Leng Yaozhu

Meanwhile, Wang Chuan was led by the Spirit Transmitter in charge of the awakening to another room within the Spirit Pagoda Branch, one filled with a sense of modern technology.

This place was completely different from the ancient Awakening Room. The walls were spotless white, and several precision Soul Guidance instruments of varying designs stood around the room. Their indicator lights flickered faintly as they emitted a low operational hum.

"Next, we'll test your Mental Power."

The Spirit Transmitter gestured for Wang Chuan to sit in a metal chair with armrests and a backrest in the center of the room.

His tone was kinder than before, even carrying a trace of barely perceptible anticipation.

Wang Chuan sat down and nodded.

"Alright."

He understood immediately.

Generally speaking, Mental Power only needed to be tested when someone intended to purchase a Soul Spirit, so that they could be matched with an appropriate Soul Spirit age.

But he had just awakened with Innate Full Soul Power, and the Spirit Pagoda was already eager to test his Mental Power.

Their intentions were self-evident.

They had probably taken notice of his talent and wanted to conduct a full assessment in preparation for recruiting him.

That was perfectly normal. Talents were scarce resources anywhere, much less someone like him, a "high-quality prospect" from an ordinary family with a clean background.

To an organization like the Spirit Pagoda, which was eager to take in fresh blood, his appeal was undoubtedly enormous.

Wang Chuan had no objection to joining the Spirit Pagoda.

The benefits were obvious.

Cultivation subsidies, preferential access to resources, a systematic training program...

Those things could make his early development much easier.

More importantly, joining the Spirit Pagoda was genuinely safe!

Because from the beginning to the end of the original story, the Spirit Pagoda on the Douluo Continent side had basically never been purged.

Without question, it was the safest place.

"Don't be nervous. Relax your whole body."

The Spirit Transmitter's voice interrupted Wang Chuan's thoughts.

A helmet-like device connected by metal arms slowly descended from above the chair and settled securely over Wang Chuan's head.

"You may feel a slight dizziness shortly. That's normal. Stay relaxed and don't resist."

"Mm."

Wang Chuan responded.

A faint hum sounded from inside the helmet, followed by a soft white glow lighting up around it.

The Spirit Transmitter quickly walked to the side, his gaze fixed on a Soul Guidance display embedded in the wall.

On the screen, the data representing Mental Power began to jump rapidly.

The initial value rose at an astonishing pace. In almost an instant, it broke past the average for ordinary children undergoing awakening and continued surging upward without pause.

The Spirit Transmitter's breathing gradually grew heavier, and his eyes widened more and more.

The rate of increase began to slow, but the value continued climbing steadily.

In the end, it stabilized around a staggering number, fluctuating slightly within that range.

A moment later, the Spirit Transmitter shut off the instrument.

The helmet rose, leaving Wang Chuan's head.

He turned around, his face filled with incredulous shock. His burning gaze fixed on Wang Chuan as he stood from the chair, and even his voice trembled.

"Mental Power... ninety-nine points!"

"Spirit Origin Realm Pinnacle!"

"You little monster, you're practically a freak!"

He had presided over awakenings and tests for so many years.

Let alone seeing it, he had never even heard of anyone who, upon just awakening their Martial Soul...

Could possess such an appalling ninety-nine points of Mental Power, directly touching the peak of the Spirit Origin Realm!

This had already surpassed the category of "genius"!

He was a monster!

Thinking that he had personally tested such a peerless genius, the Spirit Transmitter was so excited that his hands trembled faintly.

On the top floor of the Spirit Pagoda Branch in Aolai City, inside an elegantly furnished office with a broad view.

A graceful woman stood quietly before the floor-to-ceiling windows, her cool temperament carrying a trace of natural allure.

Her skin was smooth as jade, her fiery red hair cascaded down her back like a waterfall, and her features were exquisitely beautiful. Yet an undeniable majesty rested between her brows.

At that moment, she held a report that had just been transmitted from the testing room downstairs.

A clear trace of shock flashed through her ruby-like eyes.

"Phoenix Martial Soul, Innate Full Soul Power, ninety-nine points of Mental Power... Spirit Origin Realm Pinnacle..."

She murmured softly.

"This talent..."

"He's simply a monster among monsters!"

As the vice tower master of the Spirit Pagoda Headquarters, the Title Douluo known as Heavenly Phoenix, and a level ninety-eight Super Douluo, Leng Yaozhu had seen countless geniuses.

Top-tier Martial Souls and Innate Full Soul Power were rare.

But among such an enormous population, a few cases would always appear every few years.

Yet someone like Wang Chuan, who had Mental Power close to the threshold of the Spirit Connection Realm immediately after awakening, was absolutely unprecedented!

This meant that not only was his Soul Power aptitude extraordinary, but his spiritual talent was equally terrifying!

In the future, he might possess unrivaled potential in many fields, including control, perception, and even Battle Armor crafting.

She had personally come from the headquarters to Aolai City this time.

After seeing the preliminary report, she had already entertained the thought of taking him as her disciple.

Now that she had seen this astonishing Mental Power data, that thought became incomparably strong and certain.

Just as outstanding students yearned for the guidance of famous teachers, as a powerhouse standing at the pinnacle of the Soul Master world...

How could she not yearn to meet an extraordinary disciple worthy of inheriting her legacy, perhaps even surpassing her?

Leng Yaozhu knew very well that with the talent Wang Chuan had displayed, even Shrek Academy, known as the continent's number one academy, would open its doors without hesitation and treasure him like a priceless gem.

No longer hesitating, Leng Yaozhu turned and left the top-floor office. She took the Soul Guidance Elevator directly to the reception room where Wang Zhe and Luo Ya were waiting.

When the door to the reception room was pushed open again, Leng Yaozhu's distinctive and powerful presence instantly filled the space.

Wang Zhe and Luo Ya rose to their feet instinctively. Looking at the red-haired woman before them, whose beauty was unparalleled and whose temperament was extraordinary, they were momentarily at a loss.

Although she did not deliberately release her pressure, the invisible aura of someone long accustomed to high status, combined with that of a peak powerhouse, still made this ordinary couple feel intense oppression.

Leng Yaozhu revealed the gentlest smile she could manage and spoke first, her voice clear and melodious.

"You two are Wang Chuan's parents, correct?"

"There's no need to be nervous. Please, sit."

She herself gracefully took a seat on the sofa opposite them.

Wang Zhe nervously swallowed and pulled his wife back down beside him, his back held ramrod straight.

"Let me introduce myself first."

Leng Yaozhu got straight to the point, her tone calm.

"My name is Leng Yaozhu. I am from the Spirit Pagoda Headquarters on the Douluo Continent, currently serving as vice tower master. My title is Heavenly Phoenix, and my Soul Power is level ninety-eight."

"Boom!"

It was as if thunder had exploded in their minds.

Wang Zhe and Luo Ya froze completely.

Their minds went blank at once.

Vice tower master!

Title Douluo!

Level ninety-eight!

Every one of those terms weighed as heavily as a mountain.

They were existences the couple could only look up to in the news in their daily lives!

And now, such a great figure was sitting alive and well right before them!
