MTL - I Don’t Have a Soul Skill, I’ll Cut Down the Douluo-Chapter 14

"That's good!" People are most afraid of losing their ideals and motivation. Seeing Lin Manshan's high fighting spirit, Matthew Nuo is also relieved. There is a sense of satisfaction that he has done a great deed and got a positive response. He smiled. "Okay, Aman, your advanced evaluation is over. Congratulations, from today onwards, you are a glorious soul master of the Heaven Dou Empire."

"Wait a minute, I'll make a custom badge for you." After speaking, he turned around and returned to the desk. He took out a round badge and an unknown machine from the drawer. After a while, he put the badge in and folded it. Press, take out the badge and walk towards Lin Manshan.

"Here, Aman, this is your exclusive badge. From now on, you can take this badge to the Wuhun Temple to receive subsidies. The subsidy for spirit masters is 1 gold soul coin per month, and 10 for the great soul master. In addition, I will report the situation of your martial spirit. If there is a similar record on it and a corresponding solution is passed down, I will tell you when you come next time."

"Also, Aman, your current situation with martial arts. After graduating from the elementary spirit master academy in Notting City, to be honest, I don't think it is very good for me to enter the intermediate spirit master academy." Not to mention other academies, even Wushu Soul Temple Academy doesn't know if they will accept it or not. If there is no soul skill, how can this be taught? There is no precedent before... Matthew Nuo sighed and continued: "Aman, there is really no place to go in the future, why don't you join our Wuhun Hall and come to me as a guard. It can be regarded as a stable job to support the family. Hukou is absolutely fine."

"Thank you, Grandpa Matthew Nuo." Lin Manshan took the badge and said politely: "However, I'm afraid I can't come to the Wuhun Temple as a guard. I was an apprentice in the blacksmith shop in the city two years ago. Go back to the village and become a blacksmith, there is a shortage of blacksmiths in the village now.”

Two years ago, Lin Manshan was only six years old at that time. He knew how to work and study at a young age, but he was a hard-working child... Matthew Nuo nodded with a smile, "I can help the villagers make farm tools, and I can also bless the village. It's not bad to be a blacksmith."

"Hey..." Lin Manshan smiled, then bowed slightly, "Grandpa Matthew Nuo, then I'll go back to the academy first."

"Well, let's go." Matthew Nuo nodded, took out a gold soul coin from his arms and handed it to Lin Manshan.

"Goodbye, Grandpa Matthew Nuo." Lin Manshan took it, saluted slightly, turned to leave, and gently closed the door.

"Grandpa Matthew Nuo..."

Hearing the sound of footsteps moving away, Matthew Nuo couldn't help but smile. For a child, the name changed from master to grandfather, which is undoubtedly an expression of closeness and recognition, "What a kind and simple child."

He straightened his chest and turned back to his seat.

......

The entrance to Notting College.

As soon as he approached, Lin Manshan was stopped by the guard.

"Lin Manshan student!"

When Lin Manshan approached, the guard said politely, "I received a notice to let you go to the dean's office."

"The dean called me? Is there something wrong?" Lin Manshan was also an old acquaintance with the guard in front of him. On the first day at the academy, this was the one who obstructed Old Jack.

"I don't know." The guard shook his head.

"Director Su came to me just now and told me that as soon as I saw you coming back, I would notify you to go to the dean's office."

"Okay, sorry to trouble you." Lin Manshan nodded.

Immediately walked towards the teaching building.

Chapter 31 Early Closing

After knocking on the door of the dean's office and receiving a response, Lin Manshan pushed the door open.

There were only two people inside, the dean, and Yu Xiaogang, who was sitting on the sofa with him drinking tea.

"President, do you have something to do with me?" Lin Manshan walked to the tea table and bowed slightly.

"Yeah." The dean nodded, and then said, "Student Ah Man, I'll keep the story short. Regarding your martial spirit question, I discussed it with the master just now. I'm sorry, but I didn't come up with a solution. , In the past two years, the academy has taught you almost as much knowledge. With the current situation of your martial spirit, the academy doesn't know how to teach it next."

"Therefore, after deliberation, I decided to let you graduate early. Now that you have obtained your first spirit ring, you just meet the graduation requirements, so doing so is considered to be in compliance with the regulations."

"Also, I think it's just a waste of your time to let you stay in the academy. It's better to let you go out. Aman student, maybe you can try a more advanced intermediate academy, even if you can't solve the martial spirit problem, new knowledge can be learned.”

Glancing at Yu Xiaogang, Lin Manshan nodded, "Students understand." After speaking, he bowed slightly towards the dean, "Thank you for the two years of teaching at the academy."

"Hey, the academy's capabilities are limited." The dean shook his head, picked up a piece of paper from the table and handed it over, "Student Ah Man, this is your certificate of completion. I hope you can find a middle-level soul master academy you like next. Go further on the road of soul master."

Lin Manshan nodded, took the certificate of completion, and bowed slightly, "Then the student will leave."

After speaking, he turned to leave, and gently closed the door.

Seeing Lin Manshan's polite behavior, the dean flashed a trace of unbearableness in his heart, but it quickly dissipated. He glanced at Yu Xiaogang beside him, picked up the tea on the table and drank it.

After being the dean for many years, he naturally heard that Yu Xiaogang's proposal was carrying personal resentment.

However, the academy really couldn't continue to teach Lin Manshan, so it might really be a good choice to let him graduate early.

Moreover, at the third level of innate soul power, martial souls cannot produce soul skills, and their achievements are indeed limited. In addition, Lin Manshan had a bad relationship with Tang San Xiaowu, who was in the same dormitory. He had also heard about it. After weighing the pros and cons, it was not impossible to sell personal feelings along the way.

After all, Yu Xiaogang's disciple Tang San and Xiao Wu were all born full of soul power.

......

Walking out of the Academic Affairs Building, Lin Manshan walked straight back to the dormitory.

Although he had been in the academy for two years, he didn't have much to pack. He only had a quilt and a few changes of clothes. As for the hidden weapon accessories, because there was no soul tool, he hid it in the blacksmith shop.

"Aman, who are you?"

At this time, it was lunch break, and the students were basically there, including Tang San and Xiao Wu. Seeing Lin Manshan packing and packing the mattress, the little boy sitting on the other bed not far from Lin Manshan couldn't help asking questions.

"I graduated early."

Lin Manshan tied the quilt on his back, picked up the package, smiled and looked around at his roommates, bowed slightly, "Thank you for your company during this time, and I wish you all a happy life in the college and success in your studies in the future."

"There will be an expiration date." After speaking, under the slightly surprised eyes of everyone, they walked out of the dormitory.

"Hmph, this bastard, it's better to go." Seeing that there were no footsteps outside the door, Xiao Wu wrinkled her nose, waved her fists, and snickered in schadenfreude, "Heh, this guy must have been dropped out of the academy. Martial Soul If you can’t produce soul skills, what kind of soul master do you still need?”

Tang San had already told her about Lin Manshan's situation during lunch just now.

"Martial spirit can't produce spirit skills!?" The surrounding students who didn't know about it were stunned for a moment, and their eyes looking towards the door were filled with sympathy.

Martial souls cannot produce soul skills, and even if they graduate normally, it may be impossible for them to enter other academies in the future.

"As the teacher said, talent already decides everything." Tang San sighed, shook his head, jumped out of bed, turned to look at Xiao Wu.

"Xiao Wu, I went to work at the blacksmith shop."

"Hey, I have nothing to do again in the afternoon." Xiao Wu's face suddenly became bitter, then her eyes rolled, and she turned to look at the surrounding dormers.

"Let's go, this afternoon, Sister Xiao Wu will lead you to continue to be chivalrous and righteous!"

What kind of chivalrous and righteousness is clearly finding fault. Whoever dares to make trouble now in the academy will be afraid of being beaten by you for a long time... The only few working students left in the dormitory twitched their lips, but in awe of the lewdness, they honestly jumped out of bed and followed Xiao Wu.

Tang San looked at Xiao Wu, who was jumping away, with doting eyes, shook his head, and followed him out of the dormitory.

Xiao Wu is now his younger sister. At such a young age, it's not a bad thing to be lively and active.

......

On the other side, after walking out of the academy, Lin Manshan did not hesitate and walked straight towards the blacksmith shop.

Not long after, the blacksmith shop door.

"Aman, who are you?"

Looking at Lin Manshan walking in from the door, Brother Tieshan who was working quickly put down his hand and trotted forward, while helping Lin Manshan unload the quilt, while asking, "What happened? Why did you come with the quilt on your back?"

"Uncle Tieshan, I graduated from the academy." Lin Manshan explained his situation with a smile.

"Martial spirit can't produce spirit skills!?" The crowd around opened their mouths, not knowing how to comfort them for a while.

"It's okay, it's not that I can't continue cultivating." Lin Manshan broke the atmosphere with a smile, then turned to look at Tieshan, "Uncle Tieshan, you are familiar with the environment here, can you help me find a quieter kid in the near future? The courtyard, preferably the one with the backyard, I want to buy a house like this as a residence and stay in Notting City temporarily. By the way, I will build a small private forging room in the backyard, and I can practice casting directly at home after my practice. Skills, by the way, help you temper pig iron."

Of course, it was also for the convenience of monitoring Tang San's wool at zero distance. The civilian area was not too far from the academy.

"Also, Uncle Tieshan, as you know, my cultivation talent is just average, but now that I have broken through the soul master, the speed of my soul power cultivation will probably become slower, and I must spend more time on cultivation. It just so happens that I have also graduated from the academy, and I will have more time in the future. But in this case, I am afraid that I will not be able to come to your shop to work often in the future."

"It's okay, you've already become a soul master, so naturally you have to focus on your cultivation. Besides, our brothers have nothing to teach you. It's also a good idea to practice forging at home. As for tempering pig iron, if you have the rest, Uncle Tie, I can just buy it from you at the market price, haha, the pig iron you tempered has helped us blacksmiths accumulate a lot of good reputation in the past two years." Tie Shan smiled, "As for the finished iron, you If it is made, it can be sold directly in Uncle Tie's shop."

"Thank you, Uncle Tieshan." Lin Manshan said seriously.

"It's alright, I'll let your aunt help you go to Yazi to ask about the yard. When it comes to bargaining for a house, your aunt is more agile. Until then, you can just live in the shop." , Tie Shan patted Lin Manshan on the shoulder, "Aman, you don't need to be discouraged about martial arts, you may not be able to become a powerful soul master without soul skills, but I heard that some powerful soul masters can create their own souls. If it’s a big deal, we’ll create it ourselves. The rumored hammering technique in the blacksmith world is also said to be a self-created soul skill. Aman, I don’t think your casting skills are any different. Can it be ground into a needle? Take your time, just in case it becomes."

What a coincidence, what you said happened to me... Lin Manshan nodded again and again, "Well, I will try my best."

"One more thing, Aman, since you have graduated from the academy, you don't need to take classes in the future. If possible, Uncle Tie hopes that you will have time to go to the Blacksmiths Association in Gengxin City of the Star Luo Empire to be certified as a A real blacksmith, this is my selfishness. Uncle Tie, my biggest wish was to advance to become a master blacksmith and honor my ancestors. Unfortunately, Uncle Tie's talent and understanding are really poor, and he is still only an intermediate blacksmith. I'm afraid there is no hope."

Speaking of this, I scratched my head a little embarrassedly.

"To tell you the truth, when you came to apply for an apprenticeship, the reason why Uncle Tie agreed so succinctly and asked these uncles to hand over their skills to you is because you saw your talent, and I hope you will one day. Can you help me realize this wish." After speaking, he looked at Lin Manshan with hope, "Aman, are you willing to inherit Uncle Tie's wish?"

If Lin Manshan agrees, it is actually a disguised admission that he is half of his master. As an ordinary civilian blacksmith without soul power, let a soul master and Miaozi with great blacksmith talent admit this. To be honest, he still quite nervous.

"Well, I would."

Lin Manshan agreed without hesitation, "Uncle Tie, uncles, you have taught me with all your heart in the past two years, and you have taught me your skills. In my heart, I have long regarded you as my own teachers. They all say that everything is difficult at the beginning, you guys. Two years of teaching has undoubtedly helped me a lot, and I have the grace of enlightenment, how can I not repay it?"

"Uncle Tie, you can rest assured. I will definitely be able to help you fulfill your wish, and my goal is not only to become a master blacksmith, but a legendary master craftsman." Lin Manshan said proudly.

The power of the soul has been practiced to the extreme, and it can be used to enter the soul of any weapon like the eternal night of the ancient Ming clan. He also wants to have a way to use the weapon he made to enter the soul one day, and then use a machete in one hand. , killing the Quartet.

In addition, the Gengxin City Blacksmiths Association seems to have an auction hall as well. There are also large storage soul tools for sale.

The height of the building is also considered a man, and he is also a blacksmith, so he should not mess with me.

It happens to be a good place to sell spirit bones, but, be careful about that bishop of the Spirit Hall...Lin Manshan secretly said.

"Okay, okay..." Tie Shan was instantly overjoyed, his face flushed slightly with excitement.

After listening to Lin Manshan's words, the surrounding blacksmiths also turned red, and their faces were full of joy.

Lin Manshan's words are equivalent to directly admitting that he is the disciple they taught together. In the future, if Lin Manshan can become famous in the blacksmith world and become a real master craftsman, then they will also play a role, and this life will be worth it.

What's the matter, I must take good care of myself during this time, strive to live longer, until my great-grandson is born...

The blacksmiths spoke the truth in their hearts.

So, Lin Manshan temporarily lived in a blacksmith shop.

PS: Tieshan knew about the existence of his self-created soul skills because the Blacksmiths Association was a professional exchange group.

The dean of Notting College is neither a good person nor a bad person, but he is definitely a person, so he told the protagonist a lot of reasons. Not only is it to avoid the protagonist Xianyu turning over and offending, but also to drive the protagonist away at Yu Xiaogang's will. Before he let Yu Xiaogang eat free food at the academy for so many years, he was actually interested in Yu Xiaogang's identity and relationship, which was considered an investment.

There is no pie in the sky, and no one will be nice to a person for no reason, especially in the world of Gaowu.

Let's just say it. There is not much hydrology to focus on describing this supporting character.

Chapter 32 The right leg bone of the One Hundred Thousand Years Blue Silver Emperor.

Aunt Tie's work efficiency was very fast, and she found a suitable courtyard for Lin Manshan the next afternoon.

Notting City is a town built on water. People with status live in the upper reaches of the river and enjoy the cleanest water source. This is the case with Wuhun Hall, Notting Academy, and the City Lord's Mansion. The civilian gathering place is located in the lower reaches of the river, and the small courtyard that Aunt Tie found for him is located in the middle and lower reaches of the lower reaches.

However, even so, the environment is quite good. There are not only undeveloped hills next to it, but also a beautiful environment and its own vegetable fields. The location is also close to the backwater bay, which satisfies the water source problem necessary for the blacksmith shop. At the same time, because it is in the convex part of the curve, the upper-class household garbage rarely floats here.

The most important thing is that in this world still in the ancient feudal society, the land is vast and the people are sparse, and the environment has not been overdeveloped and destroyed by human beings. As long as you live by the river, you can dig a hole and have pure running water, and there is a well at home. Now, you don't have to worry about getting sick from drinking it.

The original owner of the yard was a small trader. Now that he has the savings, he has already bought a house in the middle and upper reaches, and just wanted to make a move. But because the location is a bit remote, and Notting City is a small town, there is not much population, so no one has ever bought it, even though the yard is quite big enough for a family of five to live. This happened to be cheaper for Lin Manshan, and it took twelve gold soul coins to win it.

After all, the main body is a wooden house, and there are forests around Notting City. It is not expensive to cut it down casually.

There is no popping population, no real estate speculators, and the price of land is cheap, so the housing price is so real.

Because of the Soul Master badge, going to the City Lord's Mansion to go through the transfer procedures to get the land deed went smoothly. After cleaning up, Lin Manshan lived in the yard.

And that night, there was good news.

Tang Hao returned to Notting City.

In fact, Tang Hao had been away for a few months since Tang San returned home from the annual leave of the first semester. Since then, Tang Hao has been living in the house not far from Notting College, and has nothing to do to spy on Tang San's daily life. After two years of annual leave, as soon as Tang San returned to the Holy Spirit Village, Tang Hao would leave alone for a month, and when Nuoding College started, he would come back to continue guarding Tang San.

Of course Lin Manshan knew why.

It's nothing more than that after Tang San returned to the Holy Spirit Village, the poor village was remote and safe, and he could see his wife.

And when he entered Notting City, someday a big old man would suddenly see through Xiao Wu's identity, and take away the spirit ring and spirit bones on the spot.

And this time, he left and came back, which happened to be the start of the third semester of Notting College.

In other words, Tang Hao will not leave until February next year.

"It's still mid-March, don't worry, I will try my best to cultivate my soul power first, and let my body reach the best condition before setting off. In this way, even if I encounter a powerful soul beast in the forest where the Blue Silver Emperor is, I will avoid and escape. Ability."

Thinking of this, Lin Manshan closed his eyes and continued to practice.

The next morning, when the sky was still bright and the forest was full of mountains, I got up, finished breakfast, and practiced the sword technique around the yard as usual. After returning home, after the craftsmen who built the forging room came, he led him into the backyard, and immediately entered the room to continue cultivating his soul power, both in the afternoon and evening.

Completely immersed in the cultivation of soul power, he only sleeps for two hours almost every day.

In such a compact daily life, time is passing little by little, and it will soon come to May. In the past two months, although there was hardly any increase in soul power, the soul power in the body was already full, and his height had soared to 1.52 meters. Maybe it will take another year or two to achieve Yao Ming's height.

"King Kong Is Not Bad Dazhai Master"

In addition, the forge room in the backyard has also been built.

And Lin Manshan was also ready to go.
