"Alright, everyone settle down. Return to your seats. Qingfeng is my personal disciple and will also be the Holy Son of the Sea God Pavilion. Anyone who wants to contend with me will have to step over my dead body."
"As you can all see, Qingfeng has extraordinary bone structure, possessing a celestial presence. He might even be an immortal or god descended to the mortal realm, with the potential to become a god. Is there any problem with him becoming our Sea God Pavilion's Holy Son?"
"Qingfeng, while you are exceptionally handsome and peerless, and can afford to be willful, it's best to remain humble. After all, everyone present are elders and deans of the two departments of Shrek Academy. Take this opportunity to get to know them; perhaps they can assist you in your Martial Soul cultivation in the future."
Mu En said in the Sea God Pavilion's meeting hall, attempting to ease the atmosphere.
"Oh..."
Su Qingfeng nodded indifferently, standing beside Mu En.
Having arrived on the Douluo Continent, he didn't have any grand ambitions. His goal was to grow stronger and protect Tang San and his family. Tang San had already become a God King, so he couldn't defeat him.
It seemed his only options were to be an incredibly handsome Holy Son and live a simple, unpretentious life.
The elders and members of the Sea God Pavilion looked at Su Qingfeng with increasing fondness, nodding their heads.
This child possesses peerless talent!
If only I could take such a disciple, he's such a pleasing sight!
These were their unspoken thoughts.
"Since no one has any objections, we shall announce the matter of the Holy Son of the Sea God Pavilion during the freshman opening ceremony. What do you all think?"
"Agreed!"
"Agreed!"
"I agree. Shrek Academy's students need a representative to lead them, and Qingfeng is perfect for the role!"
"Ahem, you should address him as Holy Son now."
Everyone present echoed their agreement, their attitudes having undergone a complete 180-degree turn.
Yan Shaozhe walked over and patted Su Qingfeng's shoulder, his gaze exceptionally gentle and caring.
"The Sea God Pavilion welcomes you, junior disciple. May we have the honor of seeing your Martial Soul? With your celestial presence, it's bound to be a top-tier Martial Soul."
"Yes, yes, we're curious, what is the Holy Son's Martial Soul?"
The members of the Sea God Pavilion looked at Su Qingfeng with anticipation.
Ordinary handsome men are divided into two types: the striking type, who are stunning at first glance but become unremarkable with prolonged viewing, and the enduring type, who appear ordinary initially but grow more handsome and likable the longer you look.
This young man, however, grew more ethereal and handsome the longer one looked, making him impossible to tire of.
Su Qingfeng said with a helpless expression, "Actually... I don't know what my Martial Soul is..."
This is terrible! I had only been transmigrated for a short while before Mu En brought me back to Shrek Academy. Where would I have had the time to awaken my Martial Soul? Mu En said I was intelligent and possessed peerless talent, but in reality, I was terrified. I'm just a good-for-nothing who hasn't even awakened a Martial Soul, and I don't even know my innate soul power level!
On the Douluo Continent, Soul Masters were the noblest profession, and only those with a Martial Soul could become Soul Masters.
Someone like Su Qingfeng, who was twelve years old and still had no Martial Soul, would basically only be able to work as a commoner and farm... Oh no, not even as good as a commoner. Commoners usually had Martial Souls too, albeit trash ones.
"What? No Martial Soul?!" Upon hearing this, Xian Lin'er slammed her hand on the table, exclaiming in surprise.
At the same time, the other elders of the Sea God Pavilion exchanged glances. How could the Holy Son of the Sea God Pavilion not have a Martial Soul? "Which scoundrel dared to prevent our Sea God Pavilion's Holy Son from awakening his Martial Soul? Don't let me find out who it is, or they will be severely punished!"
"Come, Qingfeng, awaken your Martial Soul. It doesn't matter if your Martial Soul isn't good. Come to our Soul Tool Department, and I'll personally guide you hand-in-hand to become a powerful advanced Soul Master."
The next moment, Xian Lin'er left her seat, preparing to awaken Su Qingfeng's Martial Soul herself.
"Come, be good, give your hand to big sister. Big sister will teach you how to awaken your Martial Soul~"
Xian Lin'er's fair hand grasped Su Qingfeng's, as if holding the entire world.
Qian Duoduo puffed out his nose and said irritably, "Why aren't you ever this proactive with us? And you call yourself big sister? You're old enough to be his mother, I can't stand it!"
"Mind your own business," Xian Lin'er shot Qian Duoduo a glare.
"Dean Xian, allow me to do it," Yan Shaozhe said with a smile, forcefully prying Xian Lin'er's hand away.
An elder seated opposite Xian Lin'er also said at this moment, "Lin'er, if you cause more trouble, you'll be kicked out!"
Only then did Xian Lin'er reluctantly return to her seat, becoming more settled.
"However, Pavilion Master, is a young man who hasn't awakened his Martial Soul at this age truly suitable to be the first Holy Son of our Sea God Pavilion?"
"The Sea God Pavilion is the most core institution of Shrek Academy. Our Holy Son, not to mention far surpassing Le Xuan and Xiao Tao, should at least not be inferior to the Holy Son of the Holy Spirit Cult, right?"
"If their Soul Master talent cannot convince people, even if their demeanor is peerless and their looks are divinely stunning, they are not suitable to establish the position of Holy Son for him. It might even bring him disaster..."
Some of the Sea God Pavilion elders gradually regained their composure. Although Su Qingfeng was very handsome, making them all feel as if they had returned to their spirited youth, and as if they were looking at a celestial being, if he lacked talent, standing in that position would be very dangerous.
"Shao Zhe, awaken Qingfeng's Martial Soul. Prove to the elders with facts that I, Dragon God Douluo, Mu En, would not misjudge."
At this moment, Mu En, who was lying on his lounge chair, said faintly.
"As you command."
This院长 (Dean) of the Martial Soul Department, who held a pivotal influence in the Soul Master world and was respected by all students in the academy, was extremely respectful before Mu En.
"Little junior brother, I don't know why you haven't awakened your Martial Soul, but no matter how strong it is, as your senior brother, I will protect you."
Yan Shaozhe said gently. Speaking of which, besides himself, his teacher had never taken any other personal disciples. He never expected that during an outing, he would bring back a junior brother who was as handsome as a god and as ethereal as an immortal. How could he not be happy? "Little junior brother, don't resist my power. I will guide you to sense your Martial Soul and will not harm you."
Yan Shaozhe brought his index and middle fingers together, pointing at Su Qingfeng's brow. His soul power flowed through his fingers, communicating with Su Qingfeng.
"Mm..."
The Douluo Continent had developed for tens of thousands of years, long having shed its primitive soul master world. Especially the powerhouses of the Sea God Pavilion, who could awaken Martial Souls without the aid of Martial Soul crystal balls.
"Junior Brother, your Martial Soul..."
Yan Shaozhe's eyes suddenly bloomed with a brilliance akin to the myriad stars in the night sky. His consciousness entered Su Qingfeng's Sea of Consciousness.
Within Su Qingfeng's Sea of Consciousness, a peerless young figure floated. Behind him were countless stars, shimmering with infinite brilliance, deep and resplendent, illuminating the youth and perfectly accentuating his handsome face.
The youth also released a domain that covered space, making the surroundings appear mostly white. Dragons, phoenixes, and immortal cranes circled and danced around him, with golden and silver petals occasionally drifting down, making him look like a banished immortal fallen from the depths of the starry sky!
