After Xiao Wu finished her Soul Master assessment, Cheng Xiao and Xiao Wu left the Spirit Hall.
During the assessment, Ma Xiunuo, upon learning that Xiao Wu also possessed innate full soul power, immediately extended an invitation to her.
Of course, to avoid revealing her identity, Xiao Wu politely declined Ma Xiunuo's offer, indicating that she might consider joining the Spirit Hall after graduation.
Ma Xiunuo understood this and, as they left, gave them two Gold Soul Coins and two Soul Master badges each, which served as their proof of becoming Soul Masters.
From now on, neither of them would need to be work-study students anymore and could spend more time on cultivation.
On the way back, Xiao Wu happily looked at the Gold Soul Coins in her hand and said to Cheng Xiao with a grin, "Great! Now I can spend money on meals like you!"
"Congratulations," Cheng Xiao said with a laugh.
"Tch... No sincerity at all." Xiao Wu snorted softly, then said with a flourish, "To celebrate us becoming Soul Masters, your Xiao Wu jie is treating you to something delicious today, how about it?"
"You're treating me?" Cheng Xiao was taken aback, a little doubtful. "Are you sure?"
"What, you afraid Xiao Wu jie can't afford to treat you?" Xiao Wu said, feigning displeasure.
"Of course not." Cheng Xiao shook his head, chuckling softly. "I was just thinking, if you spend all your money, you'll be eating dust."
Hearing this, Xiao Wu's expression changed slightly. She seemed to have never considered the problem of running out of money. Then, she stuffed the Gold Soul Coins into Cheng Xiao's hand and whispered, "Then I'll leave it to you to keep for me. I'm afraid I won't be able to resist spending it all, and then I won't have money to eat."
Watching Xiao Wu's actions, Cheng Xiao was completely stunned in place. Looking down at the Gold Soul Coins in his hand, he couldn't help but feel a strange sensation.
This little rabbit, does she trust me so much?
"Oh, Xiao Wu jie is just letting you hold onto the money for now. When I want to spend it, you'll still have to give it back to me." Seeing Cheng Xiao's dazed look, Xiao Wu quickly explained for herself.
Hearing Xiao Wu's words, Cheng Xiao raised his head and looked at her innocent and playful appearance, unable to help but laugh out loud. "What if I spend it? After all, your money is in my hands."
"You dare!" Xiao Wu was a little anxious. "If you dare to spend my money, I'll, I'll… I'll make you treat me."
"Then what if I don't treat you?" Cheng Xiao asked deliberately.
"Ah! Cheng Xiao, you're so bad." Xiao Wu pouted her lips angrily and said viciously, "If you don't treat me, and I don't get to eat, I won't let you sleep well tonight!"
Hearing this, Cheng Xiao smiled and weighed the Gold Soul Coins in his hand, putting Xiao Wu's away. He then smiled and said, "Don't worry, I won't spend your money. I'm going to the blacksmith's shop now, do you want to go with me?"
"Go to the blacksmith's shop?" Xiao Wu's eyes lit up. "Then let's go quickly, I've never seen a blacksmith's shop before!"
Not long after Cheng Xiao and Xiao Wu left, Tang San also came to the Spirit Hall.
Although the master told him that this was a way for the Spirit Hall to buy people's hearts, Tang San was, after all, realistic. Without this Soul Master subsidy, he wouldn't even be able to afford food.
With this allowance, his life would improve significantly. So, he came here and was also going to collect Master's Soul Master allowance.
"Good heavens, how can there be so many people with innate full soul power today? Am I dreaming?"
In the Soul Master identification room, Ma Xiunuo rubbed his eyes hard, looking at Tang San's Blue Silver Grass, and said, "Can a useless martial soul like Blue Silver Grass be cultivated to this extent?"
Seeing Tang San's calm expression, Ma Xiunuo coughed lightly and invited Tang San to join the Spirit Hall. Unsurprisingly, he failed again this time, Tang San refused him, and even the reason was exactly the same as the previous two.
"Well, child, since you don't want to join, I won't force you." Ma Xiunuo sighed regretfully and handed Tang San the badge that symbolized the Soul Master's identity.
"Congratulations on becoming a Soul Master. Later, you can use this Soul Master badge to collect this month's Soul Master allowance. At your current level, you can collect one every month," Ma Xiunuo reminded.
"Okay, Grandpa Ma Xiunuo." Tang San nodded in response.
"By the way, Grandpa Ma Xiunuo, I have something else to trouble you with." Taking the Soul Master badge handed over by Ma Xiunuo, Tang San took out another Soul Master badge and said, "My teacher has suffered some injuries. He told me that I could collect the Soul Master allowance on his behalf, please take a look."
"Oh? Does a genius like your teacher need a Soul Master allowance?" Ma Xiunuo took the badge from Tang San with a puzzled expression and curiously said, "Let me see the name on the back of this Soul Master badge, who is lucky enough to have a disciple like you."
Flipping the badge over, Ma Xiunuo's expression immediately stiffened. He saw three small characters engraved on the back of the Soul Master badge.
"Child, have you been tricked?" Seeing the three characters "Yu Xiaogang" engraved on the back, Ma Xiunuo couldn't help but say, "How did you become a disciple of the Grandmaster?"
"Grandpa Ma Xiunuo, is there a problem with me being a disciple of the Grandmaster?" Tang San frowned. "I think my teacher is very powerful, especially his theory of martial souls. It's very important to me. I think there's no problem with me becoming his disciple."
"Well, it seems the Grandmaster's luck is good." Ma Xiunuo explained with a smile. "In the Soul Master world, your teacher's name is well-known, but I don't know if his so-called theory can help him break through level thirty."
"In these few years, he has received quite a bit of Soul Master subsidies from our Spirit Hall. At his age, can't he recognize reality? If his martial soul theory was useful, he wouldn't have to receive Soul Master subsidies."
Ma Xiunuo's words were very impolite. He looked down on people like the Grandmaster from the bottom of his heart. A man in his forties or fifties, knowing his martial soul's flaws, didn't try to solve them but insisted on proving himself with some martial soul theory.
You have to know that the only thing that can directly prove one's self on the Douluo Continent is soul power level, which means strength.
Whoever has the biggest fist, the strongest, has the right to speak. Even if Yu Xiaogang broke through the level thirty he had always failed to reach with his martial soul theory, not so many people would laugh at him. But a Soul Grand Master who can never break through level thirty...
Constantly boasting about how important, useful, and awesome his soul beast theory is, but what's the result? He can't even put his own soul beast theory into practice. Isn't that a joke?
Hearing this, the smile on Tang San's face immediately froze. He didn't know how to respond to Ma Xiunuo and could only use his smile to cover up the awkwardness of being the Grandmaster's disciple.
After a moment, Tang San walked out of the Spirit Hall with a gloomy expression. He clutched his Soul Master badge in his hand, and the Gold Soul Coins were stored in his Twenty-Four Bridge Moonlit Night.
"Teacher, I, Tang San, swear that I will prove your lifelong pursuit of soul beast theory! At that time, I will let those Soul Masters with their dog eyes down their noses know how right it was to take you as a teacher!"
Tang San secretly made up his mind to make the Grandmaster's soul beast theory shine, but for now, he planned to go back to the academy and have a good meal.
He hadn't eaten all day, and now that he had money, he naturally had to go back and have a good meal.
