Noon, Grandpa Jack finally led Lin Fan and Tang San to the Nuoding Academy.
Grandpa Jack tried to take them inside but they were immediately stopped by a gatekeeper.
The gatekeeper, saw that they were poor, so he decided to make things difficult for them.
"Stop! What do you think you're doing? Nuoding Academy isn't a place you can enter as you please!"
Lin Fan was speechless. What's wrong with This gatekeeper's brain? The academy has working students. The students are mostly commoners. There are only a few wealthy students. Why is he picking on them?
Grandpa Jack's face changed slightly, but he quickly smiled "Sir, These Two children are this year's working students from our village. Here are their recommendation letters."
The gatekeeper arrogantly took the two letters and looked at them. First one had Innate Full Soul Power with a Dragon Martial Soul. While the other also had Innate Full Soul Power but Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul.
This startled the gatekeeper. But when he saw that one of them had Innate Full Soul Power with Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul, he found it suspicious.
For some reason, Perhaps out of jealousy, he wanted to make things difficult for them. Why should these Two Poor Boys have such good talent?
The gatekeeper turned to Grandpa Jack and said "There's only one recommendation letter for working student. What's going on here?"
Grandpa Jack patiently explained "This year, our village had Two Talented children. So I requested a second recommendation letter from the Soul Master of Martial Soul Hall, I hope Nuoding Academy would make an exception and grant another spot."
Lin Fan sighed to himself. This gatekeeper is really as arrogant as he was in the original story.
In Tang San's mind, This gatekeeper had already found his path to death!
Lin Fan couldn't help but wonder whether this incident would cause Tang San to hold a grudge against him and Grandpa Jack.
The gatekeeper arrogantly declared "That won't do. Our academy only accepts students with official working student letters. As for the other one, take him back. The authority of that Soul Master from Martial Soul Hall isn't high enough!"
Grandpa Jack was furious "That Soul Master is from the Martial Soul Hall! How can you say that?"
Meanwhile, Tang San quietly stared at the gatekeeper. Light flashed in his eyes. He also glanced at Lin Fan and Grandpa Jack, his thoughts were unclear.
Lin Fan noticed this thanks to the Six-Tomoe Rinnegan's Ocular Powers.
Moreover, Lin Fan's attention had been on Tang San the whole time, so it was impossible for him to miss it.
Lin Fan decided to write his Diary. He knew that he'd get into the academy anyways. As for Tang San, Lin Fan didn't care.
[We're Actually Being Stopped By A Gatekeeper!]
No sooner than Lin Fan updated his Diary, the Female leads and The Supporting Female leads started reading it, eager to see the development.
[If It Were Just Me, I'd Show The Gatekeeper The Recommendation Letter And Easily Get In. But There's Also Tang San. For Some Reason, The Gatekeeper Refuses To Acknowledge Su Yuntao's Letter.]
[Even Though Su Yuntao Isn't That High-level, He's Still Backed By The Martial Soul Hall. A Mere Gatekeeper Shouldn't Dare To Provoke Him. Where's He Getting His Courage From?]
The Female leads and The Supporting Female leads were all shocked. This gatekeeper had some nerve! Normally, a gatekeeper at a primary Soul Master Academy was just a regular person with no Soul Power. Where did he get the audacity to act like this?
At the very least, he should let them in and leave it up to the school leaders to decide. Did he have a death wish?
[As For Tang San, As Expected, He's Quietly Watching The Gatekeeper While Tightening His Right Hand. Tang San Has Already Developed A Murderous Intent. In His Mind, The Gatekeeper Has Found His Path To Death!]
[There's A Hidden Weapon In Tang San's Right Sleeve, A Sleeve Arrow, Which He Probably Made For Self-defense. He Likely Has Other Hidden Weapons, Like Steel Needles, In His Pocket.]
[After All, In His Previous Life, Tang San Was From The Tang Sect, An Organization Known For Its Expertise In Hidden Weapons And Poison. While He Doesn't Have Any Poison Yet, His Family Is A Blacksmith's Household, So Crafting Simple Hidden Weapons Would Have Been Easy.]
[The Sleeve Arrow Is Considered A Low-level Hidden Weapon In The Tang Sect, Easy To Make But Still Deadly. A Surprise Attack Could Kill Even A Level-Twenty Soul Master.]
[Since The Gatekeeper Won't Accept Su Yuntao's Letter, Tang San Has Not Only Been Watching The Gatekeeper, But He Also Glanced At Me And Grandpa Jack. I Know That We're Both On His Hit List Now.]
[In Tang San's Mind, He's Probably Thinking, 'My Talent Is Greater Than Lin Fan's. Why Would Grandpa Jack Favor Him And Not Give Me The Working Student Spot?']
[But He Hasn't Considered That He's Hiding His Clear Sky Hammer Martial Soul. Even With His Innate Full Soul Power, His Martial Soul Appears To Be Blue Silver Grass, Which Is Considered A Trash Martial Soul. It's Only Natural That People Would Think My True Dragon God Martial Soul Has More Potential.]
[To Be Honest, In Front Of My True Dragon God Martial Soul, Even His Clear Sky Hammer Is Trash, Not To Mention I Have Two Other Martial Souls Of Same Quality.]
The Female leads and The Supporting Female leads couldn't help but agree with Lin Fan's words. They weren't surprised of Tang San's behavior. In their opinion, Tang San is too Evil.
