Registering a Soul Master

After leaving the Soul Hunting Forest, Xiang Yan handed over the gold soul coins he earned from the hunt to his old comrades Wang Da and Wang Er.

Although Xiang Yang and Tang San were very lucky to obtain the spirit rings this time, they did not encounter any danger.

However, this does not mean that the amount of money paid for Soul Hunting can be reduced.

Wang Da and Wang Er declined.

"Xiang Yan, we didn't contribute much, so let's give less gold soul coins this time."

Although Xiang Yan didn't intend to pay less, Wang Da and Wang Er couldn't really accept the original price.

However, Xiang Yan still shook his head.

"No, this was agreed upon from the beginning of the Soul Hunting event. Do you think you'd charge me more just because the Soul Hunting process involves greater danger?"

Xiang Yan's rhetorical question left Wang Da and Wang Er speechless.

Xiang Yan handed over all the gold soul coins to the two men, and then led Xiang Yang and the others to leave.

Finally, Wang Da and Wang Er reluctantly accepted it.

In Wang Da and Wang Er's eyes, Xiang Yang and Tang San were both geniuses, even though their martial souls were of relatively poor quality.

However, Xiang Yang and Tang San were also people who were able to obtain their second spirit ring within a few years.

That would be another business opportunity, and they didn't want to make things too ugly.

But since Xiang Yan was a man of principle, they reluctantly accepted it, though they did add a disclaimer.

"When Xiaoyang and the others reach level 20, they should come looking for us too!"

"We'll give you a discount then."

Upon hearing Wang Da and Wang Er's words, Xiang Yan's face finally broke into a smile.

"Okay, I'll come find you again later."

Xiang Yan agreed and then turned around and led Xiang Yang and the others away in a carriage.

The Soul Hunter Forest is quite far from Notting City, so Xiang Yan, Wang Da, and Wang Er didn't have a drink or anything.

However, after Xiang Yan and the others left...

Tang Hao, who had been secretly protecting them, did not leave with Xiang Yan and the others.

"So naive."

"Let me help you."

Tang Hao muttered to himself in the shadows.

Previously, Xiang Yang absorbed an external soul bone. Although no one noticed, it was still a potential problem.

Tang Hao didn't want the kid he had his eye on to be killed by someone else.

Even a one in ten thousand chance is unacceptable.

Not to mention, Xiang Yang and Tang San are sworn brothers, which will be a great help to him in his future revenge against the Spirit Hall.

Of course, no one knew about this.

Xiang Yang and Tang San were still thinking about hurrying back to the Spirit Hall in Notting City to register their identities as Soul Masters of the Heaven Dou Empire.

……

A day and a half later, inside the Spirit Hall in Notting City.

Xiang Yan led Xiang Yang and Tang San to Master Matthew in the hall.

However, upon entering the hall, Xiang Yang and Tang San were immediately drawn to the murals on the dome of the Spirit Hall.

However, Xiang Yang was drawn to the various glass artifacts in the Spirit Hall's main hall, while Tang San was simply captivated by its magnificent aura.

Soon, after learning the purpose of Xiang Yang and his group's visit, Matthew's old face was filled with shock.

"Come on, children, I'll get you tested right away."

Matthew's kind voice greatly increased Xiang Yang's goodwill towards him.

Although Matthew is a member of the Spirit Hall, he is not an evil person like Bibi Dong.

This is how Xiang Yang developed a liking for him.

Immediately afterwards, the three of them went to a special testing room.

"Alright, now unleash your spirit rings."

Matthew stroked his beard, a gentle smile on his face.

He now knows who those two people are.

These are the two children with innate full soul power that Su Yuntao had mentioned to him.

Soon, as Xiang Yang and Tang San released their soul power, their martial souls also appeared.

A bow with a golden sun pattern and a blue silver grass that looked like a bamboo shoot suddenly appeared before Matthew's eyes.

Immediately afterwards, the two people's yellow spirit rings rose from their feet, pulsating up and down.

Seeing this, Matthew couldn't help but rub his eyes.

"A yellow spirit ring, a hundred-year spirit ring?"

"Is this an iron bow and blue silver grass?"

When Matthew saw that Xiang Yang and Tang San's martial souls were clearly not what Su Yuntao had described, his expression turned to astonishment.

"Grandpa Matthew, is there a problem? Our martial soul absorbed a spirit ring and this is what happened?"

Tang San, unsure if there was a problem with the changes in his martial soul, quickly asked curiously.

"No, after absorbing a spirit ring, the martial spirit will indeed undergo some changes."

Matthew shook his head and let out a long sigh.

"You two channel your soul power into the crystal ball, let me see how much soul power you have."

Matthew took a crystal ball from the desk next to him and placed it in front of the two of them, indicating that they should input their soul power.

Xiang Yang made the first move, placing his small hand on the crystal ball. In the next instant, the crystal ball lit up with a bright yellow light. Although the light did not fill the entire crystal ball, it was still extremely dazzling.

"This is... level 15... level 15 and a half?"

Matthew rubbed his eyes again, his face full of disbelief.

However, when Matthew looked at it this time, the crystal ball's light was much weaker.

"Level 13, I guess I was wrong after all."

Matthew looked at Xiang Yang as if he were looking at a little monster, but he was no longer as shocked as before.

Looking at the light emanating from the crystal ball, Matthew still didn't understand.

"Logically speaking, absorbing a spirit ring should only increase your level by one. Even a hundred-year spirit ring would only increase your level by two at most. Could it be...?"

"Child, what kind of high-level spirit beast's spirit ring did you absorb?"

Matthew asked curiously.

"I don't know, it's just a four-hundred-year-old demonic red fox."

Xiang Yang shook his head, looking completely naive.

"Oh, I see. So it's a 400-year-old soul ring. The Demonfire Red Fox is considered a high-level soul beast."

Matthew suddenly realized that he had convinced himself.

Next up was Tang San's test.

Tang San's soul power level was the same as Xiang Yang's, around level thirteen.

"Level 13? You're level 13 too?"

Matthew was stunned once again.

Fortunately, this time Tang San explained it directly.

"Grandpa Matthew, my spirit ring was given to me by a four-hundred-year-old water bamboo."

As Tang San finished speaking, Matthew nodded thoughtfully.

"It must be because four hundred years of soul power is too much, causing you to skip two levels at once."

Matthew no longer doubted and began to record the two of them.

"From now on, you two are Soul Masters of the Heaven Dou Empire, and you will receive one Gold Soul Coin every month."

"After reaching the Great Soul Master level, you get ten gold soul coins per month, and when you reach the Soul Venerable level, you get one hundred gold soul coins per month."

"Furthermore, once you become Soul Masters, you will be nobles of the Heaven Dou Empire."

"Although it's the lowest rank of nobility."

As he spoke, Matthew handed the Soul Master Badge and Gold Soul Coins to Xiang Yang and Tang San.

Then, Matthew suddenly remembered something and said, "By the way, are you two going to join the Spirit Hall?"

"No need, we're already preparing to study at Notting College."

Xiang Yang shook his head and declined Matthew's invitation.

After saying goodbye to Matthew, Xiang Yang and Tang San left in a hurry.

Along the way, Xiang Yang and Tang San whispered to each other.

"Brother Xiang Yang, your soul power level is actually 15.5, right?"

Tang San covered his mouth with his small hand, looking as if he knew everything, and whispered.

"Aren't you the same?"

Xiang Yang didn't say anything more, but asked a question instead.

Hearing Xiang Yang say that, Tang San chuckled.

When Xiang Yang made the appraisal, he could fool Matthew, but he couldn't fool Tang San.

Tang San only needed a moment's thought to understand Xiang Yang's meaning, so he did as he was told.

The tallest tree in the forest will surely be felled by the wind!

He understands this basic principle.
