Chapter 2 The Magical Jade Pendant
A controlling disciple is the lowest level of cultivators, and if you cultivate upward, you can also be promoted to the level of controller, master, and master.
However, for a quasi-monk like Lin Song who was exercising his soul, he was an out-and-out senior.
Lin Song came to the big house where the class was located, which was very spacious and could accommodate a hundred students at the same time. But at this time, there were only a dozen teenagers in the big house. This is because most of the children from poor families in the city are busy with their livelihoods and do not have time to attend classes. Moreover, even if they came to attend the class, it was useless, because poor families could not afford to buy soul-enhancing potions for cultivation.
"Hey, look, that poor boy is pretending to be in the fun again!" said a tall young man pointing at Lin Song and grinning.
The young men in the big room looked at Lin Song together, and they all giggled. They are all children of wealthy families in the city, and they look down on Lin Song's background. The tall and sturdy young man who had just made a sarcastic remark was called Tucker, and his father, Tucker Sr., was the steward of the City Lord's Mansion, and he was also the leader of the rich boys.
Lin Song ignored them, quietly took out a pen and paper, and put them on the desk in front of him, ready to listen to the lecture. Mockery and sarcasm have been heard too much on Earth, and now they have immunity.
The content of this class is the cultivation techniques and spells that can be used by the disciple control monks. Lin Song listened carefully and wrote down all the spells in a notebook.
"Hmph! What's the use of the poor boy recording these spells! he'll never get to the prisoner. Tucker sneered again.
At the end of the lecture, the teacher took out another stone pillar and placed it in the center of the stone house, this is a horcrux to test soul power, but it is only effective for a quasi-monk like Lin Song.
"Seventy-eight!"
"Eighty-two!"
This group of teenagers will use their soul power to perceive this stone pillar in turn, and the stone pillar will measure the strength of their soul power. A little light will appear on the ruler above the stone pillar. The scale of the ruler ranges from one to one hundred. After reaching a hundred, you can condense the Candle Flame Soul and become a true Disciple Control Monk.
"Thirty-one!"
Hearing this number, several teenagers led by Tucker laughed. This is Lin Song's soul power. Two months ago, Lin Song's soul power was thirty, but now it has only increased a little, which is too slow.
"Ninety-eight! haha, I'm going to be the prisoner soon!" Tucker smirked at the results of his test.
Lin Song glanced at him with disdain, he knew that Tucker basically had to take a soul booster potion in five days, but it took more than two years to rise to his current soul power. If these potions were supplied to Lin Song, Lin Song believed that he would only need half a year to attack the prisoners.
"Huh, poor boy, aren't you convinced, why do you look at me like that?" Tucker was originally elated, but when he saw Lin Song's expression, he became a little unhappy.
Lin Song didn't answer, just smiled and walked out of the big house. He's going to work in the mines, but he doesn't have time to put his foot on it.
Lin Song's expression angered Tucker even more.
"Hey, poor boy, do you have the guts to go and compete with the Horcrux simulators?" Tucker called out to Lin Song.
Simulated Horcruxes are wooden blocks engraved with soul cultivation runes, simulating real Horcruxes. It can be used by a quasi-inmate like Lin Song.
Lin Song smiled slightly, did not answer, and continued to walk out. Tucker's soul power is three times greater than his, which is a clear bullying of the weak.
"Coward, you don't dare to compete with me, you're a breadworm!"
The bread worm is an extremely cowardly insect of the soul star, and when it encounters the slightest disturbance, it falls to the ground and pretends to be dead. It is a great insult to use the analogy of breadworms to people. If the average teenager had been said like this, he would have been angry a long time ago.
Lin Song's expression did not change at all, the tempering of the two lives made Lin Song extremely mature, and these radical words were useless to him.
Seeing that Lin Song had already walked to the door, Tucker was a little anxious, he especially wanted to teach Lin Song a hard lesson, but he didn't dare to make trouble in class. Tucker took out a fingernail-sized soul crystal from his coat pocket, raised it above his head, and shouted, "Boy, if you win me, this soul crystal will be yours!"
Lin Song, who had already walked to the door of the stone house, couldn't help but move in his heart. The soul crystal is exactly what he needs now, and grandpa's medicine bill for next month has not yet been settled, so it would be great if he could get this soul crystal.
"Okay!" Lin Song agreed.
A group of teenagers hula la-la came to the site of the Horcrux simulation. This land was also established by the lord of the city, and it was specially used for these teenagers who had not yet become official monks to practice manipulating Horcruxes.
In the center of the field there are more than a dozen large and small wooden blocks, some in the shape of a round shield with a diameter of one foot, and some in the shape of long strips or cones, which are used for attacking. The wooden blocks are carved with many runes, and even the faintest soul power can power them.
Lin Song and Tucker each stood on the side of the field, and a teenager shouted "Go!"
Lin Song and Tucker rushed towards the center of the field at the same time, and the soul power control was within a range, and the two of them had to go close to the wooden block to control it.
The two of them pounced on the center of the field at the same time, and six or seven wooden blocks flew up in front of them. However, only one piece is controlled by Lin Song, this is the gap between the soul power of the two, the soul power is strong, and of course it can control more wooden blocks.
"Whoosh!" Wooden blocks of various shapes shot towards Lin Song's head and face, although there would be no fear of his life. However, if you are hit by a wooden block with such a fast speed, you will also be injured.
Lin Song chose a shield-shaped wooden block, and he controlled the wooden block to slowly rotate in front of him to cover his body. At the same time, Lin Song's body swayed from side to side, and the serpentine retreated.
With a clanging sound, the block attacks either missed or were blocked by shields.
"Idiot!" Lin Song sneered at Tucker in his heart as he stepped back. Tucker's soul power is stronger than Lin Song's, and he has more control blocks, but in terms of specific control, he is far worse than Lin Song.
If he controls the attacks, there are at least seven ways to break the Wooden Shield's defenses, and Tucker will only attack straight ahead. These tricks of manipulating wooden blocks have been taught in class, and Lin Song, who usually listens carefully to the class, knows it well, and he only needs a chance.
Tucker's first wave of attacks all failed, and he couldn't help but be a little flustered in his heart, he didn't expect Lin Song to be so good at defending.
The wooden blocks all fall to the ground, and Tucker wants to activate them again with his soul power for a second wave of attacks. This vacancy is exactly what Lin Song wants.
"Hey!" Lin Song shouted, and the shield in front of him was like a huge fly swatter, swatting towards the top of Tucker's head.
The muffled sound of "Bang!" was followed by Tucker's screams. The wooden shield slammed into Tucker's head, knocking him to the ground.
"I won!" Lin Song was overjoyed. The rules of the competition are that only one person is injured first, or falls to the ground, and he loses.
"Bring the soul crystal!" Lin Song reached out to Tucker for the loot.
"No, I wasn't ready just now!" Tucker got up from the ground and immediately began to play tricks.
At this moment, Tucker was also miserable, and a large lump was made on his head by the wooden block, as if he had grown a horn.
"How are you cheating?" Lin Song was shocked and angry.
"You're just a sneak attack!" Tucker suddenly reached out and punched Lin Song in the face. A group of teenagers rushed up and punched and kicked Lin Song, and they were all Tucker's best friends.
"Stop!" someone snapped.
These people stopped one after another, and it was Teacher Mu Mu in the classroom who shouted, a middle-aged man with a serious expression. Teacher Mu Mu is usually very strict, and these teenagers are afraid of him.
"I've watched all of your competitions. Teacher Mu Mu looked at these teenagers with a gloomy face, "You have to be trustworthy when you speak, and if you lose, you will be relied, what kind of hero is that?" ”
Tucker had no choice but to hand the soul crystal to Lin Song. At the same time, he leaned into Lin Song's ear and whispered: "I have written down this hatred, three months later, it will be the day of Xibe City's test of the prisoner, and when the time comes, I will fight with you and beat you half to death!"
In Xibe City, there is a ceremony every year to promote to the control of disciples, and all the young people who cultivate must participate. After the ceremony, there is a fight, which is also to control Horcruxes. According to Tucker's current strength, after three months, he will definitely be able to be promoted to a control apprentice, and when the time comes, Lin Song will be in real trouble!
Tucker walked away with a group of teenagers. Lin Song's nose was broken by him, and he was still bleeding.
"Are you alright?" asked Teacher Mu Mu with concern. He was very sympathetic to his poor but strong student.
"I'm fine, thank you Teacher Mu Mu!" After Lin Song thanked the teacher, he immediately ran home, he still had to wait for his grandfather to take medicine!
Back at home, after a busy time, Lin Song returned to his cabin tiredly. The nosebleed had stopped, but there was a large patch of blood on his chest, and even the white jade pendant on his chest was not spared.
Lin Song took out the jade pendant and wiped it gently, and suddenly felt that there seemed to be a flash of light on the surface of the jade pendant.
Lin Song thought that his eyes were dazzled, and when he looked closely, the light on the jade pendant was gone.
Lin Song raised his head, startled by the world in his eyes, why did everything in the room look so clear, the tiny cracks on the walls, the traces of oil stains on the sheets, the spiders jumping on the cobwebs in the corners of the room, and the delicate ones on their bodies.
Suddenly, Lin Song saw that something under the bed was flashing slightly, and when he looked closely, he reacted that it was the soul crystal that he had stored in the box.
"Huh! Lin Song was very confused, he pulled out the box from under the bed, only to see that the lid of the box was very tightly closed. But I really saw the soul crystal inside through the lid of the box. These soul crystals vary in size and brightness, due to the different soul power they contain.
Lin Song suddenly thought of something, Huo turned his head and looked at the drawer on his desk. Suddenly, Lin Song's hands couldn't help but tremble, because he saw that there was also a misty glowing spot in the drawer.
What's in the drawer? I remember it as a soul stone that hadn't been unsolved.
