Douluo Continent: Reincarnated as the Rock King Emperor, Wandering the Mortal World

Chapter 97: This sword is nameless; it was a gift from my master.

After saying this, Huo Wu instantly completed the Martial Soul Possession.

Her martial spirit is her own shadow, which possesses the fire attribute and is called the Fire Shadow!

According to Zhong Li's previous theory, the main body martial soul is a certain organ of the body, or it is the body itself.

The shadow, however, clearly does not meet this requirement.

But a shadow is indeed a part of oneself...

Upon hearing this, the old man hesitated, then fell silent.

Zhong Li frowned, crossed his arms with his left hand, and stroked his chin with his right hand, lost in thought.

He knew a little about Huo Wu's situation, but whether hers could be considered a true martial soul was something he really needed to consider.

"From a purely rational perspective, a shadow shouldn't be considered a physical spirit, yet it is indeed a part of the body."

"Miss Fire Dance, may I ask you a question?"

Seeing that Zhongli was paying attention to her and even calling her "Miss," Huo Wu was overjoyed and quickly nodded, saying, "Your Majesty, God of War, please ask. As long as I know the answer!"

"The problem isn't difficult; it's within yourself."

Huo Wu's beautiful eyes were filled with doubt. What about herself?

"You want to know whether your own martial soul is your original martial soul, so you can move closer to a second martial soul awakening, right?"

"right!"

Huo Wu answered without hesitation.

She had thought about this issue before, especially when Zhong Li said that the original martial soul could awaken a second time.

Is the shadow considered a physical martial soul?

After receiving the accurate answer, Zhong Li nodded and said, "Miss Huo Wu, the second awakening of your original martial soul is difficult, extremely difficult!"

Zhongli wasn't just trying to fool Huowu with those words.

Even if a systematic method for a second awakening is developed in later generations, it will still be extremely difficult.

The probability of survival is extremely low.

Those who survived were naturally incredibly powerful, yet somewhat eccentric...

That kind of suffering shaped their character; only a few were unaffected by it.

"Your Majesty, no matter how difficult it may be, I am willing to try if it is possible."

"You'll die."

"..."

"Your Majesty, God of War, please stop! Huo Wu's martial soul could never be her original martial soul!"

The old man panicked; this was his own granddaughter!

Huo Wu's talent is extremely high, even higher than his grandson Huo Wushuang. If he were to try and get that second awakening and lose it... he would have nowhere to cry.

Besides, Huo Wu is different from those Soul Masters with their own Martial Soul. Her combat strength is not low. If she continues to develop steadily, she can still become a strong person.

There's no need to take the risk!

Huo Wu was stunned. At just over twenty years old, she was slightly shaken when she heard the word "death".

Even if one could face death directly in a life-or-death situation, it wouldn't be appropriate for this moment.

"I……"

For a moment, Huo Wu hesitated.

On the stage, after hearing these words, Chi Yu gritted her teeth, clenched her fists, and whispered, "Master, I will definitely complete the second awakening of my martial soul!"

"Only then will I have lived up to your expectations, and those two...and one immortal herb!"

Chi Yu's voice wasn't loud, so only Zhong Li heard it. As for the others, their eyes were still on Huo Wu.

Zhongli glanced at Chiyu with gentle eyes, then shook his head. He had no ulterior motives for saving Chiyu.

Cultivating strong individuals?

No.

He simply hopes that the people around him have the ability to take care of themselves.

We must not repeat the same mistake.

"I wish to buy osmanthus blossoms and share wine with you..."

"King Dust...has passed away..."

Thinking of his old friends, Zhong Li felt a pang of sadness; to put it bluntly, he was a little emotional...

The atmosphere suddenly became somewhat melancholic, especially Zhong Li's expression.

Most of the people present were old foxes, and it wasn't hard to tell from Zhongli's expression that he was reminiscing about old friends.

Adding that to what happened before... he'd die!

Thinking about it that way, could it be someone he knew who died during their second awakening...?

My scalp tingled; Zhong Li's power was no accident!

The old man beside Huo Wu panicked even more upon seeing this!

"Fire Dance, promise Grandpa, don't try it, you absolutely mustn't try it!"

"You're a genius. You've reached level thirty-eight at such a young age. In a year or two at most, you'll break through to the Soul Master level..."

"Furthermore, even if your Shadow Martial Soul is a Body Martial Soul, it's different from other Body Martial Souls; it possesses powerful combat capabilities..."

Huo Wu's grandfather said earnestly.

He was genuinely panicked; she was his only granddaughter. Of course, he also had a "good-for-nothing" grandson.

"Okay, Grandpa, I understand."

In the end, Huo Wu nodded. She wasn't afraid of death, but seeing her grandfather's anxious expression made her resolve waver.

In addition, she is still young, in the prime of her life.

"Gentlemen, there's no need to be so sad."

Everyone: Aren't you the most heartbroken?

"The secret of the true body is actually about breaking the limits of the human body, constantly teetering between life and death, racing against death, and..."

This is getting scarier and scarier!

"A healthy body is the foundation of strength. If you have free time, it's beneficial to exercise and stay healthy."

"The previous matches haven't finished yet, so I won't occupy the ring any longer."

After saying this, Zhongli took the teacup from Chiyu, led Paimon off the stage, and returned to his seat.

Tang San: "..."

Still want to compete?

How do we fight this?

A Soul King with two purple and three black hues...

Looking at myself, all my spirit rings combined might not even be as old as the first spirit ring of the Ruler Jade!

This is outrageous!

Xue Qinghe walked towards Zhong Li without making a sound and sat down next to him. The two looked at each other, nodded, and did not speak.

No one was surprised to see this, as it was no secret that Zhongli was a guest advisor in the Crown Prince's residence.

On the stage, Chi Yu took out another silk handkerchief from somewhere, wiped her mouth and hands, and then put the handkerchief away.

This thing can't be destroyed casually. Teacher Bai said that this scarf looks like it costs one gold soul coin.

It's considered a very expensive item.

Chi Yu did that in order to "suppress" Dai Mubai...

"Tang San, please."

Tang San: "..."

He wanted to say there was no need to compete, but his pride wouldn't allow him to do so.

"Three education committee members, I'd like to ask, are we allowed to use our own weapons in this match?"

Suddenly, Tang San seemed to have thought of something, his eyes lit up, and he said to Meng Shenji and the others.

Upon hearing this, not only were Meng Shenji and the others stunned, but the audience was also taken aback.

Isn't sparring all about showcasing martial spirits and soul skills?

Why would Tang San even think of using a weapon?

Can a weapon be more powerful than one's own martial spirit?

Wait a minute, Tang San's martial soul is Blue Silver Grass, a standard useless martial soul, so it seems quite reasonable for him to use a weapon!

Even the worst weapon is still much stronger than his Blue Silver Grass, right?

Meng Shenji and the other two exchanged glances, and although they were puzzled, they nodded.

"Can!"

Hearing this, Tang San breathed a sigh of relief. That's good.

His peak was when he used hidden weapons!

"???"

Tang San looked at Chi Yu with a puzzled expression. When did this cat girl take out a sword?

This sword is amber in color, and no one present would believe that it has nothing to do with Zhongli.

"This sword has no name; it was a gift from my master..."
