Douluo Continent: Starting with the Fire-Breathing Dragon Martial Soul!

"roar!"

Xiao Lin let out a low wolf howl, his first spirit ring suddenly lit up, and his body was covered with a faint gray light.

First Soul Skill: Wolf Transformation.

The specific effect is to increase one's own speed and attack power.

After unleashing his wolf transformation, Xiao Lin displayed an extremely fierce aura, his wolf claws heading straight for the little fire dragon.

Faced with Xiao Lin's charge, Lin Mo stood still and silently gave instructions to the little fire dragon in his mind.

The flames on the little fire dragon's tail suddenly intensified, as it faced the charging demon wolf spirit master.

He opened his mouth and spat out a series of fist-sized, scorching fireballs, precisely blocking Xiao Lin's path.

This is one of the skills that Charmander has mastered: Ember!

Xiao Lin reacted extremely quickly, immediately twisting his body to dodge most of the fireballs. He then swung out his wolf claws one after another, scattering the remaining scattered fireballs that he could not dodge.

With a few "poof" sounds, he shattered the fireball, but his forward momentum also faltered, and the burning sensation on his hand made him frown.

The temperature of the flames was much higher than he had expected!

However, the moment he shattered the fireball, the little dragon moved!

It stomped its limbs on the ground, and the only yellow spirit ring on its body suddenly lit up, instantly covering its body with a dazzling flame.

His entire body transformed into a streak of fire and meteor, hurtling towards Xiao Lin at incredible speed—Flash Charge!

Xiao Lin had just neutralized the attack from the sparks and was currently in a state of transition, where his old strength had just been depleted and new strength had not yet been generated.

The intense heat and powerful impact made his heart pound; it was too late to dodge completely.

He could only barely cross his arms to protect himself, pouring all his soul power into his arms, preparing to rely on the physical enhancement brought by the demon wolf martial soul and the first soul skill to take the hit head-on.

"boom!"

The little fire dragon crashed solidly into Xiao Lin's crossed arms. Xiao Lin felt a tremendous force, and his arms were in excruciating pain, as if they were about to break.

He staggered backward uncontrollably, his protective soul power rapidly depleted under the intense heat of the flames, his sleeves instantly charred, and a burning sensation shot through his skin.

He was greatly alarmed; the power and impact of the flames far exceeded his expectations.

That one move put him at a complete disadvantage.

The little fire dragon, having landed successfully, didn't pause. Upon landing, it opened its mouth again, unleashing another barrage of sparks that rained down on the unsteady Xiao Lin.

Xiao Lin's arms were numb and he was staggering. He had no way to avoid the spark attack that followed.

The spirit ring on the little fire dragon's body once again burst forth with dazzling light, and he shot out again, once again activating the Flame Charge.

He seemed determined to finish off Xiao Lin in one fell swoop.

At this critical moment, a figure appeared in front of Xiao Lin like a ghost.

It's Director Xue!

With a gentle wave of his hand, a chilling aura instantly spread across the entire area.

A snow lotus ice shield, formed from countless crystalline snowflakes, appeared out of thin air and blocked Xiao Lin's path.

"Pfft pfft pfft pfft..."

Dense sparks struck the ice shield, producing a series of soft sounds and stirring up bursts of white mist, but they could not shake the ice shield in the slightest.

The cold air emitted by the Ice Shield passive extinguished all the sparks.

At the same time, Director Xue flicked her other hand, and white light spots radiating coldness and life force flew out and merged into Xiao Lin's burned arms.

Xiao Lin felt a cool sensation on his arm, and the burning pain quickly subsided. His reddened skin recovered at a visible speed.

After Director Xue rescued Xiao Lin and healed his superficial burns, she turned around, her gaze complex as she looked at Lin Mo and the little fire dragon, and announced loudly:

"The assessment is over. Lin Mo wins!"

He couldn't help but feel grateful that Dean Wang Zongchang of Notting Academy had recommended Lin Mo to this school, rather than to academies like Blazing Fire or Beastman Academy.

Based on the strength Lin Mo just displayed, especially the powerful explosive force shown by his little fire dragon martial soul, he definitely deserves the title of genius.

With just two moves, and even with most of their power restrained, he was forced to intervene as the Soul Emperor to save the person.

Despite the surprised looks on everyone's faces, Lin Mo remained completely calm.

Xiao Lin's strength is indeed impressive. As a one-ring Soul Master with a wolf-type Martial Soul, his strength is far superior to Xiao Chenyu of Notting Academy.

If his soul power level were to increase by another ten levels and he were to acquire another hundred-year soul ring, he might have a chance to rival the Little Fire Dragon.

But if that's all there is to it, it's far from enough!

……

Xiao Lin looked at his rapidly recovering arm, then looked up at Lin Mo, who had already retracted the little fire dragon and still looked calm. His face was full of frustration and disbelief.

He hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help asking, "Lin Mo...you, are you perhaps the legendary one with innate full soul power?"

Upon hearing Xiao Lin's question, the other four spectators also pricked up their ears, eager to hear what he had to say for himself.

Lin Mo shook his head, his tone still calm: "No. My innate soul power is level six." He paused, then added,

"Moreover, when it first awakened its martial soul, it was judged to be a useless martial soul."

"Level 6 innate? A useless martial soul?" Xiao Lin exclaimed in shock, his eyes wide open, feeling as if he were listening to a foreign language.

How could a martial soul with innate level six soul power talent be judged as a useless martial soul? This completely overturned his understanding.

If the little fire dragon that Lin Mo just released was a useless martial soul, then what about him, who was easily defeated by the little fire dragon at the same cultivation level?

Are they even worse than trash?

He subconsciously turned his head to look at Director Xue, his eyes filled with a desire for confirmation.

Director Xue looked at Xiao Lin, who seemed utterly devastated, and nodded slightly, confirming Lin Mo's statement: "The information recorded in his Soul Master's Notebook is indeed true."

After receiving confirmation from Director Xue, Xiao Lin and the other four students fell completely silent, looking at Lin Mo as if he were a monster.

Today they have witnessed what a true genius is—no, this has already exceeded their understanding of the word "genius."

The fleeting glimpse of the snow lotus-shaped ice shield and healing light that Director Xue had just created confirmed Lin Mo's earlier suspicions.

Snow Lotus Martial Soul, surname Xue... This Director Xue is most likely a member of the royal family of the Heaven Dou Empire.

In his memory, ten thousand years later, during the era of Peerless Tang Sect, the Heaven Dou Empire split into two major empires: Heaven Soul and Fighting Spirit.

Although it is unclear what the inherited martial soul of the Douling royal family is.

However, considering that Vina, the Heavenly Soul Princess, possesses two martial souls—the Snow Lotus and the Brain Martial Soul—

The inherited martial soul of the Heavenly Soul Empire's royal family should be the Snow Lotus, not the Swan martial soul of the current Heavenly Dou royal family.

It now seems that in this era, the royal family of the Heaven Dou Empire may be simultaneously inheriting both the Swan and Snow Lotus martial souls.
