Inside the empty wooden hall.
Dazzling light suddenly erupted from the deep blue crystal ball, illuminating the entire Spirit Sub-Hall. Su Yuntao, who had been filled with disappointment, was instantly struck with shock.
"How is this possible! Innate Full Soul Power? How can a trash Martial Soul like Blue Silver Grass produce Innate Full Soul Power?!"
On the Douluo Continent, people who could awaken a Martial Soul and possess Soul Power were few and far between. Innate Full Soul Power was even rarer—a feat that usually only appeared in powerful Martial Souls.
But Blue Silver Grass was famously a trash soul. Out of ten thousand Blue Silver Grass Soul Masters, you might not find a single one with Soul Power. For such a soul to manifest the absolute maximum amount of starting power simply defied logic.
What Su Yuntao was seeing completely overturned his understanding of the world!
"Uncle, what is Innate Full Soul Power?" Tang San couldn't help but ask.
"Innate Full Soul Power is the highest level of Soul Power a person can possess at the moment of awakening," Su Yuntao explained. "Generally speaking, the higher the innate power, the faster your future cultivation speed will be."
Su Yuntao looked at Tang San and sighed with immense regret. "However, even though you have full power, your soul is Blue Silver Grass. The potential of such a trash soul is too low; its growth capacity is pitifully weak. If your soul were anything else—even a stick or a sickle—I could... sigh..."
As a Level 26 Grand Soul Master, Su Yuntao's strength wasn't much on a continental scale, but in Nuoding City, he was a top-tier expert. Normally, he wouldn't bother with the thankless task of awakening ceremonies. However, he chose to do it for a specific reason: if he discovered a powerful talent and recruited them into the Spirit Hall, he would receive significant rewards from the Head Hall.
Tang San had the highest possible talent, but because his soul was Blue Silver Grass, he was practically useless as a combatant. Su Yuntao's hope for a reward vanished, leaving him only with a sense of pity.
"Uncle..." Tang San wanted to ask more, but Su Yuntao had no heart left for questions. He waved his hand listlessly.
"Step down. There is one more child left."
Tang San went silent, stepped out of the formation, and moved to the side.
"Child, it's your turn." Su Yuntao's eyes turned toward Lin Ye, a small spark of hope reigniting.
Both of them passed my test earlier. This boy's potential should be similar to the last one, right? The last one was Innate Full Soul Power; even if this one is a bit lower, he should at least have Level 7 or 8. As long as it's not Blue Silver Grass... even a sickle, a hoe, or a rake will do!
Under Su Yuntao's expectant gaze, Lin Ye walked calmly into the awakening formation.
Su Yuntao moved his hands again, sending six streaks of green light into the black stones. Instantly, golden specks of light flooded Lin Ye's body.
So warm, so comfortable!
Standing in the center of the formation, Lin Ye felt a strange, warm current flowing through him. It felt like soaking in a hot spring, causing him to relax and close his eyes involuntarily. Deep within his body, it felt as though something was struggling to emerge.
This child seems very promising too? Su Yuntao noted that the light continued to surge into Lin Ye for several minutes—even longer than it had for Tang San.
The last one was Blue Silver Grass. I can't be that unlucky twice, can I? Su Yuntao thought.
"Summon your Martial Soul!"
Nearly ten minutes later, as the light began to fade, Su Yuntao let out a low shout infused with Soul Power, snapping Lin Ye out of his trance.
Lin Ye opened his eyes, his brow slightly furrowed as if he were contemplating something. After a moment, he opened his left hand. With a flash of light, a pure white Begonia flower appeared in his palm.
"This is... a flower? A Begonia?"
Su Yuntao was momentarily stunned. It wasn't Blue Silver Grass, but a flower... what use was that? To serve as a decoration for a noble's house?
Another trash Martial Soul! Su Yuntao judged, his disappointment returning tenfold. He had never heard of a powerful Soul Master whose Martial Soul was a flower.
Determined that Lin Ye would likely have no Soul Power, he figured the boy had only passed the earlier test due to good physical fitness. Still, since the Blue Silver Grass kid had power, he might as well finish the test.
"Test your Soul Power," Su Yuntao sighed, handing the crystal ball to the pensive Lin Ye.
Lin Ye nodded calmly and placed his right hand on the crystal.
The moment his hand touched it, a powerful suction force erupted from the ball, instantly pulling Lin Ye's Nine Yang True Qi into the crystal. The ball immediately exploded with brilliant, blinding light.
Flash!
The radiant glow illuminated the entire hall, leaving Su Yuntao utterly dumbstruck.
The first was a Blue Silver Grass with Innate Full Soul Power. Now, a flower with Innate Full Soul Power.
For a moment, Su Yuntao didn't know if he was the luckiest man alive or the most cursed. To find two consecutive cases of Innate Full Soul Power in "Trash" souls—was the knowledge gathered by the Spirit Hall for centuries actually wrong?!
Lin Ye's "Begonia" soul seems simple, but in the Douluo world, certain flowers are legendary. Would you like me to translate the next chapter to see how Su Yuntao reacts?
