Chapter 7 - Chapter 7: You can call me Grandpa

Kong Deming's gaze sharpened slightly, and he reached out to take the letter.

Kong Deming possessed a quarter of the Sun Moon Empire's imperial bloodline, and because of his existence, the Kong family's status had risen significantly.

However, the Kong family had few descendants, and there was not a single junior who could catch Kong Deming's eye.

If nothing unexpected happened, after Kong Deming's death, the Kong family's status would plummet.

Kong Deming now wanted to know what kind of confidence the Shiquan Primary Soul Engineer Academy had to dare send him a letter directly.

He opened the letter, unfolded the paper, and the content written on it was not much; Kong Deming finished reading it all in two glances.

Xuan Ziwen, standing by, saw his teacher suddenly stand up. He had been calm and composed just moments before, but now he couldn't even control his spirit power.

A powerful aura spread out from Kong Deming, but it was fleeting and did not extend beyond the room.

"Teacher? What's wrong?"

Xuan Ziwen couldn't help but ask. For his teacher to react like this, the content of this letter must be extraordinary.

Kong Deming looked at his disciple and, without hesitation, handed him the letter.

After reading the contents of the letter, Xuan Ziwen's eyes also flashed with surprise: "Teacher, if it's truly the Sun Martial Soul, even if they aren't your blood relatives, they must have imperial blood!"

In Fang Sheng's letter, the focus was on Kong Ling. It was precisely because of her Sun Martial Soul and surname that he felt there was a connection to Kong Deming.

Kong Deming walked out from behind the desk and said, "These are not the main points."

Xuan Ziwen was first taken aback by the words, then seemed to understand what his teacher meant.

Kong Deming continued, "The most important thing is that both siblings mentioned in the letter have Innate Full Soul Power!"

To evaluate a Spirit Master's talent, besides the strength of their Spirit, one must look at their innate spirit power.

And Kong Xuan and Kong Ling, both in terms of Spirit and innate spirit power, were one in a million.

As long as the information about the two of them was true, even if they had no blood relation to Kong Deming, he would not miss these two geniuses.

"I'm going to Shiquan City right now, Ziwen. You notify them that tomorrow's meeting is canceled."

After saying this, Kong Deming strode out. He was already impatient to meet those two young geniuses... Shiquan Primary Soul Engineer Academy, Dean's Office.

Next to Fang Sheng's desk, a space had been cleared.

A small blackboard was placed closest to the bookshelf, and opposite it were two small tables and chairs.

Kong Xuan and Kong Ling, the siblings, were now sitting obediently in their chairs, listening attentively to Fang Sheng's lecture.

Fang Sheng today was not discussing cultivation details or Spirit Beast knowledge, but teaching the two how to read.

Fang Sheng, who was lecturing, suddenly stopped. He looked around, his face showing a serious and vigilant expression.

And when his gaze turned towards the window, he paused, stunned on the spot.

Kong Xuan looked in the direction of Fang Sheng's gaze, and through the window, he could clearly see a figure in mid-air above the academy!

There was no flying spirit tool behind him; he was simply suspended in the air.

Titled Douluo!

These four words instantly appeared in Kong Xuan's mind.

On the Douluo Continent, without the aid of spirit tools, only Spirit Masters with flying Spirits or Titled Douluo could fly.

And at this moment, a Titled Douluo had appeared in mid-air above the Shiquan Primary Soul Engineer Academy.

Upon seeing the figure outside, the vigilance on Fang Sheng's face dissipated, replaced by a smile of excitement, for he had recognized the identity of the newcomer.

Just as he was about to go out to greet him, before Fang Sheng could even make a move, the figure in mid-air outside the window suddenly vanished!

Then, to his astonished gaze, he suddenly felt a wave of spirit power from in front of him, and a tall figure appeared out of thin air.

The person was dressed in a bright yellow robe, with his hands clasped behind his back. Just standing there gave off an invisible pressure, and this person was precisely the one who had just been in mid-air outside the window.

Fang Sheng had heard that some powerful Titled Douluo could control spatial power.

Clearly, what the person in front of him had just used was a spatial ability.

Fang Sheng quickly stepped forward, bowed, and saluted: "Fang Sheng, Dean of Shiquan Primary Soul Engineer Academy, greets Your Excellency Silver Moon."

That's right, the newcomer was none other than the Hall Master of the Sun Moon Empire's Hall of Worship, the Silver Moon Douluo, Kong Deming!

After seeing Fang Sheng's letter, he had set off overnight, finally arriving in Shiquan City the next afternoon.

Kong Deming looked at Fang Sheng and asked, "You've seen me before?"

As the Hall Master of the Hall of Worship, Kong Deming had always lived in seclusion. Logically, Fang Sheng, a Spirit King level person, shouldn't have known him.

Fang Sheng quickly replied, "When I was studying in Capital City, I had the honor of meeting Your Excellency."

Although Fang Sheng was already over sixty years old, when he was young, Kong Deming was already a Titled Douluo.

Kong Deming nodded, then turned his gaze to the side.

Behind the specially made small table, Kong Xuan and Kong Ling, the siblings, were also looking up, their gazes meeting Kong Deming's in mid-air.

Kong Deming took a few steps, then actually squatted down in front of the two, his gaze perfectly level with theirs.

"Children, release your Spirits."

As he spoke, Kong Deming also observed the siblings opposite him.

Kong Xuan's eyes were clear, seeming to possess a calmness that did not match his age.

Kong Ling, on the other hand, appeared somewhat timid and flustered, her gaze constantly turning to her brother, but this was a normal reaction for a child of that age.

Although he had never seen the person in front of him, Kong Xuan already had a guess about his identity.

He first glanced at his younger sister beside him, gave her a reassuring look, and smiled at her with a nod.

Then Kong Xuan directly extended his right hand, and the sky-supporting spear was held in his hand, a incandescent light shimmering on the crystal-like long spear.

Feeling the sharp aura emanating from the spear, even Kong Deming couldn't help but feel a leap in his heart.

Despite it being the first time he had seen such a spear-type Spirit, he had already determined that this was definitely a top-tier Tool Spirit!

Seeing her brother's action, Kong Ling also followed suit and extended her left hand.

As a small orange-red sun rose in her hand, the temperature in Fang Sheng's Dean's Office suddenly rose significantly.

Witnessing Kong Ling's Sun Martial Soul with his own eyes, Kong Deming had basically confirmed their identities, as the inheritance of a Spirit could not be faked.

His expression instantly softened, and he softly asked, "Have you never seen your parents?"

Kong Ling looked timid, did not answer the question, and only kept looking at her brother.

Kong Xuan, however, reached into his collar, pulled on the red string around his neck, and retrieved a cyan jade plaque.

"Our village chief grandpa picked us up from the mountains and brought us back to the village. We've never seen our parents, and we only have this jade plaque on us."

Kong Xuan showed the jade plaque to Kong Deming, continuing, "Village chief grandpa said the character written on it is 'Kong', so my sister and I should be surnamed Kong."

Upon seeing this jade plaque, Kong Deming completely confirmed the identity of this pair of siblings; they were indeed members of his Kong family!

A hundred years ago, before he became a Titled Douluo, the Kong family suffered a great disaster, and many clansmen either died or fled during that time.

And the jade plaque Kong Xuan displayed was the Kong family's heirloom!

He surmised that Kong Xuan and Kong Ling, the two siblings, must be descendants of the clansmen who had once fled.

After him, the Kong family's talent withered, and now two geniuses with Innate Full Soul Power appeared; truly, Heaven blesses his Kong family!

Suppressing the excitement in his heart, Kong Deming's gaze towards the two siblings held a hint of affection: "My name is Kong Deming. I am your elder. Although I don't know who your parents are, you can call me grandpa."
