“Could it be the Blue Superb martial soul?” Wang Che asked, “I remember that your parents’ martial souls are kettles. They work in the fire department.”
The kettle was a martial soul with a wide variety of uses.
Basically, any martial soul related to water had a wide range of uses.
This meant that the awakener would have many possible occupations in the future.
The effects on soul pets were also wider.
Therefore, Xu Haifeng’s family background was not bad.
“Hehe, you’ll know later.” Xu Haifeng was a little excited.
His face showed that he wanted to show off.
Wang Che: “…”
‘I get it. It’s a martial soul of the Purple Legacy grade.’
Otherwise, Xu Haifeng would not have such an expression.
“Brother Che, your parents hadn’t awakened their martial souls. This time, I think that I can beat you!”
“It’s been three years. After being suppressed by Master Che until we can’t breathe, we can finally make a comeback in terms of martial souls!”
“I think you’re thinking too much. Back then, Brother Che could beat us with just a green caterpillar. I think his martial soul might beat us too…”
“F*ck, now that you mention it, I’m losing confidence.”
…
The students teased each other.
“My martial soul is very ordinary. If you don’t believe me, ask the green caterpillar.” Wang Che pointed at the green caterpillar and said, “Right?”
The green caterpillar nodded.
Soul pets rarely lied.
When the students saw this, they immediately had a feeling.
Wang Che’s martial soul was definitely not ordinary.
The green caterpillar was a worm. What did it know about martial souls?
At this moment, the surrounding crowd moved slightly.
A beautiful figure walked into the queue.
As the beautiful figure walked over, everyone was even more excited. The desire to show off in their eyes became even more urgent.
There were many pretty girls in First High.
However, for a girl like Lin Xi who had an impeccable family background, appearance, and figure, and had a faint mysterious aura, there really wasn’t any.
“Everyone, long time no see.” Lin Xi smiled and greeted many students.
“Hello, Goddess Lin. I haven’t seen you in a few months, but you’re getting prettier and prettier!”
“Ah, that Cloud Cap Snake has evolved to the second stage! Its cultivation hasn’t reached a thousand years, but it should be at least seven to eight hundred years old, right? How did it evolve?”
“It feels more valiant than before… The special training shouldn’t be simple.”
“I have a feeling that Lin Xi’s martial soul is definitely very strong…”
“Do you even need a feeling for that…”
…
Although they had not seen each other for a semester, Lin Xi’s appearance still made the students quite excited.
Until she walked up to Wang Che, Lin Xi’s smile did not change. Her gaze landed on the green caterpillar on Wang Che’s body as she said, “Wang Che, your green caterpillar has become stronger again.”
“Hiss! Hiss!” The Feathered Spirit Snake that had completed its evolution also looked at the green caterpillar, its eyes shining as if it had encountered a powerful enemy.
In the Enlightenment Cup, it had been defeated by this green caterpillar.
It was infuriating.
The Feathered Spirit Snake slithered to the green caterpillar and touched its head.
Green caterpillar: (⊙_⊙)?
‘Why is it touching me?’
“Hiss! Hiss!” The Feathered Spirit Snake’s eyes emitted a provocative glow.
With a touch, the Feathered Spirit Snake seemed to be able to sense the powerful strength contained in the green caterpillar’s body.
Its perception seemed to be very powerful.
It sensed that after a few months, the green caterpillar had become much stronger!
“Huh?”
“Hiss!”
“Ssss…”
“Hiss…”
The two soul pets seemed to be communicating.
“Can anyone translate what they’re talking about? Why can soul pets of different species communicate without obstacles! I heard that there’s a soul pet language in university. I have to choose it when the time comes!” A student could not help but say.
After a while, the Feathered Spirit Snake returned to Lin Xi’s side.
Wang Che knew what the two were talking about.
Feathered Spirit Snake: “Little bug, you’re much stronger now.”
Green Caterpillar: “I can’t fly.”
Feathered Spirit Snake: “I mean, you’ve become stronger.”
Green Caterpillar: “I can’t fly.”
Feathered Spirit Snake: “…”
The second stage Feathered Spirit Snake already had the ability to fly in low altitudes.
However, it wasn’t a flying-type soul pet.
The Feathered Spirit Snake felt that it was very tiring to communicate with this little bug. It would find a chance to redeem itself in the future.
“Wang Che, I heard about it.” Lin Xi suddenly said, “It’s indeed very impressive to be able to do that. I hope you can awaken your martial soul this time.”
“Thank you.” Wang Che glanced at her.
This matter was probably referring to the situation of being first in the wilderness competition.
However, after the wilderness competition ended, other than the participants, the news was sealed.
Lin Xi could actually get information about it. Yes, her background was indeed very strong.
As for other news, it was hard to say if she knew or not.
Wang Che could feel a powerful energy fluctuation coming from Lin Xi.
It should be the power of a martial soul.
Thinking about it, Lin Xi’s martial soul should not be simple.
At this moment, the students gradually took their positions.
In the distance, three examiners walked over.
In the center of the arena, there were three large instruments used for the martial soul awakening test.
The first one was for testing.
They would place their hands on the sensor platform.
Sensing the martial soul, the martial soul’s form would be projected on the large screen above in the form of a holographic image.
The clearer the martial soul, the more perfect the martial soul’s sensation was, and the higher the score.
As for martial soul sensing, it was related to mental strength. The stronger the mental strength, the more perfect the sensation would be.
The second one was similar to the soul power testing device used to test soul pets. Walking up, one had to awaken the martial soul in their body.
This was the most important step.
It was a true awakening.
The equipment would determine the martial soul’s aptitude according to the soul power fluctuation caused by the awakening of the martial soul.
The stronger one’s aptitude, the faster they could absorb soul power and the faster their cultivation speed would be.
If it could not awaken on its own, then it could only rely on external soul power to awaken.
The third one was the grade reaction of the martial soul.
It was connected to the second channel.
When a martial soul awakened, the energy fluctuation and the flash of soul power would be immediately sensed by the device.
This would reveal the corresponding grade.
The awakening of a martial soul was an extremely important test.
It was also the last subject of the comprehensive test.
First, the principal of First High went on stage to speak, followed by the three examiners.
Every one of them was a Contract Soul Master above Level 60 and wore a formal black suit.
The scene looked very formal.
These were the West Peak Continent’s Martial Soul Research Department’s Official Contract Soul Masters.
Awakening the martial soul was a big deal.
If a new type of martial soul appeared, they would need at least three official Contract Soul Masters with great experience and knowledge to certify it.
They would give the points and also report to the headquarters about the martial soul. After the headquarters responded, the points given would be considered confirmed.
At the same time, when martial souls were awakened on the spot, sometimes, the equipment would also make mistakes. It required a powerful professional Contract Soul Master to switch to a manual test.
“Students, this year’s martial soul awakening test has officially begun.”
The chief examiner in the middle was an old man who looked to be at least sixty or seventy years old. He had a kind smile on his face and his expression was solemn as he patrolled the third-year students present. “According to the number in your comprehensive test, come up and awaken in succession. We will give the score for the martial soul awakening test on the spot. Students who need external help to awaken can just explain the situation to the examiner.”
The three examiners took the test at the same time.
There were also three areas at the scene. Each area required three instruments.
Because it was the three major high schools gathered together.
There was an examiner in each area.
If it was fast, it would finish in two to three hours.
As the examiner finished speaking, the students who could no longer contain their excitement walked up the stage.
According to the testing situation of the device, the marks given by the examiner would not be read out loud. They would only be told to the student himself and then recorded in the student’s file.
Of course, for most students, they could see rough data from the device when their martial souls awakened.
There were various scores recorded within the data.
As the first student went on stage, soon, low whispers began to spread among the students.
No loud noise was allowed at the scene, and they could only communicate in the group.
“In class one, the one with the best results should be Zhou Ge. The martial soul’s form has reached 82%. You can clearly see its appearance. It’s an ancient pine tree. Its grade is brilliant green. Its aptitude testing device has lit up by six bars. It has the Level 6 innate aptitude, six times the normal soul power absorption speed! It’s not bad in all aspects!”
“It’s here! The first Superb grade martial soul! It’s a modern generation weapon martial soul, an M-18 automatic pistol! Awesome! A modern generation firearm weapon is extremely rare! That’s Nanhu High School’s Shen Yue, he’s in the top ten of the Enlightenment Cup! I heard that his family runs a factory that specializes in producing basic parts for various firearms. His family background is very strong in Skyheart City!”
“The one from Xingyue High School has also appeared! Their first Superb grade martial soul! The blue light is always so dazzling! It’s a spirit martial soul, the Golden Striped Tiger found in West Peak Continent! It’s the king of the forest!”
“Legacy! There’s a Legacy grade martial soul in First High! It’s a spirit martial soul, the Water Spirit Kettle! F*ck, it’s that kid Xu Haifeng! The Water Spirit Kettle is an amazing water elemental spirit body! I’m dying of laughter… the martial soul’s form is actually only… 69%. What a waste of such a good martial soul. This fellow is really lazy normally. His innate aptitude is only at Level 7, but the Legacy martial soul’s innate aptitude is very high. This fellow usually doesn’t train his soul pet. The level of life contract isn’t high, otherwise, he would have at least a Level 8 or 9 aptitude.”
The various class groups erupted into discussion.
Occasionally, there would be waves of cheers and loud screams.
Purple Legacy martial souls were very rare in Skyheart City.
“So it’s the Water Spirit Kettle.” Wang Che nodded.
The kettle was an equipment martial soul.
However, if a spirit body was born in the kettle, the martial soul would be a spirit martial soul.
Like the Aladdin lamp, a small and cute water spirit would fly out of the kettle.
In reality, water spirits were also rare elemental soul pets.
However, it would usually be stored in various artifacts and not appear openly.
Xu Haifeng’s inherited martial soul was the first Legacy grade in First High.
It was very eye-catching.
Xu Haifeng slowly went down with a beaming expression.
His martial soul form’s score was not high, only 69 points. His aptitude was Level 7, which meant that he had 70 points.
The quality of the martial soul was the Legacy grade. On the basis of 30 points for Ordinary grade, every increase in grade would add 10 points.
That was 60 points. In total, it was 199 points.
The score was already very high.
