Chapter 4: Part 4

Tang San said:

"Like SD and intermediate, is anyone proficient?"

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

“You don't need to think about a high-tier spirit teacher academy because it's not something that can practically enter anyone. In our Heaven Dou Empire, there are only two high-level spirit master academies, and every year the number of students receiving is less than a hundred. It was the birthplace of a brilliant career. Even the nation spirit hall would strive to directly bestow a noble degree to any student who graduated from an advanced spirit master academy. ”

"Mulia? There's a good possibility. ”

Tang San said, astonished.

Old Jack said:

"Of course . Spirit teachers were indeed the noblest of vocations, and advanced spirit teachers were more than that. But it's all talent. Therefore, for us laymen who dream of having a meteoric rise, becoming an advanced spirit teacher is definitely the best shortcut. Merely, coming from ordinary commoners, how many people have the ability to become great spirit teachers? Even if there was, without the help of a respectable clan it was extremely difficult to graduate from an advanced spirit master academy. ”

"The graduation test is his own business, 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 an elementary school spirit teacher are very simple: as long as the spirits reach the tenth rank, the teachers in the academy will guide you to obtain the spirit ring, and you can successfully advance your spirit teacher degree. This is certainly not difficult; as long as you have spirit power at the time of waking up, it is something that children can do. That said, advancing from spirit scholar to spirit master at rank ten spirit power was the easiest promotion. ”

“But in the middle spirit master academy it is different. In order to graduate from this place, the spirit must reach the twentieth rank and subsequently obtain a second spirit ring in order to be able to attain the title of spirit grandmaster. Rank tenth to rank twenty, was something that many spirit teachers could not accomplish in their entire lives. Also, after reaching the twentieth rank, in order to obtain spirit rings they would have to rely on their own strength to hunt and kill spirit beasts and obtain spirit rings. That's very dangerous indeed. If they were descended from noble families, and accompanied by family warriors, the danger was naturally much smaller. Spirit masters descended from ordinary people like us could only rely on themselves. ”

“The graduation requirements of an advanced spirit master academy are even more demanding. Only after passing the thirty rank bottleneck, and obtaining the third spirit ring, could the spirit grandmaster title be promoted to the old spirit title. They said that someone who surpassed the threshold of the thirtyth rank could be called a powerful great spirit master, a true noble. Going beyond is also difficult. Also, at the thirty rank obtaining a spirit ring did not seem to be the only restriction. To be specific, you should be able to learn when you reach the Academy. After all, of the students of that high-tier spirit master academy, the number that were still completely capable of graduating seemed to be only a third. ”

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

“Grandfather Jack, didn't you say that there are ten titles of spirit masters? Students who graduated from the spirit teacher academy could become spirit elders, how could those degrees be obtained later on? ”

Old Jack spoke with a wry smile:

"I know how . Those who surpassed the title of spirit elders could all be called great figures, like spirit saints who came from our village who at that time were directly supported by the state. I have heard people say that cultivating a spirit master later on is very difficult, and also very dangerous. How many people have the original type of ability that can reach the top level of a Title Douluo? You can even say that it is unknown if such people exist in our Heaven Dou Empire and the current Star Luo Empire. ”

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

Although the city of Nuoding was not considered a big city, as it was very close to the border of the Heaven Dou Empire, the city walls were still thickly built. Tang San and old Jack checked like all other travelers 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 is 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:

“Hotel is not for us poor people to live in. You have to try to win credit. When Grandfather sees you next time, I hope you are already a spirit teacher so that you can become the pride of our Holy Spirit Village. ”

Nuoding's main spirit master academy was located in the western city of Nuoding. Old Jack asked the passerby several times directions, and finally Tang San was brought there.

From a distance, they could already see a huge arch gate. The arch was twenty meters wide, and over ten meters high, made of solid rock. Below 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 spirit teacher's call was extremely important. This was still only the main spirit master 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 the Holy Spirit, but when it arrived in Nuoding city, it really looked like a hick. The gatekeeper in his eyes looked somewhat insulting.
