"Is this the Spirit Pagoda?" After making some preparations, Shi Yu arrived at the Spirit Pagoda relatively easily by taking a taxi.
Looking at the tower-shaped building that is four or five hundred meters high in front of me, I was still somewhat awestruck.
The base is octagonal and may cover an area of over 10,000 square meters. It narrows inward every ten floors until it reaches the spire at the top.
Its exterior is grand and exquisite; from an architectural aesthetic point of view, its design is impeccable.
This was the most beautiful tower-like building Shi Yu had ever seen; looking up at it from the ground gave him a strange sense of oppression.
"This shouldn't be a figment of my imagination; there really is danger," Shi Yu thought to himself.
This was his first time visiting the Spirit Pagoda, but he did know a little about it.
Knowing that the Spirit Pagoda can be viewed as a massive soul tool, possessing both offensive and defensive capabilities, it is not simply a building.
If anyone tries to attack the Spirit Pagoda, they will likely face a dazzling array of attacks.
Shi Yu took a deep breath and stepped into the Spirit Transfer Tower.
"May I ask what brings you to the Spirit Pagoda?" As soon as you enter, a staff member steps forward to ask.
She wasn't a Soul Master, and Shi Yu didn't sense any Soul Power fluctuations from her.
"I would like to inquire about how to obtain the qualification for the Ascension Platform," Shi Yu stated his purpose.
The female staff member looked Shi Yu up and down. Shi Yu was wearing clothes from this era, having long since changed out of his original school uniform.
He certainly couldn't wear Shrek Academy's uniform when he came to the Spirit Pagoda, considering that the relationship between the Spirit Pagoda and Shrek Academy was already quite tense at this point in time.
It would definitely not be a good thing for the people at the Spirit Pagoda to know that I am from Shrek Academy.
I'm not saying they'll do anything to you, but you'll most likely make a wasted trip.
"Please come over here and fill out some basic information," the female staff member said with a smile after looking him over.
Shi Yu spent over ten thousand yuan on this outfit just to make herself look more expensive.
Shi Yu followed and picked up a form. After glancing at it briefly, he noticed that the form required him to fill in mostly information about his family background, probably to determine if he was qualified to enter the Spirit Ascension Platform.
Shi Yu sat down and began filling out the form, using his real name as he wrote it; there was no need to hide it.
Furthermore, he didn't hide his martial soul; his spatial ability was the only thing he made up.
When you're out in the world, your identity is something you give yourself. Right now, he's given the identity of the only son of a reclusive family.
Both his parents were titled powerhouses, three-word battle armor masters, who, weary of conflict, chose to live in seclusion.
He grew up in a secluded place with his parents and had little contact with outsiders.
Now that his parents have allowed him to go out and gain experience, he is very curious about the magical Spirit Ascension Platform and wants to go inside to take a look and improve himself through it.
"Your parents are both titled powerhouses. I wonder what their titles are..." The female staff member looked at Shi Yu with newfound respect. This man was not only wealthy, but also had such a powerful family background.
She immediately began to value Shi Yu, considering him one of their most important clients.
It's not about how much money you can make from Shi Yu; building good relationships with them, and even bringing them to the Spirit Pagoda, is far more valuable than simply making money.
The Spirit Pagoda has grown to its current scale partly due to its monopolization of souls, generating enormous wealth daily.
More importantly, it is about winning over and befriending all the Soul Masters in the world, which is the foundation for any force to grow and expand.
"It's not convenient to tell you. My parents are quite low-key and specifically told me not to mention their titles in public. I hope you understand," Shi Yu said, feigning reluctance.
"Oh, I see. I understand, I understand," the female staff member said without pressing the matter further.
"Your qualifications are fairly consistent with the requirements for obtaining eligibility from our Spirit Transmission Tower's Ascension Platform."
"However, I'm just a front desk staff member; I don't have the authority to decide whether you're qualified to enter the Ascension Platform."
"I need to take you to see your supervisor so he can decide on this matter," the female staff member said politely.
"Okay," Shi Yu said, following the female staff member into the elevator to the sixty-sixth floor.
This floor is relatively quiet, with offices on both sides of the corridor.
A female staff member knocked on the door.
Shi Yu saw the words written on the door: Spirit Ascension Platform Review Office.
"Come in," the person inside said. Judging from the voice, it was a middle-aged man with a deep and powerful voice, giving Shi Yu's first impression that this person was quite capable.
Upon entering, the nearly 100-square-meter office has only two workstations, one by the door and the other by the window.
At that moment, the workstation by the window was empty, but there was a middle-aged man sitting at the workstation by the door, looking at some documents.
He only looked up when the female staff member spoke respectfully.
Their gazes were mainly fixed on Shi Yu.
Shi Yu smiled and nodded politely to the middle-aged man, without speaking first.
"Vice Tower Master Li, this young man named Shi Yu wishes to apply for entry into the Spirit Ascension Platform. This is the information he filled out; please take a look." The female staff member handed the information form filled out by Shi Yu to the middle-aged man.
This person is the person in charge of the Ascension Platform and one of the three deputy tower masters of the East Sea Spirit Transmission Tower.
Deputy Tower Master Li took the information sheet and focused on the martial spirit, soul power, and family background.
"A spatial martial soul?" Vice Tower Master Li looked up at Shi Yu with slight surprise.
"Mm," Shi Yu nodded.
"Pure space?" Deputy Tower Master Li inquired in detail.
"Yes," Shi Yu nodded again.
Deputy Tower Master Li re-examined Shi Yu and said, "Release your Martial Soul and let me see it."
"Okay," Shi Yu released his spatial martial soul, and a spatial vortex appeared behind him, but no spirit rings appeared under his feet.
Deputy Tower Master Li focused intently on sensing the energy fluctuations of the spatial vortex, his surprise growing ever stronger.
"Such pure spatial energy," Li, the deputy tower master, thought to himself, keenly judging that this martial soul was no ordinary thing.
There's a concept of "ultimate" attributes, but what's commonly referred to are ultimate fire, ultimate ice, and ultimate metal, because these ultimate attributes are relatively easy to obtain.
Relatively speaking, the most extreme fires have never appeared in more than five people throughout history.
There is no such thing as an ultimate attribute like space, because there has never been an ultimate, pure space martial soul.
But at this moment, Yu's martial spirit gave him an extreme feeling, which is why he felt that Yu's martial spirit was not simple.
"Why didn't any spirit rings appear after you released your martial spirit?" Vice Tower Master Li noticed the anomaly.
"I don't know either. I've already acquired two spirit rings, but they both mysteriously disappeared after I got them."
"My parents checked me out, but they couldn't explain this strange phenomenon either."
"Fortunately, this hasn't had any negative impact on me," Shi Yu explained.
I knew I would lose my spirit ring after transmigrating; it happened the first time, and it happened the second time too.
I had already thought about how to explain it, and rather than making something up, I decided to attribute it to an unknown cause.
There are many strange things in this world, so one more is not unusual.
"I can't believe this is happening!" Even Vice Tower Master Li had never seen anything like it before.
"If you don't have spirit rings, won't you be at a great disadvantage in battle? After all, without spirit rings, it's equivalent to not having any spirit skills to use."
Vice Tower Master Li frowned slightly and said, "If that's the case, then it would be a waste of this martial soul talent."
"Yes, there are some losses, but every loss has its gains. Although I don't have any soul skills to use, my control over space far surpasses that of other soul masters of the same level, which gives me considerable combat power even without soul rings."
Shi Yu said that he naturally did not want the other party to look down on him, as this would reduce his chances of qualifying for the Ascension Platform.
"Really? Would you mind showing it to me?" Deputy Tower Master Li asked with great interest.
Shi Yu hesitated for a moment before agreeing, and then disappeared from the spot, reappearing by the window.
This startled the female staff member, and even Deputy Tower Master Li's gaze narrowed slightly.
He was a powerful Contra Master, but he hadn't reacted to Shi Yu's teleportation.
Normally, teleportation skills wouldn't be this sudden; there would be a pre-cast animation, or an energy fluctuation.
There wasn't a single energy fluctuation just now; he just moved there so suddenly that anyone who didn't know better would think he had been standing by the window the whole time.
Just as Vice Tower Master Li was about to say something, Shi Yu disappeared again and reappeared in another place. Then he kept teleporting until he suddenly appeared behind Vice Tower Master Li and patted him on the shoulder.
Deputy Tower Master Li stood up in shock; the instant he was patted on the shoulder, he had instinctively wanted to retaliate.
Fortunately, he held back; otherwise, Shi Yu would probably be in a terrible state right now.
"Vice Tower Master, I apologize," Shi Yu said, the sudden energy fluctuation startling him.
"It's nothing," Vice Tower Master Li waved his hand, his gaze towards Shi Yu changing again.
I hope you can add it to your favorites and vote for it. Your support is my greatest motivation, and I am very grateful.
