"Innate Spirit Power: Level 1."
"Tsk."
The undisguised sighing sound reached his eardrums but failed to attract Huo Yuhao's attention. At this moment, he was staring blankly at the window beside him.
Ill-fitting coarse clothes adorned his thin body, and the colored glass could not hide his pale face. His pair of blue eyes revealed a depth unlike that of a child. After being stunned for a moment, he suddenly laughed.
"Martial Spirit mutated, innate Spirit Power level one - this kid can still laugh."
"Heh, it's better than having no Spirit Power at all, right?"
"After all, he was born to a servant. The fact that he has Spirit Power is thanks to the Duke."
As others' contemptuous words continued to sound, invisible energy emanated from them and flowed into Yuhao's forehead in strands. The Original Sin of Pride gathered in a gray ball of light in the Spiritual Sea.
He noticed the deathly gray color as if the dust had been washed away, revealing a deep dark blue background.
The Source of Pride is gradually reviving.
Is this what he brought back from rebirth?
Recalling the scene in his previous life when he and Tang San perished together, a gleam of understanding flashed in Yuhao's eyes. After careful consideration, he realized that most of the Original Sin of Pride did not come from his bullies and enemies in the previous six years, but from the bystanders.
As the direct descendant of the current Duke of White Tiger, he was naturally proud of being able to awaken the Evil-Eyed White Tiger Martial Spirit. The changes brought about by this were enough to allow Yuhao, a descendant who was not even a bastard, to have an extremely high status in the mansion.
Therefore, everyone in the mansion attached great importance to Yuhao's awakening ceremony today. Whether it was those who had bullied Huo Yun'er and her son, or those who were still waiting and watching, they were all closely monitoring this event.
If he awakened the Evil-Eyed White Tiger, the former would need to apologize immediately, while the latter could take the opportunity to get close to him. After all, in the Duke's Mansion, even the servants were divided into different levels. There was a huge difference in treatment between doing odd jobs and serving the Duke's concubines personally.
However, not only did the young man in front of them not inherit the Duke's Martial Spirit, but his talent was even at the lowest level, which destroyed the hopes of the onlookers. If the fence-sitters wanted to make up for their mistakes and please the Duchess again, they would naturally have to work harder to express their opinions.
"Can I leave now?"
Yuhao suppressed the excitement in his heart and asked crisply.
Six years old! He is only six years old now, and everything is just beginning!
"Ah, sure."
The host of the ceremony finally came to his senses and nodded stiffly. He watched Yuhao turn around without any disappointment and walk out of the slightly crowded door with a normal expression, and he couldn't help but shudder.
For some unknown reason, he, who was closest to Yuhao, suddenly felt an indescribable palpitation when the other party was tested for Spirit Power.
Moreover, why did he feel that the boy's eyes changed after testing his Spirit Power?
Then he shook his head and thought that the other party had changed because of the awakening of his eye martial Spirit. There are all kinds of Martial Spirits in this world, and it is normal for them to bring modifications to the body after awakening.
As Huo Yuhao walked along the route in his memory, he felt the Source of Pride in his mind almost turning completely dark blue. Next to this source, there were six nearly identical gray light balls floating quietly.
Judging from what happened just now, as long as the people around him behave arrogantly, they will be absorbed by him, but it seemed that each person could only provide it once.
He didn't know if each person could only provide it once in total, or if there was some cooldown time like once every day.
While thinking of such things, he came to the side door of the Duke's Mansion. Looking at the lush woods outside the door, he touched the White Tiger Dagger in his arms and stepped out.
It was the day to awaken his Martial Spirit. His mother Huo Yun'er thought the dagger could bring him good luck, so she specially let him carry it. Unfortunately, this thing didn't play any role in his previous life.
He suddenly thought of his rebirth and couldn't help but smile at himself:
Maybe this is what they call good luck?
Still remembering that in his previous life, he excitedly rushed back home after detecting his Spirit Power. Now that he was reborn, he couldn't go back empty-handed, right?
Not long after walking out of the door, he vaguely heard the sound of a stream in the distance. He kept walking along the path, but before he could see his destination, a burst of noisy footsteps caught his attention.
Turning around, he saw a blond boy of about the same age as him, dressed in gorgeous clothes, surrounded by several guards, walking towards him. Facing the flattering looks and words of the people around him, the boy maintained a proud expression. Invisible energy emanated from his body and rushed toward Yuhao.
"Dai Huabin", he furrowed his brows.
Dai Huabin seemed to have noticed him as well and frowned slightly. A lackey who looked the youngest and not much older than him seemed to know Huo Yuhao and quickly began to explain to Dai Huabin.
"Master, he is the son of the Duke and the servant I mentioned. I have heard that his Martial Spirit is eyes and his Spirit Power is level one."
Because the distance was not far, Yuhao could hear the lackey's words clearly and immediately realized that something was wrong. He had just awakened his Martial Spirit, and this person had obviously followed Dai Huabin back from outside. How could he know his Martial Spirit and Spirit Power?
"Oh?" Dai Huabin's eyes turned cold, "Since the Martial Spirit is not the Evil-Eyed White Tiger, let's deal with it cleanly."
The lackey's eyes showed joy, and he gave Yuhao a sinister smile. Beside him, the four guards rushed towards him.
Facing the oncoming guards, Yuhao's expression changed, and finally, he sighed softly.
"On such a joyful day, I had no intention of shedding blood."
In an instant, his body glowed with a dark blue light, and his eyes became extremely arrogant, but then the arrogance quickly disappeared.
Under the shocked gazes of Dai Huabin and his lackeys, Yuhao burst out with a speed beyond their expectations and collided with the guards.
A guard was the first to be kicked by the thin Yuhao. With a crisp sound of ribs breaking, he coughed up a mouthful of blood and fell backward uncontrollably, covering his chest and wailing in pain.
The three people who were a little slower were so frightened by this scene that they froze in their tracks.
Is this the power that a six-year-old child should have!?
What on earth is that blue light?
The next second, one of them felt a flash of cold light before his eyes, and the White Tiger Dagger slashed down diagonally, the blade sank into his chest, cutting through his flesh, and blood spurted out.
The intense pain made the man lose all his strength, and his legs went limp and he fell down.
After just one encounter, two of the four guards had lost their combat effectiveness.
