And just as he had expected, under his gaze, Le Zhengyue blinked.
Then, without hiding anything, he stated what he needed.
"Grandpa, actually, I awakened Twin Martial Souls. My Second Martial Soul is the Human Emperor Banner, which represents justice."
"This Martial Soul is very powerful, but it also needs its Soul Ring years raised."
"Grandpa, you know just how powerful my Dragon-type Martial Soul is. With it, my body can withstand a Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring."
"So right now, I need the Spirit Ascension Platform."
Le Zhengyue felt a little awkward as he spoke. After thinking it over, he raised his hand and summoned what he called the Human Emperor Banner.
Only this time, there was no black mist around the banner. Instead, it was filled with a brilliant purple aura.
As purple qi came from the east, Le Zheng'en looked at the Human Emperor Banner, which brimmed with majestic heavenly might, and blinked.
A trace of hesitation showed in his eyes.
He had actually heard that his grandson had a Second Martial Soul. After all, the Angel Guard was ultimately loyal to him.
Keeping track of his grandson's movements—or, rather, learning about them from the two guards—wasn't difficult.
However, according to what he knew, his grandson's Second Martial Soul should have been an evil-type Martial Soul. He simply hadn't cared much about it.
The Dragon God Martial Soul alone had such powerful suppressive abilities that he was already certain Le Zhengyue would become the next head of their family.
The Angel Family's name was certainly important, but he had never encountered a Martial Soul as terrifyingly powerful—or downright heaven-defying—as this one.
He firmly believed that with his little grandson around, the Yue Family would never decline. It would only grow stronger.
That was why he doted on Le Zhengyue so much, to the point of spoiling him.
They had spent the most time together, and his little grandson clung to him most, but that didn't mean he would indulge him without limit.
The reason he treated him this way was his little grandson's talent: Innate Level 20 Soul Power, along with overwhelming strength.
Under the circumstances, it was only natural that he'd give his little grandson special care.
So when he heard what Le Zhengyue said and saw the Martial Soul radiating majestic heavenly might, Le Zheng'en didn't even stop to consider whether it was a righteous or an evil Martial Soul.
After all, it didn't really matter to him. As long as it wasn't a Fallen Angel, he could accept it.
"Give me three days. I'll get in touch with the Spirit Pagoda.
"Then the Spirit Ascension Platform will arrange a private room and an individual hibernation pod for you. No one will monitor you, and absolutely no one will disturb you.
"I'll have someone bring you the key. Will that do?
"Anything else, kid?"
Le Zheng'en spoke casually.
For other people, this was something that called for careful consideration, and there was no guarantee it could be done. After all, they were dealing with the Spirit Pagoda, one of the four great organizations.
But for Le Zheng'en, getting a spot for someone at the Spirit Ascension Platform was almost effortless, especially in Angel City.
All he needed to do was give the Spirit Pagoda a word, and they would grant him this favor.
After all, few people would offend a powerful Limit Douluo over such a trivial matter.
Hearing his grandfather's reply, Le Zhengyue shook his head.
Then he smiled, said goodbye to his grandfather, and ran off.
Leaving his grandfather's study, Le Zhengyue reached the first floor of the house and yawned.
This matter was nothing to him. Or rather, he didn't care that much about it.
After all, arranging things with the Spirit Pagoda was no great difficulty.
And judging by his age, he'd most likely have to wait another three or four years before he could attend Shrek Academy.
Even if he went early, he'd still have to wait at least two or three years.
The time ahead seemed a little dull, so Le Zhengyue wasn't planning to keep waiting around here.
Besides going to the Spirit Pagoda to improve his strength, he also planned to explore the third continent—or, rather, scout out a few things in advance.
Of course, before that, Le Zhengyue had to solve one problem: Tang Wulin would always be one level above him.
This problem didn't really matter to Le Zhengyue. As long as his Dragon God Bloodline was strong enough, the Dragon God Martial Soul's absolute suppression of the Golden Dragon King Martial Soul would keep Tang Wulin from making much trouble.
Even if Tang Wulin was ten levels above him instead of one, Le Zhengyue wouldn't care that much.
The problem now was that Tang Wulin also had luck on his side.
Tang Wulin's biggest weakness had once been his cultivation speed. Now that his cultivation speed had picked up, even if Le Zhengyue's Dragon God Martial Soul could forcibly suppress the Golden Dragon King Martial Soul, something could still go wrong.
Le Zhengyue wouldn't allow that—or rather, he didn't want it to happen.
The way to solve this was actually quite simple: find a loophole, or exploit a gap.
"This would've been hard to solve before. But if his Soul Power is naturally one level higher than mine, then it has nothing to do with my Dragon Power."
As he spoke, Le Zhengyue raised his hand slightly.
His left hand was covered in nine-colored scales, each radiating the majesty and pressure of the Dragon God.
Once his bloodline level reached thirty, Le Zhengyue's Soul Power had gradually begun to turn into Dragon Power.
This not only meant that his Soul Power Level was constantly decreasing, but also that he now had what was called a Dragon Power Level.
Of course, he could still describe it in terms of a Soul Master's level. The two were essentially the same.
In fact, once his Soul Power had completely turned into Dragon Power, that alone would be enough to restrict Tang Wulin.
After all, without Dragon Power, no matter how high Tang Wulin's Soul Power Level became, he could only compare with Tang San or Huo Yuhao.
Neither of them would make much progress early on, especially Huo Yuhao. Even after he inherited Di Tian's legacy, his growth wouldn't be all that great.
He would naturally progress faster than an ordinary person, but not by much. He couldn't compare with Le Zhengyue at all.
But then there wouldn't be much fun in it.
Compared with Huo Yuhao's Tenfold Cashback System, which had previously given him Di Tian's legacy at ten times its strength,
and Tang San's Wife-Pampering System, which let him grow stronger quickly by treating Xiao Wu well,
Tang Wulin's system was the least useful—or, rather, the weakest. It only made him one level higher than someone else.
The ability seemed heaven-defying, but it depended on Le Zhengyue as its basis.
Without Le Zhengyue, Tang Wulin might as well have no powerful system at all.
In that case, Tang Wulin would be severely weakened, and it wouldn't be much fun anymore.
Thinking this, Le Zhengyue raised his hand, and the Human Emperor Banner began to take shape in his palm.
Streams of pure Soul Power appeared inside the Human Emperor Banner, then flowed into his reserve meridians.
As his power began to gather, his Dragon God Bloodline started circulating independently, drawing on a complete set of meridians to circulate Dragon Power.
The Human Emperor Banner completely took over the place originally occupied by Soul Power.
Gazing at his hands, Le Zhengyue remained calm.
As the Human Emperor Banner rose from his hand, two Hundred-Year Soul Rings appeared around him, followed by a slow surge of Soul Power at around level thirty.
Le Zhengyue's Soul Power system had been built using the power of his Dragon God Bloodline.
As far as the Human Emperor Banner was concerned, this complete Soul Power circulation system was irrelevant. Dragon Power could drive the banner too.
So this entire Soul Power system existed solely to trick Tang Wulin.
His Soul Power Level had already reached twenty-eight, but the Soul Power Level he infused into himself only reached twenty-four.
When he calmly opened the System Panel, Tang Wulin's level wasn't displayed, but the system that made him "always one level higher" still glimmered faintly.
That meant this method really did work.
And from this moment on, Tang Wulin's cultivation speed was effectively in Le Zhengyue's hands.
