Douluo Dragon King: Light and Darkness, Starting with the Punishment of Light

"Xiao Wei, come over here and test your mental strength and innate soul power."

Leng Yaozhu waved to Zhou Wei and saw him standing there in a daze, so she couldn't help but smile.

"It's okay, Xiao Wei, don't be nervous," she said softly, as if she could see through Zhou Wei's anxiety.

"Soul power and mental power don't mean anything, besides..."

She paused, her gaze sweeping over Dahl on Zhou Wei's shoulder and Sarod beside him, a satisfied smile flashing in her eyes.

"I believe in you, sister. Such a high-quality martial soul can't be low-quality."

As she spoke, the staff had already gotten busy.

In the center of the room, a crystal ball slowly rose from the ground, glowing softly under the light.

The staff member gestured to Zhou Wei: "Young Master Zhou Wei, please place your right hand on the crystal ball."

Zhou Wei took a deep breath and stepped forward.

The next second, a crack quietly appeared in the ceiling, and a finely crafted metal helmet slowly descended, steadily covering Zhou Wei's head.

A faint buzzing sound came from the inside of the helmet, and a pale blue light flickered slightly.

Zhou Wei's right hand had just touched the crystal ball.

hum!

A dazzling light burst forth instantly!

The dazzling gold light spread rapidly at a visible speed from the point where his palm touched the crystal ball, illuminating the entire awakening room in the blink of an eye!

The light was warm and intense, just like the golden pillar of light that Dahl had when he awakened.

"Innate full soul power!"

Someone exclaimed in surprise, their voice filled with disbelief.

But the changes didn't stop there.

A soft humming sound continued, and the metal helmet on Zhou Wei's head began to shimmer with a soft white light.

The staff member next to him stared intently at the connected soul guide screen, where the numbers began to jump wildly.

Starting from scratch, soaring to new heights!

100...150...180...200...

Finally, the value gradually stabilized and settled at a certain level.

211!

The staff member stared wide-eyed, speechless for a long time.

Zhou Wei was taken aback when he saw the numbers they reported:

211? What's the minimum score required to get into a top university?

"Innate full soul power... 211 points of spiritual power, this is... the Innate Spiritual Realm!"

The staff outside could no longer contain themselves and gasped in surprise, their faces filled with shock.

Several people turned to look at Leng Yaozhu and offered their congratulations with clasped hands.

"Congratulations, Tower Master Leng! Young Master Zhou Wei's talent is truly enviable!"

"Innate full soul power! Spiritual power at the Spiritual Realm! This is a once-in-a-century talent!"

Zhou Wei listened to these compliments and slowly came to his senses.

He certainly knew what that meant.

After a human awakens their Martial Soul, in addition to the type of Martial Soul determining the strength of a Soul Master, innate Soul Power is also crucial.

Having full innate soul power is the highest soul power a normal soul master can achieve innately, meaning that they will have a head start in their future cultivation path and achieve twice the results with half the effort.

But what truly made these Spirit Tower staff members, who were used to seeing geniuses, lose their composure was not the innate full soul power.

While rare, it shouldn't have shocked them so much.

What's truly outrageous is that 211 points of mental energy.

Zhou Wei remembered clearly that in the Douluo Continent today, soul beasts are gradually heading towards extinction due to continuous hunting by humans.

The traditional Soul Ring system is no longer viable and has been replaced by Soul Spirits.

The more powerful the spirit, the more the spirit master needs to possess strong spiritual power to communicate with and form a contract with it.

Therefore, the importance of mental strength is self-evident in this era.

The realm of spiritual power is divided into six major realms:

The Spirit Origin Realm has a spirit value between 1 and 100 points. This is the most basic level of spirit, and one can form contracts with two ten-year-old soul spirits or one hundred-year-old soul spirit.

The Spirit Realm requires a Spirit value between 100 and 500 points. Upon reaching this realm, one can form contracts with two hundred-year-old soul spirits or one thousand-year-old soul spirit!

And myself.

He started at the Spirit Realm.

Zhou Wei took a deep breath, suppressing the surging emotions in his heart.

This is a true example of seizing the initiative from the outset.

He reached the spiritual realm that others could only achieve after years of painstaking cultivation, on the very first day of his awakening.

A thousand-year-old soul.

What others can only dream of will become the starting point for his first spirit ring.

"Come on, Xiao Wei, let me take you to choose a spirit!"

"With your current mental strength and physical strength, Xiao Qiu, you'll be fine even if the first soul you absorb is a thousand years old."

"A thousand-year-old soul?"

Just as the two were about to leave the awakening room, Leng Yaozhu suddenly stopped.

She turned around, her gaze falling on the leading staff member, her tone calm yet carrying an undeniable authority: "Don't report anything about Zhou Wei today."

The staff member was stunned, and the record book in his hand froze in mid-air.

"This..." He looked troubled. "Lord Leng, isn't this against the rules?"

"Um?"

Leng Yaozhu didn't say anything more, she just stared at him calmly.

That gaze was calm as still water, yet it sent a chill down the staff’s spine, as if they were being stared at by an ancient ferocious beast.

He suddenly remembered who this person in front of him was.

Four-word Battle Armor Master, Heavenly Phoenix Douluo, Deputy Tower Master of the Spirit Transmission Tower.

Let alone a mere recorder like him, even if the tower master himself came, he would have to respectfully address him as "Your Majesty".

"What do you know?"

Leng Yaozhu withdrew her gaze, her tone indifferent.

"I'm doing this to protect him. Don't reveal the news yet, otherwise someone might try to harm him."

She paused, then lowered her voice slightly: "This is also for the benefit of our Spirit Pagoda. Understand?"

The moment the words fell, an invisible aura quietly spread out.

The staff member felt a sudden tightness in their chest, and cold sweat instantly beaded on their forehead.

He nodded repeatedly, stammering, "I...I understand! I understand! Rest assured, Tower Master Leng, not a single word of what happened today will be leaked out!"

"Um."

Leng Yaozhu nodded slightly, her imposing aura subdued.

"Okay, that's all, go on with your work."

The staff members, feeling as if they had been granted a pardon, bowed and withdrew.

After the staff member walked away, Leng Yaozhu turned around and waved to Zhou Wei: "Let's go."

Zhou Wei followed in her footsteps and couldn't help but ask, "Sister, what was that just now...?"

"Actually, I'm doing this for your own good."

Leng Yaozhu said calmly, without stopping.

"A tree that stands out in the forest will surely be felled by the wind."

Your performance today was so amazing; if word gets out, it might not be a good thing.

Zhou Wei nodded thoughtfully.

"If this gets back to the Tower Master, it will be even worse," Leng Yaozhu added, her tone tinged with coldness.

Zhou Wei's heart skipped a beat: "You mean... the Master of the Ancient Tower?"

There is only one person in the entire Spirit Transmission Tower who can be called "Tower Master" by Leng Yaozhu, the deputy tower master.

The East Wind Through the Ages.

"That's right."

Leng Yaozhu paused slightly, glanced at him sideways, and spoke in an unfriendly tone.

"Qian Gu Dong Feng is not a good person."

"Your performance today was so amazing, especially at the Leng family..."

She paused, then added, "I'm afraid he'll be wary of us."

She continued walking forward, her voice calm yet chilling: "Either be his dog, or be suppressed by him. There is no third way."

Zhou Wei followed silently behind, his mind churning with thoughts.

Before he traveled through time, he couldn't remember some of the details from the original story very clearly.

But I still have some impression of the character Qian Gu Dong Feng—he was definitely not a good person.

The only thing he remembered was the glory of the Qian Gu family's three extreme achievements.

There's also that widely circulated joke—"Dongfeng Express, mission accomplished."

But more importantly...

Zhou Wei looked up and glanced at the fiery red figure in front of him.

He had heard some of the power struggle between the Qian Gu family and the Leng family in the Spirit Transmission Tower.

Although Leng Yaozhu is the deputy tower master, Qian Gu Dongfeng is the true controller.

The two families have been locked in a power struggle for years and are now irreconcilable enemies.

Leng Yaozhu is good to him, perhaps she really sees him as a younger brother.

But what about the eternal east wind?

A genius boy who grew up in the Leng family awakens twin martial souls, possesses innate full soul power, and has reached the Spiritual Power Realm.

If such a person grows up, it is not impossible for the Leng family to surpass the Qian Gu family in the future.

Would Qian Gu Dong Feng just stand by and watch this happen?

Zhou Wei lowered his eyes, his mind clear.

Will not.

Given that person's personality, they would nip any threat in the bud.
