Douluo Continent: Martial Soul - Agave, Self-created Earth God Position

Early morning, at the gate of Wuhun City.

Sabo arrived at the agreed location early.

after awhile.

Class teacher Ms. Wu Qiqi arrived late.

"Sabo, I'm sorry, something came up and I was delayed."

"It's alright, Teacher Wu, I didn't wait long."

"Why didn't you let Lord Salas take you on the soul hunt this time?"

Upon hearing this, Sabo awkwardly scratched the back of his head and made up an excuse.

"Grandpa is very busy with official duties, and besides, I don't want to bother him every time."

"You're right."

"The graduation requirement for our primary Soul Master Academy is that you must be 12 years old or a Soul Master with 1 ring."

"Now that you are 12 years old and your soul power level has exceeded 20, you have already exceeded the goal and do not need to enter the intermediate soul master academy."

"I can write you a letter of recommendation so you can skip a grade and go directly to our Spirit Hall's Advanced Spirit Master Academy."

Teacher Wu Qiqi said with a serious expression.

"Teacher Wu, let's talk about this after I successfully obtain my second spirit ring!"

"Alright, let's leave it at that for now and go hunt for souls."

The two walked side by side; 12-year-old Sabo was as tall as his teacher.

Up close, you'd think they were two brothers.

In these six years, not only has Saab improved, but Teacher Wu Qiqi has also improved.

His soul power level has increased from level 45, four-ring Soul Master, six years ago, to level 54, five-ring Soul King.

After teaching Sabo and his class of students, he too will have to leave the Spirit Hall's Junior Soul Master Academy.

He went to the nearby Spirit Hall Advanced Soul Master Academy to teach higher-level students.

This time, they chose the Star Dou Great Forest as their hunting ground.

Arrive at Soul Hunter Town.

This was Sabo's first time in a place like this.

The cries of vendors echoed from both sides of the street.

The stalls of all kinds seemed to stretch as far as the eye could see.

"Come and take a look! This is a brand new plate armor made by the blacksmiths of Gengxin City."

"Young man, how about a few recovery potions? They can have unexpected effects in a pinch!"

The stall owner grabbed Saab and began promoting his products.

"Sabo, hurry up and follow! Ignore them!"

"Okay, Teacher Wu."

"I can only come back for a visit when I have the chance."

Sabo quickly followed.

As they walked, Teacher Wu shared his experiences from over the years with Saab.

"Don't believe what those stall owners say; they're just trying to scam newbies like you who don't know anything."

"Also, there are many people and suspicious eyes here, so you have to be very careful with your personal belongings."

"At these gatherings, there are Soul Masters who specialize in stealing other people's belongings. Once they get their hands on something, they immediately sell it off cheaply..."

About twenty minutes.

Sabo and his companion arrived at the entrance to the Star Dou Great Forest.

The city wall stretches as far as the eye can see.

There were many Spirit Hall knights on the city wall, and the city wall was also equipped with a large number of lethal weapons.

In the center of the city wall is a heavy gate, with mortise and tenon joints fitting together, and more than a dozen gears exposed on the gate.

There was a guard every five steps and a sentry every ten steps along the city wall.

Outside the sentry post, there was a small team dressed in strange costumes.

Seeing Sabo's interest in these strangely dressed people, Teacher Wu explained it again.

"These are mercenary groups that live on the edge, often going hungry."

"Oh! Is it because you're lazy?"

"No, it's that there's danger in the forest at all times. Not only do we have to guard against dangers from soul beasts, but we also have to avoid being double-crossed by others."

"Ah! Teacher, didn't you say that there's a small camp of our Spirit Hall in the Star Dou Great Forest?" Sabo asked again.

"That's right, there is indeed a small camp of the Spirit Hall inside, but it's only on the edge."

"Besides, those are for our Spirit Hall personnel."

"Our Spirit Hall knights can only deal with external matters."

"We can't help those inside unless the victim can bring evidence and come back alive to submit it."

Teacher Wu explained.

"Should we hire some employees?" Sabo asked.

"Need not!"

"This time we'll only venture into the outer area, not into the inner areas. With your teacher's level 54, five-ring offensive Soul King cultivation, that's enough."

The regions of the Starry Sky Forest are: edge, outer perimeter, inner circle, center, and core.

Teacher Wu presented the token, which was confirmed by the Knight Captain.

"You can pass!" The knight captain gave the order, and his men opened the mechanism.

A rumbling sound rang out as those giant gears turned.

The interlocking doors slowly opened, and Sabo was about to pass through.

Teacher Wu stopped Sabo, "Wait a minute, it's not fully open yet!"

Sabo looked up and saw that there was another large door inside.

The outermost part opens from the middle outwards.

The innermost one is opened from top to bottom.

Teacher Wu then explained, "Sabo, you've never seen one before, have you? This design is to prevent people from jaywalking..."

"Moreover, these two doors are for entering only, not exiting."

Sabo was about to speak when Teacher Wu noticed the doubt in his eyes.

"The exit is on the other side, not far from here. It's a fifteen-minute walk."

"So, can we use those lifting platforms?"

"Silly boy, the elevator is only for knights to use. Unless there is an emergency, such as a beast tide, we will be temporarily conscripted to the city wall."

"Delay for time, hold out until the Title Douluos of the Spirit Hall arrive to provide reinforcements..."

Through the dialogue between the teacher and the student, the two doors were finally fully opened.

"Line up, don't crowd, enter one line at a time."

Good luck to you!

"A knight said solemnly."

Sabo and his companion obeyed the knight's instructions and lined up to pass through the two gates in an orderly manner.

"After waiting for so long, we're finally in."

"Let's go, Sabo. I'll take you to the nearest camp on the edge of our Spirit Hall. There are Spirit Master teams stationed there every day."

"It's usually a team of ten."

"It consists of two offensive Soul Emperors, two defensive Soul Kings, four agile Soul Masters, and two support Soul Masters."

Teacher Wu, with his hands behind his back, stepped forward and explained again.

Sabo immediately caught up with Teacher Wu, "Teacher, how do you know so much?"

"Because I also took a rotation for a period of time?"

"Huh? The teachers from the Spirit Hall's primary spirit master academy are being rotated?"

Sabo was surprised.

"Of course! Why do you think the academy only has classes in the morning, and students can do whatever they want with their time after noon?"

"Is it really just to motivate students?"

"No, it's because the Spirit Hall has regulations in place to prevent teachers from just loafing around after entering the academy to teach."

A certain master said, "I feel like you're targeting me!"

"Therefore, teachers are rotated periodically to prevent some teachers from being incompetent or just coasting along."

"It has reduced some of the expenses of the Spirit Hall and improved the teaching quality of the teachers, combining theory with practice."

"This is a win-win strategy for both sides."

With Mr. Wu's vivid explanation, they arrived at the edge camp.

"Xiao Wu, are you bringing your students out to hunt for spirit rings today?"
