The Star Train's Journey Through the Heavens

Chapter 18: All Train Crew Members Awaken Their Martial Souls

Star Dome Train.

Pam was the first to greet the four returning passengers, and said to them with great enthusiasm, "Passengers are back. From now on, you can use the Boundary Anchor directly when returning to the train. The train's energy is now plentiful, so you don't need to conserve Pam's energy like before."

"Really? Then we'll go back to the train to rest every night and teleport away again at dawn." March 7th teased Pam.

"No! Even if there's plenty of energy, we can't waste it like this!" Pam immediately regretted her generosity.

Himeko poured a cup of coffee for each of the four people, and asked with some surprise, "Why are you back so soon? Did you find something unexpected?"

Meng Huaifeng picked up the coffee and smelled it curiously. It had a very rich aroma and smelled quite good.

But after glancing at the other three sitting upright, and seeing that there was no coffee in sight, Meng Huaifeng ultimately didn't dare to try it.

“Sister Ji Zi, isn’t there a strange martial soul cultivation system in this world? We’ve also successfully awakened our martial souls. We’ve come back to help you and Uncle Yang awaken your martial souls.” March 7th couldn’t contain himself and said, as if showing off a treasure.

"Oh, I see. It's rare that Little March is still thinking about Welt and me." Himeko chuckled happily.

"What are you saying? When have I ever not thought about everyone?" March 7th pouted.

On March 7th, six Awakening Stones were taken out and placed in the center of the carriage according to the instructions.

"Quickly, quick, Sister Ji Zi, Uncle Yang, who wants to go first?" March 7th asked impatiently.

"I'll go first." Himeko glanced at Welt and walked into the center of the awakening circle.

On March 7th, he summoned his Martial Soul and used it to inject imaginary energy into the six Awakening Stones.

Awakening a martial soul takes a few minutes. While waiting, Meng Huaifeng summoned his mobile phone martial soul and inputted energy into it.

As more and more energy was input, a spirit ring rose from beneath Meng Huaifeng's feet and quickly changed from white to yellow.

When the spirit ring appeared, Meng Huaifeng felt as if two energy interfaces had appeared in his martial soul: one to continue to enhance the strength of the martial soul, and the other to increase the age of the spirit ring.

Meng Huaifeng temporarily stopped increasing the age of his spirit rings and continued to improve the strength of his martial spirit.

Soon, the strength of the martial soul reached its limit once again and stopped increasing. After continuously inputting a large amount of energy, the second soul ring rose from Meng Huaifeng's feet, and the upper limit of the martial soul's strength was broken again.

This was repeated eight times, with eight yellow soul rings surrounding him. All the imaginary energy that Meng Huaifeng could mobilize had been inputted into his martial soul.

Meng Huaifeng tried to recover the energy from his martial soul. His eighth soul ring quietly shattered, but after being inputted again, it reformed.

This martial spirit has a kind of accompanying magical artifact feel to it. This thought flashed through Meng Huaifeng's mind.

Beast Martial Souls can also be seen as alternative amplification magic weapons. Incorporating the Martial Soul into a magic weapon feels perfectly natural, and it is even the kind of magic weapon that can grow stronger as its master becomes stronger.

Seeing Meng Huaifeng's actions, Xing also awakened his martial soul, golden light emanating from his chest, and soul rings rapidly rose beneath his feet.

Finally, Xing was enveloped in nine blood-red soul rings, making Meng Huaifeng extremely envious.

His total energy is only equivalent to that of a Contra Douluo, and he doesn't have enough energy left to upgrade his spirit ring configuration.

Ignoring Xing's smug look, Meng Huaifeng began to comprehend the skill information of the soul ring.

Soon, Himeko successfully awakened her martial soul, which was a cup of coffee, a food-type martial soul. Himeko seemed quite satisfied.

Next up is Walter.

Whether it was because Welt was stronger or because he was the former Herrscher of Reason, Welt discovered that he could freely control the changes in the energy that formed his Martial Soul!
Old Yang had a sudden inspiration and created a huge robot martial spirit for himself!
My dream came true, I'm so happy!
After Walter awakened his martial soul, March 7th didn't stop, immediately carrying Pam to the center of the magic circle. "Huh? Can I awaken my martial soul too, Pam?" Pam asked somewhat nervously.

No one knows Pam's origins; it is only speculated that he is the manifestation of destiny, the spirit of the Star Train.

"Why don't you try and see?" March 7th always does things first and thinks later, and immediately begins to awaken.

Meng Huaifeng stroked his chin, lost in thought.

The rules of this world favor humans; only humans, or at least those who have become human, can awaken a martial spirit.

Regardless of what Pam is, she is definitely not human, so Meng Huaifeng thinks it's unlikely.

Just as Meng Huaifeng had predicted, a few minutes later, the golden light dissipated, and Pam did not awaken her martial soul.

Although somewhat disappointing, it was within everyone's expectations.

Thus, everyone on the train awakened their martial spirit.

On March 7th, with the Six Phases of Ice in his Martial Soul, his ice control ability and casting speed have been slightly improved. With the addition of nine Soul Skills, it seems he can now change his class to an Ice Mage.

Star, the Martial Soul Heart of Destruction, slightly increases physical strength and adds extra destructive power to each attack.

Meng Huaifeng, with his Martial Soul Phone, possesses powerful auxiliary abilities; it seems he's the perfect candidate for the train crew's logistics role.

Dan Heng's martial soul, Azure Dragon, aside from regaining the ability to transform into a dragon, has not significantly improved his strength.

Himeko, Spirit Coffee, well, its biggest use is probably that the train crew no longer has to suffer from Himeko's hand-ground coffee!
Walter, the giant mecha of martial spirit, can only be said to have fulfilled his dream, but it didn't improve his strength at all.

Within minutes of Welt awakening his martial spirit, Himeko had already figured out its uses.

The spirit rings didn't need to be revealed or incantations; seven cups of coffee appeared on the coffee table.

"This is a refreshing coffee, please enjoy." Himeko looked at everyone expectantly.

While the others hesitated, Meng Huaifeng had already picked up a glass and taken a small sip.

The temperature was just right. Meng Huaifeng tilted his head back and drank it all. It was extremely smooth and mellow. At the same time, a minty coolness rushed into his brain. Meng Huaifeng instantly felt incredibly energetic, and his thinking speed increased several times over.

If I had this when I was in school, wouldn't I have gotten perfect scores in every subject?

No! Why did I only encounter such a miraculous object after graduation?
"It tastes great and is very effective!" Meng Huaifeng gave Ji Zi a thumbs up.

It was rare for someone to genuinely praise the taste of her coffee, and Himeko was in a great mood, which also greatly increased her affection for Meng Huaifeng.

Seeing that Meng Huaifeng was indeed alright, the others finally drank their coffee.

After tasting it, Himeko's eyes lit up with admiration. Now, the research speed of wormhole stabilization technology could be greatly improved.

"Danheng, everyone else is getting familiar with their martial souls, why aren't you?" Walter summoned his mecha martial soul, making modifications to what he was dissatisfied with, and asked the somewhat aloof Danheng with a strange look.

"I..." Dan Heng's expression was still somewhat conflicted.

"Danheng's martial soul is a blue dragon, but he doesn't seem happy about awakening it." March 7th glanced at Danheng, her tone tinged with worry.

　Thank you everyone for your votes! (heart emoji)
