"Ring, ring, ring..."
The school bell rang.
"ss dismissed," Yang Jun put away his teaching materials, looked at the students below, and said with a smile, "Happy winter break!"
The students in the ssroom immediately cheered.
"Yay, winter break is here!"
"Vacation, vacation!"
"Xiao Fang, how about we go out for dinner tonight and then y some murder mystery games?"@@novelbin@@
"..."
What followed was a month-long winter vacation, so the students were quite excited.
Seeing the students so excited, Yang Jun couldn''t help but remind them, "Vacation is fine, but don''t ck on your cultivation. There''s only one semester left before the college entrance exams.
Also, don''t forget about the joint trial with other schools at the beginning of next semester. Prepare well and practice your skills."
The joint trial for middle schools was a trial for all the Star Apprentice ss students in Guangchuan City. All students with awakened Soul Cards from Guangchuan First Middle School to Guangchuan Twelfth Middle School would participate, with an expected number of nearly a thousand.
Good performance in the trial could earn rewards from the Guangchuan Municipal Education Bureau.
"Don''t worry, Teacher Yang, we won''t ck on our cultivation!"
"Exactly, we''ll show the other schools what we''re made of!"
...
Seeing the students still a bit excited and expectant, Yang Jun was not so optimistic.
On average, First and Second Middle Schools were strong and steadily outperformed the other schools, so the highest rewards from the Guangchuan Municipal Education Bureau in previous years only went to First and Second Middle Schools.
Additionally, the trial would be conducted in the Secret Realm, which contained many genuine Bronze-level Star Beasts. There could be casualties, making it not so simple.
Yang Jun shook his head slightly and turned to leave.
Most of the students in the ssroom did not leave immediately, gathering in small groups to discuss winter vacation dinner parties and outings.
However, one person decisively walked through the crowd and quickly followed Yang Jun out of the ssroom.
It was Su Yuan.
Su Yuan was excited because just at the moment the school bell rang at six o''clock, the amount of Star Dust on his system panel increased to 10 points!
Unable to contain himself, Su Yuan quickly left the school and took the light rail home.
Su Yuan lived in an ordinary residential area in the northern suburb of the city, named Four Seasons Garden, with the tallest building being only six stories high.
Nearly an hourter, Su Yuan finally arrived home.
"Mom, I''m back!"
As soon as Su Yuan entered the door, he greeted as usual while quickly changing into slippers.
Su Yuan''s mother, Tang Shiyang, immediately responded from the kitchen, "Little Yuan, dinner will take a while..."
"Mom, I need to cultivate today, don''t worry about me. You and Dad can eat firstter!"
Before Su Yuan finished speaking, he had already rushed into his bedroom with an excited heart.
Mother Su hurriedly came out of the kitchen with a spat in hand. Looking at the closed bedroom door, a hint of heartache appeared on her face...
In the bedroom.
Su Yuan sat at the desk by the window, stretched out his right hand, and with a swirl of Star Power, a white card appeared in his hand. The card was surrounded by white light, emitting a strong pressure of Star Power, making it clear that it was extraordinary.
[Soul Awakening Card (Ordinary): Perfect Level (can be enhanced)]
"Let''s begin!"
Without waiting any longer, Su Yuan tightly held the card in his hand and called out in his heart with some excitement and a bit of apprehension, "System, enhance this Soul Awakening Card!"
After half a second of silence, a blue starlight dust emerged from Su Yuan''s right hand and quickly gathered towards the Soul Awakening Card in his hand.
The starlight dust flickered slightly on the card''s surface and then disappeared into it. The Soul Awakening Card then burst out with an extremely intense white halo!
[Soul Awakening Card (Ordinary): Level 6]
"Finally, a Level 6 Soul Awakening Card!" Su Yuan''s right hand, holding the Soul Awakening Card, trembled slightly.
Earlier, he had been worried about whether adding points this time would enable it to break through to beyond Perfect Level to Level 6. Fortunately, it was sessful, and he felt a sense of relief and joy.
A Level 6 Soul Awakening Card, Su Yuan had never heard of such a level before! After all, typically, Perfect Level was already the highest proficiency level for a Star Card!
If the Soul Awakening Card could be enhanced to Level 6, could other Star Cards also be enhanced to Level 6?
It was very possible!
Su Yuan tried saying, "System, change the ''Level 6'' above Perfect Level to ''Transformation Realm.''"
The information on the system panel about the Soul Awakening Card became slightly fuzzy, and then it changed to [Soul Awakening Card (Ordinary): Transformation Realm].
"Still user-friendly."
Su Yuan nodded, his gazending on the Star Card. He couldn''t suppress the strong excitement in his heart.
After waiting for so long, today he would finally see the results!
Suppressing his fluctuating emotions, Su Yuan took a deep breath and channeled the Star Power within him to the Soul Awakening Card.
"Come on, let me see what kind of effect the Transformation Realm Soul Awakening Card has! Is the half year''s worth of cultivation needed to advance from Perfect Level to the Transformation Realm worth it?"
As the Star Power was infused, the Soul Awakening Card shone brightly. A substantial beam of dazzling starlight shot out from the card and entered Su Yuan''s chest, reaching the depths of his soul.
A peculiar sensation surged in his heart, making Su Yuan involuntarily close his eyes.
Under the influence of the Soul Awakening Card, strands of pure white light shot out from the depths of his soul, gradually forming a cocoon of light through dense interweaving, as if something was about to be born.
Sweat beads formed densely on Su Yuan''s forehead, and his lips turned slightly pale. It felt as if he was undergoing extremely high-intensity training, with rapid consumption of both physical and spiritual power.
"The awakening process usuallysts for three minutes. It''ll be over soon..."
This had been mentioned in ss and wasmon knowledge among all Star Apprentice ss students.
During the awakening process, the power of the Soul Awakening Card would guide the Star Apprentice to explore their soul''s nature, potential, and limits, step by step, nurturing the Soul Card within the light cocoon. It consumed both spiritual and physical power greatly.
However, the longer this processsted, the more potential was unearthed, and usually, the stronger the Soul Card obtained from the awakening.
Most people took three to four minutes; those with higher talent could take five minutes, while it was rare to find anyone in Guangchuan City who took six minutes.
As for above seven minutes, not just in Guangchuan City, but in the entire Great me, it was like a needle in a haystack.
One minute,
Three minutes,
Five minutes,
...
Su Yuan, feeling his consciousness was about to blur, realized the awakening was not yetplete. He could only grit his teeth and persist.
"Crossing into such a transcendent world, if I can''t master extraordinary power, how could I be content?"
"Hold on a bit longer, I absolutely can''t fall down here!"
"Persevere!"
"Persevere!"
...
"Crack, crack..."
At the eight-minute six-second mark, a silver crack suddenly appeared on the light cocoon, which had been umting soul power continuously. Following this, countless cracks appeared.
Momentster, apanied by dazzling silver-white light, a blue bird with indifferent silver eyes and a body seemingly carved from blue Liu Li broke out of the cocoon with a gentle chirp and transformed into a non-physical small card embedded in the Star Power Vortex at Su Yuan''s chest.
"It''s done!" Su Yuan''s tense nerves suddenly rxed.
At this moment, the system''s somewhat mechanical voice echoed in Su Yuan''s mind:
"Detected sessful awakening of Soul Card by host. Now activating the subdiv..."
However, at this moment, Su Yuan''s consciousness had reached its limit. He barely heard the system''s indistinct voice before his vision went ck, and he fell onto the bed...
