Ding! [ you have awakened unknown rank hybrid type Martial soul]
He was then transported back to the mythic rank platform. In awe, he inspected his inner soul sea and made his first connection with his martial soul. Instantly, sword chi and sword intent surged to unimaginable heights, manifesting a colossal sword in the sky visible to all. Accompanying the sword were nine mythical creatures, genuflecting in reverence around its mighty presence.
As Ares observed his martial soul, he marveled at the transformation of the black sheathed sword. It had turned into a resplendent golden sword adorned with nine unique inscriptions, each representing a different pattern and color. Surrounding the sheathed sword were nine distinct platforms, each corresponding to a specific inscription. The shape of each inscription and its corresponding platform mirrored one another. For instance, the first inscription, resembling lightning, had a platform revolving around the sword in a similar lightning-like shape. On this platform lay the mythical beast known as the Azure Thunder Dragon, its eyes closed in slumber.
The other inscriptions and their respective platforms and beasts were:
Crimson Flame Phoenix: Inscription and platform shaped like flames, featuring swirling patterns and fiery tendrils spreading outward.
Verdant Earth Tortoise: Inscription and platform shaped like rugged earth, displaying layered patterns reminiscent of rocks and earthy formations.
Sapphire Frost Tiger: Inscription and platform shaped like ice crystals, exhibiting sharp, icy patterns and frosty motifs.
Golden Gale Gryphon: Inscription and platform shaped like swirling winds, adorned with intricate patterns resembling gusts of wind and feather-like designs.
Celestial Azure Leviathan: Inscription and platform shaped like flowing water, featuring wave-like patterns and intricate ripples reminiscent of a vast ocean.
Emerald Forest Wolf: Inscription and platform shaped like tangled vines, adorned with leafy patterns and an overall organic design resembling a dense forest.
Obsidian Shadow Panther: Inscription and platform shaped like swirling shadows, displaying dark and mysterious patterns reminiscent of the interplay of light and darkness.
Pearl Moon Hare: Inscription and platform shaped like a crescent moon, adorned with delicate and graceful patterns resembling moonlight and lunar motifs.
The extraordinary phenomenon of the awakened martial soul was witnessed by the entire city, capturing the attention of all NPCs above level 50 and level 100 while some extraordinary existence managed to sense something even across the servers. Word spread quickly, and NPCs from all corners of the city flocked to the awakening site, drawn by the awe-inspiring display of power and the presence of the legendary mythical creatures.
Ares couldn't help but feel a profound connection with his martial soul and the enigmatic beasts surrounding his sheathed sword.
As the system chimed in with its notifications, Ares listened attentively to the information provided.
Ding! [As the host has already awakened the bronze level sword intent, the martial soul Azure Thunder Dragon has also awakened. The host can now utilize all the abilities of this martial soul.]
Ding! [Due to the immense power of the sword martial soul, it is currently being sealed by nine powerful beast martial souls. As the host's sword intent level increases, he will gain the ability to withstand the sword martial soul's power, thereby freeing other mythical beast martial souls from the task of sealing the sword. At present, only the first level of sword intent is available, allowing the Azure Thunder Dragon to be freed from its role as a seal, as the host is now capable of bearing its power with his sword intent. The martial soul will also enhance the host's physical body, enabling them to unleash their sword intent at will. The nine inscriptions and platforms represent the seals placed on the sword, with only one seal currently broken due to the host's first level of sword intent, resulting in the illumination of the first seal and awakening of the Azure Thunder Dragon.]

Ares felt a surge of excitement and determination as he absorbed the information. He realized the significance of his awakening and the potential that lay before him. With the Azure Thunder Dragon martial soul now at his disposal and his sword intent growing stronger, he understood that his journey would lead him to unlock the remaining seals and unleash the power of the other mythical beast martial souls.
He took a moment to appreciate the unique bond he had formed with his martial soul and the sword. The mysteries surrounding his sword's intent and the inscriptions on the sheathed sword became even more intriguing.
As Ares made his way down towards the priest, his mind filled with thoughts of the newly awakened myth-level martial soul. He approached the priest, who directed him to place his hand on the orb to determine the rank of his martial soul. Ares couldn't help but feel a sense of apprehension, worried about the consequences that might arise if they discovered his true awakening.
As he placed his hand on the orb, a surge of lightning erupted from his body, crackling and enveloping him in its electric embrace. The orb instantly lit up, symbolizing the Epic level of his martial soul. He knew his martial soul was legendary rank but for some reason the orb only showed epic level. The priest and those around him stood in awe, their expressions filled with a mixture of envy and resentment. Ares couldn't help but wonder what would happen if they were to uncover his true myth-level martial soul. He knew the attention and trouble it could bring, but for now, he was safe from their suspicions, as the scale of his awakening differed from the previous phenomenon.
Just as he was about to leave the area, a man adorned in shiny armor, leading a group of players, approached him. "Hey, do you want to join our guild?" the man asked eagerly. Before Ares could respond, another group approached, and among them stood Frost Storm Bringer, the girl he had previously teamed up with. It was evident that she too had awakened her martial soul and was ready to leave the beginners' village, accompanied by her team.
Ignoring the man in shiny armor, Frost Storm Bringer grabbed Ares and swiftly pulled him away. The man seethed with anger at being ignored, as he belonged to the renowned Twilight Guild in the realm of mythology. Ares, grateful for the intervention, followed Frost Storm Bringer's group, leaving behind the envious glares and the potential dangers of his true martial soul awakening. Many were planning to recruit Ares who has awakened the epic grade martial soul but were not able to even ask Ares about it.
