215 Success

Old Jack's good reputation is known to everyone in the surrounding area.

When he was working in the fields, villagers passing by would also help him.

"I guess Xiaotian will participate. Do you remember the two young men who came to the village last time?" Old Jack said with a smile.

The farmer smiled and said, "I was shocked when I entered the city a few days ago. One of the two young men who brought you the news about Xiaotian was the son of the Lord of Notting."

Old Jack was no stranger to Xiao Zhan, the Lord of Notting. When Qi Tian was studying at Notting College, he had received a lot of help from him. Even because of Qi Tian, ​​the tax in their village was reduced by 20%.

Old Jack didn't know Xiao Chenyu's identity, and he was shocked when he heard this.

After calming down, he said, "The news is even more correct. I heard that Xiaotian is now valued by the Crown Prince of the Tiandou Empire. He may have the opportunity to become an official in the future, and even an official in Beijing."

For the villagers, Xiao Zhan is already the "emperor" in their eyes, not to mention those officials serving in Tiandou City.

Just as the two were greeting each other, Xiao Chenyu's carriage slowly drove into the Holy Soul Village.

Just when they were curious about who was in the carriage, Xiao Chenyu lifted the curtain and got out of the carriage.

"Village chief, he is the son of the city lord."

"Ah?" Old Jack looked at the casual outfit and suddenly became extremely anxious.

If he had known earlier, he should have put on the new clothes when he went out today. If he was disliked by others and the tax benefits of the village were cancelled, it would be a great sin.

Xiao Chenyu recognized Old Jack at a glance, and he waved his hand quickly, "Village Chief Jack, there is new news."

Seeing that Old Jack was indifferent, the farmer beside him urged: "Village Chief, Village Chief, people are calling you."

Old Jack felt bitter in his heart, but he still went forward.

"My Lord, I..."

Xiao Chenyu was startled and quickly helped him up, "Village Chief Jack, Qi Tian is my good brother and he even saved my life. If you salute me, he will definitely cause trouble for me when he comes back!"

He took out the notice from his sleeve, pointed at the words on it, and said, "Village Chief Jack, look, Qi Tian won the Soul Master Competition Preliminary Championship!"

The notice still showed the promotion list of the five principalities and kingdoms. However, these teams were ranked after the promotion team of the Tiandou Empire.

Old Jack could become the village chief, so he must be illiterate. He took a closer look and saw Qi Tian's name.

Xiao Chenyu continued, "Village Chief Jack, I heard that His Majesty decided to wait until after the Soul Master Competition to personally confer titles on all members of these five teams."

"Knighthood!" Old Jack's eyes sparkled.

To ordinary people, officials and gentry were great masters, and nobles were transcendent beings above them.

"Really?" Old Jack grabbed Xiao Chenyu's hand.

After getting a positive answer, a bright smile appeared on his wrinkled face, "Xiaotian has made great progress. He will become a high-ranking official."

Xiao Chenyu certainly knew that Qi Tian had no interest in promotion. Otherwise, with his relationship with Crown Prince Xue Qinghe, he could be any official, so why did he participate in the Soul Master Competition?

Of course, he would not disturb the old man's interest. After delivering the message, it was almost time for him to go back.

The village is a big family. When Old Jack announced the news in front of many villagers, everyone was very happy. Some even suggested opening a new page for Qi Tian in the family tree.

Of course, some people compare Qi Tian and Tang San.

"Tang San's drunkard father left, and he left too. In the past, our family gave him a lot of free meals. After he became a spirit master, he forgot about us. What an ungrateful guy."

"Old woman, stop talking nonsense. Tang San is a great spirit master. If he hears us talking behind our backs, he will probably cause trouble for us."

"What are you afraid of, you wimp. With Tang San's character, he is probably at the bottom of the spirit master world. With the golden suit on, he really thinks he is a golden phoenix!"

In the Sunset Forest, Tang San couldn't help but sneeze several times in a row.

"Xiao San, the weather has been getting cold recently, don't catch a cold." Tang Hao reminded.

Soul masters are generally not troubled by diseases, and Tang Hao didn't know why Tang San was coughing.

"It's okay, I choked when I was swallowing saliva just now." Tang San casually gave an excuse.

Tang Hao didn't care. He pointed to the forest in the distance and said, "Looking at the terrain and the surrounding environment, there should be rock beasts there. Xiao San, the Clear Sky Hammer is a power-type martial spirit. The spirit ring you need should preferably come from a power-type spirit beast."

The rock beasts are a type of giant ape, but their bodies are covered with a layer of earth-gray hair, which makes them look like they are wearing a layer of stone armor from a distance, hence the name.

"Dad, the first soul ring of the Clear Sky Hammer, I want to absorb the ten thousand year soul ring!"

"No." Tang Hao rejected it outright.

Tang San's current body was still just a Soul Sect after all. A 10,000-year soul ring could only be absorbed by a Soul King. Once he couldn't withstand the mental shock, Tang San would completely become a walking corpse.

Tang San raised his head, looking puzzled, "Dad, is it so difficult to absorb a ten thousand year spirit ring? My fourth spirit ring is as old as five thousand five hundred years, and I didn't find it very difficult at the time."

Tang Hao asked tentatively, "Xiao San, do you know what soul shock is?"

Tang San shook his head blankly.

He had never heard of this word before today.

Come to think of it, Yu Xiaogang is just a great soul master. He has never even absorbed a thousand-year soul ring, let alone a ten-thousand-year soul ring.

Tang Hao had no intention of blaming him and simply explained it to Tang San.

"Why didn't the teacher tell me that?" Tang San murmured.

This is considered the most important thing in absorbing the Ten Thousand Year Spirit Ring. Logically, the teacher should not forget it.

Suddenly, Tang San figured it out.

He is not yet at the level to absorb a ten thousand year spirit ring, so it is normal that the teacher did not tell him.

"Dad, why can Qi Tian's fourth spirit ring absorb the ten thousand year spirit ring?" Tang San suddenly asked.

He did not think that he was weaker than Qi Tian. Besides, the plan of the Clear Sky Hammer soul ring that Yu Xiaogang gave him was at least a black soul ring. He absorbed all the ten thousand year soul rings, and when he returned, his teacher would definitely not blame him.

How could Tang Hao know what Qi Tian's situation was? Maybe Dugu Bo had mastered some method that happened to be applicable to Qi Tian's situation, so it was just a blind cat catching a dead mouse and the absorption was successful.

"Xiao San, you have a twin martial spirit, your potential is far greater than his. Since the first ring of the Clear Sky Hammer began six thousand years ago, you have already surpassed all the soul masters on the continent."

Tang San was somewhat unwilling to accept this, as the Clear Sky Hammer with all black rings would be extremely powerful.

The power of a ten thousand year soul skill will definitely undergo a qualitative change compared to a thousand year soul skill.

"Dad, I want to try it!"
