Douluo Continent: Reborn as Qin Ming, starting by joining the Spirit Hall

Chapter 13 Difficulty

Inside the Spirit Hall of Soto City.

Qin Ming and Ke Lin, led by the deacon of the Spirit Hall, met the cardinal Salas.

Upon meeting, before Colleen and Qin Ming could even speak, Salas snorted coldly and challenged Colleen.

"Bishop Colleen, you have quite the clout."

Why did you make me wait here for so long?

Do you know how many things I have to do every day?

Because of you, I've been delayed for so long, and all the affairs in the palace have piled up, waiting for me to go back and deal with them.

Do you know how bad the consequences of this are?

"If everyone in our Spirit Hall were like you, what would become of our Spirit Hall?"

Upon hearing Salas's accusation, Colleen hurriedly responded.

"Lord Salas, I had a reason for this; I did not intentionally delay your journey..."

There must be a reason for this?

Oh--

Hunting a thousand-year-old soul beast, it would take you, a Soul King, more than half a month?

Are you people from Soto really that useless?

Before Colleen could finish speaking, Salas interrupted him.

He had already learned about Qin Ming's breakthrough to Soul Master from the deacon of the Spirit Hall.

After learning this information, Salas had the idea of ​​suppressing Corin and taking credit for Corin's achievements.

At this moment, seeing that Corinne was about to speak again, Salas snorted coldly once more.

"Alright, you don't need to explain to me anymore."

The man behind you must be Qin Ming. Just follow me.

I'll take you back to Wuhun City.

"Colin, you should stay here and reflect on your actions."

Upon hearing Salas's words, Corinne frowned.

"That old bastard really came to steal the credit..."

However, Qin Ming is not the kind of person who would abandon principles for personal gain.

Thinking about what Qin Ming had just said to him, Ke Lin felt a little relieved.

Seeing this, Qin Ming finally confirmed his previous guess.

Salas did indeed come to steal the prize.

I need to be careful around that old Deng...

However, I need to show something off now, demonstrate my value, in order to gain more.

Thinking of this, Qin Ming stepped forward and clasped his hands in a fist salute to Salas.

"Qin Ming greets Bishop Salas."

"Um."

Salas nodded slightly at Qin Ming.

"Not bad?"

He's a promising little guy.

Come, I'll take you back to Wuhun City right now.

Our Martial Soul City boasts the best mimicry training grounds, the best meditation methods, and the most comprehensive collection of scriptures on the entire continent…

A genius like you was born to belong to our Spirit Hall.

Salas's attitude towards Qin Ming was noticeably better.

Hearing Salas's words, Qin Ming spoke again.

"Bishop Salas, I have successfully broken through to the Soul Venerable realm, but I have not yet tested my soul power."

"Would it be possible to take up a little of your time, Your Excellency?"

Upon hearing this, Salas agreed without hesitation.

"It's nothing, just wait here for a bit and test it here."

With that, Salas turned and gave an order to the white-robed deacon beside him.

"Go and bring the testing crystal ball."

Upon hearing Salas's words, the deacon dared not utter another word and quickly ran outside.

After a while.

The deacon returned to the hall and brought back the crystal ball used for testing.

Seeing this, Qin Ming did not delay any longer.

He strode forward and skillfully placed his hand on the crystal ball.

As the testing crystal continuously absorbed Qin Ming's soul power, a dazzling blue light shone forth.

"Level 32 Soul Power?"

How is that possible?

Qin Ming, kid, didn't you just become a Soul Master?

How come you have level 32 soul power right after breaking through?

Salas looked at Qin Ming and Colin in astonishment.

As a Soul Saint, he could only tell that Qin Ming was a Soul Venerable, but he could not accurately determine his soul power.

He was somewhat stunned when he saw that Qin Ming already had a soul power of level 32.

Although Soul Masters can still accumulate Soul Power when they reach a bottleneck, they can break through multiple levels at once after absorbing a Soul Ring.

However, according to the information Salas had gathered, Qin Ming had only recently been promoted...

At this moment, Qin Ming was pleasantly surprised to learn that he had reached level 32 in soul power.

In the original novel, after Tang San absorbed the two-thousand-year-old Human-Faced Demon Spider's soul ring at the age of 12 and broke through to the Soul Master level, he only reached level 32 in soul power.

I have now caught up with his progress.

Moreover, I have already clearly defined my future development path.

My progress will only accelerate!

Although he was pleasantly surprised, Qin Ming did not forget the matter at hand.

After calming down a bit, I adjusted my mood.

Qin Ming looked at Salas on the stage.

Without much hesitation, Qin Ming summoned his martial spirit.

"Bishop Salas, look."

As he spoke, Qin Ming pointed to the two bulges on the shoulder of his Fiery Wolf Martial Soul.

"The spirit ring that Bishop Colin chose for me is extremely compatible with my martial spirit, and that is precisely the reason."

My martial spirit has begun to evolve.

Once those two brand-new heads grow out, the quality of my martial spirit will definitely become stronger...

At this moment, Salas could no longer maintain his previous composure.

He strode towards Qin Ming, simultaneously circulating his soul power to carefully sense Qin Ming's martial soul.

After a while.

Salas looked at Corinne with surprise; his attitude was no longer as arrogant as before.

"I never expected that Bishop Kelin had such a deep understanding of martial spirit theory."

Upon hearing Salas's words, Colleen straightened his back slightly and puffed out his chest.

Upon seeing this, Salas began to ponder to himself.

"The fact that Qin Ming's martial soul has evolved cannot be hidden no matter what."

It's a pity, it seems we'll have to report on that old codger Colleen's contribution...

After cursing inwardly, Salas's gaze towards Qin Ming was no longer as friendly as before.

However, Salas, who was aware of Qin Ming's future potential, did not choose to make things difficult for him.

He simply stated it in a businesslike manner.

"So, your soul power reaching level 32 is also due to absorbing this soul ring?"

"Yes, Bishop Salas."

Qin Ming nodded and agreed to the matter.

Upon hearing Qin Ming say this, Ke Lin immediately guessed what Qin Ming was thinking.

"Qin Ming concealed the age of his third spirit ring, which means he is wary of Salas."

He probably wasn't going to tell Salas the theory he had previously compiled about the time limit for absorbing spirit rings.

But this is fine too, since Qin Ming personally reported the matter, all the credit goes to him.

This will be of great help to his future development.

Thinking of this, Kelin lowered his head and put on an honest and obedient appearance.

At this moment, Salas felt somewhat annoyed.

I thought I could steal the credit, but I never expected something like this to happen...

Ugh, what a waste of a month of my time.

Thinking of this, Salas said somewhat impatiently.

"Alright, Qin Ming, just come over here."

You're too slow. I'll personally take you back to Wuhun City.

His Holiness the Pope wants to see you.
