In the Canglan Continent, if you wanted to be a warrior, you had to awaken your own Martial Soul. Only through the Martial Soul could you communicate with heaven and earth, absorb Spiritual Qi, and practice.
There were all kinds of Martial Souls. They were divided into four levels, namely Heaven, Earth, Xuan, and Huang. Each level was divided into 10 grades.
The higher one's Martial Soul was, the faster one's cultivation speed, ability, and potential would be, and the higher their chances of becoming an expert would be.
At this moment, in Waterside City, Luo River Kingdom, the Qin Family was holding a Martial Soul awakening ceremony.
He saw a handsome, proud-looking disciple sitting cross-legged on a pitch-black altar. Below the altar, there were many Qin clan disciples and elders.
This disciple was called Qin Changkong, the son of the Great Elder of the Qin Family. In the Qin Family, he was a genius disciple second only to the young master of the Qin Family, Qin Nan.
It was because of this that the disciples and elders from all over the place had a hint of expectation on their faces.
At this time, the dark altar began to operate. Wisps of white light emitted from it, as if it were a dream, as if it had turned into huge snakes. They drilled into Qin Changkong's body, making it visible to the naked eye and constantly circulating in his body.
Roar!
All of a sudden, a majestic roar of a beast rang out from Qin Changkong's body.
On the back of Qin Changkong's body, yellow lights immediately emerged. When five yellow lights appeared, a fierce and ferocious shadow of a giant white tiger rose up like the king of all beasts. It gave off a fierce aura.
All the elders and disciples present felt a huge sense of oppression at this moment.
"This is..." The elder, who was hosting the ceremony, was stunned for a moment and immediately reacted. He shouted with great excitement, "Five yellow lights! Five yellow lights! This is a Rank 5 Yellow Class Martial Soul! A Rank 5 Yellow Class Beast Martial Soul!"
This sentence was like a clap of thunder, throwing it into the crowd, causing the faces of all the disciples and elders to explode.
"What? A Rank 5 Yellow Class Martial Soul?"
"Oh my god, a top genius has appeared in our Qin Family this time!"
"..."
Everyone's face was full of shock. They didn't expect this result at all.
The Martial Soul of the fifth grade of the Yellow Class was a top genius in the entire Waterside City. It was rare for it to appear once every three years. Moreover, anyone who had a Martial Soul above the fifth grade of the Yellow Class would have limitless achievements in the future.
They had thought that Qin Changkong could only awaken a fourth-grade Yellow Class Martial Soul at most.
A look of ecstasy appeared on Qin Changkong's face. He had never expected that he could awaken a Rank 5 Yellow Class Martial Soul.
Seeing the shocked gazes of all the disciples and elders present, Qin Changkong couldn't help but feel a strong sense of pride in his heart. His gaze swept across the crowd and landed on an ordinary-looking disciple. His eyes were filled with provocation.
This disciple was none other than the young master of the Qin family, the number one genius of the Qin family, Qin Nan.
"Okay, next, Qin Nan!" The hosting elder quickly reacted and immediately shouted, with a trace of strong expectation in his eyes.
Now that a top genius like Qin Changkong had appeared, given Qin Nan's talent, the Martial Soul he awakened would definitely not be inferior to Qin Changkong's.
If that was the case, with two top geniuses, the future development of the Qin family would not be small.
Sure enough, when the hosting elder shouted this name, all the shocked disciples and elders looked at the ordinary-looking young man in unison. Their eyes were full of expectation, which even exceeded that of Qin Changkong.
Qin Nan was not only a member of the Qin Family, but also a legend in Waterside City.
Qin Nan was the son of the head of the Qin family. He was born when he was young. He studied literature when he was six. When he was eight, he moved to Linshui City. When he was nine, he abandoned his literary and practiced martial arts. When he was ten, he practiced boxing. When he was eleven, he hunted tigers with his bare hands. When he was twelve, he practiced knives. When he was thirteen, he mastered ten kinds of martial arts. When he was fourteen, he was struck by lightning and was not injured at all. Until he was sixteen, he created his own saber skills and listed them as middle-class martial arts skills, which shocked Linshui City.
There was once an expert whose cultivation had reached the Martial King Realm. After hearing about Qin Nan's deeds, he immediately confirmed, "The talent this boy has displayed is extraordinary. The Martial Soul that he has awakened must be at the fifth level of the Yellow Realm, or even beyond the fifth level of the Yellow Realm. His future achievements must be extraordinary."
The Martial King's words were very effective. Before Qin Nan awakened his Martial Soul, he was crowned as the top genius of Waterside City.
He saw that Qin Nan was wearing a black robe, with his slightly pale skin. It seemed that he had just recovered from a serious illness. Under everyone's gaze, his face was very calm. He was neither arrogant nor impatient as he walked to the altar.
"Hu, this day has finally arrived..."
Qin Nan thought to himself and took a deep breath. Ignoring everyone's gaze, he sat cross-legged with his eyes closed.
Wisps of white light floated out from the bottom of the altar and drilled into Qin Nan's body.
At this time, when the disciples and elders around saw Qin Nan enter the state, they immediately became excited.
"I have an intuition that the Martial Soul awakened by Young Master Qin Nan must be extraordinary!"
"That's right. Young master Qin Changkong has awakened a Martial Soul of the fifth grade of the Yellow Class. Young master Qin Nan's talent is higher than his, so he must be even more talented!"
"Hiss, a Martial Soul that exceeds the fifth grade of the Yellow Class has never appeared in the history of our Qin Family."
"Shut up, all of you. Don't disturb Young Master Qin Nan. If anything happens, can all of you bear the responsibility?"
"..."
The atmosphere was extremely hot. In addition to the admiration of the disciples of the young generation, even the elders were full of praise and were full of expectations.
However, when Qin Changkong saw this scene, the joy and pride that had awakened a fifth-grade Yellow Class Martial Soul were instantly washed away. His expression was extremely ugly.
"Humph, the Martial Soul is destined by heaven. Everything else can't be counted." Qin Changkong said coldly, "Do you really think that the Martial Soul of a Rank 5 Yellow Class Martial Soul is the same as any other Martial Soul? Can it be awakened if you want to? Otherwise, the Martial Soul awakened by Young Lord Qin Nan will only be at Rank 2 Yellow Class!"
As soon as he said this, the eyes of the surrounding disciples and elders looked at him with a little disdain.
However, these disciples and elders didn't say anything. After all, Qin Changkong was a genius with a Martial Soul of the fifth grade of the Yellow Class. His status was not to be trifled with.
Qin Changkong was pissed off by everyone's disdainful eyes, but he calmed down a lot. Qin Nan's talent had been there since he was a child, and even the Martial King Realm was amazed. The Martial Soul he had awakened could not be a Rank 3 Yellow Class Martial Soul.
Thinking of this, Qin Changkong's eyes were fixed on the altar.
"Qin Nan, you must awaken a Martial Soul that is lower than Rank 5 Yellow Class. At the very least, you can't awaken a Martial Soul that is higher than Rank 5 Yellow Class..."
Qin Changkong couldn't help but curse in his heart.
At this time, more and more white light floated out from above the altar.
Qin Nan, who was sitting cross-legged on the altar, blushed slightly under the baptism of the white light. A sharp buzzing sound rang out from his slightly thin body.
All the people present stopped breathing almost at the same time!
With a boom, a yellow light suddenly rose from Qin Nan's body. In the nervous eyes of all the people present, the yellow light rose and stopped abruptly. Then, a big saber wrapped in flames slowly emerged from the yellow light.
Almost at this moment, all the disciples and elders were stunned.
A yellow light? A first-grade Yellow Class Martial Soul? The lowest level? How was that possible?
Even Qin Changkong, who had been cursing before, was shocked and stunned. He had never thought that the top genius of Waterside City would only awaken a first-grade Yellow Class Martial Soul, the most useless Martial Soul!
Qin Nan sat cross-legged on the altar and slowly opened his eyes. He saw all the dull expressions on everyone's faces.
"Redfire Saber, a Rank 1 Yellow Class Martial Soul..."
Qin Nan muttered to himself. With a stir of his mind, he retrieved the Redfire Saber that was floating on his back. He did not show any sadness or despair because he had awakened a useless Martial Soul. Instead, there was a hint of joy in the corners of his eyes. However, this joy was quickly concealed by him.
