Chapter 160: The Century-Old Spirit

Chapter 160: The Century-Old Spirit

"A piece of millennium beast meat and some heavenly treasures cooked into a meal, yet it didn't push his soul power to the tenth level. This young one's appetite is even greater than I imagined!"

Sensing the gradually calming power within Wang Si's body and checking his current soul power level once more, Maki couldn't help but sigh.

"Did you feel that power just now?"

Zhen Hua frowned, looking at Wang Si, who had returned to normal, but still couldn't help turning to Maki.

"I felt it. That power was strong and wild; it doesn't seem like something that should be within this little one."

Maki walked over to Wang Si, squeezed his shoulder, and nodded as he sensed the strength of his bones, suddenly realizing something.

"That power...it's likely a powerful dragon-type beast martial soul that failed to awaken fully due to a lack of nutrition during its initial awakening. If we can provide it with sufficient nourishment, we might be able to trigger the awakening of that beast martial soul."

Zhen Hua didn't believe his friend's explanation, but as it concerned the child's future, they had to consider it carefully.

"Have his parents been contacted?"

In his dilemma, Zhen Hua thought of a key question.

Hearing this, Maki looked at Zhen Hua in confusion. "Shouldn't you be using the Blacksmith Association's connections to find them? You can't expect our Martial Soul Sect to help you with this."

Hearing his friend's teasing, Zhen Hua was at a loss for words.

Finally, he left the smithy, took out his soul communicator, and sent a message.

Soon, Wang Si's identity was revealed. He was an orphan from an orphanage in Donghai City whose martial soul had awakened not long ago. Due to his promising talent, he had been adopted by a wealthy couple.

The couple also held some influence in the business world. After Wang Si woke up, Zhen Hua and Maki separately proposed the idea of adopting Wang Si as their own son.

With Wang Si's consent, Zhen Hua quickly found the leader of the Blacksmith Association and expressed his intention to take over Wang Si's custody from the couple.

In the end, the Blacksmith Association only had to pay a small price to adopt both Wang Si and Nar.

It was a buy-one-get-one deal. On the day the adoption was finalized, Zhen Hua eagerly brought the children back to the headquarters of the Blacksmith Association.

In addition, Liu Yue also got the result she had hoped for: the opportunity to access the advanced resources of the Blacksmith Association through Wang Si.

She was even allowed to observe when Zhen Hua was teaching Wang Si.

...

After arriving at the headquarters of the Blacksmith Association, Wang Si no longer had any leisure time.

With one adoptive father and one godfather, he received guidance from them alternately in the mornings and afternoons.

Having realized that there might be an unawakened beast martial soul within Wang Si's body, Maki no longer actively tried to enhance his soul power.

Instead, he focused on training Wang Si's physical and skeletal strength.

In addition to Wang Si, they also discovered that Nar was a fast-improving genius. Although she didn't shine as brightly as Wang Si, she also received special attention from the Blacksmith Association.

Nar seemed to have a preference for studying battle armor and mechas, so the Blacksmith Association pulled some strings and arranged for her to work with a mecha designer and a battle armor designer.

Soon enough, Nar obtained certificates in both mecha design and battle armor design.

She had been adopted by Zhen Hua on a whim, and he didn't really care about such a little girl. The reason he was willing to continue acknowledging her as his adopted daughter was merely to allow Wang Si to stay by his side.

After all, Wang Si seemed to care about this little girl.

This situation continued for almost half a year, and finally, Wang Si's soul power reached the tenth level!

The moment Wang Si's soul power reached the tenth level, Maki took out a spiritual detection device without hesitation and examined Wang Si's spiritual power.

"Ninety-eight spiritual power. You really are a little monster."

Putting away the spiritual power measuring device, Maki couldn't help but sigh.

With a spiritual power of ninety-eight, accommodating a century-old spirit would definitely be a problem.

Maki raised his hand and took out ten spirit balls containing spirits.

"These spirits are all carefully selected based on your martial soul and the beast martial soul within you that doesn't seem to have fully awakened. They are all extremely compatible with your martial soul.

Go ahead and try to sense them. If you feel a connection with any of the spirit balls, then absorb the spirit within."

Maki's tone was casual, as if no matter which spirit Wang Si chose, it would be a gain for him!

Wang Si reached out and grabbed the spirit balls, sensing them one by one before finally choosing one.

Seeing Wang Si's choice, Maki didn't say anything. All the spirits he had prepared were quite suitable for Wang Si.

"Absorb this spirit. According to Zhen Hua, your success rate with the Hundred Refinements has already become quite high. I believe that after absorbing this spirit, you'll be able to successfully complete the Thousand Refinements.

Hmm... Although I don't recommend that you focus too much on blacksmithing, it is still a way for you to become stronger in the future. Moreover, Zhen Hua is truly getting old."

Wang Si rubbed the spirit in his hand and nodded expressionlessly. He then saw Maki off as he left the room.

Opening the spirit ball, Wang Si saw a four-horned young dragon clad in golden scales.

The moment it saw Wang Si, the young dragon let out an unfriendly low roar, seemingly asserting its dominance.

Pap!

Wang Si directly raised his hand and smashed the spirit onto the ground.

He then kicked it, sending it flying until it slammed into the wall and slowly fell to the ground.

"What nonsense is this? An artificially synthesized idiot?"

Although Wang Si hadn't unsealed the Gold Dragon King yet, his other martial soul was the Gold-Eyed Black Dragon King. Even if he didn't use it, his body still exuded a faint dragon's might.

In such a situation, for this spirit to dare to bare its fangs and brandish its claws at him, it had to be an artificial idiot.

Although he was concerned about the intelligence of this artificially synthesized spirit, Wang Si still intended to absorb it.

Here, he just needed to get by with one soul ring, and he didn't have high expectations for the spirit's strength.

"In the past, I didn't have any means to torture others, so some people who played tricks on me died too easily. If you dare to give me a garbage soul skill, I will imprison you and make you wish for death!"

Wang Si extended his right hand and grabbed the spirit, and black strands of power seeped out from his palm.

Facing the crisis of death, the spirit didn't seem like an idiot at all.

It immediately started nodding frantically.
