No.1 Supreme Warrior by Moneto

Chapter 1976

“You don’t have to speak to me like that; I have a reason for saying what I said. Martial art techniques

or martial skills with the soul attribute can be considered one of the more difficult to practice. I wouldn’t

have any questions if you’ve practiced martial art techniques or martial skills of the five elements

attributes. Think of this as me persuading you. Even the masters in the sect don’t simply train for the

martial art techniques or martial skills with the soul attribute, let alone those like you, a newly recruited

informal disciple.”

Noel did not exaggerate in his words. Among all the martial art techniques and martial skills, those that

belonged to the five elements were the easiest to be practiced.

Even though the power unleashed after they achieved the level of completion was not as strong as the

martial art techniques and martial skills of other attributes, it was easy to practice those, and the

possibility of success was also much higher.

Noel rubbed his slightly red eyes and leaned back in his chair, unhurriedly continuing, “Throughout the

years, those who were able to achieve the level of completion when practicing the martial art

techniques or martial skills with the soul attribute are those extremely talented formal disciples. Even

the chosen disciples wouldn’t simply try this unless your soul is very special, or you’re just extremely

talented. I don’t think you’re any of those, though. Why else did you not join the proper informal disciple

assessment and join the sect in such a way?”

For disciples like Noel, assessment for the informal disciples previously could not be considered as a

usual way of assessing disciples. They could only describe this as an unusual way to do things at an

unusual time.

jackieie did not want to continue an entanglement on this issue with Noel, thus he calmly interjected, “I

just chanced upon this opportunity. You don’t have to teach me these things, Senior brother Noel. I

came to the Soul Hall to increase my speed in training the martial skill, and I’ve already made up my

mind. These words won’t affect my decision.”

Noel raised his eyebrows and chuckled in contempt. He was not that involved with jackieie; he just

wanted to remind him out of goodwill. He would not waste time talking to jackieie, then, since jackieie

was not appreciative.

He raised his chin toward jackieie. “As per our usual rules, training for a day costs you ten sect

contribution points. It doesn’t matter how long you stay inside throughout the day-it’ll still be counted as

one day.”

Ten contribution points each day?! This meant that the reward jackieie obtained could only pay for five

days in the hall!

jackieie could not help but secretly exclaim at the thought.

This was quite expensive, more so than what he imagined it to be. He initially thought that the 50 sect

contribution points he had were enough to support him to train for one month, but it seemed like wishful

thinking at this point.

Noel seemed to have realized the slight surprise on jackieie’s face. With a cold smile, he commented,

“Ten sect contribution points a day isn’t expensive. You need to think about it: The Soul Hall requires

the support of power while you’re training, and this uses up a lot of spirited crystals. As payment for the

power consumption, you only need to pay ten contribution points a day. Even I feel that this is quite a

small amount that we need to pay.”

Before he arrived, jackieie had already heard that the Soul Hall was actually a large formation, and its

function was to raise the speed of somebody practicing the martial art technique or martial skill that

belonged to the soul attribute. Since it was a large formation, it required power to run itself, and this

meant that a lot of spirited crystals were required. Considering this, ten contribution points a day could

not be considered a huge amount.

Noel looked up and continued speaking, “I need to inform you something beforehand. I don’t care if you

stay inside for as long as a joystick burns or as long a s somebody drinks a cup of tea, but you have to

pay me ten contribution points. Although ten contribution points isn’t a large amount, it’s great fortune

enough for newly recruited informal disciples like yourself. Let me give you another piece of warning:

People that are untalented like yourself shouldn’t waste time on martial art technique or martial skill

with the soul attribute. The soul is something illusory and hard to understand.”

Chapter 1977

“Stop thinking that you’re stronger than any other person. Many had the same train of thoughts like you

do, but they were examples to those who came after them that this is wishful thinking.” Noel was not

Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt

reminding jackieie; he was taunting jackieie for overestimating himself. Just like what he said, there

were so many disciples in the sect, but only a very small number of people practiced the martial art

techniques and martial skills of the soul attribute.

After all, the soul was an illusory thing, and it was untouchable like the five elements. Numerous

seniors had trained the gold, wood, water, fire, and earth elements, and they could be used as

references.

jackieie merely gave a small nod wordlessly, to which Noel chuckled without a care and continued,

“Since you insist on going in and wasting those ten contribution points, there’s nothing else I can say.”

Noel did not believe that jackieie would be capable of hastening his mastery over his martial art

techniques or martial skills after he entered the hall. To Noel, that was impossible. It might be possible

if jackieie had broken through into the intermediate stage of innate level, but judging jackieie’s fighting

prowess, he knew jackieie had just achieved the initial stage of the innate level. He did not have the

strength to have a soul enlightenment.

“I won’t waste my time talking nonsense with you. Pick a difficulty level-there are seven of them. The

easiest one is level one, and difficulty level seven is exceptional. In fact, I don’t even have to ask you

this. The most you can do is stay in difficulty level one, probably lasting as long as somebody finishing

their tea or a joystick burning.” He lazily stood up from his chair and picked up the formation of jade

strips in front of him, adding a couple of runes that jackieie did not understand on the jade strips.

Just as Noel was about to inject energy, however, jackieie interrupted him.

“I’d like to train in difficulty level two.”

“What? You want to go for difficulty level two? Young man, can you not rush in when you know

nothing? Even chosen disciples won’t be able to stay inside for longer than the time taken to finish tea

if I start difficulty level two, let alone you!” Noel was borderline yelling at this point, looking at jackieie as

though he had gone crazy.

Exasperatedly, Noel added, “You shouldn’t think that there isn’t a big difference in the levels when there

are only seven difficulty levels. I’m telling you that there’s a big difference, and opening the difficulty

level two has a stronger effect on the soul that’s several times more than difficulty level one. People like

you won’t be able to take it once you enter the formation. You’ll be forced out by the strong souls

inside, and you might change the level later. You have to be joking with me right now.”

Even after Noel finished his rant, jackieie’s expression did not change much. “I want difficulty level two.”

Noel was rendered speechless instantly, and the corners of his mouth twitched. He felt that not only

was this guy’s brain filled with water, he probably had been kicked by a donkey, too. He spent his

energy explaining things, only for it to be wasted as this guy ignored everything.

He chuckled and felt that jackieie was absurd. “Young man, do you think that I’m joking with you? If you

can’t take it, your soul might be wounded. A soul wound isn’t funny, and I need to be responsible for

that. It doesn’t matter if you end up dead or disabled for life, but you might cause me to be punished by

the upper management. Who did I offend to end up with this?”

Chapter 1978

Noel grew increasingly angry as he spoke. He could not help but rush forward to slap jackieie harshly

on his naïve-etched face so that he would wake up from his daydream. He would not have said so

much to jackieie if he would not be severely involved if jackieie’s soul was hurt.

“Do you know what you’re talking about? Adjusting the difficulty level to level two, and I’m sure that you

won’t last longer than a person drinking their tea. You’ll come running out with your tail between your

legs after I take several breaths.” Noel looked at jackieie like he was looking at a stubborn fool. jackieie

sighed lightly, knowing very well that his actions must translate to him being an idiot in the eyes of

people like Noel.

However, he did this because he did not want to waste time. After all, the usual difficulty would not be a

huge improvement to a martial skill at the level o f the Destroying the Void. In fact, he asked Noel to

adjust the difficulty to level two because he did not understand if this was useful to him under such

difficulty.

jackieie said helplessly, “You don’t need to worry. If anything happens to me when I’m inside, I’ll inform

the elders or deacons that I did this on my own will, that it had nothing to do with you. I’ll make sure that

this won’t implicate you.”

Noel lightly curled the corners of his mouth, no longer knowing what to say. He rolled his eyes and said,

“Nevermind. Since you insist on ignoring my persuasion and ignore the possibility of wounding yourself,

there’s nothing much that I can say. I need to tell you, though, that the wounds to the soul can’t be

stopped by common pills, and it’ll directly affect your training in the future. You shouldn’t lose your

future because of your temporary curiosity or because you want to act tough to me.”

jackieie raised his eyebrows and said calmly, “You don’t have to worry; I’m in no mood to act tough in

front of anyone. You can just adjust the difficulty level to level two.”

Noel scoffed, thinking to himself that jackieie would not give up unless he faced the consequences.

From the insufferably arrogant expression on jackieie’s face when he spoke, he seemed to think that

he could stay in the difficulty level two area for one to two days.

He wanted to see the expression on this guy’s face when he could not stand it anymore and came out

himself. Noel stretched out his hand, harrumphing as he declared, “Hand over your identification card.

I’ll deduct the contribution points to pay for one day.”

jackieie nodded and handed Noel his identification card obediently. Noel proficiently deducted ten of

jackieie’s contribution points. Although it was merely ten points, jackieie still felt unhappy about it.

There were only 40 sect contribution points left on his identification card, and he would finish the

remaining 40 points soon. If he wanted to continue training, he had to make time and earn himself

some contribution points.

“Alright, I’ve arranged the difficulty and set the time. You can go in now. Let me just make something

clear: If anything happened to you inside, it has nothing to do with me. I’ve already persuaded you and

all, and you should stop acting tough. Just get out if you can’t handle it. Don’t force yourself to

withstand things as it isn’t worth it when your soul gets wounded, turning you into a dummy.”

jackieie nodded as he put his identification card away. He walked toward one of the small doors that

was one monthnally behind him. However, Noel spoke up again behind him as he was about to cross

the threshold,” You need to understand that even chosen disciples have a record of staying inside for a

maximum of three days and three nights. If you turn into a dummy because of your impulsive moves, I’ll

be affected by your actions.“

Noel felt his head hurt when he thought of this possibility. This newly recruited informal disciple is like

an idiot who could not be stopped even if ten bulls were pulling him back.

If something bad happened to jackieie inside, Noel would be implicated if he could not explain that he

had already persuaded jackieie but jackieie insisted on entering the room. He could be punished if it

was something minor, or he could be imprisoned if it was something serious.

He felt his stomach hurt when he thought about this.

jackieie nodded without turning back. He understood that Noel was telling him all this crap because

Noel was worried for his personal gain, but that was understandable.

Chapter 1979

This was a pitch-black world, and it made a person’s heart tingle. Everything around him was

enveloped In darkness. jackieie stretched out his hand and subconsciously groped around him, but

there was nothing around him. It did, however, make him feel as if it was difficult to walk.

The space he was in was very different from the space outside, and the darkness in this place was also

very much different compared to the darkness outside. If he compared the space outside like a clear

spring in a stone pond, this area was like a pot of cooked porridge as it had an unspeakable stickiness

to it.

He balled both his hands into fists, and it seemed like he had caught the space around him in his

hands. This was the true center area of the Soul Hall, and it was also the place that could help him

improve his training of martial skill.

In fact, he was able to recognize from what Noel said that it was not easy to train here. However, he did

not back away and continued to walk two steps ahead. As he was about to walk forward again, the

abrupt sound of gusts blowing over treetops subconsciously startled him.

Following that, another wave of wind came blowing toward him. This gust was different from the usual

wind outside. It blew straight toward jackieie, ignoring the skin and bones, blasting straight against his

soul. The wind felt like sharp knives, and it was an unspeakable pain. It was so painful that jackieie

could not stand, causing him to kneel.

“Why is it so painful?” jackieie subconsciously wailed. The strong wind continued to blow toward him,

blasting right against his soul. It felt like a large ax was dealt against his soul.

This hurt several times more compared to the attack against jackieie’s body. jackieie had a higher pain

endurance compared to common folk, but he still wailed out in pain. His breathing also slowed down.

Was this what it meant by the second level of difficulty?

No wonder Noel repeatedly said that this level of difficulty was not something usual people could

withstand, and what he said seemed to be true. jackieie dared not delay and started activating

Destroying the Void. He allowed the activation tactics of Destroying the Void to continuously course in

his body.

After three turns, jackieie managed to slightly subdue the soul-stabbing pain. jackieie had to thank the

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm

fact that he did not practice a common martial skill, but a martial skill that was at least at the heaven

level.

Activating usual martial skill would also make it difficult to withstand such impacts on the soul.

Following the suppression of such pain, jackieie also started to understand the waves of soul power

lashing out on his body.

It turned out that the wind blowing toward his body was not wind. In fact, they were soul-shockwaves

formed by the coagulation of souls. These soulshockwaves were not aggressive and seemed to be

formed by the gathering of actual souls. He could even feel the last wails of these souls to the world

before they physically perished.

“Let go of me! I don’t want to die!”

“You b*stard! You filthy, worthless *sshole! I’ve groomed you with so much care throughout the years,

and you repay me by betraying me! You even killed me!”

“I’m sorry… Can you please let go of my child? You only hate me, but this has nothing to do with my

child. My death would’ve paid for all my debts.”

The last words of the dead had been integrated into the souls. These words rang incessantly in

jackieie’s ears as the souls transformed into soul-shockwaves that flurried toward jackieie. The desire

to stay alive and the fear of death continuously challenged jackieie’s determination.

Chapter 1980

The shockwaves formed by the concentration of souls kept rushing into jackieie’s soul. Although the

activation of the Destroying the Void by jackieie withstood the pain brought on by these soul

shockwaves, he was not entirely immune to them. The soul-shockwaves came rushing toward him

continuously and caused jackieie’s soul to feel waves of stabbing pain.

This, however, did not trouble jackieie-he was, in fact, delighted. After all, he had finally found the

crucial reason as to why he could not form the second soul sword. In the past, jackieie’s soul had been

extremely stable, and he would not feel anything extraordinary If he was not stimulated.

Just like what Noel had said, the soul was an illusory item. Without special stimulants, jackieie was able

to feel the soul but was unable to feel many other things. However, these soul-shockwaves kept

charging against jackieie’s soul, inflicting impact after impact. jackieie also used this opportunity to

master the motion of his soul.

Forming a soul sword happened to require the soul motion and everybody’s soul motion was different.

This was why the great master’s perceptions and experiences were unable to help jackieie in forming

the soul sword.

The great master had a different soul motion compared to jackieie, and when he practiced Destroying

the Void, he was extremely powerful. Hence, it was a simple thing for him to feel his soul motion, which

was completely different for jackieie. jackieie was not so strong at the moment, and he was unable to

feel or master his soul motion as easily as the great master,

However, jackieie was able to slowly do it under the attack of the soul-shockwaves. He held his breath

and gathered his attention, allowing the soul shockwaves to continuously attack his soul. He then

activated the Destroying the Void and continued in his attempt to form the second soul sword!

In the Soul Hall, different disciples were in charge of the matters there at different time periods. Noel

would be the Soul Hall’s minor steward for 20 days, and unless something unexpected happened, he

would be the highest person in charge of the Soul Hall.

Of course, Noel was not the only one guarding the Soul Hall during this period. Two other runner

disciples were in charge of the hall’s cleanliness, and the person in charge of cleaning this day was

somebody Noel was very familiar with, Zayn Allen.

The two of them were relatives, and even though they were not as close, they shared a much better

relationship than the others.

Zayn made his way into the Soul Hall in a familiar manner with the cleaning tools in his hands. He

immediately saw Noel standing in front of the Array Eye Door in an upright manner, which puzzled him.

Normally, Noel would be sleeping on the table when he had some free time. Zayn seldom saw Noel

standing in front of the Array Eye Door with his eyes fixated on the door as if he was studying

something.

Zayn raised his eyebrows and subconsciously asked,” Senior Brother Noel, what are you looking at?!”

Noel was obviously startled by Zayn’s voice as his entire body trembled, his expression contorted

darkly. “What are you yelling for? Is there something wrong with you?! You frightened me!”

Zayn, meanwhile, seemed to have had his fair share of teachings from Noel during normal days, and

he seemed unfazed by these horrible words. He continued to look at Noel in curiosity.

There was nothing different with the Array Eye Door. There were still runes and seals that he did not

understand on the door. Was Noel investigating the formation on the Array Eye Door?
