Martial Soul Awakening, Different Place, Similar Brother Tao! (Please Recommend, Check In, and Bookmark!)
After wishing for the Chaos Azure Lotus Martial Soul.
Lin Yu immediately felt an inexplicable force enter his body, flowing through his limbs and bones before surging into the depths of his body and becoming a part of him.
However, Lin Yu had thought that obtaining the Chaos Azure Lotus Martial Soul would bring some degree of change to his body.
After all, the Chaos Azure Lotus was the being that had nurtured Pangu, the legendary creator of the primordial world.
But unfortunately, after obtaining the Chaos Azure Lotus Martial Soul, Lin Yu found that aside from feeling a little more energetic, his body had not undergone any major changes.
This made Lin Yu sigh inwardly.
So I really can't exploit loopholes in the system after all!
After making his wish, Lin Yu descended from the back hill and headed toward Windmill Village.
Along the way, Lin Yu saw that the uncles and aunties who would normally be working hard in the fields at this time were now all gathered in discussion.
Lin Yu knew they were probably talking about the Live Stream Room that had appeared earlier.
But this only made him sigh with complicated feelings.
Although the emergence of the Live Quiz System was an opportunity for the entire Douluo Continent, that opportunity belonged only to knowledgeable nobles and Soul Masters.
For commoners like them, aside from exceptions like himself, they would gain virtually nothing unless they stumbled into outrageous luck.
Instead, there was a greater chance that, if no one in the entire Live Stream Room answered the questions correctly, they would suffer the punishment of having their lives taken away.
After all, commoners made up the overwhelming majority of people across the Douluo Continent.
If no one answered correctly and people were truly selected at random for punishment, commoners would undoubtedly be far more likely to suffer.
But of the fifty paths of the Great Dao, Heaven derived forty-nine; there was always a sliver of hope in all things!
Although the questions posed by the Live Q&A had so far been tricky—or rather, difficult—they were not entirely without clues.
For the commoners of the Douluo Continent, if they were truly willing to risk their lives for a chance to change their fate, then with enough luck, it was not impossible.
So Lin Yu did not dwell on it for long. He quickly adjusted his mood, hummed a tune, and briskly headed toward his wooden house.
Today, he had finally bound his cheat and even obtained the legendary Chaos Azure Lotus as his Martial Soul.
He had to celebrate properly!
In the blink of an eye, the next day arrived.
Because today was the day of Martial Soul Awakening, Lin Yu got up very early.
After washing up and finishing breakfast, Lin Yu set off directly for the Martial Soul Sub-Hall in the center of the village.
By the time Lin Yu was about to reach the Martial Soul Sub-Hall in the village center, quite a few people had already gathered on the lawn in front of it. They were all parents who had brought their children to undergo Martial Soul Awakening.
"Hello, Uncle Lin Ya. It's only been a few days, but you seem to have gotten even stronger!"
"Hello, Auntie Suli. I suddenly noticed today that you seem to have become younger. I almost thought Sister Lili had arrived!"
"Hello, Uncle Paike. Huh, Uncle Paike, you seem so energetic today!"
As he walked toward the Martial Soul Sub-Hall, Lin Yu greeted all the village elders on the lawn with a sweet, smiling mouth.
Only then did Lin Yu walk beneath a large tree nearby and sit down, unable to stop himself from yawning sleepily.
He had never gotten up this early before.
While waiting for the guiding Soul Master from the Martial Soul Sub-Hall in nearby Jila City to arrive, Lin Yu casually looked around.
On the lawn, aside from the elders who had brought children for Martial Soul Awakening—
There were only four children actually participating in the Martial Soul Awakening, including Lin Yu.
Compared to the seven children in Holy Soul Village, that was undoubtedly far fewer!
It had to be said that Holy Soul Village might have benefited from that so-called Soul Saint legend. The treatment it enjoyed was far better than that of Windmill Village, where Lin Yu lived.
At the very least, Windmill Village did not have a work-study student quota of its own.
Moreover, Windmill Village's Martial Soul Sub-Hall was merely a very crude wooden hut with a thatched roof.
Fortunately, because of its importance—
Although this shabby Martial Soul Sub-Hall had suffered much damage—
The villagers had repaired it all. Otherwise, it would have looked even worse.
After waiting for roughly ten minutes.
An old man with graying hair and beard, leaning on a cane and dressed in a grayish-brown robe, finally approached from afar with a middle-aged man wearing the standard uniform of Spirit Hall.
"Alright, the Soul Master sent by the Jila City Martial Soul Sub-Hall has arrived. Now let the children follow Lord Soul Master inside to begin their Martial Soul Awakening!"
After arriving in front of the Martial Soul Sub-Hall, the old man spoke in a weathered voice.
"Yes, Village Chief Leo! Goudan, remember to listen to Lord Soul Master later, understand?"
"Sizhu, you too. Don't fool around. Martial Soul Awakening is very important!"
"Erya, you need to behave too, understand?"
After Village Chief Leo spoke, the villagers who had brought their children for Martial Soul Awakening immediately began instructing their children.
Lin Yu also rose to his feet and walked toward the Martial Soul Sub-Hall.
"Alright, all of you, come in with me!"
After the guiding Soul Master opened the doors of the Martial Soul Sub-Hall, the four children, including Lin Yu, followed him inside under his guidance.
As for Village Chief Leo and the other villagers, they naturally remained outside the Martial Soul Sub-Hall to wait.
After entering the Martial Soul Sub-Hall, just like Blind Douluo Su Yuntao from Lin Yu's memories—
The guiding Soul Master sent from Jila City took out six black round stones from the bag he carried with him and arranged them on the ground into a hexagram formation.
He then took out a dark blue crystal ball and placed it on the table at the front of the wooden hut.
"Alright, let me introduce myself. My name is Hou Yuntao, a level twenty-four Soul Grandmaster and your Martial Soul guide. Whatever I tell you to do later, make sure you follow it exactly. Understood?"
Looking at the four children before him, the middle-aged Soul Grandmaster named Hou Yuntao spoke in a deep voice.
Hou Yuntao... that name had something to it!
Upon hearing the guiding Soul Master's name, Lin Yu was a little taken aback.
But don't get the wrong idea!
What Lin Yu meant was that, instead of Blind Douluo Su Yuntao, he had somehow gotten a Hou Yuntao with a similar name.
"You, come out. Step into this Martial Soul Awakening Array!"
After speaking, Hou Yuntao immediately pointed at Goudan, who stood at the far left of the line.
"Okay!"
Because he had learned the general process of Martial Soul Awakening from his older brother Gangdan, Goudan was not completely clueless. Instead, he walked curiously into the hexagram array.
"White Iron Staff, appear!"
Seeing Goudan step into the Martial Soul Awakening Array, Hou Yuntao gave a low shout and summoned a white iron staff Martial Soul.
At the same time, two white soul rings rose beneath his feet and circled around his body.
Immediately afterward, Hou Yuntao rapidly moved his hands, sending several streams of white Soul Power into the black round stones that formed the hexagram array.
For a moment, countless golden specks of light continuously drifted out from the black stones and poured into Goudan's short, dark, skinny body.
"Close your eyes and sense the Martial Soul within your body!"
At Hou Yuntao's low shout, Goudan obediently closed his eyes. Feeling a faint restlessness within his body, he began sensing his Martial Soul.
But unfortunately, on the Douluo Continent, the odds of commoners awakening a good Martial Soul and becoming Soul Masters were simply too low!
The Martial Soul Goudan ultimately awakened was a Rake, and his final Soul Power test result was zero!
This left Goudan somewhat dejected.
His family had given him the lowly name Goudan not only because it implied he would be easy to raise, but also because they hoped he would awaken a dog Martial Soul.
That was not impossible. Goudan's maternal grandfather had awakened a dog Martial Soul and possessed Soul Power, though he had ultimately failed to become a Soul Master.
After Goudan, the second person to awaken a Martial Soul was Sizhu.
But Sizhu also awakened a useless Martial Soul without any Soul Power: a Sickle!
As for Erya, she awakened the standard form of a useless Martial Soul as well: a strand of Blue Silver Grass!
Finally, it was Lin Yu's turn.
