Approaching the front desk, Cain took notice of the beautiful woman sitting behind it. Compared to the other World Spirit Masters, she truly held a unique style.
The difference mainly was that this beautiful woman wasn't emitting a holy air of pure superiority. At least she was expertly hiding it.
The receptionist woman had a simple soft, friendly smile graciously curling her lips.
It honestly reminded Cain of good customer service in his previous world. No matter the people she'll deal with, it will all be done with a pleasant smile.
Even as cultivators have more developed mental states, most people would still feel generally open to a sunshine smile than arrogant indifference.
It was slightly surprising to see. But then again, Cain also found it to make sense.
Business is always booming around here, and without at least one kind face, not many would be that willing to come around here.
As Cain was temporarily lost in his thoughts, the receptionist lady peered up to him, showcasing an even wider pleasant smile. Her sweet voice leaked out as she said,
"Welcome, dear customers. Is there something special you need?"
Unknown to Cain, the receptionist lady is actually showcasing a more positive attitude to him than usual.
Like her fellow World Spirit Masters, she naturally perceived the potent Spirit Aura emitting off from them. Any new World Spirit Masters would always be worthy of attention. No matter their cultivators' background.
"Ah, well I suppose we are here for special services. You see, me and my sister wish to become World Spirit Masters. We already awoken our Spirit Core since we can…."
As Cain began trailing off, he and Kali simultaneously opened their palms. A faint green light rapidly shimmered upon it, and within moments, a fully formed ball of Spirit Energy appeared!
Cain and Kali didn't get lax in summoning their Spirit Energy. They nearly brought out their full force!
'Hu~!'
Because they released a massive quantity of Spirit Energy, audible whistling sounds whirled around their Spirit Energy balls.
A considerable wave of power gushed forth, recklessly spreading throughout the entire lobby, immediately capturing many more World Spirit Masters' attention.
This Spirit Energy wasn't overly powerful. However, it was enough to alight great intrigue upon even Senior ranking World Spirit Masters.
"Say this level of Energy….do you think it's perhaps nearing the middle of the Early layer? It certainly feels like it."
"Most definitely it should be. Compared to the other juniors around here, these two perhaps have more raw strength than them. Interesting…."
"Very interesting considering there's no way to truly perceive Spirit Energy without our help. No mistake about it; they certainly have the power. But, do they have the control?"
Many more whispers broke out about the sibling duo.
If there was any more slight arrogance or haughtiness simmering within these World Spirit Masters, it completely disappeared at this moment.
These kids are obviously cultivators genius of their generation. However, it seems like they won't be a waste of World Spirit Masters if things continue down this path.
Subconsciously, these World Spirit Masters couldn't suppress these thoughts.
And when Cain and Kali picked up on these murmurs, they similarly felt their own intrigue rise.
Just like these World Spirit Masters say, neither of them truly have a method to refine Spirit Energy. The most they got was instructions from Old Nox Soul. But just that wasn't anywhere near enough for significant progress.
Perceiving Spirit Energy wasn't a major problem. But absorbing Spirit Energy was slower than dragging themselves through quicksand!
The more Cain and Kali visited the Spiritual Dimension, the more they understood why World Spirit Masters banded together.
Even if a cultivator doesn't possess proper senior guidance or even a trashy cultivation manual, they still will be able to cultivate Qi Energy to some degree.
One's latent Martial Talent and potential determines just how far one can advance on their own.
Naturally, if a cultivator's Martial Talent is below average, reaching even the late ranks of the Spirit Opening Realm would be an astronomical challenge.
But a decent Martial Talent can reach at least Half-Step Nascent Formation given dozens of years.
Without anything and purely self-taught, a cultivator has a chance to reach the second realm of cultivation.
And the Nascent Formation realm on its own wasn't completely weak. If Cain were to compare it to his previous homeworld, an average Nascent Formation cultivator would be akin to a divine being.
They would be practically untouchable provided they weren't facing massive weapons of destruction.
But even then, a Nascent Formation cultivator wouldn't be so helpless against that behemoth of a force.
Comparing this to a World Spirit Master, the disparity was plainly evident.
A World Spirit Master on their own most likely wouldn't be able to even make an inch of progress! They would most likely be as weak as a mortal since they can't control nor improve their Spirit Energy.
Cain and Kali simply assumed because of their incredible talent that was tested by Old Nox Soul, they had a massive headstart on Spirit Energy.
Perhaps if they didn't have this fantastic innate talent, they would've been deemed common trash upon first entry.
Cain was once again thankful that lady luck seemed to always favor him in these types of situations.
At this time, the receptionist lady had actually gone quiet. Her expression shifted, casting an intent, serious gaze upon the sibling duo's Spirit Energy ball. Various thoughts rapidly streaked her mind like lightning.
Then, after just a few moments, her soft smile instantly reappeared. She ignored all other whispers and caught the sibling duo's attention back on to her as she said,
"Mn. Alright then. You will have to wait a moment. Soon, a Senior ranked member will come and take you to have your potential tested. There, we will see whether or not you'll need to take qualifying missions. And before you ask, qualifying missions would be the final determiner on if you can join our branch. Of course, if you score extremely high with your potential, you can directly skip this process."
Hearing this, Cain and Kali silently nodded as a thought popped into their minds. Simultaneously, the sibling duo crossed gazes.
Looking into each other's questioning eyes, they both knew they were wondering how much potential they should show.
As usual with these situations, Kali signals with her eyes that she'll let Cain make the choice. In terms of planning, she would gladly admit that Cain is far better than her on this front.
And Kali didn't have a massive drive to improve herself that much on this. She knows she clearly has some talent in this but improving her planning didn't have much importance attached to it. After all, with sufficient strength, most plans will crumble to pieces.
As Cain contemplated their decision, the most obvious choice would be to score as high as they could.
However, there was a very possible potential problem.
Old Nox Soul hails from the God Galaxies, so showcasing immense talent to him was very beneficial.
Comparatively, the World Spirit Master Branch is a behemoth of an organization. Raising their heads too high without sufficient protection can lead them to get quickly cut down.
Cultivators or World Spirit Masters, it wouldn't matter. The infernal feeling of envy runs incredibly deep, no matter the person.
'For at least very good protection….we should do a slight portion of true Spirit Energy. That should at least be close, if not what Lower Realm people considered close to the absolute top of Spirit Energy power.' Cain quickly forged a conclusion.
Then, with just his eyes, he signaled to Kali to follow his lead and to converse her strength.
Their sibling bond has already transcended past physical reactions and reached the level of Soul feelings. With just her Martial Heart subconsciously stimulating, Kali knew what to do and readily nodded.
As their silent exchange ended, a powerful presence suddenly entered the lobby.
Cain and Kali promptly turned their attentions towards this presence only to see a handsome man wearing a bright blue colored World Spirit Master uniform. Evidently, he was at a higher rank than the common masses of World Spirit Masters.
In the instance they locked eyes, the receptionist lady quietly informed the sibling duo,
"This will be your potential tester. You can refer to him as Spirit Elder Mo."
When the introductions were given, Spirit Elder Mo had already reached a few feet from the sibling duo.
A noticeable glint twinkled in his eyes as Spirit Elder Mo inspected the sibling duo's Spirit Aura. Indifferently nodding his head, he told them,
"Follow behind me. This won't take long." Curt and cordial was a perfect way to describe this man.
Spirit Elder Mo didn't waste a second more as he swiftly turned around and walked towards one of the many corridors in the lobby.
Cain and Kali didn't hesitate, promptly following right behind him.
Under all curious World Spirit Master's eyes, the sibling duo went to test their potential. And many genuinely had decent thoughts about these cultivators foreigners.
….
Walking down the massive corridors of the World Spirit Master Branch was certainly an enlightening experience.
Just when Cain thought these powerful people couldn't get more exaggerated with their designs, these World Spirit Masters simply blew the Crimson Sea Academy out of the water!
These corridors were like strolling down a massive street with how spacious they were.
Honestly, Cain just had no idea how could they fit all of this into one massive building.
Although, despite the long spaces here, it didn't take long for Spirit Elder Mo to lead the sibling duo towards one finely crafted door.
This door was distinct as there was a row of luminous blue color stones covering its whole surface.
When probing this door, Cain and Kali were a bit surprised. They felt like their Spirit Sense had just violently crashed right into an immovable wall!
With senses alone, the sibling duo could tell they wouldn't be able to break down this door even with their full power.
However, all Spirit Elder Mo did was causally wave his hand. And with his simple movements, an invisible force gushed from his palm, soaring directly into the bluestone door.
With a light, dull sound, the stones disappeared, causing the door to fling right open!
Cain and Kali didn't even have time to be surprised as Spirit Elder Mo stepped aside and gestured towards the room.
He told them, "Step in here.. This is where all potential testing is done."
