Douluo Continent: What do you mean this is the Holy Spirit Cult?

The two girls, named Keke and Ju Zi, looked at Qi Li and then at Xuan Ziwen, both showing expressions of surprise.

Their teacher, Xuan Ziwen, was an unprecedented oddity among all the royal soul master academies of the Sun Moon Empire.

He refused to be reassigned to teach large classes and only occasionally attended large class sessions.

He actually only had four students: three were people with connections and one ordinary student whom Xuan Ziwen found very interesting.

Now they suddenly have another classmate who is being guided by Xuan Ziwen.

Although he is very likely like them, he can only learn from others occasionally, and relies more on self-study.

But that's still quite remarkable.

The two women exchanged a glance, both wondering where this person with connections had come from.

"This is your new junior, Qi Li. He has no experience learning about soul tools. You two can mentor him, and I will give you extra credits."

I have other things to do; I need to hurry to Lab 3 to study Project 3.

Tell him all the rules and regulations for the dorms, cafeteria, and labs. I'll put in a good word for you during the final exams.

After arranging for Ju Zi and Ke Ke to take care of all the affairs of Qi Li, the new student, Xuan Ziwen turned and left, as if he had finally gotten rid of some trouble.

However, from his perspective, he probably really did get rid of a big problem.

"Junior, do you really have no foundation in soul tools?"

The petite Keke was clearly more interested in Qi Li.

Oranges, on the other hand, have a more distant feel.

Qi Li didn't pay much attention to this after he discovered it.

It is clear that not just any student is qualified to study in the laboratory of this teacher named Xuan Ziwen.

Those who can come to the other party's laboratory to study are at least connected individuals. If they are indeed connected individuals who have some understanding of the Holy Spirit Cult, it is not surprising that they would keep their distance from him after receiving some information.

He came here without any other ideas or plans, so he just let things take their course.

He shook his head and replied:

"I really don't have any foundation at all, but I saw that our school seems to only require a soul power level of ten or higher to enroll, right?"

"Well, that's what they say in theory, but in theory, our teachers still have to obediently go to the twelve teaching buildings outside to teach."

There are policies from above and countermeasures from below; theory is theory, and reality is reality.

Strictly speaking, as long as one can become a Level 3 Soul Master before the age of 18, one can graduate from the Sun Moon Empire Royal Soul Master Academy.

But in reality, which student who applies to the Sun Moon Empire Royal Soul Master Academy hasn't laid a solid foundation at home? Some even become Level 1 Soul Masters before applying to the Sun Moon Empire Royal Soul Master Academy. Isn't what they all want to do to enter the Mingde Hall?

Someone like you, without any foundation whatsoever, comes directly to the Sun Moon Empire Royal Soul Master Academy to study, and even chooses a teacher like us, who is clearly unconventional, as your mentor.

I don't know if you're just incredibly skilled and daring, or if you're simply ignorant and fearless.

Your family must be very wealthy, right? Otherwise, you definitely wouldn't have been able to impress Teacher Xuan Ziwen.

But now you should probably prepare to lose this money. After all, our teacher has very high standards. If you can't become a Level 6 Soul Master before the age of 25, you won't be able to study, work, and communicate with him in Mingde Hall.

Qi Li was filled with emotion.

As expected, Mingde Hall, as the Sun Moon Empire's top research base for Soul Masters, is not an easy place to enter.

Becoming a Level 6 Soul Master at the age of 25 means that a Soul Master must at least become a Level 5 Soul King before the age of 25, and their understanding of Soul Tools must meet the stringent requirements of the Sun Moon Empire Soul Master Academy.

However, Mingde Hall was not a place he could enter, since he was still far from being qualified in terms of both management and soul tool research.

However, he can be quite frank about the amount of savings he currently has in response to the question Keke has raised.

"My family is rich, yes, that's for sure, but it doesn't really concern me. I can't just move a large amount of money without my elders' permission. However, I do have about four million gold soul coins on me."

As Zhongli Wu's disciple, Qi Li was naturally not short of money.

He could even use his status as a disciple of Zhongli Wu to move funds within the Holy Spirit Cult. As long as he didn't arbitrarily move more than ten million gold soul coins, it wouldn't be a big problem.

However, it's unnecessary to mobilize too much capital, and it's meaningless to mobilize too little.

Therefore, he simply used part of the funds from the Starlight City Treasure Hunt and the proceeds from the auction of his Dragon Transformation Pills as his private slush fund.

And this was only one-fifth of his true net worth.

Even so, the shock he brought to an ordinary soul master like Keke was still quite enormous.

"Huh?! Four million gold soul coins?! If you had that kind of money, you could just go and find a ring master who graduated from the Sun Moon Empire's Royal Soul Master Academy to tutor you. You should know that even a level seven soul tool normally sells for no more than two million gold soul coins, unless it's a fixed soul tool that's expensive to make and has great strategic significance. Otherwise, four million gold soul coins would be enough to buy some lower-value level eight soul tools!"

They're all rich, honestly. I'm getting angrier the more I talk about it. Come with me, I'll give you a test, then help you get an ID card, and I'll take you to the cafeteria to get a meal card, and then I'll take you to your dorm.

Orange, this rich kid has broken my heart! You're buying me lunch, right? I'm going to eat shrimp and eel until I'm sick of it!

Orange rolled the whites of her eyes.

"Whoever broke your heart, why don't you just have them treat you to lunch? You want to eat shrimp and eel until you're sick of it, but if you go late, you won't get any! You should just have an orange."

Without making any other move, Ju Zi flashed a light in her hand and immediately took out an orange and stuffed it into Ke Ke's mouth. Then she quickly ran to another laboratory partition and pushed out a piece of equipment.

"Ptooey, ptooey, ptooey! This orange is so astringent! I'm not finished with you!"

Keke was about to pounce on Ju Zi and start a full-blown fight with her.

Orange simply hid behind the instrument and pressed a button on it.

Keke immediately dodged, and then watched helplessly as the instrument shot out a beam of light that hit Qi Li directly.
