Jiang Shiran (Please Add to Favorites, Boss!)

On Azure Star.

Although human civilization had already expanded into the starry regions, humanity remained locked in constant, tense warfare with the native alien races and the worlds beyond the domain.

In the past, creatures from beyond the domain had flooded into Blue Star. From top to bottom, the entire human race had become soldiers and fought the alien races fiercely, ultimately defeating them.

Only now had peace and stability returned, but no matter where one was, strength remained an eternal and unchanging truth!

Aside from their advanced civilization, humanity's martial path had progressed at an especially rapid pace. Schools across the nation had long since valued martial studies over academics. Every student hoped to grow powerful, become someone important, bring glory to their ancestors, or pursue longevity and remain in the world forever.

Inside a spacious classroom spanning over a thousand square meters, people packed together in a surging crowd.

"I wonder what the result will be... The pressure is crushing me..."

Chen Feng, somewhat tall and lean yet strikingly handsome, took a deep breath. He held a white testing slip in his right hand, which trembled faintly from his nerves. His dark eyes stared at the one-meter-long, cylindrical white Energy Stone in the room, with not the slightest confidence in his heart.

The occasional faint white halos emitted by the Energy Stone reflected in his pupils as stray thoughts churned through his mind.

He was a transmigrator. Strictly speaking, he had been reincarnated here, and he was now sixteen years old!

Unfortunately, there was still no sign of him awakening a Martial Soul. He had no powerful gifted physique, nor had he discovered any sort of system.

Chen Feng had always thought that he was a triple-no transmigrator!

Among humanity, students generally began to mature physically at sixteen, and only then did Soul Power emerge. That was why so many people began testing and awakening at this age.

It'd be best if it were an attack-type Martial Soul, an extremely powerful one. Then I could become strong!

Chen Feng thought to himself.

At that moment, many people had gathered outside the windows to watch. Even those who had not come for the test were there to enjoy the spectacle.

They wanted to befriend people with Martial Souls so that they could gain some protection at school.

There were many spectators, but only a little over a hundred had actually come to awaken.

In truth, there were more than sixty thousand students Chen Feng's age in this Jiangzhou District class year. Gathering this many Martial Soul awakeners was not considered too few.

"Look, the teacher's here!"

A student looked toward the classroom entrance.

In the distance, the teacher entered slowly through the doorway, her gaze bright and piercing.

She was young, but her expression was stern. People called her Cold-Blooded Teacher because they rarely saw her smile.

A powerful ripple surrounded the teacher's body, like rising heat waves, drawing everyone's eyes!

"This presence..."

"It's Cold-Blooded Teacher!"

"I'm so jealous. If I could reach the teacher's level someday, that'd be incredible!"

The surrounding students discussed it animatedly.

One student looked at the teacher's figure, and his eyes nearly could not move away. I don't know how strong Teacher is, but she's definitely very big—cough, cough—older than us.

"Quiet!" A voice rang out.

The calm voice sounded like thunder in everyone's ears, and they all quieted down of their own accord.

"Now, the awakening tests will begin! Whoever is called, come forward!"

As soon as the teacher finished speaking,

a staff member read from the list, "Jiang Shiran, come up for your test!"

A girl in the room walked onto the platform nervously.

"Begin!"

"Yes, Teacher!"

Jiang Shiran stood quietly, then placed her hand on an Energy Stone.

Then,

the air began to hum. A white ball of energy swayed, releasing a faint glow that entered Jiang Shiran's body.

A blurry cluster of light soon appeared above her head.

Buzz!

As time passed, a high, resounding bird cry suddenly rang out from deep within the light.

A fiery bird appeared, covered in crimson feathers, gorgeous and vibrant, like it had been reborn from flames. A terrifying aura spread out, blanketing the entire room.

This was her Martial Soul.

The moment it appeared, everyone felt scorching heat spread through the air, as though they had been cast into a sea of fire and could be burned at any moment.

This scene instantly caused quite a stir throughout the room.

"Th-this is an attack-type bird?"

"If I'm not mistaken, this is the Fire Feather Divine Bird?"

"The Fire Feather Divine Bird?"

Seeing this, the teacher looked at Jiang Shiran with eyes full of appreciation.

Only something like this could make the teacher break into a smile.

"The Fire Feather Divine Bird is a race ranked among the top hundred, isn't it?"

"I read about it in the school books. It's a firebird by nature. When it hunts, flames can ignite across its body, and once it reaches adulthood, its flames can destroy cities and wipe out mountains, rivers, and land for a thousand li around. Rumor has it that such divine birds have appeared on the Outer Domain Battlefield and slain quite a few powerful experts."

"Tsk, tsk, Jiang Shiran has struck it rich. Even among those with Martial Souls, the Fire Feather Divine Bird is a top-ranked Martial Soul!"

Who could have imagined that such a terrifying genius would be found at the very start of the testing? A Martial Soul like this was exceedingly rare even in the history of these tests.

The teacher said, "Jiang Shiran, your Martial Soul ranks among the top hundred creatures of the Outer Domain Races. Having such a Martial Soul is enough to show that your ancestors had some connection to the Fire Feather Divine Bird. Or perhaps it is an ancestral soul that was naturally born."

On Blue Star, Great Xia Nation had used certain methods to draw in vast amounts of heaven-and-earth spiritual energy, causing humanity to produce some innately powerful Martial Souls and other physiques.

"Based on your talent, you can enter the Special Class. Are you willing?"

The teacher wore a smile. It seemed that ever since Jiang Shiran had awakened her Martial Soul, she had not been stingy with her smiles.

As a teacher, she understood even more clearly how terrifying certain geniuses would become once they matured. Although Jiang Shiran was still weak now, she would surely have great prospects in the future.

"I'm willing!" Jiang Shiran trembled all over, her cheeks flushing red.

The Special Class was the best class for Martial Souls. Below it were the Intermediate Class, Regular Class, and General Class.

The Special Class was filled with geniuses selected for key cultivation. They received great attention, and resources naturally tilted in their favor.

Feeling everyone's envious gazes, Jiang Shiran realized that today would change the rest of her life.

"Mm, go back for now. Someone will contact you later and arrange where you'll be placed!"

"Thank you, Teacher!"

Under the crowd's watchful eyes, Jiang Shiran stepped down first.

The testing continued.

More than a dozen students tested one after another, but the results were disappointing.

"Next!"

The teacher called.

Everyone's eyes gathered once more. Anyone who awakened a Martial Soul could pull ahead of ordinary people, and many eagerly anticipated whether today's test would reveal more geniuses!

"Chen Feng, your turn!"

As the words fell, Chen Feng, standing in the corner, immediately focused his gaze and gathered his thoughts, growing somewhat nervous.

This concerned his future fate and prospects.

He strode forward, his expression slightly tense. "Hello, Teacher!"

P.S.: "Please vote and add this to your favorites, thank you!... A book will inevitably have some toxic points, so I hope everyone can be understanding. If you run into something toxic, just ignore it if you can, haha. Little Tian will definitely write better and better later on. Oh right, bro—the one looking at your phone screen right now—since you're here, it's fate! How about reading three hundred chapters first? If you think this book's decent after that, Little Tian will be grateful for your support. Thanks! Love you!"
