Soul Land (Spirit World)

Forbidden Weapons IV

Tang San said:

"Like the elementary and intermediate levels, is anyone proficient?"

Old Jack nodded, his eyes revealing a somewhat amazed glint,

"you don't need to think about a high-level Spiritist academy because it's not something that's easy for anyone to enter. In our Dou Sky Kingdom, there are only two high-level Spirit realm experts academies, and each year the number of students accepted is less than a hundred people. It was the birthplace of a brilliant career. Even the Spirit hall would attempt to directly bestow the title of nobleman to any student who graduated from the academy of basic Spirit Experts."

"Mulia? A good possibility."

ang San said, astonished.

Old jack said:

"of course. The Spirit Expert is indeed the noblest calling, and the Advanced Spirit Expert is more than that. But it's all talent. Therefore, for us ordinary people who dream of growing rapidly like meteors, becoming a skilled Spiritist is definitely the best shortcut. Merely, coming from ordinary commoners, how many people have the ability to become great Spirit Experts? Even if there was, without the help of a respectable clan, it was extremely difficult to graduate from a proficient-level Spiritist academy."

"The graduation test has its own difficulties, so why is someone else's help needed?"

Tang San was a bit confused.

Old Jack sighed, and said:

"This is the gap. The gap between the poor and the rich, between commoners and nobles. The graduation requirements of the primary school Spiritist are very simple: as long as the Spirit reaches the tenth rank, the teachers in the academy will guide you to obtain the Spirit ring, as long as the Spirit reaches the tenth rank, the teachers in the academy will guide you to obtain the Spirit ring, and you can successfully raise your Spirit Expert title. This is certainly not difficult; as long as you have the power of the Spirit upon awakening, it is something that children can do. It is said, raising the Spirit Disciple to the Spirit Expert on the rank ten Spirit power is the easiest promotion. "

"But in the academy of intermediate Spirit Experts it was different. To graduate from this place, the Spirit must reach the twentieth rank and subsequently obtain the second Spirit ring in order to be able to attain the title of Great Spirit Expert. The tenth rank to the twentieth rank, was something that many Spirit Experts could not accomplish in their entire lives. Also, after reaching the twentieth rank, in order to obtain the Spirit ring they would have to rely on their own strength to hunt and kill the Spirit beasts and obtain the Spirit ring. That's very dangerous indeed. If they were descended from noble families, and accompanied by family warriors, the danger was naturally much smaller. The Spirit experts of ordinary people like us can only rely on themselves. "

"The graduation requirements of the proficient Spirit Expert academy are even more demanding. Only after passing through the thirty rank barrier, and obtaining the third Spirit ring, could the title of Great Spirit Expert be promoted to the title of Spirit Elders. They said that someone who surpassed the threshold of the thirty rank could be called a powerful Great Spiritist, a true noble. Going beyond is also difficult. Also, at the thirty rank obtaining the Spirit ring did not seem to be the only restriction. To be clear, you should be able to study when you reach the academy. After all, of those high-level Spirit realm expert academy students, the number that were truly capable of being refined seemed to be only a third."

After listening to old Jack, Tang San had a basic understanding of the Spirit Experts of the Douluo Continent.

"Grandfather Jack, didn't you say that there are ten titles of Spirit Expert? Students who graduated from the Academy of Spirit Experts can become Soul Elders, how can further degrees be obtained? "

Old Jack spoke with a wry smile:

Old Jack only had a little simple understanding of the Spirit Experts, nothing more. Hence his words were not detailed. Tang San understood that he could only seek this knowledge himself in the academy. In particular, about the spirit beast, the Spirit ring and such things.

From the village of the Holy Spirit to the city of Nuoding is certainly not far away; two people walking can reach it within half a day. Eat some simple trip rations in the middle of the road, in the afternoon they can already see the city walls from a distance.

Although the city of Nuoding was not considered a big city, as it was very close to the borders of the Dou Sky Kingdom, the city walls were built in thickness. Tang San and old Jack checked like all the other visitors when entering the city of Nuoding.

"Tang San ah! Soon grandfather will take you to the academy and then back. When you are alone in the academy you must listen to your teachers, you must not leave the academy without permission. When the semester's over, Grandpa Jack will be back to see you. It will be almost in the New Year. "

This was the first time Tang San had left home. In his heart he was a bit confused, and subconsciously said:

"Grandfather Jack, are you leaving soon?"

Old Jack said with a wry smile:

"A hotel is not for the poor. You should try to get an award. When grandfather comes to see you next time, I hope you have become a Spirit Expert so that you can become the pride of our Holy Spirit village. "

Nuoding's main Academy of Spirit Experts is located in the western city of Nuoding. Old Jack asked the passersby about the direction, and finally Tang San was brought there.

From a distance, they could already see the gate with a large arch. The arch was twenty meters wide, and over ten meters high, made of solid rock. Beneath it were two iron gates, jet-black. Tang San saw they had been meticulously forged.

Through the iron bars, a winding road could be seen. A main road leads directly inside, lined with trees on both sides.

In the center of the arched gate were four large characters, "Nuoding Academy".

Only from the gate could it be seen that in the Douluo Continent, the call of the Spirit Expert was extremely important. This is just a basic Spirit realm expert academy, nothing more.

Old Jack carried Tang San walking to the front gate, and they were immediately stopped by the young gatekeeper, who was,

"What the fuck? Is this a place that can be entered by villagers?"

Old Jack's clothes were considered bright and new in the village of Holy Spirit, but when he arrived at Nuoding city, they really had the appearance of a villager. The gate guard looked contemptuous.
