The Great Stage of Douluo, My Name is Qian Xunji

As for Qian Renxue, she naturally remained at Martial Soul Hall.

Time passed in a flash, and by the time Qian Xunji reacted, Tang San had already been born.

At the same time, the death of the hundred-thousand-year Blue Silver Emperor Ah Yin was imminent.

Arriving at the scene, Qian Xunji looked at Tang Hao, who was surrounded by a group of Title Douluo, and felt a moment of emotion.

He really knows how to run!

The top powers of the entire continent had mobilized collectively to capture a single Soul Douluo, and he was even carrying a pregnant woman; the fact that he managed to run for so long and that they only caught up after the child was born was absurd enough.

Qian Xunji brought Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo to the side to watch a good show.

The forces that came to capture the hundred-thousand-year Blue Silver Emperor this time were not just Martial Soul Hall, but also the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, and the royal families of the two empires.

Among them, Qian Xunji even saw Sword Douluo Chen Xin and Yu Xiaogang's father, Yu Yuanzhen.

The Clear Sky Sect's Explosive Ring was indeed a god-tier skill for bursting power, and what's more, Tang Hao had also received the sacrifice of the hundred-thousand-year Blue Silver Emperor; he actually broke through the encirclement and escaped!

Qian Xunji watched the show, then left with the somewhat speechless Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo.

Six years later, Holy Soul Village, south of Nuoding City in the Fasinuo Province of the Heaven Dou Empire.

A young boy with silver-white shoulder-length hair and a handsome face was walking toward the mountain carrying a firewood knife.

The villagers nearby saw him and greeted him warmly, "Kai, morning! Are you heading up the mountain?"

"Yes, Auntie Wu, good morning. I'm going up the mountain to check my traps," the young boy replied with a well-behaved nod.

"Be careful then! Oh, right, there are still plenty of greens in my field, go pick some for yourself," the kind-faced aunt said with a smile as she walked toward her field.

Qinglong Zhi—Kai, this was a heroic figure placed in Holy Soul Village, adopted since childhood by an elderly widower in the village.

The pity was that the old man struggled to survive himself, so Kai grew up alongside him and began earning money to manage the household from a very young age.

The most common way he did this was by setting traps on the mountain to catch animals to sell for money.

Star Luo Empire, Star Luo City, the Duke's Mansion of the Zhu Family. Under the auspices of the family, the martial soul awakening ceremony had been prepared well in advance.

Below, the children with tender faces were full of curiosity and hope for the future, all looking forward to their own martial souls.

As each name was called, the boys and girls who awakened their martial souls and soul power were either happy or joyful.

"Zhu Zhuqing!"

Following the voice, a girl with exquisite features and an excellent figure walked out.

The family member in charge of the awakening injected soul power, and the girl was enveloped in golden light spots. Based on the number of light spots, one could vaguely judge that the girl's potential was quite good. Thinking this, the family member in charge, who had previously looked displeased, nodded with a hint of a smile on his face.

On the girl's right hand appeared a small cat, purple all over with a few faint pink outlines.

As expected, it was a Hell Spirit Cat, but her Innate Soul Power was level seven.

Compared to the children with level four or five Innate Soul Power from before, Zhu Zhuqing stood out.

The girl herself knew what this meant; a look of excitement appeared on her face, and her joy could no longer be contained.

However, on the high platform, the man in the family seat, dressed in gorgeous attire and exuding a majestic aura, looked at his daughter Zhu Zhuqing below and sighed.

It was time to confirm the candidate. The imperial family had urged them several times; the partner and fiancée of the Third Prince, Dai Mubai, had to be decided.

Zhuqing and the Third Prince had known each other since childhood; she was the Duke's daughter and had level seven Innate Soul Power. Whether in terms of talent or status, she was suitable.

In reality, the Duke also knew that this so-called engagement was a trap. The gap between the First Prince and the Third Prince was too great, and there was no competition at all. The First Prince was six years older than the Third Prince; when the First Prince awakened his martial soul and began to cultivate, the Third Prince had just been born. The First Prince was the legitimate son born to the Empress, while the Third Prince was the illegitimate son born to a concubine. The Zhu Family naturally supported the First Prince.

To be the Third Prince's fiancée was equivalent to being abandoned.

The girl below looked at her father above with admiration, unaware that her fate had already been arranged.

The names continued to be called, "Ake!"

Dark Night Cat Girl—Ake!

Ake was an orphan raised by the Zhu Family and was also Zhu Zhuqing's playmate. Since childhood, she had been withdrawn, disliked speaking, and possessed a cold temperament.

Ake walked forward, and the person in charge finally noticed this girl who, despite her exquisite and beautiful face, had a very low presence.

As the soul power was injected, dense light spots emerged, enveloping the girl entirely. The golden light was so blinding that it was impossible to see her figure clearly.

The girl opened her right hand, and in her palm was a small, pitch-black cat. The only different color on the entire cat was its pair of pale pink cat eyes.

The person in charge looked it over with some confusion. There were so many light spots; it looked like she had good talent!

But what kind of martial soul was this? His own knowledge was quite extensive, yet he had never seen a powerful cat-type martial soul that looked like this. Could it be a mutated martial soul?

"Ahem, put your martial soul away first and test your soul power." Unable to name the martial soul and assuming that a little girl like Ake wouldn't know what it was either, the person in charge could only cough awkwardly, skip the explanation of the martial soul, and go straight to testing the soul power.

Ake obediently put away her martial soul and, following the steps of the previous children, placed her hand on the crystal ball for testing soul power.

After her palm made contact with the crystal ball, this brilliant blue crystal ball began to emit light, filling the entire crystal ball almost instantly.

"Innate Full Soul Power!" The person in charge also spoke in shock, his voice cracking from fright!

The Grand Duke on the stage looked at the still solitary and silent girl below with burning eyes.

Chapter 7 Six-Winged Angel

Martial Soul City, Pope Palace.

As children who had grown up in the Pope Palace since they were young, the martial soul awakening of these few children naturally received special treatment.

Inside the majestic and ornate Pope Palace, four children stood below: two boys and two girls, namely Qian Renxue, Xiang Yu, Arthur, and the Blazing Sun Divine Light—Jing.

Inside the Pope Palace, elders with extremely high status in Martial Soul Hall stood by, also looking at the children below with anticipation.

The Pope personally awakening their martial souls—what an honor that was!

What was so special about these children that they were treated so uniquely by His Holiness the Pope?

One had to know that a girl named Hu Liena, who had innate soul power of level nine, did not receive this kind of treatment before.

Among the many elders, the figure of Bibi Dong stood prominently in the front row. As the former Saintess, she lacked neither talent nor ability. Over these six years, her capabilities had been extremely outstanding, and with many contributions, she had quickly become a deacon of Martial Soul Hall.

Hu Liena, who possessed innate soul power of level nine, should have been a student of an elder, but because the two were extremely compatible, she had taken the initiative to apprentice, and Bibi Dong had accepted her as a disciple.

Qian Xunji was now filled with the joy of a bountiful harvest. Having waited for so long, he had finally raised these little brats. Even now, Qian Xunji felt a sense of dread when he recalled the ear-piercing baby cries that had once filled the Pope Palace. Now that he was awakening these children's martial souls, he could simultaneously acquire these top-tier martial souls for himself.

Thinking this, the smile on Qian Xunji's face became even more sacred.

The ceremony officially began, and a humanoid martial soul radiating golden light, the Six-Winged Angel, appeared behind Qian Xunji.

The pressure belonging to a top-tier martial soul caused some elders to feel the suppression between martial souls, but the holy light shining upon them made people feel physically and mentally delighted, leaving everyone feeling warm and extremely comfortable.

However, soul masters with dark-attribute martial souls felt somewhat uncomfortable; this was precisely the case for Bibi Dong. Her Soul-Eater Spider Emperor and Death Spider Emperor martial souls were both dark-attribute, naturally repelling the light-attribute Six-Winged Angel martial soul.

"Xiang Yu, you go first!" Qian Xunji said helplessly, looking at Xiang Yu, who was the most lively and impatient.

Hearing this, the boy with bright golden hair and a sturdy build immediately walked up and stood before Qian Xunji.

The moment he stood there, dense specks of light emerged, rushing into Xiang Yu's body as if competing to be first.

Xiang Yu's own golden hair was already quite brilliant and dazzling, but now, wrapped in a swarm of light specks, he looked even more like a little light-being.

When all the light specks vanished, the crowd could finally see the situation within the awakening array. They saw that in the golden-haired boy's palm, a familiar martial soul had emerged: golden wings, holy light, and a beautiful countenance, but...

The gender seemed to be a bit off.

A male Six-Winged Angel martial soul?

The crowd wore strange expressions. Was it a mutated martial soul?

Moreover, both were Six-Winged Angels, both had golden hair; could this child be...

Thinking this, the crowd's gazes darted back and forth between Qian Xunji and Xiang Yu.

Qian Xunji took a deep breath, enduring the strange gazes of the crowd. He had long anticipated this; after all, the Six-Winged Angel martial soul was too iconic, and since Qian Daoliu only had him as a child, it was hard not to be suspected!

Qian Xunji could already imagine what kind of looks these elders would give him after Qian Renxue awakened her martial soul.

The Pope, who had been single for so many years, suddenly popped out two illegitimate children—a son and a daughter—possessing the Six-Winged Angel martial soul, instantly having both a son and a daughter. So, who was the mother of these two children?

Gossip was human nature, and even Title Douluo were no exception!

"Very good, your martial soul is the Six-Winged Angel. Now, place your hand on the crystal ball," Qian Xunji said, ignoring those strange looks and reminding Xiang Yu.

Xiang Yu had already retracted his martial soul. Hearing this, he obediently placed his palm on the crystal ball. Immediately, the light flared brilliantly, filling the entire crystal ball. Even after it was full, the light continued to intensify, and the crystal ball began to vibrate, as if it were unable to bear the burden.

Qian Xunji, having prepared in advance, took out another, higher-grade crystal ball.

"Try again."

This time, the light was still brilliant, but it just happened to fill the crystal ball perfectly.

Qian Xunji nodded with satisfaction, "Innate soul power level 20!"

Around them, some elders who already knew the uniqueness of the Six-Winged Angel martial soul, while having expected it, still couldn't help but marvel at the wonder and power of the Six-Winged Angel martial soul.

As for the younger Bibi Dong, this was her first time learning the secrets of the Six-Winged Angel martial soul. After all, it concerned the Six-Winged Angel martial soul passed down by the Angel God, which was a secret among secrets within Martial Soul Hall. Aside from the Pope and some high-ranking elders, others were not qualified to know.

Previously, when Bibi Dong was the Saintess of Martial Soul Hall, she had not delved into it because she deeply loathed the light-attribute Six-Winged Angel martial soul.

Being born with level 20 soul power was a realm that some ordinary soul masters could never reach in their entire lives. It saved so much time on arduous cultivation, allowing one to directly acquire their first and second soul rings.

Even Bibi Dong, who considered herself a genius, had to admit the power of the Six-Winged Angel martial soul. One step ahead meant every step ahead. Before the age of thirty was the golden stage for a soul master's cultivation; the effects of training during this period were far superior to those after thirty. If one could save the time required to cultivate ten levels of soul power before thirty, the benefits to a soul master were immense.

Just like Bibi Dong now, having passed the age of thirty, her cultivation speed had dropped significantly compared to before.

The next to step up for the martial soul awakening was Arthur.

As his martial soul awakened, he was surrounded by golden light specks, and a little light-being, whose figure was slightly different from the one during Xiang Yu's awakening, appeared once again.

The momentum was no less than Xiang Yu's. The surrounding elders looked at this familiar scene, recalled Arthur's golden hair, and then glanced at the line of golden-haired children below, thinking of Qian Xunji's golden hair, their expressions turning strange.

Could it be that all these children were the Pope's children?

Thinking of this possibility, this elder immediately connected everything together. It made sense; because they were the Pope's children, they had been adopted by the Pope and raised in the Pope Palace since childhood, and were even awakened by the Pope himself.

As they thought about it, the way this elder looked at the four children changed completely.
