Civilian Soul Masters in Douluo World

Chapter 258 Assessment
As Tie Wu stepped down from the Soul Arena, his excitement was palpable. Defeating a level 48 Soul Master had given him a clear understanding of his own strength.

"Brother Wu, you've broken through to the fourth-ring Soul Master level?"

A tall, thin young man ran over, wearing the robes of a White Fang Sect disciple, followed by three or four other White Fang Sect disciples.

He was from the Soul Master family his father had mentioned in his letter, and they were related to his family. One of his family members had joined the Soul Master faction in the Northern City, which was the White Fang Sect.

Actually, he is a year older than Tie Wu.

"Hmm." Tie Wu nodded lightly.

When Gao Jin saw that Tie Wu had replied, he wanted to say more to build a closer relationship, which was also for the sake of the White Fang Sect disciples behind him.

Tie Wu's reply was lukewarm; after saying a few words, he found an excuse to leave.

"I didn't expect that you, Gao Jin, actually knew a genius soul master from the Spirit Hall."

"I've heard the elders mention that Tie Wu. He's not even twenty years old yet, but I didn't expect him to be a four-ring Soul Master. His talent is even stronger than Senior Brother Yu's."

"Sigh, if we could reach level 30 before we turn 20, we'd be so grateful."

Hearing the flattery in the White Fang Sect disciple's tone, Gao Jin straightened his posture, as if his relationship with Tie Wu was extraordinary, and flattering Tie Wu was equivalent to flattering him.

"By the way, Gao Jin, is your soul power level about to break through level 30?" a disciple of the White Fang Sect asked.

"I'm level 29 now, and I'll definitely reach level 30 this month." Gao Jin's tone was filled with excitement.

Once you reach level 30, you can become an inner disciple of the White Fang Sect, and your benefits will be greatly improved.

The disciples of the White Fang Sect all looked at Gao Jin with envy. They were all second-ring Great Soul Masters, and they were quite a distance away from level 30.

After leaving the Great Soul Arena, Tie Wu returned to his dormitory.

"The assessment is in half a month. I heard that this assessment will be held in Wuhun City. This is an opportunity," Tie Wu thought to himself.

Each city's Spirit Hall branch recruits talented young Spirit Masters, who, after instruction and training, participate in each Spirit Hall assessment.

If he can achieve good results, not only will the young soul master receive training from the Spirit Hall, but the Spirit Hall branch where he previously belonged will also receive a generous amount of resources.

Under this clear reward and punishment mechanism, every Spirit Hall that discovers a good Spirit Master will try its best to recruit him into the Spirit Hall and carefully cultivate him.

Tie Wu was one of the most talented people in the Martial Soul Branch Hall of Beidi City, which is why Lurs took Tie Wu as his disciple and trained him carefully.

In order to participate in the assessment on time, each Martial Soul Branch Hall will set off early, especially those Martial Soul Branch Halls that are far away from Martial Soul City.

Ten days before the assessment began, the Martial Soul Branch Hall of Beidi City set off with this group of young Soul Masters.

They were protected by three high-ranking deacons, all of whom possessed the cultivation level of a five-ring Soul King.

Including Tie Wu, there are a total of seven young soul masters participating in the assessment, all of whom have a soul power level of 35 or above.

"Brother Tiewu, Baiyue can't come with us this time." Xiao Zi came to Tiewu's carriage.

Besides Tie Wu, there were two other young Soul Masters. They knew about the relationship between Tie Wu and Xiao Zi, so they were not surprised by the scene before them, as long as they did not do anything out of line.

Tie Wu gave an awkward smile after hearing Xiao Zi's words.

The journey was relatively uneventful, after all, this was a team from the Spirit Hall, and many spirit master forces were quite sensible about it.

Spirit City is the exclusive city of the Spirit Hall. Tie Wu and his group are teams from various Spirit Hall branches. As soon as they enter Spirit City, they are greeted by dedicated Spirit Masters.

"You can stay on the fourth floor, one room each."

The Soul Master who received them led the seven Iron Warriors to a reception area comparable to a luxury hotel, with ten floors, each decorated in a very luxurious manner.

The seven members of the Iron Martial team each had a number plate corresponding to their room number. "Okay."

"Then you should rest well. If you need anything, you can come to us," the Soul Master said.

They spent six days on the road, and had four days to rest. The assessment would officially begin in four days, and staff would come to notify them.

The seven people who received their numbers went to their respective rooms to rest, as they were all inevitably a little tired after the bumpy journey.

As soon as Tie Wu entered the room, he saw a comfortable, white bed. The room was fully equipped and had a private bathroom.

After taking off my slightly dusty clothes, I took a hot shower and then lay down on the big bed, quickly falling asleep.

When Tie Wu woke up, it was already the next day.

The Spirit Hall is not short of money, and it will do its best to satisfy every Spirit Master in terms of material enjoyment.

This reception area, comparable to a luxury hotel, has a dedicated canteen serving food and drinks.

After waking up, Tie Wu headed towards the cafeteria.

The food served in the cafeteria was plentiful. After a simple and satisfying meal, Tie Wu's gaze fell on the familiar figure in front of him.

Xiao Zi was having breakfast with a young Soul Master, chatting and laughing. This scene made Tie Wu's face stiffen.

“Yan Yu, a young Soul Master from the Nur City Martial Soul Branch Hall, with a Soul Power level of 41, is seventeen years old this year.” Bai Ka sat down next to Tie Wu and said in a calm tone.

Bai Ka is one of the seven members of the Martial Soul Branch Hall in Beidi City, and his relationship with Tie Wu is fairly good.

Xiao Zi felt the gazes on her and subconsciously looked up, only to see Tie Wu and Bai Ka. Her expression changed slightly, and she was about to get up to explain.

Tie Wu and Bai Ka left their seats immediately.

"Xiao Zi, what's wrong?" Yan Yu followed Xiao Zi's gaze and saw only a dining table, so he asked.

Xiao Zi's complexion returned to normal, and compared to Tie Wu, Yan Yu was clearly superior.

"It's nothing, I just misread it." His attitude was even more enthusiastic than before.

Tie Wu and Bai Ka walked out of the cafeteria and found that there were more Soul Masters at the reception center today than yesterday.

"By the way, how do you know so much?" Tie Wu asked.

For example, I had absolutely no idea about Yan Yu just now.

"I spent some Gold Soul Coins yesterday, and then I found out," Bai Ka said with a half-smile.

For the remaining few days, Tie Wu stayed in the reception center and did not go to Wuhun City for sightseeing.

The day before the assessment, the staff announced the assessment content.

The assessment is a one-on-one individual battle between Soul Masters. The Soul Masters sent by the various Martial Soul Branch Halls are divided into thirty-two groups. The Soul Masters engage in one-on-one Soul Battles, and the winner gains one point. The two with the highest scores will advance to the next round.

In the group stage, any outstanding young Soul Masters will still attract the attention of the Spirit Hall.

Tie Wu was assigned to the seventeenth group. There were a total of sixteen Soul Masters in the clan. After scanning around, he saw Yan Yu's name. He was in the same group as him.

"Is it really such a coincidence?" Tie Wu was seething with anger. Xiao Zi hadn't come to see him for the past few days, which already explained the situation.

It turns out I misjudged her; it's my own fault for having poor judgment.
