"No, it's just because..."
"Don't you like owing people things? But that's fine too. Once you become a Soul Master, you'll receive a substantial living allowance from the Spirit Hall every month! And you can keep receiving this money until you become a Soul Venerable."
"Although this policy has fostered many low-level Soul Masters who are like thugs and hooligans, at least they have the most basic living security, so their oppression of ordinary people will be less. Can it be considered a good policy?"
Tang San's eyes lit up slightly at her words. Only after confirming that Lin Xi didn't intend to say anything more did he speak, explaining the reason while asking her a question.
“I’m not really comfortable owing people anything. Of course, there’s also the fact that this identity was given to me by Grandpa Jack, and I don’t want to disappoint him.”
"However, Miss Lin Xi, the living allowance you mentioned... With so many Soul Masters across the entire continent! Does the Spirit Hall have that much money?"
After pondering for a while, Lin Xi, who had already exchanged names with her along the way, spoke with some uncertainty after thinking for a moment.
"I don't really know the ins and outs of it, but based on what I understand, let me tell you this!"
"First of all, the Spirit Hall naturally doesn't have that much money, but the two great empires do. With the Spirit Hall's support, they can cover this part of the expenses."
"Of course, this money is a piece of cake that can shake the upper echelons of the two great empires. Only the Spirit Hall, the number one power on the continent, has the power and means to force the two great empires to act in this way."
"As for why they would do this? Let me put it this way: everyone knows that the bulk of this money comes from the two great empires, but without the Spirit Hall, how could the two great empires be willing to pay this amount?"
"Moreover, the place where we receive our monthly living allowance is a branch of the Spirit Hall in each city. As time goes by, the image of the Spirit Hall will become deeply ingrained in the hearts of every ordinary civilian and low-level spirit master."
"Although they did indeed harm the interests of top nobles and top soul masters, it must be said that the Spirit Hall did do a lot of good for the common people and low-level soul masters. However, in recent years, the nature of the Spirit Hall has indeed changed. At the very least, the level of assistance to common people is less than before, and more of it is focused on us low-level soul masters."
Having spent many years with Lin Hao, Lin Xi has also focused more on the common people at the bottom of society. Although Lin Hao is positioned as an absolutely rational egoist and is proud of being a transmigrator and a strong person, he disdains to let him rob the last few copper soul coins from the pockets of these common people.
On the contrary, directly robbing those so-called strong people and looting their corpses would be more in line with his mentality. Over time, although Lin Xi didn't have so many strange fetishes, her tolerance for the upper class also decreased to a certain extent because of her relationship with her brother!
On the contrary, it elevated the status of the weak.
However, these things were beyond Tang San's comprehension, as he was an assassin who had received virtually no formal education.
On the contrary, he expressed his admiration for the Spirit Hall, a power that could directly suppress the entire continent, and he also showed some approval of the Spirit Hall regarding the living allowances for spirit masters.
That's right. Even though the Spirit Hall traveled thousands of miles to awaken the spirits of eligible children, he didn't experience much emotional fluctuation.
Perhaps this is what everyone tells him in his life: that the Spirit Hall will come to awaken his spirit after he turns six!
When the charity of the strong becomes an obligation, the lower classes will no longer feel any gratitude for it, unless they are made to feel the injustice of fate and the suffering of the world again.
(Nagato, who had already mastered ninjutsu and ran back to Konoha to carry rice, but was crushed by Lin Nian's rice, has something to say.)
Their casual conversation ended after they found Dormitory Seven, and when they opened the door, a pink-furred rabbit suddenly appeared.
Seeing the attack that was almost a killing move, Tang San, who was being directly attacked, became serious. Just as he was about to use Ghost Shadow Step to dodge, he heard a thunderclap and the girl's cry of pain.
Following the sound, they saw Lin Xi, whose face suddenly turned cold, holding a blue vine in her hand. At that moment, the girl in pink's kick was already entangled by the vine, and countless arcs of electricity were transmitted through the vine into the girl's body, causing her to scream in agony.
"This is a one-time thing. If there's a next time, your family can't control you, but I will!"
After saying that, Lin Xi coldly withdrew her martial spirit and walked directly into Dormitory Seven.
Looking at this group of students who were generally thin and whose clothes were generally old, Lin Xi, who had carefully studied the formation of the postgraduate system and its current scale before coming, asked directly.
Who was the former leader of this dormitory?
The sheer power of taking down Xiao Wu with a single move caused many of the work-study students to instinctively shrink back. However, as the leader recognized by all the work-study students at Notting Academy, Wang Sheng swallowed hard and stepped out from the crowd.
"You're in good shape. Judging from your appearance, you must be a sixth-year student. I know about the conflict between work-study students and regular students. I will handle this matter. However, if you want to find a strong person to lead you in the future, you'd better observe their character. Otherwise, instead of adding to your success, they might even kick you when you're down."
"From now on, I'm the dorm leader here. Everyone, please tidy up. Lunch is on me this time."
After saying that, he found an empty bed in the dormitory, took out a quilt from his storage soul tool, and started making the bed.
At this moment, Xiao Wu finally recovered from the electric shock and was helped into the dormitory by Tang San, who for some reason seemed to have a high opinion of her.
