Servant of the Douluo Sun
Chapter 9 Seeking a Teacher
......
Karna saw "himself" running around, traveling across high mountains and clear waters to find famous teachers and seek skills.
Is this a dream again?
At the entrance of a glorious monastery, Karna stopped and said to the two attendants guarding the door: "Hello, I want to learn martial arts from the great sage. Can you please inform me?"
"Who are you?"
"My father is Lord Bhishma's charioteer."
"Are you the son of a coachman? Hahaha!! What a fantasy! The Venerable only entertains Brahmins and Kshatriyas, you are not welcome here. Get out of here!" The two waiters looked at each other and laughed.
"I'm here to learn martial arts..."
"Stop blabbering and get out of here!!"
Karna said nothing more and turned away angrily.
......
In a small town by the Ganges River, a famous hero lived in seclusion here.
Karna knocked on the door of the hero's house with excitement.
"Who is it?"
"Sir, my name is Karna, and I want to learn from you!"
"...My martial arts can only be left to the Kshatriyas. Are you a Kshatriya?"
"No, I'm just a coachman's son, but..."
"Just go away, I won't teach you."
Karna had no choice but to leave disappointed.
......
At the martial arts arena in the capital, Karna came excitedly when he heard that the warrior Sakya, who had been hiding for more than 20 years, was going to teach and recruit disciples here.
There was an endless stream of people coming to be apprentices. Karna waited in a long line and finally met the warrior he admired, Sakya. He said: "Dear warrior Sakya, I want to learn martial arts from you."
"Which king are you the son of?" Sakya asked.
"My father is, Lord Vishnu's charioteer..."
"What! You said you are the son of a cart driver! When did a cart driver's son learn martial arts from me? My knowledge and martial arts can only be passed on to noble castes like Brahmins and Kshatriyas. The son of a cart driver, ha! Learn well. It’s just enough to serve people, it’s not worthy of outstanding skills.”
Karna looked at Sakya in shock, like a bolt from the blue hitting his head.He didn't expect that the warrior he admired would say this. What does his talent have to do with his origin? ?
......
Karna quietly watched the "him" in his memory running around for three years, trying to learn from various masters.The search for hope again and again, the disappointment and rejection again and again.It was as if the curse of fate had firmly imprisoned him in the caste named Sudo.
Today is the day to visit Lord Drona.Half a month ago, I found out that Lord Drona was teaching in this forest, so he came all the way.
Karna was in a slightly happy mood today. He heard that Lord Drona was not born as a Brahmin or a Kshatriya. He believed that with his talent, he would definitely be favored by Lord Drona!
Just as he was walking forward with a bow and arrow in hand, an arrow with flaming light suddenly flew towards him.Karna was organizing the language for the meeting and was a little distracted.By the time the arrow was discovered, it was already too late.
Suddenly, a golden light flashed, and Karna instantly recognized that it was his golden armor that had saved "his" life.The arrow broke and fell to the ground feebly.
Although he was caught off guard at the beginning, Karna quickly calmed down.He kept reminding himself in his heart: You must be polite and don't be unreasonable to others...
Drona saw from a distance that the arrows shot by his disciples hit people, and he hurriedly came over to investigate.Karna saw him and bowed respectfully.Although the etiquette was extremely respectful, the confident gesture on his face was even more eye-catching. It was extremely confident in his own talent.
"Wan'an, Master."
"who are you?"
"My name is Karna, and I have come here because of your reputation, Master. I want to learn archery from you. My father is Lord Vishnu's charioteer."
Drona was originally sizing up Karna, but when he heard the last sentence, his expression suddenly changed and he said, "The son of a mere chariot driver actually wants to practice archery!"
Karna's smile froze on his face, and his expression gradually became grim.
Drona continued: "Don't you know that only Kshatriyas are qualified to learn advanced martial arts?"
Karna felt very angry, and suppressed his anger and asked: "Son of a charioteer... I am indeed the son of a charioteer. But master, I don't seek to be like a Kshatriya, I just want to advance." With your own abilities, why can’t you learn archery?”
"Ability is a blessing if you have the qualifications; if you don't, it will only bring disaster to people."
Karna could not suppress the anger in his heart and asked loudly: "Then why do you want to learn knowledge and teach martial arts to your children? They are not Kshatriyas! Dear Drona!"
Drona was speechless. He looked at the disciples on the side, many of whom were waiting for his explanation.He couldn't help but feel annoyed in his heart, and said coldly: "No need to say more, I was born from heaven and earth, unique - if you are also a person sent by heaven, then prove it to me. Otherwise, leave."
"God-given? What do you mean, Master? Every child is a gift from God to his parents! No one has the right to measure a mother's love or a father's expectations. Caste and doctrine cannot be a yardstick in front of this kind of love. .
My father doesn't want me to learn martial arts. He wants me to stay away from bows and arrows. Why does this society make him so panicked?Why can't I be his pride and honor?Why do I always have to hide my talents?
Who made these rules, Master?Is it possible for me to choose my father's caste?Was it chosen by his ancestors?If not, then who started it, using prejudice to classify living people?
why! ? "
Karna was extremely disappointed with this so-called master, and he was even more disgusted with the rules of this society.His face regained a calm expression, and he said to Drona in front of him: "No, I don't agree with such a rule, I will break it. Farewell, I will come back when I become the best warrior in the world."
Then walk away.
Karna upheld the Kshatriya code and was unwilling to deceive others.But such a caste society has made him despair, so he shaved off his silver hair and pretended to be a monk to visit the axe-wielding Rama.
"Are you a Brahmin?"
"...I - am." The last word was spoken with great emphasis.
Rama, who held the axe, saw that he had extremely tall bones and handsome appearance. He couldn't help but feel the hunting spirit and accepted Karna.
Karna was overjoyed when he saw "himself". After bowing respectfully, he called out "Master!"
......
On the big bed in the hotel, Karna opened his eyes.This is Soto City, and tomorrow is his first battle in Soto City's Great Spirit Arena.
Half a year has passed unknowingly. During these six months, he has experienced seven more battles and has maintained a ten-game winning streak in bloody battles so far.The big boss of the organization thinks that he no longer needs to play the boy game, and no one in the nearby cities dares to challenge Karna.Therefore, they sent someone to bring him to Soto City, intending to let him participate in the soul fighting.
When Karna was at level [-], because of his good performance, the organization specially opened the captive soul beasts under its jurisdiction to him, allowing him to choose one among fifteen century-old soul beasts.Karna randomly found a three-clawed ape that was about to die, killed it and pretended to absorb its soul ring.
At this time, Karna's soul power has reached level 21, which has met the minimum requirements to enter the soul fighting arena, even though he is not yet seven years old.It has to be said that the gifted soul skill is very powerful.
Early the next morning, there was someone waiting for Karna at the door.After a simple breakfast, the two soul masters took him to the Soto Great Soul Fighting Arena.
When you walk into the Great Soul Fighting Arena, the first thing you see is a huge stone tablet with densely carved names on it.Karna knew that those were all people who died in the soul fighting.He clenched his fists tightly, hoping that he would not appear on this stone tablet!
The soul master on the left introduced him, "We have already reported your name for you. You just need to check the soul power level later. Here, this is your badge."
Karna took the badge and played with it in his hand.
The man continued: "The spirit fighting here is different from the underground spirit fighting field over there. Because there is a kingdom behind the scenes, we have to abide by the rules when we come here. You have to remember this!"
"The fighting spirit here is divided into three categories. One is game, which is to compete with each other and it is forbidden to kill people with cruel hands. The other is life and death fight, which is used to resolve irreconcilable disputes. The last one is gambling fight. By The big spirit fighting arena serves as the referee, and both sides of the bet will send an equal number of spirit masters to compete, and the final winner will get everything in the bet."
"There are also three forms of competition, one-on-one, two-on-two and group battle. Among them, the number of people in the group battle is negotiated and stipulated. According to the rules of the Great Soul Fighting Arena, it is generally within the limit of seven to ten people. Within. If necessary, we will arrange temporary teammates for you."
"The badge you are holding now is the lowest Iron Fighting Soul badge. Every time you win a battle, you can get a certain amount of points. When the points reach a certain level, you can upgrade your badge. As for how to win, that is your problem. "
Karna nodded silently without saying a word.
This time he came as a hired soul master.Many nobles and clans have conflicts due to interest disputes, and gambling in the ring is a rather traditional solution.The organization secretly takes orders from nobles and sends people to help them win fighting souls in order to make money.
"Your first opponent is..."
Sitting in the lounge, the man kept talking.However, Karna showed no interest in listening.The 700-year-old first spirit ring allows him to quickly see the other party's information.And there won't be any falsehood.
"The following are the level 26 fighting spirit master 'Red Rhinoceros' and the level 21 fighting spirit master 'Silver Haired Spear'."
Karna walked onto the stage and looked at his opponent. He was a bald man wearing fiery red leather armor. He was two meters tall and frightening.His body is naked with muscles, and there is a black rhinoceros tattooed on his right shoulder.
Game start.
"Little ghost head, did you go to the wrong place? Mom is still at home waiting for you to breastfeed! Haha!" The strong man looked at Karna's petite figure and laughed wildly.He didn't take his opponents seriously at all.
The surrounding audience also whispered, full of doubts.Some people even shouted loudly for Karna to get down quickly.
"Is this the brat you sent me?!"
In the VIP room, a man dressed in aristocratic clothing threw the crutch in his hand to the ground and shouted loudly.
"Be patient, Baron Sfintel, our boss thinks it's enough to send him on the field... If we fail to complete the task, we will double the deposit."
"It's almost there."
After hearing this, Baron Sfintel settled down and concentrated on eating the fruits handed to his mouth by the maid next to him.Obviously there is no hope of winning this game.
In the field, Karna ignored the sounds around him.His eyes were sharp, he flipped his right hand, summoned the Immortal Spear, and held it tightly in his hand.Two yellow century-old soul rings were revealed, and the "poor man's insight" was quietly turned on, scanning for the opponent's flaws.
"Red Flame Rhino" Qing Lei stepped forward and rushed towards Karna in a wild manner. Although he was not possessed by a martial spirit, it gave people the illusion of a huge red rhinoceros running.
Karna jumped back quickly, and at the same time, taking advantage of the opponent's inability to turn while running, he stabbed him with a carbine.The gun tip scraped across, leaving a two-finger-wide scar on Qing Lei's body.
"Fuck, what a sharp weapon!"
"What an amazing physique!"
The two thought at the same time.
Karna exercised his body all the time for half a year, and even used many methods from his previous life. He thought that his body was not bad.But the huge resistance that just came from the tip of the gun told him how amazing the defensive power of the opponent was.You know, this is still without the spirit of martial arts.
Qing Lei also felt uncomfortable. Although the injury was not serious, he had lost face as soon as the game started.Unforgivable!He stopped charging, turned around, pinched his wrist casually, and said: "Boy, not many people can see my martial spirit! Regret that you were born in this world!"
"Possessed by a martial spirit. Mutated martial spirit, red-armored rhinoceros!"
Karna saw "himself" running around, traveling across high mountains and clear waters to find famous teachers and seek skills.
Is this a dream again?
At the entrance of a glorious monastery, Karna stopped and said to the two attendants guarding the door: "Hello, I want to learn martial arts from the great sage. Can you please inform me?"

"My father is Lord Bhishma's charioteer."

"I'm here to learn martial arts..."
"Stop blabbering and get out of here!!"
Karna said nothing more and turned away angrily.

Karna knocked on the door of the hero's house with excitement.
