Seven Treasure Third Orphanage.
On the roof of a remote small courtyard, a handsome little boy with black, choppy hair lay leisurely, basking in the sun.
If a Soul Master were to look from above, they would find the little boy unusually still and quiet, seemingly just sunbathing, but in reality, he was meditating.
Although meditation doesn't enhance Soul Power for Soul Masters who haven't awakened their Spirits yet, Xu Yang, who had transmigrated, understood that meditation could not only enhance Soul Power but also Spiritual Power. Spiritual Power was extremely important for Soul Masters, as it was the foundation that determined a Soul Master's upper limit.
Didn't you see that by the time of Douluo III and Douluo IV, Spiritual Power had been specifically divided into levels, and the methods of cultivation had been perfected?
However, Xu Yang hadn't actually read Douluo III and Douluo IV; he had only heard his classmates mention it when discussing novels back then. He had only read Douluo I and Douluo II, and because it had been a long time, he had forgotten many plot details, but he hadn't forgotten some key settings, which was enough for him.
Immortal Herbs, Ultimate Attributes, Whale Rubber, Soul Cores...
Each of these pieces of knowledge was priceless to the Douluo Continent of the Douluo I timeline, and Xu Yang knew them all; this was foresight.
And to condense the most important Soul Core, powerful Spiritual Power was indispensable. This was also the main reason why Xu Yang was meditating on the roof; he wanted to improve as much as he could before awakening his Spirit.
Perhaps this small improvement could allow him to successfully condense a Soul Core at the Soul Douluo or even Soul Saint level.
Of course, it would be even better if he could awaken a Spirit with Spiritual properties!
Even if it wasn't a Spirit with Spiritual properties, he planned to absorb Soul Rings with Spiritual properties as much as possible, based on improving his own strength and Spirit, to maximize the enhancement of his Spiritual Power.
As for why he was meditating in the sun on the roof instead of in his room...
It was because Xu Yang had discovered that meditating in the sun had a better effect, making it easier to enter a meditative state, and his Spiritual Power would improve a bit faster, while at night, there was no such effect.
This also led to Xu Yang becoming a night owl in this life, often meditating and cultivating during the day.
He guessed that his Spirit in this life should be of the Fire or Light attribute and definitely had Innate Soul Power. After all, ordinary Spirits didn't have this kind of effect, but he didn't know how high his Innate Soul Power level was.
"Too bad I don't know what my Spirit is!"
Xu Yang sighed slightly. He was an orphan in this life, unlike the other children in the orphanage. He didn't know who his parents were. The other children were sent to the orphanage because their parents were from villages near Seven Treasure City and had died for various reasons, while he was picked up by the orphanage's director.
Not knowing who his parents were naturally meant not knowing what his Spirit was!
But fortunately, the Seven Treasure Third Orphanage was opened by the wealthiest sect on the continent, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, so life here was very comfortable. The meals weren't all big fish and meat, but they were balanced with meat and vegetables, nutritious, and filling, not causing malnutrition, which was much better than some little wretches.
The orphanage even had dedicated teachers to teach you literacy and various knowledge, including information about Soul Beasts and Soul Masters.
The orphanage also had a sizable library. The basic meditation method that Xu Yang was currently using was found in the library. It seemed that this kind of meditation method was already widespread on the continent, and it couldn't be easier to obtain.
Of course, this was an investment by the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. Those orphans who could become Soul Masters after growing up would serve the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, and those who couldn't would have to work in the various industries under the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
After all, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's industries were spread throughout the Douluo Continent, and the manpower required was definitely not small.
And in this chaotic Douluo Continent, only talents cultivated from a young age were the most loyal.
...
And so, an hour passed.
Xu Yang opened his eyes, ended his meditation, and came to the courtyard from the ladder on the side, walking towards the central building of the orphanage.
Today was the day of Spirit Awakening, and he didn't want to miss it because of being late.
Although Douluo was called a Xuanhuan paving stone, he didn't care about that. Having extraordinary power was every man's dream since childhood.
In less than three minutes, he arrived inside the building. This year, the Seven Treasure Third Orphanage didn't have many people awakening their Spirits; only seven met the age requirement.
Seeing Xu Yang arrive, Ning Que, the orphanage director, nodded. He remembered every child in the orphanage, but this child left the deepest impression. Not only because he had picked him up, but also because this child was mature enough to endure learning various knowledge, instead of being as lively as other children.
Because of this, he also placed high hopes on Xu Yang, feeling that this child could become a great Soul Master.
Xu Yang smiled and responded to Ning Que, then stood at the end of the line, waiting for the Spirit awakening.
"Tian Hao, Spirit Blue Silver Grass, Innate Soul Power zero, unable to become a Soul Master!"
"Miles, Spirit Green Vine, Innate Soul Power level three, not bad!"
"Wang Xin, Spirit Battle Wolf, Innate Soul Power level four, very good!"
"Li Qian, Spirit Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, Innate Soul Power level six... I didn't expect it to be the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda. I will notify the sect later and have them come to pick you up!"
...
The Spirit awakening of the first six children ended quickly. Except for three who had no Soul Power, the rest had Soul Power. The best among them was the girl named Li Qian, who awakened the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda. She would probably be a member of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's main family in the future.
As for why someone awakening the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda didn't have the surname Ning, Xu Yang, having lived here for several years, understood.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School disciples were divided into the main family and branch families. Because of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's rules, main family disciples must marry or be married to a Battle Soul Master as their other half. Therefore, the descendants of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School disciples were not all Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagodas; they could very well be the Spirits of other relatives. These Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School disciples who awakened other Spirits were members of the branch families.
Li Qian was a member of the branch family, most likely inheriting the Spirit from a distant ancestor. Although this possibility was small, it still occurred once every few years.
After seeing the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, the smile on Ning Que's face never stopped. As the director of the orphanage, he would receive a considerable reward for the appearance of a genius disciple or a main family disciple.
"Xiao Yang, it's your turn!"
"Okay, Director!"
Xu Yang quickly walked into the six-pointed star formation composed of black stones.
"Extend your dominant hand and try to stimulate your Spirit."
Hearing this, Xu Yang closed his eyes and extended his right hand.
Ning Que also began to infuse Soul Power into the formation to help him stimulate his Spirit.
Instantly, Xu Yang felt warm all over, as if something inside his body couldn't be suppressed and was about to surge out.
A dozen seconds later, a golden sphere appeared in Xu Yang's hand.
The sphere burned with faint golden flames, as dazzling as the Sun in the sky.
"Fire attribute... top-tier Spirit!"
"But why haven't I seen it before?!"
