Twin Martial Souls and Level Twenty Innate Soul Power

Heaven Dou Ancient Residence.

As they watched Tang Wutong's Twin Martial Souls appear on the Heavenly Screen, along with her extraordinary talent of level ten Innate Full Soul Power, Tang Hao, Tang Yuehua, Tang San, and Xiao Wu could not hide their smiles.

The irritation and frustration they had felt when the comments mocked Wutong had long since been washed away by this surprise.

Xiao Wu's eyes curved with delight. She could not stop smiling, her heart brimming with pride.

Tang San looked even happier, having completely forgotten that he and Xiao Wu were still brother and sister.

Li Xun looked at the delighted group with a gentle smile and offered his congratulations at just the right moment:

"Little San, congratulations. Your niece Wutong's talent is unmatched in this age. A fine daughter of fine parents, indeed. She truly takes after you and Xiao Wu."

Tang San came back to himself. With a warm, open smile, he cupped his hands in reply:

"Congratulations to us both. Wutong is exceptionally gifted, but I'm sure little Qingyang's talent won't be any less impressive."

Crown Prince's Estate.

Qian Renxue sat quietly, gazing at Tang Wutong as she dazzled everyone on the Heavenly Screen. A look of satisfaction slowly crossed her cool, beautiful face.

The little girl on the screen was as pretty as a doll, with a gentle, well-behaved air.

More remarkable still were the Martial Souls she had awakened: the Light Goddess Butterfly and Clear Sky Hammer, paired with level ten Innate Full Soul Power. Of everyone at the awakening ceremony, her talent stood alone at the very top.

Until now, Qian Renxue had harbored a trace of hesitation.

She had already taken a liking to the child's character and looks, and privately favored her as a partner for her son. But Wutong's talent had remained unknown. If she proved mediocre and could not match the child Qian Renxue had with Xun, the marriage would need reconsideration.

Now, every concern had vanished.

Looks, bearing, character, talent—Wutong was outstanding in every respect. She met every standard Qian Renxue had for a daughter-in-law!

A smile flickered in Qian Renxue's eyes. She had made up her mind—

This daughter-in-law was hers. It was settled, and no one would change it!

Thoroughly reassured, Qian Renxue sat back in satisfaction and waited for her son, Li Qingyang, to take the stage.

[Tang Wutong left the stage, but everyone remained stunned by her Twin Martial Souls and Innate Full Soul Power. The Awakening Square buzzed with endless discussion.

The red-robed Soul Douluo bishop drew a deep breath, suppressed his excitement, and called out once more, his voice carrying across the square:

"Next—Li Qingyang!"

The square fell mostly silent at once.

Countless eyes turned toward the White Jade Arena at its center.

Everyone knew who he was: the last to appear today, and the most anticipated of all—the only son of the Spirit Hall Pope, Qian Renxue, the Angel God!

At the front of the crowd, Yu Tianlong clenched his fists. He stared at the boy approaching the platform, his desire to win written plainly in his tense gaze.

Under the eyes of the entire crowd, Li Qingyang stepped out of line.

The boy stood straight and steady. His features combined Li Xun's composure with Qian Renxue's nobility, and despite his young age, he carried himself with remarkable poise. He walked calmly onto the highest-grade White Jade Main Platform and stopped at the center of the awakening Magic Array.

The next instant!

The awakening Magic Array shook violently across the square!

Boom—!!

An unprecedented roar erupted from deep within the Magic Array!

The light from every child's awakening before his paled in comparison!

Golden runes filling the sky turned into supreme violet-gold divine light. It surged upward, covered the sun, and enveloped the entire academy!

The phantom of his first Martial Soul burst into existence!

Four towering divine swords, each incomparably sharp, hovered in the four directions!

The Immortal Slaughtering Sword, Immortal Slaying Sword, Immortal Trapping Sword, and Immortal Extinction Sword!

The four swords rang out together. Sword energy cut across the heavens, and their killing intent chilled all creation. A murderous aura that seemed capable of subduing the heavens engulfed the world!

His first Martial Soul—the Four Swords of Zhu Xian!

Everyone in the square felt their scalp prickle, their minds reeling!

Before anyone could recover from the swords' divine might, an even more terrifying vision descended!

The earth trembled, and space churned!

An ancient diagram of boundless scope slowly unfurled, covering the world in every direction. Its countless intricate patterns radiated profound power—the power to seal all things and destroy even the mightiest beings in the heavens!

His second Martial Soul—the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation Diagram!

Twin Martial Souls!

The red-robed Soul Douluo's legs buckled. He nearly dropped to his knees beneath the overwhelming pressure, his face filled with shock!

With trembling hands, he hurriedly held out the Soul Power crystal.

Li Qingyang lightly pressed his palm against it.

One second later!

Crack—!!

A sharp fracture split the air!

Light surged through the premium Soul Power crystal, blasting past one mark after another. Ten, fifteen, twenty!

The glow reached the crystal's limit, and the dazzling crystal shattered!

The red-robed bishop stared. That crystal ball could measure up to level twenty, yet Li Qingyang had filled it completely.

His voice shook with disbelief and fervor as he roared:

"Li Qingyang!! Twin Martial Souls—the Four Swords of Zhu Xian and the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation Diagram!! Level twenty Innate Soul Power!!"

The moment those words rang out!

The entire Martial Soul Square!!

Utterly, completely erupted!!

Yu Tianlong, whose level nine talent had shone so brightly, and Tang Wutong, with her Innate Full Soul Power, were eclipsed in an instant by this unfathomable talent!

Level ten Innate Soul Power was the limit acknowledged across the continent!

Li Qingyang had shattered that limit!

He had reached level twenty Innate Soul Power!!!

In the VIP box, everyone was stunned by Li Qingyang's Twin Martial Souls and level twenty Innate Soul Power on the Heavenly Screen. Only Qian Renxue showed a faint trace of disappointment.

She murmured, "Why didn't he awaken an Angel Martial Soul?"

She had always hoped her child would inherit the Qian family's Six-Winged Angel bloodline and carry on its legacy. She could not help feeling a little regret.

She had spoken softly, but everyone present was among the continent's strongest, with senses to match. Not a word of her quiet complaint escaped them.

Li Xun could not help laughing aloud. He drew the faintly aggrieved Qian Renxue firmly into his arms, his voice affectionate and proud:

"Xue'er, what's wrong with our son inheriting my Martial Souls? My Four Swords of Zhu Xian surpass even god-tier Martial Souls. They're stronger and more formidable than an Angel Martial Soul!"

Held close against him, Qian Renxue gave a soft huff. A hint of playful indignation touched her cool features as she leaned against his chest and quietly argued:

"Hmph. My family's Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul is no less impressive. But it doesn't matter. In a few years, when Shuang'er awakens hers, she'll surely awaken an Angel Martial Soul and carry on the Qian family bloodline."

"All right, all right. Whatever you say, Xue'er."

Li Xun chuckled helplessly and agreed with her, his voice gentle. He could not bear to leave her disappointed.

Nearby, Tang San and Xiao Wu smiled at the affectionate couple, then stepped forward to offer their heartfelt congratulations.

Tang San spoke with complete sincerity. "Brother Xun, congratulations. Qingyang has awakened the Four Swords of Zhu Xian and the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation Diagram as Twin Martial Souls. With level twenty Innate Soul Power that breaks the known limit, his future is boundless."

Xiao Wu nodded repeatedly, her eyes full of admiration. "Qingyang's talent is incredible. No one in the whole history of Douluo can compare!"

Li Xun laughed heartily, brimming with pride, then entrusted his son to Tang San with a teasing smile:

"Haha, Qingyang is your disciple, after all. A teacher is a father for life. Little San, I'll have to trouble you to put more effort into teaching and honing him from now on."

Tang San nodded firmly, his expression solemn. "Don't worry. I'll teach Qingyang everything I know and guide him carefully. I won't let him waste this talent."]
