Martial Soul Awakening

Chapter 1 Martial Soul Awakening

On the Barren Ancient Continent, a Martial Soul is an essential element for every martial artist's cultivation.

Martial Souls are divided into grades, from low to high: Yellow, Profound, Earth, Heaven, Emperor, God.

"Lin Bai, your soul force is getting stronger and stronger. With your current talent, your Martial Soul Awakening today will at least be Earth Grade, right?"

On a path within the Lin Family estate, a lovely young girl smiled as she affectionately linked arms with the beaming young man beside her.

This girl was named Lin Zier, the daughter of the Lin Family's Grand Elder. She possessed extraordinary talent from a young age and was hailed as the number one genius girl in Spirit Rhino City. The young man beside her was none other than Lin Bai, one of her childhood playmates.

Lin Bai was the only son of the previous Family Head, Lin Duo. From a young age, he also displayed astonishing martial arts talent. He and Lin Zier were known as the "Golden Boy and Jade Girl" of Spirit Rhino City.

"I've consumed so many Soul Nourishing Pills left by my father over the years, and my soul force has greatly improved. I also feel that my Martial Soul is above Earth Grade," Lin Bai said with a slight smile, his eyes firm and gleaming with unusual light.

From Lin Bai's gaze, it was clear that he placed great importance on today's Martial Soul Awakening.

"Once I awaken a Martial Soul above Earth Grade, I'll have enough strength to look for my father. He left without saying goodbye back then, and I suspect it has something to do with my mother," Lin Bai said slowly.

Lin Zier smiled sweetly, "Lin Bai, no matter why Lin Duo left without saying goodbye, I believe that with your talent, you will definitely find him, and you will definitely find your mother."

"Yeah, let's go, Zier. It's getting late, we should go to the Martial Arts Arena."

Lin Zier smiled obediently, looking affectionate as she took Lin Bai's hand and walked into the Martial Arts Arena.

Stepping into the Lin Family's Martial Arts Arena, a sea of disciples waited for their awakening.

"Martial Soul Awakening, let the awakening begin!"

"Lin Hai, come up for your awakening."

In the Martial Arts Arena was a high platform with a large black stone placed on it. This was the Martial Soul Stone.

Hearing the call, a robust young man walked excitedly onto the Martial Soul Stone, placing his hands on it for a moment. Soon, a burst of scarlet light shone from the black Martial Soul Stone.

"Lin Hai, Yellow Grade Fifth Rank Martial Soul, Swift Thunder Cheetah!"

The disciple named Lin Hai, upon hearing that he had a Yellow Grade Fifth Rank Martial Soul, immediately cried out in excitement, "Hahaha, I am Yellow Grade Fifth Rank, Yellow Grade Fifth Rank, haha, I am going to become a martial artist, I am going to become an unparalleled expert!"

A Yellow Grade Fifth Rank Martial Soul was already not low among the Lin Family's disciples.

Lin Hai walked off the high platform amidst the envious gazes of the martial artists.

"Go down, next, Lin Zier."

The elder called out.

Lin Zier smiled at Lin Bai, "Lin Bai, I'm going."

Lin Bai smiled, "Go ahead, good luck."

"Mmm."

Lin Zier nodded obediently and walked onto the high platform.

Not long after Lin Zier placed her hands on the Martial Soul Stone, a soaring pillar of red light shot into the sky, allowing all martial artists within tens of thousands of miles to see this red light!

"Red light piercing the sky! It's Heaven Grade!"

"Heaven Grade Martial Soul!"

"My heavens, even Lin Duo back then was only Earth Grade, but Lin Zier is actually Heaven Grade!"

The elder standing next to the Martial Soul Stone was so shocked by the red light that he was speechless. After a long while, he came back to his senses and exclaimed, "Lin Zier, Lin Zier, Lin Zier, Heaven Grade Fifth Rank!"

"Lin Zier, Heaven Grade Fifth Rank Martial Soul, Primordial Goddess Path!"

"Heaven Grade Fifth Rank!"

"Primordial Goddess Path, what kind of Martial Soul is that!"

Lin Bai, hearing the exclamations around him, said calmly, "Primordial Goddess Path, it is qualified to become a God Grade Martial Soul. Once the Martial Soul is awakened, one will be granted unique cultivation techniques. This should be considered among the top hundred Martial Souls in the Heaven Grade!"

"Zier has indeed not disappointed me."

Lin Bai smiled, "Zier's soul force is not as good as mine. Since she has awakened a Heaven Grade Martial Soul, and my soul force is stronger than hers, then my Martial Soul, wouldn't it be..."

Thinking of this, Lin Bai's mouth felt dry with excitement.

Lin Zier's face was flushed with excitement. Amidst the envy of thousands of martial artists, she happily ran to Lin Bai's side and shouted happily, "Lin Bai, did you see it!"

"Yes, congratulations, Zier," Lin Bai said sincerely.

Lin Zier smiled, "Zier's soul force is too weak, not as good as Lin Bai's. Since Zier can awaken a Heaven Grade Martial Soul, then Lin Bai must have at least an Emperor Grade Martial Soul! Zier congratulates Lin Bai in advance."

"Hahaha. It hasn't been awakened yet, it's too early to say congratulations," Lin Bai said with a shake of his head and a smile, his heart pounding!

"Lin Bai, come up for Martial Soul Awakening!"

The elder shouted loudly, and Lin Bai walked onto the high platform upon hearing the call.

"It's Lin Bai! Our Lin Family's number one genius!"

"His father is Lin Duo, who had an Earth Grade Ninth Rank Martial Soul back then. And Lin Bai is his son, who has consumed so many soul force pills since childhood. I believe Lin Bai's Martial Soul will be even more amazing."

"Yes, I'm so looking forward to it. Lin Bai's Martial Soul must be at least Heaven Grade!"

Lin Bai walked onto the high platform and placed his hands on the Martial Soul Stone, whereupon a burst of scarlet light illuminated the stone.

The elder beside him could hardly believe his eyes when he saw the light.

After a moment of astonishment, the elder scoffed and said, "Lin Bai! Yellow Grade, Rank 1 Martial Soul! Sword Martial Soul."

"What?"

"Yellow Grade, Rank 1?"

"Hahaha, that's hilarious! Lin Bai actually has a Yellow Grade, Rank 1."

"The Lin Family has been established in Spirit Rhino City for three hundred years, and there's never been such a useless Martial Soul!"

"Hahaha, trash, why don't you get down here? You're an embarrassment. I'm still Yellow Grade, Rank 5, and you're only Yellow Grade, Rank 1." Lin Hai, who had awakened his Martial Soul earlier, pointed at Lin Bai and mocked him.

"What genius? It's all bullshit!"

Lin Bai stood on the high platform, and after a brief moment of surprise, he bitterly smiled and walked back to Lin Zier's side. "So this is what people are like?"

"Let's go, Zier."

Lin Bai, having awakened a Yellow Grade, Rank 1 Martial Soul, had become the laughingstock of the Martial Arts Arena, and he no longer wanted to stay there.

He reached out to take Lin Zier's hand.

Slap!

Lin Zier forcefully slapped Lin Bai's outstretched hand, turning it purple and red.

Lin Zier said, "Humph, what kind of status do you have that you dare to hold my hand!"

"Lin Bai, you better be aware of your status. A Yellow Grade, Rank 1 piece of trash dares to approach me?" Lin Zier sneered. "I'm warning you, if you dare to come within three steps of me in the future, I will definitely cut off your head!"

"Zier, even you are like this..." Lin Bai looked at Lin Zier in disbelief.

The Lin Zier who used to snuggle up to him, the well-behaved and lovely girl, had now turned into a completely different person!

Lin Bai's face flushed red with anger, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Fine, fine, fine! I, Lin Bai, have misjudged people for the past ten years!"

"It's not that you've misjudged people, it's that I've misjudged you. I originally thought that with your father Lin Duo's talent of awakening an Earth Grade, Rank 9, his son would at least be Earth Grade, Rank 9 or higher."

"But who would have thought that you would be a piece of trash who awakened a Yellow Grade, Rank 1!"

"I was blind, and I even thought of relying on you to pave a path of martial arts for me in the future. Now it's all over, and I've wasted more than ten years of my time." Lin Zier looked at Lin Bai with disgust.

Lin Bai was shocked. "You approached me in order to have me pave a path of martial arts for you...? What about the vows of eternal love we made before? What about the promise of forever?"

Lin Zier sneered, "Hahaha, if your Martial Soul was higher than mine, I might have really married you, but look at you now, a Yellow Grade, Rank 1 piece of trash. We are destined to be people from two different worlds, so don't even think about a toad trying to eat swan meat!"

"I'm a toad? Hahaha, alright, Lin Zier, I will make you regret it. Just wait and see!" After Lin Bai finished speaking, he angrily walked out of the Martial Arts Arena.

Along the way, countless Lin Family martial artists pointed at Lin Bai and laughed loudly, "Hahaha, what Lin Family's number one genius? He's just a Yellow Grade, Rank 1 piece of trash."

"Trash, what are you looking at? I'm Yellow Grade, Rank 3, which is better than you. If you keep looking, I'll dig out your eyes!"

"Trash is trash, and you're still angry? You're just a piece of trash, do you even have the right to be angry?"

The ridicule along the way made Lin Bai feel extremely humiliated. Clenching his fists, Lin Bai said firmly, "I will make you all regret it!"
