Early the next morning, Ning Qiu got up early and came to the small square of the Holy Soul Village with Xiao Wu.

It was just dawn and the sun had not yet risen to the mountain. In front of the small square of the village, an old man stood there. The old man looked at the stone pillar on the pool in front of him. There was a handprint on the stone pillar. It was the handprint left by the soul saint of the village.

"Good morning, Grandpa Jack." Ning Qiu greeted Old Jack.

"Good morning, village chief." Old Jack turned around and greeted Ning Qiu.

"Good morning, Grandpa Jack." Xiao Wu also greeted Old Jack.

"Well, Xiao Wu, good morning." Old Jack showed a kind smile.

"Grandpa Jack, although I am the village chief now, you should call me Ning Qiu. I can hear this title." Ning Qiu replied.

"No. You are the village chief now. I have to call you the village chief. How can you call you by your name?" Old Jack said pedanticly.

"Okay." Ning Qiu compromised helplessly. Psychological characters are unique to older people. Ning Qiu could not change this.

"Ning Qiu, now you have become the village chief, and there is one thing I need to tell you." Old Jack suddenly changed his expression and became extremely serious.

"You said." Ning Qiu said.

"Ning Qiu, this handprint in the village was actually left by my grandfather." Old Jack said.

"Your grandpa?" Ning Qiu was stunned.

"Well. My grandfather is a level 71 soul saint. His martial soul is the same as me, a sickle. Unfortunately, my great-grandfather does not have a good martial soul inheritance to him. When he awakened his martial soul, although he had soul power, he did not have a good cultivation qualification. My grandfather worked very hard and only slept for six hours a day. The rest of the time, except for eating, drinking, defecating, urinating, and sleeping, was all spent on cultivation. It can be said that he worked several times harder than ordinary people. But what can this be done?" Old Jack's eyes showed a sad look.

Ning Qiu didn't interrupt and listened quietly to Old Jack's words.

"No matter how hard my grandfather tried, he would only stop at the realm of the Soul Saint. A good martial soul is really important for a soul master."

"Once when I was out, my grandfather met an evil soul master. Although the evil soul master was killed in the end, my grandmother died because of him. Disheartened, my grandfather returned to the village. He hated himself very much, hated him for not being strong enough that he could not even protect his beloved. He was upset and interrupted the stone pillar, which left this handprint on the stone pillar!"

"In other words, this handprint is not the glory of our village at all, but the helplessness of our village. Now, your magical land allows every villager to have the hope of becoming a soul master. In my opinion, this is not necessarily a good thing!"

Old Jack stared at Mu Chen and told the past about the village handprints.

"Grandpa Jack, what are you worried about?" Ning Qiu asked.

"Hope means despair. The greatest sorrow is death. The most painful thing for people is helplessness. Nowadays, the villagers in the village can become soul masters and will embark on a different path from farmers in the future. If you cannot become a top-notch strongman like Soul Douluo and Titled Douluo, I don't think this is a good thing for the Holy Soul Village. The world of Soul Masters has been very uneasy recently!" Old Jack said earnestly.

To put it bluntly, Old Jack is worried about the future safety of the villagers of Holy Soul Village. Once he becomes a soul master, he will be involved in the vortex of struggle in the future. There may be bloodshed and sacrifice at any time.

The soul master world is full of forces, and in the future, there will be some villagers in the Holy Soul Village. They will inevitably have to live on the edge of the knife. Especially for people in the same village, there may be a scene where they have to fight each other. Although becoming a farmer is very hard, becoming a soul master may not necessarily bring happiness.

"Grandpa Jack, what's wrong with you? Isn't it your dream that someone in the village can become a soul master?" Ning Qiu asked in confusion.

"I..." Old Jack paused, and for a moment, he couldn't figure out what was wrong with him. The village suddenly could be a soul master, so why was he afraid!

"Grandpa Jack, I can understand what you mean. Don't worry, I, Ning Qiu, either, don't do it. Since I want to do it, I must do the best." Ning Qiu said solemnly.

As a time traveler, Ning Qiu has a very good understanding of the situation in the mainland. The soul master world is full of forces. In order to avoid some tragedies and deal with the upcoming continental turmoil, Ning Qiu needs to do something to the Holy Soul Village.

"Yes." Old Jack patted Ning Qiu's shoulder.

"Grandpa Jack, are you busy?" Ning Qiu asked again.

"Not busy. I used to be the village chief and there was nothing to do in a day. Now even the land under my name is contracted by the village, so I have nothing to do with it." Old Jack said with a smile.

"Grandpa Jack, can you accompany me to the Starfly Forest?" Ning Qiu then invited.

"Star Dou Big Forest?" Old Jack was stunned. He had obviously heard of the Star Dou Big Forest.

"Yes." Ning Qiu nodded heavily.

"Child, what are you going to the Stardou Forest for?" Old Jack asked.

"This is a secret." Ning Qiu thought that when he had not grown up, it would be better not to let others know more secrets about the village. Even if it was the trial task about the village upgrade, it would not let others know for the time being.

"Child, you may not know. The Star Dou Forest is a paradise for soul beasts. Not to mention the thousand-year-old soul beasts, even the ten thousand-year-old soul beasts, or even the ten thousand-year-old soul beasts. Even the ten thousand-year-old soul beasts, even the ten thousand-year-old soul beasts, even the ten thousand-year-old soul beasts, even the titled Douluo-level strongman, dare not challenge them alone." Old Jack persuaded earnestly.

"I know, but I have no choice." Ning Qiu said helplessly.

The village upgraded trial mission requires Ning Qiu to go to the Stardou Forest and at least three soul beasts become registered villagers in the host village.

"Do you have to go?" Old Jack asked.

"Well. Grandpa Jack, don't worry, you just need to take us to the forest. Just leave the next thing to me." Ning Qiu replied.

Due to age, even though Ning Qiu and Xiao Wu are now a soul master, it is still very unsafe to go to the Star Dou Forest. It is not that they are afraid of the low-level soul beasts touched on the road, but that they are afraid that someone will bully them as children. For safety reasons, Ning Qiu thought that if Old Jack followed him, there would be much less trouble.

"This..." Old Jack still hesitated.

"Jack, don't worry. I am 100% sure about this trip. It is always a good thing to have an adult follow us to travel. As long as I arrive at the Star Dou Forest safely, I will be 100% sure to be able to safely come out of the forest." Ning Qiu said solemnly.

"Are you sure?" Old Jack asked.

"I'm sure. If you don't take me there, then I can only ask my sixth uncle to accompany me. If Ning sixth uncle refuses, I will go with Xiao Wu and the other two." Ning Qiu replied in a very firm tone.

"Okay." Old Jack looked at Ning Qiu so persistently and could only nod.
