Opening

Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

Inside the spacious hall, a group of children were undergoing Spirit Awakening.

An old man in a white robe stood before them.

"Congratulations, child. Your Martial Soul is the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda. Next, let's test your Innate Soul Power."

A kind smile rested on the old man's face as he took out a blue crystal ball and gestured for the child to place a hand on it.

Ye Feng, mixed in among the crowd, stared blankly at everything before him, his eyes filled with shock.

"Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda, Martial Soul?"

"I came to the Douluo Continent!"

"Then who am I?"

"Where did I come from, and where am I going?"

For a moment, Ye Feng felt his mind descend into chaos.

Just as his thoughts became muddled, a strange set of memories suddenly emerged.

Ye Feng hurriedly steadied himself and did his best to digest the information appearing in his mind.

After a while, he finally understood his circumstances and identity.

This really was the Douluo Continent, and the place he was in was the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

He was an orphan. His parents had given their lives for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect two years ago, after which the sect had taken him in.

Today was the monthly Spirit Awakening day.

If he awakened a Martial Soul and possessed the talent to cultivate, he would become an honored Spirit Master and a disciple of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

If he lacked cultivation talent, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect would still keep him, but he could only live as an ordinary person from then on.

Once he grew up, he would be assigned to one of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's businesses. If he was lucky, he might become a shopkeeper; if not, he could only farm.

"Child, don't be nervous. It's your turn. Come up quickly."

At that moment, a kind voice startled Ye Feng awake. Looking up, he saw the white-robed old man waving at him.

Ye Feng clenched his palms and stepped forward to stand before the old man.

Awakening his Martial Soul concerned his future. He could not help being nervous.

Seeing that Ye Feng was ready, the white-robed old man spread out his hands, revealing six pitch-black stones in his palms.

He clapped his hands together, and a layer of Golden Light spilled out from the six stones.

The six stones spun as they rose above Ye Feng's head, forming a golden barrier that enveloped him.

Within the barrier, Ye Feng only felt warmth spreading through his body as a warm energy flowed into him.

The next moment, as though something had shattered, all the warm energy surged throughout his body at once.

His hands and back in particular underwent obvious changes.

Before Ye Feng's eyes, his hands quickly turned into chicken claws. His clothes tore open at the back, and a pair of tiny sparrow wings grew out.

Even when spread open, those wings were only about as long as his arms.

As the changes occurred, Ye Feng felt his eyesight improve instantly.

He could even clearly see the astonished expressions of the other children from the corners of his eyes.

In an instant, an inexplicable understanding surfaced in his heart.

Ye Feng understood that he had awakened a Beast Martial Soul, though this Beast Martial Soul was rather ordinary.

It was an Ordinary Sparrow, and its combat ability was not strong.

Just as disappointment filled Ye Feng's heart, a mechanical notification suddenly rang out in his mind.

"Ding! Congratulations, host. The Auto-Upgrade System is activating..."

"Activation successful!"

"Your Martial Soul sensed the host's disappointment and became extremely angry. It has decided to prove itself. Martial Soul evolution has begun..."

"Ding! Through its efforts, your Martial Soul has successfully completed a stage of evolution. Evolution progress: 1/10."

"A system?" Joy appeared on Ye Feng's face. Sure enough, a system was standard equipment for transmigrators. He was no exception.

The stage of evolution in his Martial Soul made Ye Feng feel as though it had undergone some inexplicable change.

Its chicken claws seemed a little sharper, and the wings on his back seemed longer by two or three centimeters, though it was impossible to tell from the outside.

At that moment, a transparent status panel appeared in Ye Feng's field of vision.

Host: Ye Feng

Martial Soul: Ordinary Sparrow (1/10)

Level: Half a level

Soul Skill: None

"Half a level? Isn't that Grandmaster's standard? My Innate Soul Power is actually only half a level?"

The joy brought by the system vanished in an instant. Ye Feng was disappointed again—no, he was desperate.

A common Martial Soul was one thing, but to become an outstanding Spirit Master, the key was still Innate Soul Power. Innate Soul Power determined cultivation speed.

With half a level of Innate Soul Power, no matter how powerful his Martial Soul was, his achievements would be limited.

Just like Grandmaster, who had cultivated for most of his life yet could not even break through Level 30.

"Ding! Your Meditation Method sensed your despair and felt indignant."

"Talent is innate. What does it have to do with the Meditation Method? To prove itself, the Meditation Method erupted..."

"Ding! Through the Meditation Method's efforts, your potential has been awakened. Your Innate Soul Power has risen to Level 10, Innate Full Soul Power."

"Oh! So the Meditation Method is the real Big Shot. Awesome!" The smile at the corners of Ye Feng's mouth was nearly impossible to conceal.

"Ding! Your Meditation Method received your praise and felt greatly encouraged. It has decided to keep up the good work and bury itself in hard training."

"Ding! Your Martial Soul sensed that its status was under threat and decided to accelerate its evolution..."

"Hehehe!"

This string of good news instantly excited Ye Feng, and a series of foolish giggles escaped his mouth.

"Good child, you awakened a sparrow, a Beast Martial Soul."

"Congratulations. Beast Martial Souls generally possess cultivation talent."

"But it still needs to be tested. Come, child, place your hand on this crystal ball."

Seeing Ye Feng's appearance after Martial Soul Possession, the smile on the white-robed old man's face deepened.

On the Douluo Continent, Martial Souls were divided into two categories.

One was Beast Martial Souls, and the other was Tool Martial Souls. Of the two, Beast Martial Souls were generally stronger.

Since Ye Feng had awakened a Beast Martial Soul, it proved that he had the aptitude to be nurtured. They only needed to see how many levels of Innate Soul Power he possessed.

Looking at the blue crystal ball handed over by the white-robed old man, Ye Feng dismissed his Martial Soul Possession with a thought, then reached out and placed his hand on it.

The moment his palm touched it, he sensed an enormous suction force coming from the crystal ball.

The energy in his body rushed out, instantly being absorbed by the crystal ball.

In an instant, dazzling radiance erupted from the crystal ball.

Under its hazy glow, the crystal ball was as beautiful as a brilliant gemstone.

"Heavens! It's actually Innate Full Soul Power! Hahaha, our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is going to prosper!"

Seeing the changes in the crystal ball, the white-robed old man excitedly put it away.

"Child, wait here for a moment. I'll go notify the Sect Master."

Innate Full Soul Power was a treasure no matter where one went. A genius like this had to be reported to the Sect Master immediately.

After the white-robed old man hurried away.

The children around Ye Feng instantly crowded around him, looking at him with worshipful faces as they chattered nonstop.

Ye Feng forced a stiff smile. The children's questions were so strange that even he could barely handle them.

He had the mentality of an adult. To him, these children were all juniors, and as an elder, he rather liked children.

Especially since these children were only a few years old and had not yet gone astray. Every one of them was adorable.
