To be honest, Oscar's charming face, with its blend of cuteness and handsomeness, coupled with the perpetual smile on his lips, made it incredibly easy for him to connect with others.
Naturally, Tang San and the others didn't refuse his suggestion. It wasn't a troublesome request at all.
The introductions were straightforward: each person would share their Soul Skills and a bit about their personal experiences.
Tang San began his introduction: "My two Soul Skills are Entwine and Parasite. My teacher specifically chose these to complement my Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul and my decent close-combat abilities.
While this is a standard Soul Skill configuration for control-type Soul Masters with plant-based Martial Souls, it allows me to simultaneously leverage the Blue Silver Grass's low Soul Power consumption and my relatively strong close-combat skills.
Also, I was raised solely by my father since I was a child. However, he left after I enrolled in Soul Master Academy, and I haven't heard from him since. I don't know where he is or how he's doing."
As Tang San spoke, his mood visibly darkened. Noticing this, Xiao Wu sat down beside him.
Xiao Wu didn't say anything, but gently wrapped her arms around Tang San's. Her gesture brought a smile back to his lips.
The scene, practically radiating pink bubbles, made Oscar and Zhu Zhuqing's lips twitch in unison.
*Get a room, you two!* Oscar thought to himself.
Tang San continued recounting his daily life: "During my first year at the academy, I was a work-study student with tuition waived. By chance, I became the disciple of a highly knowledgeable master.
"My master took my training very seriously. The knowledge he imparted about Soul Master cultivation and soul beasts far surpassed the details taught at the junior Soul Master academy. This thorough and patient instruction benefited me immensely.
"Also, since my father was the village blacksmith, I learned considerable blacksmithing skills. The money I've saved up was earned by working at the blacksmith shop during my free time at the academy.
"In addition, I can craft intricate mechanical devices and hidden weapons."
"Hidden weapons are similar to the Soul Tool you used in yesterday's assessment, Oscar, but there are significant differences. I'll demonstrate them if the opportunity arises.
Alright, that covers most of my questions."
After Tang San finished, it was Xiao Wu's turn. "As for me, I don't really have any family left.
Ever since my Martial Soul awakened, I've been studying at a junior Soul Master academy with Third Brother. Since we had the highest Soul Power levels in the entire academy, we naturally grew closer.
I'm Tang San's adopted younger sister. If you bully me, I'll tell on you!" Xiao Wu winked mischievously.
Oscar, who was being stared at by Xiao Wu, shook his head vigorously. "Just kidding! Bully you? How would I dare?"
Tang San, still with Xiao Wu clinging to his arm, watched her antics and Oscar's reaction, shifting awkwardly and glaring at her.
Xiao Wu finally straightened up and continued seriously, "My two Soul Skills are the Waist Bow, which enhances my waist strength, and the control-type skill Charm."
"However, my Martial Soul, the Soft Bone Rabbit, granted me a natural talent: the Soft Technique.
I used this skill during yesterday's assessment, but that lecherous Fatty somehow managed to block it."
Xiao Wu's introduction ended there, and Zhu Zhuqing stepped forward.
The girl immediately introduced her Soul Skills: "My two Soul Skills are the acceleration-enhanced Nether Strike and the attack power-boosting Nether Hundred Claws."
After a slight hesitation, Zhu Zhuqing continued, "I'm from the Star Luo Empire. My family situation is rather complicated, so I won't go into detail. It won't affect anything anyway. I'm Dai Mubai's fiancée. I came here because I heard rumors back home about Dai Mubai's... *colorful* lifestyle."
This bombshell revelation, delivered in Zhu Zhuqing's calm tone, left Tang San and Xiao Wu utterly stunned.
Oscar was equally shocked that Zhu Zhuqing would reveal such a secret so bluntly at this moment.
Xiao Wu and Tang San now understood why Zhu Zhuqing had always been so cold, even hostile, toward Dai Mubai.
"Hmph, just as I thought, he's no better than that Ma Hongjun," Xiao Wu scoffed, dragging Fatty into her criticism of Dai Mubai.
"Hey, hey, hey, Xiao Wu-meimei," Oscar quickly interjected, "I agree Dai Mubai isn't exactly a saint, but Fatty... well, there's a reason for his behavior."
Seeing Xiao Wu's eyebrow twitch as she stood up, ready to argue, Oscar hurried to placate her. "Hear me out, Xiao Wu-meimei! The reason Fatty seems... you know... is largely due to his Martial Soul."
"During yesterday's introductions, you heard that Fatty's Martial Soul is a mutated Fire Phoenix, right? But the mutation wasn't entirely successful. So whenever Fatty meditates, his Martial Soul accumulates a kind of 'evil fire' within him. When this fire builds up to a certain point, it erupts."
The effects of this malevolent fire's eruptions grew stronger as Fatty's Soul Power level increased.
To prevent the fire from erupting and endangering Fatty's life, he had to periodically release it through that method.
Over time, Fatty's desires in that area intensified, and he sometimes lacked restraint in his words.
Yesterday, he was just making a thoughtless joke, without any malice. Please be generous and don't hold it against him."
As Oscar explained, Tang San's expression became peculiar, as if he wanted to say something but couldn't find the right words.
Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing reacted slowly at first, then their delicate faces flushed crimson.
"How could a Martial Soul have such a strange influence?" Xiao Wu murmured, her cheeks burning.
"Ahem, just remember that Fatty's personality is largely shaped by his Martial Soul," Oscar said, clearing his throat twice to quickly end the awkward conversation.
"Alright, let me introduce myself now.
My Martial Soul is the Hamburger, just like Oscar's Sausage Martial Soul. Both of us were born with full innate Soul Power thanks to these Martial Souls.
My three Soul Skills are:
First Soul Skill: Charcoal-Grilled Cheeseburger. For half an hour, it enhances the activity of Soul Power, allowing it to slowly recover during combat and slowing down fatigue.
This skill also has a crucial secondary effect: once per day, it accelerates the circulation of Soul Power during meditation.
So, remember to ask me for a hamburger every evening when we eat."
As he spoke, Oscar materialized three Charcoal-Grilled Cheeseburgers and handed them to Tang San, Xiao Wu, and Zhu Zhuqing.
"Second Soul Skill: Spicy Sichuan Pepper Beef Burger. It ignores level restrictions and increases total Soul Power by 15%.
Third Soul Skill: Crispy Shrimp Fried Chicken Burger. It creates three freely controllable, transparent psychic shields within a one-meter radius, with my body as the center.
Xiao Wu, the reason Fatty was able to nullify your Soft Technique yesterday was because he released a psychic shield right against his skin, preventing your Scorpion Braid from gaining purchase."
"Alright, now that I've finished introducing our Soul Skills, let's talk about our backgrounds.
Oscar and I are from the Food Village east of Soto City. Dean Flender awakened our Martial Souls, and we've been studying at Shrek Academy ever since.
My parents used to run a snack stall in Soto City, but they've since upgraded to a small shop, and business is still good.
So, even though Oscar and I didn't have much extra money growing up, we never lacked for food or clothing. Especially when it came to food, we ate meat every day.
Oh, Tang San, here's a bonus piece of information: every student and teacher at Shrek Academy is actually quite skilled in blacksmithing.
You'll find out why during tomorrow's class, so I won't spoil it for you now.
As for the other students' Soul Skills, you'll have to negotiate that yourselves. I don't want to deprive you of conversation starters."
As Oscar said this, the smile on his lips gave Tang San and the others the distinct impression that he was eagerly anticipating some good entertainment.
"This spectator mentality is really going too far," Tang San groaned inwardly. "Giving us the result but withholding the process is pure torture."
The conversation seemed to have ended, but Oscar turned back before leaving and asked, "Xiao San, are you about to break through?"
Puzzled, Tang San nodded. "Yes, according to my calculations, it shouldn't take more than two weeks."
"In that case, let's refrain from eating soul beast meat for now. Every time we consume it, Oscar can sense a faint soul beast aura mixing with our own. While we don't know if this aura will attract the attention of soul beasts in the forest, we're heading to the Star Dou Great Forest, where countless powerful soul beasts roam. If our scent attracts a creature even our teachers can't handle, it would be disastrous. Anything is possible in the Star Dou Great Forest, so caution is paramount."
As he finished speaking, Oscar carefully observed Xiao Wu's expression. As expected, her face paled, clearly reminding her of her own predicament.
