Douluo Continent.

Notting City.

Outside Notting Junior Academy.

With a soft screech of brakes, an ornate carriage stopped before the gates of Notting Junior Academy.

The curtain was lifted, and a six-year-old child dressed in luxurious clothes stepped down from the carriage expressionlessly.

The child radiated an icy aura. The moment he appeared, the surrounding onlookers erupted into cries!

"Such a powerful presence! Who exactly is this child?"

"That was Young Master Qin He, wasn't it?"

"Young Master Qin He truly is the son of the Notting City Lord. I heard he's a peerless genius—when he was born, crimson light descended from the heavens, and all the Soul Power within ten miles was completely absorbed!"

"More than that, I heard even Spirit Hall learned of Young Master Qin He's talent. Before he's even undergone a Spirit test, they've already offered excellent terms in hopes of recruiting him!"

"Countless major powers want to arrange marriages with Young Master Qin He. Those are all prominent noble families!"

"Young Master Qin He is only six years old. Why is the gap between people so huge?"

"Have the people of Douluo Continent gone mad? Can't they let me keep a low profile?"

Qin He was helpless, and even had a headache.

That was right. Qin He had originally been a university student. After staying up late playing games one night, a streak of rosy light flashed before his eyes, and he inexplicably transmigrated into the world of Douluo Continent.

The owner of this body was also named Qin He. He was the legitimate son of Qin Zhan, the Notting City Lord, and had been doted upon since birth.

Qin Zhan had never appeared in the original novel, but in reality, his status was extremely high and his strength formidable. He was not only a city lord, but also the Purple Rose Earl of the Heaven Dou Empire—a Level 54 Soul King with the Fierce Tiger Spirit.

But Qin He was panicking now.

Because the moment Qin He transmigrated, he had been bound to a system called the Breath Enhancement System.

One breath out, one level up. One breath in, another level up. There were no bottlenecks whatsoever.

Douluo Continent was a world of Spirits. Everyone was born with a Spirit, and the stronger the Spirit's grade, the more powerful it was.

The level cap of this world should have been Level 99, known as Limit Douluo. As for Level 100, that was the level of godhood.

Thus, at the age of six, Qin He had already reached the system's upper limit.

As he scanned his current system panel, Qin He could not help feeling a headache coming on.

Name: Qin He Level: LV1000

That was right—such a simple and brutal level. Level 1000!

The system offered no further explanation, nor did it say what Spirit Qin He had awakened.

After all, with power this overwhelming, even if a god descended upon Douluo Continent, he would probably be one-shotted!

He could even simulate any Spirit he wanted. Even the rarest Spirits, something like an Angel, would be effortless.

Logically speaking, Qin He should have used his tremendous power to rule Douluo Continent or something.

But in truth, Qin He only wanted to live a quiet, ordinary life on Douluo Continent. As for grand dreams, he could leave those to the original protagonist!

Besides, this body of Qin He's was only six years old. Asking a six-year-old child to crush heaven and earth was a bit ridiculous, wasn't it?

Yet the problem was that even though Qin He suppressed himself with all his strength, the powerful aura of Soul Power around him still inevitably leaked out.

At only six years old, he had already been thrust into the spotlight. Countless factions were watching for the awakening of his Spirit, hoping to recruit Qin He before anyone else could.

"Young Master, it's time for the Spirit test!"

Just then, a young girl in a black-and-white maid outfit reminded the absent-minded Qin He in a sweet, clear voice.

Qin He, who had been walking while lost in thought, could not help raising his head.

"The Spirit Awakening Ceremony? This is a good opportunity. As long as I suppress my Spirit to an ordinary grade, those major powers probably won't pay attention to me anymore, right?"

Countless thoughts flashed through Qin He's mind.

Everyone on Douluo Continent underwent Spirit awakening at Spirit Hall when they turned six.

Spirits could be animals, plants, or objects. Different Spirits had different strengths and uses, so Spirits with too little power were called Trash Spirits.

Qin He certainly would not deliberately awaken a Trash Spirit. After putting on such an impressive show early on, suddenly becoming worthless now would only draw even more attention to him!

That kind of underdog comeback persona was better left to the protagonist!

All Qin He needed was to control the degree, awaken a relatively outstanding Spirit, and satisfy everyone's curiosity.

The broad plaza of Notting Academy was already packed with young boys and girls who had come for testing.

Spirit testing was held once a year and conducted by Spirit Hall.

As the largest junior academy in Notting City, Notting Academy produced countless Soul Masters every year.

Therefore, Spirit Hall had established a branch within Notting Academy as well, and it was far livelier than the smaller villages below.

At the center of the plaza stood a handsome young man with sharp brows and bright eyes, dressed in fitted white clothes. The Lone Wolf Spirit behind him bloomed forth, giving off an imposing aura.

"I am Su Yuntao, a Level 25 Beast Spirit Grandmaster!"

One white and one yellow Soul Ring rose from his body. At the same time, Su Yuntao's figure rapidly swelled, brimming with a sense of strength.

At the sight, many children were stunned. They all took a step back, their eyes filled with fear and dread, but also admiration and curiosity.

Under the teachers' supervision in the plaza, the crowd gradually quieted down. The children formed a long line and came forward one by one to test their Spirits.

The tool character Su Yuntao had entered the stage!

Su Yuntao, Spirit Hall's designated tool character, was responsible for awakening the Spirits of children from every village.

In the original novel, this big shot had awakened the Spirit of the protagonist Tang San and declared his Blue Silver Grass to be a Trash Spirit.

Then Tang San became a god in the end. That slap to the face must have left it swollen beyond recognition...

At this moment, Su Yuntao watched expressionlessly as a child stepped forward.

Golden light flickered and enveloped the child.

"Innate Soul Power Level 3. Spirit: kitten!"

After announcing the result of the Spirit test, Su Yuntao felt no ripple in his heart.

As a veteran who had tested countless children, he clearly knew that this child had a chance of becoming a Soul Master, but his future achievements were destined not to be very high.

"No Innate Soul Power. Spirit: wooden stick. Unable to become a Soul Master!"

"Innate Soul Power Level 5. Spirit: Blue Silver Grass! Trash Spirit!"

As one child after another finished testing, Su Yuntao grew increasingly disappointed.

"Even in a major city like Notting City, exceptional talent isn't all that common!"

"I heard Qin He, the son of the Notting City Lord, is rather extraordinary. I hope he can give me a little surprise!"

As he thought this, Su Yuntao could not help glancing in Qin He's direction.

Qin He stood there expressionlessly, calm and composed. His demeanor was utterly different from the other children, who had shrunk back in fear upon seeing the Lone Wolf Spirit.

"As expected of the genius youth renowned throughout Notting City. This composure already surpasses that of ordinary children by far!"
