Priest / Choosing a Divine Position
These rewards can enhance the strength of these examinees, such as Soul Power and Soul Ring.
Those Soul Master on the mainland don't have such a reward bestowed by the gods.
Bo Saixi believed that the Sea God Island team would definitely defeat the Martial Soul Hall Team, just like Sea God Island had defeated the Spirit Hall's Soul Master before.

Sea Maiden City, Castle Lord's Mansion
The infamous Sea Witch on Sea God Island looked on with a headache as the blue-haired girl whined and rolled around in front of her.
"It's not that you're not allowed to go out to sea, but look at yourself, all your Soul Skill are support-type. You need at least one person with you at the beach." The Sea Witch couldn't understand it either.
Mermaids are her family's offspring. In the sea, compared to the powerful Martial Soul of various sharks and whales, the physical strength of mermaids is somewhat weak. However, they are experts in mental Martial Soul, making them top-tier Martial Soul.
With the awakening of her mermaid Martial Soul, Doria could at least become a control-type Soul Master, even if she couldn't become Power Attack System Soul Master.
However, Doria turned out to be a pure support-type Soul Master.
He possesses top-tier cultivation talent and a top-tier Beast Martial Soul Martial Soul, yet his development path is incongruously focused on support, even though his Soul Skill are indeed quite impressive...
It's not that the Sea Witch discriminates against support-type Soul Master, but...
It's better to rely on yourself than on others. In the end, this world is all about strength, and she still hopes that Doria can have the strength to protect herself.
Putting everything else aside, Sea God Trial when Doria was eighteen. With her talent, she would at least have passed the lowest level of the exam. But as a support-type Soul Master, could she have passed it alone?
"Duoduo, don't blame me for being too strict. You're a support-type Soul Master, you don't have much ability to protect yourself. There are God of Evil Soul Beast that attack from time to time at the beach, you really can't play there, understand?"
"I understand... I'm sorry," Doria said in a muffled voice.
The Sea Witch stroked her adopted daughter and apprentice with a touch of tenderness.
When the Sea Witch first learned that the girl might be a mermaid-human hybrid like herself, she was excited and adopted the child who had been abandoned on the beach almost without hesitation.
Having personally raised this girl, feeling the pulse and purity of her bloodline, the Sea Witch considered Doria as her own family.
"I was with a group of mermaids when I played at the beach, I wasn't playing alone," Doria finally couldn't help but explain.
She was born with an affinity for the ocean, and those weak Sea Soul Beast would never attack her. Mermaid Soul Beast would even befriend her and treat her as one of their own kind.
Because Doria possesses the talent of a mermaid priestess, she is revered and protected by the mermaid clan, and her songs can attract followers for her.
"Are you really not a mermaid?" The Sea Witch couldn't help but question Doria's words.
She didn't even receive this treatment among the mermaids...
Chapter 158 Priest
Qian Daoliu tossed the completed letter aside once again.
He genuinely didn't know how to smooth things over for Qian Xunji without ruining his goodwill with Bo Saixi.
The thought of that beautiful yet powerful figure filled Qian Daoliu with complex and conflicted emotions.
Even though I was rejected, I still really like it!
It was because of this affection that Qian Daoliu did what he considered to be the act of a petty person for the first time.
While pursuing Bo Saixi with Tang Chen, Bo Saixi made a demand to reach level 100 and become a god.
Qian Daoliu knew this was a polite way of rejecting him. Both Bo Saixi and Qian Daoliu were divine messengers, and naturally knew that becoming a divine messenger, a guardian of divine inheritance, meant being unable to become a god for life.
But Tang Chen was unaware of this and left directly to seek the path to godhood.
Qian Daoliu felt guilty for not reminding the other party in time, and for failing his own sense of justice and righteousness.
If Qian Xunji knew, he would definitely laugh at Qian Daoliu, that old fool. The requirement to become a god at level 100 was proposed by Bo Saixi herself. Whether Qian Daoliu said it or not, if Tang Chen wanted to be officially with Bo Saixi and fight for a future, he had to find a way to become a god.
These two lovers are having their own disagreements and won't say what's on their minds. Are they going to blame the people watching them being lovey-dovey and heartbroken for not trying to bring them together?
Moreover, in Qian Xunji's view, Qian Daoliu and Tang Chen were completely outmatched in their pursuit of Bo Saixi.
As a fellow guardian of the divine positions, Bo Saixi knew Qian Daoliu's background well.
As guardians, both Qian Daoliu and Bo Saixi have their own missions.
In short, if you're in a long-distance relationship, you could lose your spouse at any time in the future.
And what about Tang Chen?
The other party is not a guardian of the divine position; their Soul Power was cultivated little by little on their own. Although they are old, they still have a chance to become a god.
In short, Tang Chen can not only stay with Bo Saixi on Sea God Island, but also has the opportunity to become a god. He might even be able to save Bo Saixi in the future, and the two of them could have a future together.
If the two people were standing together, neither of them, assuming they had normal thinking abilities, would choose Qian Daoliu.
··························
The doors to the Worship Hall were pushed open, Qian Daoliu up to see his rebellious son.
"Hey, what are you doing? Writing a letter to your old flame?" Qian Xunji stepped forward, picked up a discarded piece of paper, and began to read it.
"Long time no see, Xiao west, this time..."
"Shut up!" Qian Daoliu still had some sense of shame and immediately rushed forward to cover Qian Xunji's mouth.
It was just a perfectly normal statement, but why did it feel so off when Qian Xunji read it in that tone? There was a strange sense of shame about it.
Now that the entire Spirit Hall is under Qian Xunji's control, he naturally knows that Sea God Island sent a letter to the Worship Hall.
"Grandpa, what are you thinking?" After teasing his father, Qian Xunji got down to business.
He's usually quite clear-headed when we're discussing serious matters.
"You should know that Sea God Island and the Spirit Hall have conflicting ideologies, and the current lack of conflict is solely due to their distance." This is compounded by the existence of the Sea God behind Sea God Island.
"The main reason why the Spirit Hall wanted to take over Sea God Island was because of the strange phenomenon on Sea God Island: the coexistence of humans and beasts!"
Otherwise, there are other islands overseas besides Sea God Island. Why would the Spirit Hall bother going so far to deal with Sea God Island?
The Spirit Hall has always been hostile to Soul Beast; there are almost no powerful Soul Beast in human-inhabited areas on the continent.
Most of the Soul Beast gathered in various forests, their activity range controlled by the Spirit Hall, and dared not easily step out of the forest.
In a weak position!
This is why there are so many Soul Master on the mainland. Basically, with the support of the Spirit Hall, any Soul Master with Innate Soul Power can officially become Soul Master as long as they can cultivate to level ten.
The way Sea God Island interacts with Soul Beast is considered heretical by the Spirit Hall.
"Sea God Island is the legacy of the Sea God." This time, Qian Daoliu didn't argue with Qian Xunji. He spoke calmly with Qian Xunji, his expression serious.
"That place is beyond our control. Your most important task now is to complete your divine trial. I will be content if I can see you and Xiao Xue become gods in my lifetime."
"He's really getting old; he's lost all his ambition."
"I'm unusually speaking to you properly today, so don't cause trouble." Qian Daoliu a deep breath and loosened his clenched fist.
"You're only a little over a hundred years old, the perfect age to strive and improve. Why don't you work harder and break through to level 100 to become a priest?" All those who haven't attained a divine position but Soul Power Level is above level 100 are priests. Although they are at the bottom among the gods, they are still immortal gods.
"What do you know? Opening the passage to the Angel God Temple requires the sacrifice of the guardian of the god to trigger divine power." Qian Daoliu's eyes were filled with desolation as he said this. Divine power helped him quickly improve his strength and become Limit Douluo, but it was also his path to death.
Furthermore, the divine position of the Angel God would also limit these guardians from breaking through level 100.
"It's still because you're weak," Qian Xunji scoffed. "If you had enough divine power, or if you could simply become a god, why would you need to sacrifice yourself?"
"And..." Qian Xunji looked at the Angel Statue behind Qian Daoliu.
"Even with two Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul, you still cannot advance to the rank of priest..."
The words weren't finished, but the meaning was already conveyed.
"..."
Qian Daoliu remained silent.
Under the constraints imposed by the gods, is it truly possible for him to break through to level 100?
Qian Daoliu, but after hearing Qian Xunji's words, a faint hope rose in his heart.
Moreover, this rebellious son knows more and more, and judging from his tone, it seems that he doesn't even respect the priests.
"What exactly is your divine test? Can't you tell me now?" Qian Daoliu suddenly asked. He had held back many times before, never asking, but this time he really couldn't hold back anymore.
He has been secretly watching Qian Xunji for so many years, but he hasn't seen Qian Xunji do anything that looks like he's taking a divine test!
He was genuinely curious.
An unknown god chose the descendant of the Angel God as his successor, and then, seemingly without any difficult divine tests, this rebellious son gained immense divine power and Soul Power.
"Hmm..." Qian Xunji scratched his head, looking at the various divine tests, such as the Food God, the Thunder God, and the Fire God, that were synchronized to the System Panel, and fell into deep thought.
Which one should he choose to talk about?
"You probably wouldn't understand even if I explained, just like you wouldn't understand how Xiao Xue was born, but..." Qian Xunji said seemingly generously.
"Tell me before you offer the sacrifice, and I'll spare your life and make you my priest, how about that?"
"Get lost!" Qian Daoliu somewhat moved, but seeing Qian Xunji's current expression, he couldn't be moved at all.
"Oh!" Qian Xunji finished speaking about the important matter and left immediately without intending to stay any longer.
Chapter 159 Choosing a God
In fact, when Bian Que had just become the Soul King at the age of twelve, he had already received the God of Food God's test.
Even gods would change their principles when faced with true genius.
At first, the Food God was torn between Oscar and Bian Que, but as the difference Bian Que Oscar Soul Power gradually widened, he made up his mind.
Bian Que was two years younger than Oscar. When Bian Que obtained his fifth Soul Ring and broke through to level 51, Oscar was only level 28.
Bian Que currently at level 55, while Oscar is only at level 31.
At Oscar's current rate of advancement, becoming Titled Douluo would take forever, and reaching level 100 and becoming a god is even more uncertain.
Bian Que's Martial Soul, the Calamity Spirit Medicine, is quite special. It belongs to the food category and is also a medicine, so it can also be used as a weapon.
Normally, a food-type Soul Master's Martial Soul cannot be used as a weapon, since they wouldn't eat poisonous food. But Bian Que is an exception!
His Calamity Spirit Medicine can also be thrown out to create a poisonous mist, causing enemies within its range to suffer continuous damage and lose health.
If Bian Que were to use a touch of the Blood Swan Kiss, even Titled Douluo would be defeated.
