“Oh, I see.
In that case, we won’t interrupt your cultivation.
Xiaogang, let’s go.” Bibi Dong shot Yu Xiaogang a look, clumsily using her body to block the book in his hands from view.
She pushed Yu Xiaogang, wanting to leave.
On the surface, Qin Xuan remained calm and expressionless, but inwardly he was plotting.
He called out to stop them: “Your name is Yu Xiaogang, right?”
The two turned around.
Yu Xiaogang stood behind Bibi Dong.
“Yes.
I wonder what guidance Lord Qin Xuan has for me.”
Yu Xiaogang was only able to join Spirit Hall through Bibi Dong’s backdoor connections; his status was virtually nonexistent.
Facing Qin Xuan, the ‘number two figure of Spirit Hall’s younger generation,’ he naturally had to use an honorific.
Yet, perhaps because of Bibi Dong, or perhaps because he was born into the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, or maybe both, Qin Xuan couldn’t detect a shred of respect in his tone.
His face was calm, his voice indifferent.
Qin Xuan pursed his lips.
“Guidance is a strong word.
It’s just that I seemed to hear Her Highness the Holy Maiden mention earlier that you’ll become a Grandmaster of Theory in the future.
I wonder if that’s true or false?”
Before Yu Xiaogang could answer, Bibi Dong stepped forward protectively, shouting her question, “Qin Xuan, what do you mean by that?”
She was worried Qin Xuan would strike a nerve with Yu Xiaogang and hurt his pathetic, fragile ego.
For a moment, she even forgot about the ‘Spirit Hall Top Secret’ book Yu Xiaogang was holding.
[Bibi Dong Affection: -10 (Disgust)]
Hearing Bibi Dong’s affection for him drop, Qin Xuan didn’t care at all.
“Nothing much.
I just wanted to ask this future Grandmaster of Theory a few questions, that’s all.”
Even though he liked Bibi Dong in his past life and was very attracted to her body, Qin Xuan had no habit of being a simp.
If Bibi Dong hadn’t fallen for Yu Xiaogang yet, he would have tried to win her over, chatting with her pleasantly and using genuine feelings to move her.
But her heart was already with Yu Xiaogang, so there was no need to press his hot face against a cold behind.
“Feel free to ask.” Yu Xiaogang was unaware of his current predicament.
He stepped to Bibi Dong’s side, gave her a confident look, and then faced Qin Xuan directly, brimming with confidence.
In terms of cultivation talent, he, Yu Xiaogang, might not be great, but when it came to theory, he had never feared anyone.
“I heard you talking about me earlier.
How much do you know about my martial soul?” Qin Xuan asked.
Yu Xiaogang organized his thoughts slightly and said seriously: “You, Qin Xuan.
Martial Soul: Changming Sword.
Because an ancient Vermillion Bird is sealed within your martial soul, when you broke through to Soul King at the age of eighteen, you shattered the Douluo Continent convention that one person can only have one teacher in their lifetime.
You were exceptionally accepted as a disciple by the Elder Palace’s Second and Third Consecrates, the level 96 Super Douluos Qianjun and Xiangmo.”
“And what about the consecrates of the Elder Palace?” Qin Xuan continued to ask.
Yu Xiaogang spoke with assurance, his face unusually confident: “The Grand Consecrate, Qian Daoliu.
Martial Soul: Six-Winged Angel.
A level 99 Limit Douluo.” “The Second Consecrate, Golden Crocodile Douluo.
A level 98 Peak Douluo, Martial Soul: Golden Crocodile King.” “The Third Consecrate, Green Luan Douluo.
A level 97 Peak Douluo, Martial Soul: Green Luan.” “The Fourth Consecrate, Male Lion Douluo.
A level 97 Peak Douluo, Martial Soul: Flaming Lion.” “The Fifth Consecrate, Light Feather (Light Feather) Douluo.
A level 96 Peak Douluo, Martial Soul: Light Feather Divine Bow.” “The last two are your teachers.
They are biological brothers.
Their martial soul is the Coiling Dragon Staff, which seals the ancient divergent beast, the Evil-Shattering Dragon.
When the brothers join forces, they far exceed ordinary Peak Douluos; even the Grand Consecrate cannot easily defeat them.” “I believe the reason they exceptionally accepted you as a disciple is perhaps because your martial soul is similar to theirs, sealing an ancient divergent beast, the Vermillion Bird.”
All of this, including the reason Qin Xuan was exceptionally taken in as a disciple, had been told to him by Bibi Dong.
He thought to himself: Is that it?
You think this can stump this Grandmaster?
Bibi Dong, however, was full of worry.
Although she was naive in worldly affairs and a fool for love because Qian Xunji protected her too well, that didn’t mean she was stupid.
On the contrary, she was very smart, just knowingly doing the impossible.
Back when her teacher, Qian Xunji, told her these things, he had specifically stated that the seven consecrates of the Elder Palace were Spirit Hall’s true foundation.
Information about those seven must absolutely not be leaked to anyone.
And now…
[Bibi Dong Affection: -10 (Deepening Disgust)]
Qin Xuan continued his step-by-step guidance.
“And what about the martial soul of His Holiness the Pope?”
“Xiaogang, ignore him.” Bibi Dong knew that if Yu Xiaogang blabbed about this too, they would be in serious trouble.
She grabbed Yu Xiaogang’s wrist, wanting to leave.
But Yu Xiaogang smiled and stopped in his tracks.
He knew Qin Xuan also liked Bibi Dong, so he thought Qin Xuan was trying to use this opportunity to test him and embarrass him.
Unfortunately, Qin Xuan had miscalculated.
In terms of soul power, he, Yu Xiaogang, might be slightly—ahem, a hundred million times—inferior to Qin Xuan.
But in theory—he was invincible in the world.
Sooner or later, he would prove to the world that he, Yu Xiaogang, was no piece of trash.
“It’s fine, Bibi Dong.
Since he wants to ask, I can just tell him.
Otherwise…
I’m afraid he’ll never give up.” Yu Xiaogang turned back to Qin Xuan.
“The Pope’s martial soul is no secret in Spirit Hall.
He is the son of the Grand Consecrate, so his martial soul is naturally the Six-Winged Angel.”
Speaking up to this point, Yu Xiaogang glanced at the book in his hand and added, “At the same time, I also know that Spirit Hall possesses six inherited spirit bones known as the Angel Suit.
Each piece is 99,999 years old.
One must possess the Angel martial soul and gain the recognition of the spirit bones to absorb them.
It is said that when one gains the recognition of all six spirit bones, they can break through the final boundary and become a god at level 100.”
“His Holiness the Pope cultivated to a Titled Douluo by the age of 50.
He has successively broken through since then.
I hypothesize that he has already integrated at least one of the Angel Suit spirit bones, otherwise, it would be impossible to…”
As Yu Xiaogang spoke, he was practically floating with pride.
He was confident that Qin Xuan couldn’t possibly know these “theories.” A sense of superiority welled up inside him.
So what if your talent is stronger than mine?
So what if you have innate full soul power?
So what if you have a top-tier assault system tool martial soul?
Can your theoretical knowledge match this Grandmaster’s?
That was Yu Xiaogang’s inner voice at this moment.
But Bibi Dong’s heart turned utterly cold.
If these words reached her teacher, the Pope, it would bring a fatal disaster upon Yu Xiaogang.
Clap, clap…
Qin Xuan applauded, a fake smile plastered on his face.
“Truly worthy of being the future Grandmaster of Theory.
You even know the absolute core secrets of our Spirit Hall.
In fact, you know them much more clearly than I do, a disciple of the consecrates.”
“…” Question marks popped up on Yu Xiaogang’s face.
For a moment, he couldn’t figure out what Qin Xuan was playing at, but an ominous feeling involuntarily rose in his heart.
“Qin Xuan, what exactly are you trying to do?” Bibi Dong knew they had fallen into Qin Xuan’s hands today.
But she couldn’t understand why someone who used to be so ‘kind and friendly’ had suddenly changed overnight.
He had become unfamiliar to her.
He made her feel fear.
