Time passed in a flash, and it was already Jiang Chen's last day in the Pope's Palace.
What left Jiang Chen helpless was that Hu Liena had once again resumed her offensive against him. However, under his strong resistance, she never succeeded.
Hu Liena's words to him were: "I believe I can definitely replace her in your heart. I believe I have that strength."
Proud and arrogant, and as the Pope's disciple, how could Hu Liena be willing to lose to another girl? This was her determination.
She believed that with her charm, she could definitely win Jiang Chen back.
Such a handsome and powerful junior brother could not be cheaply given to someone else.
...
In the afternoon, inside Bibi Dong's study.
Jiang Chen and Hu Liena were respectfully listening to Bibi Dong's instructions.
"Nana, you must take good care of Little Chen in the academy and not let him be bullied, understand?"
Hu Liena nodded repeatedly: "Teacher, rest assured. With me here, no one dares to bully Junior Brother."
"No one dares, my ass." Jiang Chen muttered in his heart.
Hu Liena had so many suitors. With his explosively handsome appearance, walking together with Hu Liena, how could anyone want to bully him?
Bibi Dong nodded in satisfaction, then looked at Jiang Chen: "Little Chen, Teacher has one request for you. I hope you can fulfill it."
"Teacher, please say it. I will definitely do it."
"Teacher hopes that while you're in the academy, you do not use your martial soul or soul bones."
"Teacher, I can do that. But why can't I use them?" Jiang Chen asked in confusion.
Bibi Dong said, "Your Sister Xue'er is out on a mission right now, and her identity cannot be known to others. Don't you want to go find her later? So, during the few years in the Spirit Hall Academy, it's best if you don't use your martial soul. Otherwise, with your terrifying configuration of two thousand-year soul rings and one ten-thousand-year soul ring, plus the special nature of your martial soul, if you're by her side later, someone might recognize your identity."
Jiang Chen came to a sudden realization. So he had to hide his martial soul now. That way, when he was by Qian Renxue's side in the future, no one would suspect he was from the Spirit Hall.
Although the students in the Spirit Hall Academy were all young descendants of forces under the Spirit Hall, there was no guarantee that some wouldn't be assigned to external Spirit Hall branches later or even betray the Spirit Hall.
If those people recognized Jiang Chen's identity at that time, it would indeed have been very troublesome.
"Teacher, but during the boot camp, those students all knew my martial soul." Jiang Chen said worriedly.
Bibi Dong smiled: "Don't worry. The teacher has already handled those students for you."
Jiang Chen was startled and quickly asked, "Teacher, did you kill them all?"
But he could still sense Zhao Youyue's existence right now, which meant Zhao Youyue was still perfectly fine.
Bibi Dong shook her head: "They are all talents of my Spirit Hall. How could I kill them? Their families are all in Spirit City. There are many ways to make them behave obediently."
"Then, Teacher, you want me to keep a low profile in the academy?"
Bibi Dong looked at Jiang Chen: 'Little brat, don't think that I don't know your strength. Even without using your martial soul, with that strange speed and melee combat skill of yours, within the range of Soul Elder, there aren't many who are your rivals.'
Jiang Chen chuckled a few times, looking a bit smug.
"Of course, if a Soul Ancestor makes a move against you, even if you can't beat them, you still cannot use your martial soul."
"Teacher, rest assured. Even without using my martial soul, I can make those Soul Ancestors cry out in pain."
"Oh? How about having your senior sister spar with you later?" Hu Liena's excited voice came over, looking eager to try.
Last time, she had suffered greatly from Jiang Chen's corpse poison array, ending up caught by him when she got close. Ever since breaking through to Soul Ancestor, she hadn't avenged that grudge yet.
If Jiang Chen didn't use his martial soul, she was confident she could make him sink into the illusion and be unable to extricate himself.
"Senior Sister, better not." Jiang Chen quickly shook his head. Just thinking of Hu Liena's fourth soul skill made him a little scared.
"Good. You two can indeed practice a bit." Bibi Dong smiled.
"Alright, you two go back now. Set off directly tomorrow. No need to come see me."
"Understood, Teacher."
...
Hu Liena grabbed Jiang Chen and hurriedly dragged him out. Ignoring his refusal, she directly pulled him onto the arena.
"Senior Sister, I'm doing this for your own good. If I don't use my martial soul and still beat you, wouldn't that be very embarrassing for you?" Jiang Chen kindly advised.
"Bullshit. If you don't use your martial soul and can still win against me, then I'll let you do whatever you want with me! If you lose, then you'll be at my mercy. How about it?" Hu Liena said smugly, her eyes full of provocation.
Though she said that, she didn't give Jiang Chen any time to answer. She instantly released her martial soul, and her four soul rings, fourth, third, second, and first, lit up one after another. Pink light enveloped Jiang Chen.
Sensing that Jiang Chen had already fallen into her charm illusion, Hu Liena smirked, pulled out a large hammer, and charged toward Jiang Chen.
As long as she knocked Jiang Chen unconscious, this match would be her victory.
Hu Liena's most powerful move was her fourth soul skill. Jiang Chen had already experienced it once before; this was the second time, and it was still terrifying.
In the illusion, he, Qian Renxue, and Hu Liena had reached the critical point. Under the amplified desire, he completely forgot that he was currently sparring with Hu Liena.
Duang~
Jiang Chen's head spun, and he was knocked out of that amorous illusion.
"Senior Sister, you..." Jiang Chen looked dazedly at Hu Liena holding the big iron hammer, his mind a bit fuzzy.
"Little Chen, you're so hard. Senior Sister likes it." Before Jiang Chen could fully wake up, Hu Liena activated her skill again.
Then another hammer strike came down.
Duang~ Duang~~~
Jiang Chen was almost knocked unconscious. Every time he came out of the illusion, he saw Hu Liena raising the big hammer. He got angry.
Then Hu Liena discovered that as soon as Jiang Chen entered the illusion, he began to struggle. Before her hammer could even descend halfway, Jiang Chen had already woken up on his own.
"Oh no!" Hu Liena cried out inwardly.
Immediately after, she saw Jiang Chen grab the hammer in her hand. His eyes had turned pitch black like ink, with black qi constantly emanating from them—quite terrifying.
Those two pure white fangs made Hu Liena involuntarily recall the tragic fate of that lightning marten.
Jiang Chen's emotions were somewhat agitated. He directly pounced and pinned Hu Liena to the ground.
Hu Liena's head hit the ground, leaving her a bit dizzy. Then Jiang Chen sat on her stomach, lowering his head and staring at her neck while swallowing saliva.
A sudden chill rose in Hu Liena's heart. She shouted, "Little Chen, don't suck me! Senior Sister will die!"
Her soul skill continued to activate, but she found its effect on Jiang Chen was now negligible. Jiang Chen was only dazed for a moment before breaking free of her charm.
Jiang Chen pinned down Hu Liena's hands, opened his mouth, and leaned down, getting closer and closer to that fair neck.
"Little Chen, no! I'm your senior sister! You can't do this to me!" Hu Liena shouted desperately.
Jiang Chen remained unmoved. Finally, he stopped at her neck. He didn't actually bite down; he just wanted to scare Hu Liena a little.
She had hammered him so many times. At the very least, he had to let her taste the feeling of fear.
But that snow-white, crystalline neck was truly full of temptation, emitting bursts of faint fragrance. He could sense the blood rapidly flowing inside.
He couldn't help himself and licked it once.
"Ah~" Hu Liena screamed, her whole body trembling.
