Chapter 2 Awakening Martial Soul
"It should be the Evil-Slaying Spear, or the Photon Spirit. Your parents had these two martial souls." Leng Qingning thought of An Lan's parents, a trace of nostalgia flashing in her eyes.
An Lan nodded thoughtfully.
Over the years, Leng Qingning and Le Lingzhao have not shied away from talking to him about their parents' past.
He knew that his parents had both died in battle at the Blood God Mountains.
Ten years ago, the Abyss was engulfed in the greatest upheaval in a thousand years. The Blood God Legion was overwhelmed and sought help from the Federal Council.
The Federation naturally wouldn't stand idly by and watch the Abyss break through the Blood God Mountain Range's defenses. At that time, the Federation's eight legions, as well as the War God Temple, the Spirit Pagoda, Shrek Academy, and the Tang Sect, all urgently dispatched a large number of powerful individuals to provide reinforcements. They fought against the Abyss for more than half a year before finally calming down the turmoil.
After the war, a group of powerful individuals, including An Lan's father An Ze, mother Shi Lan, Leng Qingning, and Le Lingzhao, were seconded to the Blood God Legion for stability maintenance. This secondment lasted for four years.
During these four years, Anze and Shilan fell in love and had him six years ago.
But not long after his birth, the abyss, which had been peaceful for four years, returned with renewed force, and both his parents perished, forever remaining in the Blood God Mountains.
After the war, the wounded Leng Qingning and Le Lingzhao retired from the Blood God Legion and adopted the orphans of their two friends, including him.
An Lan learned this from Leng Qingning and Le Lingzhao. As for the confidentiality agreement, they both said they didn't know about it, hadn't signed it, and didn't care.
"Photon Sprite..."
An Lan ignored her father's Demon-Slaying Spear and focused all her attention on her mother's martial spirit name.
Just by hearing the name, you can tell that this is definitely a top-tier martial soul.
Le Lingzhao picked up the thread and added, "Your mother was quite a figure back then. When she broke through to Soul Saint, her Martial Soul underwent a transformation, evolving from a Moon Fairy into a Photon Elf. When His Holiness the Holy Spirit first saw her, he was so amazed by her that he immediately wanted to take her as his disciple."
"Really?" An Lan was surprised, not expecting that her mother had a connection with the Holy Spirit Douluo.
Le Lingzhao nodded and continued, "But she rejected me."
Looking back, Yue Lingzhao couldn't help but sigh.
Ya Li, the number one beauty on the mainland, was an absolute big shot to them in their youth.
Although the Holy Spirit Douluo is only level 98, no one doubts her judgment.
Shi Lan definitely has a limit, and is much stronger than she was before she met An Lan.
"Alright, prepare to awaken your martial soul." Leng Qingning's voice rang out at the right moment. She pointed to the awakening platform, "The deceased are gone. Your legend will begin here."
An Lan stood in the center of the awakening platform, her posture as upright as a pine tree: "Let's begin."
Leng Qingning nodded, raising her jade hand to activate the awakening array, but unexpectedly, her wrist was suddenly grabbed.
Le Lingzhao blinked her clear eyes and said matter-of-factly, "I came all the way back from Heaven Dou City just to help Xiao Anlan awaken her martial soul. You wouldn't even try to take this from me, would you?"
"Alright, it's up to you." Leng Qing looked at her rather childish friend in front of her, shook her head helplessly, and silently stepped aside.
In the battle against the Blood God Legion, all their friends who went with them perished, and only the two of them returned.
The two of them raised their precious disciple together. When the Phoenix Clan was helpless against her injuries, she had to ask Angel Douluo for help and use the Angel Clan's artifact, although it was of little use.
In short, what could she do? She could only spoil her own dear daughter.
Le Lingzhao walked briskly to where Leng Qingning had just stood, nervously rubbing her hands together: "Little Anlan, your master is about to begin."
"Let's begin." An Lan looked up at her.
The person in front of him was surrounded by holy golden soul power, appearing sacred and otherworldly, yet there was a hint of unease in his expression that was completely inconsistent with his status as a powerful figure. He gently comforted him, "Second Master, you are a Super Douluo. It's just a matter of awakening a martial soul. It's nothing."
Looking at An Lan, who seemed completely at ease and not worried at all about awakening a useless martial soul, Le Lingzhao felt inexplicably annoyed.
Both the Evil-Slaying Spear and the Photon Elf are top-tier martial souls. According to the laws of martial soul inheritance, the probability of An Lan awakening a useless martial soul is extremely low.
Doesn't she know all this? Who is she so nervous about? That heartless little brat.
What bothered her even more was that An Lan's words "Super Douluo" sounded rather jarring.
She was indeed just a Super Douluo, but she knew that the "Super Douluo" An Lan mentioned was not the same as her Super Douluo.
She didn't want to show off to An Lan—"Your teacher is a level 98 Super Douluo, a four-word Battle Armor Master, on the same level as the Heavenly Phoenix Douluo; your Grandmaster is a level 99 Demigod, a four-word Battle Armor Master, slightly stronger than me."
That's too deliberate; it won't give her the emotional value she wants.
In short, Le Lingzhao was so angry that she wished some clueless person would come and give her a good beating.
"Okay, I'll begin."
Le Lingzhao suppressed her emotions and didn't dare to delay the important matter.
With a gentle wave of her jade hand, a golden ball of soul power exploded, instantly engulfing the entire awakening room with sacred soul power.
The awakening array on the platform was also activated, and countless runes lit up one by one, their golden light flowing around them, creating an extremely mysterious effect.
There is basically no danger in awakening a martial soul. Even if Yue Lingzhao personally takes action, there is no danger whatsoever, even if only a great soul master presides over the awakening ceremony.
The most representative example on the mainland is the famous "Blind Douluo" Su Yuntao.
After the magic circle was activated, the host only needed to wait quietly. Kele Lingzhao still stared nervously at An Lan in the center of the awakening platform.
Leng Qingning, standing to the side, did the same, her fists clenched tightly, her gaze never leaving the boy.
Like Le Lingzhao, Leng Qingning, who witnessed An Lan grow from a babbling infant to a six-year-old boy, had feelings for him that had long surpassed those of an ordinary teacher and student, and were almost like those of close relatives.
Before his martial soul awakened, An Lan was just an ordinary child. But once awakened, his body would develop rapidly under the nourishment of his soul power, just like the "Ladybug" Ma Hongjun, who was already fully developed at the age of eleven or twelve.
In the past, when they didn't want to meditate or cultivate, they could hold little Anlan in their arms as a pillow when they wanted to sleep.
But the next time we can be this close, we'll have to wait until he's an adult.
That is why the two four-word battle armor masters who stand at the pinnacle of the continent are so concerned about what is just an ordinary martial soul awakening ceremony.
On the Awakening Platform, An Lan felt a warm current rushing through her body, and the most primal power within her body, like a giant dragon that had been sleeping for countless ages, suddenly awakened!
In an instant, a crimson beam of light burst forth from the body and shot straight into the sky.
The beam of light, carrying a chilling killing intent, instantly pierced through the top of the Spirit Pagoda, soaring into the heavens and staining half the city's sky red.
The entire city of Shangling was instantly drawn to this astonishing pillar of light.
Outside the Spirit Pagoda, countless children waiting in line to awaken were terrified by the killing intent contained in the pillar of light, their legs went weak, and they collapsed to the ground.
