Chapter 9

However, in the very next moment, a dazzling light erupted from the crystal ball, illuminating the entire room in the blink of an eye.

A smile finally appeared on Old Jack's face, while Su Yuntao lowered his head in shock, staring in disbelief at the crystal ball that was bursting with brilliant blue light.

"In... innate full soul power!" He stammered in his shock.

"How is this possible?" he exclaimed again.

Finally, he pulled the crystal ball away and looked at Tang San, his expression complex.

"Innate full soul power, what a pity it's wasted." Su Yuntao was heartbroken; if only Tang San's martial soul weren't Blue Silver Grass, how wonderful that would be.

Tang San, however, latched onto the new term "innate full soul power" and hurriedly asked about it.

Perhaps out of sympathy for Tang San, Su Yuntao became patient and explained some knowledge about spirit masters to him.

By the end, Su Yuntao shook his head repeatedly, "It's truly a pity. Innate full soul power is a genius seen once in a century, but unfortunately, you ended up with such a trash martial soul; otherwise, I could have..."

Tang San was not discouraged by Su Yuntao's words; he stood to the side, curiously watching the remaining Jiang Chen.

If there was anyone he considered the most mysterious, it was undoubtedly Jiang Chen.

Although more than a year had passed, he still felt lingering fear regarding Jiang Chen's cold, sinister aura, and the memory remained fresh in his mind. If only a sliver of that cold aura hadn't seeped into his body back then, he likely would have suffered a miserable fate.

As a disciple of the Tang Sect in his past life, he was most knowledgeable about poisons, yet he could not determine what kind of poison was contained within Jiang Chen's aura.

That poison was simply too overbearing; a mere sliver had nearly exhausted his Mysterious Heaven Skill internal energy.

He had once suspected it was corpse poison, but he eventually dismissed the idea. Corpse poison belonged to the realm of legends in his past life, and he had never seen it himself.

Moreover, legend held that corpse poison existed in zombies, but based on his observations, Jiang Chen didn't resemble a legendary zombie in the slightest.

Jiang Chen's mystery had long since led Tang San to regard him as someone on his own level, or perhaps even more dangerous.

He was very curious: what kind of martial soul would Jiang Chen awaken? Would it be a trash martial soul like his own?

Without needing Su Yuntao's instruction, Jiang Chen had already stepped into the awakening array.

Seeing Jiang Chen's serious expression, Su Yuntao, who had been growing impatient, also became serious; it was his duty to finish awakening all the children.

"Close your eyes and feel it carefully."

Jiang Chen obediently closed his eyes and began to sense.

Su Yuntao activated the array, and the moment he did, a massive amount of golden light particles surged out, dense and packed, nearly filling the entire light barrier.

"This..." Su Yuntao was greatly alarmed, his eyes suddenly brightening and emitting a faint green glow.

He had never seen anyone trigger so many light particles during an awakening; this was highly abnormal.

The golden light particles grew more and more numerous, appearing far faster than Jiang Chen could absorb them. In the blink of an eye, the entire wooden house had turned golden and blindingly bright.

Yet, no one closed their eyes; they endured the discomfort, watching Jiang Chen standing within the array.

Old Jack and Su Yuntao's eyes were particularly bright, their excitement impossible to hide. With such a grand display, perhaps an unprecedented and powerful martial soul was about to appear.

"Don't stop, feel it with your heart!" Su Yuntao shouted.

More and more light particles appeared, and the time elapsed had already far exceeded that of everyone else's awakening, yet the particles continued to surge forth endlessly, and there was still no sign of a martial soul manifesting on Jiang Chen.
