Notting Academy

"Good! Good!"

"As long as you can become a spirit master!"

When Village Chief Su Meiqian heard that, he immediately grew excited.

Trash Spirit or not, he did not care. All he needed to know was that Mo Bai really could become a spirit master!

In the end, the village's only Work-study student slot fell to Mo Bai.

According to Village Chief Su Meiqian, the village's Work-study student slot had not been used in ten years!

In other words, in the past ten years, there had not been a single child in the village with the potential to become a spirit master.

At that, Mo Bai sighed inwardly. So spirit masters were actually this far removed from ordinary villagers?

A few days later, Village Chief Su Meiqian personally took Mo Bai by ox cart to Notting City, the largest of the several cities around Meilin Village.

The academy he was going to attend was Notting Academy, the Junior Spirit Master Academy in Notting City.

Only the spirit master academy here accepted Work-study students!

The speed of an ox cart was easy to imagine.

They set out early in the morning, and it was not until the next day that Mo Bai arrived in Notting City.

Village Chief Su Meiqian had been there once before, so he knew where Notting Academy was. He led Mo Bai straight to Notting Academy's gates.

"We're not lying. Look, this is the certificate issued to us by Deacon Su Yuntao of Spirit Hall. Xiao San really is a Work-study student here to study!"

As soon as they arrived, Mo Bai saw a familiar scene.

An old man and a child had been stopped by Notting Academy's Gatekeeper and were not being allowed in.

"Is that Tang San?"

Mo Bai's gaze locked directly onto the ordinary-looking child.

As if sensing Mo Bai's gaze, Tang San turned his head and looked straight at Mo Bai.

However, Tang San did not notice anything different and withdrew his gaze.

What sharp perception!

Mo Bai thought inwardly, not daring to underestimate Tang San anymore.

Someone who could become the protagonist of Douluo was indeed extraordinary.

Only, that still did not change Mo Bai's disdain for Tang San. His martial spirit was Blue Silver Grass, yet he actually went down the control system path. Mo Bai despised that intensely.

"Holy Soul Village... martial spirit Blue Silver Grass... and it's actually Innate Full Soul Power..."

"Haha, I've been here for so many years, and I've never seen a student with Innate Full Soul Power. And you still say this isn't fake?"

"Get lost. Hurry up and get out of here..."

At that moment, after the Gatekeeper checked the certificate that Holy Soul Village Chief Old Jack had taken out, he immediately burst into mocking laughter. He casually threw the certificate onto the ground, then told Old Jack and Tang San to get lost.

"Martial spirit Blue Silver Grass! Innate Full Soul Power!"

"Little Mo Bai, that child is actually the same as you, both Innate Full Soul Power and martial spirit Blue Silver Grass!"

Beside Mo Bai, Village Chief Su Meiqian was shocked when he heard the Gatekeeper's mocking words and could not help speaking to Mo Bai.

Bang~

At that moment, the Gatekeeper, who had originally wanted to drive Village Chief Old Jack and Tang San away, suddenly flew backward and crashed to the ground.

Tang San had made a move, directly pushing the Gatekeeper away with one hand.

At this moment, Tang San was still staring coldly at the Gatekeeper as he got up, as if ready to continue at any time.

"Stop!"

However, just as Tang San was preparing to fire his Sleeve Arrow and kill the Gatekeeper, Grandmaster appeared just as in the original work. He walked past Mo Bai and stepped between Tang San and the Gatekeeper.

"Grandmaster!"

When the Gatekeeper saw Grandmaster appear, his expression immediately changed.

"My apologies. On behalf of the academy, I apologize to you. In this matter, our academy was at fault first!"

Grandmaster ignored the Gatekeeper and turned to apologize to Village Chief Old Jack.

"N-no need. We're fine..."

Old Jack immediately waved his hands to show that it was all right. Being apologized to by someone who was clearly an important figure at a glance left him very apprehensive!

"May I look at your certificate?"

Grandmaster's gaze, however, had fallen on the certificate Old Jack had picked up.

"Yes, here you are!"

Hearing that, Old Jack quickly presented it with both hands.

From the side, Mo Bai saw Grandmaster take the certificate with some urgency and begin checking it.

"This is indeed Spirit Hall's seal. This certificate is genuine!"

After Grandmaster saw Innate Full Soul Power and Blue Silver Grass, his expression inevitably became somewhat excited. Seeing that the certificate truly had been issued by Spirit Hall, he forcefully suppressed his excitement and spoke to Old Jack.

"And that old gentleman over there, if you don't mind, please let me see your certificate as well!"

Immediately afterward, Grandmaster suddenly turned his head again and spoke to Village Chief Su Meiqian, who had been watching the show from the side.

"O-of course. Please wait!"

"Little Mo Bai, hurry and take out the certificate!"

Village Chief Su Meiqian, standing beside Mo Bai, probably had not expected Grandmaster to suddenly do this. Even so, he quickly agreed respectfully, then urged Mo Bai to take out the certificate for Grandmaster to see.

He did not want what had just happened to Tang San and Old Jack to befall them too!

What else could Mo Bai do? He could not refuse at all, and there was nothing worth hiding, so he casually took out the certificate Su Yuntao had issued to him.

Whoosh~

Village Chief Su Meiqian reached out and snatched it, then hurried forward and presented it with both hands, handing it to Grandmaster.

After Grandmaster took it, he also quickly began checking it.

"It's actually genuine too!"

After Grandmaster saw Mo Bai's certificate, shock once again appeared in his eyes.

"This certificate is also genuine. If you don't mind, I will take Tang San and Mo Bai inside to register!"

Afterward, Grandmaster forcefully suppressed the excitement in his heart, raised his head, and spoke to Old Jack and Village Chief Su Meiqian.

"Of course, of course you can!"

"Yes, yes!"

"Then we'll have to trouble you!"

"We'll have to trouble you!"

Hearing that, Old Jack and Su Meiqian were overjoyed and quickly agreed.

"Little Mo Bai, after you register with Grandmaster, you must work hard at the academy, understand?"

Afterward, Village Chief Su Meiqian began exhorting Mo Bai.

"I understand. Don't worry, Village Chief Grandpa. When I come back for break, maybe I'll already be a spirit master!"

Mo Bai nodded and smiled.

"Good, good, good. Then work hard, Little Mo Bai. I believe you can definitely do it. Village Chief Grandpa will wait in the village for your good news!"

Hearing that, Village Chief Su Meiqian was delighted.

"Tang San, Mo Bai! You two follow me in!"

After Grandmaster saw that both village chiefs had finished their instructions, he spoke to Tang San and Mo Bai.

"Yes!"

Tang San answered.

"Mm!"

Mo Bai did as well.

Afterward, under the two village chiefs' gazes, Mo Bai and Tang San followed Grandmaster into Notting Academy.

"This is the first time, and also the last time. If it happens again, you need not remain here."

As they passed the Gatekeeper, Grandmaster's expression was cold as he rebuked him.

"Yes, Grandmaster!"

Cold sweat poured down the Gatekeeper's back, and he hurriedly echoed him again and again while dodging to the side.
