As a member of the Qian family who had awakened the Angel Martial Soul, although Qian Xunji himself had not experienced a Gods Trial, he knew a great deal about them.
Things like what rewards a Gods Trial usually offered and what its difficulty was like could all be discerned from the contents of the Gods Trials of past Qian family ancestors.
And as everyone knew, a Gods Trial would never issue tasks that were absolutely impossible to complete.
Therefore, upon learning the content of Yu Xiaogang's Gods Trial, Qian Xunji immediately understood what kind of evil was hidden in the shadows of the current Douluo Continent.
"At least one Titled Douluo and ten Spirit Douluo-level Fallen Spirit Masters."
"The actual situation might be even worse..."
Qian Xunji's expression turned cold.
Qian Xunji had a very clear understanding of himself; he knew he was not a good person.
Being able to possess his current strength was purely due to the advantage of his talent.
However, once one obtained some things, one often wanted to obtain even more.
Qian Xunji was just like that; having obtained his current strength, he wanted to reach even greater heights.
Qian Xunji even fantasized sometimes about what would happen if he truly managed to eliminate the Two Great Empires and bring the entire Douluo Continent under his control.
Would he be able to become a new god just like his ancestors?
Qian Xunji did not know, but he would take it one step at a time.
However, even though Qian Xunji admitted he was not a good person, he still possessed his own pride.
At the very least, the likes of Fallen Spirit Masters truly could not catch his eye.
Those guys who relied on draining the Life of others to improve themselves were, in Qian Xunji's eyes, nothing more than filthy vermin.
Even utilizing Fallen Spirit Masters made Qian Xunji feel like he was lowering his status.
Therefore, when he served as the Supreme Pontiff, he had very seriously instructed his subordinates to keep an eye on the situation regarding Fallen Spirit Masters.
If there was any problem they couldn't solve, they were to report it immediately so that he, the Supreme Pontiff, could handle it personally.
But what was the result? At least one Titled Douluo and ten Spirit Douluo-level Fallen Spirit Masters had appeared on the Douluo Continent, appearing during his time as Supreme Pontiff.
What was this?
This was a slap in the face to him, Qian Xunji!
"Where exactly did the problem arise?"
Qian Xunji's sharp gaze swept over the two Titled Douluo below, Dragon and Iron Wall, and then over the other few Spirit Douluo.
These were the most capable assistants of the Supreme Pontiff Palace, and the orders he issued were all passed on by them.
And the intelligence submitted to Spirit Hall had also passed through their hands.
The members of the Supreme Pontiff Palace who were swept by Qian Xunji's gaze all looked straight ahead, calmly accepting their Supreme Pontiff's scrutiny.
They could not possibly conceal matters regarding Fallen Spirit Masters; after all, with a scale of one Titled Douluo and ten Spirit Douluo, even if they wanted to harbor them, they wouldn't dare.
Who didn't know that Fallen Spirit Masters had bizarre methods and had completely abandoned human morality?
Harboring such people was completely akin to raising a group of bombs for oneself.
Scanning the people of the Supreme Pontiff Palace, Qian Xunji withdrew his gaze.
He was still very clear about the character of this group in the Supreme Pontiff Palace.
Regarding Fallen Spirit Masters, truly no one dared to risk violating Spirit Hall's prohibition.
"Then that means, could it be that group of people below?"
"But that doesn't seem right either; the combat power of that group below is even lower. Where would they find the confidence to harbor such a group of guys who could betray them at any moment?"
Qian Xunji was completely baffled.
Outside of Spirit City, the Spirit Halls in other towns were all branch halls.
And the strength of the branch hall masters would be dispatched according to the situation of the city.
In major cities like Heaven Dou City and Star Luo City, the configuration of a branch hall was basically one Spirit Douluo, paired with a few Spirit Saints.
In second-tier towns, it was one Spirit Saint paired with a few Spirit Emperors.
In short, it decreased level by level until all towns on the Douluo Continent had a Spirit Hall branch arranged.
Under the coverage of such an intelligence network, Qian Xunji did not believe there could be Fallen Spirit Masters who grew to this level without being discovered.
After all, the Cultivation of Fallen Spirit Masters inevitably involved slaughter; as long as there were major tragedies appearing somewhere, it meant there were Fallen Spirit Masters there.
It was a method of judgment that couldn't be simpler.
"Or perhaps, this group of Fallen Spirit Masters has a new method of Cultivation?"
Thinking of this, Qian Xunji looked at Qian Daoliu and explained his thoughts to him.
Qian Daoliu was noncommittal; he merely swept a cold glance at Qian Xunji.
"I don't care what you think. In short, I want to see you take action immediately, and I also do not wish to see similar things happen in the future!"
"If there is another incident like this, I think you should stop being the Supreme Pontiff!"
Having said that, Qian Daoliu turned and left the Supreme Pontiff Palace.
He was not at ease with just Qian Xunji alone, so Qian Daoliu also prepared to activate his own means to search for those hidden Fallen Spirit Masters on the Douluo Continent.
Gold Crocodile Douluo and the other priests patted Qian Xunji on the shoulder and also left.
Yu Xiaogang had originally intended to leave with them, but he was called back by Qian Xunji.
"Give me a detailed description of the content of your second Gods Trial, and don't leave out a single word!"
Qian Xunji's gaze was nailed to Yu Xiaogang. Yu Xiaogang was relieved that Qian Xunji couldn't shoot beams from his eyes, otherwise he feared he would have been pierced by his gaze.
"Kill one Titled Douluo-level Fallen Spirit Master, or kill ten Spirit Douluo-level Fallen Spirit Masters."
"The time limit is before the age of twenty-two."
Yu Xiaogang said everything about the content of his second Gods Trial.
"What about the rewards?"
Qian Xunji asked in pursuit.
"spirit ring age increase, all spirit rings by two thousand years."
Yu Xiaogang did not hide it and revealed his rewards; after all, there was no point in hiding it.
As for this reward, Yu Xiaogang was very satisfied.
According to the High Priest Qian Daoliu, spirit ring age increase was the most commonly appearing reward.
His configuration of eight black and one red was obtained through Gods Trials.
And for what level a person's final spirit rings would be, the first time they received an age increase reward was particularly important.
Some people's first time receiving this reward was five hundred years, while others' was one thousand years.
And as the High Priest, Qian Daoliu, who was also extremely outstanding in talent and ability in the Qian family's history, had a first spirit ring age increase reward of one thousand five hundred years.
Why was it said that the first age increase was very important?
That was because subsequent age rewards would not be lower than the first.
Some people always received the same age increase until the final Gods Trial, when they received a huge increase.
Others received an increase with every Gods Trial.
But regardless of the method, there was a huge gap between the first time being five hundred years and the first time being one thousand years.
A different starting point meant a different upper limit.
If one step was slow, every step would be slow.
Therefore, when Yu Xiaogang saw that his first age increase reward was actually two thousand years, his face was full of surprise and joy.
With such a high starting point, how much of an increase he could eventually obtain was simply unimaginable.
In the end, endless joy turned into a simple expression of gratitude, sent to that generous god.
"Praise the Angel God!"
