Time, like flowing water, passed in an instant. Day after day went by, making it feel as if only the blink of an eye had passed, and Ling Yun was already almost six years old.
In the magical World of Douluo Continent, six years old is an important age, because at this time, children can awaken their Spirit.
However, to this day, Ling Yun still knew nothing about his Spirit.
However, Ling Yun did remember that Shui Bing'er's Spirit seemed to be an Ice Phoenix, and Shui Yue'er's Spirit seemed to be a type of dolphin. Ling Yun couldn't quite remember what kind of dolphin it was.
As Ling Yun was thinking about these things, he suddenly remembered that he still had a check-in mission that he hadn't completed.
Upon closer thought, this mission seemed to be awakening his Spirit. As for what kind of reward he would get after completing the mission, Ling Yun's system didn't say.
Over the years, Ling Yun gradually learned that Shui Bing'er and Ling Yun were born in the same year, but her birth month was earlier than Ling Yun's, and Ling Yun's was relatively later.
This way, Ling Yun could go with them to awaken their Spirits!
Because Ling Yun had experienced two lives, he appeared much more mature than children his age.
From childhood, Ling Yun almost never cried or fussed. From the age of two, Ling Yun began to regularly schedule his time and learn various knowledge of this World.
Every morning, he would read for two hours. After breakfast, he would start practicing swordsmanship and movement techniques. In the afternoon, the two of them would take him out to play together. In the evening, after dinner, Ling Yun would return to his room and cultivate silently by himself.
In the beginning, whenever he read, their mothers would force the two sisters to read and study with Ling Yun, which led to Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er looking at Ling Yun with deep resentment for a long time.
Shui Bing'er's personality was quiet and gentle, so she slowly adapted. Shui Yue'er, on the other hand, had a lively and cheerful personality, naturally a restless Spirit, and was often disciplined by Aunt Wanrou.
And every time Ling Yun practiced swordsmanship, Shui Yue'er would practice with Ling Yun. In fact, Shui Yue'er's talent in swordsmanship was quite good, but she was a bit inattentive; she just liked to play with Ling Yun, while Shui Bing'er would quietly read by the side.
The swordsmanship Ling Yun referred to was actually just the most basic slashes, chops, lifts, stabs, and quick draws in swordsmanship.
Since Ling Yun mastered Xiaoyao Step at the age of five, he passed it on to his family. Ling Yun told them that this was a movement Spirit Ability he had created himself.
Ling Yun clearly remembered their shocked expressions when they learned that he had created a Spirit Ability himself.
It was from that time that Ling Yun's reputation as a genius gradually spread. Many families in Heaven Dou City knew that the young master of the Shui family was a genius who could create a Spirit Ability at the age of five.
As for the cultivation technique, he did not pass it on to them, because the system said it was Ling Yun's personal exclusive cultivation technique. Others could not cultivate it.
Calculating by the current timeline, Tang San should be about the same age as Ling Yun, and it should be almost time for him to awaken his Spirit.
Ling Yun remembered that Tang San had cultivated the Tang Sect's unique skills, Mysterious Heaven Skill, Purple Demon Eye, Mysterious Jade Hand, Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, and various Hidden Weapons techniques since childhood.
Although he had a complete set of cultivation techniques and was also a transmigrator like Ling Yun, Ling Yun believed that he would definitely be stronger than him in the future, because Ling Yun had the system and was an overpowered cheat.
If, with the help of the system, he was still not stronger than him in the future, then Ling Yun could go buy a block of tofu and commit suicide.
With his identity and talent, once he grew up, he was destined to become an enemy of Spirit Hall. At that time, would the Shui family still become cannon fodder between the two forces, just like in the original story?
No, Ling Yun would never let these things happen. I must find a way to prevent the tragedy from occurring.
With Ling Yun's talent, aided by the system and his family, he would surely be able to control his own and his family's destiny in the future.
Shui Jun, the patriarch of the Shui family and Ling Yun's grandfather, is currently an 88th-level Spirit Douluo expert. Ling Yun's cheap father, Shui Tian, has already reached level 72, and both of his mothers are already above level 60.
If Shui Jun could break through to Titled Douluo within five years, then many things would become much more convenient to do in the future.
Currently, Ling Yun's family members cannot cultivate his technique, and he doesn't know if the system will reward Ling Yun with a cultivation technique that everyone can cultivate in the future.
If there were such a cultivation technique, many people in the family's cultivation speed should be able to improve significantly, and their growth potential should also increase greatly.
Ling Yun was currently cultivating in his room when he suddenly heard a knock on the door. As soon as Ling Yun reached the door, he heard a girl loudly calling from outside.
Just by listening to the voice, one could tell that this girl had a lively and cheerful personality.
"Ling Yun, Ling Yun, open the door quickly, we've come to play with you."
Ling Yun opened the door and let Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er into the room.
Shui Yue'er spoke first, saying, "Tomorrow is the day of Spirit awakening! I'm so happy, I'm too excited to sleep. I wonder what my talent will be like and what my Spirit will be. Aren't you nervous, Ling Yun?"
"Of course, I'm also very nervous and excited. But being nervous and excited is useless, it won't change the outcome. I just hope my talent will be a bit better when I'm tested tomorrow, and it would be even better if my Spirit was a sword. You all know that among all weapons, my favorite is the sword. Shui Bing'er, what about you?" Ling Yun replied.
Shui Bing'er said, "I'm actually fine. Anyway, both my father and mother have very high spirit power talent. According to bloodline inheritance, Shui Yue'er and my talent should not be low. As for our Spirits, we will probably inherit one of our parents'. It's just that your talent, Ling Yun, is hard to say. Your origin is a bit mysterious, and your Spirit and talent can only be known after the test tomorrow."
Shui Yue'er comforted him, "Don't worry, Ling Yun, your comprehension is so high, you could create a Spirit Ability at only four or five years old, and you cultivate so diligently. Your talent will definitely be very strong. Even if, by some chance, your talent isn't strong, don't you still have my sister and me? My sister and I will protect you in the future and won't let anyone bully you. So don't worry."
Shui Bing'er also comforted him, "That's right, Ling Yun, don't worry, just let everything take its natural course. After we awaken our Spirits tomorrow, Father and Mother will arrange for us to attend the Water Element Junior Spirit Master Academy. Then the three of us can be in the same class and go to school and come home together every day."
Listening to their comfort, my heart felt warm. Although he also knew that with a system backing him, how could he, an overpowered cheat, not have cultivation talent?
If, with the help of the system, he still didn't have cultivation talent, then what would be the point of the system's existence? Besides, Ling Yun clearly remembered that the internal energy generated by Tang San's daily cultivation of Mysterious Heaven Skill from a young age was ultimately converted into spirit power during his Spirit awakening.
Similarly, the internal energy generated by Ling Yun's cultivation of Azure Lotus Sword Art since childhood should also be converted into innate spirit power at that time, so I am not worried about my cultivation talent.
The three of them, Ling Yun, Shui Bing'er, and Shui Yue'er, kept chatting in the room about Spirit awakening and cultivation talent until Aunt came to call them to rest. Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er reluctantly returned to their rooms to rest.
And Ling Yun also stopped cultivating. He would go to bed early today, give himself a break, and let himself participate in tomorrow's awakening ceremony in a better state.
