Holy Soul Village

"Yuhao, you don't need to worry. Even if you don't awaken a particularly good martial soul, even if you have no innate soul power, it doesn't matter."

"You'll always be part of Holy Soul Village. As long as Grandpa has a bite to eat, you'll never go hungry."

Outside the Awakening Hall

Old Jack nervously held Huo Yuhao's hand.

Although he desperately wanted a soul master to emerge from the village, things had been the same year after year.

With his precocious nature, Huo Yuhao understood things and even knew to lead the villagers in pooling their goods, jointly acquiring a shop in the city, and selling everything together. Within two years, he had led the people of Holy Soul Village to prosperity.

For the simple fact that he had made the villagers' lives countless times better than in previous years, even if Huo Yuhao failed to awaken a particularly good martial soul or any innate soul power-

Holy Soul Village would always be Huo Yuhao's home. As long as Holy Soul Village had a bite to eat, Huo Yuhao would not go hungry.

"Village Chief Jack, what are you saying? I've known Yuhao was extraordinary since he was little. He's definitely soul master material."

"Exactly! Even if Yuhao doesn't have very high innate soul power, even if it's only rank one, our village will smash our pots and sell our iron to send him to the Soul Master Academy. After all, he's the hope of the entire village!"

"Yuhao is obedient and sensible, and he remembers us uncles whenever something good comes along. We certainly won't treat him poorly!"

The surrounding villagers who had brought their children to awaken their martial souls could no longer stay quiet after hearing Old Jack's words.

Under Huo Yuhao's influence, Holy Soul Village had already undergone a tremendous transformation. It could be said that heaven and earth had been remade. Every household had renovated its home and had money to spare. The village had even bought a shop in Nuoding City, where all the village's goods could be sold. Their lives were better by goodness knew how much.

"Yuhao, don't put too much pressure on yourself. Even if your awakening results aren't very good, with how bright you are, you can become village chief once Old Jack retires!"

"Lead the villagers to prosperity and into the provincial capital!"

"The villagers are proud of you!"

Feeling the approving gazes of the Holy Soul Village residents around him, Huo Yuhao's eyes reddened.

When had he ever experienced such recognition, being valued by so many people, being regarded as the hope of an entire village?

After Old Jack found him, he had adopted him, registered him as a resident, and settled him in Holy Soul Village under his own household.

Old Jack scrimped on food and clothing to provide for him first, while the villagers helped out from time to time, afraid that Old Jack would not be able to raise him properly and that the child would starve.

Huo Yuhao's heart was not made of stone. Naturally, he could not remain heartless and ungrateful. He had thought of every possible way to lead Holy Soul Village to prosperity, completely transforming its circumstances in just two short years.

"Everyone... thank you!"

"Carrying your hopes, I definitely won't let you down!"

"Since the village needs a soul master, needs a soul master to protect it, then I, Huo Yuhao, will live up to your expectations and become that person!"

"Put everything on my shoulders, stake everything on me. I won't let you down!"

Carrying Old Jack's hopes and the expectations of the entire village, Huo Yuhao resolutely entered the Awakening Hall.

"Blue Silver Grass, no soul power. Next!"

"Hoe, no soul power. Next!"

Inside the Awakening Hall, Spirit Hall deacon Su Yuntao was conducting one dull, tedious martial soul awakening after another.

Just like in the other villages, their martial souls were all the most worthless, commonplace trash martial souls.

They had no innate soul power either. They lacked the aptitude to become soul masters.

Until someone appeared with black hair, black eyes, and a resolute gaze, dressed in plain cloth but with a bearing clearly unlike that of a village child.

Huo Yuhao stepped into the Six-Pointed Star Array used for martial soul awakening.

Su Yuntao activated Martial Soul Possession. A wolf slowly appeared behind him, and two soul rings, one white and one yellow, appeared around him.

"Focus on sensing your body. Let your martial soul..."

Before Su Yuntao could finish speaking, the endless soul power in the surroundings suddenly began gathering uncontrollably and pouring into the Six-Pointed Star Array.

The next instant, dazzling golden light began gathering uncontrollably around the Awakening Hall. Under the deliberate guidance of the world will, the purest soul power essence in the entire world began converging madly.

Without anyone noticing, a golden vertical eye above the Douluo World also slowly and silently began opening its eyes.

The power of the world, the flowing radiance of the Great Dao... a beam of golden light suddenly erupted from the Awakening Hall, shooting straight into the sky.

Dazzling golden light instantly pierced the darkness inside the Awakening Hall.

As those eyes shrouded in golden light slowly opened, the Douluo World rumbled. A spatial rift suddenly split open, and a figure enveloped in light slowly appeared, summoned from another world, and swiftly flew into Huo Yuhao's spiritual sea.

The next instant, he became Huo Yuhao's martial soul, and a golden-gray phantom slowly appeared behind Huo Yuhao.

Dumbstruck. Su Yuntao, who had been preparing to awaken Huo Yuhao's martial soul inside the Awakening Hall, was dumbstruck, as were all the children inside.

Even everyone in the Three Realms watching the Wenxin Livestream was dumbfounded.

"Tell me, what the hell does it mean to be favored by the world will, with fortune blazing like a rainbow!"

"Hey, hey, hey, is the world will not even pretending anymore? He hasn't undergone his martial soul awakening yet. The world is forcibly awakening it for him, huh?"

"Wait, isn't that Electrolux? No, why is he glowing gold? Wasn't he supposed to be covered in black soul power and evil?"

The next instant, everyone from the Douluo I Era was forcibly pulled back to their original timeline.

Because Huo Yuhao had already completed the Life Exchange experience of Tang San's life before the age of six.

The instant after his martial soul awakened, Huo Yuhao discovered that his eyes seemed able to communicate with the world, and the entire Douluo World seemed to lie within his eyes.

Guided by the world, Huo Yuhao saw the Star Dou Great Forest and a golden-haired girl. He also saw Sea God Island, Slaughter City, the Far North, and even another continent across the sea, the Evil Emperor... He silently committed that other continent's soul tool manufacturing methods to memory. He kept feeling that these things could lead all of Holy Soul Village to prosperity.

Inside the Awakening Hall, Su Yuntao shuddered. Looking at the Wenxin Livestream in his mind, then raising his head to look at Huo Yuhao before him, his eyes instantly erupted with dazzling golden light.

"Tang... no, Yuhao, Huo Yuhao, the future Emotion God King, Authentic Yuhao!"

"I awakened a God King! I'm about to soar!"

Su Yuntao stepped forward twice, tightly clutching the Soul Power Testing Crystal Ball.

"Quick, quick, test your soul power!"

Huo Yuhao looked at Su Yuntao in some bewilderment, but still slowly placed his right hand on it.

The next instant, dazzling blue light enveloped the entire Awakening Hall.

"Heavens, it's innate full soul power, and twin martial souls at that!"

Huo Yuhao's pupils shook violently, and he, too, was somewhat dumbfounded. Wasn't I supposed to have rank-one innate soul power?

"Innate full soul power, twin martial souls... I've never had such a satisfying genius's script!"

Su Yuntao was filled with excitement, his body trembling uncontrollably in wave after wave.

"Child, are you willing to join Spirit Hall?"

"Under Spirit Hall's tutelage, you'll receive the best education and the best cultivation resources!"

"You'll stand at the summit of the continent!"
