"Next, it's time to test your Soul Power."
Steward Wang stood before the registration counter of Spirit Hall, looking warmly at Liu Feng.
Then, he took out a crystal-clear Soul Testing Crystal Ball from beneath the records desk behind him and gently placed it on the counter. "Place your hand on it."
Liu Feng took a deep breath and slowly placed his hand over the Crystal Ball.
In an instant, the Crystal Ball bloomed with a gentle light, like ripples spreading across a calm lake, clearly reflecting Liu Feng's Soul Power.
The light was not dazzling, but it was steady and pure.
"Level eleven, that's right." Steward Wang Slightly Nodded, A Flash in the Eyes carrying a trace of approval. "Your Soul Power is quite stable. This is a good start."
"Thank you, Steward Wang." Liu Feng's Corner of the Mouth lifted, unable to conceal the excitement in his eyes. The joy of successfully becoming a Soul Master spread through the Bottom of the Heart.
"Alright, your advancement assessment has been successfully completed. From this moment on, you are a proud Soul Master of the Heaven Dou Empire. Welcome to the ranks of Soul Masters. From now on, you may use the badge issued shortly to collect a monthly allowance from Spirit Hall. At present, you are a Junior Soul Master and will receive one Gold Soul Coin each month. Once you advance to Soul Grandmaster, the allowance will rise to ten Gold Soul Coins."
Steward Wang patiently explained Spirit Hall's subsidy policy for low-ranked Soul Masters to Liu Feng.
"Thank you so much, Steward Wang." Liu Feng expressed his gratitude sincerely. Spirit Hall's subsidy was undoubtedly recognition of his efforts and provided material support for his path as a Soul Master.
Steward Wang turned to Liu Qing, his eyes full of curiosity. "Shopkeeper Liu, did this Soul Hunting Journey go smoothly?"
Liu Qing nodded slightly and said with relief, "There were some twists and turns, but fortunately, the result was good. We got through it without danger."
"That's good. Travel safely." Steward Wang smiled as he offered his blessing.
After completing the registration and test, Liu Feng and Liu Qing Stepped Out of Spirit Hall.
By then, night had gently enveloped Prosperous Dragon Town. The Lights along Both Sides of the streets Lit Up one after another like scattered stars, adding a little warmth and tranquility to the town.
"Xiao Feng," Liu Qing said, his eyes full of pride, "you must continue working hard in the future and strive to become a Strong Person as soon as possible."
"I will, Dad." Liu Feng's gaze was firm, and his voice was filled with determination. "I won't let you or Grandpa down."
After leaving the Martial Soul Branch Hall, Liu Feng Clenched the brand-new Soul Master Badge in his hand, feeling both excited and A Little tired.
This badge was not only a symbol of his identity, but also proof that he had embarked on the journey of a Soul Master.
Liu Qing looked up at the sky and said to Liu Feng, "Xiao Feng, you've worked hard today. Let's find somewhere to rest for the night and go home tomorrow."
Liu Feng smiled and nodded. "No problem, Dad. You decide."
The father and son slowly made their way along the street. Before long, a sign bearing the name "Clear Breeze Inn" came into view.
This inn was rather famous in town, known for its clean and tidy environment as well as its warm, attentive service.
The inn's storefront was not large, but it was kept in perfect order. A bright lamp hung above the entrance, casting a soft glow.
From afar, the light seemed like a warm haven from the memories of his Previous Life, leaving Liu Feng somewhat dazed.
Only when he drew closer did he realize that this lamp was Completely Different from the light bulbs of his Previous Life.
"This is a Soul Tool. It can emit light when infused with Soul Power. The owner of this inn is a Soul Master, and he found this lamp in some Ruins during his early years." Liu Qing noticed his son's gaze and patiently explained.
"Ruins? Are there many such Ruins?" Liu Feng asked curiously.
Liu Qing considered for a moment before slowly saying, "Low-level Soul Masters shouldn't even think about it. Most of those Ruins are located in dangerous areas. To explore them, you need to be at least a Soul Ancestor. Ordinary Soul Tools can still be found at some Auction Houses, but I don't know much about anything else."
"As for the owner of this inn, his surname is Wang. He is a level forty-five Soul Ancestor who explored Ruins in his youth. He brought back all these Soul Tools himself. Later, as he grew older, he settled down in Prosperous Dragon Town."
"Although this Clear Breeze Inn is not very large and has not been open for long, it has already become one of the best inns nearby thanks to the novelty of its Soul Tools and its excellent service."
As they chatted, the two arrived at the entrance of Clear Breeze Inn.
It was a two-story building with pale yellow stone-brick walls, giving it a warm and comfortable feeling.
Above the main entrance hung a huge sign. The four golden words "Clear Breeze Inn" gleamed beneath the lights, especially eye-catching.
On Both Sides of the entrance stood a Waiter in blue uniforms, each wearing a friendly smile as they welcomed every guest.
Several pots of fresh flowers sat on the steps, adding a touch of vibrant life to the inn.
Liu Qing pushed open the inn's door and led Liu Feng inside.
A wave of warmth Rushed Towards them, dispelling the faint chill of the night.
Several wooden tables and chairs stood on the Left Side of the inn. In the fireplace in the corner, flames burned brightly, making the entire hall pleasantly warm.
The hall was spacious and bright, with a red carpet covering the floor, making it look especially neat.
Behind a large circular counter in the center of the hall stood a female clerk in a blue uniform. She smiled as she approached them.
"Welcome to Clear Breeze Inn. Are you two staying the night?" Her voice was gentle and sweet.
"Yes, we need two rooms." Liu Qing Slightly Nodded, A Little fatigue showing on his face.
"Certainly. Please wait a moment." The clerk quickly recorded their information in the register, then handed over two keys. "These are the keys to your rooms, 201 and 202 on the Second Floor. We hope you enjoy your stay."
"Thank you." Liu Qing accepted the keys with a smile.
Liu Qing then said to the clerk, "Please bring us a few of the inn's Signature Dishes, along with a pot of hot wine and a glass of drink for the child."
The clerk replied with a smile, "Of course! Please wait a moment. I'll arrange it right away."
Before long, the Waiter brought over a steaming pot of wine, a bottle of freshly squeezed Grape Juice, and several plates of appetizing dishes.
The table held Steamed Fish, Stir-fried Seasonal Vegetables, and a plate of fragrant Roasted Meat. The tempting aroma instantly swept away the father and son's fatigue from the day.
"You've been tired all day. Eat and drink your fill, then get some proper rest." Liu Qing raised his Wine Glass and took a small sip, warmth spreading through his stomach.
The father and son enjoyed the delicious food while chatting happily, savoring this rare moment of relaxation.
After eating and drinking their fill, Liu Qing and Liu Feng climbed the stairs to the Second Floor. Rooms 201 and 202 were adjacent, making it convenient for them to look after one another.
Liu Qing opened the door to room 201 and let Liu Feng enter first.
The room was warmly and comfortably furnished. A neat single bed stood on one side, with a table lamp placed atop the Bedside Table.
A small desk stood in the corner, with writing materials and a map thoughtfully provided by the inn laid on top.
White curtains hung over the window, and through them, the bustling street outside could be seen.
The room also had a private bathroom where guests could enjoy a refreshing shower.
"This place is quite clean. Get some good rest. If anything comes up, come next door and call for me." Liu Qing looked around the room with satisfaction and spoke to Liu Feng.
"Mm, it really is nice." Liu Feng smiled and nodded, placing his Backpack on the bed. He prepared to tidy up, take a Hot Bath, and get a good night's sleep.
Liu Qing returned to his own room and placed the roots of the Earth Net Spirit Root beside the bed.
Although the outer portions with poor Medicinal Effect had already been removed, The Remaining roots were still over a meter long. Carrying them on his back for half the day had left his waist sore and his back aching.
He first went to the bathroom for a shower, changed into clean clothes, and prepared to rest.
"Xiao Feng, get some rest early. We're heading home first thing tomorrow morning," Liu Qing called through the wall.
"I understand. You should sleep early too," Liu Feng replied, a trace of weariness in his voice.
This day held extraordinary significance for Liu Feng.
At the age of ten, he had successfully become a One-Ring Soul Master.
