Douluo: Martial Soul Nine-Tailed Fox, I am the White Fox Emperor

Chapter 139 The Martial Soul Issue, Recruiting Tianshui Academy

Shui Miaomiao pondered for a moment. She had heard of this Holy Son before. He was born with full soul power and his martial soul was the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox, which allowed him to control all the elements in nature. Moreover, because it was a fox-type martial soul, he also possessed very strong spiritual talent.

This martial spirit can be described as all-around, without the slightest weakness.

No, it should be said that this martial spirit has no weaknesses in Hu Bai's hands.

If it were anyone else, someone who could manipulate so many elements and possessed mental talent, they would surely know a little about everything but be proficient in nothing. But this person is not like that.

As for what type of soul beast she wanted to hunt with Shui Bing'er this time, she was actually quite conflicted.

Shui Bing'er's Ice Phoenix Martial Soul is a mutation. Her original Martial Soul was an Ice Bird, but Shui Bing'er's Martial Soul reverted to its ancestral form and mutated into an Ice Phoenix.

His innate soul power also reached an astonishing level nine.

But every advantage has its disadvantage; the ice phoenix's icy power was far too strong for Shui Bing'er.

On the day his martial soul awakened, the intense ice attribute that erupted froze the surrounding area for hundreds of meters, which was extremely terrifying for a soul master who had just awakened his martial soul.

Of course, that was a burst of power during the awakening of her martial soul. If you asked Shui Bing'er to freeze a hundred meters away now, she couldn't do it.

That situation was out of control; she couldn't manage it.

In order to enable Shui Bing'er to control this power, their academy decided to have Shui Bing'er's first spirit ring absorb in the direction of control.

Control-type soul skills are much easier to control than offensive ones, a situation somewhat similar to that of Dugu Yan.

Dugu Bo was also afraid that she wouldn't be able to control the Jade Phosphorus Serpent venom in her body, so he also took the control route, which greatly suppressed the characteristics of the martial soul itself.

Shui Miaomiao thought to herself, since Hu Bai's martial soul could suppress Shui Bing'er's icy power, does that mean that Hu Bai has the ability to alleviate or even cure her condition?
Even if he has no way, the Spirit Hall, as the organization on the continent that knows the most about spirit beasts, must have a way.

However, Tianshui Academy is ultimately an academy within the Tiandou Empire. Although their academy has not explicitly joined the Tiandou Empire, it is strictly speaking under the jurisdiction of the Tiandou royal family.

After all, to establish an academy, one needs the corresponding certification and seal; otherwise, it is an unlicensed academy and cannot participate in the continent-wide elite competition.

The only entities qualified to provide this proof are the two great empires and their affiliated duchies, as well as various sects and the Spirit Hall.

After a moment's thought, Shui Miaomiao, with a nervous heart, slowly walked to Hu Bai's table and softly asked, "Are you Elder Ju Gui and His Highness the Holy Son of the Spirit Hall?"

Hu Bai and his companions, who were focused on eating, noticed someone and looked up to see the beautiful woman who had been next to Shui Bing'er.

"Yes, is there something you need?" Hu Bai finished eating the food in his mouth, wiped his mouth with a tissue, and then answered.

"It's like this, I am Shui Miaomiao, the dean of Tianshui Academy, and that is my daughter, Shui Bing'er. Her martial soul is the Ice Phoenix, but she has some difficulty controlling her power. We are also very troubled by this situation. I wonder if the elders or His Highness the Holy Son have any solutions? I can pay a fee."

As Shui Miaomiao spoke, a hint of embarrassment, or rather, awkwardness, appeared on her face. Making such a strange request on their very first meeting was incredibly difficult for her, given her status and position. Now, she had no choice but to take a gamble.

Ice Phoenix?
Yue Guan and Gui Mei Ling Yuan exchanged a glance and whispered, "I didn't expect Tianshui Academy to produce such a genius girl this time. Her talent is already no less than Xie Yue and Nana's. It's a pity she's not from my Spirit Hall."

Ghost and Spirit Kite nodded slightly. Ghost said, "Actually, they could also be from our Spirit Hall. They need our help right now, and our Spirit Hall has now established itself as a nation. If they are willing to join us, with Xiaobai's abilities, we should be able to help them resolve the issue."

Ling Yuan: "Indeed, although our Spirit Hall has branches all over the continent, those places are not our own territory. If we can take this opportunity to merge Tianshui City, where Tianshui Academy is located, into the Spirit Empire, that would be great."

Tianshui Academy is one of the most outstanding advanced academies in the Tiandou Empire, and because it is also one of the more powerful of the five elemental academies, it is quite famous throughout the entire continent.

Tianshui City, where Tianshui Academy is located, is one of the more powerful cities in the Tiandou Empire, and its city lord is a powerful Soul Douluo.

Yue Guan and Gui Mei thought for a moment. This city lord seemed to be the husband of the dean of Tianshui Academy. Wait, isn't that the husband of the person in front of them?
As the lord of a city, he was granted a title by the Heavenly Dou royal family and apparently possessed the rank of earl. This city was actually the territory he was granted.

Hu Bai and Yue Guan exchanged glances. Yue Guan immediately understood Hu Bai's thoughts and said, "Dean Tianshui, you probably don't know this, but not long ago, my Spirit Hall announced at the Holy Son's inauguration ceremony that we would establish the Spirit Empire."

"Your Highness, the Holy Son, surely has a way to resolve the issue of your daughter's martial soul. However, we also have a condition: we hope that you can bring Tianshui Academy, and even Tianshui City, to join our Martial Soul Empire."

The Martial Soul Empire?!
Shui Miaomiao's expression changed. She never expected that the Spirit Hall would reveal their ambition to dominate the entire continent so quickly.

She had initially thought that since the former pope had only been dead for a few years, the Spirit Hall should still be in the process of gradually building its power. How could it have suddenly exploded? Weren't they afraid of attacks from the two great empires?
Moreover, isn't the Spirit Hall afraid that malicious people might try to harm Hu Bai, the Holy Son, by doing this?

But suddenly, she realized that her idea was a bit ridiculous. She didn't even look at who the three people around Hu Bai were—three Title Douluos!

She didn't know Ling Yuan, but she knew Chrysanthemum Ghost Douluo, and the two of them were already quite famous on the mainland.

What they are famous for is not their strength, but their Martial Soul Fusion Technique!

An extremely unique spatial confinement domain soul skill!

"Oh, right, don't be surprised yet. There's one more thing. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School has announced that it has joined the Spirit Empire and become an affiliated sect of the Spirit Hall."

My suggestion to have Tianshui Academy join the Spirit Hall was actually out of a desire to cultivate talent. Your daughter has excellent talent, and if the hidden dangers brought about by the Spirit Hall can be completely resolved, her future strength will be immeasurable.

Moreover, those two elders of my Spirit Hall might even accept your daughter as their disciple.

"Alright, go back and think about it. You can give us your answer after dinner." Yue Guan waved his hand, signaling him to leave.

He said everything he should say, and even things he shouldn't have said, employing both kindness and severity. If the dean of Tianshui Academy is a smart person, he would know how to choose.
