With the end of his thoughts, his clothes vanished and he was left naked, even his underwear.
Then he took out the furs and put them on before heading out to the backyard of the house and began to train.
On the other side, Wu Zhangkong had now arrived at the Tang Sect branch, and the sect’s AI greeted him in its unique way: “Little Wu Zhangkong from Eastsea City, you’re here again after just a few days.
That’s rare!” “Could you stop using that title?
And open the door please.” Wu Zhangkong replied with his usual coldness, his face unchanged.
“Hah, no reaction as usual.” The AI mocked, but the door opened afterward.
After Wu Zhangkong entered and passed through the branching paths until he reached the door containing spatial technology, he was successfully transported to where the branch’s real operations center was located.
After heading toward the previous wall, the semi-embedded computer in the wall appeared again.
After entering his ID and password, the section for his interface opened.
He checked the inbox and indeed found a reply message from the sect.
After clicking it, the following reply appeared before him: Sender: Black Rank #063 – Tang Sect Intelligence Officer Recipient: Purple Rank #218 – Wu Zhangkong Subject: Reply to report regarding “Mo Ji Wu” – File No.: ZJ-0911 Priority: Medium Wu Zhangkong, Your report dated ##/## regarding the child “Mo Ji Wu” has been received.
After verification via the Spirit Pagoda network and the Federal Union records: 1.
Verification Results: – There is no Spirit Awakening record under the name “Mo Ji Wu” in the Union database before three years ago.
– The personal history stated, “vagrant wandering between cities,” is unverifiable due to lack of supporting documents.
2.
Sect’s Decision: We approve your request to issue a legal forged identity + letter of recommendation to Eastsea City Middle Academy.
Reason: The sect only monitors talents aged 6-12 to assess origin and loyalty.
We do not intervene before real growth and their ability to endure dangerous missions.
Mo Ji Wu’s case: A Soul Master with a rare Eye-type Martial Soul = deserves “Level-2 Monitoring”.
Therefore Mo Ji Wu is now an “External Candidate”.
We only provide him the identity.
The real position and resources come if you accept him as an external member after he proves he complies with the sect’s laws and rules.
3.
Procedures: – A legal forged identity file + sealed recommendation stamp under the name “Deep Blue School” affiliated with the Tang Sect has been sent secretly.
– The Union Awakening record will be updated with a fake awakening date three years ago at Rank 7 Spirit Scholar.
– The cost of the operation, 200 contribution points, was deducted from your personal balance.
You now have 200 contribution points left, as the full amount was 400 points.
Monitor his development, personality, adaptability, and how he lives with the people around him.
If he fits the sect’s laws, he can be invited as an external member with continued monitoring over the years.
After reading the report twice in full, Wu Zhangkong felt relieved seeing that supervision would remain with him.
He had thought that due to the rarity of the Martial Soul he might be poached directly by another branch, but it seemed the rules were the rules after all.
And that was good—he wanted to be the supervisor of a talented person who might reach a high and powerful position in the future.
Next to the computer, a compartment in the wall opened, and inside were identity documents with Mo Ji Wu’s name on them, which could be used at various civil affairs offices to obtain a real ID card.
Why didn’t the sect send a real one?
There was no photo of Mo Ji Wu, and another reason was to make it realistic—if all his documents were issued from different places it would be suspicious, but if he obtained them from Eastsea City with the school’s recommendation and the papers, it would look like an orphan who left the orphanage to become a Soul Master.
The school had year-round dorms; even during holidays students could stay, though most left, and rarely even ten remained.
As for the envelope, it contained the usual recommendation letter certifying that Mo Ji Wu had reached a rank allowing him to graduate early and receive a recommendation.
After placing them in his spatial storage ring and finding no other instructions, Wu Zhangkong left the branch and headed back to the academy.
Unknown to both the old child and the teacher who was younger than his disciple—though he didn’t know it, of course—they were thinking almost the same thing.
‘Hmm…
Is this really what Mo Ji Wu’s Eyes wanted from me and for me to come here?
With a month and a half of travel he could reach most places he wanted on the continent, or at least their branches, especially the Spirit Pagoda, which is the most suitable place for Spirit Masters of the spiritual/mental type.
Its founder is the strongest in that aspect; he opened the path of Spiritual Spirits and a method to upgrade the lifespan of old Spirit Rings, which used to remain fixed from acquisition until death.
He also gave a real classification for Spiritual Power after it had been almost unknown before him.
The credit for the increase in high-rank Spirit Masters goes entirely to him.
Ten thousand years ago there was only one Limit Douluo on the surface—Mu En, head of the Sea God Pavilion at the time—and according to records he broke through by chance while on the verge of death in a fight with an enemy, per Shrek Academy records.
Now there are ten Limit Douluo in the world, or maybe more; his rank only allows him to guess.
But those who reach that power thanks to Battle Armor are plentiful, even though it’s raw power without essence.
Still, this shows the difference Ice God Douluo made to the world—he discovered that breaking through after Titled Douluo relies heavily on the spirit, not just gathering soul power from the world like before.
A Titled Douluo is no longer fully human; his lifespan extends to 300 years, and according to his teacher, every Douluo begins to communicate with the world, and progress at that level depends on one’s understanding of the world and its laws.
The spirit does this; without a strong spirit, a person won’t even reach Super Douluo, let alone Limit Douluo.
And in the past, almost no one focused on the spirit.
Therefore Wu Zhangkong didn’t understand why Mo Ji Wu had an Eye-type Martial Soul and thought, ‘Maybe it isn’t me specifically.
I’m just part of it and happened to be here?
And was used because I’m here?’ Wu Zhangkong thought slowly as he walked until he reached the house.
With his strong Spiritual Power, he could already feel Mo Ji Wu training in the courtyard, and he thought again, ‘It doesn’t matter.
Now he’s just my disciple.’ After entering, he didn’t disturb Mo Ji Wu’s training but let him train, and he would even leave the matter of the documents until after dinner so as not to distract him.
Mo Ji Wu trained for 3 hours—two while Wu Zhangkong was outside, and the last hour after his return.
Since he wasn’t fighting, he would use Body Enhancement once during training, then train with just his body for ten minutes to feel the difference between his body and the enhancement, and be ready to respond to any sudden attack even without activating a Spirit Ring.
Of course, someone who wanted to die wouldn’t think like this; he’d be glad to be killed while off guard, but these thoughts came to him from time to time, and he understood this was the effect of the vow not to commit suicide or actively flirt with death.
Therefore, before he lost control of his body, he could only train like this.
It was true that he lived as a semi-normal human these days, but he hadn’t forgotten for a second his true will: death.
At the end of the third hour, with his physical and soul power nearly exhausted, Mo Ji Wu sat down and began meditating immediately so his effort wouldn’t go to waste.
After another two hours he rose, feeling his meditation control had reached 65% success, and his soul power had increased.
He might even break through to Rank 12 before the semester started if he kept at this pace.
The density too—where the number of semi-transparent soul strands had increased from one to three.
He felt that one of these strands equaled three ordinary strands.
He recalled his teacher’s crystalline solid spiritual energy and felt that the near-pure color wasn’t due to low density but to such high density that the color disappeared and became nearly pure, which made him understand the difference better.
After washing up and having dinner with Wu Zhangkong, instead of his usual entry to meditate after returning, Wu Zhangkong sat down and handed him the papers, saying, “Your identity papers and letter of recommendation.
Tomorrow you can go to the Civil Affairs Office and get an ID card.
Keep them safe.” After Mo Ji Wu took the papers, he felt that getting his ID card would be the start of his true return to the living human world.
