Douluo Continent.
Spirit City, Spirit Academy.
The Spirit Awakening ceremony was underway.
One after another, youthful boys and girls stood with anticipation gleaming in their eyes.
Under the guidance of the Spirit Academy teachers, they placed their palms against a Spirit Awakening crystal ball.
"Hu Liena, top-tier Beast Spirit, Demon Fox. Innate Soul Power level nine. Suitable development direction: Control-Type Beast Spirit Master."
"Xie Yue, top-tier Weapon Spirit, Moon Blade. Innate Soul Power level eight. Suitable development direction: Assault-Type Weapon Spirit Master."
"Yan, top-tier dual-element fire-and-earth Beast Spirit, Flame Lord. Innate Soul Power level eight. Suitable development direction: Assault-Type Beast Spirit Master."
"Xu Yu, top-tier Spirit, Brilliant Gold Scepter. Innate Soul Power level seven. Suitable development direction: Support-Type Weapon Spirit Master."
"."
As the boys and girls awakened one after another, the Spirit Awakening crystal displayed their respective Spirits, Soul Power, and attributes.
With the academy teacher's announcements, Spirit Hall's Golden Generation had all completed their Spirit Awakenings.
At that moment, a young boy in the crowd slowly clenched his fists.
His eyes were filled with resolve.
Chen Changfeng.
He was an unfortunate transmigrator.
The legendary system had never arrived.
The moment he came to this world, he had been caught in the border war between the Heaven Dou Empire and Star Luo Empire. He watched helplessly as his new parents died beneath the iron cavalry of the two empires while protecting him.
Like Hu Liena and Xie Yue, Chen Changfeng had been taken in and raised by Spirit Hall from a young age.
Thus, he constantly reminded himself that he would dedicate his life to Spirit Hall in repayment for its nurturing grace.
The system had not awakened, and this Spirit Awakening would be his final chance. After all, Spirit Hall did not have much time left. Tang San's arrival in the world, Qian Xunji's death, Bibi Dong's succession—everything was the original sin that would lead Spirit Hall to destruction.
"Nana, you're incredible."
"You actually awakened Innate Soul Power level nine."
"It looks like you'll definitely be the one chosen as His Holiness the Pope's personal disciple this time."
Before the final results were even out, Yan had already started flattering Hu Liena.
Sure enough, the bootlicker gene had been activated since childhood.
Hu Liena also enjoyed being the center of attention. She could not help lifting her little chest and confidently looking up toward the academy's raised platform.
Standing there was Spirit Hall's Pope, Bibi Dong.
Bibi Dong was not tall. She wore a dazzling gold ceremonial gown from head to toe, tailored perfectly to her figure. The resplendent gown glittered with treasure light and was adorned with over a hundred red, blue, and gold gemstones. The Nine-Curved Purple-Gold Crown atop her head shone with countless rays of light, while she held a nearly two-meter-long scepter inlaid with innumerable gems.
Her fair skin and nearly flawless features made her seem utterly extraordinary. In particular, the invisible nobility and sanctity she exuded made people unable to resist the urge to worship her.
"Chen Changfeng, Spirit: Ordinary Scepter. Innate Soul Power level one. Suitable development direction: Healing-Type Weapon Spirit Master."
Just then.
The awakening teacher's final announcement rang out.
This Spirit Awakening had come to a complete end.
"Heh, Healing Type?"
"Isn't that the most useless kind of Spirit?"
Hearing the recording teacher's announcement, Hu Liena turned to look at him, not forgetting to add another jab at Chen Changfeng.
What entered her sight was a tall, slender, handsome youth with sword-like brows and bright starry eyes.
Those starry eyes were filled with unwillingness.
But what use was unwillingness? A Spirit was something one was born with. No one could change it.
"An Ordinary Scepter really does seem useless."
Following Hu Liena's lead, Yan added, "Spirit Academy has never trained Healing-Type Soul Masters."
Xie Yue gave Chen Changfeng an indifferent glance and smiled. "Looks like he has no connection with us. Wasn't there someone named Xu Yu just now, with a top-tier support-type Brilliant Gold Scepter? The same type of Spirit, yet different attributes. Perhaps that's fate."
The strong never cared about the weak.
Moreover, Chen Changfeng had always been withdrawn and unsociable while growing up.
So he did not attract much attention.
Hearing their mockery.
Chen Changfeng clenched his fists even tighter. Their words might have been unpleasant, but they were the truth.
If Chen Changfeng's scepter Spirit had awakened in either of the two empires, perhaps he could still have had decent prospects. But he had awakened at Spirit Academy.
Spirit Academy never trained Healing-Type Soul Masters.
First, Healing-Type Soul Masters required even more resources to train than Support-Type Soul Masters. Second, Healing-Type Soul Masters became living targets on the battlefield, and Healing-Type Soul Masters without sufficient strength found it even harder to achieve large-scale healing.
Was this fate?
But Chen Changfeng was not someone who believed in fate.
"Ding."
"Detected the host's intense unwillingness. Binding the Destruction System."
"Binding successful."
Chen Changfeng's gaze instantly sharpened.
A system?!
It had been six whole years late.
At last, a trace of hope ignited in his heart. He eagerly asked, "Destruction System, what can you do?"
"Destruction, as the name implies, is the complete ruin or eradication of something. Each time the host destroys an enemy, the host will receive a tremendous increase in cultivation. The stronger the enemy, the greater the reward."
After hearing the system's explanation.
Chen Changfeng understood.
So it was all about destruction.
Over the past six years, he had often felt that the destruction of the Douluo world would be a release for all living things. The so-called Douluo Continent was nothing more than a great prison. Everything cycled through life and death, multiplied and survived, fought and competed, caught in a vicious cycle. If the Douluo world were destroyed, everyone would be freed.
But he still had to repay Spirit Hall for raising him.
From this day onward, Spirit Hall was all he saw. Everything else should be destroyed.
Over the next few decades, he would first give Spirit Hall an entire Douluo Continent.
If this world remained the same.
Then let it be completely destroyed!
"Ding. As this is the system's first activation, the host is awarded a Beginner Gift Pack. Open it now?"
"Open it." Chen Changfeng could barely wait.
"Congratulations, host. Your scepter Spirit has been upgraded to the god-tier Destruction Scepter. Your Soul Power has increased by nine levels, advancing you to Soul Master. You have been awarded one God-Bestowed Soul Ring. You have comprehended the beginner divine skill, Annihilation Thunder. You have comprehended the Source of Destruction Domain."
"Soul Ring mechanism activated and matching complete. Organizing system panel."
Name: Chen Changfeng Spirit: Destruction Scepter Class: Level Ten Battle Soul Master Domain: Source of Destruction Soul Ring Configuration: Red (Upgradeable) Divine Skill Configuration: First Divine Skill—Annihilation Thunder (Upgradeable)
Annihilation Thunder, active divine skill: Purple-black lightning. If it appeared in the mortal world, a single strike would easily destroy an entire city and obliterate a mountain range.
Source of Destruction, passive god-tier domain: Within the domain, all physical, energy-based, and spiritual attacks from those with lower Soul Power than the host can be destroyed. At the same time, the host receives the blessing of the Source of Destruction. While enveloped by the Source of Destruction, the host's use of divine skills is not limited by Soul Power. Each divine skill may be used once per day without cost.
Chen Changfeng stared blankly at his attribute panel.
Clearly.
His system was just a tiny bit overpowered.
Shouldn't a level ten Soul Master have a thousand-year yellow ring?
What the hell was a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring?
And divine skills?
Chen Changfeng stared at the two skills on the attribute panel.
Divine Skill—Annihilation Thunder!
Divine Skill—Source of Destruction!
And what was with these skills?
Didn't ordinary level ten Soul Masters have things like Lightning Release, Lightning Possession, and Lightning Enhancement?
It had given him divine skills right away!
