Chapter 25 Arrival at the Notting City Martial Soul Branch Hall
Because the old man was old and the journey to Nottingham was long, Ling Xiao borrowed an oxcart from Uncle Zhang in the same village before leaving. When Uncle Zhang heard that the oxcart was for Ling Xiao, the old man, and Su Yuntao, he immediately became very enthusiastic and offered to drive them to Nottingham and then bring the oxcart back.
Su Yuntao didn't want to take advantage of the villagers for nothing, so he gave Zhang Shu the only silver soul coin he had left. Zhang Shu tried to stop him, saying that he did it voluntarily and just wanted to make a good relationship with them. If he asked for money now, it would make him seem greedy.
However, Ling Xiao didn't want Uncle Zhang to make a wasted trip, so he gave half of the dry rations he had prepared to Uncle Zhang, but Uncle Zhang declined again.
Ling Xiao could only say, "If you refuse again, Uncle Zhang, we won't let you deliver it. We'll go to another place and have Uncle Jim deliver it."
Hearing Ling Xiao's words, Uncle Zhang could see their firm attitude, so he agreed and did not refuse. He then carefully took the meat that Ling Xiao had given him home, and then returned it, preparing to continue to send Ling Xiao and the others to Nottingham City.
Time passed slowly, and Ling Xiao and his group arrived at the gates of Nottingham City. Since oxcarts were not allowed to enter the city and Uncle Zhang wanted to go back to take care of his family, after dropping Ling Xiao and his group off at the city gate, Uncle Zhang drove the oxcart back the way he came.
After seeing Uncle Zhang off, Ling Xiao focused his attention on the city wall, since it was the first time he had ever seen a city wall with an ancient feel.
Not long after, they arrived at the Spirit Hall branch in Notting City. Although the Spirit Hall branch was very inconspicuous within the Spirit Hall, it was considered quite luxurious among the buildings Ling Xiao had seen in the small city of Notting City.
Because the guards of the Martial Soul Branch Hall all recognized Su Yuntao, they did not stop them. Thus, the group arrived smoothly at the Hall Master's office. After hearing the Hall Master say "Please come in," Su Yuntao went in first, while the old man and Ling Xiao waited outside.
"What do you want with me?" Hall Master Xipu asked, knowing that under normal circumstances, a deacon of the Spirit Hall like Su Yuntao would not come directly to him.
"Lord Palace Master, it's great news! I've awakened a genius!" Su Yuntao said excitedly.
"How talented? It can't be someone with innate full soul power, can it? You know, I've been with the Spirit Hall for so long, and I've never seen a genius with innate full soul power!" Hall Master Xipu said nonchalantly. In fact, in his opinion, it was already quite good that Su Yuntao could awaken a Soul Master with innate level seven soul power.
"Lord of the Palace, you possess innate full soul power!"
"What did you say? Are you sure you have innate full soul power? Do you know what will happen if you dare to deceive me!" Xipu asked incredulously.
"Lord of the Palace, it is indeed a case of innate full soul power. If you don't believe me, you can check it yourself, but..."
Afterwards, Su Yuntao told Xipu about Ling Xiao's request. As for Ling Xiao's request to bring his grandfather along, there was no problem at all. As long as Ling Xiao was truly a genius with innate full soul power, it would be fine even if he had to worship his grandfather.
"Why don't you hurry up and invite them in!" Palace Master Xipu said to Su Yuntao, but his tone carried a hint of reproach. Su Yuntao didn't take Xipu's change in attitude to heart at all. After receiving the order, he immediately went out and brought Ling Xiao and the old man in.
When Ling Xiao entered, he saw Xi Pu, the smiling head of the Martial Soul Branch Hall. Xi Pu, knowing the answer already, asked, "Are you the genius Ling Xiao with innate full soul power that Su Yuntao mentioned?"
