Sun Moon Empire, Coastal City.

This is a small city along the coast of the Sun Moon Empire, so small that it is almost comparable to a town.

Today is the day the Sun Moon Empire provides free Martial Soul awakening for children of the appropriate age.

Inside the Awakening Hall of Coastal City.

In the main hall, a line of about twenty or thirty teenagers, both boys and girls, stood waiting.

There was no helping it; the city was too small, and there were never many children of age each year.

At the end of the line was a young boy.

With blue hair and blue eyes, his clothes were not expensive, but they were clean and neat.

Even though he was a boy, the word beautiful could be used to describe him.

At only six years old, one could already see the handsomeness in his youthful face.

"Little Chen, don't be nervous later. Uncle Zhang believes in you!"

Beside him, a burly middle-aged man was encouraging him in a boisterous manner.

"Don't worry, Uncle Zhang, I won't embarrass you!"

The boy's name is Mu Chen. Counting today, he has been transmigrated to the Douluo Continent for six years.

He is an orphan who has had no parents since he was young; it was this Uncle Zhang beside him who picked him up and raised him together with the neighbors.

Uncle Zhang is named Zhang Tao, and he runs a steamed bun shop.

Although his own conditions were not great, he never let Mu Chen go hungry.

With Zhang Tao's upbringing and the help of the surrounding shop owners, Mu Chen had grown up happily until now.

After six years of transmigration, he was finally going to possess his own Martial Soul.

Awakening twenty or thirty children was actually not slow, and soon it was Mu Chen's turn.

The awakening situation in Coastal City this year was not optimistic; among the children before Mu Chen, the number who awakened Soul Power did not exceed the fingers on one hand.

Furthermore, among those children who awakened Innate Soul Power, only one had an Innate Soul Power exceeding level five.

"Next."

The Soul Master in charge of the awakening said mechanically.

Under Zhang Tao's encouraging gaze, Mu Chen stepped forward.

He stood inside the already prepared awakening array.

Under Mu Chen's expectant gaze, the Soul Master in charge of the awakening extended his right hand, hovering it above Mu Chen's head.

Mu Chen closed his eyes, feeling only a warm current pouring into his body from the crown of his head, wandering through his limbs and bones.

Is this Soul Power?

Mu Chen felt it carefully, sensing the sensation of this Soul Power flowing through his meridians.

Those warm currents eventually gathered at his Dantian, where Mu Chen's dormant Martial Soul, about to be awakened, resided.

Following the constant impact of the warm current, the shackles there were also constantly loosening.

Accompanied by a strange feeling, two different energies appeared within Mu Chen's body.

That's right, two completely different energies.

Mu Chen was overjoyed; wouldn't this situation mean he has Twin Martial Souls?

Everyone present except for Zhang Tao were strangers, so Mu Chen would certainly not choose to expose his Twin Martial Souls.

He took the lead in releasing the power that made him feel particularly close.

Following Mu Chen's guidance, a burst of energy instantly erupted from his body.

The first thing to appear was the sound of rolling ocean waves.

A wind carrying a salty, fishy scent blew slowly.

Mu Chen's body was wrapped in water vapor, and a phantom of the ocean appeared behind him.

As a child who grew up by the sea, the aura of the ocean made Mu Chen feel extremely close to it.

Just when he thought the Martial Soul awakening was complete, an anomaly appeared at his left hand.

A blue light flashed on Mu Chen's left hand, and a blue trident appeared in his grasp.

Mu Chen looked at this trident, feeling somewhat dazed.

He did not know where this trident came from, but he could feel that this trident was one with him.

In this way, this trident could be counted as an accompanying weapon to his Ocean Martial Soul.

Seeing Mu Chen's Martial Soul, the Soul Master in charge of the awakening finally had a hint of interest in his eyes, especially when he saw the trident held in Mu Chen's left hand.

"Little friend, what is your Martial Soul? Is it this trident in your hand?" The Soul Master in charge of the awakening was very curious; he had never seen such a Martial Soul before—did it even come with its own ocean special effects?

Mu Chen shook his head: "No, Uncle. My Martial Soul is the ocean; this trident can be considered an accompanying weapon."

The soul master's eyes lit up instantly upon hearing this. It was his first time seeing a martial soul with an accompanying weapon; such a martial soul was bound to be extraordinary.

He took out a cerulean crystal ball and handed it to Mu Chen. "Come on, little friend, test your Innate Soul Power."

Mu Chen raised his right hand and placed it on the crystal ball.

"Hum."

As if struck by a violent impact, the crystal ball vibrated for a moment.

Then, a blue light began to rapidly fill the crystal ball.

In the end, the light filled the entire crystal ball.

"Innate Full Soul Power!"

The soul master responsible for the awakening exclaimed in shock.

He knew exactly what kind of talent Innate Full Soul Power represented.

"Little friend, congratulations! With Innate Full Soul Power, if you cultivate hard, the country will nurture you!"

The soul master did not say anything to try and recruit him, as he belonged to the Sun Moon Empire.

"Thank you, Uncle, I will work hard!"

After simply registering Mu Chen's information, the soul master left with a beaming face.

Awakening someone with Innate Full Soul Power meant a promotion and a raise were just around the corner.

Mu Chen was also overjoyed. He had once hoped he would be lucky enough to awaken a martial soul with soul power, but he never expected to awaken Twin Martial Souls, let alone with Innate Full Soul Power.

Returning to the bun shop, Zhang Tao had prepared a table full of delicious dishes they usually couldn't afford to eat.

"Little Chen, Uncle Zhang is truly happy for you!"

As he spoke, Zhang Tao took a large gulp of wine.

His tone was choked with emotion, as if his own child had awakened Innate Full Soul Power.

In truth, Zhang Tao had no children; his beloved wife had passed away long ago, and he had never sought another.

Now, he truly regarded Mu Chen as his own son.

"Alright, Uncle Zhang, don't get so sentimental. It's a good thing my martial soul is strong. Once I become powerful, I'll come back to honor you and help you open your bun shop in the Ming Capital!"

"Hahaha, good! Uncle Zhang will wait for that day!"

The two enjoyed a wonderful meal, laughing and chatting.

After dinner, Mu Chen returned to his room.

He was now very curious about what his second martial soul would be.

Closing the doors and windows, he tried to circulate his soul power, drawing upon the other force within his body.

As his soul power surged, an aura filled with killing intent erupted from Mu Chen's body.

His appearance underwent a transformation.

His short cerulean hair turned white, and his blue eyes shifted into an eerie blood-red.

His originally handsome face became cold and stern.

Behind Mu Chen stood a blood-red figure.

It had eight arms and a ferocious visage, appearing like an Asura returned from hell.

The moment this martial soul was released, Mu Chen's entire temperament changed.

The killing intent surrounding him was nearly tangible, as if Mu Chen had just returned from a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
