"Hehe, I didn't expect the first person to be me!"
The enthusiastic fifteen-year-old member who had just heard that he was the first person showed an excited expression on his face.
He excitedly squeezed through the crowd and entered the City Lord's Mansion, quickly arriving at the Martial Soul Awakening venue under the guidance of the signs.
Huo Yuhao soon saw a muscular man who was 1.9 meters tall standing in the middle of the Martial Soul Awakening Formation.
"Hehe, it's the boss!"
"Boss, I love you!"
Huo Yuhao's eyelids twitched involuntarily. He checked the list again to confirm that his name was fifteen years old.
"Yuhao, stop flipping through. This guy's name is Boss, a member of Passion, nicknamed Mad Bull. I checked Passion's file, and he's only fifteen."
"And he's incredibly loyal to Passion, and very efficient in his work!"
"Recently, a Passion officer recommended him for a transfer to Shrek City to expand their territory."
"Alright, this kid is really... promising."
Seeing his fangirl-like expression, Huo Yuhao didn't hesitate and immediately activated the awakening array!
Martial Soul awakening isn't complicated at all; a set of awakening stones can last for decades, and any powerful Soul Master could easily activate the array.
Unfortunately, Martial Soul awakening is monopolized in this era.
Golden light surged from the array, and then Boss, in the center, closed his eyes. In no time at all, a blood-red demonic bull appeared behind him.
Seeing the aura of this martial soul, Huo Yuhao knew that soul power must have appeared.
The first person to have soul power was a good omen.
"Mad Bull Martial Soul, not bad, a high-level Martial Soul."
"Place your hand on the crystal ball in front of you to test your soul power."
Boss clenched his right hand, feeling a surge of powerful energy within him.
"Yes, Boss!"
Upon hearing Huo Yuhao's words, he immediately stood at attention and walked to the crystal ball to test his soul power.
The moment his right hand touched the crystal ball, blue light filled its interior.
Huo Yuhao nodded and recorded his innate soul power in his notebook.
"Not bad, innate level six soul power."
"If you cultivate diligently in the future, you can become a Soul Saint."
"Once you reach level ten, go to the Passionate Execution Department and find someone to hunt your first soul ring."
Boss, tears streaming down his face, bowed to Huo Yuhao and said,
"I will definitely live up to your expectations, Boss."
Huo Yuhao waved him away through the side door and then called in the next person.
"Tang... Tang San?!"
He almost couldn't hold back. How could someone have such a name? How strong must their destiny be? How dare they take such a name?
Fortunately, the one who finally came before Huo Yuhao was a little boy who had just turned six, not the Buddha himself descending to the mortal realm to play with Huo Yuhao.
"Hmm, Martial Soul Forging Hammer."
"Level one Soul Power, you have the potential to become a Soul Master."
"If you have the chance when you go back, have your family change your name. This name has too much karma! You can't handle it."

The fact that two people in a row possessed soul power greatly encouraged Huo Yuhao, making him think that besides Bai E and his group, there might be some big news today.
Of course, things didn't develop as Huo Yuhao had anticipated.
Innate soul power was extremely rare; aside from the complete version of the Xuan Tian Gong, there were no other cultivation methods that could spontaneously generate innate soul power.
"Martial Soul: Scythe, no soul power."
"Martial Soul: Chicken, no soul power."
"Martial Soul: Fat Cat, half-level soul power."
"Martial Soul: Long Whip, no soul power."
Later awakenings rarely produced any soul power, and even if they did, it wouldn't exceed level five.
Boss's Mad Bull Martial Soul truly started at its peak.
The crowd in the square in front of the City Lord's Mansion dwindled; some went home overjoyed, while others were dejected.
Bai E and the others still hadn't heard their names called, but fortunately, Zuo Man'er gently comforted them.
As the crowd thinned, Su Nuo's figure came into Bai E and the others' view.
He stood at the other end of the square, leaning against the wall with his eyes closed, waiting for his name to be announced over the loudspeaker.
The sun gradually set in the west, its afterglow painting the sky golden. Today, all the children present were of the first batch of eligible children to awaken their martial souls.
The martial soul awakening would continue for two more days, but Huo Yuhao wouldn't be personally in charge then.
Huo Yuhao's main objective was Bai E and the others; the others were secondary.
Only a few children from the orphanage remained in the square, and Huo Yuhao's voice finally reached them.
"Su Nuo."
The red-haired child opened his eyes, not saying a word to Bai E and the others, and walked straight into the City Lord's Mansion.
Su Nuo stood on the awakening array, and Huo Yuhao began activating his martial soul.
Soon, his body underwent a transformation. Black markings appeared on his face, and fine cracks appeared below his eyes, as if concealing something. His
deformed fingers began to lengthen, and his nails became sharp.
"Dual-body martial soul."
"Let's test your soul power."
Su Nuo could already feel the immense power within him; he estimated he could now cut through anything!
A confident and arrogant expression appeared on his face as he walked to the crystal ball to test his soul power.
"Innate full soul power!"
Huo Yuhao wasn't surprised. The opponent's dual-body martial soul was a top-tier physical martial soul; even Poison Fear couldn't compare to him.
At Huo Yuhao's signal, he quickly left the city lord's mansion through a side door, heading straight for a forest outside, presumably to test his strength!
"Tibao."
Outside, Tibao heard her name and said to Bai E and the others,
"Xiao Bai, I'm going first."
Bai E smiled and replied, "Teacher Tibao's martial soul must be very powerful."
"Then I'll take Xiao Bai's good wishes."
Tibao entered the city lord's mansion, and Huo Yuhao looked gently at the cute little girl before him.
"Stand in the center of the magic circle."
Tibao, with a small tuft of red hair swaying, obediently stood in the center of the magic circle to officially begin her martial soul awakening!
A triangular golden door appeared behind her, and the surrounding spatial elements began to activate, actively kissing the red-haired girl in front of the door.
The surrounding space seemed to cheer, welcoming the door! It seemed to sense its king.
"As expected of the bloodline of the Space Dragon King, the highest authority in the realm of space."
The golden door slowly closed, and the space began to stabilize. Tibao seemed to have exhausted herself, already panting heavily.
Huo Yuhao took the initiative to pick up the crystal ball for her to test her soul power.
As expected, the crystal ball shone brightly, indicating innate full soul power.
Huo Yuhao rubbed Tibao's head and said,
"There should only be children from the orphanage outside, right? Call them all over."
"I'll have them all awaken their martial souls together."
Although Tibao was a little tired, she was still very excited. She felt that the surrounding space was holding her hand.
She ran out of the city lord's mansion gate and waved to Bai E and the others, saying,
"Little Bai, Little Di, and Little Feng Jin."
"Brother Huo wants you to come in together. He wants to awaken your martial souls together!"
The three people in the square glanced at Zuo Man'er after hearing this, and then ran into the city lord's mansion together to find Huo Yuhao with Tibao.
Huo Yuhao looked kindly at the three people and had them stand on the magic circle one by one.
Then he began to awaken their martial souls. This time, the golden light spots on the magic circle were exceptionally numerous, almost forming a golden ocean.
Tibao involuntarily covered her eyes with her small hands as the golden light spots slowly dissipated.
Three terrifying auras appeared simultaneously in the City Lord's Mansion. Tibao was alright, after all, she also had a super martial soul.
Zuo Man'er, standing at the entrance of the City Lord's Mansion, immediately felt her martial soul tremble, and even her soul power circulation sluggishly slowed down.
First were two beast martial souls, the Wind God Horse and the Golden Lion King.
One was close to the ultimate wind and had extremely strong healing abilities, while the other had pure and strongest violence—ultimate power, and fire attribute.
Undoubtedly, they were super martial souls.
They stood behind Feng Jin and Meddemos, respectively, intimidating the surroundings!
Then they quickly dissipated into the air, and martial soul marks appeared on the right hands of Feng Jin and Meddemos.
Bai E now had a large sword in his right hand, the Invading Morning Sword, which Huo Yuhao had carefully designed, and a seed of destruction within him began to emit a pure aura of destruction!
This aura of destruction was concealed by the ultimate light of dawn, so Feng Jin and Medemos couldn't sense it, only feeling that Bai E was as warm as the sun.
Huo Yuhao's lips curled slightly upward, and he gently connected with the little planet spirit through the [Dream] authority.
He instructed the little planet spirit to transmit Bai E's aura of destruction to the God Realm!
"Okay, leave it to me."
After receiving Huo Yuhao's instruction, the little planet spirit began to guide this pure destruction to the God Realm.
...
In a purple castle in the God Realm, surrounded by purple lightning of destruction year-round.
A mysterious man wearing a large purple cloak that concealed his head sat quietly on the Throne of Destruction, seemingly lost in thought.
"The expansion of the God Realm is urgent!"
"Tang San..."
Suddenly, the God of Destruction stood up abruptly, this primordial god who had existed for countless ages showing an expression of extreme shock for the first time.
"Such pure destructive aura!"
"It's already comparable to my original Destruction Condensate!"
"This is impossible!"
"Let me see what's going on!"
The God of Destruction's divine sense immediately moved towards the Douluo Continent, shattering Tang San's divine sense surrounding Douluo Star in the process.
"What's that sound? Did my divine sense shatter something?"
"Never mind, the source of the destructive aura is more important."
At this moment, Tang San, who was recuperating in the Sea God's Mansion after being backfired by the Spirit Lord's position, coughed up blood again.
He felt his divine sense on Douluo Star being shattered by a destructive aura!
"Destruction!!!"
"You old bastard, you've gone too far!"
"Just wait, I think you want to eat the Sea God's Trident and Blue Silver Entanglement!"
Tang San hurriedly tried to stop the God of Destruction's divine sense from entering Douluo Star, but he was no match for it at all. His divine sense was obliterated by the power of destruction before it even got close.
"No, Destruction, you can't!"
"Douluo Star is my base!"
Destruction didn't care about anything else; wasn't Douluo Star also directly under the God Realm?
He was the supreme god, and naturally had the right to govern Douluo Star.
Soon, Destruction saw Bai E's figure.
He gently scanned Bai E's body with his divine sense.
Far away in the God Realm, Destruction trembled upon seeing Bai E's physical condition.
"Too perfect!"
"The power of destruction can actually coexist with light!"
"This, how is this possible!"
"This light is so warm, it seems to contain the breath of life, just like the sun. "
"This child's destructive quality is actually the ability to give birth to new life within destruction!"
The God of Destruction was captivated by Bai E's unique aura of destruction.
He had been studying the Way of Destruction for many years, and had never seen such warm destructive power before. This feeling of giving birth to new life within destruction was unprecedented!
Without hesitation, the God of Destruction immediately used his divine power to access the world's recorded memories. Douluo's planetary will also readily transmitted its memories of Bai E to the God of Destruction.
"Good!"
"Excellent!"
"So cheerful, so kind, so perfect!"
"This child might bring a completely new meaning to Destruction!"
The God of Destruction's eyes widened, his entire body trembling violently, and the lightning outside the castle began to crackle and weave into music. "
If he inherits my divine position, the concept of new life arising from destruction will be implanted into the rules of destruction!"
"Could Little Green and I then have offspring?!"
Thinking this, the God of Destruction could no longer sit still. He rushed out of the Castle of Destruction, heading straight for the Forest of Life.
His aura was made completely undisguised; even gods below the level of chief gods dared not look directly at the rapidly approaching purple sun.
