Dragon King of Apocalypse (Douluo Dalu 3)-Completed

Glory bound City was a small town sitting on the border between the ocean and the eastern coast of the Sun Moon Federation. The town was rapidly exhibiting waves of cheer as today was the day of the Awaken Ceremony.

The Awakening Ceremony is used to awaken a person "Martial Soul", which everyone in Douluo Continent possesses.

The martial soul was a part of the body that could be awakened when they became six years old, regardless of whether they were animals or plants.

Even though everyone possesses a martial spirit, not everyone possesses soul power. Soul Power is used to nurture and grow a person, martial soul.

This made it, so a person's soul power represents their future and power potential in the life of the Douluo Continent.

This is why everyone from the noble, rich, corrupted to even the commoners forces their kids to participate in the Awaken ceremony in hopes of them becoming a spirit master.

The plaza was very crowded and noisy with many youths being excited to finally gain their Martial souls. In hopes of finally becoming a spirit master.

Then maybe one day becoming powerful and holding a majestic status on the continent.

Yet one youth stood out, looking bare six years old with short back hair, long eyelashes and big eyes that one would mistake for a girl.

Standing still with a stoic and bored expression as his father was talking to him.

"Wulin, aren't you happy for today. You can finally get your Martial Soul."Said Tang Ziran, as he crouches down to his son and tussles with his hair.

"I guess."Muttered Tang Wulin as he turns his head to face his dad after he was done observing the children going in and out of the academy.

Tang Ziran could only shake his head after still seeing his son face being stoic even when today was a joyous event.

He wishes his son would act more like kids around them but he still didn't mind in the end.

Tang Ziran kept on talking to Tang Wulin, not minding his son's lack of response knowing his son, is not the talkative type.

The duo saw an overwhelming number of parents and children coming out of the academy, most of them displaying dejected and disappointing looks.

"Tang Wulin!" A teacher walked out from the Red Mountain Academy with a list in hand, calling out the next name. Tang Wulin nodded his head and the teacher motion for them to follow.

Tang Ziran looks around the inside of the future place where his son would be studying if he turns out to be a Spirit Master.

Tang Ziran couldn't help but be calm by this simple and peaceful environment, something he knew that his son would appreciate.

"Would the parent please wait here for a moment. " Said the teacher as he turned to face Tang Ziran who turned around from observing the school building.

He nodded his head and motions his son to follow the teacher.

Tang Ziran look at his son, as he followed the teacher in the Academy. He couldn't help but remember his own Awakening Day and could only put faith in his son's fortune.

Tang Wulin was instructed by the teacher to go farther in. He will see the spirit master who will help him awaken his martial soul, while also testing his spirit rank.

"Hello there, just go stand in the middle... Hm, such pretty eyes you have, how perfect would it be if your martial soul was spirit eyes. " Muttered the Spirit Master with a smiled, as he saw Tang Wulin walking towards him.

Yet he became put off when he didn't see a change in the boy expression and just a look of boredom.

Which was a first for him considering today was the day when most kids would have trouble staying still or keeping quiet.

"I have a question," Said Tang Wulin as he walks towards the middle for the Awakening Ceremony. The Spirit Master blink but still motion for the body to ask his question.

"Are there any Dragon Spirit Beast." Questions the boy with his big black eyes shining brightly, yet the spirit master couldn't help but get chill on his back from the simple question.

"Uuh... Yes! While there are other spirit animals and the dragon race are still few in the world. They still exist at the apex of the world in terms of spirit beast," Said the Spirit Master, as he started the awakening.

Faint energy undulated as it was emitted from Tang Wulin's body as golden lights started to appear on his forehead and limbs.

At the same time, light blue marking started to appear on his body forming from his chest to his other limbs and entangling with the golden veins.

A Dark aura started to appear around the boy, creating cracks around the middle parts of the stage.

The room started to become colder and the darker but as quickly as it appeared, it disappeared. As Tang Wulin martial spirit started to manifest itself in his hand.

"Your Martial Soul is… Eh? Blue Silver Grass," sighed the Spirit Master, feeling like it was a big loss even after seeing those strange golden marks appeared on the boy and that ominous aura.

Tang Wulin just nodded, knowing from the stories his father told him that people consider Blue Silver Grass a trash spirit soul.

The Spirit Master, not wanting to hurt Tang Wulin's feelings after seeing how obedient he has been. Express words of encouragement and told him to put his hand on the crystal ball.

Tang Wulin putting his hand on it caused it to start to shine brighter and brighter as the second pass by. Causing Tang Wulin and the Spirit Master to cover their eyes.

The Spirit Master moved his head from the youth with his hand still on the crystal ball to the numbers displayed on the screen.

"Innate…Innate Full Soul Power...!" yelled the Spirit Master, as he looks at Tang Wulin as if he was a freak.

'Heavens, what is up with this kid, golden veins, then blue markings appearing on his body, an ominous aura, a trash Blue Silver Grass and now Innate Full Soul Power' Thought the Spiri Master in shock.

Tang Wulin nods his head to this and pivots his foot as he begins to walk away from the Spirit Master, not caring in the slightest about the reason behind the spirit master shock or confusion.

The Spirit Master recovered too late and tried to call out to Tang Wulin but he was already gone.

With the next kid coming in for their martial spirit, he could only give up on chasing after the boy. He hopes he will see him when he goes to get his first spirit ring.

Tang Wulin walks through the Academy building for a while, before he stops at a corner with no one around and turning inside.

He rested his elbow on the wall as it covers his eyes.

It started with his shoulder and head shaking, then snickering and transforming into chuckling. Then finally full out hysterical cries as a wide huge smiled appeared on Tang Wulin's face.

"Dragons! Dragons!!" Cheered Tang Wulin, as he looks up to the heavens with a feral smile and a teardrop falling down his face.

'They still exist'

Was the thought the previous Dragon King, Acnologia as he marches home with a rarely seen smile on his face.
