Chapter 80 Ambition's Price
"Alright, let's move on to the next contender. Long Guan, please take the stage," the emcee announced.
Amidst applause, Long Guan rose from his seat and made his way towards the stage. Many members of the Long family were eagerly awaiting his turn. Some among them were already aware of his martial spirit, and they held high expectations, believing Long Guan would shine brighter than the other young talents.
This was partly due to his unique circumstances, having delayed the awakening of his martial spirit for two years.
Arriving on the stage, Long Guan closed his eyes, and a blue aura began to emanate from his body.
In the next moment, a giant dragon emerged behind him, accompanied by a watery spectacle. It dwarfed Long Yu's dragon in size, and its form was distinct – instead of limbs, it boasted fins on both sides and a tail seamlessly integrated with its body.
Its head exuded an intimidating aura, featuring the iconic characteristics of a sea dragon.
From its appearance, it was evident that it was a sea dragon.
Long Guan grinned with satisfaction; it was his martial spirit, the Sea Dragon.
Shortly after, text appeared on the screen.
Name: Sea Dragon
Ranking: A-Class Continue reading on No_veLbIn
Soul power: 2100
Many were taken aback by these results. While A-Class was expected, a soul power level exceeding 2100 was impressive, even rivaling some S-Class martial spirits.
"Remarkable, an A-Class martial spirit with an astonishing soul power. It's not far behind S-Class, truly impressive."
"Long Guan, right? He's quite talented."
"Yes, just like his father, the Sea Dragon martial spirit."
Many praised Long Guan's achievement, recognizing the extraordinary soul power level of over 2000 as a significant feat.
Long Tian, however, observed the situation with an air of indifference. He knew that soul power was often more crucial than the martial spirit's ranking. Having a powerful martial spirit was pointless if one couldn't control it; that's where soul power came into play.
The emcee was about to deliver her applause when Long Guan interrupted her by gesturing to silence.
Many in the audience, who had been preparing to applaud, redirected their attention to Long Guan, curious about his next move. Even the emcee appeared puzzled.
On the other hand, Long Tian, well-aware of Long Guan's next action, remained composed.
"I still have something to show," Long Guan stated with a grin.
With that, he closed his eyes once more, and a blue aura radiated from his body.
In the following seconds, a colossal trident materialized behind him. From its appearance, it was evidently a weapon-type martial spirit.
As people were taken aback by this sight, text appeared on the screen.
Name: Trident of the Sea
Ranking: A-Class
However, the dragon's most striking aspect was its sheer size, overshadowing even Long Guan's sea dragon.
The audience couldn't help but gasp in astonishment at the colossal dragon. The unanimous thought that crossed their minds was that the dragon was unbelievably massive.
As the audience remained in awe, text appeared on the screen.
Name: Shen Long
Ranking: S-Class
Soul power: 8922
Everyone was left utterly flabbergasted by these results. An S-Class martial spirit with a soul power exceeding 8922 was an unimaginable feat.
"Damn, an S-Class martial spirit?! Sheesh, talent runs in the family."
"Right, Patriarch Long Zhan's S-Class martial spirit must have influenced him. Our family has a worthy successor!"
"Remarkable, if Long Tian wants my daughter, I'd agree in a heartbeat, even if it's just as a concubine."
Words of admiration and amazement filled the air. It was exceedingly rare for someone to reveal an S-Class martial spirit in all its glory.
Long Zhan, watching from the audience, swelled with pride for his son. Long Tian was his only child, and he had no intentions of having more.
The young talents from both the Long and Xia families were equally astounded by the spectacle.
However, Long Guan's expression darkened considerably. His fists clenched involuntarily, a turbulent mix of anger and frustration surging within him.
He had firmly believed that he would outshine Long Tian, but the reality was quite the opposite. The chasm between them was colossal, with Long Tian's soul power exceeding 8000, an almost unreachable pinnacle.
Accepting this was something he couldn't overcome.
Liu Qian, oddly enough, found herself beaming with pride for Long Tian. Observing him stand there magnificently with his S-Class martial spirit filled her with an unexpected sense of happiness.
Yet, amidst her feelings of pride, she also wrestled with guilt. In front of Long Tian's family, she had introduced him proudly as her boyfriend, even though their relationship was purely pretense.
Conversely, with her own family, she had never spoken a word about Ye Chen, her boyfriend, withholding the truth from her parents and everyone else.
This inner turmoil left her feeling uneasy, questioning the depths of her feelings for Ye Chen.
In the meantime, Long Tian wore a smug grin of satisfaction as he gazed upon the results displayed on the screen. He had never expected his soul power to exceed 8000, surpassing even his own expectations. Yet, this was an undoubtedly favorable outcome.
With these impressive results, he felt no need to unveil his second martial spirit.
The colossal dragon gradually dissolved into a mere illusion, and along with it, the formidable pressure it had exerted disappeared.
Recognizing this, the emcee swiftly declared, "Let's shower Long Tian and his S-Class martial spirit with a round of applause!"
The thunderous applause and praises filled the atmosphere. Long Tian responded with a simple smile and returned to his seat next to Liu Qian.
He cast a sidelong glance at Long Guan, his expression oozing with condescension.
As he observed this, Long Guan's anger flared up once more. He had never been so infuriated by anyone in his entire life.
'Just you wait, Long Tian. I won't surrender easily!' he vowed silently.
Similarly, in his heart, Long Tian said, 'Just you wait, Long Guan. I have a perfect ending for you.'
