Another two years passed.
Six-year-old Xiao Yi was sitting cross-legged in his bedroom.
"Brother Yi, don't practice; come have a breakfast; also, today is our spirit awakening day." Instantly a pleasant yet angry voice sounded from the door.
Xiao Yi opened his eyes and glanced at Xiao Mi standing in the door of his room with hands on her waist, staring at him.
"I understand, wait for me," Xiao Yi smiled and replied, then he stepped down the bed and walked outside the room after rubbing her head.
"Don't always rub my head, or my height won't increase." Xiao Mi pouted but closed her eyes, enjoying his pat.
Xiao Yi smiled and then walked toward the table and started eating the corn soup and rice porridge along with Xiao Mi.
Xiao Yi glanced at the down expression of Xiao Mi; he said calmly, "We will visit the spirit hall; don't worry if you awaken the weak spirit; your brother will protect you."
"Who said I will awaken weak spirits, I will become stronger, and then protect my brother?" Xiao Mi raised her head and hurriedly replied, patting the table.
Xiao Yi smiled and nodded and replied calmly, "I know my little Mi will always protect me."
Xiao Mi nodded proudly and then cheered up a little, but still there was nervousness hidden in her heart like other children.
After eating breakfast, both walked outside the house.
"Look, he is here."
"This child is a killer."
"Yeah, there are rumors; he killed his father."
One by one crowd took a side, looking at Xiao Yi and Xiao Mi while pointing at their backs and whispering amongst themselves.
Xiao Mi bowed her head and then grabbed the Xiao Yi arm. Seeing his calm, expressionless face, she became a little worried.
"Don't worry, your brother isn't that weak; their whispers mean nothing to me." Xiao Yi spoke calmly while walking forward.
Soon both of them reached the destination, looking at the main spirit hall in the Nuoding City.
He walked inside alongside Xiao Mi, after explaining to the guard that they were here for spirit awakening.
…
"Are you both here to awaken the martial spirit?" Ma Xiunuo asked, looking at them both.
Xiao Yi glanced at the old man in front of him and a young female standing beside him, and then he nodded, gesturing at Xiao Mi, "I am Xiao Yi, and this is my sister Xiao Mi; we are twins; today we became six years old."
"You are him; you killed your..." the female beside Ma Xiunuo exclaimed, looking at Xiao Yi.
"Cough, Si Si!" Instantly, Ma Xiunuo coughed and stopped her.
Suddenly Si Si came to her senses and stopped speaking after hearing Ma Xiunuo, but she glanced at Xiao Yi strangely with a bad impression.
"Si Si, bring the awakening stone; I will awaken the martial spirit of these both children." Ma Xiunuo then waved his hand and instructed her,
Si Si nodded and walked away and then brought the six stones back.
Instantly, the Ma Xiunuo summoned his martial spirit; it was a blue and black staff with two rings on his body, one yellow and one white soul ring.
"Come here, one of you," Ma Xiunuo then said, looking at both of them calmly.
Xiao Yi glanced at the staff martial soul in Ma Xiunuo's hand and then glanced at the six-stone formation as he saw in the manga and anime.
He patted the nervous Xiao Mi shoulder beside him and said, "Go stand in the middle of these stones; I am watching you."
Xiao Mi nodded, gulped, and then took a deep breath and walked toward the formation.
After standing inside, a golden light flashed, and Xiao Yi observed the soul power seeping into Xiao Mi's body from all directions.
"Raise your hand," Ma Xiunuo said, looking at Xiao Mi.
Xiao Mi raised her hand, and a warm current spread through her body, ejected out of her hand, and a small tool spirit appeared in her hand.
"Needle martial soul," Ma Xiunuo's disappointed voice sounded, then he let Xiao Mi touch the spirit glass ball beside her, one ninth of the spirit ball lit up with intense blue light.
"Innate ninth level, how can this be? Is her spirit soul special?"
Instantly Si Si exclaimed; even Ma Xiunuo was surprised looking at little Xiao Mi and the ninth-level innate soul power.
"Well, little girl, you can stay aside for a while; little boy, it's your turn next." Ma Xiunuo came back to his senses and then instructed the Xiao Mi and Xiao Yi,
'It's less than expected; I have been nourishing her physique with force and soul power; I thought she may reach innate full-level soul power; anyway, nine is also better.'
Xiao Yi thought to himself and nodded and walked forward toward the formation. After standing inside the formation,
Intense golden light flashed on his body, then he raised his hand. While clenching his left fist, he could feel warm current flowing through his both arms and two things brewing in his both hands.
"Its grass type unknown plant martial spirit." Ma Xiunuo spoke in surprise, looking at the unfamiliar plant martial spirit in Xiao Yi's right hand. It is long green, whitish grass with small buds protruding out on its surface.
"Touch the spirit ball; let's see if you also have soul power." Ma Xiunuo then spoke, looking at Xiao Yi. Hopefully, if he also has innate seventh-level or above soul power, then he will recruit two geniuses for the spirit hall.
Xiao Yi nodded and patted the spirit ball. Instantly the ball lit up with an extremely dim blue light.
Sigh!!!
A sigh resounded through the spirit hall, and then Ma Xiunuo shook his head in extreme disappointment.
"Innate soul power level one," Si Si spoke instead of Ma Xiunuo, looking at Xiao Yi with pity.
'It seems the rumors are false; he is just an ordinary kid,' Si Si thought to herself disappointingly.
"Little girl, do you want to join the spirit hall academy?" The Ma Xiunuo then asked, looking at Xiao Mi, putting away the awakening stones and his martial soul.
"Si Si, go prepare certificates for both of them." He also ordered the Si Si, and she nodded in return before walking away.
