Twin martial souls, innate level 20 soul power
Heaven Dou Ancient Residence.
As they watched Tang Wutong reveal her twin martial souls and peerless talent of innate full soul power at level ten on the Heavenly Screen, Tang Hao, Tang Yuehua, Tang San, and Xiao Wu could not hide their smiles.
The anger and frustration they had felt over the barrage of comments teasing Wutong had long since been washed clean by this delightful surprise.
Xiao Wu's eyes curved into crescents, the corners of her lips rising uncontrollably as pride filled her heart.
Tang San was even more delighted, completely forgetting that he and Xiao Wu were still brother and sister at present.
Li Xun watched their happy faces with a gentle smile and offered his congratulations at just the right moment:
"Little San, congratulations. My niece Wutong's talent stands above everyone in this age. A tiger father truly has no lesser daughter. As expected of your and Xiao Wu's child—she's outstanding."
Tang San came back to himself at those words. His expression was warm, his smile open and sincere as he cupped his hands in return:
"Congratulations to us both. Wutong's talent is exceptional, and I'm certain little Qingyang's talent won't be any less impressive."
Crown Prince's Estate.
Qian Renxue sat upright, her gaze resting quietly on Tang Wutong as the girl shone on the Heavenly Screen. Satisfaction slowly appeared on her cool, breathtakingly beautiful face.
The little girl on the Heavenly Screen looked as though she had been carved from jade, with a gentle, well-behaved air.
Even more remarkable were her world-stunning awakened martial souls—the twin martial souls of the Light Goddess Butterfly and the Clear Sky Hammer, paired with innate full soul power at level ten. Her talent stood head and shoulders above the rest of the entire awakening ceremony.
Before this, a trace of hesitation had lingered in her heart.
Although she had long admired the child's character and looks, secretly favoring her as a future companion for her son, her unknown talent had remained a concern. If the girl's aptitude proved mediocre, unworthy of her and A Xun's child, this marriage would require further consideration.
But now, all her concerns vanished like smoke and clouds.
Looks, bearing, character, talent—every last quality was the finest of the finest, perfectly matching all her standards for a daughter-in-law!
A smile flickered in Qian Renxue's eyes. In her heart, she had already made the final decision—
I'm claiming this daughter-in-law! It's nailed firmly to the board—no one can change it!
Now completely at ease, Qian Renxue sat quietly, filled with satisfaction as she waited for her son, Li Qingyang, to take the stage.
[Tang Wutong left the stage, but everyone remained immersed in the shock of her twin martial souls and innate full soul power. Awakening Square roared with voices, discussion rolling on without end.
The red-robed Soul Douluo bishop drew a deep breath, suppressing his excitement before speaking loudly again, his voice ringing across the entire square:
"Next—Li Qingyang!"
The moment his words fell, much of the crowd instantly fell silent.
Countless gazes converged on the central White Jade Arena.
Everyone knew that this was the day's final and most important participant—the only son of the Spirit Hall Pope, Angel God Qian Renxue!
At the front of the crowd, Yu Tianlong clenched his fists slightly, his gaze tense as he stared fixedly at the boy approaching the platform. The desire to win blazed at its fiercest in his eyes.
Under the eyes of the entire crowd, Li Qingyang stepped slowly out of the line.
The boy stood tall and composed, his features combining Li Xun's quiet restraint with Qian Renxue's nobility. Even at his young age, he possessed an extraordinary bearing. With unhurried steps, he mounted the most prestigious White Jade Main Platform and stood steadily at the center of the awakening magic array.
In the next instant!
The awakening magic arrays across the entire square suddenly trembled violently!
Buzzzz—!!
An unprecedented, terrifying roar exploded from the depths of the magic array!
The light of every child's earlier awakening paled into insignificance at that moment!
The golden runes filling the sky instantly transformed into supreme purple-gold divine light, piercing the heavens and the sun, enveloping the entire campus!
The first martial soul manifestation burst into existence!
Four phantoms of divine swords, spanning heaven and earth and sharp beyond compare, hovered in the four directions!
The Immortal Slaughtering Sword, the Immortal Slaying Sword, the Immortal Trapping Sword, and the Immortal Extinction Sword!
The four swords rang out together. Sword energy swept across the firmament, their murderous sword intent fierce enough to chill eternity. A deadly aura capable of suppressing all the heavens enveloped the world!
First martial soul—the Four Swords of Zhu Xian!
Everyone's scalp prickled instantly, their minds rocked to the core!
Before anyone could recover from that supreme divine might of the sword, an even more terrifying phenomenon descended with a thunderous force!
The earth trembled, and space churned!
A boundless ancient formation diagram encompassing all things slowly unfurled, shrouding heaven and earth in every direction. Its countless formation patterns were profound, its aura of the Dao deep and weighty. It carried the divine power to seal all things and grind the supreme beings of all heavens to death!
Second martial soul—the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation Diagram!
Twin martial souls!
The red-robed Soul Douluo's legs went weak. He nearly dropped to his knees beneath the endless pressure, his face filled with horror!
With trembling hands, he hurriedly held out the Soul Power Crystal.
Li Qingyang gently pressed his palm against the crystal.
The next second!
Crack—!!
A crisp shattering sound suddenly rang out!
The supreme-grade Soul Power Crystal blazed ever brighter, breaking past its limits—ten marks, fifteen marks, twenty marks!
Its radiance forced its way to the utmost limit the crystal could bear, and the entire crystal shattered in a dazzling burst!
The red-robed bishop's eyes widened. This crystal sphere could measure up to level twenty, yet it had actually been filled to capacity.
With a voice hoarse from strain, trembling and fanatical, he roared:
"Li Qingyang!! Twin martial souls—the Four Swords of Zhu Xian and the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation Diagram!! Innate soul power, level twenty!!"
The instant those words fell!
The entire Martial Soul Square!!
Utterly, utterly erupted into madness!!
Yu Tianlong with his level-nine soul power and Tang Wutong with her full soul power, who had just basked in limitless glory, were instantly crushed into the dust before this inconceivable, heaven-defying talent!
Innate level ten was already the limit acknowledged across the continent!
Yet Li Qingyang had shattered that limit outright!
He had achieved innate level twenty!!!
Inside the VIP box, everyone was stunned as they watched Li Qingyang awaken twin martial souls and innate level twenty on the Heavenly Screen. Only Qian Renxue wore a faint trace of disappointment between her brows.
She murmured softly to herself, "Why didn't he awaken an angel martial soul?"
Deep down, she had always hoped her children would inherit the Qian Family's Six-Winged Angel bloodline and carry on the family legacy. Now, she could not help feeling a little regret.
Though it was only a quiet murmur, everyone present was among the continent's strongest experts. Their senses were extraordinarily keen, and every word of her soft complaint reached their ears.
Seeing this, Li Xun could not help laughing aloud. He reached out and securely drew the slightly aggrieved Qian Renxue beside him into his arms, his tone indulgent and proud:
"Xue'er, isn't it good that our son inherited my martial soul? My Four Swords of Zhu Xian martial soul stands above even god-level martial souls. It's stronger and more domineering than an angel martial soul!"
Held tightly in his embrace, Qian Renxue's cool expression softened with a touch of playful petulance. She gave a quiet huff and leaned obediently against his chest, arguing softly in defiance:
"Hmph, my Qian Family's Six-Winged Angel martial soul is no slouch either. But it doesn't matter. In a few more years, when our Shuang'er awakens, an angel martial soul will surely emerge and carry on my Qian Family's bloodline."
"All right, all right. Everything Xue'er says is right."
Li Xun chuckled helplessly, his heart full of affection. He gently agreed with her, unwilling to let her feel even the slightest disappointment.
Nearby, Tang San and Xiao Wu watched the couple's warm intimacy, then both stepped forward with smiles to offer their heartfelt congratulations.
Tang San's voice was filled with sincerity. "Brother Xun, congratulations. Qingyang has awakened the twin martial souls of the Four Swords of Zhu Xian and the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation Diagram, and even broken the limits with innate level 20 soul power. His future is boundless."
Xiao Wu nodded repeatedly, envy filling her eyes. "Qingyang's talent is simply too heaven-defying. No one in all of Douluo's history can compare!"
Li Xun laughed heartily, brimming with high spirits as he teasingly entrusted his son to Tang San:
"Haha, when all is said and done, Qingyang counts as your disciple too. A teacher for a day is a father for life. Little San, I'll have to trouble you to devote plenty of care to this child from now on, to teach and temper him well."
Tang San's expression turned solemn. He nodded firmly and gave his earnest promise. "Rest assured. I'll hold nothing back and teach Qingyang with the utmost care. I won't let him squander this talent."]
