Douluo Continent, Spirit City.

The rising dawn sent the cool morning breeze sweeping through.

The orphanage behind Central Divine Mountain released more than a dozen black dots, gathering elsewhere.

Ye Tian followed the group at an unhurried pace.

He burped contentedly, anticipation gleaming in his eyes.

He had waited so long.

He was finally going to awaken his Martial Soul!

Whether he would be a dragon or a worm in this life basically depended on this one shot.

In his previous life,

Ye Tian had been a somewhat chuunibyou college student, obsessed with the art of medicine.

From trying pill refining to falling in love with pill refining.

In the end, he tested drugs on himself, died, and made it into the school history books. How glorious!

Ye Tian stared at the path ahead.

Yesterday could not be kept.

In this life, he had to be cautious—more cautious than ever!

He just didn't know what Martial Soul he would awaken later.

After all, according to Wang Ma,

there was no information whatsoever about his parents in his records.

Before he had even opened his eyes,

a Spirit Hall Spirit Master had picked him up from an alchemy furnace in a garbage heap.

All he could say was that he was fucking destined for furnaces!

In short,

he had only one wish right now: awaken a powerful Martial Soul!

If that did not happen,

then he could only rely on the three potential stocks at the orphanage.

Pulling his thoughts back,

Ye Tian silently wished himself a happy birthday.

Then he slowly walked toward the Martial Soul Awakening Hall.

--

Martial Soul awakenings

were already an everyday occurrence in Spirit City.

They happened every day.

It was just that today was a little special, and livelier than usual.

Every year, Spirit City selected the end of one month and gathered all eligible descendants born that month to awaken their Martial Souls together under the Pope's watchful eye.

This demonstrated the Pope's emphasis on nurturing the next generation.

At this moment,

the morning light had just faded.

At the sunward foot of Central Divine Mountain in Spirit City,

rows of seats had already been set up before the Martial Soul Awakening Hall, every one of them occupied.

Seated in the place of honor was a man with golden hair and golden eyes, wearing a golden crown and formal robes. Beneath his righteous and imposing majesty lurked a darkness unknown to others.

He was Spirit Hall's Pope, Qian Xunji!

"Sigma, begin."

Qian Xunji ordered majestically.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

The Red Bishop named Sigma immediately nodded in acceptance and slowly stepped forward.

He began today's Martial Soul awakening ceremony.

Among those standing at the front were quite a few descendants of Spirit Hall's upper ranks.

They hoped to make an appearance before the Pope.

To have their names remembered would already be an immense honor in their eyes!

This way,

starting with those more experienced children would ensure that no disturbance occurred.

Sigma's rough voice boomed like muffled thunder.

"Dragon Head Cane Martial Soul, Innate Soul Power level six. Not bad. Next!"

"Heart Protection Mirror Martial Soul, Innate Soul Power level five. Next!"

"..."

Ye Tian stood in the line, his expression calm as he listened to the thunderous calls.

This was Spirit City.

Other than those who had yet to awaken their Martial Souls, everyone was a Spirit Master.

The Martial Soul Quality was naturally quite impressive.

There was nothing much to think about.

Watching the various Martial Souls, Ye Tian slowly shifted his gaze away.

He looked towards Pope Qian Xunji, seated in the place of honor.

But his gaze was immediately drawn to the woman beside Qian Xunji.

It was not because of her appearance, but because of the terrifying killing intent surrounding her. Even from so far away, it sent chills through one's body and made people afraid to look at her directly.

Her wine red hair framed an exquisite, slightly pale face. Her delicate figure rose and fell in graceful curves, balanced and straight.

Her purple eyes were utterly cold.

She seemed entirely uninterested in the ceremony, and faint disgust showed on her face. Whenever she occasionally looked towards the man beside her, her eyes brimmed with resentment.

Has she already been to the City of Slaughter?

Ye Tian thought to himself.

He knew her identity: Spirit Hall's foolish Saintess, Bibi Dong. Ye Tian also knew why she behaved this way.

After all,

he had seen that unlucky kid before, someone slightly older than himself.

Presumably, he had already awakened his Martial Soul.

Six-winged Angel.

Ye Tian shifted his gaze away, just in time to avoid Bibi Dong's glance.

Awakening a Martial Soul did not take much time.

Very soon,

Ye Tian was only a few spots away from the Hexagram Array.

Several companions from the orphanage stood ahead of him.

"Platypus Martial Soul, Innate Soul Power level three. Next!"

"..."

"Iron Rooster Martial Soul, Innate Soul Power level four. Next!"

"Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul, hmm?"

Seeing the little grass before him, Sigma raised his thick brows and handed over a crystal ball.

"No Soul Power! Next..."

As the other child left the stage in dejection, Ye Tian took a deep breath at the command and calmly stepped forward.

He stood in the center of the Hexagram Array.

Under the operation of the Red Bishop beside him,

golden light descended.

Ye Tian only felt the blood in his body begin to boil, as though something was about to burst out from within him.

Strands of milky white light spilled from his body surface.

Ye Tian could not help extending his right hand and staring at the milky white light gathering in his palm.

Faint medicinal fragrance actually spread through the surroundings!

"What is going on?!"

The sudden change instantly drew everyone's attention, causing a small stir.

A hint of anticipation appeared in the eyes of Pope Qian Xunji and Chrysanthemum Ghost.

Bibi Dong was initially stunned.

When she carefully inhaled the medicinal fragrance, she immediately felt refreshed. A strange glint flashed through her eyes as she looked towards Ye Tian.

Sigma's eyes widened slightly.

He was the closest, and he even had the illusion that his Soul Power was flowing faster.

Ye Tian cast aside all thoughts in his heart.

The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, ready to rise at any moment.

Buzz—!

Milky white energy gathered in Ye Tian's palm.

It condensed into a transparent pellet.

Milky white, viscous mist drifted around it like an auspicious cloud.

The moment the Martial Soul appeared,

it seemed as though a faint white mist filled the area around Ye Tian.

Sigma bent down and murmured in confusion:

"This is..."

"A Pill?!!"

Ye Tian said in astonishment.

The milky white gleam reflected in his black eyes, and the corner of his mouth curled up strangely.

What a fucking coincidence!!!

"Oh?"

"It is actually a Pill?"

Sigma nodded.

He keenly sensed that this Martial Soul was far from ordinary.

Although Sigma was burly and looked fierce,

at this moment,

he tried his best to make his enormous bull-like eyes appear gentle.

He bent down slightly.

A bandit-like smile appeared on his face, and his rough voice softened a little.

"Kid, what is your name?"

Looking at the steel-needle-like stubble on his face, Ye Tian restrained the urge to smooth it down and replied calmly:

"Ye Tian."

"Ye Tian? Hmm. Not a bad name, though it lacks a little killing intent."

Sigma nodded slightly.

Still wearing that amiable smile, he handed the crystal ball to Ye Tian.

"Then, Ye Tian, test your Soul Power!"

Ye Tian nodded and extended his hand.

He no longer had any worries.

A Food System Martial Soul with such a phenomenon was bound to possess considerable Soul Power!

In the blink of an eye,

the crystal ball turned into a dazzling gemstone, brilliant beyond compare!

Even Ye Tian, who had prepared himself mentally, could not help but beam with joy as excitement surged through him. His talent was truly outstanding!

"Innate Full Soul Power!"

Sigma's eyes widened, unable to believe it.

A new book has set out on its journey. Please support it with follow-up reading!
