At this moment, in the bustling square, a young girl was riding a carriage towards the center of the square.
This carriage completely ignored the surrounding commoners. Moreover, the carriage was extremely magnificent. One look and one could tell that it was driven by the nobles of the world.
The person on the carriage was the descendant of Eden Cavendish, one of the current heirs of the Cavendish family, Rose Cavendish.
Rose looked at the surging crowd in front of her and could not help but frown slightly.
Suddenly, a delicate-looking young man in the crowd attracted Rose’s gaze.
The young man stood quietly in the crowd with a silent expression.
His body carried a temperament that kept people at a distance, and he seemed to be incompatible with the noisy crowd around him.
Rose’s mother beside her noticed her gaze.
She frowned and spoke in disdain.
“This is Copperfield, the son of the sinner who caused the destruction of Titan City. He is the sole survivor of the Russell Family.”
Hearing this, the admiration in Rose’s eyes disappeared and turned into a deep resentment. She spoke angrily.
“Back then, it was this man’s father who caused so many citizens of the city to lose their homes. How can such a person participate in the soul-awakening ceremony?”
“He’s not worthy at all!”
In front of the square, Rose left the carriage with the escort and walked towards the awakening platform.
Rose retracted her gaze and decided not to look at that scumbag, even though his gaze felt as deep as the sea.
At this moment, seeing rose walking over, the crowd immediately erupted.
“Is this the eldest daughter of the Cavendish Family?”
“I’ve long heard that the next heir of the Cavendish family is extremely talented and beautiful!”
“If nothing goes wrong, Miss Rose will also awaken the legacy soul of the Cavendish family — the Spirit Sword Hailstone.”
Rose listened to the praise in her ears, and the corners of her mouth faintly curved up. When she walked not far away from Copperfield, she lightly snorted and disdained to look sideways.
However, Copperfield’s gaze similarly did not fall on Rose.
At this moment, Copperfield was staring at a white-clothed youth standing in the crowd with his hands behind his back.
The youth seemed to have sensed something and raised his head. Their gazes crossed.
Copperfield saw a hint of extraordinary determination in the youth’s eyes.
It was very special. Moreover, Copperfield could feel the blood and energy that only existed on the battlefield from his body.
However, with the sound of coughing on the awakening platform, all the young people’s thoughts were pulled back.
In front of the awakening platform.
There was an old man standing on the platform. What attracted everyone’s attention was not the old man wearing a loose robe, but the three stars that represented his strength on the old man’s huge wizard hat!
“Is this a three-star master?”
Someone in the crowd could not help but mutter.
However, this three-star soul master was more than a hundred times weaker than Terrence. This kind of strength was only average in Copperfield’s eyes.
After the old man introduced the steps required for the awakening ceremony according to the usual practice.
The soul-awakening ceremony officially began.
“Soul Compatibility, 20%! Soul, Pitchfork!”
The youth on the stage flushed red.
That’s right, not only did each person awaken a soul with all sorts of different powerful abilities, but there were also countless people who will awaken a soul that doesn’t have much combat power each year. The strength of a soul also determines the upper limit of a person’s strength in certain aspects!
“Soul Compatibility, 5%! Soul, Pencil!”
“Soul Compatibility, 10%! Soul, Hoe!”
…
Two hours later.
“Next, Rose Cavendish.”
Following the old man’s voice, everyone suddenly woke up from their daze.
“Is it finally Miss Rose’s turn?”
The audience below the stage looked at Rose Cavendish, who was walking up to the awakening stage, with envy in their eyes.
The girl calmly walked forward and placed her hand on the soul-testing sphere!
A faint blue halo appeared in the soul-testing sphere, as if a layer of frost was surrounding the sphere.
“It really is an ice-type soul!”
As the ice-blue frost continued to surge, a magical spell formed from ice slowly formed in the void of the sphere. The obscure and dense patterns on the spell, compared to those summoned by the youth from before her, showed the difference in strength between their souls ever so clearly!
With a flash of light from the ice spell, a one-handed sword covered in ice slowly emerged from the formation.
Soul, Hailstone!
The body of the Hailstone Sword seemed to be meticulously carved out of a block of ice. At the center of the blade, the icy spiritual energy was so dense that it was almost solid. The edge of the blade was also different from the edge of an ordinary one-handed sword. The edge of the hailstone was just like its name, it was irregularly serrated.
The audience below the stage felt as if a cheetah had appeared in front of them. It was elegant yet deadly.
“Soul Compatibility, 75%! Soul, Hailstone!”
The old soul master’s voice sounded.
His eyes were filled with praise for the young girl in front of him.
A 75% compatibility with the soul meant that she was indeed a natural-born expert!
Dipsy’s face sank when he saw this.
The young girl looked provocatively at Copperfield below the stage. However, she discovered that Copperfield’s expression didn’t change at all after seeing her soul tool!
“The eldest daughter of the Cavendish family, who lives in an environment where everyone worships and serves her, definitely doesn’t know what her family has done. So what if her soul is powerful? She still grew up in such an environment.”
“She’s just a flower in a greenhouse.”
The white-clothed youth who was noticed by Copperfield at the beginning sighed coldly. He naturally also didn’t have any feelings towards such a powerful soul.
Three years ago, he entered the Magical Beast Mountain Range alone. In these three years, he had already become accustomed to fighting with magic beasts. He had experienced more than ten thousand situations where he had narrowly escaped death. During these battles, he had already developed a combat literacy that was comparable to that of border warriors.
Regardless of the consequences of today’s soul awakening, it would still be a trivial matter to him.
The reason why he had participated in the awakening of the soul tool was that he wanted to use this shortcut to directly go to the front line.
“Next, Chester Leech!”
Hearing this voice, the white-clothed youth’s eyes darkened slightly. Following that, the corners of his mouth revealed a smile that was difficult to detect.
Chester slowly walked up to the awakening platform and placed his hands on the spirit detection magic sphere.
The magic sphere trembled slightly, and a powerful soul power spread out in all directions.
A magical spell that was wrapped in raging flames gradually appeared in the air. The surging fire soul power caused everyone below the awakening platform to subconsciously take a few steps back.
A Death Hammer that was wrapped in fire slowly appeared within the magic formation. On top of it, the phantom of death itself slowly appeared!
The giant hammer landed before Chester’s eyes.
During the three years of fighting with the magical beasts, Chester had already faintly sensed his soul tool. This fire-type was naturally not out of his expectations.
“What kind of soul is this?”
“Just the soul power produced during the awakening is already so terrifying?”
The grand scene of the awakening shocked everyone.
Someone in the crowd seemed to have recognized the weapon soul and immediately ran out of the crowd…
“Soul Compatibility, 90%! Soul, Hammer of Death!”
The old soul master on the stage had a shocked expression on his face. This was a true genius!
However, the surrounding people were discussing fervently. No one knew the youth’s background.
The youth’s expression didn’t change even when he saw the soul he had awakened.
However, the three-star soul master’s eyes suddenly began to stir. Following that, a deep sense of fear spread out from his pupils.
