Douluo Continent, Reborn: Yuhao and the Silver Dragon Keep Their Appointment
Chapter 31 Turmoil Inside the Tower
"Okay... Na'er is the best..."
Huo Yuhao gently stroked Na'er's silver hair, his movements as tender as water: "Then how about you accompany your brother to awaken your martial soul?"
Na'er nodded sullenly.
Seeing that Na'er wasn't upset, Huo Yuhao turned to Aunt Su and asked, "Aunt Su, thank you. Now, how do I awaken my martial soul?"
Aunt Su smiled, then took Su Yuewan's hand with her left hand, who seemed somewhat dissatisfied for some reason, and Huo Yuhao's hand with her right hand, leading them towards the elevator.
Upon reaching the third floor, Aunt Su was overwhelmed by the numerous room numbers and searched for quite a while before finally finding her room. This Awakening Room was one Aunt Su had specifically requested from the Spirit Pagoda staff. It wasn't any different from the other rooms, except that family members could enter together to observe. More importantly, after awakening their Martial Soul here, the staff would conduct a comprehensive examination of the child's Martial Soul and bloodline. If the child awakened a useless Martial Soul but had abundant bloodline power, they could use immortal herbs to mutate the Martial Soul, increasing cultivation speed. However, the downside was that the foundation was unstable at the Soul King stage and beyond, and immortal herbs were extremely expensive, making it an unattainable opportunity for ordinary families.
Aunt Su put the ticket into the machine, and after a moment, the door opened. Aunt Su led the group inside.
Upon entering the Awakening Room, Huo Yuhao was immediately captivated. The floor, walls, and even the ceiling were etched with wondrous and exquisite patterns and designs. These patterns, reflected in Huo Yuhao's mind, inexplicably evoked a sense of familiarity. But soon, his expression turned cold.
The room wasn't particularly large, but besides the Spirit Pagoda personnel, there were other people inside. Aunt Su was visibly taken aback, but her face remained expressionless. This Awakening Room didn't have a rule against isolating outsiders; because very few people came, it wasn't as private as other Awakening Rooms.
However, even if someone were there, Huo Yuhao wouldn't have shown any unusual reaction. But that person happened to be the fat father and son who had been making things difficult for them at every turn.
When Su Yuewan saw that it was the father and son, she was immediately furious. But since her mother was there, she didn't dare to do anything and could only stomp her feet in anger.
Aunt Su glanced at the two of them, then turned to look at Huo Yuhao. After all, Huo Yuhao and Na'er had just had a conflict with someone yesterday. Huo Yuhao didn't show any particular expression, but suddenly, a chill ran down her spine. It vanished in an instant. Na'er… what was with Na'er's eyes… did Na'er want to kill him? Never mind, Na'er is still a child, how could she be so cruel…
Aunt Su had originally planned to go out first and wait for the father and son to awaken their martial souls before coming back in, but the Spirit Pagoda personnel inside spoke first. A gentle voice came from within: "What's wrong? Why aren't you coming in?"
A gentle-looking middle-aged man stepped out, wearing an orange robe covered with runes. Huo Yuhao looked at the runes, a flicker of emotion crossing his eyes.
He stepped forward and said, "Uncle, my name is Huo Yuhao, and I'm here to awaken my martial soul."
"Pfft—"
A sneer came from the obese father and son. The chubby boy grinned from ear to ear: "Haha...you piece of trash? You dare to share the same name as Lord Lingbing Douluo? Hahaha, this is hilarious..."
The Spirit Pagoda member's eyes lit up instantly. It was well known that since the legend of Spirit Ice Douluo had been passed down for ten thousand years, many people had indeed used that name, and most of them possessed martial souls similar to Spirit Ice Douluo's. However, none of them were surnamed Huo; their surname was Dai. Moreover, most of their names were changed later in life, making it extremely rare for people to share the same surname and given name.
Now that a child with the exact same surname and given name has suddenly appeared, he can't help but feel excited. Moreover, the child's eyes are as deep as a vast ocean, making him seem like a born spirit with a divine eye martial soul.
He patted Huo Yuhao on the shoulder and said, "Your eyes are so beautiful, and even your name is exactly the same as Lingbing Douluo's. Your martial soul might really be the Spirit Eye."
Listening to his uncle's words from the Spirit Pagoda, and recalling the Spirit Ice Douluo they mentioned, as well as the handsome man in the mural, Huo Yuhao couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement. If he truly awakened the Spirit Eye Martial Soul, would he become incredibly powerful? Would he be able to protect Na'er and control the unknown power within him?
He looked up, his face beaming with joy, and said, "Then, Uncle Spirit Pagoda, awaken my Martial Soul now!"
"Hey, you piece of trash, what are you thinking?"
That annoying sound came again.
"It's my turn to awaken my martial soul now! You still want to cut in line?" the chubby boy shouted angrily at Huo Yuhao.
"You!" Su Yuewan saw the fat man cursing again and was about to step forward when Huo Yuhao stopped her.
"Why are you stopping me?" Su Yuewan asked, her face full of displeasure. "Why would you rather be insulted and humiliated yourself?"
Looking at Huo Yuhao's appearance, Na'er felt an indescribable sadness. He looked so much like him… so incredibly much, almost exactly the same as before. Unlike Su Yuewan, she wasn't agitated; she simply stood quietly, as if lost in thought.
Aunt Su's expression was somewhat strange upon seeing Huo Yuhao's attitude. This was completely unlike what a six-year-old child should act; she could clearly see the restraint in Huo Yuhao's eyes. But what surprised her even more was Su Yuewan's reaction—she had always been taciturn, unwilling to even open her eyes, but now, through Su Yuewan's slightly transparent eye patch, she could clearly see the grievance in her eyes…
Huo Yuhao ignored Su Yuewan's words, and instead bowed slightly to the Spirit Pagoda staff, saying, "Then please help them awaken their martial souls, Uncle."
The Spirit Pagoda staff's eyes lit up again at his expression. Huo Yuhao, at such a young age, could completely ignore others' malicious words; this was enough to prove that the child's temperament and mental strength far surpassed that of ordinary people. This further convinced them that Huo Yuhao's martial soul was highly likely to be the Spirit Eye.
The Spirit Pagoda member turned to look at the father and son, his gentle expression fading, leaving only calm. Clearly, he didn't have any goodwill towards them either.
Seeing the change in the Spirit Pagoda staff's expression, the chubby boy's arrogance immediately subsided. He couldn't afford to offend the Spirit Pagoda. The big fat boy also glared fiercely at Huo Yuhao before following the Spirit Pagoda staff inside.
Aunt Su waved, signaling them to follow. Huo Yuhao followed expressionlessly, as if nothing had happened, and took Na'er's hand, which had been tightly gripping his.
He thought to himself, Na'er hasn't said anything, she must be scared... But how could someone as strong as Na'er be scared...
Only Su Yuewan stood there, staring blankly at his retreating figure, her face deathly pale. Her eyes were fully open, a faint crescent moon pattern reflected in her blue-purple pupils. Unbeknownst to her, her soul power had actually broken through to level 21…
