 Battle Spirit Awakening

Tang Wu Lin stood nervously in the middle of the Awakening Chamber with his eyes darting all over the room, after all, he was only six years old. Without a parent accompanying him in this strange and exciting environment, how could his mind be serene?

Right at that moment, a gentle white light shone from the Soul Master’s hands and attracted his attention.

That white light, could it be the fabled spirit power that only Spirit Masters possess?

While under his astonished gaze, the Soul Master raised his right arm slightly. The white light vibrated before flying off towards the sky and blossoming into fireworks that illuminated the Awakening Chamber with its splendor.

Starting from the ceiling, the inscription lines filled with light as it moved towards the walls. It was as if it possessed a strong and revitalizing energy, as well as a life of its own. The lines kept lighting up until they converged below Tang Wu Lin’s feet.

A comfortably numbing energy crept up his legs before entering his body from his heart. Tang Wu Lin’s body couldn’t help but tremble as he struggled to hold on. It felt as if his body was being electrocuted.

Everything blurred before his eyes, and an unclear image unceasingly flickered within his mind. He wanted a clear look at it, but he could only feel its flowing shadows. In the end, he was able to see it, but he couldn’t remember what it was.

From the view of the Soul Master, Tang Wu Lin’s body was already being enveloped in the light, and in turn, was releasing its own light. Within this ancient traditional ceremony, his battle spirit had been awakened.

“Ah——!” Tang Wu Lin suddenly screamed, causing the Soul Master to jump in fright. An ordinary child usually wouldn’t feel too much during their Awakening, but an extremely low number of them would experience intense pain due to their weak bodies being unable to bear the energy.

The Soul Master’s body disappeared in a flash and appeared in front of Tang Wu Lin. In case the situation truly did take a turn for the worse, he would immediately stop the ceremony and ensure Tang Wu Lin’s safety.

After he got close, he was astonished to see that some golden lines were flickering on Tang Wu Lin’s forehead. Afterwards, those golden lines began to spread to his four limbs, creating a network of golden lines.

What kind of battle spirit was this? This Soul Master was extremely experienced; he had awakened thousands and tens of thousands of children. Yet, this was the first time he had seen the situation that was occurring in Tang Wu Lin’s body.

A faint energy undulated as it was emitted from Tang Wu Lin’s body. This energy originated from his lower abdomen, the most common place for spirit power to appear from. Although the energy was feeble, its existence was undoubtedly real.

The Soul Master was pleasantly surprised, this was a battle spirit with spirit power! Most of the time, he could conduct the ceremony for days without encountering a child with spirit power. It would seem that today’s luck was pretty good. The only question was: what was his battle spirit?

The previous golden lines from before had already disappeared without a trace, as if they had never existed at all. Tang Wu Lin seemed to be enduring an immense pain as his eyes were tightly closed. He slowly raised his right arm.

The hollow of his palm faced upwards, and a pale blue light emitted from it. In his hands appeared a small light blue grass that quietly rotated and extended in his hand. With a delicate and soft sway, an exceptionally feeble energy fluctuated out.

“Bluesilver Grass?” The Soul Master’s voice exuded disappointment, but it was once again substituted with amazement in a moment. He had seen the Bluesilver Grass battle spirit so many times before, this was a completely ordinary battle spirit! Bluesilver Grass was so common that it covered the whole Douluo Continent as well as the Star Luo Continent and Sky Dou Continent. Even the lawn of Red Mountain Academy was covered in Bluesilver Grass. How could this type of trash battle spirit give birth to spirit power?

So painful! It felt as if Tang Wu Lin’s body was being ripped to shreds.

His body became limp and numb to the point of being nearly comfortable, as that gentle energy continued to be poured into his body. However, an intense heat quickly bubbled forth from the hundreds of bones of his four limbs. The heat wrecked havoc on his body, making him feel like he had a bloated stomach that was about to burst. Under this pain, he was unable to breathe.

His whole body felt as if it was being ripped apart. Bone, muscle and flesh. There wasn’t a single aspect spared from the pain.

After what seemed like a very, very long time, this fit of pain gradually dissipated. Afterwards he felt a warm thread from the hollow of his palm, Tang Wu Lin opened his eyes.

A small light blue grass, verdant and lush, was undulating in the palm of his hand.‘Bluesilver Grass?’

Although Tang Wu Lin was young, he clearly remembered what he was doing at that moment. Immediately after waking up to reality, he said, “Bluesilver Grass? This is my battle spirit?”

Even though he hadn’t properly studied spirit beasts before, he still had some common knowledge. Naturally, he knew that Bluesilver Grass was a type of trash battle spirit. Furthermore, it was the worst trash of them all.

“En. It is. This is your battle spirit.” The Soul Master said so with a smile, yet his eyes couldn’t help but reveal a trace of pity.

Possessing spirit power was definitely a good thing, but if his battle spirit was Bluesilver Grass…

Tang Wu Lin’s lips softly quivered, and an intense torrent of sadness attacked his tiny heart. After anticipating for so long, it turned out that he actually had a trash battle spirit.

“Child, don’t be sad. You possess spirit power.” The Soul Master hastily said.

“I, I have spirit power?” Tang Wu Lin met his words with a look of astonishment.

The Soul Master nodded in response. “After I tested it, you actually have rank 3 innate spirit power. Although it can’t be considered amazing, it still means that you possess spirit power. As long as you put in great effort, then you will be able to become a Spirit Master too!”

Tang Wu Lin foolishly stared. “But, but my battle spirit is Bluesilver Grass…”

The Soul Master laughed. “Have you ever heard the tale of the Tang Sect? The founding patriarch of the Tang Sect’s battle spirit was actually the Bluesilver Grass! He relied on this battle spirit that other deemed as trash to rebuke the Heavens and Earth and defeated the wicked Spirit Hall twenty thousand years ago.”

Tang Wu Lin blinked in surprise. How could he have never heard of the tale of the Tang Sect’s founding patriarch? After all, the legend of the almighty masters of the Tang Sect and Soul Pagoda were the most widespread legends on the continent as well as the most universally appreciated.

“But wasn’t the Tang Sect’s founding patriarch’s battle spirit the Bluesilver Emperor?” Tang Wu Lin earnestly asked.

“Eh…” The Soul Master was somewhat embarrassed. Clearly, this little guy wasn’t so easy to fool. “The Bluesilver Emperor is the equivalent of an evolved Bluesilver Grass. If you wish to become a Spirit Master, then you must put in your greatest effort.”

Tang Wu Lin bit his lip. “Thank you, Lord Soul Master.”
