When the six souls are connected, it is just like the Awakened by Heaven, a concept that exists only in imagination. Just as there has never been an Awakened by Heaven, the continent has never seen a strong person with the six souls connected.
However, compared to the Awakened by Heaven, the six souls connected is at least more believable and real. People believe it is a realm that can be achieved through effort. The realms of the strong have indeed been continuously breaking limits.
Six hundred years ago, a strong person on the continent first achieved the connection of three souls, astonishing everyone.
Two hundred and forty years ago, someone achieved the connection of four souls, once again raising the upper limit of strength.
Now, there are six renowned strong people on the continent who have reached the realm of five souls connected. People have already begun to look forward to the great perfection of the six souls connected, which might be born in this era.
But today.
The legendary and fictional Awakened by Heaven, the realm that even the top strong people on the continent need to strive for, is standing right in front of Morin and Sivan.
You say you are a legendary Awakened by Heaven, I can tolerate that.
You say you have already reached the six souls connected, I can tolerate that too.
But, you are actually a six souls connected Awakened by Heaven? What does that mean? It means that Lu Ping was born with the realm that the top strong people on the continent are still tirelessly pursuing. He was born standing at the pinnacle of the pyramid.
Is the era created by people?
The person who creates the era is still striving, but some people are born changing the era.
I don't know what to say, or what to ask.
Lu Ping's situation in the "organization" is clearly very tragic, but now, Morin and Sivan can't feel any sympathy. After knowing that this guy might be a six souls connected Awakened by Heaven, the two of them have only one thought in their hearts.
Why not me?
This inexplicable, being born with the strongest talent, why not me, why someone else?
"Ahahaha!!" Morin suddenly leaned on Sivan's wheelchair and let out a long howl to the sky.
Sivan, on the other hand, fell silent. He originally had some questions about that "organization," and about Lu Ping and Su Tang, but suddenly he couldn't muster the energy.
A six souls connected Awakened by Heaven.
These eight characters are too heavy. Anyone who hears these eight characters and doesn't go crazy with jealousy already has quite good psychological resilience.
One is silent, the other is screaming. Sivan and Morin each digest the meaning of these eight characters. Su Tang, who clearly knew everything, couldn't stop laughing at their unhidden envy and jealousy.
"You must have made a mistake somewhere!" Morin was still struggling, hoping for a misunderstanding, otherwise life is too unfair. Others are born with the six souls connected, but what about me? I am the inheritor of the Mo family's bloodline who can't sense the soul of force.
"Maybe!" Lu Ping was indeed not very sure. The Soul Binding and Restriction made it impossible for him to accurately gauge his soul power. Sivan's determination that he must be above the connected realm was also because the soul power he unleashed had overwhelmed a connected person.
Sivan took a few deep breaths to adjust his emotions and was about to ask a few more questions about his previous doubts when a shout came from behind.
The voice didn't use soul power, it was a loud shout, and even Sivan, who didn't have the soul of sound, could hear it clearly. The four of them turned around and saw a fat old man with a big belly running over quickly.
The four of them were just surprised, but if this scene were to happen at the Xianfeng Academy, many people's eyes would fall out and shatter. When did their Dean Balayan ever run so recklessly, disregarding his image? He hated the fat on his chin and belly, but now, as he ran, the fat jiggled, making it all the more noticeable.
"Balayan?" Sivan was the first to recognize him.
"Oh? Who is that?" Lu Ping asked, and Morin also looked puzzled.
"The Dean of Xianfeng Academy," Sivan said.
"Is he calling us?" Morin said.
"Besides us, there doesn't seem to be anyone else," Lu Ping looked around; there were only the four of them on this road.
In no time, Balayan had caught up with the four of them. Despite being fat, he didn't sweat or pant after this sprint, showing that his soul power realm was quite extraordinary.
"Dean Balayan, are you calling us?" Sivan, who recognized Balayan, asked on behalf of everyone.
Balayan also recognized Sivan. For two consecutive years, the major exams had tarnished the reputation of Xianfeng, and before Lu Ping collapsed two towers, this was the most unbearable thing for Balayan. This time, he was once happy that Sivan couldn't participate due to injury, otherwise, the fourth-year Soul Tower's twelfth floor would have had a similar arrangement targeting Su Tang.
"Oh, it's Sivan!" But now, Balayan had a kind and caring look, smiling warmly, "I heard you were injured. How are you doing?"
"I'm fine," Sivan said.
"That's good. Don't worry about the major exam. I'll definitely give you a chance to retake it. If Old Guo doesn't agree, I'll talk to him," Balayan said, putting on a good-guy act. Through his conversation with Sivan, he was trying to establish his image before turning to the target he had left the unfinished exam to personally chase.
Lu Ping?
No! Not him.
Lu Ping was Balayan's ultimate goal, but the person he had personally chased after, disregarding his image, was not Lu Ping.
"Student Su Tang, your condition seems quite serious. Why are you in such a hurry? I just arranged for a doctor to examine you, but you left without a trace," Balayan turned to Su Tang and began his kind and caring act.
From this, it was already clear that Balayan was a deep schemer.
To win over Lu Ping, the usual preferential treatment for students wouldn't work. Lu Ping's strength even surpassed that of a connected person, and this was with the Soul Binding and Restriction. Such strength, whether at Zhaifeng or Xianfeng, had no resources to attract him.
So, he had to work on other aspects that Lu Ping cared about, and even Balayan, who knew nothing about Lu Ping, saw an answer.
Su Tang.
This girl was undoubtedly someone he valued greatly. The current awkward situation for Balayan, due to his cheating arrangement, had injured Su Tang, which definitely made Lu Ping very dissatisfied with Xianfeng Academy. He had already lost the first battle, and it might be a decisive one.
So, he acted decisively, quickly arranging the academy's affairs and then personally chasing after them. He needed to express his stance quickly to wash away Lu Ping's bad impression of Xianfeng Academy, which might give him a chance.
In a short time, Balayan had used all his cunning and put on all the right postures. But Su Tang simply smiled at his concern.
"I'm fine. Just need more rest and more water," she said.
