Third Awakening of a Body Martial Soul, Spirit Eyes Evolve into Eyes of Asura!

White World, on the battlefield outside Mingdu.

Corpses littered the ground, severed limbs lay everywhere, and the stench of blood hung so thick it seemed almost impossible to disperse.

The last Soul Master of the Shrek Inspection Corps, also a Sea God Pavilion Elder, had collapsed into a sitting position in a pool of blood.

His legs scrabbled against the ground as he backed away, and a wet patch had appeared on his trousers.

His shit-green inspector's uniform was now in tatters.

The face of this Titled Douluo, who had once made a resounding name for himself in the Soul Master World, was filled with nothing but boundless terror.

Huo Yuhao walked toward him, step by step, the Asura Demon Sword in his hand dragging across the bloodstained earth and carving a shocking red line.

His once brilliant golden Spirit Eyes had now turned completely blood-red.

It was as though two seas of blood churned and swirled in their sockets, giving off a suffocating killing aura.

"Y-your eyes..."

The Sea God Pavilion Elder stared fixedly into Huo Yuhao's eyes. Suddenly, as though he had thought of something, his whole body shuddered and he cried out.

"Impossible! A Body Martial Soul's Third Awakening?!"

"The Body Sect spent ten thousand years and only managed to uncover the secret of Second Awakening!"

"But your Spirit Eyes have clearly already undergone Second Awakening once. Why would they awaken again?"

Hearing the Sea God Pavilion Elder's words, Huo Yuhao's steps faltered slightly.

He slowly raised a hand and touched his blood-red, glowing eyes, a chilling smile curving his lips.

"My Spirit Eyes Martial Soul evolved because of Asura's killing intent. It would no longer be fitting to call it Spirit Eyes."

"From now on, its name will be..."

"Eyes of Asura!"

As his words fell, a flash of blood-red sword light swept past.

The Sea God Pavilion Elder's expression froze completely, and his head tumbled into the pool of blood.

His eyes were wide open, unable to rest in death.

"Divine Punishment Returns to Zero, why..."

Black World, Body Sect.

"Sect Master, what does a Body Martial Soul's Third Awakening mean?"

A bare-chested Body Sect disciple scratched his head and looked at Du Busi in bewilderment.

"Didn't that old man in the sky say Third Awakening was incredible?"

Du Busi did not answer the question.

He stared fixedly at Huo Yuhao's blood-red eyes in the sky, his chest heaving.

Only after a long while did he slowly speak, his voice graver than ever before.

"The reason our Body Sect stands alongside Shrek Academy and the Illustrious Virtue Hall as one of the continent's three great powers is our secret Body Martial Soul Second Awakening technique, unrivaled under heaven."

"Second Awakening is divided into four ranks: black iron, bronze, silver, and gold."

"Black iron increases overall combat power by thirty percent, bronze by sixty percent, and silver by one hundred percent!"

"As for gold rank..."

Du Busi took a deep breath and continued.

"Gold-Rank Second Awakening can instantly increase combat power by three hundred percent!"

"Although I am only a Level 98 Super Douluo, once I activate Gold-Rank Second Awakening, I can hold my own even against a Level 99 Limit Douluo!"

At those words, the Body Sect disciples around him all sucked in a breath of cold air.

But Du Busi had not finished.

"Yet I have never even heard of Third Awakening."

"Even in the Body Sect's records, there is no mention of Third Awakening."

"Second Awakening alone can place a Body Martial Soul above all other Martial Souls, beyond the bounds of the mundane."

"Wouldn't Third Awakening make it worthy of being called a god!"

"Even if I spent my entire life pursuing it, I could never reach that realm. It has never even appeared in legend!"

"And yet that Huo Yuhao in the sky has already attained it!"

Du Busi whirled around and addressed the Body Sect elders.

"Pass down my order!"

"Mobilize all of the Body Sect's informants and investigate Huo Yuhao's origins!"

"Even if you have to turn the whole Douluo Continent upside down, find him!"

"If someone with such heaven-defying talent could join our Body Sect, he would surely be the hope of our sect's resurgence!"

Black World, Shrek Academy, Sea God Pavilion.

"No! We absolutely cannot let this little beast go!"

Xuan Zi lay on his sickbed, trembling with rage as he slammed his bandaged arm against the edge of the bed.

After receiving treatment from Elder Zhuang, he had finally regained consciousness from the injuries inflicted by the golden lightning.

Yet the moment he woke up, he saw the image of Huo Yuhao slaughtering the Shrek Inspection Corps in the sky.

"To attack the Shrek Inspection Corps is to make an enemy of justice across the entire continent!"

"The Inspection Corps watches over the world, killing corrupt officials and Evil Soul Masters, and has carved out a resounding reputation across the continent!"

"This Huo Yuhao dared to attack the Inspection Corps. He's an Evil Soul Master brat through and through!"

"Yan Shaozhe, issue the order at once. Capture that brat Huo Yuhao and kill him!"

Yan Shaozhe, standing beside the bed, twitched at the corner of his mouth and was about to speak.

But an aged figure slowly walked into the room.

"Teacher!"

Yan Shaozhe hurriedly bowed in greeting.

Mu En waved a hand. His gaze lingered on Xuan Zi for a moment before he spoke calmly.

"Xuan Zi, focus on recovering. Stay out of everything else."

Xuan Zi opened his mouth, but under Mu En's calm gaze, he ultimately did not dare say another word.

Mu En turned to Yan Shaozhe.

"Yan Shaozhe, pass down my order. Place Huo Yuhao under protection at once."

"Protect him?"

Yan Shaozhe was slightly taken aback.

"Teacher, I think Xuan Zi is right. It is an indisputable fact that the Huo Yuhao in the sky slaughtered our Shrek Inspection Corps!"

"That was done by Huo Yuhao from a parallel world. What does it have to do with him in this world?"

Mu En asked the question calmly.

Yan Shaozhe was immediately at a loss for words.

"Besides, you have all seen the talent Huo Yuhao possesses in the sky."

A glint flashed through Mu En's eyes.

"A Body Martial Soul that has undergone Third Awakening, Ultimate Ice, and that enormous blood-red sword."

"Wouldn't a genius like that tempt the Body Sect? Wouldn't he tempt the Illustrious Virtue Hall?"

"I dare say that before long, the continent's major powers will flock to Shrek Academy like sharks scenting blood!"

"So now, we must get ahead of them and bind Huo Yuhao firmly to Shrek Academy's warship!"

Hearing Mu En's words, Xian Lin'er, who was also in the Sea God Pavilion but had remained silent for a long time, suddenly stepped forward.

"Mu En, since we intend to protect Huo Yuhao, why not leave him with our Soul Tool Department?"

"The Huo Yuhao in the sky possesses a powerful spiritual-type Martial Soul and spiritual power far beyond that of ordinary people. He's an ideal prospect for studying Soul Tools!"

Yan Shaozhe's expression immediately changed.

"Lin'er, you can't say that!"

"Huo Yuhao possesses the terrifying talent to achieve a Body Martial Soul's Third Awakening. A talent like that should be nurtured by my Martial Soul Department. As for what your Soul Tool Department is worth..."

"Enough. Stop arguing, both of you."

Mu En settled the matter with a single stroke.

"We'll do as Lin'er said. Take Huo Yuhao to the Soul Tool Department and place him under protection."

Yan Shaozhe: ...

"Understood, teacher!"

After Yan Shaozhe left, Mu En turned his gaze back toward the sky.

A plan slowly took shape in his mind.
