(Fourth update)
Even more astonishingly, every patrol guard on Spirit City's six walls was a Spirit Master, all at least level 10 and dressed in uniforms specially made by Spirit Hall.
This alone was enough to make others green with envy.
Even Heaven Dou Empire's capital, Heaven Dou City, could not afford such extravagance as assigning so many Spirit Masters to serve as patrol guards. It was practically wasteful spending, yet Spirit Hall did exactly that.
Of course, Spirit Hall had the confidence to do so. After all, at least one-third of the Spirit Masters across the continent were affiliated with Spirit Hall.
On each of the six city walls stood an enormous relief, identical to those on Spirit Hall's token: a crown, chrysanthemum, ghost, dragon, sword, and hammer. Each represented one of the most powerful Martial Souls on the present-day Douluo Continent.
Passing through the arched city gate and entering Spirit City, they were greeted by a broad, straight road paved with bluestone slabs, wide enough for four horses to ride abreast. Yet there were few pedestrians on the streets. Most of those coming and going were Spirit Masters, while ordinary people were scarcely seen.
Rows of shops stood neatly along both sides of the road. Besides basic daily necessities, most sold items needed by Spirit Masters. There were also quite a few varieties of Soul Tools, serving all kinds of purposes: some aided Spirit Masters in meditation, some could be attached to clothing and came with their own cleaning function, and some were precious spatial storage Soul Tools. Though their storage capacity could not compare to the Nethersea Ring, they were still outrageously expensive. Yang Ming took one look at the string of zeros on the price tags and promptly backed away.
Too expensive. Absolutely too expensive!
