"Caw caw~"

Right as it turned six in the morning, a loud noise sounded from outside the room.

It was the cry of a Cuckoo Bird, a flying type soul pet.

The Cuckoo Bird outside was Mother Wang's, an ordinary soul pet that could be raised easily.

As such, they were often used in civilian families.

Meanwhile, Wang Che was mentally exhausted after having attempted to cultivate for an entire night.

However, since there had been no results at all, he could only walk out of the room with dark circles under his eyes.

As he listened to the soul pet's cry, he unconsciously recalled basic information about it.

Cuckoo Bird: A flying type soul pet. Its entire body is covered in gray feathers. There are long feathers on its head and tail as well. The difference between these is that the long feathers on its head can sense the passing of time, while the ones on the tail can sense changes in airflow, allowing it to predict the weather.

As if on cue, the Cuckoo Bird, which was about 20 to 30 centimeters in length, flew over to Wang Che's door.

It made a cawing sound, reminding him that it was time to get up and eat.

Then, after seeing Wang Che walk out, the Cuckoo Bird flew into the living room.

"How did it go last night?"

Father Wang was surprised to see Wang Che.

Throughout the winter break, he had never once seen his son wake up this early.

Wang Che would often sleep only after the sun rose, all the way until noon.

"The child is already 18, don't ask anymore."

Mother Wang, who was preparing breakfast, turned to Wang Che. "Come and eat quickly. Oh right, Little Che, didn't you tell me a few days ago that you were going out with your classmate today?"

He nodded back silently.

It seemed that his parents in this life were quite ordinary.

In fact, Wang Che had come from such an ordinary household that he still hadn't managed to awaken his martial soul, even after signing a life contract with his soul pet.

If it had been any other world, this would have been a tragic sight to behold indeed.

However, it was common for one's martial soul not to be completely awakened here.

Even now, the power of martial souls remains a mystery to the countless countries that were still focused on researching its properties. In any case, they did not completely understand it yet.

At most, even experts could only summarize certain patterns based on historical records and research results.

Though everyone possesed a martial soul in this world, there were not many who could awaken them.

To some extent, the probability of awakening a martial soul depended on one's parents and ancestral bloodline.

Even then, it wasn't guaranteed.

The reason is simple: the life contract.

After receiving a soul beast's vitality , the dormant martial soul in humans may change due to the increase in innate talent.
