Chapter 169 Soul Master ≠ Noble
"Hahaha!"
Seeing that the situation was not good, Captain No. 6 did not wait for Zhou Qing and the others to take any action. He laughed loudly three times and said in a loud voice, "He is indeed a young talent with a bright future!"
"I am deeply moved by your indomitable spirit, so -"
"I will give you the chance to advance to the third round!"
"I'm leaving! I won't fight anymore!"
Then, with Zhou Qing and others staring in amazement, the audience booing, and the Star Luo Royal Team staring in bewilderment, Captain No. 6 leaped seven or eight times, squeezed through the crowd, and disappeared.
"He doesn't even care about his teammates?"
Tang San reacted and looked at the six members of Team 6 lying on the square, speechless.
"How irresponsible!" Xiao Wu cursed.
"Don't expect help from this temporary team." Zhou Qing shook his head slightly, called Tang San and Wang Sheng to move the six members down together, and asked a teacher with healing abilities in Notting College for help.
Soul Master Colleges, even those for primary level soul masters, must be equipped with a healing soul master so that they can provide simple treatment when teachers and students encounter accidents.
An academy without healing spirit masters cannot be recognized by both the Tiandou Empire (Xingluo Empire) and the Spirit Hall, and cannot enjoy any official welfare funding.
After these six people received simple treatment, they thanked Mo Hen, Zhou Qing and others, and cursed Captain No. 6 for being irresponsible.
"It's nothing. We were a little too heavy-handed. I feel a little sorry about it." Zhou Qing scratched his head and said to the soul master he killed instantly.
"In the world of spirit masters, there is no such thing as heavy or heavy hands?" The man laughed heartily. "Of course, for geniuses like you, you will definitely be able to enter an intermediate academy in the future, and even have the hope of being admitted to a senior academy as an exception. In that case, you don't have to go through the same mediocrity as us civilian spirit masters."
Junior college, intermediate college, senior college.
Currently in Douluo Continent, most soul masters of civilian origin can only join intermediate colleges even if they successfully graduate from junior colleges.
Senior college?
Don’t even think about it!
Without a certain identity and background, civilian soul masters need to work very hard just to obtain cultivation materials, which is not as convenient as those children from aristocratic families.
Once you successfully graduate from an advanced academy, with the status of a graduate from an advanced academy, whether you become a free spirit master or join the nobility and become a guest of honor in the future, you will be much more free than a civilian spirit master.
Therefore, in this person's opinion, with the talents of Zhou Qing, Tang San, and Xiao Wu, they may be able to enter advanced academies run by those with backgrounds and power in the future, and may even be able to show their talents in the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Competition.
You know, students who are able to participate in the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Competition, even if they can't even pass the preliminaries, are the most talented students in the advanced academy.
Anyone who is capable of playing will be sought after and praised by the dignitaries in the city where the Advanced Soul Master Academy is located. After graduation, he can also become a "star"-like figure in that city.
"Senior Academy? I heard they don't accept civilians?"
Zhou Qing asked about this.
In the original novel, there is only one high-level academy in Tiandou City that recruits civilian soul masters: Lan Ba Academy, which is out of tune with the other academies.
Based on the fact that the profit pie on Douluo Continent has been divided up, the senior colleges in other big cities probably recruit mainly people from nobles, sects, and families. "They also recruit people with impeccable talents."
The man thought for a while and said quietly, "Otherwise it would be very difficult to enter a senior academy... I once saw a civilian soul master in a city who reached the level of a great soul master at the age of twelve and whose two soul rings were both 100 years old. He didn't even get into the door of a senior academy."
"Twelve years old, a great soul master, and all of them have hundred-year soul rings, but he can't enter the advanced academy?" Wang Sheng's jaw almost dropped to the ground. He couldn't imagine that such a person was not considered a genius in the advanced soul master academy! ?
"No, this kind of talent is actually very good. His innate spirit power is at least around level six or seven." Zhou Qing shook his head. "Even if they are disciples of a large sect, I'm afraid not everyone's innate spirit power can match that of a civilian spirit master like this."
In the original novel, there were also quite a few twelve-year-old civilian great soul masters whose two rings were at the hundred-year level. They traveled thousands of miles to Shrek in Soto City to sign up.
It is impossible for the regular high-level colleges in their nearby cities to ignore such talent, but why did they go to Shrek Academy, which is unknown and only "famous" in Soto City?
Perhaps it is because of their civilian status that they are unable to enter a senior academy, so they want to try their luck at Shrek Academy, which is rumored to recruit civilian soul masters.
Unfortunately, Shrek Academy is an elite academy. Although it recruits civilian soul masters, the requirements for civilian soul masters are higher, so that most of them cannot pass the assessment...
"Yes."
The man sighed, "But because he was born a commoner, no one appreciated him, he had no background, no power, so he didn't even have the qualifications to enter the Advanced Soul Master Academy."
"There are many good horses, but there are few good horse trainers."
Tang San sighed and told the stories of his previous life, but influenced by Zhou Qing's thoughts, he also had a more thorough understanding of the situation on the mainland. This was not an uncommon problem for Bole, but the distribution of interests, which had generally been completed and controlled by the empire, sects, families, nobles, Spirit Hall, etc. The corresponding resources must be given to their own family members first, then those who are close to them and have interests in them, and then to "others" who have no blood ties or interests in them.
To be honest, if Tang San himself were to take over the roles of those high-level executives, he would not share the benefits with others.
but now.
He is in the position of "others".
And Zhou Qing knew one more thing.
That is the channel for civilian soul masters to rise. It still exists, but it is slim.
But it is this slim chance that makes ordinary soul masters have hope and are willing to believe that they are talented but not appreciated, and that one day they will be able to meet their own "mentor".
But they never met it in their lifetime, and then left this expectation to the next generation, and so on and so forth... In this way, they have been ruled by the top leaders, and a lock has been added to their minds, making it impossible for them to ever jump out of this framework.
"However, in Tiandou City, there is a high-level academy that recruits outstanding civilian soul masters. The conditions are relatively loose, and you only need to reach the level of a great soul master. But in a place like Tiandou City where every inch of land is worth a lot of money, civilian soul masters from most cities cannot go there. In fact, most of the civilians there are children of small families and small sects, and they don't have real noble titles."
This person sighed again. After all, in his opinion, the children of those small families had natural advantages in martial arts spirits, which were much better than those of them, the pure commoners. As long as they did not make mistakes in the future, they would surely be able to obtain wealth and glory that these commoner spirit masters would never be able to enjoy in their lifetime.
Zhou Qing was not surprised by this. After all, in the original novel, the Lan Ba Academy, which only recruited children of commoners, also had a disciple of the Power Clan: Tailong.
Without an official position or title conferred by the Tiandou government, even if one is born in a large sect, he is not a noble.
Just like the martial arts world in Tang San's previous life, there were various martial arts sects, independent of the imperial court, but not completely parallel to it...
There is a misunderstanding about the noble status in Douluo Continent. In fact, soul masters are not the same as nobles.
In the two imperial systems, there are two types of classes:
Class: Commoners-nobles, mainly based on the political system
Status class: Ordinary people - Soul Master, mainly based on the extraordinary power system
But the two are not absolutely parallel lines, but they are not completely entangled either.
Therefore, as long as Tyrone of Lan Ba Academy does not have a formal title and the Li clan is not awarded a title by Emperor Xue Ye, his identity cannot be considered a noble.
