But he knew all too well what it meant to be a Great Soul Master with two thousand-year-old soul rings at the age of seven.
This matter has far exceeded his ability to handle!
Without the slightest hesitation, Salas traveled day and night, returning to Wuhun City at top speed.
He remained kneeling.
In the most concise and clear language, all the information about the Eastern Mirror will be presented—
Judging from his amazing performance in the Water Wave Grand Arena, his battle with Shi Lei, and his suspected contact with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School,
Finally, his mysterious disappearance at the Seven Treasures Inn, and the unusual attitude of Ning Fengzhi and Sword Douluo,
He reported the matter to his superiors in a low voice without reservation.
Seated on her supreme throne, Bibi Dong listened to Salas's report.
Her exquisite face was covered in frost, and she exuded a chilling aura.
Ignoring the kneeling Salas, he instead cast his cold gaze at Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan and Ghost Douluo Gui Mei, who stood on either side.
Chapter 41 Bibi Dong's Decision, Chrysanthemum and Ghost Douluo's Conspiracy, and Reactions from All Sides
Bibi Dong turned her gaze to Chrysanthemum Ghost Douluo.
"Elders," her voice was devoid of emotion, yet it carried an undeniable air of authority.
"How do you think this matter should be handled?"
The two Douluo, Chrysanthemum and Demon, exchanged a glance.
Ghost spoke first, his voice hoarse: "Your Majesty, in my opinion, we should inform all branch halls across the continent of this boy's characteristics, so that all members can keep a close watch. Once discovered, without needing to ask for permission, he can be killed on the spot to prevent future troubles!"
His proposal was direct and brutal, consistent with his usual style.
Upon hearing this, Chrysanthemum Douluo slightly furrowed his exquisitely drawn brows.
The high-pitched voice carried a hint of concern: "Old ghost, this method may be inappropriate."
He turned to Bibi Dong and respectfully analyzed, "Let's not even talk about how far or how big his unheard-of and bizarre escape technique can go. Perhaps he's in Tian Dou today, but he'll be back in Xing Luo territory tomorrow."
The Douluo Continent is so vast; searching aimlessly like this, how long would it take to find it?
He paused, then continued, "Furthermore, according to Salas, this boy is independent-minded and seems unwilling to join my Spirit Hall, and indifferent to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's recruitment efforts, preferring to wander alone."
This has already attracted the attention of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. If we escalate the situation and issue an open warrant, we will inevitably alert the enemy and draw the attention of the two great empires and other sects.
If we drive that child to the brink of desperation, forcing them to seek refuge with a powerful sect for self-preservation, and then allow them to grow stronger and become enemies of my Spirit Hall, that would be the worst possible outcome!
Bibi Dong listened quietly, her slender fingers gently tapping the luxurious armrest, her eyes filled with thoughts.
She nodded slightly, feeling that Yue Guan's analysis was more comprehensive.
She murmured softly, as if talking to herself, or perhaps asking a question:
"Since he possesses the secret technique to absorb spirit rings beyond his level, I wonder if he has other methods as well."
Thinking of this, her eyes suddenly narrowed, clearly indicating that she had made a decision.
His gaze sharpened and hardened as he said to Kiku and Kiku, "In that case, ordinary methods may not be effective and could even backfire. I'll have to trouble you two elders to make the trip."
Her words startled Yue Guan and Gui Mei slightly.
"I require that the two of you go personally and find that boy at all costs."
Bibi Dong emphasized, "You must bring him back to me alive!"
"."
Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo were stunned for a moment, their hearts almost breaking.
So all that pros and cons analysis we did just now, and you didn't listen at all?!
We are dignified Title Douluo, the pillars of the Spirit Hall!
They actually had to personally go out and search for a seven-year-old child in the vast sea of people?!
This is an outrageous waste of talent!
Resentment grew in the hearts of the two.
But faced with Bibi Dong's unquestionable gaze and unfathomable pressure,
They dared not reveal it at all.
They could only suppress their grievances, bow in unison, and reluctantly reply, "Yes, Your Majesty."
Bibi Dong seemed to have anticipated their reaction, nodding in satisfaction.
He waved his hand, giving final instructions: "The two elders, go and make preparations, then you may depart. This matter is confidential and should not be publicized."
His gaze then shifted to Salas, who remained kneeling on the ground, his tone indifferent yet carrying an invisible pressure:
"As for you, Salas, considering your many years of service to the Spirit Hall, I will not pursue this matter for your negligence."
Her voice suddenly turned cold: "But, if there's a next time, you know the consequences."
Salas trembled and quickly lowered his head, his voice filled with gratitude and fear: "Thank you for your mercy, Your Majesty! I understand! There will be no next time!"
After the three of them, each with their own thoughts, respectfully withdrew from the empty and oppressive hall.
Bibi Dong, seated on her throne, slightly subsided her powerful aura.
She leaned back slightly and let out a barely audible sigh.
Her fingertips unconsciously traced the scepter, a complex and enigmatic light flashing in her beautiful eyes, as she murmured to herself:
"He has a secret technique that allows him to absorb spirit rings from higher-level spirit rings."
I wonder if there will be an opportunity for Xiaogang to break through his bottleneck?
Outside the Papal Palace
Salas cupped his hands in greeting to the two Title Douluos and took his leave.
Yue Guan and Gui Mei strolled leisurely to a secluded corner of a corridor.
"What should we do, old ghost? Do we really have to search for a needle in a haystack?" Yue Guan said, tugging at his old friend's sleeve.
"How can you and I openly disobey the Pope's orders?" Ghost shook off his hand, her tone equally helpless.
"Is she crazy! Doesn't she know how big the Douluo Continent is? The Heavenly Battlefield alone is full of cities and villages. We don't even know what the other side looks like. It would be a miracle if we could even find them! Anyway, I'm not going!"
Yue Guan tucked his hands into his pockets and glanced at his head, looking like a little child.
Ghost Douluo couldn't do anything about his partner's state.
After thinking for a moment, he lowered his voice and suggested, "How about we pack our bags and take advantage of the mission to travel around the continent? We've been feeling really bored staying in the Spirit Hall all these years."
Yue Guan's eyes lit up upon hearing this: "Great idea! What's the point of risking our lives to cultivate to the Title Douluo level? Isn't it just so we can live a carefree life!"
He grabbed Ghost's hand again and urged excitedly, "Hurry up, Old Ghost, let's go prepare! As for that kid, let's see how it goes. If we run into him on the road, he's unlucky; if we don't, we're lucky!"
Ghostly smiles indulgently, letting Yue Guan pull him away.
The two reached a tacit understanding and used this important task personally assigned by the Pope as an excuse for a publicly funded trip.
'This Bibi Dong is something else. Instead of looking for Tang Hao, a notorious criminal who is still at large, she's looking for some greenhorn,' they muttered to themselves.
This lousy job, let whoever wants it do it!
Time flies, and news travels like wildfire.
In the months following the Water City incident, it spread quietly at an incredible speed.
It is unknown where it first spread.
A shocking claim began to circulate in the Soul Master community on the mainland, especially within the Heaven Dou Empire:
A Soul Master's first two Soul Rings are not absolutely unable to withstand a thousand-year lifespan!
Legend has it that a mysterious young man once broke this ironclad rule, with his first and second soul rings both being purple millennium rings!
Some even claim with certainty that this young man achieved astonishing results in the Water Wave City Grand Arena, becoming a sensation.
Reactions to this rumor have varied.
The most famous academy in Water Ripples City.
When asked about the situation, Shui Liuli, the teacher leading the team from Tianshui College, simply covered her mouth and chuckled gracefully.
He said, "Oh? Is that so? I haven't seen it with my own eyes; it's probably just hearsay."
When faced with the inquiry, Ning Fengzhi, the sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, appeared even more composed.
He smiled gently and replied calmly, "The first ring in a millennium? That's unheard of. Perhaps it's just a visual effect caused by some special soul skill. There are many extraordinary people in the soul master world, and misunderstandings are common."
Meanwhile, in the Great Soul Arena of Shuilan City, there was a Soul Master named Shi who had been defeated in one move.
But after getting drunk, he repeatedly poured out his grievances to others, gesturing excitedly with red eyes:
"It's true! It's all true! I've fought him! That kid is really weird!"
His testimony, along with the support of many spectators who witnessed the challenge, significantly increased the credibility of the rumors.
The news spread further and further...
As time went by, the news gradually spread to major cities throughout the Heaven Dou Empire.
It became a topic of conversation among many Soul Masters in taverns during their leisure time.
However, most people have never seen it with their own eyes and remain deeply skeptical of this claim that overturns the theories of the Soul Master world.
Far away in Notting City, inside the Junior Soul Master Academy.
A middle-aged man with a buzz cut, dressed in an old black outfit, with a stiff face but stubborn eyes, was sitting by the window.
He held a Soul Master's tabloid in his hand, which featured exaggerated headlines reporting rumors about the "millennial first-ring genius".
He read it carefully, his brows furrowing deeper and deeper.
Finally, he slammed the newspaper down on the table.
His face revealed undisguised disdain and mockery.
"Absurd! Nonsense!"
