Innate Full Soul Power

Lia stepped inside upon hearing this.

Zhao Yan let out a low roar, and a scorching aura rose from his body as three Soul Rings—two yellow and one purple—appeared.

He thrust out both palms, channeling fiery red Soul Power into the black stone and forming a red barrier around Lia.

The scorching aura instantly enveloped Lia.

She felt as though a faint spark had been lit within her body.

A yearning for warmth and light, originating from the depths of her soul, was infinitely amplified.

It was as though she had returned to those bone-chilling winter nights, curled up in a corner and trembling as she struck match after match...

She instinctively extended her right hand.

Sizzle!

A faint sound, like a match being struck, rang out.

What appeared in Lia's palm was not a match.

Instead, a flickering flame rose up. At its core, a tiny match made of pure fire element could vaguely be seen.

"A fire-element Martial Soul?"

Zhao Yan's eyes lit up. At last, one with some potential had arrived.

Though its form was a little strange, resembling a burning match, as long as it was fire-element, Blazing Fire Academy was interested.

Zhao Yan nodded and handed over a blue crystal orb. "Use your mind to put away your Martial Soul, then test your Soul Power."

With a thought, Lia withdrew her Martial Soul.

She then placed her hand on the crystal orb, which immediately emitted a brilliant blue glow.

"This is Innate Full Soul Power!"

Zhao Yan cried out in shock. He sprang to his feet, his eyes wide as bells as he stared fixedly at Lia.

Although Blazing Fire Academy was considered one of the top elemental academies in the Heaven Dou Empire, it had never recruited a genius with Innate Full Soul Power.

Perhaps geniuses with Innate Full Soul Power had always been exceedingly rare throughout the history of Douluo Continent. Virtually no academy had ever recruited one.

Innate Full Soul Power alone was already a tremendous surprise, let alone that this genius with Innate Full Soul Power possessed a fire-element Martial Soul.

For Blazing Fire Academy, this was simply a blessing fallen from the heavens!

Zhao Yan immediately reined in his fiery temper. A warm smile spread across his face, and even his voice softened considerably.

"Lia, right? Good child! Your talent is exceptional! I am Zhao Yan, a senior instructor of Blazing Fire Academy. I formally invite you to join Blazing Fire Academy. The academy will provide you with the best fire-element cultivation resources and the finest teachers! Your tuition will be fully waived, and you will receive a generous monthly living allowance! As long as you work hard, becoming a powerful fire-element Soul Master and making your name known across the continent will be within reach! So, are you willing to join Blazing Fire Academy?"

Zhao Yan finished in one breath and looked at Lia eagerly.

He believed that for an orphan with no one to rely on, Blazing Fire Academy's olive branch would be impossible to refuse.

Lia felt the warmth of the flame in her palm, then looked at the passionate instructor before her.

She thought of the cold winter nights from the fairy tale, of the kind old woman who had already passed away.

Then she remembered her purpose for coming to this new world. Determination flashed through her amber eyes as she bowed deeply to Zhao Yan.

"Thank you, Teacher Zhao! I am willing to join Blazing Fire Academy!"

"Good! Hahaha! Wonderful!" Zhao Yan was overjoyed, his hearty laughter echoing across the square. "From today onward, you are a core disciple of Blazing Fire Academy! Come! Follow your teacher back to the academy to register!"

With a broad wave of his hand, he left all the children waiting behind to the remaining teachers.

Then, amid the envious gazes of the crowd, he personally led Lia toward Blazing Fire Academy's grand gates, which resembled raging flames.

Heaven Dou Empire, Royal Martial Soul Awakening Hall.

As the only daughter of Xue Ye and Queen Eva, Snow White naturally received special treatment for her Martial Soul Awakening.

The one presiding over Snow White's ceremony was Xue Feng, an eighty-third-level royal Soul Douluo.

After respectfully bowing to Eva at the side, he extended a hand toward Snow White.

"Your Highness, please stand at the center of the formation."

Snow White released the maid's hand and steadily walked toward the six-pointed star formation.

Qian Renxue noticed that this child had never been as timid as other children. She always carried a composure beyond her years, which occasionally reminded Qian Renxue of the scene when she awakened her Martial Soul at Spirit Hall at the age of six.

The instant Snow White stepped into the six-pointed star formation, countless motes of light rose from the ground like fireflies and instantly surrounded her.

"Extend your right hand, child," Xue Feng guided her gently.

Within the formation, Snow White slowly raised her right hand. In an instant, the temperature throughout the hall plummeted.

In Snow White's palm appeared a Swan Martial Soul, entirely snow-white except for the icy blue glow on its forehead.

"This is... a Mutated Martial Soul?" Xue Feng frowned slightly.

The Imperial Family's Swan Martial Souls were usually an elegant milky white. Such a pure, snow-like form had never appeared before, much less that icy-blue crown.

This was clearly a Martial Soul Mutation, and Martial Soul Mutations had always been unpredictable. A good mutation could greatly increase a Martial Soul's power, while a bad mutation could reduce it to worthless trash.

However, judging from Snow White's Swan Martial Soul, which radiated waves of cold air, he guessed that it was likely a beneficial mutation.

Thus, Xue Feng asked, "Princess, do you know the name of this Martial Soul?"

"This is the Snow-Crested Swan." Snow White blinked her clear, wide eyes and spoke softly.

As if responding to her declaration, the Swan Martial Soul in her hand let out a clear cry, and tiny ice crystals instantly condensed in the air.

Upon hearing this, Xue Feng relaxed slightly.

At the very least, the name of this Martial Soul did not sound like an adverse mutation.

He nodded, then took out a Soul Power testing crystal orb. "Your Highness, please test your Innate Soul Power as well."

Snow White withdrew her Martial Soul and placed her palm on the crystal orb.

The crystal orb instantly shone brilliantly. The dazzling radiance was almost too bright to look at, and the orb itself even emitted a humming sound.

"This is Innate Full Soul Power!" Xue Feng stared at Snow White in utter shock.

Innate Full Soul Power, something seen only once in a century, had appeared within the Imperial Family. What did that mean?

It meant that Snow White was destined to become a Title Douluo in the future, and might even reach the realm of a Limit Douluo.

On the high platform, Xue Ye was so excited that he could barely remain standing. He laughed in delight. "Good! Good! At last, our Heaven Dou Imperial Family will produce a true powerhouse!"

At the side, Eva revealed a meaningful smile. Innate Full Soul Power?

No, this was Innate Level-20 Soul Power.

Across the entire continent, only Spirit Hall's Angel Lineage possessed Divine-Gifted Martial Souls and could be born with Level-20 Soul Power.

Naturally, no one else knew this secret, so they could only assume that Snow White possessed Innate Full Soul Power.
