Dragon Covenant

Chapter 2

Tyler swung his fist and smashed it towards Albert Martin. Albert Martin's eyes narrowed, and with a tap of his toes, his figure shot out swiftly. His steps were as nimble as the wind as he dodged sideways and simultaneously launched a quick counterattack, punching Tyler in the abdomen. Tyler didn't expect Albert Martin to react so quickly and was staggered by the blow.

"It's the Wind Shadow Step!" Someone in the arena exclaimed with a touch of admiration. The Wind Shadow Step was a low-level cultivation technique. Many people present knew it, but few could be as proficient as Albert Martin.

The two of them went back and forth, engaging in a fierce fight. Albert Martin, relying on his agile skills, fought Tyler on equal terms. He continuously evaded Tyler's attacks, looking for opportunities to counterattack.

However, Tyler had, after all, awakened his soul, and his strength should not be underestimated. After failing to land a decisive blow for a long time, a surge of anger gradually welled up in his heart.

Tyler let out a loud shout, and a flash of light erupted from his body. The Soul Flame Tiger instantly emerged. A powerful force radiated from Tyler, and the surrounding air seemed to become scorching hot. "Kid, you forced me to do this."

The foundation of human cultivation lies in relying on one's own soul to absorb the energy of heaven and earth and strengthen oneself.

There are many types of souls, which are generally divided into two major categories: beast souls and elemental souls.

The so-called beast souls refer to the legend that in the beginning of the human race, there were supreme powerhouses who took the spirits of beasts and integrated them into the bloodline of the human race, thus giving birth to the so-called beast souls.

Elemental souls are the numerous elements in the world, such as gold, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, thunder, and electricity. Whether it's elemental souls or beast souls, they are all differentiated by star levels, ranging from one to nine stars.

Regarding the issue of Albert Martin's empty soul, the academy had conducted many tests. His parents were extremely talented, and the academy's senior management had high hopes for Albert Martin, believing that he would surely be able to enter the most prestigious academy in the Niuhester Empire, the Niuhester Advanced Academy, in the future.

After repeated tests, the academy's senior management reached a conclusion that it was due to Albert Martin's physique. With this physique, since no soul seed was born in his body, without a soul dantian, it was extremely difficult to absorb and refine the energy of heaven and earth, making his future cultivation exceptionally arduous.

Albert Martin's heart sank. He knew he was in trouble. But he didn't back down and still stared fixedly at Tyler.

Tyler roared with the Fire Tiger Fist, charging towards Albert Martin again with the power of his soul. This time, his speed and strength were far greater than before. Just then, a man rushed out from the crowd. He was burly like a big bear. It was Simon, Albert Martin's good friend in the academy. He charged towards Tyler like a grizzly bear, and with a muffled grunt, Tyler was forced back several steps.

Simon's soul was precisely the five-star high-grade beast soul, the Vajra Bear, with astonishing strength. Tyler angrily said, "Simon, why are you meddling in other people's business?" Simon said, "As long as I'm here, you dare to bully my brother? Do you dare to have a fight with me?" Tyler snorted coldly and turned around to leave the martial arts training ground.

Some people in the crowd whispered, "What a pity. Born with an empty soul." "Haha, don't pity others. Who is Albert Martin? He is the young master of the Martin family, one of the four major families in the Niuhester Empire. His parents were the youngest at the god level in the Niuhester Empire. In just ten years, the Martin family they founded had risen to become one of the four major families in the Niuhester Empire. They were quite famous not only in the Niuhester Empire but also outside it."

"At a time like this, you're still talking about the past. Since Albert Martin's parents disappeared on the 'Another World Battlefield' three years ago, the Martin family has been far from what it used to be. Now the Martin family has huge disagreements and might split in the future. I'm afraid he won't be able to hold the position of the young master anymore."

"There's such a thing? So, the person in charge of the Martin family now should be... Sister Emily, right?"

As soon as this name was mentioned, all the teenagers' eyes lit up with enthusiasm. That name was a legend in the Qingyun Middle Academy.

However, when they then thought about the relationship between this legendary senior sister and Albert Martin, their gazes towards the latter couldn't help but become a bit strange.

Beside the training ground was a middle-aged man. He was Hill, a teacher in the Second Academy. His eyes also showed a look of pity. Albert's comprehension was extremely excellent. Any mental cultivation method or secret manual in his hands could be practiced faster than ordinary people. It was a pity that... Albert was born with an empty soul, and there were some difficulties in the cultivation of phase power.

Simon in the arena also walked towards Albert Martin. He patted the latter on the shoulder and grinned, "Are you okay?" Albert Martin shook his head.
