A transmigrator's standard package-innate level 20 soul power was perfectly reasonable, right!

The Douluo Continent.

Spirit City.

Over a hundred children had gathered inside Spirit Hall, all waiting for their martial souls to awaken.

One fair, chubby child stood out in particular, mainly because he was simply too adorable.

"All right, today is the important day when you awaken your martial souls. Everyone must stay quiet. When your name is called, come forward to awaken your martial soul."

"Chen Xuanqing, an orphan of Spirit Hall..."

Having absorbed his memories, Chen Xuanqing felt rather at a loss. He pinched his round cheek, and only when he felt the pain did he realize he really had transmigrated-and into the world of the Douluo Continent, the bottom of the fantasy barrel, where hidden weapons could injure gods.

[Ding! Congratulations, host! System bound. You have received one beginner's gift pack.]

Chen Xuanqing calmly accepted the system in his mind. All the novels he had read had made him thoroughly familiar with cheats like this.

"Open the beginner's gift pack!"

[Ding! Congratulations, host! You have received a bloodline cleansing from the Crocodile Ancestor of the Shrouding the Heavens world.]

In an instant, Chen Xuanqing felt energy circulating continuously through his body. The warm sensation soon immersed him in bliss, and an expression of enjoyment appeared on his face.

"Brother Xie Yue, look! That person next to us is so strange!"

Hu Liena, who was only six at the time, had also noticed Chen Xuanqing undergoing the cleansing. This fair, chubby child piqued her curiosity.

Xie Yue, however, kept his gaze fixed straight ahead on the children awakening their martial souls one after another. His eyes were full of worry, as though he feared his martial soul and soul power would not qualify him to join Spirit Hall.

Time ticked by, second after second.

One child after another awakened their martial soul, but unfortunately, not a single child with innate full soul power appeared.

Just as the Soul Saint in charge of the awakening at Spirit Hall began to lose patience, Chen Xuanqing's turn finally came.

Looking at the strange stones and the blue crystal ball, Chen Xuanqing could only feel that this magic-like ritual was far too unreliable.

"Chen Xuanqing, step forward to awaken your soul power."

Having watched the others awaken their martial souls, Chen Xuanqing naturally stepped into the circle. A dome of light immediately enveloped Chen Kun, and in an instant, the entire palace blazed with golden light. Even the Soul Douluo, who had stood motionless all this time, broke into a broad smile.

As for the Soul Saint conducting the awakening, he simply stared dumbfounded. Wasn't this light a little too intense?

Then, before everyone's astonished eyes, the phantom of a hundred-meter-long giant crocodile appeared above the hall, instantly frightening everyone inside.

A figure suddenly rushed out of the Worship Hall and headed toward Spirit Hall's awakening hall.

Watching the departing figure, Qian Daoliu gave a helpless, wry smile. Inwardly, however, he began to ponder just what martial soul could display such tremendous might upon awakening.

Even the most gifted children of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, whose martial soul was the continent's finest beast martial soul, probably could not awaken one this enormous.

Meanwhile.

Another figure swiftly rushed out of the Supreme Pontiff's Hall, also heading toward Spirit Hall's awakening hall.

"Excellent! A boy like you ought to be my disciple!"

After the first figure entered the hall, everyone present, whether Soul Douluo or Soul Saint, immediately bowed in greeting.

"Greetings, Golden Crocodile Douluo!"

The second figure entered the hall at that moment, and everyone present bowed again.

"Greetings, Ghost Douluo!"

After receiving their greetings, Gui Mei immediately turned and bowed to Golden Crocodile Douluo.

"Greetings, Second Worship!"

Spirit Hall's hierarchy was on full display at that moment. Titled Douluos held an exalted status, but even among Titled Douluos, Golden Crocodile Douluo's position was particularly exceptional.

Golden Crocodile Douluo paid no attention to Gui Mei's gesture, however. Instead, he gazed at Chen Xuanqing with a beaming smile.

"Boy, how would you like to take me as your master? I'm one of those legendary Titled Douluos, you know!"

Everyone from Spirit Hall twitched their lips. Does that coaxing-a-child tone really suit Spirit Hall's Second Worship?

Chen Xuanqing, however, replied in a babyish voice, "Can we wait until I've finished testing my soul power?"

Chen Xuanqing was quite helpless about his own situation. He was only six, after all-far too young.

"Oh, come now! With such a powerful martial soul, my disciple, you're certain to have innate full soul power." Golden Crocodile Douluo slapped his forehead as he spoke. "No, wait! Perhaps my disciple has innate level 20 soul power too."

Behind Golden Crocodile Douluo, Gui Mei pursed his lips. Qian Renxue had only achieved innate level 20 soul power thanks to her six-winged angel martial soul and her parents' talent.

Although the boy before him had a powerful martial soul, innate full soul power would be his absolute limit. How could he possibly be as powerful as Her Highness Qian Renxue?

No one knew what Gui Mei was thinking. Chen Xuanqing simply proceeded with the soul power test. He held the blue crystal ball in his hand, and in an instant, a dazzling light flashed before the ball shattered with a bang.

At the sight, Golden Crocodile Douluo immediately stepped forward, scooped Chen Xuanqing up, and left to return to the Worship Hall.

Golden Crocodile Douluo clearly knew what had just happened. It was exactly the same as when the Great Enshrined's granddaughter, Qian Renxue, had tested her soul power after awakening.

"Great Enshrined! A genius! An unparalleled genius of Spirit Hall! Everyone, come out and see my disciple!"

Golden Crocodile Douluo called out to everyone somewhat incoherently, unable to calm the excitement in his heart.

Before long, Spirit Hall's other six Worships had all arrived. Every one of them stared intently at Golden Crocodile Douluo.

"Innate level 20 soul power! What do you think of my disciple?"

As he spoke, Golden Crocodile Douluo brought out the blue crystal ball used when Qian Renxue had awakened her martial soul. Chen Xuanqing could only helplessly indulge this old man's desire to show off.

And so, before them all, Chen Xuanqing helplessly released his soul power once again, and the crystal ball blazed with light.

The Worships present all knew what this meant: an unparalleled genius with innate level 20 soul power. In other words, even if some useless fool taught him, his lowest possible achievement would still be Titled Douluo.

"Second Worship, I don't believe he's called you Master yet. Why don't you become my disciple instead, child?" As he spoke, the Fourth Worship, Demon Bear Douluo, immediately snatched Chen Xuanqing away.

"You're all crude brutes. Leave this to me!"

"No, leave it to me!"

As the Worships passed Chen Xuanqing back and forth in their scramble for him, even Qian Daoliu felt a flicker of temptation. His granddaughter had already gone undercover in the Heaven Dou Empire. Surely adopting a grandson would not be too much?

Then his grandson and granddaughter could get together and give him a great-grandson with innate level 40 soul power. Just thinking about it was delightful!

"All of you, shut up!" Golden Crocodile Douluo pulled Chen Xuanqing into his arms. "My martial soul is the Golden Crocodile King, and Xuanqing's is also a powerful crocodilian martial soul. Obviously, I'm the best choice to be Xuanqing's master!"

"Oh, come now! Let Xuanqing say what he thinks!"

"Right, exactly!"

Faced with the Worships fighting over him, Chen Xuanqing had no idea what to say. I have a system. I don't need a master at all, okay?
