Spirit City, Supreme Pontiff Palace.
Two figures, supporting each other, with their clothes burnt to tatters and looking disheveled, one yellow and one black, appeared inside the grand hall.
The noble figure at the highest point of the hall saw their appearance, her eyes swept over the note they handed in, and a ripple appeared on her face:
"Do not do unto others what you would not have them do unto you… If you can do it, so can I… Is this person warning and threatening this Supreme Pontiff? How audacious!"
"Supreme Pontiff, this person's strength is extremely formidable. If it weren't for the old ghost's elusive movement technique, making him extremely difficult to lock onto, and them having to protect the students' safety, I'm afraid we wouldn't even have had the chance to return. He has a hundred-thousand-year spirit ring, and his power is the strongest I have ever seen!"
Yue Guan and Gui Mei said with trembling voices. That move, Goka Fire, reminded them of the power from the pursuit of a hundred-thousand-year Spirit Beast more than ten years ago. This time, it was no less powerful in comparison!
"I have long said that Xin's strength is unusual. Even if you are Level 95 Titled Douluo, you cannot underestimate him. Moreover, his academy also has members of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, and the powerhouses of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School will not sit idly by. If you take abnormal means, the possibility of success is extremely small."
"But you still chose the lowest, undignified option in the end. I am very disappointed in you."
At this moment, a middle-aged man walked out from the side door of the Supreme Pontiff Palace, looking at the several people with his hands behind his back and said.
"It was clearly the intelligence you provided—that the Teacher Xin of Heart of Fire Academy had at most the strength of a Spirit Douluo, leading us to ambush him."
Grandmaster said coldly, "I merely stated the situation of Heart of Fire Academy. I never told you to attack Heart of Fire Academy."
"You—cough, cough—"
Yue Guan and Gui Mei, who were already severely injured, were so angered by Grandmaster that they directly spat out a mouthful of old blood on the spot.
It was this guy who came to Spirit Hall to prance around ten days ago, and Supreme Pontiff, who knows what medicine she took, actually has an extremely high tolerance for this guy.
"Alright, since the operation failed, then so be it. This Supreme Pontiff wants to see what kind of strength the team trained by this Teacher Xin of Heart of Fire Academy truly possesses."
"You two go down and heal your injuries first."
Bibi Dong clenched the note and said coldly.
This Xin is truly arrogant, daring to even threaten and warn the Supreme Pontiff!
Little did she know, the note she was currently ravaging would one day be cherished by her as a treasure.
"Yes."
Yue Guan and Gui Mei grudgingly exited the Supreme Pontiff Palace. They were severely injured this time.
Yue Guan's Spirit, the Odd-Shaped Silvery Chrysanthemum, and Gui Mei's Spirit both suffered varying degrees of damage, and there was even a phenomenon of spirit power regression, which was a very serious matter for Spirit Masters of their level.
Outside the Supreme Pontiff Palace, Yue Guan grumbled unhappily:
"What kind of Grandmaster is he? He doesn't even have any spirit power, yet he can mix with the Supreme Pontiff's orders, and he doesn't even look that good. I really don't understand why Supreme Pontiff values him so much."
"Alright, you dead eunuch, Supreme Pontiff naturally has her reasons, but… the two of us, I'm afraid we won't be able to serve Supreme Pontiff for a while. This Xin's strength is truly terrifying, even more so than Tang Hao…"
A hint of fear appeared on Gui Mei's shadowy, chiseled face.
And in Yue Guan's eyes, there was a hint of reverence:
"What a pity. If Supreme Pontiff had issued a recruitment order, how wonderful that would have been. This guy's Spirit actually made my Odd-Shaped Silvery Chrysanthemum revere and tremble, which is enough to show that his Spirit quality is above mine! Beautiful, truly an immortal-grade Spirit of peerless beauty!"
