NOVEL NEXT Chapter 13: Chrysanthemum Douluo
The voice that they have heard was from Yue Guan which was come to Holy Spirit village to take Feng Xuan to Martial soul hall.
He visited Su Yuntao after coming to Holy Spirit Village. He heard from him that Feng Xuan is leaving for Nuoding city to enrol academy there. After hearing that he directly goes to village chief house in order to stop Feng Xuan from leaving.
With his titled duoluo strength he just needed minute to reach and see that they are leaving he shouted to stop them.
After hearing loud voice the village chief Old Jack, Tang san and Feng Xuan shocked because of intensity of sound is very high.
"This man is very powerful be careful Xuan?" said Shivarjuna who felt power fluctuation of Yue Guan.
"ok Master." Said Feng Xuan.
But due to knowing story of soul land he by seeing Beautiful Feminine man he understand who he is.
Just as he was about to ask.
Old jack asked "Who are you? Why do you stop us? Where are you come from?"
Yue Guan first shocked due to questions of elderly man and then laugh
"I am Elder of Martial Soul Hall Yue Guan people call me Chrysanthemum Douluo."
Su Yuntao who was following Yue Guan comes and introduce "He is Elder of Martial Soul Hall Yue Guan people call me Chrysanthemum Douluo."
After hearing Name of man Old jack fearfully kneel down
"Sorry, your majesty, I didn't recognise you, please forgive me for asking unreverent question."
Yue guan "it's okay. I come personally here to recruit Feng Xuan in Martial Soul Hall."
Tang San who heard name of Soul hall shocked. He doesn't know level of man of soul hall but he understand that man is powerful beyond his imagination.
Feng Xuan and old jack also shocked by word of Yue Guan.
Old jack replied "your majesty, we are happy that Soul hall values little Xuan."
Feng Xuan who knows about Yue Guan think "To think Bibi dong directly send Chrysanthemum Douluo to recruit me. If it was before I directly would have gone to Soul hall but now I have master and with his guidance I don't needed soul hall's backing. But still I needed to go to soul hall otherwise with how soul hall worked my life will be in danger and I don't want to use my master's help due to price is so high to lose master."
"Your majesty, I am still child and needed to learn from academy so can I join soul hall after junior academy? "Asked Feng Xuan Respectfully.
"Martial soul hall also have academy in which you can learn more from there. Also with your innate full soul power it would be pity if you learn from low level academy. Your Growth will be supress in Nuoding Academy." Said Yue Guan after hearing rejection of Feng Xuan.
Old jack said "little Xuan, it's your good luck that you are value by soul hall. Say yes your future as soul master will be secured by following Martial soul hall."
Feng Xuan "yes grandpa."
He then told "Brother san, Grand pa, I want to talk with elder Yue Guan alone can you leave for some time."
Tang san and Old Jack agreed and leave.
Feng Xuan seeing both leave asked "Can I not go?"
Yue guan "tell me one reason and I will agree if possible."
Feng Xuan "First I want to learn independently, I have some ancestor research from my parents which include development of soul power in initial stage as well as practicing martial soul. So in initial stage I don't require guidance but once junior academy over I will join soul hall for latter stage of studies. Is it possible?"
Yue Guan after thinking replied "yes, I will go and asked yours holiness. If she agrees then you can develop in Nuoding academy."
Feng Xuan "Thank you your majesty."
Yue guan sees Feng Xuan last time and leaves for soul hall. Then Su Yuntao also left for another village.
Feng Xuan also leaves and reunited with old jack and Tang san. He explain about his talk with Yue Guan to Old jack and old jack agree. He then take both Tang san and Feng Xuan leaves for Nuoding city.
Walking along the road, Tang San silently followed by old Jack's side, frequently turning his head back to look in the direction of the village.
"Little San, do you hate to part with the village or still hate to part with that drunkard old man of yours?"
Jack patted Tang San's head, and asked with a smile.
"A bit of both."
Tang San replied in a low voice.
Jack smiled slightly, and said:
"Compared to those however many good-for-nothing grandsons, you, my child are far more intelligent. Tang Hao that drunkard truly is fortunate. Do not think too much; outside, heaven and earth are very vast. At the academy you can get to know very many friends. You can learn very many things. After you have become a spirit master, the country will grant a monthly stipend, and at that time your family will also be able to live well."
Feng Xuan who was hearing all know about Tang Hao but doesn't comment.
Tang San was after all a person who had gained a second life, listening to Jack's words, his mood already gradually recovered to normal, and in his heart was an unbearable thirst for the outside world. He asked:
"Grandpa Jack, can you tell me about the academy? What kind of place is it exactly?"
Jack smiled a bit, and said:
"The academy is of course a place to study. Although I never went, but for the most part I still understand. Our village has a quota to send one working student every year, but we have already for very many years not sent a working student to study. Working students still have very many favorable terms, exemption from tuition and accommodation fees; just paying for food yourself is sufficient. On the campus you can perform simple jobs in exchange for edibles. For example, sweeping classrooms and so on. Speaking overall, to a student who is working part time and studying at the academy it does not differ much from being free of charge. As for funding to study at the academy, it is not something we poor people can be able to bear."
Tang San said:
"Dad told me, after I finally arrive at the academy to find a smithy for work."
"You? Doing manual work at a smithy? What joke is that? I see Tang Hao truly is insane."
Old Jack said angrily,
"Just how old are you? You still do not have the height of a forging hammer. What smithy could accept you, this kind of apprentice? Not to mention, blacksmithing originally is not exactly accepted as a valued occupation, manual work also does not have much of an income. As long as you study properly at the academy, that is enough."
"Only, come to think of it, if you are able to have some accomplishments to speak of at the academy, that drunkard father of yours should give you some of his little saved money. But afterwards the intermediate spirit master academy has no working student quota that indeed requires a lot of money to be able to study. A spirit master stipend alone is far from enough."
Since Tang San had innate full spirit power, old Jack already saw him as a spirit master without doubt.
Tang San looked at Jack, unconvinced, and said:
"There is still an intermediate spirit master academy? And what is the difference compared to the elementary spirit master academy? Both are academies, they should both be teaching spirit master lore, right."
Old Jack explained with great patience:
"Naturally there is not only one kind. The elementary spirit master academy teaches a few basic things, and additionally you can study some educational courses. They only accept children who have just awakened their spirits as students and the length of the schooling is six years, so by the time they are twelve, in the event they do not have any prospects to speak of, they also become ordinary spirit masters. But in the event that their latent talent is pretty good, the majority of people can opt to go to take advanced studies at the intermediate spirit master academy, continuously studying until becoming eighteen years old. The intermediate spirit master academy teaches some advanced things, but the difficulty of the studies rises enormously. In case they are unable to reach the academy requirements, they will be unable to successfully graduate. This is different compared to the elementary spirit master academy."
