Chapter 901 - Green Light
There was a reason why Rean took the first Soul Power humans into the sect. That's because one wouldn't understand how to use Soul Power without at least feeling it first. It's just like how Rean mentioned when he first got enough to use it. He would eventually have enough Soul Power on his own as time passed, thanks to his Light Element. But because he didn't know he had it, he might have lived his life without ever using that power.
The first humans found to have Soul Power were then brought into the Soul Hall, where they learned how to use it. Once they finished their training, they would be sent to the several countries taking form in Wringan Continent. All they needed to do was to let some Soul Power run inside those who had a score of above 20 points. Once that was done, those people would be able to feel their own Soul Power in their minds.
That being said, by the time a week had gone by, the Soul Hall's disciples were all gone from the Freedom Sect. They were all placed in cities where Rean's Healing Equipment had been on sale and are now ready to use their own Soul Power on others.
As for the reaction of the humans, they were obviously excited by the news. 99% of the humans were definitely ex-slaves under the Zasfins' control. They knew about Soul Power, this foreign strength that allowed the Zasfins to stay on top of the world for so long. How could they not be interested in it?
Because of that, the Freedom Healing SA business and its partners' profit suddenly skyrocketed. The number of Soul Measuring Orbs placed in various cities of the continent increased as well. Whether they were cultivators or ordinary humans, all of them wanted to awaken this amazing trait.
Rean, of course, followed all of that closely and was very happy with the result that came in the following weeks. "This is a necessary step for the human race. Or should we call ourselves Zasfins as well? It will be hard to draw out the line since the main factor, Soul Power, is no longer exclusively for the Zasfins."
Qia agreed with Rean, saying, "Indeed. However, our bodies still have their differences. I wonder if humans will now develop those crystal scales over their skins because of Soul Power."
Rean shrugged his shoulders as he said in response, "That I do not know. But if they do, so be it. That will be one more step into achieving coexistence between both races."
Roan was more interested in something else, though. "That's good and all. However, we have to see how the Zasfins will react to it. Also, we don't know whether the Formation Guild will accept your offer or not. Don't forget that the Soul Rulers are still the rulers of the Zasfin world. If they say no, the Formation Guild won't accept your offer even if they want to."
"Well, there's nothing I can do about it. Let's hope they're reasonable. After all, they won't have the communication system if they refuse it," Rean answered as if he was expecting such a question.
In any case, one thing was certain, the Zasfin race also went into an uproar when they got the news.
"Humans with Soul Power? Bullshit!"
"Who the hell is spreading these lies?"
"I heard from a friend that lives in Freedom City that this is not a lie. He's a Zasfin Merchant there, and he has seen a few humans with Soul Power appearing after the Freedom Sect's announcement."
"What?! That can't be! Soul Power should only be used by the Zasfin race!"
"We need to get rid of all the humans with Soul Power straight away. We can't let that lowly race use the power of a superior race like ours!"
"And how exactly will you do that? We have an agreement with the demon beasts and humans to not touch Wringan Continent for the next thousand years! If we decide to attack, we will definitely suffer a lot more since we're at a disadvantage when it comes to combat power."
"What are the Soul Rulers doing? Are they going to let humans sully our divine power just like that?!"
Those kinds of statements were appearing all around the Zasfin continents. One must not forget that Rean also transmitted that broadcast to the Palif Empire's cities that had his antennas. Obviously, it would be impossible to cover that information with so many Zasfins listening.
In the Soul Rulers, the new Soul Rulers' Head Master, Sevinia, was currently having a headache. She had to call a meeting between the Zasfins of the Soul Rulers Organization. "I knew those twins had Soul Power. But I didn't expect that Rean's Light Element could awaken other humans' Soul Power. Things are definitely getting out of control."
However, Duran Hafel, the so-called new strongest Zasfin, didn't seem very concerned with that. "What are you afraid of? The humans only have a single continent, while our Zasfin race almost has half of the planet, just like the demon beasts. So what if they develop Soul Power? That only means we will have no need for Bloodline Soul Marks anymore. Don't forget, it was our reliance on those marks that made us look like a joke. Now that humans have Soul Power, we won't be able to use it anymore. Perhaps now the Zasfins will awaken from their dreams of superiority."
Duran wasn't the only Transition Realm Zasfin unconcerned with the situation. The other ancestors of the Soul Rulers Organization didn't seem to care that much either. "We've already drafted the new approach of our race regarding training and cultivation. Don't forget that with the humans now at Wringan Continent, we wouldn't need the Bloodline Soul Mark Formations anymore. Instead, we should focus on our forces. Humans have a very, very long path ahead to become any real threat to us," said Vance, another ancestor.
In the end, the ancestors simply didn't want to create a new problem. For them, the opening of the Bestial Sacred Land in a few weeks' time took precedence. Any possible conflict with the humans was completely out of the question until then, and it would still be uncertain if the demon beasts really succeeded in opening the path to the Realm of Gods.
Sevinia felt her headache growing as she thought, 'It's easy for you to say that when all of you are leaving. You know what? Fuck it all! I'm already busy enough trying to put the Zasfins back on track after losing the war. I won't care about the humans anymore.'
Sevinia then looked at one of the Soul Rulers' elders, a man who was also a member of the Formation Guild. "You guys do whatever you want. Just make sure it won't bring any harm to our Zasfin race. If what you said about this new communication system is really true, then I won't intervene."
Sure enough, she also received the report of the Formation Guild. Since she already decided to not care anymore, she simply left that task for them to resolve.
Naturally, the Formation Master was delighted to hear that. "Thank you, Headmaster."
And just like that, Rean's offer got the green light of the Soul Rulers and the Formation Master Guild.
