Tang Wulin reminded, "Wu Siduo, you can't speak so carelessly, it would be troublesome if someone overheard us!"
Gu Yue also nodded, "Yes, this place must be specifically designated for receiving outsiders. We probably haven't really reached the Tang Sect's headquarters!"
As they were pondering this, a Tang Sect disciple in charge of conducting trades asked, "Are you here to make a trade?"
It was unexpected that children would visit today, but as long as they were here to trade, there was no reason for Tang Sect to refuse!
Tang Wulin denied, "No, we are students of Shrek Academy. We came here with the wish to visit Tang Sect's headquarters, is that possible?"
The Tang Sect disciple paused, then explained softly, "Non-Tang Sect disciples can only move around the grand hall and the surrounding activity area. To enter the inner parts of the Tang Sect, one must be a Tang Sect disciple!"
The interior of the Tang Sect has always been off-limits to outsiders, even if they are from Shrek Academy!
Xie Xie frowned, "Teacher Wu didn't mention this to us. I didn't expect that we wouldn't even be allowed to have a look."
Xu Xiaoyan sighed, "Eh, we came here all excited, only to be disappointed!"
Ye Xinglan's eyes suddenly lit up, "I remember that Wulin also joined the Tang Sect, and that doesn't affect his status as a student of Shrek Academy. Why don't we all consider joining Tang Sect as well?"
Gu Yue stroked her chin thoughtfully, "This... might actually work. Having the identity of a Tang Sect disciple wouldn't be bad for us either!"
Perhaps, this was Teacher Wu's intention all along, to have them all join the Tang Sect!
Hearing their discussion, the Tang Sect disciple expressed surprise, "Ah, so you want to join the Tang Sect?"
Just to visit the inside of Tang Sect, and they already wish to join, this was certainly the first time he encountered such a peculiar situation!
After exchanging glances with the others and obtaining consent, Tang Wulin stated seriously, "Yes, could you tell us how we can join the Tang Sect?"
The Tang Sect disciple explained, "To join the Tang Sect, first, your soul power rank must meet the minimum requirement of a Soul Elder, and you must also pass the soul tool and forging assessments"
In simple terms, ninety percent of the students who could enter Shrek Academy would be able to pass Tang Sect's assessments!
After a pause, he added, "However... there are no small number of Soul Masters wishing to join Tang Sect, so you would need to wait in line!"
Upon hearing that, Tang Wulin thought to himself, "We need to queue? We don't have that much time!"
With a bit of hopeful luck, he took out his Tang Sect Token and asked, "What if there is a recommendation from a Tang Sect disciple?"
Seeing the token in Tang Wulin's hand, the disciple's cheeks showed surprise, somewhat unexpected that the former was actually a Tang Sect disciple...
Then, with a smile, he said, "If you have a recommendation from a Tang Sect disciple, we can arrange for a prioritized assessment. Please follow me!"
Tang Wulin breathed a sigh of relief and gave his companions a thumbs-up...
It seemed that his guess was right, and he also saved a lot of time for everyone!
Thereafter, they followed the Tang Sect disciple to the assessment area...
Upon reaching another middle-aged man responsible for the assessment, he respectfully said, "Elder, apart from the boy with azure eyes, the rest are here for the sect joining assessment!"
When the Elder heard this, he glanced sideways at Tang Wulin and the others, spotted their attire and the badges on their chests, and exclaimed with surprise, "Oh? They are all students from Shrek Academy!"
The Tang Sect of the Soul Land had been destroyed by the Twelfth-Grade Soul Guidance Shell released by the Holy Spirit Cult, and this had a significant impact on Tang Sect's headquarters in Xingluo Land as well!
Unexpectedly, there would be students from Shrek Academy who came all the way to Xingluo Land specifically to participate in the Tang Sect's entrance exam!
After receiving an answer, the Tang Sect disciple clasped his hands in a salute, "Then Elder, I shall take my leave!"
The Tang Sect Elder nodded slightly, "Mhm!"
Once he left, the Elder walked over to Tang Wulin and the others with his hands behind his back...
He spoke sternly, "Since you wish to undergo the assessment, you should be aware that the minimum standard is to reach the Soul Elder level, right?"
Everyone nodded to show their understanding...
The Tang Sect Elder then pointed to a soul tool nearby and said, "Well then, test your soul power rank with this machine first! Then, you can proceed with the following assessments!"
Xie Xie patted his chest, "Then I'll go first!"
Having said that, he walked into the massive soul guidance machine without changing his expression...
He took a deep breath, gathered all his Soul Power, faintly feeling a portion being devoured by the soul guidance machine...
A few seconds later, the soul guidance machine flashed a yellow light, "Xie Xie, Soul Ancestor Level 44!"
The Tangmen Elder's eyes widened in shock, exclaiming, "At this age, he has already reached the rank of Soul Elder?"
Xie Xie moved his body a bit and walked out of the soul guidance machine...
Full of curiosity, Xu Xiaoyan asked, "Xie Xie, how does it feel?"
Xie Xie casually said, "It feels pretty good, but everyone, remember to release less Soul Power. This soul guidance machine has drained about a quarter of my Soul Power!"
After he spoke, the others took turns with their soul power rank testing!
"Ye Xinglan, Soul Power Rank Level 46!"
"Gu Yue, Soul Power Rank Level 45!"
"Xu Lizhi, Soul Power Rank Level 44!"
This scene made the well-prepared Tangmen Elder no longer find it strange...
But when it was Wu Siduo's turn to be tested, the Tangmen Elder's mouth hung open...
"Wu Siduo, Soul King Level 56!"
His cheeks wore an incredulous expression, "Soul...Soul King? How is this possible?"
What kind of cultivation method did this girl follow? She actually reached Level 56 Soul King!
Even his own soul power rank was merely that of a Soul Sage!
Then, with a wry smile, he said, "They truly are... little monsters!"
Even if Shrek Academy had suffered a tremendous setback, it still possessed students with terrifying talents!
Wu Siduo said indifferently, "Thank you for the compliment. But Elder, can we proceed with the next part of the assessment now?"
The Elder gave a slight cough, "Cough cough... Of course we can, but I need to remind you that the next part of the assessment is the most important. If you don't pass, you will not be able to join the Tang Sect regardless of your high soul power rank!"
After his words, the faces of Tang Wulin and the others turned serious...
...
However, after about three to four hours, the Tangmen Elder looked at Gu Yue and her team with a complex expression, all having passed the assessment!
He handed over the Tang Sect Tokens containing their information, "From now on, you are disciples of the Tang Sect. These are your tokens! Be sure to keep them safe!"
Internally he thought, "What kind of monsters are these kids?"
Especially that Tang Wulin and Gu Yue, with their help, the whole group actually forged One-Word Battle Armor!!
Is this really something people of their age could accomplish?
That's Battle Armor we're talking about, which is hundreds of times more difficult than the soul tools they were required to forge!!
