C18 – Lightning Battle Spirit
The shrill sound of electricity and the dazzling burst of light drew the eyes of every examinee in the “Awakening Hall” to the spectacle unfolding before them. They were all eager to witness what kind of battle spirit would be awakened by such a formidable candidate.
It wasn’t just the examinees who were captivated; the teachers leading the exam were equally engrossed, sparking discussions among themselves:
“As long as it’s not an Infant, we’re definitely looking at a senior class battle spirit!”
“Lightning is arguably one of the strongest elements. A battle spirit with such an attribute is bound to be formidable!”
“Take note of the lightning’s intensity. This candidate’s Battle Spirit Bloodline must be incredibly potent!”
“Absolutely! If it’s not an Infant, this candidate is on track to be recognized as a genius!”

The other instructors who had been eagerly watching the Awakening Formation surrounding Qin Hongyu couldn’t help but express their dismay.
“We thought Sacred Heart Academy was about to unveil an unparalleled prodigy! Turns out it’s just a crippled Battle Spirit—such a letdown!”
“With hundreds of Infant Spirits to awaken, why did it have to be a Serpent Spirit? What a waste!”
The onlooking teachers all wore expressions of regret, akin to the gut-wrenching feeling of having all but the last number on a million-dollar lottery ticket—more bitter than swallowing a fly.
