The phoenix soared from the flames. After a clear, resounding cry, it burned the entire space with ultimate fire.
Lina transformed into a massive Dark Bell and floated in midair. As the Dark Bell swayed, wave after wave of dark energy struck the enormous phoenix in the form of soundwaves.
Both of them unleashed immensely powerful energy, causing the space itself to tremble violently during their battle.
Fortunately, this was an independent space rather than the Soul Guidance Train. Otherwise, no matter how strong the train's defenses were, they would have been torn apart by this terrifying energy in an instant.
The battle in the sky grew increasingly fierce. Yet in the end, the phoenix defeated the darkness. The massive Dark Bell shattered, and that breathtaking figure stood in midair, looking down at the girl below with the bearing of a victor.
"You lost."
Leng Yaozhu spoke calmly as she looked down at the pale-faced Lina below.
Lina froze for a moment, her gaze somewhat vacant as she looked at her body, scorched by blazing flames. Even now, flames still burned across her body—the powerful fire damage inflicted by Leng Yaozhu.
She had never imagined that, within the illusion space she had created, she would actually be no match for Leng Yaozhu. How was that possible?!
In truth, as a member of a race born from darkness, she was naturally greatly suppressed by the Heavenly Fire within Leng Yaozhu.
After such an intense battle, she knew that in a direct confrontation, she truly was no match for Sky Phoenix Douluo Leng Yaozhu. However, it would be equally impossible for Leng Yaozhu to keep her here.
"Leng Yaozhu, you got me this time. I believe we'll have another chance to meet!"
Leaving her grudge with Leng Yaozhu for another day, Lina gave the imposing Leng Yaozhu in midair a cold glance, tore through the space, and vanished completely.
Before leaving, Lina gave Mu Tianchen's direction a long look. Sensing her gaze, Mu Tianchen shuddered all over. Wait, had he been marked?
Boom—seeing that Lina had left, Leng Yaozhu descended from the sky as well.
She came to Mu Tianchen's side and frowned. Without saying anything, she directly pressed a finger against his forehead.
In an instant, a holy and powerful energy spread through every limb and bone in Mu Tianchen's body.
Mu Tianchen was instantly stunned. Was this his teacher's Soul Power? Not only did it possess tremendous destructive force, but it could also nourish the body?
Then, under the impact of that energy, Mu Tianchen immediately felt something within him shatter. The faint sense of dread around him also disappeared.
Mu Tianchen clicked his tongue in amazement.
Such ability truly befitted a level ninety-eight Super Douluo, a peak expert of the Douluo Continent with the Heavenly Phoenix Martial Soul.
Leng Yaozhu looked at Mu Tianchen expressionlessly and said, "That person just left a mark on you. If the mark remained on your body, she could find you at any time."
"I've already erased that mark for you. From now on, unless she personally comes to the Spirit Pagoda Headquarters, there is no way she can find you."
"Oh, Teacher, thank you."
Mu Tianchen quickly came to his senses and immediately thanked Leng Yaozhu.
This was the first time he had seen Leng Yaozhu fight. That world-destroying sensation had truly shocked him. Was this the power of a Super Douluo on the Douluo Continent? It was truly terrifying.
Leng Yaozhu frowned as she looked at Mu Tianchen. "Your Soul Power is far too weak. Being able to remain calm to a certain extent before someone so powerful is already quite impressive."
"Next, you must do everything you can to improve your cultivation. With your Holy Dragon of Light and Innate Full Soul Power, along with the support of my Spirit Pagoda, your level will rise quickly."
"If all goes well, in twenty years, you will possess power no weaker than that person's."
As she spoke, Leng Yaozhu prepared to leave this space. However, she seemed to recall something and suddenly paused.
She turned around to look at Mu Tianchen, a faint smile on her face. "Oh, I forgot to tell you. Your Innate Soul Power isn't level ten. It's level twenty."
"As long as you obtain a yellow hundred-year Soul Spirit or a purple thousand-year Soul Spirit, you can instantly become a two-ring Soul Grandmaster."
"Tsk, tsk. A two-ring Soul Grandmaster at only six years old—even I couldn't achieve that back then."
"However, I must warn you that with your current physique and spiritual power, you still cannot fully bear a high-level hundred-year Soul Spirit, much less a thousand-year Soul Spirit."
"Work hard. Strengthen your physique and spiritual power. Don't waste the talent you possess."
After saying that, Leng Yaozhu ignored Mu Tianchen. Her figure shot straight into the air and then vanished completely.
Leng Yaozhu moved as fast as lightning, giving no one time to react. When she disappeared, a huge Fire Phoenix flew alongside her, displaying her powerful aura without restraint.
Watching Leng Yaozhu leave, Mu Tianchen was completely dumbfounded.
"Hey! Teacher, you haven't taken me out yet!"
Seeing Leng Yaozhu leave, Mu Tianchen was shocked.
What was going on? Why had his teacher not taken him out? He had no idea how to leave this space on his own.
Looking at the empty space, Mu Tianchen dropped onto the ground and sighed. It seemed his teacher had truly left and had no intention of taking him with her.
Looking at this dark space, Mu Tianchen began considering how to get out.
At the same time, Mu Tianchen recalled what his teacher Leng Yaozhu had just said. She had told him that his Innate Soul Power was not level ten, but level twenty!
Innate Level 20 Soul Power?
Mu Tianchen drew a sharp breath.
Although he could sense that his body indeed contained a powerful light-attributed energy, he had never imagined that this energy could bring him to the level of Innate Level 20 Soul Power.
Among all those who had awakened the Holy Dragon of Light Martial Soul, had anyone possessed Innate Level 20 Soul Power? No!
Over the Douluo Continent's twenty-thousand-year history, not a single Holy Dragon of Light awakener had possessed Innate Level 20 Soul Power. He was the first in twenty thousand years.
"Could it be that my Holy Dragon of Light Martial Soul is also a God-Bestowed Martial Soul?"
Mu Tianchen could not help but speculate inwardly.
Based on what he knew of the Douluo Continent, only the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul was a God-Bestowed Martial Soul and capable of granting Innate Level 20 Soul Power!
He could not help wondering whether it was because his Holy Dragon of Light was special.
He could also sense that his Holy Dragon of Light differed from ordinary Holy Dragons of Light. His was simply too powerful. Not only did its dragon soul automatically protect his body, but it could also greatly strengthen his physique.
Could an ordinary Holy Dragon of Light Martial Soul possess such effects?
Mu Tianchen did not know what had given him Innate Level 20 Soul Power.
However, this was undoubtedly tremendous news. Innate Level 20 Soul Power would save him a great deal of cultivation time.
The surroundings were pitch-black, and a lonely aura filled the entire space. As he looked around, the darkness instead calmed Mu Tianchen's restless heart.
Mu Tianchen closed his eyes and used his heart to sense this dark space.
At some unknown point, the Holy Dragon of Light Martial Soul automatically merged into his body, becoming one with him. A layer of platinum light covered every corner of his body.
He seemed to be bathed in holy light. From head to toe, he radiated a holy, luminous aura.
The aura was warm, making people instinctively want to draw closer.
Time passed bit by bit. The light aura around him grew richer, and his presence gradually became stronger.
Then, his body became like a volcano slowly gathering magma, waiting until it reached its limit before erupting like thunder.
Boom—
No one knew how long had passed before the light energy within him finally condensed to its peak.
An incomparably powerful light aura burst forth like brilliant sparks. A platinum giant dragon, as unfathomable and imposing as a prison, rapidly emerged from his body, its holy light illuminating the world.
Roar—the holy dragon raised its head and let out a dragon's cry. A roar that shook with heavenly might, like rolling thunder, shattered this space.
The space broke apart, and Mu Tianchen's body vanished immediately afterward.
However, just as Mu Tianchen left this place, the dark energy within him, which had been quiet for days, began to stir once more.
On the Soul Guidance Train, Mu Tianchen suddenly opened his eyes. Breathing in the fresh air, he felt as though he had come back to life.
"Awake?"
At that moment, Leng Yaozhu, who was sitting beside him, glanced at him.
"Ah?"
Mu Tianchen jumped at the sudden greeting. He stared at Leng Yaozhu in shock. At some point, his teacher Leng Yaozhu had appeared beside him.
Hadn't he just been in the restroom? How had he suddenly returned to his seat?
Looking to the side, he discovered that he was sitting in his seat on the Soul Guidance Train.
It was the same seat he had occupied before, and the train carriage was perfectly calm, without anything unusual.
However, when he looked at his wet crotch, his face instantly turned crimson.
From a distance, his pants looked as though they had been soaked with water, like he had wet himself. This discovery left Mu Tianchen utterly petrified.
"Teacher, this... I..."
Mu Tianchen glanced to the side, and Leng Yaozhu was looking at him as well.
At that moment, Mu Tianchen had no idea how he could explain this to Teacher Leng Yaozhu. He could not possibly say, "Sorry, Teacher, I accidentally wet myself," could he?
How could that possibly work?!
Although he was only a six-year-old child now, his soul belonged to an adult in his twenties. How could he possibly fail to control himself?
Yet Leng Yaozhu's expression did not change at all upon seeing this. She simply said, "You're a child. It's understandable."
Mu Tianchen felt like crying without tears. His lifetime reputation was ruined!!
Just as Mu Tianchen was wallowing in despair, an almost imperceptible smile appeared on Leng Yaozhu's face.
Of course, she knew why Mu Tianchen's crotch was wet.
Just moments ago, a mother and child in the seats beside her had needed help. The mother had urgently needed to use the restroom, but she was worried that no one would look after her child, so she could only ask Leng Yaozhu to help.
Leng Yaozhu had not wanted to take care of the child either. Although she was already over a hundred years old, she had never had experience holding a child.
However, the young mother's attitude had been so earnest that Leng Yaozhu had no choice but to watch the child for a while.
What she had not expected was that the child could not hold back the urge to urinate and actually peed toward her. She instantly panicked. In all her life, she had never encountered such a situation.
In the emergency, she immediately used the Soul Power of a level ninety-eight Super Douluo to control the child's urine and direct it off to the side.
Yet by a bizarre coincidence, it fell directly onto Mu Tianchen's crotch, resulting in the scene from just now.
Mu Tianchen wore a miserable expression as he said, "Teacher, you have to believe me. I really didn't pee! I don't know what happened either!"
However, upon hearing this, Leng Yaozhu gave a cold snort and shouted, "Shut up! So what if you accidentally wet yourself once? What's so embarrassing about it? A real man should bravely face everything."
"Mu Tianchen, you broke through the illusion rather quickly this time. You did better than many people your age. After we return, you can undergo more tests like this. They will benefit you."
Hearing that, Mu Tianchen let out a helpless sigh. This was too hard.
