"Wang Qiang, awakened a Lesser Martial Soul, the Sky-Turning Rat!"
"Liu Lin, awakened an Intermediate Martial Soul, the Valley Giant Chicken!"
***
At Lin City No.2 High School, the once-a-semester Martial Soul Awakening Ceremony was underway.
In the senior year formation, Chen Fan watched the younger students who successfully awakened their Martial Souls for the first time, feeling a bit bitter inside.
"Sigh... If only I could succeed too!"
Over a decade ago, Chen Fan inexplicably crossed over to this world.
But the standard perks of a transmigrator, like an old man with a white beard or a system, he had none!
And the world he was in now was vastly different from the one he originally came from!
About three hundred years ago, a massive meteor streaked across the sky and struck Blue Star.
The immense power of the meteor broke through an ancient seal!
All over the world, a vast amount of soul power began to emerge.
From then on, humans could awaken Martial Souls and cultivate.
However, before humans could rejoice for long, a large number of Soul Beasts began to pour out from the breach!
Initially, facing the formidable army of Soul Beasts, humans were powerless to resist.
Yet, during the struggle against the Soul Beast army, people discovered that killing Soul Beasts yielded Soul Stones.
And Soul Stones could be absorbed and fused by humans.
Humans who fused with Soul Stones not only gained powerful skills but also unleashed even more terrifying power from their Martial Souls.
From then on, humanity finally had the means to contend with the Soul Beast army!
And human society entered the Martial Soul era, where everyone aspired to become a Martial Artist!
Through the continuous exploration of their predecessors, humans developed a comprehensive Martial Artist system.
However, to become a Martial Artist, one must first awaken a Martial Soul!
In this world, everyone starts systematically learning about Martial Souls from the first year of high school.
Until graduation in the third year, each student has five chances to awaken.
Chen Fan had already gone through four Martial Soul awakenings without success!
Today would be Chen Fan's fifth and final chance to awaken a Martial Soul!
In an era where almost everyone could awaken a Martial Soul, failing to do so meant struggling even at the lowest levels of society.
"Damn, did you bring me here just to mess with me like this?"
Chen Fan thought bitterly to himself.
Just as Chen Fan was lost in thought, a voice roared out.
"Chen Fan, why are you still standing there!
The first-year students are almost done, hurry up and get in line!"
Chen Fan looked at the person who spoke; it was his homeroom teacher, Li Mei!
Seeing Chen Fan still dazed, Li Mei grabbed his ear and said, somewhat exasperatedly,"Even if you awaken the lowest-grade Lesser Martial Soul, it's still something!"
Feeling the pain in his ear, Chen Fan quickly said,"Teacher Li, I'm going right away!"
With that, Chen Fan got up and ran towards the center of the Awakening Arena.
The other classmates in the class immediately started mocking.
"Hey, do you think Chen Fan will succeed this time?"
"Hard to say, even though he's failed four times, what if he gets lucky this last time?"
"Do you believe that?"
"I don't believe it!"
"Hahaha..."
Li Mei was already in a bad mood because of Chen Fan, and hearing the students' words made her even angrier.
"What are you laughing at, you actually have the nerve to laugh!
Chen Fan hasn't even awakened a Martial Soul, and his soul power is already 250 points!
It's been two years since you all awakened your Martial Souls in the first year, how many of you have soul power over 200 points?
And yet you still have the nerve to laugh! You are the worst class I've ever taught!"
Li Mei's words silenced many students in the class.
In fact, Chen Fan, who had failed four times to awaken a Martial Soul, was a genius with an initial soul power of 250 points!
Among them, the highest initial soul power was just over a hundred points!
***
Meanwhile, Chen Fan had reached the center of the Awakening Arena.
Having gone through the Martial Soul awakening process four times, he was quite familiar with it.
Chen Fan placed his hands on the Awakening Stone and closed his eyes.
Soon, the voice of the teacher presiding over the Martial Soul awakening reached his ears.
"Feel it with your heart... Feel the Martial Soul hidden within you, then awaken it!"
Just then, a mechanical voice sounded in Chen Fan's mind.
[Ding! Finally found the host, binding the Martial Soul System...]
[Ding, binding complete!]
"This... is this a system?"
Hearing this voice, Chen Fan was momentarily stunned.
But then he almost shouted out in excitement!
"Finally! I've been waiting for over ten years!"
At this moment, Chen Fan felt a sense of joy as if his long-awaited reward had finally arrived!
His transmigrator's perk had finally come through!
Immediately, a system panel appeared in Chen Fan's vision.
[Host: Chen Fan
Level: / (Non-Martial Artist)
Soul Power: 250 (+) (Every 10 Wealth Value points can increase soul power by 1 point!)
Martial Soul: /
Soul Stone: / (Every 1000 Wealth Value points can increase Soul Stone age by 1 year!)
Wealth Value: 50 (Based on the host's wealth, does not affect real-world finances!)]
Looking at the three slashes on the system panel, Chen Fan couldn't help but laugh wryly.
Right now, how was he any different from a "three-no product"?
Although this system seemed impressive, it didn't seem to help him awaken a Martial Soul!
We are "pawread.co𝑚", find us on google.
The system seemed to sense Chen Fan's disdain and responded,
[Ding, since the host has not yet awakened a Martial Soul!]
[This system will provide the host with two Martial Souls!]
At the same time, the Awakening Stone that Chen Fan was touching suddenly lit up.
This scene immediately drew the attention of everyone present.
Because the Awakening Stone lighting up meant a successful Martial Soul awakening.
Those who had been waiting to laugh at Chen Fan were now stunned.
"No way, did he really get lucky?"
Seeing this, Li Mei finally felt relieved.
"With Chen Fan's strong talent, he should at least awaken an Advanced Martial Soul!"
Li Mei thought to herself.
At this moment in the Awakening Arena, after the Awakening Stone lit up, it emitted a faint white glow!
Seeing this white light, Li Mei's expression changed; could she have been right?
Meanwhile, Chen Fan's classmates burst into laughter!
"Hahaha, it's actually the lowest-grade Lesser Martial Soul!"
"I thought he really got lucky!"
"But it's just a useless Martial Soul!"
However, before they could finish speaking, the previously white-glowing Awakening Stone dimmed!
The next moment, the dim Awakening Stone suddenly released a dazzling golden light!
An overwhelming aura of dominance emanated from Chen Fan's body, giving everyone a shiver from the depths of their souls!
Then, the Awakening Stone projected two Martial Soul shadows.
One was a Martial Soul emitting a gentle white light, resembling a small chicken!
The other was a Sacred Dragon Martial Soul, filled with dazzling golden light, impossible to look at directly!
Two Martial Souls, one white and one gold, shining together!
Everyone present stared at the two Martial Soul shadows, their mouths agape in astonishment!
"Incredible, it's the legendary Twin Martial Souls!"
"Heavens! I actually witnessed the awakening of Twin Martial Souls with my own eyes!"
"I wonder if this handsome guy has a girlfriend, mainly because I suddenly realized he's quite handsome!"
At this moment, the teacher in charge of the Martial Soul awakening was beaming with joy.
He never imagined he would personally preside over the awakening ceremony of a Twin Martial Soul genius in his lifetime.
If word got out, it would be an immense honor!
Before this, he had even thought Chen Fan was a failure who couldn't awaken a Martial Soul!
Chen Fan opened his eyes at this moment.
Looking at the two Martial Souls he had awakened, Chen Fan was also in shock.
"Twin Martial Souls? This system is incredible!"
