Chapter 1976
“You don’t have to speak to me like that; I have a reason for saying what I said. Martial art techniques or martial skills with the soul attribute can be considered one of the more difficult to practice. I wouldn’t have any questions if you’ve practiced martial art techniques or martial skills of the five elements attributes. Think of this as me persuading you. Even the masters in the sect don’t simply train for the martial art techniques or martial skills with the soul attribute, let alone those like you, a newly recruited informal disciple.”

Noel did not exaggerate in his words. Among all the martial art techniques and martial skills, those that belonged to the five elements were the easiest to be practiced.

Even though the power unleashed after they achieved the level of completion was not as strong as the martial art techniques and martial skills of other attributes, it was easy to practice those, and the possibility of success was also much higher.

Noel rubbed his slightly red eyes and leaned back in his chair, unhurriedly continuing, “Throughout the years, those who were able to achieve the level of completion when practicing the martial art techniques or martial skills with the soul attribute are those extremely talented formal disciples. Even the chosen disciples wouldn’t simply try this unless your soul is very special, or you’re just extremely talented. I don’t think you’re any of those, though. Why else did you not join the proper informal disciple assessment and join the sect in such a way?”

For disciples like Noel, assessment for the informal disciples previously could not be considered as a usual way of assessing disciples. They could only describe this as an unusual way to do things at an unusual time.

jackieie did not want to continue an entanglement on this issue with Noel, thus he calmly interjected, “I just chanced upon this opportunity. You don’t have to teach me these things, Senior brother Noel. I came to the Soul Hall to increase my speed in training the martial skill, and I’ve already made up my mind. These words won’t affect my decision.”

Noel raised his eyebrows and chuckled in contempt. He was not that involved with jackieie; he just wanted to remind him out of goodwill. He would not waste time talking to jackieie, then, since jackieie was not appreciative.

He raised his chin toward jackieie. “As per our usual rules, training for a day costs you ten sect contribution points. It doesn’t matter how long you stay inside throughout the day-it’ll still be counted as one day.”

Ten contribution points each day?! This meant that the reward jackieie obtained could only pay for five days in the hall!

jackieie could not help but secretly exclaim at the thought.

This was quite expensive, more so than what he imagined it to be. He initially thought that the 50 sect contribution points he had were enough to support him to train for one month, but it seemed like wishful thinking at this point.

Noel seemed to have realized the slight surprise on jackieie’s face. With a cold smile, he commented, “Ten sect contribution points a day isn’t expensive. You need to think about it: The Soul Hall requires the support of power while you’re training, and this uses up a lot of spirited crystals. As payment for the power consumption, you only need to pay ten contribution points a day. Even I feel that this is quite a small amount that we need to pay.”

Before he arrived, jackieie had already heard that the Soul Hall was actually a large formation, and its function was to raise the speed of somebody practicing the martial art technique or martial skill that belonged to the soul attribute. Since it was a large formation, it required power to run itself, and this meant that a lot of spirited crystals were required. Considering this, ten contribution points a day could not be considered a huge amount.

Noel looked up and continued speaking, “I need to inform you something beforehand. I don’t care if you stay inside for as long as a joystick burns or as long a s somebody drinks a cup of tea, but you have to pay me ten contribution points. Although ten contribution points isn’t a large amount, it’s great fortune enough for newly recruited informal disciples like yourself. Let me give you another piece of warning: People that are untalented like yourself shouldn’t waste time on martial art technique or martial skill with the soul attribute. The soul is something illusory and hard to understand.”

Chapter 1977
“Stop thinking that you’re stronger than any other person. Many had the same train of thoughts like you do, but they were examples to those who came after them that this is wishful thinking.” Noel was not reminding jackieie; he was taunting jackieie for overestimating himself. Just like what he said, there were so many disciples in the sect, but only a very small number of people practiced the martial art techniques and martial skills of the soul attribute.

After all, the soul was an illusory thing, and it was untouchable like the five elements. Numerous seniors had trained the gold, wood, water, fire, and earth elements, and they could be used as references.

jackieie merely gave a small nod wordlessly, to which Noel chuckled without a care and continued, “Since you insist on going in and wasting those ten contribution points, there’s nothing else I can say.”

Noel did not believe that jackieie would be capable of hastening his mastery over his martial art techniques or martial skills after he entered the hall. To Noel, that was impossible. It might be possible if jackieie had broken through into the intermediate stage of innate level, but judging jackieie’s fighting prowess, he knew jackieie had just achieved the initial stage of the innate level. He did not have the strength to have a soul enlightenment.

“I won’t waste my time talking nonsense with you. Pick a difficulty level-there are seven of them. The easiest one is level one, and difficulty level seven is exceptional. In fact, I don’t even have to ask you this. The most you can do is stay in difficulty level one, probably lasting as long as somebody finishing their tea or a joystick burning.” He lazily stood up from his chair and picked up the formation of jade strips in front of him, adding a couple of runes that jackieie did not understand on the jade strips.
