Douluo Continent: Taking Tang San to fight Gangzi

Chapter 20 Registering as a Soul Master (Seeking monthly votes and continued reading)

evening.

Xiao Lin and Tang San bickered and teased each other, finally managing to enter Notting City before the city gates closed.

The two competed in about a dozen games, including running, long jump, and even rock-paper-scissors a few times.

In the end, Xiao Lin won by a small margin. Tang San was on the bottom while Xiao Lin was on the top.

"What an exhilarating sparring match!"

Xiao Lin led Tang San, who had never been to the Spirit Hall before, to the entrance of the Spirit Hall, and then smiled smugly.

"Yes, yes, yes."

Tang San couldn't help but sigh.

Even with his stamina, he was about to give up sparring with Xiao Lin.

It's easy to imagine how terrifying Xiao Lin's strength is.

No, it should be said that Xiao Lin's first spirit ring gave him a huge boost.

Xiao Lin's eight hundred years of soul power cultivation alone propelled him to level 13, while poor Tang San is only level 12.

Just the sheer level advantage Xiao Lin provided required Tang San to employ a variety of methods to barely catch up.

Upon entering the Spirit Hall, Xiao Lin led Tang San directly into the interior.

After turning left and right, we went straight up to the second floor and arrived at a simple door.

Xiao Lin knocked on the door and led Tang San directly into the office of the Spirit Hall in Notting City.

At this moment, only an elderly man with slightly gray hair was sitting in the large office, processing documents. When he saw Xiao Lin and the others enter, he glanced at them and then continued processing the documents.

"Grandpa Matthew, I'm already a Soul Master."

Seeing that Matthew was ignoring him, Xiao Lin immediately dropped a bomb in front of Matthew.

"Good evening, Lord Matthew. I am Tang San, Xiao Lin's good brother, and I'm here to register as a Soul Master."

Unlike Xiao Lin, Tang San couldn't help but roll his eyes after hearing Xiao Lin's first words, then bowed and greeted him.

"Xiaolin, what are you doing so late at night?"

Matthew was still shocked by Xiao Lin. His hands trembled involuntarily a few times as he processed the documents, and then he gave a wry smile.

"Grandpa Matthew, everyone from the Spirit Hall has gone home, there are only a few guards left. What are we going to do if we want to register as Spirit Masters?"

Xiao Lin chuckled; he hadn't done it on purpose.

"Alright, I'll register you as Soul Masters."

Matthew sighed and got up from his seat.

"I haven't registered anyone as a Soul Master for years, you two are really something."

Matthew walked to the filing cabinet next to his seat, took out a list of registered Soul Masters, flipped it about halfway, and began to record the names of two people.

"Xiao Lin, Martial Soul: Dragon Staff, registered as a Soul Master on July 16th. What are his Soul Rings?"

"The Mighty Bull of Four Hundred Years"

Xiao Lin quickly replied, deliberately downplaying the age of his soul rings.

"Alright, a 400-year-old Mighty Bull."

"Hey, mistress, tell me all your spirit rings."

After Matthew finished recording Xiao Lin's notes, he turned to Tang San, smiled slightly, and asked.

"Tang San's martial soul is Blue Silver Grass, and his spirit ring is a 400-year-old Three-Eyed Salamander."

Matthew was stunned when he heard about Tang San's martial soul and spirit rings. When did Blue Silver Grass become a cultivation method?

Not to mention Tang San's age.

However, Matthew soon remembered what Su Yuntao had said about the Blue Silver Grass with innate full soul power, and smiled slightly.

After finishing recording, Matthew slowly put the Soul Master registration list back into the filing cabinet and casually asked a question.

"Have you two really considered coming to our Spirit Hall and joining us?"

"No, we thought about it and decided to try our best ourselves."

Xiao Lin sat in the office chair next to him and leaned back to refuse.

"Why? Your talents are such that you two would receive great support if you went to the Spirit Hall's main city and the Pope's side. It's also very possible that you would be accepted as disciples by an elder who is a Title Douluo."

Matthew was shocked. He sat in his chair, staring at Xiao Lin and Tang San in disbelief.

"Little San, your spirit is Blue Silver Grass, which isn't easy to cultivate. Are you sure you don't want to join the Spirit Hall?"

Seeing that Xiao Lin didn't seem to be joking, Matthew turned to Tang San and asked.

"No, thank you, Grandpa Matthew. We'll choose to cultivate on our own because we all think the Spirit Hall's theories are too outdated."

Tang San bowed slightly to thank Matthew and then explained.

"What Xiao San said is right. I've found that the theories of the Spirit Hall and even the entire Spirit Master world are outdated."

"The most classic one is Master Yu Xiaogang's theory of the ten core competitive advantages of martial spirits, which is somewhat nonsensical."

"We plan to research our own martial soul and then find a more suitable spirit ring. If we join the Spirit Hall and actually become disciples of a Title Douluo, we will be powerless and may not be able to obtain the spirit ring we want."

"Aren't Title Douluos more discerning than us? They wouldn't care about our opinions."

Xiao Lin shook his head, then used Su Yuntao's martial soul as an example.

According to the original timeline, if Su Yuntao had not met Xiao Lin, then his spirit ring would have been obtained according to the theories of the Spirit Hall and the spirit master world.

The Lone Wolf Martial Soul is an ordinary Martial Soul, and its combat ability is not very strong.

Under normal circumstances, Su Yuntao would have obtained a spirit ring commonly used by wolf-type martial souls and would have been able to hunt them down.

This is a skill that can cause damage to stack when multiple people cooperate.

However, the base damage of this skill is not high.

In addition, Su Yuntao usually helps various villages awaken their martial souls alone, and the only time he fights with others is when he helps hunt for soul rings.

Xiao Lin met Su Yuntao and, after establishing a good relationship with him, recommended a soul skill to Su Yuntao that possessed the ability to fight independently and had stable combat power.

In the end, Su Yuntao was lucky and obtained a Howling Soul Skill, which could not only increase his own attack power, but also slightly increase the attack power of his teammates.

After the Howl was activated, Su Yuntao's original first spirit ring gained power no less than that of a typical yellow spirit ring.

Nowadays, Su Yuntao is much better at both one-on-one duels and team battles than he was in the previous hunting.

This is the difference between the two theories.

Traditional martial spirit theory dictates that offensive spirit masters primarily choose to buff themselves or use powerful offensive spirit skills.

Xiao Lin's theory is that offensive-type Soul Masters can also choose group-functional Soul Skills.

Xiao Lin would even value the combination of his soul rings more, rather than the original approach of treating attack skills as attack skills and enhancement skills as enhancement skills.

Furthermore, the soul skill that Xiao Lin chose for Su Yuntao is also very suitable for military use.

When a bunch of wolf-type martial soul masters howl together, the effect is terrifying.

And this is just the difference in the choice of spirit rings for general offensive spirit masters. If you switch to other types of spirit masters, the theory will be much different from the traditional spirit theory.

"Well, since that's the case, then so be it. I only hope that your future theories will benefit all Soul Masters."

"Come on, I'll take you to collect this month's gold soul coins."

Seeing that Xiao Lin had said that, Matthew just sighed and then led Xiao Lin and the other person out of the office.

In Matthew's view, there were many other reasons why Xiao Lin and Tang San did not join the Spirit Hall.

At least, Matthew believed that Xiao Lin and the others were preparing to become nobles in the future, which was why they didn't join the Spirit Hall...

"By the way, in the world of Soul Masters, strength is paramount. You two must not waste your talents. Oh, and one more thing, you probably don't have rooms to sleep in yet. If you don't mind, you can sleep in the study of the Spirit Hall..."

"Yes, thank you, Grandpa Matthew."

Xiao Lin and Tang San bowed deeply to express their gratitude.

Although Xiao Lin had slept in the Spirit Hall a few times before, he couldn't treat it as his own home. Without Matthew's approval, he would still have to find a place to sleep outside.
