Chapter 4: Martial Soul Awakening!_1

Following that, Tang San and the others followed Suyun Tao into a very lavishly decorated house...

"Wow, all these things look so expensive."

"It's no wonder it's the Martial Soul Hall, I've never seen anything so exquisite."

Xu Sheng also looked around; although these items were exquisite, they were covered with a layer of gray dust, suggesting they had not been used for a long time.

Curious, Tang San looked at Xu Sheng and asked, "Brother Sheng, you don't seem to be nervous at all?"

Although he had experienced two lifetimes as a human, this was his first encounter with a Martial Soul Awakening, and despite not showing it on his face, he was somewhat excited...

But Xu Sheng was different, even though by age he was just a child, his mentality was even more mature than his own!

Shrugging, Xu Sheng said indifferently, "What's there to be nervous about? What's meant to come will come. If there's no Soul Power, there's still you, right?"

Tang San rolled his eyes at this answer, unsure of what to say, "Uh..."

At this moment, Suyun Tao had already walked up to a platform, clapped his hands gently, and said softly, "All right, children, come and stand in front of me in a line, prepare for the Martial Soul Awakening!"

Upon hearing this, everyone orderly stood in a row in front of Suyun Tao, straightening their spines...

Only then did Suyun Tao take out six black pebbles from his sleeve, and gently tossed them into the sky...

Once thrown, the six pebbles emitted a pale yellow glow and started rotating quickly in a circular pattern...

Thinking it over, Suyun Tao again reminded them with concern, "Children, no matter what you see later, don't be scared! The child on the far left, you go first."

The boy standing on the farthest left, upon hearing he was first, briskly walked forward and excitedly said, "Yes!"

Suyun Tao shouted sharply, "Lone Wolf! Attach!"

A white and a yellow Soul Ring rose up from beneath his feet, and soon after, a wolf with a massive body appeared behind Suyun Tao. Its dense fur concealed its lower body, its eyes wide open showing blood-red fangs, emitting a bloodthirsty aura, looking down on the child before it from a high position...

The boy in the front staggered backwards in fright, "Ahh! What... what is this?"

"Is... is this a Martial Soul? It's so powerful!"

"My god, am I about to possess a powerful Martial Soul like this?"

Tang San looked at one person and one soul, and instantly understood the relationship between the two, thinking to himself, "So this is the so-called Martial Soul? It seems like Suyun Tao must be able to obtain some of the Martial Soul's powers!"

Xu Sheng, with arms folded, shook his head and said, "This Lone Wolf is just a low-level Beast Soul among the many Beast Souls, right? And with Xiao Taozi's two levels of Soul Power, he'll be a Grand Soul Master at best even if he breaks through to the sky."

Suyun Tao looked at the boy closest to him, who was scared pale, and comforted him, "Child, don't be afraid, this is my Martial Soul, the Lone Wolf; it will not harm you."

The former nodded, and re-entered the circle of rapidly spinning pebbles...

He slowly closed his eyes, and then a sickle slowly emerged in his hand...

Suyun Tao sighed, "A sickle? It could be barely considered to have some offensive power, I guess. Now, let's test if you have any Soul Power."

He handed over a Crystal Ball, instructing, "Now place your right hand on this Crystal Ball..."

Following the instruction, the boy slowly placed his right hand on the Crystal Ball; however, the ball did not light up at all...

Suyun Tao shook his head, "No Soul Power, I'm very sorry, you cannot become a Soul Master… Please step back."

The boy looked at his own palm, a bit stunned, his eyes gradually reddening with sadness as he left...

...

Suyun Tao said, "Next, Xu Li!"

A delicate girl stepped forward, then closed her eyes, and a hoe gradually appeared... then she extended her right hand and placed it on the Crystal Ball... still, no light appeared...

"I'm very sorry, you cannot become a Soul Master."

...

Suyun Tao "Next, Li Guang..."

"Martial Soul Sickle, no Soul Power"

...

"Next, Zhang Ga..."

"Martial Soul Brick? Interesting... but no Soul Power..."

...

Finally, Suyun Tao was almost out of energy "Next, Tang San, please step forward for your Martial Soul Awakening!"

Tang San nodded at Xu Sheng and walked between the six stones, then closed his eyes to begin sensing...

The next moment, a vibrant Blue Silver Grass appeared in his hand...

Only then did Tang San open his eyes, and upon seeing the small patch of grass in his right hand, he very much wanted to curse...

He mumbled in frustration, "Is it really Blue Silver Grass? I've actually been cursed by Brother Sheng!"

He never thought that what was only a joke would now become reality; it was known by everyone as the standard useless Martial Soul!

A sense of loss inevitably arose in Tang San's heart...

"No!" The next moment, he felt something was amiss; it felt like something was about to come out of his left hand. He covertly touched it to confirm its shape and discovered it was a hammer!

Bewildered and on high alert, he discreetly withdrew the hammer back into his palm...

Xu Sheng, who noticed this detail, raised his eyebrows and murmured, "No change from the original story; looks like it's Blue Silver Grass and the Hao Tian Hammer!"

He had thought his presence would bring some changes to Tang San, but it seemed he was thinking too much...

Already mentally prepared, Suyun Tao couldn't be bothered to waste his expression and waved his hand, directly saying "Blue Silver Grass, the standard useless Martial Soul, next!"

Tang San spoke up to stop him, "Wait a minute! Master Suyun Tao, you haven't tested my Soul Power yet?"

Suyun Tao shook his head, "Your Martial Soul is Blue Silver Grass; in all my years I've never heard of it having Soul Power. Next!"

Tang San bit his lip, insisting again, "Master Suyun Tao, just let me try. It won't take long!"

Suyun Tao hesitated a bit, "Well..."

Behind him, Xu Sheng coughed a few times, "Cough cough, Master Suyun Tao, let Xiaosan test first, we're the only two people left anyway!"

Hearing this, Tang San cast a grateful look towards Xu Sheng...

True to form, Brother Sheng is reliable in a pinch!

Even if there was only a sliver of hope, he wanted to try and see if he really had any Soul Power!

Suyun Tao, looking at Tang San's resolute expression, handed over the Crystal Ball, "Very well then..."

Tang San took the Crystal Ball and gently placed his right hand on it...

The next moment, a dazzling light burst forth from the Crystal Ball, blinding everyone present...

The first to recover from the blinding light, Suyun Tao, wore a face of shock and said, "It's actually In... Innate full Soul Power!! Are you kidding me?"

Tang San's puzzled gaze turned towards Suyun Tao...

Noticing this, Suyun Tao calmly explained, "The so-called Innate full Soul Power is the highest level of Soul Power that one can possess at the time of a Martial Soul Awakening!"

He expressed his regret, "But what a pity, your Martial Soul is the useless Blue Silver Grass!"

Finding someone with Innate full Soul Power was already rare, and yet it was for a useless Martial Soul... this was indeed frustrating...
