"Greetings, Your Holiness the Pope."
At this moment, everyone from the Spirit Hall knelt on one knee.
There were four people behind Bibi Dong.
They are Ning Fengzhi, Chrysanthemum Douluo, Ghost Douluo, and Sword Douluo Chen Xin.
People from other colleges also mostly knelt down.
None of the others from the Heaven Dou Royal Academy knelt down upon seeing Xiao Ze, and they all made the same choice.
Bibi Dong's gaze fell on Xiao Ze, and she nodded slightly.
Ning Fengzhi was somewhat shocked by Bibi Dong's actions. What did this mean?
Could it be that Bibi Dong and Xiao Ze know each other...?
Or is it because of something else?
Bibi Dong didn't care, after all, Xiao Ze wasn't that respectful when he was in front of her.
"Rise." Her voice wasn't loud, but it reached everyone's ears precisely.
"You are all very good. I see hope in you." Bibi Dong's gaze swept over the crowd, then lingered on Tang San for a second before looking at Xiao Wu beside him.
Bibi Dong's lips curled up. Although she didn't know how this little rabbit had concealed its identity as a soul beast, the hateful look in its eyes told her that this little rabbit must be the child of that rabbit from back then.
That's the one who ran away, that's really interesting.
It's outrageous that a spirit beast would transform into a human in order to seek revenge.
However, Bibi Dong had to admit that the Soft Bone Rabbit might not necessarily be as powerful as a Soul Master of the Soft Bone Rabbit.
Of course, at least a Title Douluo is needed for comparison; otherwise, wouldn't a 100,000-year-old soul beast simply crush it?
Bibi Dong gently tapped her scepter.
Three dazzling lights suddenly appeared in front of Bibi Dong, illuminating the area in front of the Papal Palace with a radiant glow.
What appeared were three soul bones.
They consist of a right arm bone, a skull, and a left leg bone.
The light shone in three colors: fiery red, light blue, and dark green.
Even at the foot of Pope Mountain, the light of the three soul bones could be seen, and the soul masters in Wuhun City were in an uproar.
These are soul bones, and three soul bones at that!
Many soul masters never see a soul bone in their entire lives, let alone possess one.
However, the champion of this Soul Master Competition will receive three Soul Bones directly.
Upon seeing these three soul bones, everyone gasped in shock.
Many even revealed greed in their eyes.
After all, this is a soul bone, which is the most precious thing for a soul master.
These are still three pieces of ten-thousand-year-old soul bones.
"The three soul bones are the skull of wisdom formed by spiritual condensation, the right arm of explosive burning flames, and the left leg of rapid forward movement like chasing the wind."
All three soul bones are over ten thousand years old. Among them, the wisdom skull, formed from concentrated spirit energy, is over fifty thousand years old—a top-grade specimen.
Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes widened in astonishment.
Hu Liena felt a pang of heartache. A 50,000-year-old soul bone! It was clearly something her teacher had prepared for her, but now it was gone.
These three soul bones were specially selected by Bibi Dong for the Golden Generation.
The skull of spiritual wisdom naturally belongs to Hu Liena, and it can enhance Hu Liena's charm.
The right arm, with its explosive, burning flames, was given to Yan.
The left leg of the rapidly advancing Chasing Wind belongs to Evil Moon.
Xiao Ze almost burst out laughing; they could also use these three soul bones.
Ning Rongrong, Zhu Zhuqing, and Huo Wu are all very suitable for these three soul bones.
He was a little embarrassed.
When Bibi Dong saw Xiao Ze's expression of wanting but holding back, she was somewhat angry but helpless.
She said, "The winner is one after the winner, and the final champion can get three soul bones."
The other seven teams were filled with envy.
These are all ten-thousand-year-old soul bones; they might not even get one in their lifetime.
The champion can get three medals directly.
"This morning, the three teams will compete in an individual elimination tournament. The team that remains will advance directly to the championship match."
The two losing teams will compete in the afternoon for the other final spot.
"Your Holiness the Pope." Shui Bing'er stepped forward.
"Is there anything you want to say?" Bibi Dong asked.
"Our Tianshui Academy is forfeiting the competition," Shui Bing'er said.
"Give up the individual competition, or everything?" Bibi Dong nodded slightly.
"all."
Are you sure?
"It's confirmed that there's still a significant gap between our Tianshui Academy and theirs. To save some time, let's have the two teams compete."
Bibi Dong nodded: "In that case, I agree. Now there are only two teams left. So, the Tiandou Royal Academy team and the Wuhun Academy team will have a team competition. The winner will be the champion, the loser will be the runner-up, and Tianshui Academy will be the third place."
After saying that, Bibi Dong sat down on the gilded chair.
The competition wasn't important to her; she was more interested in seeing just how strong Tang Hao, who had been revived by the Asura God, really was.
She has already summoned many Title Douluos from the Spirit Hall and notified the Hall of Offerings. She refuses to believe that so many Title Douluos cannot defeat Tang Hao.
"The final of the All-Continent Elite Tournament for Advanced Soul Master Academies is about to begin. Team members, please prepare. The match will begin in 15 minutes."
Xiao Ze and the others stood there chatting and laughing.
Meanwhile, the seven people from the Martial Soul Academy had solemn expressions.
"They really don't take us seriously!" Yan said angrily.
"They are too strong, which is normal. Xiao Ze alone is beyond our ability to deal with," Hu Liena sighed softly.
"These are three ten-thousand-year-old soul bones!" Yan said, somewhat unwilling.
"Yan! What can we do even if we're unwilling? Our lack of strength is our original sin," Xie Yue said.
Hu Liena reminded him, "Yan, this soul bone isn't exactly free."
"What do you mean?" Yan's brain wasn't working properly.
"You'll see when the time comes, so don't do anything reckless later," Hu Liena said.
Xie Yue seemed to be deep in thought upon hearing this.
It seems that Xiao Ze was staying at the Spirit Hall a while ago, and was being taken care of by Nana. Doesn't that mean that Xiao Ze has a very high status in the Spirit Hall?
Could it be... that he joined the Spirit Hall?
If that's the case, then it really can't be considered a freebie. A Soul Master as powerful as Xiao Ze will definitely become a Title Douluo in the future, or even stronger.
For the Spirit Hall, it seems like an investment.
However, the investment was a bit too large.
Of course, this was only because Xie Yue was unaware of the power of Xiao Ze's martial soul. Otherwise, she would have known that these three soul bones were too cheap, and that even a 100,000-year soul bone wouldn't be enough.
As powerful Soul Masters, Ning Fengzhi and Sword Douluo naturally had sharp ears and overheard the discussion at the Martial Soul Academy.
The two looked at each other in bewilderment.
Ning Fengzhi frowned. Hu Liena was Bibi Dong's student, so the chances were quite high.
However, he didn't know why Xiao Ze joined the Spirit Hall, but Xiao Ze was a very thoughtful kid.
Just listen to his explanation later.
Sword Douluo remained silent, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Bibi Dong glanced at their expressions and a smile crept onto her lips.
