Main hall, Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect :
" I'm excited to awaken my martial soul ".
" Hehe, blue lightning tyrant dragon is the best beast martial soul of douluo ".
" I can't wait to awaken it and cultivate ".
" Heh, look at those Branch family idiots and illegitimate scum. Do they think they can awaken blue lightning tyrant dragon? ".
" True. In our family history only 2 out of 100 people ever managed to awakened the martial soul. Rest are trash ".
" Yo, isn't that the bastard of the 3rd elder Yu Ming, i think how name is Lin Tian ".
" Pfft, that kid is nothing. He is suffering from the hands of 3rd elder's wife. I heard he doesn't even get food some days and 3rd elder ignores him calling him a disgrace to his blood ".
" Hah, bastard is a bastard afterall. He only taints the family bloodline ".
" Young master Yu Xiaogang did the right thing humiliating that kid ".
" Yeah, what can a trash like him do. Do you think he can awaken blue lightning tyrant dragon. Dream on ".
Lin Tian clenched his fists glaring at the so called main family children. He is indeed the illegitimate child of 3rd elder and his mother is a maid. The drunken 3rd elder forced himself on his mother and he is born but his mother died. He is raised worse than a branch family servant under the hands of 3rd elder's wife.
And that piece of shit, Yu Xiaogang, the so called future grandmaster who will plagiarise everything from spirit hall humiliated him. He ganged up with others and beat him up. Lin Tian wanted to leave the sect but the sect is in thunder canyon and coutsude are all soul beasts.
The nearest city like 50 miles from here. Only small villages are present in the middle. Even escaping is very hard. Lin Tian is a reincarnator. He barely managed to survive all these years. If it isn't for his meditation and absorbing soul power he would be a goner by now, starved to death.
Even the clothes he is wearing are in tatters. Very old clothes with dirty and grease. He is using them by washing them. Lin Tian survived the harsh environment but he is also not in a good condition. Although soul power nourished his body most of it went to satisfy his body and made him survive without food for prolonged periods.
His energy absorption is also very thin. From this alone he can conclude that his martial soul is either trash or mediocre and his innate soul power is also low. But Lin Tian didn't give up hope, he sneaked into the sect library sometimes at night using the wooden tiles from below and secretly got the secret techniques.
As for getting caught, he made sure to observe the weak point at night when there is minimum security. One day on the occasion of Yu Xiaogang's birthday, everyone is celebrating and the security dropped to minimum level. That's when he sneaked into the library. Since there are no soul masters there. He is able to easily steal the main techniques, medicinal recipes and even secret arts of the family. He copied them and put them back before returning without getting caught.
It's his luck and distraction that day which allowed him to do this. He also hid them beneath the ground under the tiles of his house. It's 3 feet deep inside the ground. Whenever he required he will use them. He also sneaked into kitchen few times although he got caught many times, he managed to steal from the kitchen a few times.
Lin Tian doesn't care if he has a trash martial soul, with his knowledge he will try to advance but he needs a strong foundation for future. That's why he took this many risks even knowing the punishment is death penalty. As Lin Tian took a deep breath calming himself. Soon the awakening ceremony started.

The main family members awakened their martial souls first. When it's Yu Xiaogang's turn everyone observed with expectations. The sect master's son who is nurtured since childhood, some even expected him to be full innate soul power. As the awakening started behind Yu Xiaogang is a Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon with hint of gold colour in it's scales.
But soon it roared in pain and started deflating like a ballon. Then it changed into an egg, a few moments it cracked and from it appeared a creature that has no resemblance to blue lightning tyrant dragon. It's just a pig with some dog features.
Everyone's expression turned grave. The one they expected to lead the sect in future awakened a martial soul that matches a pig. How did the blue lightning tyrant dragon turn into this creature. It's running around Yu Xiaogang barking and nudging at his legs.
Even Yu Xiaogang is blank looking at it. Yu Yuanzhen ordered," test his soul power ", the deacon obeyed and gave Yu Xiaogang the orb. Yu Xiaogang swallowed and prayed silently for something before placing his hand on it hesitantly. Only a barely dim glow appeared.
He snatched the orb and smashed it before asking," give me another. This is a faulty one ", the deacon looked at the sect master and obeyed. But the result is same. Yu Xiaogang dropped the orb there and ran from there with tears in his eyes as the deacon announced.
Yu Xiaogang, Martial Soul : P-pig, Innate soul power : 0.5
The sect master Yu Yuanzhen also got up and left. But the awakening ceremony continued finally it's Lin Tian's turn. But what appeared isn't a dragon when Lin Tian awakened his martial soul. It's just an lizard with engraving of lightning symbol on it. As he tested his soul power, only 1 level appeared.
Lin Tian, Martial Soul : lizard, Innate soul power: 1
