n“Father, Mother, what are you guys talking about? Why don’t I get it?” Lan Xuanyu looked at his parents, confused. His long and curled eyelashes, as well as his doubtful face, made him appear extremely adorable.
nNan Cheng could no longer resist, and she hugged her son as she gave him a peck on the cheek. She giggled and replied, “It’s nothing, your father will tell you more about Spirit Masters next time, alright?”
n“En.” Lan Xuanyu nodded as if he understood what she was talking about.
n“Son, release your spirit out for your father to see.” Lan Xiao gazed at his son in envy. He was sure that Nan Cheng had kissed their son far more than she had kissed him.
n“How do I release it, Father?” Lan Xuanyu asked ignorantly.

nLan Xiao: “Gather your focus and think about the grass that appeared before. After that, try to feel if there is any peculiar existence within your own body.” Lan Xuanyu blinked a couple of times before he quietly sensed the changes within his body. Just as he gathered his focus, the instant itch that overwhelmed him from within frightened him affected his concentration.
nHowever, the itch suddenly turned into a warm flow that pervaded through his entire body, replacing the tingles with an extremely comfortable feeling. Subconsciously, Lan Xuanyu raised both his hands up.
nA faint and serene blue light flickered on his hands as two tendrils of grass bore out from his palms, skyrocketing upward to a length of almost 2 meters before stopping.
nThis time, Lan Xiao took the time to scrutinize the grass.
nThe blue grass that emitted a faint luster was somewhat supple and strong but was ultimately no different from a Blue Silver Grass.
nBut it was big, much bigger than the ordinary Blue Silver Grass.
n“It’s really not the same.”
n“It’s really big!” Nan Cheng was also researching the ancient spirit beasts and was naturally knowledgeable and familiar with the Blue Silver Grass.
nLan Xiao: “Take the Spirit Power Test Apparatus over and let Xuanyu have a go at it.”
n“Alright.” Nan Cheng walked into the room and retrieved the Spirit Power Test Apparatus. The small apparatus was an essential item for all families that had Spirit Masters.
n
n
nSince the evolution of Soul Land and Douluo planet thousands of years ago, the upper limit of spirit power ranks had increased from 100 to 120.
nAny existence above Rank 99 was considered to be in the domain of gods.
nThe small Spirit Power Test Apparatus was sufficient to test for spirit power below the ranks of 70.
n“Son, grab onto the two handles at the side and release the special existence within your body. It would be just like releasing your spirit.” Nan Cheng handed the apparatus over to Lan Xuanyu.
nThe Spirit Power Test Apparatus was a sphere with a circular screen on the front surface and two handles at the side.
nThe gadget didn’t require an external Soul Guidance reservoir as the user would naturally imbue their own spirit power during the test. The process of supplying spirit power into the apparatus was naturally the process of completing the test.
nLan Xuanyu held onto the handles immediately. The comfortable sensation after the tingle felt great, leaving him with less fear toward the entire process.
nThe tingling sensation came out once again, but he immediately sensed an extremely comfortable energy that flowed out of his hand and straight into the apparatus.
nLan Xiao and Nan Cheng focused on the apparatus.
nThe screen flickered for a moment as though numbers were about to appear, but they disappeared as quickly as they came.
n
n
nThe two raised their heads and looked at each other simultaneously. They then saw the confusion within each other’s eyes.
nThe result meant that there was no spirit power at all!
nBut Lan Xuanyu’s Blue Silver Grass appeared to be unique; how was it possible that it had no spirit power?
nJust as they were in confusion and disbelief, the Spirit Power Test Apparatus suddenly rumbled before a pillar of light rushed out. The congealed white brilliance of light that was more than a chi in length was as firm as a pillar.
nThe sudden appearance scared Lan Xiao and Nan Cheng, but the expressions in their eyes were immediately replaced with overwhelming shock.
nOne chi?
nWhat did one chi entail?
nA display of an inch meant Rank 1 spirit power.
nWhile a display of a chi meant Rank 10 spirit power.
nTo any newly awakened spirit-power user, Rank 10 was the ultimate limit!
n
n
nThat meant that their child, Lan Xuanyu, had an Innate Full Spirit Body!
nInnate Full Spirit Body!
nEven in the modern and developed age of Soul Guidance Technology, the occurrence of having an Innate Full Spirit Body was extremely rare.
nThey only appeared in large clans from ancient powerhouses or those with extremely powerful spirits.
nFollowing the introduction of Soul Guidance Technology into the interplanetary layer, science and technology prevailed and occupied the dominant seat. This was unlike the Soul Land era where the position of Spirit Masters that formed the core of the world could change at a whim.
nBut even so, Spirit Masters continued to be a noble profession.
nJust like how Nan Cheng’s rapid military rise was largely related to her being a Spirit Master rank Spirit Master.
nEspecially when the unique profession of Spirit Masters was the prerequisite to joining the army’s Special Forces.
nMany Soul Guidance Weapons were better handled by Spirit Masters.
nThus, although Spirit Masters were no longer of prime existence, they remained as an extremely grand profession.
n
n
nBeing a genius and having an Innate Full Spirit Body were factors for Innate Full Spirit Body Spirit User, and these were all highly regarded by the federation.
nJust their appearance was enough to receive scholarships all across the board.
nIn other words, before completing his studies at an advanced Spirit Master Institute, all expenses, including an allowance, would be covered by the Federation.
nWith every rise in rank of the spirit toward the Spirit Master rank, the Federation would provide gifts and preferential favors to the spirit power user.
nLife was equal, but upon the spirit awakening, everyone would be automatically classified into different grades.
nSo long as there were no unique circumstances, Spirit Masters with Innate Full Spirit Bodies would be able to train and reach Rank 99 and above to become Title Douluos with the Federation’s perfect training regime.
nAnd that was already at the highest level in the Federation.
nExactly like the hierarchy in the ancient times where nobility trampled over commoners.
nSix-year-olds would have spirits directly related to their parents because it was hereditary.
nBut it wasn’t definite, as spirit mutations and variations would occasionally occur.
nSome variations might be bad, but some mutations might result in even stronger spirits.
nA mutation that resulted in an Innate Full Spirit Body was definitely considered an instant success.
nAnd right at this moment, Lan Xuanyu’s spirit was definitely an Innate Full Spirit Body.
nDespite it being a Blue Silver Grass!
n“In our history, there had only been one person with the Blue Silver Grass spirit that was considered to be an Innate Full Spirit Body. Even the one hailed as the savior of the world who had the Blue Silver Emperor didn’t have the Innate Full Spirit Body,” Nan Cheng muttered to herself.
nLan Xiao frowned. “You mean to say that Xuanyu’s spirit is a Blue Silver Emperor?”
nNan Cheng laughed. “What other better explanations?”
nLan Xiao shook his head and replied, “No, I don’t think that’s right. If Lan Xuanyu had been birthed ordinarily, I would have agreed with you. Although there are very little records of the Blue Silver Emperor, you cannot forget how Lan Xuanyu came about.”
nAfter all, Lan Xuanyu was birthed from an egg!
nIt meant that Lan Xuanyu wasn’t related to the plant series of spirits.
n“If not, what could it be?”
nAt this moment, Lan Xuanyu was gazing at the white pillar of light curiously as the warm feeling within his body became more intense, as though some power was constantly surging out and making him feel restricted.
nSince birth, his constitution had been no different from any ordinary human, only that he was slightly weaker than peers his age.
nBut at this moment, he clearly felt that he had some unique strength.
nLan Xiao retrieved the Spirit Power Test Apparatus from Lan Xuanyu and knelt on one knee. “Xuanyu, can you promise Father one thing?”
nLan Xuanyu nodded his head. “Ok. What is it, Father?”
nLan Xiao: “You can never tell anyone of the test result you have obtained. If anyone asks about your spirit rank, tell them it is at the third rank.”
n
