Douluo: The blue phoenix cries loudly, and the wind whistles through the air

Outside Wuhun City.

As agreed, after attending Wu Qi's coronation ceremony, Feng Xiaotian and the others immediately set off for the far north to train.

Wu Qi was busy with official duties and could not get away for the time being, so he sent off the group through the vast sky.

"Take care, everyone. Angkor and I are not without help in the Papal Palace, so there won't be any trouble," Qian Gu Chang Kong said with a smile.

Unlike Bibi Dong, Wu Qi was born into the Hall of Offerings, and the strength of the Hall's experts surpassed that of any elder. With the support of the Hall of Offerings, the other elders naturally couldn't cause any trouble.

It can be said that since Wu Qi took office, the high-ranking members of the Spirit Hall have united as one and are no longer as opposed to each other as before.

With the help of Feng Xiaotian and others, the backlog of government affairs in the Papal Palace has been dealt with these past few days, which will make things much easier for Wu Qi in the future.

Feng Xiaotian and the others said their goodbyes without saying much, and then got into the carriage and set off.

He couldn't rest for a thousand years; he needed to complete Wu Qi's instructions and summon the relevant personnel to the Papal Palace.

Zhao Chenggong and Lou Gao were the first to be affected. The development of soul tool technology was Wu Qi's top priority, so naturally, arrangements were made for them first.

Inside the Papal Palace.

Looking at Wu Qi on the high seat, Lou Gao and Zhao Chenggong had complicated expressions.

When they first met Wu Qi, they only thought he was a high-ranking member of the Spirit Hall. They never expected that he would become the leader of the Spirit Hall in the blink of an eye.

Because of their special identities and their secret research on soul tools, neither of them attended the previous coronation ceremony; at the same time, both of them were research fanatics who locked themselves in the laboratory all day and were not sensitive to changes in the outside world.

Wu Qi asked, "Master Zhao, how's the soul tool technology training going lately?"

At this point, Zhao Chenggong's smile became undisguised.

Although Lou Gao is old and lacks theoretical knowledge of soul tools, don't forget that he is the foremost of the three great master craftsmen on the continent.

Forging soul tools is not much different from forging high-grade ironware. Lou Gao already had a high level of skill in forging parts. After learning about the energy storage device of soul tools, he made rapid progress. In just a few months of study, he became a level three soul tool master.

If we disregard whether the foundation is solid, the building's height already reaches the threshold of a level 5 Soul Master.

However, the further along the process, the more complex the creation of soul tools became, and the arrangement of the energy storage devices was a particularly troublesome problem, which temporarily slowed down Lou Gao's progress.

Besides, Lou Gao's disciples have achieved quite a lot.

Wu Qi nodded slightly and continued, "President Lou Gao, I have fulfilled my promise."

He paused, then added, "From today onwards, let's rename the Blacksmith Association the Soul Tool Association. President Lou Gao, you should break through to the Soul Master level as soon as possible, and then work with Master Zhao to research more advanced Soul Tools."

"Furthermore, you should train a group of talents capable of independently producing third-tier and lower-tier soul tools as soon as possible. In the future, I will establish a soul tool department at the Spirit Hall Academy and gradually promote it throughout the entire continent."

After spending these days in contact with Zhao Chenggong, Lou Gao's mindset has undergone a significant change.

Originally, Lou Gao would only pass on his skills to his apprentices, but when he remembered that the Soul Guidance Device technology had disappeared from the Douluo Continent, he realized that this method of inheritance was not advisable.

If soul tool technology can be popularized across the continent, it will not only not disappear in the future, but will also create countless geniuses in the field, leading to the vigorous development of soul tool technology. At the same time, for the soul master (formerly blacksmith) group, this will undoubtedly be a leap in status.

Lou Gao had no reason to refuse and immediately said, "Your Holiness, I will personally oversee this matter. However, I may be lacking in teaching skills. My disciple, Siyu, is quite eloquent and has recently trained several Level 2 Soul Masters in the Blacksmith Association. If Your Holiness needs a teacher specializing in Soul Tools, Siyu would be a good fit."

Wu Qi nodded in response: "Professional matters should naturally be left to professionals. As for the teachers, you can make your own arrangements and try to train a group of qualified teachers within six months. Then, I will open pilot courses within the Spirit Hall."

"The students of the academy have no background in blacksmithing, so you need to prepare your lessons in advance to avoid any mistakes."

After arranging the soul tool matter, Wu Qi couldn't rest yet.

After Zhao Chenggong and Lou Gaogang left, the two titled Douluo, Serpent Spear and Porcupine, along with Hu Liena, arrived at the Papal Palace.

If Qian Renxue were to inherit the papacy instead of Wu Qi, then the two titled Douluo, Serpent Spear and Porcupine, would become the guardian Douluo of the Papal Palace.

These two had grown up alongside Qian Renxue since childhood and shared a close relationship. However, in order to properly settle Chrysanthemum Ghost Douluo and stabilize the situation within the Spirit Hall, Wu Qi had no choice but to negotiate with Qian Renxue and relinquish the position of Guardian Douluo of the Judgment Hall to them.

In this way, Serpent Spear and Porcupine Douluo became the biggest "victims," ​​and Wu Qi summoned them here to give them appropriate compensation.

"Greetings, Your Holiness the Pope." The five men bowed in unison.

The Serpent Spear and the Porcupine Douluo looked at Wu Qi with unusually complex expressions.

Qian Renxue explained Wu Qi's arrangement to the two of them, saying it wasn't to deliberately exclude them, but rather to balance the interests within the Spirit Hall.

However, since their interests had been balanced out, they harbored some resentment. But they all knew Wu Qi's strength, so they naturally didn't show it, only feeling that their own strength was insufficient to squeeze into the core circle.

Wu Qi glanced at the five people, sighed softly, and said, "Elders, I know you have some grievances in your hearts."

The two were alarmed and quickly said, "We have no complaints."

Wu Qi waved his hand and continued, "The reason I summoned the five of you here is naturally because I have new arrangements for you."

"I intend to form a cabinet, with the five of you assisting me in handling official business within the Papal Palace."

Wu Qi is not like Bibi Dong. His identity is recognized by all the high-ranking members of the Spirit Hall, so he doesn't need to do everything personally in order to keep power firmly in his hands like Bibi Dong.

Wu Qi is still young, and he will need to spend most of his time cultivating. Since his position is unshakeable, it wouldn't be bad to find some helpers for himself.

While Qian Gu Chang Kong's abilities are certainly impressive, he still needs to cultivate them, and we shouldn't burden him with too much responsibility.

Hu Liena and the other two had studied political affairs under Bibi Dong and possessed rich experience. To support their training, Wu Qi additionally added the Serpent Spear and Porcupine Douluo.

These two had worked with Qian Renxue in the Heavenly Dou Imperial Palace and accumulated rich experience in handling government affairs. With them at the head, and Hu Liena and the other two as assistants, this cabinet team would be perfectly fine.

The Serpent Spear and the Porcupine Douluo were extremely surprised.

Although the cabinet was a new institution established by Wu Qi, its name alone tells us that it was only responsible to Wu Qi.

Knowing his opportunity had arrived, Serpent Spear Douluo hurriedly asked, "Your Holiness, what is the role and duty of the Cabinet?" (End of Chapter)
