Hanhai City.

After more than half a year, Wu Qi and Qian Gu Chang Kong finally set foot on land again.

After obtaining the divine artifact, Qian Gu Chang Kong's strength was qualitatively enhanced, and ordinary Soul Douluos, or even Title Douluos, were no longer his match.

They were full of confidence about returning to Wuhun City to seize power!
After returning the Soul Guidance Ship to the Chai family, Wu Qi and Qian Gu Chang Kong embarked on their journey back to the Spirit Hall.

Wu Qi did not deliberately hide the fact that he had broken through to the Title Douluo level. When Chai Rong asked Ba Wei, the latter told him everything he had seen and felt along the way.

Chai Rong exclaimed, "As expected of the Spirit Hall's top genius, he has advanced to the Title Douluo level so quickly."

The Deep Sea Demon Whale King's spirit ring was not a blood-red 100,000-year spirit ring, but a brilliant golden spirit ring.

Chai Rong didn't know what this meant, but he figured that the power of this spirit ring was far greater than that of an ordinary 100,000-year spirit ring.

Generally speaking, when a Title Douluo absorbs a 100,000-year spirit ring for the ninth spirit ring, their spirit power level will jump directly to level 94. With the support of the 100,000-year spirit ring, they have a great chance to break through level 98 or even higher in the future.

Wu Qi has nine soul rings, all of which are over 100,000 years old. Such a prodigy is probably not even at level 99.

Chai Rong didn't know what kind of existence existed above level 99, but with Wu Qi's talent, he could definitely reach that level, and might even break through the legendary level 100.

With such a powerful figure in the Spirit Hall, it is destined to become the ruler of the continent in the future.

Chai Rong felt fortunate that his previous joining the Spirit Hall, while not exactly a lifeline, was far better than adding flowers to brocade.

When the Spirit Hall takes action against Seagod Island in the future, the Chai family's position will be particularly crucial. Once Seagod Island is captured, the Chai family will undoubtedly be one of the biggest contributors, and will then have the opportunity to enter the core circle.

But the prerequisite is that they must do a good job of intelligence work.

……

One month later, in Wuhun City.

When Wu Qi last returned to Wuhun City, he was just a Soul Douluo, but now he is a Title Douluo.

It's important to know that no new Title Douluo has appeared on the mainland for over a decade. The last time the Douluo Hall held a Title Douluo coronation ceremony was for Dugu Bo.

More than a decade has passed in the blink of an eye. Now, a new Title Douluo has emerged on the continent, and he is the youngest Title Douluo on the continent. The Spirit Hall will definitely want to hold a coronation ceremony for Wu Qi.

Amidst the turbulent situation on the mainland, although the Spirit Hall remains aloof, its influence has been steadily declining due to Bibi Dong's machinations.

Several years ago, the bishops of the Spirit Hall in various regions lacked proper management and subsequently began to exploit the people, causing widespread resentment. Later, a conflict broke out on the border between the two great empires, and Bibi Dong withdrew the Spirit Masters from the Spirit Halls in various regions.

This action, on the contrary, made the people cheer, as if they could only live a good life without the Spirit Hall.

Of course, without the Spirit Hall's free help in awakening martial spirits, ordinary people would have to spend money to find nobles and gentry from the surrounding villages to awaken their martial spirits.

Although it costs money, it's much better than being exploited by the Spirit Hall.

In the short term, the gentry and nobles will not show their fangs, and it will probably not be so easy for the Spirit Hall to regain its influence.

However, if Wu Qi's reputation can be spread throughout the continent during this period, it might be possible to regain the attention of the Spirit Hall.

After all, Wu Qi's age is a given. As the youngest Title Douluo on the entire continent, he is bound to be a topic of conversation among the common people.

Enshrined in the temple.

Faced with Qian Daoliu's suggestion, Wu Qi refused, saying, "Grandpa Qian, now is not the time."

He's not the only heir to the divine throne on the continent. If his strength is revealed too early, those rats lurking in the shadows will likely be terrified and flee in terror, never to show their faces again. If the goal is to unify the continent, these destabilizing factors must be nipped in the bud; none can escape.

Furthermore, Bibi Dong did not hold a coronation ceremony when she broke through to the Title Douluo level, so the outside world was unaware of her strength. For a long time, the outside world only speculated that she had broken through to the Title Douluo level.

It wasn't until the Soul Master Competition that she revealed her true strength, and it was from then on that the outside world realized just how terrifying her power was.

By concealing his true strength, Bibi Dong gained many opportunities to strike back and gain the upper hand over the years.

Otherwise, she would not have been able to seize all the power in the Papal Palace in such a short time.

Qian Daoliu had some reservations about Wu Qi's idea.

"It's good to play dumb to fool others, but if you overdo it, won't you end up like a bunch of pigs? I still think we should hold the coronation ceremony as soon as possible."

At this moment, Wu Qi's strength had surpassed that of all the other worshippers in the Hall of Worship, and even Qian Daoliu's words became much more tactful.

In the past, as long as he expressed his opinion, the worshippers would all agree, but today is different.

Qingluan Douluo spoke first: "Xiao Wu no longer needs our protection. He has grown into a true powerhouse. We, as his seniors, should respect his wishes."

As soon as he finished speaking, the other chief priests echoed his sentiments.

Qian Daoliu nodded slightly, not paying much attention. "The Spirit Hall ultimately belongs to you young people. Where this giant ship will sail in the future depends entirely on the helmsman's decision."

"As a senior and the former Pope of the Spirit Hall, I hope that the Spirit Hall can get on the right track."

"No one can know what the right path is at this stage. Only when we have all entered history will future generations judge our merits and demerits during our time in power."

"Xiao Wu, if you were to take that position, I hope you would think twice before making any decisions."

……

As dusk fell, Wu Qi and Qian Gu Chang Kong left the offering hall.

On the way, Qian Gu Chang Kong excitedly said, "Brother Wu, what Grandpa Qian said confirms that you will be the future Pope. How about it, aren't you excited?"

The Pope of the Spirit Hall is the most revered figure in the entire Spirit Master world. Anyone would be excited to have the opportunity to ascend to this position.

But even in his excitement, Wu Qi did not forget the current state of the Spirit Hall.

Under Bibi Dong's management over the years, the Spirit Hall has become riddled with holes and could easily sink into the torrent of history if it is not careful.

Before taking over the Papal Palace, Wu Qi had to work under Bibi Dong to understand how the Papal Palace operated.

Therefore, he still needs some preparation time.

Gathering his thoughts, Wu Qi gently patted the other's shoulder and said, "Chang Kong, you go back and rest first. I'm going to see my teacher."

Since Wu Qi received the divine test, the master and disciple have not sat down together for a long time to have a proper chat.

……

The ancient manor lay quietly in the hazy moonlight, its once sharp outlines softening and fading into the distance. The garden, imbued with the promise of spring, appeared dark and indistinct, like raised ridges between fields.

The old, ornately carved chair creaked and groaned with every sway of its occupants, sounding particularly jarring in the tranquil manor.

Looking at Wu Qi's current achievements, Qingluan Douluo's satisfaction was undisguised. (End of Chapter)
