of becoming a Soul Master.

Apart from becoming a Soul Master,

is there any other way to get stronger?

In Douluo Continent,

there are no other possibilities.

I want to get stronger.
I want to be a Soul Master.

Stretch out your right hand.

Blue Silver Plant?

How could it be Blue Silver Plant?

Come out.

Is this my Martial Soul?

This...

Blue Silver Plant

is the commonest useless Martial Soul.

It can neither attack, defend,

nor support.

A person with such a useless Martial Soul

can never be a Soul Master.

I can't get stronger anymore?

Since you are here,

take the test

and see how strong your Soul Power is.

Officer,

with a Martial Soul like Blue Silver Plant,

strong Soul Power is meaningless.

I know.

Come on.

You were born with full Soul Power?

You were born with full Soul Power?

That is one in a million.

Thanks for letting me know

what my Martial Soul is.

I'm quite happy about it.

My dad is waiting
for my return with firewood.

I should get going.

Village Head, I'm leaving.

Tang San.

Do you want to join

Nuoding School?

Don't I have a useless Martial Soul?

Why didn't you

go with Su Yun Tao?

Since you didn't agree with it, I wouldn't leave.

I forbid you to go
to the awakening rite,

but you went there anyway.

Dad, I know I was wrong.

But Mr. Su said

I inherited my Martial Soul

from you and my mom.

I joined the Martial Soul Awakening Rite

in order to know more

about my mom.

What is your Martial Soul?

They told me

it is a useless Martial Soul,

but I still stand a chance.

I can become a Soul Master

and attend Soul Master School.

You chose this path in the end.

I allow you to go,

on two conditions.

You can be a Soul Master,

but you must not join Martial Soul Hall.

Why?

Make a vow.

I vow

that even if I become a Soul Master,

I will never join Martial Soul Hall.

But Dad,

as they said, I've got a useless Martial Soul.

Make the fire stronger.

Aren't you curious

about Xuan Yu Hand's function?

I will tell you now.

Make the fire stronger.

Dad, does the Martial Soul

only manifest on the right hand?

I somehow felt that there was

something hidden in my left hand

when I was
at the Martial Soul Awakening Rite.

Spread your palm.

Focus.

Release the power in your heart.

Twin Martial Souls?

Is having Twin Martial Souls rare?

Make it visible.

Dad.

This is so difficult.

I feel that something in my heart

is suppressing me.

Release your inner strength.

It really is Hao Tian Hammer.

Hao Tian Hammer?

Dad.

This hammer looks ugly.

It's too heavy.

Dad, I can't hold on anymore.

Take it back.

Don't let anyone see

the Martial Soul in your left hand.

I got the hammer and Blue Silver Plant

from you and my mom?

If one day,

this hammer can no longer be restrained,

you must remember

that this hammer is not a tool for k*lling.

It is meant to be a guardian.

A guardian?

What does it guard?

It guards your right hand

and protects the Blue Silver Plant
in your right hand.

Remember.

In the future,

always protect the plant
in your right hand

with the hammer in your left hand.

Always.

I remember it, Dad.

Look.

This is the second condition.

You have to work this piece of iron

into a fine needle.

Then, you can leave.

Dad.

Are you exaggerating it?

Look at me.

It is too fast to be seen.

Use Purple Demon Eye.

I see it clearly.

The hammer

hits it at the same point every time.

It makes no mistake.

This is the gist of Tempering a Thousandfold.

Gather all your strength at one point.

Turn a piece of ordinary metal
into a magic weapon.

This is Xuan Yu Hand.

When you use the hammer,

fill your hands with Qi.

It turns out that Xuan Yu Hand

is for forging.

Dad.

Village Head, I did it!

You are leaving,
but he doesn't even see you off.

Actually, my dad is nice to me.

Nice to you?

He just doesn't know how to express it.

Okay, we'd better hurry.

We have to travel across the mountains.

Come on.
