Douluo Continent: Peerless Angel Qian Renxue.

Chapter 89 The Great Injustice: Zhongli Wu

Next, the three of them were tested for strength. There's not much to say about this, except that Lin Jiayi's mouth opened a little wider.

He was once again convinced that although these three girls seemed to be related by connections, they were definitely skilled cultivators.

And then, thankfully, Shen Yuanyi didn't push me outside the door just now, otherwise I would have been punched through the stomach.

The final reaction test piqued the little devil's interest. He'd learned from a casual chat with Shen Yuanyi that there was a game called "Whack-a-Mole" in Mingdu.

So the little devil imagined those constantly lit-up little squares as members of some rat sect, and he could hit them every time.

-

Have you seen those people?

Inside Mingde Hall, an obese old man asked another overweight middle-aged man a question.

Then, the middle-aged man nodded blankly, as if he had been subjected to the electric chair, one of the ten most cruel tortures of the Sun Moon Empire.

Jing Hongchen was clearly dissatisfied with Lin Jiayi's reaction, and with a flick of her wrist, she lashed him with a whip that seemed to appear out of nowhere.

"Ah, I've met you, I've met you, Master. Sorry, I was just spacing out." Lin Jiayi wiped his drool.

"Why do you look like you've seen a ghost?" Jing Hongchen was clearly getting impatient.

"Master! My Master!" Lin Jiayi seemed to imagine himself being punched through the stomach, and suddenly lunged forward and hugged Jing Hongchen's short legs.

"Those newcomers are inhuman! You didn't see it with your own eyes... those stats are beyond what normal people can have! It's like a soul beast undergoing a complete transformation!"

Jing Hongchen lifted his short legs and gently kicked Lin Jiayi away. He was a Title Douluo of over level ninety and the youngest level nine Soul Master in Mingde Hall, so he didn't use much force, otherwise he could have kicked this meatball so hard that his fat would have splattered everywhere.

Lin Jiayi's cultivation level wasn't high. Like most Soul Masters in the Sun Moon Empire, his Soul Emperor cultivation was even achieved through drug use. He only managed to get the position of Dean of Students because he was good at managing students and teachers.

"Anything else?" Jing Hongchen asked.

"And...and..." Lin Jiayi's face showed horror, "I suspect that girl named Xiaoxue possesses a soul bone of extremely high quality! At least fifty thousand years old!"

"A soul bone? Extremely high quality? Over 50,000 years old?" Jing Hongchen frowned.

"You know about those soul-guided testing devices used for admission, you know about them!" Lin Jiayi's face showed horror again, "But during the test, they almost exploded! They exploded!"

Jing Hongchen was also annoyed by Lin Jiayi's style of repeating a sentence twice in a row. The key point was that this was not a stutter, but Lin Jiayi felt that this could show his importance and attract other people's attention.

"If you keep dawdling like this, pack your things and get out! Don't work at the academy anymore!"

"Yes...yes..." Lin Jiayi quickly finished reporting the matter by repeating the same words.

"Is that so?" Jing Hongchen was surprised as he listened. He had only received a message from the Crown Prince saying that several people with connections wanted to enter the academy. He hadn't paid much attention to it at first, but a day later, the Supreme Leader of the State Religion came in person!

This forced him to take it seriously, so today he asked Lin Jiayi to personally receive these people.

His chubby face jiggled as he looked at the data report and analysis that had been presented to him, lost in thought.

"Master Hongchen, please take a look at me." Suddenly, a middle-aged man dressed in black robes appeared beside Jing Hongchen.

Jing Hongchen was not frightened by the figure and casually handed him the three reports.

Then, he glanced at Lin Jiayi and said, "You've worked hard. You can go back to your work now. Remember to look after these three, but don't go overboard, just make sure they're safe."

"Yes! Yes! Hall Master!" The sudden appearance of another person clearly startled Lin Jiayi. Jing Hongchen told him to leave quickly, meaning that the following conversation was not something he could participate in.

After Lin Jiayi left, the middle-aged man in black robes glanced at the reports and said in a low voice, "Is this the person Mother asked you to take care of?"

"Yes, I will naturally take His Majesty Ye's instructions to heart. But how did His Majesty Ye find these geniuses? Does the Imperial Preceptor know?"

The visitor is Zhongli Wu, the current leader of the Holy Spirit Cult and Ye Xishui's son!

Zhongli Wu shook his head: "This little girl surnamed Shen was picked up by my mother before, and the hall master should have heard of her. As for the other two, to be honest, I don't know too much about them either." "To be honest, after my mother passed the position of sect leader to me, she rarely cared about the affairs of the sect and spent most of her time with Long Bo."

Zhongli Wu didn't tell Jing Hongchen the truth. Clearly, the relationship between the Holy Spirit Sect and the Mingde Hall wasn't so close that they could be inseparable or play games together. It's normal for them to keep some things to themselves.

After Ye Xishui brought Qian Renxue and the others back, she mentioned this matter to Zhong Liwu, but told him that they were people from the Offering Hall, because they were not considered native talents of the Holy Spirit Sect.

As for why Ye Xishui didn't mention much to Zhong Liwu, only she herself probably knows the reason.

"It seems these young ladies are talents discovered by His Majesty Ye." Jing Hongchen didn't seem too concerned. "Since the State Religion has cooperated with us for so many years, we naturally have to show our sincerity as well."

"Thank you for your trouble, Hall Master. However, there is one more thing that my mother asked me to discuss with you again," Zhongli Wu said. "In about a year, there will be that... the next Continental Advanced Soul Master Tournament. My mother hopes to secure appropriate playing positions for these children."

Jing Hongchen nodded: "Actually, His Highness the Crown Prince also mentioned this matter to me. Our academy has always had a starting team of seven and a reserve team. Adding a few more people is not a problem at all."

"I hope they can get a chance to play," Zhongli Wu said slowly.

Jing Hongchen pondered for a moment: "Regarding this... to be honest, it's not that I'm not trying to save face for you and Ye Mian, but you should also know the prestige of this competition on the mainland. The academy's starting team of seven has actually been cooperating with each other for several years. Making a hasty change might cause some problems."

Actually, Xu Tianran had also told him that he must give Qian Renxue and the others a chance to appear. Jing Hongchen was puzzled at the time, but seeing Xu Tianran's somewhat displeased expression, he didn't say anything more.

At this moment, Zhongli Wu also mentioned this to him, so it would be a good opportunity to try and get some benefits from the other party.

Zhongli Wu waved his hand, and a round pill appeared in his hand: "This is our sect's Spirit Ascension Pill, which can help the Red Dust Hall Master increase the age of one of his soul rings by five hundred years, in exchange for a spot in the competition."

Jing Hongchen was shocked. He had indeed thought about getting some benefits from Zhongli Wu, but he didn't expect this guy to pull such a big stunt right from the start!

He naturally knew a little about the Holy Spirit Cult's secrets; Zhongli Wu's own spirit ring color was quite unique. The Spirit Ascension Pill they were offering could only enhance a single spirit ring for five hundred years, but the fact that they were even offering it showed their sincerity… what a terrible traitor.

However, he still feigned reluctance, saying, "Well then, Grand Preceptor, I will give them some training in teamwork. If the results are good, I will accept your gift."

"That's your business. I haven't taken back any gifts I've given out." The big traitor seemed quite pleased with himself. In his view, this thing was essentially held hostage by Jing Hongchen, and he had no choice but to agree.

The wronged man thought for a moment and felt that he hadn't given enough, so he added another sentence.

"Also, there's one more thing I want to remind you: it's best not to give the Spirit Ascension Pill to your grandchildren, as their mental strength might not be able to withstand it. Unless you want to turn them into idiots."

Jing Hongchen suppressed her joy and solemnly said, "Understood. Don't worry, I'll let you know as soon as I have any news."

The character Zhongli Wu doesn't have many scenes in the original work.

In the original work, the true leader of the Holy Spirit Cult is Ye Xishui, and Xu Tianran is supported by Ye Xishui, and can even be considered to have been promoted to power.

Ye Xishui orchestrated the split between the two dragons, then bound the Dark Holy Dragon to her side. Although she did indeed like Long Xiaoyao, it was fortunate that she didn't like the hypocrite Mu En.

We'll leave Moon for later, to be thoroughly interrogated.

As for Zhongli Wu, well, he is a level 98 Super Douluo with a Death God Puppet stronger than Ye Xishui's, and all his spirit rings are black and over 10,000 years old. Logically speaking, he should be able to unleash the power of a Limit Douluo at level 98.

Then, he failed to encircle and annihilate Yan Shaozhe, failed to encircle and annihilate Di Tian, ​​was severely injured by Huo Yuhao, and was eventually killed.

He seems like a rich second-generation heir in the cultivation world, with a powerful mother and godfather, but lacking ambition. Of course, there are reasons for this, which will be explained later.
