Soto City.
Leon led the group out of the Rose Hotel, thought for a moment, and decided to find a carriage first. The group then rode the carriage toward the outskirts of the city.
Zhu Zhuqing looked at Ah Yin with a hint of resentment. Aunt Ah Yin, you've truly become corrupted; otherwise, how could your kind self say such things?
Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu also looked awkward. Did they really have to publicly execute everyone, starting with the Administrator?
[Leon: Everyone, go prepare some tea and melon seeds. We're going outside the city to find an empty spot. I'll briefly Awaken my second Martial Soul, and then our gossip class for today will begin.]
[Everyone:???]
[Bibi Dong: A second Martial Soul?]
[Bo Saixi: How old are you? Are you still Awakening Martial Souls?]
[I am an Orphan: Opening again?]
[Liu Erlong: You might as well ask when he was ever closed.]
[Tang Yuehua: If it hasn't been closed, it's not being opened.]
[Zhang Lexuan: Could you please take a video and show us?]
[Ning Rongrong: Small issue!]
...Outside the city.
On a secluded patch of grass.
Leon sat cross-legged on the ground, saying excitedly in his heart:
"Awaken the second Martial Soul."
RUMBLE—!
Suddenly, a muffled clap of thunder sounded in the sky.
Dark clouds quickly gathered, and thunder rolled, creating a suffocating sense of oppression.
Zhu Zhuqing and the others stood nearby, watching Leon curiously, wondering what kind of Martial Soul his second Martial Soul would Awaken into.
Ling Yuan frowned and asked:
"What's going on? Why did the surroundings suddenly become overcast?"
Ah Yin and the others shook their heads.
Ning Rongrong took a photo of the sky with her Jade Mirror and posted it in the Group Chat.
[Ning Rongrong: Image. (Dark clouds, lightning, and thunder)]
Just as the group was confused, a golden light suddenly shone from Leon's body. It was so dazzling that everyone couldn't see clearly, and it even illuminated the previously overcast sky.
[Loves Eating Carrots: Huh?]
[Loves Eating Carrots: I think I remember now! When we were in Nuoding City, this strange weather and golden light appeared. So it was shining from Leon back then too!]
[Shadow Cat: Video 2:18.]
[Everyone:???]
[Bibi Dong: What is going on?]
[Tang Yuehua: Look closely, the man in the video is glowing.]
[Liu Erlong: How can Awakening a Martial Soul cause such a commotion, with lightning, thunder, and universal golden light?]
[Bo Saixi: The second Martial Soul Leon is about to Awaken must be very powerful. I have a feeling of a Divinity descending.]
[Call Me Her Majesty: Wow, it looks really powerful, huh?]
[Winter Cutie: Cheating King.]
Not long after.
As the golden light surrounding Leon began to dissipate, his figure finally appeared before everyone. He was Martial Soul possessed, clad in Silver Armor, holding a Three-Pointed, Double-Edged Halberd, and a vertical eye had appeared on his brow.
Everyone:???
Zhu Zhuqing and the others were also dumbfounded.
What kind of thing did he Awaken?
A Tool Martial Soul?
But something seems wrong. How did he grow an extra eye?
[Ning Rongrong: Image. (Leon Martial Soul possessed)]
[Everyone:???]
[Call Me Her Majesty: Woah woah woah?]
[Call Me Her Majesty: Leon, you bad guy, why did you learn from me and grow a third eye too?]
[Loves Eating Carrots: Huh?]
[Big Shadow Cat: What... Martial Soul did he Awaken?]
[Bo Saixi:???]
[Liu Erlong: Is it a Tool Martial Soul?]
[Bibi Dong: It doesn't look like it. It feels like a weapon that comes with the Martial Soul possession.]
[Dark Avenger: This is called a Body Spirit. A Body Spirit involves Awakening one's own body. Huo Yuhao's Martial Soul is a Spiritual Eye.]
[Ma Xiaotao: Little Ya seems to be right. There were no Body Spirits ten thousand years ago, but our world has them.]
[Zhang Lexuan: But Body Spirits don't have weapons! He also seems to have a phantom image on his body, like a Martial Soul possession.]
At this moment.
Leon was also excited.
Sure enough!
His current strength was finally enough to Awaken the Martial Soul he had hoped for in his heart.
Powerful!
[Leon: With handsome features and a majestic appearance, his ears reach his shoulders and his eyes shine bright. He wears a Three-Mountain Flying Phoenix Cap on his head, and a pale goose-yellow robe on his body. Gold-threaded boots line his Dragon-Coiled socks, and his jade belt is adorned with eight treasures. He carries a crescent-shaped slingshot at his waist and holds a Three-Pointed Double-Edged Spear in his hand. He once split Mount Tao with an axe to save his mother, and shot down the twin Phoenixes of Zongluo with his pellets. His renown for slaying eight monsters spread far, and he befriended the Seven Sages of Mount Mei. High-minded, he refused to acknowledge the Heavenly Family, and proud in nature, he returned to Divinity and lived in Guankou. Red City's Manifest Benevolence, Sacred and Heroic, his boundless transformations are called Erlang Shen.]
[Leon: The title for my Martial Soul is: Greatest Warrior God of Heaven. You may also call him Third-Eye Warrior God, Divine God Erlang, True Lord of Illustrious Sage, and so on.]
[Bibi Dong: I understand now. This Little Bastard Awakened a great God that exists in his heart across the Myriad Worlds!]
[Bo Saixi: So the weapon and the eye are accessories that come with this Martial Soul, just like the Little Monkey came with a Golden Cudgel?]
[Little Bird: That should be correct.]
[Hu Liena: Teacher, do Divine Rank Angel Spirits all come with an Angelic Sacred Sword?]
[Bibi Dong: Yes.]
[Xiao Xiao is the Cutest: Big Brother Leon is so handsome!]
[Bai Chenxiang: Flirt.]
At this moment.
The Little Monkey was also jumping and dancing excitedly. It recognized this Martial Soul; it had heard Leon talk about this Martial Soul before!
The Little Monkey jumped onto Leon's shoulder, chattering excitedly without stopping, and finally transformed directly into a streak of light and flew away.
Ning Rongrong stepped forward and asked, "Big Brother Leon, how powerful is this Martial Soul of yours?"
Zhu Zhuqing and the others were also full of curiosity.
Leon replied with a smile, "It is truly incredibly powerful. I'll explain it to you later. In short, my Martial Soul is also a Mutated Spirit, and it has reached the limit that this world can bear."
Having finished speaking.
Leon waved his hand casually, and the Three-Pointed, Double-Edged Halberd in his hand transformed into a fan. The third eye on his forehead hid itself, and the Martial Soul possession receded and vanished.
Xiao Wu asked curiously, "The Little Monkey was so excited, where did it go?"
Leon replied with a wry smile, "It thinks I'm still missing something, so it ran off to the Star Dou Great Forest to catch Soul Beasts for me."
[The group:???]
[Leon: The minor interlude of Martial Soul Awakening is over. I'm here to deliver the gossip I promised last time. Today, let's start with gossip that will make Shrek explode a hundredfold.]
[Leon: Xiao Tao, are you ready?]
[Ma Xiaotao:???]
Dou 2.
Shrek Academy.
Ma Xiaotao was also a bit confused.
Me?
Why are you asking me specifically? Aren't Zhang Lexuan and Little Ya here too?
Zhang Lexuan and Tang Ya also found it strange. Does this mean it has a lot to do with Ma Xiaotao?
[Leon: Xiao Tao, take a deep breath, relax. Feeling dizzy is normal.]
[Leon: As the saying goes, where there is a Crouching Dragon, there must be a Fledgling Phoenix. Aside from Chicken Leg Douluo Xuan Zi, the Grand Elder of the Holy Spirit Cult, Shrek Academy has another such individual.]
[Leon: His grandfather: High Priest of the Holy Spirit Cult. His grandmother: Supreme Sect Master of the Holy Spirit Cult. His uncle: Sect Master of the Holy Spirit Cult. His girlfriend: Vice Sect Master of the Holy Spirit Cult. His teacher: The boyfriend of the Supreme Sect Master of the Holy Spirit Cult. His Disciple: Holy Maiden of the Holy Spirit Cult. His Junior Brother: The World's Number One Necromancer who destroyed half the capital city.]
[Leon: I just have to ask, isn't that exciting?]
[Everyone:???]
