Chapter 4, Tao Ge is a diligent worker

Lu Yuan was quite honest. He walked over, and Su Yuntao took his hand, then they walked towards the door, both with smiles on their faces, "Village Head Lu."

Then, his martial soul was guided out by Su Yuntao, and a scythe appeared in his palm

He called to one of the remaining five children in Lujiacun, "Come here, child, what is your name?"

Indeed, I was somewhat presumptuous. Su Yuntao immediately slapped his own forehead, muttering, "What was I thinking? In the past, it was already considered good if one out of ten villages had a child with one or two levels of soul power. How could it be possible for several children with soul power to appear in a single village this year"

"Is this child Lu Yuan?" Lu Wu looked at Lu Yuan, who was beside Su Yuntao, and was instantly filled with excitement

His future prospects are limitless

Therefore, he is now full of enthusiasm, "Xiaoyuan, you wait here for a moment, alright... Next, all of you children come over."

If this is the case, in the world of Douluo, given the vast disparity in strength between humans and soul beasts, the soul beasts would have long been exterminated, leaving only a few soul beasts that are less than ten thousand years old.

Therefore, Lu Yuan increasingly felt that the Spirit Hall was a very upright and free organization for soul masters. Not only does it voluntarily assist civilians in awakening their martial souls, but it also implements measures for soul master registration and subsidies, ensuring that soul masters from civilian backgrounds do not resort to desperate measures for financial gain.

It is merely a stricter attitude towards spirit beasts like Xiao Wu and A Yin, but Lu Yuan believes that the actions of the Spirit Hall are quite reasonable, as spirit beasts and humans are ultimately not of the same race

Most importantly, the Spirit Hall is not as domineering as everyone imagines. They do not even forcibly recruit individuals. The original text mentions that the Spirit Hall's steward, Matthew, has stated that there is no reason for the Spirit Hall to recruit people from the academy.

However, their soul power is uniformly "none".

Moreover, the Spirit Hall is not without its protection for spirit beasts; on the contrary, it is the Spirit Hall that has issued a ban on the slaughter of spirit beasts

Yes! This child's martial soul has mutated. Although it is still a scythe martial soul, it has transformed into an exceptionally powerful one, which he calls the Death Star Demon Scythe. Moreover, this child possesses innate full soul power.

He unusually inquired about the names of each child

Continuously using soul power, Su Yuntao seems to have become somewhat fatigued. The most crucial point is that among these six children, there is truly only one fortunate individual, Lu Yuan, whose martial soul not only underwent a "beneficial mutation" but also possesses innate full soul power

Unification through war will undoubtedly sacrifice many lives, but this is merely a growing pain. Once m.hetushu.com is unified, the people of Douluo Continent will all be citizens of one nation, making the emergence of war almost impossible

Lu Wudun immediately embraced Lu Yuan with a beaming smile and said to the departing Su Yuntao, "Thank you... thank you, my lord!"

The several gods in the Douluo world can be considered as the lords of a planet in the Odyssey universe, and when compared to the Demacia government, which has conquered countless star seas, they are merely larger ants.

Lu Yuan felt that he seemed to have given birth to some... thoughts due to the arrival of the Death Star Demon Scythe

Because, even in the fantasy world of Douluo Continent, despite the existence of soul masters, a group with combat abilities far surpassing those of ordinary people, there are still armies composed of ordinary individuals participating in the war

Honestly, Lu Yuan does not harbor any aversion towards the Spirit Hall. After reading numerous fan novels about Douluo in his previous life, he feels that the Spirit Hall is, in fact, one of the few guiding lights in the world of Douluo Continent

"Alright, I will report this matter to the higher-ups of the Spirit Hall." Su Yuntao smiled and waved his hand, handing Lu Yuan's small hand to Lu Wu, "Next, I need to go to the neighboring Holy Spirit Village to help the children there awaken, so this is goodbye."

Moreover, the Spirit Hall issues wanted notices for soul masters who commit murder without cause, compelling them to refrain from acting recklessly and exercising life and death at will. This aspect is also quite admirable.

However, it is unfortunate that

At that time, he will undoubtedly become a member of the Golden Generation of the Spirit Hall, like Hu Liena and Xie Yue, and will be appreciated by the Spirit Hall

Although war itself is detestable, if it is fought for love and peace, then it is unavoidable

Then, he looked at the remaining four children, as if there was still some hope.

Otherwise, those soul masters who wish to obtain soul bones will inevitably resort to indiscriminate hunting of soul beasts in order to acquire them

Those who are not of my kind will surely have different intentions

Unlike the current situation on the Douluo Continent, where the two great empires are at odds, the border areas occasionally erupt into various wars, and the sacrifices are not limited to soul masters, but also include ordinary people like Lu Yuan's grandfather

Even the leader of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile School, Ning Fengzhi, believes that over the decades, the Spirit Hall has contributed to a relatively peaceful Douluo Continent.

Between soul beasts and humans, although it has not reached the point where one side must face extinction, the situation is certainly not favorable either

However, very soon, Su Yuntao said with some disappointment: "What a pity... Without soul power, you cannot become a Soul Master, so please step aside for now..."

Therefore, in the eyes of Lu Yuan, unification is not an act of great evil for the sake of a greater peace

To maintain the transcendence of their species, humanity must inevitably hunt soul beasts. This is a principle belonging to the laws of the forest and the *Diagram* of the Book of Lin, and it cannot be altered

As for the actions of the Spirit Hall, which seeks to unify the Douluo Continent and subsequently initiate war... it can only be said that this is a matter that may be detrimental in the present but beneficial for future generations

However, Su Yuntao did not feel discouraged; instead, he gently said, "Come, let’s test your soul power. Perhaps you have soul power that can be cultivated"

Having joined the Spirit Hall, he became an exclusive Spirit Master of the Spirit Hall. When the time comes, he will enter the Spirit Master Academy of the Spirit Hall. With the Death Star Demon Scythe in hand, he believes he will not lose to anyone.

I... I am called Lu Ping..." the boy said timidly

The same scene continued to unfold. After Lu Yuan awakened his martial soul, five other children successively awakened their martial souls, all of which were uniformly scythe martial souls—except for one child who, like Lu Yuan, experienced a mutation in his martial soul, transforming from an ordinary scythe into a "rusty scythe".

Due to Lu Yuan, Su Yuntao was now filled with interest in the originally useless and tedious martial soul awakening ceremony, and his attitude had become more gentle.

Overall, Lu Yuan does not harbor any aversion to joining the Spirit Hall and becoming a dedicated soul master of the Spirit Hall

Congratulations! Su Yuntao was all smiles, even changing his form of address, "Congratulations, Village Head Lu, your village has produced a very promising talent this year"

Then why doesn't he join

Some bold ideas

In the original work, to hunt soul beasts, the soul and the spirit master must first go to the Spirit Hall for strength certification, and possess the relevant personnel's proof, in order to be issued a command token to enter the Soul Beast Forest for hunting soul beasts

In an instant, tears shimmered in Lu Wu's eyes, and his body, which had always relied on a cane yet remained remarkably steady, began to tremble. His aged face was filled with joy, and he kept murmuring, "May our ancestors bless us! May our ancestors bless us! May our ancestors bless us..."

Relying on the powerful influence and resources of the Spirit Hall, Lu Yuan believes that he will ultimately become a deity

The door opened, and Lu Wu nervously approached Su Yuntao, "Mr. Su, how is it? Is there any possibility that the children in our village can become soul masters this year?"

Moreover, compared to Soul Masters, ordinary people are more likely to sacrifice themselves on the battlefield

Su Yuntao was completely unaware of what Lu Yuan was thinking, but he was now extremely excited to have discovered such a talented individual with "innate full soul power." Reporting this would surely earn him the bishop's recognition.

"Alright, but this line has yielded some gains as well." He turned to look at Lu Yuan, who had been watching him, and smiled, "Child, come over here with me."

However, the scythe in the boy's hand is simply too miniature compared to the Death Star Scythe that Lu Yuan just awakened.

Becoming a deity will not be the ultimate achievement of Lu Yuan, because... The Death Star Scythe in the Odyssey universe possesses the power that allows Kayn to overthrow the Demacian government and establish his own empire.
