Douluo : Diary System in Douluo Continent

On the other side, the heroines who owned the diary couldn't sleep, eagerly waiting to see what reward Su Ming had received. Even though it was already midnight, they kept staring at their diaries, hoping for an update from him.

Just then, the diaries opened, but instead of an update, some new rules appeared:

[Rule 1: Heroines with diaries will randomly gain between 0.01% and 1% of their soul power every seven days, provided they check the diary daily.]

[Rule 2: The heroine mentioned most often by name each day will receive a random reward.]

[Rule 3: Warning! Do not expose the existence of the diary, even to Su Ming. Violators will be eliminated!]

[Rule 4: The heroines must coexist peacefully. Any attempt to seize rewards or harm the diary's owner will result in elimination!]

The heroines felt a bit of excitement when they saw these new rules. They hadn't expected that simply reading the diary would bring rewards. Even a guaranteed soul power increase! Though many of them remained skeptical.

After all, this kind of extraordinary thing still needed to be verified.

But before they could think further, they suddenly felt a slight increase in their soul power!

In a certain village, Xiao Wu had just earned the village's only work-study slot, thanks to her newly awakened soul power and her cute, petite appearance.

The village elder, seeing how adorable Xiao Wu was and knowing that no one in their village had awakened soul power in recent years, generously gave her the work-study spot.

Staying at the village elder's home, Xiao Wu immediately noticed a 1% increase in her soul power!

This same situation occurred in various other places—the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan, the Zhu family of the Star Luo Empire, and the cave in Holy Soul Village.

The personal changes confirmed it: the diary was real!

If the soul power increase was genuine, then the reward for being mentioned the most each day must be real too!

At that moment, the diary showed a new notification.

[Mentions of names in today's diary: Xiao Wu – 6 times, Ah Yin – 5 times. Issuing reward.]

[Xiao Wu has received the skill: Breath Concealment.]

In front of Xiao Wu, the diary displayed the description of her new skill.

[Breath Concealment: Perfectly hides the aura of a soul beast. No one will notice.]

Xiao Wu could clearly feel it too—her previously faintly detectable 100,000-year soul beast aura had completely vanished. Now, she no longer needed to worry about anyone discovering her soul beast identity!

Meanwhile, the other heroines who saw Xiao Wu's reward were deep in thought. To them, this skill seemed useless. It only hid one's aura—what was the point of that?

Since they couldn't see the skill description, they had to guess its purpose based on the name.

At the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan…

Ning Rongrong stared at her diary, specially marked with her name, her small eyes sparkling with curiosity. Since she hadn't awakened her martial soul yet, she couldn't tell if her soul power had increased. She wondered if the reward was real or not, but would know after a while.

If it was real, would the increase in soul power count as innate soul power? If she kept gaining more, could she awaken with full innate soul power later? No one in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan had ever awakened with full innate soul power before! (In the original story, Ning Rongrong's innate soul power was at level nine.)

Far away in the Zhu family of the Star Luo Empire, Zhu Zhuqing had the same thought. She too had not yet awakened her martial soul.

Meanwhile, Su Ming, having received the Sharingan reward, couldn't resist jotting it down in his diary.

[Who would have thought that writing a diary would trigger a critical hit reward? And I got a One Tomoe Sharingan too, which can upgrade without side effects! If I keep developing it, I might eventually get a Susanoo to dominate everyone!]

[I also received 1,000 gold soul coins! That'll cover my living expenses. I remember that one gold soul coin can sustain an ordinary family for months, so with 1,000, I'm set for a comfortable life.]

The heroines all turned toward the diary. While they didn't know how powerful the Sharingan was, they could tell it was a type of eye technique from how excited Su Ming was.

As for the 1,000 gold soul coins, Ning Rongrong, the little rich girl, didn't care at all. She was, after all, the little princess of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan. A mere 1,000 gold soul coins meant nothing to her.

The next day…

Grandpa Jack woke Su Ming early in the morning. After all, Holy Soul Village was still some distance from Notting City, and they needed time to handle the admission procedures.

Soon, Tang San also appeared, puzzling Su Ming. Wasn't there only one work-study spot in the village?

Grandpa Jack smiled at the two of them and explained, "Originally, our village only had one work-study slot. But since both of you awakened your soul power and have such great talent, it would be a waste not to use it. So, I asked a Soul Master from Spirit Hall for a recommendation."

He handed the recommendation letter to Tang San and continued, "With this letter, Notting City should show some respect to the Soul Master from Spirit Hall and grant a work-study spot."

Tang San calmly accepted the letter and gave his thanks.

Su Ming, however, understood the situation. This letter was given by Su Yuntao, and as long as Notting Academy was willing to show some respect, they could both become work-study students. But there was a small chance of rejection.

If Su Ming could figure this out, surely Tang San, who had the soul of a 30-something-year-old, could too.

Su Ming sighed inwardly. Tang San probably wouldn't feel grateful at all. He might even think, Why should the work-study spot go to someone else when my innate soul power is higher?

And indeed, Tang San was thinking the same thing. Although he thanked Grandpa Jack outwardly, he felt somewhat displeased. Why didn't he get the work-study spot when his soul power was higher? Was it because Su Ming was closer to Grandpa Jack?

However, Tang San couldn't complain. After all, Grandpa Jack had at least secured a letter from a Spirit Hall Soul Master. Without it, Tang San wouldn't even be able to attend school and learn more about soul masters.

It was funny in a way. Tang Hao, Tang San's father, had originally treated him coldly, believing that his son had only awakened the Blue Silver Grass martial soul. But when Tang San revealed his Clear Sky Hammer, Tang Hao had been so overwhelmed that he embraced Tang San, and his attitude changed dramatically!
