Chapter 22 : Before Ceremony

Right now, Lin Fan and Xiao Bing were in front of a Village Hall with the other children. They were all up to six years old, which were definitely waiting to undergo their Martial Spirit Awakening.

As usual, Martial Spirit Awakening was carried out by Spirit Hall, as this was an agreement between Heaven Dou Empire and Spirit Hall.

This agreement originated from the conflict between the Heaven Dou Empire and the Star Luo Empire, in which the Heaven Dou Empire was still lacking in military strength against the Star Luo Empire.

Thus, the Heaven Dou Empire made an agreement with the Spirit Hall, to help strengthen their military power in exchange for the Spirit Hall having to undergo Martial Spirit Awakening in the Heaven Dou Empire.

Well, Spirit Hall's strategy is cunning, they can easily recruit talented children quickly, it's like who goes first and gets it first.

And in the long run, Spirit Hall was able to gather a large army of Spirit Masters, almost all of them possessing quite strong strength.

Moreover, Spirit Hall did not get any significant resistance from Clans in the Heaven Dou Empire, allowing Spirit Hall's wealth to grow rapidly.

In fact, many smaller Clans have joined Spirit Hall, which makes the power of this organization capable of surpassing the Heaven Dou Empire even though it is still in the shadows.

Unfortunately this organization is led by Mad Woman who is filled with hatred and vengeance, who gives orders to take extreme actions that are disappointing, such as the annihilation of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.

Well, Lin Fan himself had no hatred for Spirit Hall, nor did he know whether those actions were right or not.

Personally, annihilating a clan by massacring all its members was an extremely heinous thing. However, this is a cultivation world, where the strong is the one who reigns, moreover it is better to cut the grass by the roots.

Still Lin Fan did not like the massacre, as the main reason Bibi Dong massacred the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan was simply because of Yu Xiaogang!

"Sigh... That's how it is when a Mad Woman with Super Girl power is so obsessed with a Man, I don't know which is the main problem between Bibi Dong and Yu Xiaogang," thought Lin Fan.

...

After a while of Lin Fan and the others waiting, finally the representative from Spirit Hall had arrived.

This Spirit Hall representative was a middle-aged man wearing the Spirit Hall's signature uniform, with the emblem of two crossed swords.

This middle-aged man is bald, but his body is quite large with a height of up to 180 cm. And even though he didn't look handsome, the aura he displayed was that of an authoritative person.

Seeing this middle-aged man, Lin Fan immediately used the Library of Heaven's Path to find out his information.

SHUAA

"Hmm? This uncle.. He has an interesting Martial Spirit," said Lin Fan who read the Middle-aged Man's information.

This middle-aged man possessed a unique and truly unexpected Martial Spirit, which was a glass cup.

The Glass Cup was a Tool-Type Martial Spirit whose Skill effect was the same as that of a Food-Type.

Yes, by putting water into the Glass Cup, the water will have an effect that depends on the Spirit Ring used.

Moreover, this Middle-aged Man has a cultivation reaching Rank 30+, with 3 Spirit Rings which are not very good combinations.

He had one White Spirit Ring and two Yellow Spirit Rings, with all Skills only giving the effect of increasing one Stat.

Even though this Martial Spirit sounded trashy and the skill effect wasn't that great, it made Lin Fan realize that Douluo Dalu had an infinite variety of Skills.

"Everyone has almost different Martial Spirits, and every Spirit Ring can come from different Spirit Beasts… This makes Douluo Dalu have a lot of secrets about the variety of Skills given…" thought Lin Fan who was enthusiastic.

This is what makes Lin Fan so fond of Douluo Dalu, because of the many Skill Variations that can be explored, let alone the evolution that makes his imagination wander everywhere.

After Lin Fan finished reading the information belonging to the Middle-aged Man, it was time for all the children to undergo Martial Spirit Awakening.

The middle-aged man then walked over and was in front of the door of the Village Hall, then he shouted, "Everyone! I am the representative of the Spirit Hall who will undergo the Martial Spirit Awakening Ceremony this year. For the children who are about to awaken now, please enter the in the Village Hall!".

After that, the middle-aged man entered the Village Hall, which was then followed by several children who were going to undergo this Ceremony.

There were not many children who underwent the Martial Spirit Awakening Ceremony this year, only seven in number.

All the children who participated in this Ceremony looked enthusiastic, they hoped that they would awaken strong Martial Spirits and become Spirit Masters.

Of course, what determines they have a chance to become a Spirit Master is whether they have Innate Spirit Essence or not.

If they didn't have Innate Spirit Essence, then they definitely wouldn't be able to become Spirit Masters.

And seeing their enthusiasm, Lin Fan just shook his head with a wry smile, because with the Library of Heaven's Path, he could tell that none of these children had any chance of becoming Spirit Masters, except for himself.

But Lin Fan also didn't want to be presumptuous, because who knows when a Martial Spirit awakens, there will be a mutation that gives them a big chance.

But in truth, anyone born on the Douluo Planet can become a Spirit Master, even if they don't have talent or don't have Innate Spirit Essence.

And what was needed was to be able to absorb the Origin Essence in the atmosphere, and cultivate it into Spirit Essence.

However, in order to absorb the Origin Essence in the atmosphere, it takes Spirit Essence to be able to draw it, naturally this is the most common and traditional method.

But if you have advanced cultivation techniques like the Heaven's Path Divine Art, even if you don't have Innate Spirit Essence, let alone become a Spirit Master, it is possible to become a God.
