Chapter 6

The student who was closest to the arena and directly facing the Spirit Soul Stone was the first to notice something amiss and shouted in shock.

"What?! There's actually a Spirit Soul potential? Impossible!"

This one stone stirred a thousand waves, and all the students turned their gazes toward it.

Zuo Heng was also taken aback, while Wu Qiyue's body trembled slightly. Her watery eyes flickered, rippling like waves.

Time seemed to freeze, and everyone forgot to breathe. On the transparent Spirit Soul Stone, a light indeed began to glow slowly.

"Indeed, it's the light of a Spirit Soul!"

Qin Zhen was greatly shaken and, in his shock, shouted, "Quick, see what quality it is!"

The Spirit Soul test can display up to nine soul lights. Every three lights form a rank, which are respectively lower, middle, and upper grades. According to legend, there have been cases of ten soul lights, which are of the highest quality.

Yang Qingxuan, however, remained much calmer. When his hand touched the Spirit Soul Stone, a very comfortable feeling spread in his heart, even nourishing his soul.

At this moment, his main soul had returned, and after the fusion, his soul power far exceeded that of ordinary martial artists. It was not surprising that the light of a Spirit Soul would be born.

But at this moment, his left shoulder twitched slightly, and an indescribable sensation flowed through his body's meridians.

"It's the power of that mark!"

"Oh no, what is that mark? It's out of control!"

Yang Qingxuan was greatly alarmed, feeling a violent force surge from the mark, flowing through his meridians into the Spirit Soul Stone!

"Bang!"

The Spirit Soul Stone suddenly exploded, shattering into pieces.

Yang Qingxuan felt a blur before his eyes. The soul light on the Spirit Soul Stone seemed to burst into ten rays instantly, then the light grew intensely bright and exploded.

"What... What's happening?"

Everyone was stunned. The situation of the Spirit Soul Stone exploding was unheard of.

Wu Qiyue's whole body trembled violently, and her jade-like fingers, hidden in her long sleeves, trembled slightly.

In the depths of her lively black eyes, a large number of blood vessels gathered, forming fine circles, creating a strange array pattern.

Wu Qiyue felt somewhat anxious and blamed herself, "It's all because I was too careless. Just now, it seemed like ten soul lights, but I didn't use the Green Eye, so I couldn't see clearly!"

At the moment the Spirit Soul Stone exploded, a thunderclap suddenly sounded in the sky, followed by a gathering of clouds and thunder!

A point of purple flame raged in the sky, igniting the entire sky!

A terrifying pressure descended from the sky, as if a thousand troops and ten thousand horses were trampling through the air, sweeping across the world!

However, what was most shocking was that this pressure not only covered the Tiancong Academy but also the entire Cangnan Kingdom!

"What's happening? What's going on?!"

From the arena to the entire academy, even the capital city of Baisui in the Cangnan Kingdom, everyone fell into great panic.

All the strong people in the city raised their heads to look at the terrifying sky phenomenon.

"This is..."

Wu Qiyue hurriedly raised her head, a green light flashing in her eyes.

In the depths of her eyes, countless tiny blood droplets gathered, forming millions of chains that intertwined and formed an array!

On the array, a giant green eye slowly opened.

The green eye, with a dark gray luster, was calm like a black sea when it focused, but when the light flickered, it was deep like the universe, as if it could encompass countless galaxies and see through all phenomena.

Wu Qiyue's fingers, hidden in her long sleeves, formed a seal, trying to use the "Green Eye" to see through the Spirit Soul phenomenon. But the moment she focused, it was as if a purple lightning bolt shot through the void, "Boom!" shattering the giant eye, and the entire array collapsed!

Wu Qiyue's whole body trembled, not only was the Green Eye shattered, but it felt like her mind exploded, the terrifying force directly impacting her spirit sea and internal organs!

She instantly lost her senses, her mind becoming blank, as if in the vast void of consciousness, a vague figure was looking down at the earth, coldly saying, "What are you? Dare to spy on my Spirit Soul!"

Wu Qiyue shuddered, as if regaining some consciousness, boundless fear surged from all sides, seeping into her soul.

At this moment, she realized how foolish and terrifying her actions were, and two streams of blood flowed from her autumn-water-like eyes.

The phenomenon was like a deity descending upon the earth, her Spirit Soul as humble as an ant, kneeling before the king, trembling.

Wu Qiyue stood below the arena, her lips pale.

Her mind was filled with nothing but fear, like a small boat adrift in a vast sea, at the mercy of the waves, ready to capsize at any moment.

The surrounding Zuo Heng, Qin Zhen, and others, though they did not dare to spy on the Spirit Soul phenomenon, were also under immense pressure, each one terrified and running true essence to resist the terrifying pressure!

"Thud!"

"Thud!"

Several figures could no longer bear it and fell to their knees on the spot!

Zuo Heng, drenched in cold sweat, trembling all over, finally felt a pain in his chest, spat out a mouthful of blood, and "thud" fell to his knees, his limbs supporting him on the ground, trembling like an ant!

Next, Yu Liang's face turned pale, and he knelt down, convulsing and trembling on the ground like someone with epilepsy.

The other students all watched this scene in horror. Although they all had Spirit Soul potential, not all of them had awakened their Spirit Souls.

Without awakening a Spirit Soul, they didn't even have the qualifications to feel the pressure!

Qin Zhen was also trembling violently, large beads of cold sweat rolling down his forehead, his face pale. Even a man of iron was like a leaf in the wind, appearing weak, humble, and helpless.

Yang Qingxuan stared at the sky, somewhat dazed. In the vast expanse of heaven and earth, above the dark clouds, it seemed as if a towering figure was standing, stepping on purple flames, towering between heaven and earth.

At this moment, in a large secret room within the Tiancong Academy.

Under the dim light, a ten-zhang square array was slowly rotating, emitting a gentle glow. A seated elder, with white beard like snow, wearing a dark blue robe without a speck of dust, was floating in the air.

Only those who reached the Original Martial Realm could fly in the air.

This elder, who could sit in the air, was at least a great expert of the Original Martial Realm.

The elder was in deep meditation when the secret room suddenly shook violently, and the light of the array also flickered.

The seal in his hand condensed, and he was about to form a shadow behind him, but the shock wave shattered the shadow instantly!

"Spit!"

The elder suddenly opened his eyes, spitting out a mouthful of blood, his face filled with shock.

He stretched out his hands, looking down at his arms, seeing ripples floating from his arms to his fingertips, trembling slightly.

"Spirit Soul suppression!"

The elder struggled to utter these four words. The world only knew that Spirit Souls were divided into four grades: supreme, upper, middle, and lower, but they did not know that this was just a small classification.

In the hierarchy of Spirit Souls, there were four major levels: Imperial, Royal, Sovereign, and Common.

The elder's Spirit Soul was a Sovereign-level existence. Even in the entire northern five kingdoms, he was one of the few outstanding figures.

Now, he was actually suppressed by a mere aura!

A huge wave of shock surged in the elder's heart. He did not dare to treat his injuries and hurriedly opened the secret room door and rushed out.

In the next moment, he rose into the air, flying ten thousand miles above the Tiancong Academy.

In the sky, purple clouds raged, forming a vast purple sea, like purple dragon scales covering the sky!

The terrifying pressure spread with the light, blinding and shocking the soul!

The elder did not dare to look more, suppressing his inner shock, he quickly clasped his hands and bowed deeply, shouting loudly, "I do not know which noble has descended upon the Baisui City Tiancong Academy. Qing Buli failed to welcome you from afar, please forgive me."

The elder was none other than the dean of the Tiancong Academy, revered as the "King of Martial Arts" in the northern five kingdoms, Qing Buli.

He stood respectfully to one side, not daring to raise his head, shouting loudly three times, but received no response.

Qing Buli cautiously raised his eyes and saw the raging purple flames, accompanied by lightning and thunder. Looking closely, he could see a thundercloud like a dragon behind the dark clouds, carrying a dazzling golden light, slowly descending.

A flash of inspiration suddenly struck him, as if a lightning bolt had passed through his mind, and he suddenly remembered something, exclaiming, "Ten Waves, Ten Decisions... A thousand troops retreat... This Spirit Soul is... This Spirit Soul is..."

Instantly, a huge fear enveloped his heart, and he could not bring himself to say the rest.
