Successful Advancement, Generous Rewards

"What a familiar aura. But what exactly was it?"

At the moment Yao Xuan broke through his Soul Scholar bottleneck, Na'er, far away at Red Mountain Academy, involuntarily turned her head toward the Spirit Pagoda in Aolai City. A trace of confusion appeared in her large purple eyes.

Much like Na'er's reaction, at the instant Yao Xuan broke through, Tang Wulin suddenly felt his body tremble. A warm current surged from his tailbone, circled through his body, and slowly faded away.

Setting aside the sensations felt by Na'er and Tang Wulin, Yao Xuan was still in the midst of advancing within the Spirit Pagoda's Cultivation Room. As the nine-colored energy transformed his body, he felt incomparably comfortable, as though he had returned to the womb and was continuously nourished. Both his mind and body were in a state of utter relaxation.

Ding! Congratulations on successfully fusing a Soul Spirit and advancing to Level 11 Soul Scholar!

Ding! You have successfully advanced to Soul Scholar. Your profile has been updated. Would you like to view it?

Half an hour later, the intensely comfortable sensation finally faded away. At that moment, the system's notification sounded beside Yao Xuan's ear.

"View!"

Hearing the system notification, Yao Xuan silently nodded.

At Yao Xuan's thought, a flash of silver light passed before his eyes, forming an ancient-looking profile window that displayed his overall attributes after advancing.

"This is wonderful! I've finally advanced to Soul Scholar! At last, I've taken my first step on the path of cultivation!"

Feeling the Soul Power within him, now several times more abundant than before, Yao Xuan could not help but smile in satisfaction. It was not just his Soul Power that had advanced. During the process of advancing to Soul Scholar, his Spiritual Power had also increased by six points, reaching ninety-one and breaking through to the peak of the Spirit Origin Realm.

Moreover, Yao Xuan had gained two brand-new system abilities. He intended to unlock them after returning home, rather than doing so in the Spirit Pagoda.

Ding! New main mission acquired: Break Through to Soul Grandmaster. Accept mission?

Just as Yao Xuan was preparing to stand and leave the Cultivation Room, the system notification sounded by his ear once more.

"Accept."

At Yao Xuan's thought, the previous profile window vanished from before him. Immediately afterward, another window appeared amid a flash of silver light.

Mission Name: Break Through to Soul Grandmaster

Mission Description: Having entered the Soul Scholar realm, you have cast off your mortal body and stepped into the extraordinary domain. However, in the world of Soul Scholars, the Soul Scholar realm is merely the beginning. To secure a place in the Soul Scholar world of the future, you cannot relax in the slightest. You must seize the time and break through to the next realm after Soul Scholar—the Soul Grandmaster realm—as soon as possible.

Time Limit: 2 years

Failure Penalty: None (mission rewards cannot be obtained if the time limit is exceeded)

Mission Rewards: Golden Evolution Points x1000, system ability Supernatural Condensation, system ability Simulated Combat Space

Special Reminder: The Ancestral Dragon Martial Soul and Ancestral Dragon Bloodline complement each other. To ensure your perfect advancement, please raise your Ancestral Dragon Bloodline to 10% and unlock the first-stage bloodline ability before breaking through to Level 20. Otherwise, it may adversely affect your future development.

Break through to Soul Grandmaster within two years? With the Fortune Soul Forging Art, as long as I make the most of my time, it definitely won't be difficult! For now, I should hurry home, unlock the new system abilities, fuse the Infinitely Growing Soul Spirit granted by the system, and truly unlock my first Soul Skill!

However, breaking through to Soul Grandmaster may be easy, but raising my Ancestral Dragon Bloodline to 10% before Level 20 won't be so simple! It seems that, for the sake of advancing perfectly to Soul Grandmaster and for my future development, I absolutely cannot slack off.

As he pondered, Yao Xuan rose from the ground and left the Cultivation Room.

"Kid, you've already successfully advanced to Soul Scholar? So quickly?"

Seeing Yao Xuan walk out of the Cultivation Room, the Spirit Master standing guard outside asked in surprise.

"Yes, Spirit Master. Fusing the Soul Spirit didn't seem difficult. I succeeded after just one attempt."

Yao Xuan replied as he looked at the Spirit Master.

"That makes sense. Your Spiritual Power has already reached nearly three times that of Soul Scholars at the same level, and you fused only a ten-year Soul Spirit. On top of that, your Martial Soul is of a higher grade than that Soul Spirit. Such a smooth fusion is perfectly normal."

"Since you've already advanced to Soul Scholar, let's test your Soul Power. Once the test is complete, your advancement record will be entered into the Sun Moon Federation's archives. From now on, you'll also be able to receive one thousand Federal Coin from the Federation each month."

After hearing Yao Xuan's words, the Spirit Master seemed to realize something and nodded in understanding before leading Yao Xuan out of the Cultivation Room.

"Yao Xuan, did you successfully fuse the Soul Spirit?"

When she saw the Spirit Master lead Yao Xuan out, Lin Ximeng asked him.

"Mom, I succeeded! I'm a Soul Scholar now too. This Spirit Master is taking me to test my Soul Power and register me."

Hearing Lin Ximeng's question, Yao Xuan answered her truthfully.

"Good, it's good that you succeeded. Mom is proud of you. Go on, Mom will wait for you here."

Upon receiving the news of Yao Xuan's success, a relieved expression appeared on Lin Ximeng's face.

The Spirit Master led Yao Xuan to another Soul Power testing room, then instructed him to sit on another soul-guided device and release his Soul Power.

"Level eleven. Good, it seems you've successfully advanced to Soul Scholar. Congratulations, young man. I'll issue your certificate and file your registration right away."

Looking at the result on the Soul Power tester, the Spirit Master nodded and spoke to Yao Xuan. Half an hour later, holding his Soul Scholar certificate, Yao Xuan and Lin Ximeng left the Spirit Pagoda and headed home.
