Chapter 007: The Light of Awakening

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

Hanna turned to Mupan and said, "Mupan, do you have any grievances with Liszt? Is it necessary to use the third soul skill, Black Feather Flurry?"

Mu Pan sighed and said, "Vice President, since you have said this, I will certainly prioritize the overall situation, so please rest assured."

The entire venue was in shock

Li Si never expected that his previous incarnation had such a tragic background, leaving him utterly speechless. It was already unfortunate to have crossed over, and to become a mere soldier was one thing, but to find out he was also a slave was simply absurd

Mupan detected the reproach in the words and couldn't help but frown, suppressing his anger as he said: "I happened to pass by just now and saw him in a conflict with Marcie, injuring someone. I couldn't stand by and criticized him a few times, but to my surprise, he even retorted against me. I, Mupan, am at least a Soul Fighter; when has a commoner ever dared to speak disrespectfully to me?"

He was referred to as Mr. Liszt! Marché was momentarily taken aback, quickly realizing that he was very likely never to avenge this grievance. With a heart full of resentment, he responded and immediately withdrew

Li Si naturally would not refuse and immediately agreed, while asking: "Vice President, you just mentioned that I am a disciple of the Li family, what does that mean? Could you tell me something about the Li family?" Seeing Han Na show a look of surprise, he explained: "It is like this, I accidentally fell while in the Earth Legion and hit my head, causing me to lose many memories, so..."

The old man chuckled and said, "I am the vice president here; you may also call me Mr. Han Na. How could you have laid hands on the chief guard? Say m.hetushucom.com to hear more."

The captain, Marshal, was left dumbfounded, his hands and feet weak, and he unconsciously took a step back. The "Master" Mupan, due to this sudden change, miraculously had the energy of the spirit horse beast emptied, and the spirit that had lost its energy quickly vanished. Mupan looked in astonishment at the empty square, then turned to see the vice president, Hanna, and Sophie, who were hurrying down, and was so surprised that he could not utter a word

In that moment of near death, a sudden flash of blue light struck Li Si like a bolt of lightning, almost touching the myriad black feathers on his body, which melted away in an instant like ice and snow. They fell straight down, dissipating into thin air even before reaching the ground

Han Na said with delight: "I am very glad that you can think this way. Even if he is not awakened later, he is still an excellent warrior, which our guild equally lacks"

As they spoke, Marchet led several guards who lifted Li Si onto a stretcher and proceeded towards the building

Originally, the Weight Empire was a great empire in the Central Plains, ruled by an emperor named Jin Chengwen. The various regions within the country were composed of numerous aristocratic families, much like how Bosen City fell under the jurisdiction of the Gong family. Every town and even village had its own aristocratic management, resembling the structure of the Zhou Dynasty after the Shang Dynasty, where the Zhou monarch governed a multitude of vassal states, with the only difference being that the vassal states were replaced by aristocratic families. The four largest aristocratic families in the Weight Empire were Yuwen, Tang, Jin, and Li. Subsequently, the Li family fell from grace due to their involvement in a coup, leading to the downfall of the entire family. This incident had far-reaching consequences; the direct relatives of the Li family and the head of the *Tu* *Shu* family were executed, while the collateral branches of the family were spared the death penalty. However, the men were either demoted to slaves or sent to the military frontiers, and all women were relegated to the status of servants. Li Si's predecessor, Li Si Te, was thus exiled to the Bosen Earth Legion as a slave soldier. The fallen nobility was even worse off than commoners, as at least commoners had the opportunity to gain promotion through military achievements. Slave soldiers, regardless of their outstanding military accomplishments, could not elevate their status. An exception existed, however; if a slave was a Soul Fighter, the situation would be different.

Li Si, I know you are a member of the Li family. I express my deep regret and sympathy regarding your family's matters. Naturally, I can understand that you have a strong sense of pride. Please do not interrupt me; let me finish speaking. The Soul Fighter is a profession that possesses many privileges and is respected by people. Have you ever considered joining the ranks of the Soul Fighters?

Please call me Li Si, not Te.

Li Si smirked; the conditions of the prison in this other world were quite good

It is not that Hanna is making a big deal out of nothing; rather, the sudden eruption of blue light from Li Si just now is highly likely to be the Awakening Light. What excites Hanna even more is that merely the Awakening Light is capable of blocking the highest soul skill of a Level 3 Soul Master

This scene is both eerie and magnificent

Li Si thought he was already dead, but when he inexplicably woke up, he found himself alone in a lavish room filled with numerous artificial flowers and plants, which, nonetheless, adorned the space quite well. The chandelier on the ceiling was exquisitely crafted, and the murals, sculptures, and books were all splendid and exquisite high-end items

Nodding in confusion, he said: "Of course I am awake; otherwise, how could I speak with you? Who are you?"

The profession of Soul Fighter has a history of over a thousand years in the realm of Soul Continent. In his youth, Hanna learned from an ancient text, whose age is impossible to verify, that the history of Soul Fighters may trace back at least ten thousand years. According to legend, when a Soul Fighter reaches the pinnacle of their cultivation, specifically after the ninth level, they can enter the realm of divine souls

... ...

"Marche, find a few people to carry Mr. Liszt into the VIP room of the building," Hanner said casually, ignoring the bruised face of Marche.

Naughty? This word is actually used to describe myself. Li Si smirked and said, "Since this is not an interrogation, let's have a chat. As for me, I cannot stand being insulted. I do not need others to respect me, but at the very least, my dignity should not be trampled upon, whether it is by the Captain of the Guards or the Soul Masters. Mr. Vice President, I know I have offended the members of the Soul Masters Guild, and I can no longer stay here. I will leave on my own; there is no need to drive me away."

It is said that once a Soul Fighter enters the realm of the Divine Soul, they are no longer referred to as Soul Fighters, but as Divine Soul Masters. As for what the Divine Soul realm truly entails, and whether Divine Soul Masters can manipulate the stars or unleash overwhelming force, Han Na is also uncertain. However, the astonishing scene displayed by Li Si just now, merely with the emergence of the Awakening Light, was already so shocking. Who can guarantee that Li Si is not a piece of uncut jade with extraordinary potential?

The old man said with a kind expression: "List, are you awake?"

As Han Na walked, he muttered to himself while looking at the *illustration* in the book: "This kid actually awakened the day after tomorrow! Sophie, you have truly found a treasure!" He quickly made his way to the bottom of the stairs, first signaling the dazed Mu Pan and Captain Marshal to come over, his expression serious yet tinged with excitement. When Sophie also arrived, he finally said: "What just happened must not be spread by any of you; just pretend that nothing occurred. Do you understand?"

Hannadao: "Who said I wanted to drive you away, Liszt..."

The already dim sky, when the pitch-black feathers came pouring down like a flood, enveloped Li Si in darkness. In that instant, it seemed as if he saw the Grim Reaper waving a scythe at him.

Vice President Han ... ... Is this considered an interrogation

The cultivation speed of a Soul Fighter is not directly proportional to age or the number of battles fought. Talent determines how far a Soul Fighter can go and what kind of achievements they can attain. Hanna certainly hopes that her guild can produce an extraordinary genius

Li Si did not know who this person was. Although he appeared harmless, he thought about how he not only had beaten the captain of the guards but also had fought with the soul warrior. Could it be that there were no consequences for such actions? ... Or was there some kind of conspiracy ...

Suddenly, an old man who resembled the White-browed Eagle King walked in, grinning at me with a smile that bore a striking resemblance to that of the Big Bad Wolf's grandmother

Li Si, as the party involved, has already collapsed on the ground, completely unconscious

Li Si laughed heartily and said, "Only those who possess the ability to summon souls can be Soul Masters; it is not something that just anyone can achieve. Are you joking with me, Vice President?"

Others may not understand, but he, Han Na, is not illiterate when it comes to *maps* and *books*

As a third-level Soul Fighter, Mupan surprisingly found himself in a fierce struggle against an ordinary person before their awakening. If this matter were to spread, it would surely cause a nationwide uproar, making everyone laugh uproariously. Naturally, he was unwilling to speak carelessly, and the Captain of the Guards, Marshe, being just an ordinary person, dared not defy the Vice President of the Berson Guild

Han glanced at him and said, "Mupan, you did nothing wrong in this matter; the honor of the Soul Masters certainly does not allow for it to be trampled upon." He pointed towards Lis and continued, "However, regardless of any misunderstandings or unpleasantness you may have had before, from now on, let your grievances come to an end. This person is very likely to awaken in the near future. As you know, our Bosen Guild has already suffered significant losses in the last battle and urgently needs to replenish fresh blood. I hope you can understand this."

Hanna smiled and said, "Are you joking? You will know in a moment. Come with me, and I will take you to a place where you can choose to continue as an ordinary guard or become a privileged Soul Fighter. Only by going there will you find the answer."

Han Na is at peace.

Hanna was unable to bear it, and said: "Haha, interesting, interesting. From the tone of your speech, it's clear that you are not just an ordinary mischievous person. Don't worry, this is not an interrogation, just a chat with you"

Hanna and Sophie stood at the top of the long staircase, far removed from the ground of the small square. Even if they were to summon their respective spirits at that moment, it would be too late to prevent Mupan's third soul skill. Although Mupan's level was merely average, the third soul skill "Black Feather Flurry" was excessively lethal for an ordinary person. Both felt a sudden heaviness in their hearts, lamenting with a deep sigh.
