Douluo Continent: The Second Prince of Xingluo Intercepts the Zhu Sisters

Chapter 1 Reborn as the Second Prince of Xingluo, Awakening the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger

The Imperial Palace of the Star Luo Empire.

Under the cover of dark clouds, the sky turned gray.

Amidst thunder and lightning, Dai Tian stared straight up at the sky.

"Mother, if you are watching over me from heaven, please bless me to awaken a good martial soul."

"When I grow up, I will definitely get justice for you."

Dai Tian murmured, a hint of melancholy in his eyes.

Dai Tian transmigrated to this world six years ago and became the obscure second prince of the Dai family in the Star Luo Empire.

His mother died in childbirth six years ago when he was born.

Born to a maid, Dai Tian received no attention from a young age. Even as the second prince, his treatment was far inferior to that of the other princes.

"Brother Tian, ​​are you missing Mom again?"

A petite, adorable black-haired girl in a little dress stumbled up to Dai Tian. Seeing Dai Tian's sadness, for some reason, she also became unhappy.

"Hmm... she didn't have to leave this world. This world lacks something called justice."

"But to get justice, some power is needed. So, I need great power."

Dai Tian's face was somewhat pale, and due to excessive force, bright red blood seeped out from between his fingers.

Dignity resides only on the edge of a sword. To gain dignity in this world, one must possess even greater power!

Without power, even self-preservation is a problem, let alone seeking justice.

"Dai Tian, ​​don't worry. You'll definitely be able to awaken a powerful White Tiger Martial Soul. If Zhu Qing also awakens a decent Martial Soul, maybe she can be your fiancée." Zhu Zhuyun walked over, grabbed Dai Tian's arm, tore off a corner of her dress, and carefully bandaged Dai Tian's arm.

"Sister, what nonsense are you talking about? If you keep spouting nonsense, I won't talk to you anymore." Zhu Zhuqing stomped her foot cutely, crossed her arms, and looked angry. But she couldn't help but glance at Dai Tian out of the corner of her eye.

Zhu Zhuqing has not yet awakened her martial soul, and the two sisters have not yet become estranged; they are still inseparable.

However, Dai Tian knew that as they grew up, they would gradually drift away from the Star Luo Empire's succession system.

……

The next day.

The Imperial Palace, the Hall of Awakening.

Emperor Dai Long of Xingluo sat at the head and tail of the table, with Empress Zhu Qingqing and the eldest prince Davis beside him.

One by one, members of the royal family entered the awakening magic circle.

Born into royalty, with parents of good aptitude, his innate soul power was unlikely to be too bad, no matter how poor it was.

"They're all so-so. I wonder how much innate soul power that guy can achieve," Davis said dismissively. The only one he truly cared about was his younger brother. With innate soul power at level nine, he could potentially threaten his existence. As for the others, he didn't care.

"The prince who's reached the age to awaken his martial soul this year is Mu Bai, right? I wonder if this kid's talent can catch up with Weiss," Dai Long asked expectantly. He attends the royal family's martial soul awakening ceremony every year. He really hopes that the royal family can produce a few geniuses, especially his own offspring.

"Dai Tian. He's that woman's child," Empress Zhu Qingqing reminded her. Back then, Dai Long, drunk, had slept with a maid. And she became pregnant after just one time.

"Oh right. I almost forgot."

Dai Long had never paid any attention to the child born to a maid. He didn't believe that an ordinary maid could give birth to any noble bloodline. Even if the White Tiger Martial Soul had awakened, the innate soul power couldn't possibly be high.

"Dai Mubai, Martial Soul White Tiger, Innate Soul Power Level Nine..." The royal elder in charge of awakening the Martial Soul shouted excitedly.

"As expected of my good son. His innate soul power is at level nine, almost the same as Weiss."

"It seems the second in line to the throne has been decided. The position of Crown Prince is now a contest between Weiss and Mubai."

Dai Long was very happy. A level nine innate soul power—such talent was considered quite good even across the entire continent.

Zhu Qingqing was also very happy. Regardless of whether Davis or Dai Mubai ultimately won, it would still be her child. Her future position was unshakeable.

"Next up, Dai Tian."

As Dai Tian stepped into the awakening array, he couldn't help but feel nervous, and his heart suddenly started beating much faster.

"Don't be nervous, close your eyes." The old man had been awakening the martial spirit of the royal children for many years, so he naturally saw through the situation and couldn't help but comfort them.

Extend your right hand.

Dai Tian responded.

As soul power was injected, Dai Tian felt as if something was surging out of his body.

The next moment, an evil black aura enveloped Dai Tian's entire body, and a black tiger appeared behind him.

It was a giant tiger, entirely black. Unlike ordinary tiger-type spirit beasts, the black tiger's tail stood upright, with a barb at the very tip gleaming with a sinister light.

This is a top-tier soul beast, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger?

Dai Tian was shocked.

"Dai Tian, ​​Martial Soul Black Tiger, Innate Full Soul Power."

Shock! When the old man uttered the words "innate full soul power," the entire audience fell into an eerie silence, all staring at Dai Tian in astonishment.

Dai Long, who was about to leave immediately after seeing Dai Mubai awaken his martial soul, looked at Dai Tian in surprise.

It seems like the Dai family hasn't had a person with innate full soul power for hundreds of years!

"Innate full soul power? But why would it appear on him?" Dai Long's face showed a mixture of excitement and disappointment.

If it were Davis or Dai Mubai who awakened innate full soul power, the position of crown prince could almost be declared immediately. No one would be willing to let a genius with innate full soul power engage in cutthroat competition.

But what is Dai Tian? The son of a maid. Most importantly, the martial soul Dai Tian awakened wasn't the Dai family's inherited White Tiger martial soul, but a black tiger. It seems this is a mutation of the White Tiger martial soul.

The White Tiger is already a top-tier tiger-type martial soul; mutation is very likely to make it weaker rather than stronger.

"So what if you have innate full soul power? How can the Black Tiger Martial Soul compare to the noble White Tiger Martial Soul? The White Tiger has divine beast blood." Dai Mubai said unhappily, seeing that everyone's attention was drawn to Dai Tian. He should be the protagonist today.

"Exactly. The powerful White Tiger Martial Soul has mutated into a weak Martial Soul, so even if the innate soul power is high, it's useless." Davis also took the opportunity to belittle Dai Tian.

He didn't want Dai Tian to be granted the qualification to compete with him for the throne. The innate full soul power—this talent made him slightly uneasy. He was somewhat jealous; how wonderful it would be if he were the one who awakened innate full soul power!

How could someone born to a maidservant like Dai Tian have such good luck?

"From now on, the Second Prince's cultivation resources will be on par with those of Weiss and Mubai. However, Dai Tian's awakened Black Tiger Martial Soul does not meet the requirements for becoming the heir to the throne..." Dai Long said calmly, looking at Dai Tian.

After saying that, Dai Long left without another word.

Recommended book, very good.
