Douluo Continent, Soutou City.
Soutou City was one of the Cities in the Douluo Continent. This city had a border location between the Heaven Dou Empire and the Star Luo Empire. As a city that is directly on the border, Soutou City has very good economic development and the security system in this city is quite good.
After Rey's Clone got her assignment, she immediately entered Soutou City in a formal manner. Everyone who enters Soutou City must pay a fee of one silver coin for residents who do not have an identity as an entrance fee or City tax. Entering Soutou City, Rey's Clone immediately looked for a good location to open a school registration booth.
The location the Clone found was quite far from the City center. This location was chosen because it is quite far from the Soul Master school in Soutou City which is located in the middle of the City close to the Soul Master Battle Arena Building. The stand used by his clone was only a small table with a white table palm, a wooden chair, and a signboard for new school admissions.
While waiting for someone to come to register, his Clone took out a storybook from inside the main body's storage room and started spending time reading the book.

Soutou City, Front Gate of the Soutou City Soul Master Junior Academy.
"Hmph! Do you think you deserve to join this school? Even if you get a recommendation as a working student from your village. Do you think you deserve to enter this school? Think about it carefully, you are just a trash martial soul and your soul power upon awakening is only a tier one soul force. You are not eligible to join our school. Go away! Our school has never accepted a commoner like you!" The man wearing fine clothes immediately threw away the certificate the girl gave him while looking at the girl with disgust.
The girl was surprised by the words the boy said to her. The girl's body trembled with deep sadness as she immediately bent down to pick up the certificate that the boy had just thrown to her.
The man's gaze then looked at the two people who were guarding the entrance gate, "You have to be more observant to see who will join. If it's people like him, you guys can just kick him out straight away. This school doesn't accept trash like them."
"We understand, Master Huang." The two gatekeepers nodded and looked at the girl in front of him with disdain.
The boy who was called Teacher Huang just snorted with satisfaction as he walked towards the inside of the school confidently.
"What are you doing here?! Hurry up and go! You're just an eyesore here." The Gatekeeper snapped at the girl in a harsh tone with disdain.
Around the location, there were already many people gathered there. Most of these people were civilians who didn't have the qualifications to be a Soul Master but there were also some Soul Masters who adapted to them. The civilians looked at the girl with pitying eyes for not only being expelled but also being humiliated directly. Meanwhile, the Soul Masters looked at the girl with disdain because her qualifications were so low that it was even difficult to become a Soul Master by her appearance.
The girl's gaze was lifted again and stared at the gate of the school she had previously wished to enroll in. By not being accepted at the school that was her hope to get a decent life, the girl immediately turned away because she didn't want to get into further trouble.
When the girl was far away, suddenly the girl heard someone who seemed to be calling herself in a voice that was quite old, "Wait, son"
The girl immediately stopped her footsteps and looked at an old woman who was walking towards her smiling, "Son, Grandma saw you being humiliated in front of the school gate. Grandma is sorry for not being able to help you earlier."
The girl shook her head as she said, "It's okay, Grandma. It's not your fault." The girl paused for a moment and continued again, "By the way, what business did Grandma call me?"
"Grandma just wanted to ask, what are you going to do after this?"
"Do after this? I don't know." The girl shook her head because right now her mind was blank and she didn't know what to do now that she was denied entry to the Soul Master school in order to earn a decent life.
"Do not know? By the way, do you still have the desire to go to school and become a Soul Master?"
"This…." The girl's sentence was stuck and didn't know what to answer regarding Grandma's question. Because after receiving the previous treatment, the incident was still etched in his mind.
The grandmother smiled a little and said softly, "It seems that you still want to. Son, when Grandma went shopping. Grandma saw that there was a Soul Teacher school registration stand near the school entrance guarded by a young man. Out of curiosity Grandma stopped and asked the young man a few questions. The young man's demeanor was different from that of the Soul Masters and Gatekeepers in the academy. The young man was very polite and kind. She answered patiently all the questions Grandma asked her. From the question Grandma asked. Grandma got information that the school where the young man worked was a newly built school and its location was outside Soutou City. Each student is not charged for studying and all expenses are borne by the school. There is no requirement to enter the school. Even someone with a tier one soul power upon awakening or a useless martial soul could be accepted into the school. Grandma suggest you try to come to the stand and try to register there. Grandma is sure that the young man will accept you as a student at the school."
"Is that true, Grandma?" The light of hope shone in the girl's eyes again.
The grandmother nodded and said, "That's right. Try to visit the stand and ask the young man who was there. If you don't get accepted, you can come back to Grandma. Later Grandma will come with you and face the young man to collect his promise to Grandma. Grandma's house is over there." After saying her words, the old lady pointed at a small house in the corner of Soutou Town.
The girl nodded and said, "Thanks for the suggestion, Grandma. I'll go try it. By the way, Grandma my name is Qin Rea. What's Grandma's name?"
"Hehehe… You don't need to know Grandma's name. Just call Grandma, Granny is old and will die soon. Come on, you better go immediately to meet the young man who was guarding the stand that Grandma said. Don't let the young man have left and the opportunity that should have been obtained will be lost."
"Okay Grandma" The girl nodded and then she bowed, "Grandma thanks for the advice. I will definitely repay you in the future."
"Hahaha… Alright, alright. Come on, you go and meet the young man."
"I understand, Grandma. Then I'll go first." The girl immediately turned around and walked towards the entrance to look for the stand that Grandma had told her about.
"This will probably be the last time. If it's not accepted again… I don't know, what should I do after this"
This girl named Qin Rea is a girl who previously lived in a remote area. He did not know who his parents were and was only raised in the village with the help of the villagers. Every citizen took turns to help raise Qin Rea until she was six years old. By the time they were six years old, each child would awaken their martial soul which was practiced in the Spirit Hall. Qin Rea who is already six years old is also obliged to awaken the martial soul.
There were six children who awakened the martial soul one of them was Qin Rea. But only Qing Rea awakened soul force and awakened soul force was tier one. Due to the jealousy of the children and the children's parents towards him which evokes the power of the soul, Qing Rea gradually began to be ostracized by the villagers through the rumors spread by the children's parents. Thanks to the help of the Village Chief who still had some affection for him, Qing Rea was given some cash along with a quota of working students to enter a Junior Soul Master Academy but on the condition that Qing Rea could not return to this village because he had earned the hatred of the residents. village.
With a heavy heart, Qing Rea gathered all her clothes and slowly left the village that had raised her. Qing Rea only had one hope which was to be accepted into the Soul Master Junior Academy and become a Soul Master in order to have a decent life in the future.
Qin Rea didn't have much ambition to be strong. He just wanted a comfortable home to live in, decent food, and a few trustworthy friends. That hope was almost shattered after he was humiliated and discriminated against in front of the gates of the Junior Academy that he had always hoped for. However, just when that hope was about to be lost, new hope returned thanks to the help of the previous Grandma.
Bringing new hope, Qing Rea walked towards the entrance of Soutou City and started looking for the Soul Master school registration booth which was guarded by a young man just as Grandma who had helped him said earlier.
********
Soutou City, Registration Stand.
"Excuse me"
A little girl's voice immediately stopped the reading activity of Clone Rey. Rey's clone lowered his reading book and glanced towards the front to see a girl in shabby clothes, carrying and a sheet of paper a certificate of a Soul Master. The boy had long white hair with a slightly sweet face like children in general.
Rey's clone smiled at the arrival of the child because apart from Grandma who came to him to ask questions, this child was the second person to come to him.
"Hello, sweet girl. Did you come here to apply for the Soul Master school built by me?" The clone's tone of voice was gentle.
Hearing Rey's soft voice, the nervous feeling experienced by the girl was nervous and looked back at Rey while saying, "Brother, is it true that the school that you have built has no conditions to join there?" The girl did not immediately answer the question asked by Rey but asked again to verify it.
Rey's clone nodded, "That's right. Our school has no conditions for someone to join. It didn't matter if their martial soul was low level or their soul force was only level one. Our school will welcome them to join and train to become great Soul Masters. In addition, our school does not burden its students with fees. You could say our school is free for everyone to enter"
"Really?" The girl stared at Clone Rey with a light of hope and enthusiasm.
"Really" Rey nodded and continued back, "Did you get this information from a Grandmother?"
The girl nodded, "Yes. Earlier when I was refused to join the Soutou City Junior Soul Master Academy, a grandmother came up to me and told me about this."
"I see" Clone Rey nodded and continued back with a small smile, "Alright. Now you know about this school. Coming back to my previous question, do you want to join this school?"
"I want to join Big Brother." The girl nodded excitedly.
"Good. From now on you are one of the students in this school. How about you introduce yourself to me? You can say your name, age, martial soul, level of soul power and the goal you want to achieve."
"Yes, Master" The girl immediately changed her nickname because her status was now a disciple, "My name is Qin Rea, I am six years old, my martial soul is a flower I don't know the name but I named it a white flower and the level of my soul power is tier one" The girl said shyly considering her extremely low level of soul power as well as her martial soul which she didn't even know the name of.
"Hmmmm… You don't know the name of your martial soul flower type? Can you show it to Master? Maybe Master knows the name of your martial soul." Rey became curious about Qin Rea's martial soul flower shape.
"Yes, Master." Qin Rea nodded and immediately summoned his martial soul. A beautiful white flower appeared from above Qin Rea's right palm, "Master, do you know the name of this flower that is my martial soul?"
"Yes" Rey nodded casually and continued, "This martial soul of yours is called the Lotus Flower. This is a very beautiful flower. It's possible that this martial soul of yours is an auxiliary martial soul that can give your friend additional abilities. It's a good martial soul. You can take it back."
Qin Rea nodded and retracted her martial soul. After he finished retrieving his martial soul, Rey's clone then handed him a white card along with a needle, "This is your student card. In addition to being a student card, this card has a function as a storage device. Every student in our school has this. This card is not yet active, to activate it, you must drip your blood on this card. Later when your blood has touched this card, this card will change and record your data and you can use the existing storage space "
Qin Rea was very surprised because she didn't expect to get something like this in this school. Qin Rea immediately followed the instructions Rey had given him earlier and stabbed his little finger with a needle that Rey's Clone had given him and dripped blood on the card.
The card immediately changed to display the background of a magnificent school and there was a personal identification data at the top of the card which recorded Qin Rea's identity along with a photo of herself.
"What building teacher is the setting on this card?" Qin Rea asked with a curious look while being amazed by the building.
"That building? That building is our school building."
"Our school?" Qing Ren was surprised to hear this and looked at Clone Rey, "Teacher are you serious?"
"Yes. Teachers don't lie. The building in the background of the card is our school building. You'll see for yourself later." Rey's clone didn't explain much because Qin Rea would definitely see it for herself, Rey's clone then took out ten gold soul coins from the storage room and gave it to Qin Rea, "You keep this money in your card. You will need it in the future. Each of our students receives ten gold soul coins every month. They can use the money to buy whatever they want."
"This…." Qin Rea was very surprised to hear this. He stared back at Clone Rey as it was hard to believe it. Because until now, he had never seen such a large amount of money as now.
"Don't deny it, OK? This is a rule owned by the school. You better save the money right away for fear that someone else will see it."
"Thank you Master" Qin Rea immediately bowed to Rey's Clone. He did not expect that before he was humiliated and despised, now he was appreciated. In his heart, he was very grateful to Grandma who told him this information earlier. Because if he wasn't told, he probably wouldn't get things like this.
Thanks to the help of Rey's Clone, Qin Rea quickly adapted to his student card and had saved the ten gold soul coins that were given to him.
"Alright, let's sit together with Master here." Rey made a special chair for Qin Rea and motioned for Qin Rea to sit there.
"Master will contact Master's main body to pick you up. Later you will meet the students of your next generation. You will go with them to shop for all kinds of necessities that you need. About expenses, you don't have to worry. Since this is the first time, all costs will be directly borne by Master. You are free to buy whatever you want."
"Main body?" Qin Rea asked in confusion.
"This Master you are now with is just a Clone or a copy of the main body. Master's main body is currently accompanying the disciples to buy the various necessities they need." Rey's clone immediately used telepathy to contact his real body. Once connected, the Rey clone immediately explained everything and decided to return to telepathy after all that he wanted to convey had been achieved.
"Master has already contacted the real body. He will come here soon with the other students."
Qin Rea instantly became nervous because she didn't know if the other disciples would accept her. After all he was just someone with a trash martial soul along with a tier one soul force level. Suddenly a hand gently patted Qin Rea's head,
"Don't be nervous, OK? Our school's students are good people, they will never look down on you or even discriminate against you just because of your martial soul and low soul power. They are just like you. You will definitely like them."
"I understand, Master." Qin Rea nodded and the nervous feeling she was experiencing instantly disappeared. The feeling of being stroked on the head by Rey's Clone was a very comfortable feeling Qin Rea experienced.
