Douluo Continent: Awakening the Original Martial Soul at the Start.

Chapter 36 Pope Bibidon

After returning home, Li Fei stayed at home and never went out. Every day he spent training, researching soul skills and soul tools, and having meals with his parents, completely ignoring the outside world.

Inside the Spirit Hall, Bibi Dong, relying on her status as a saintess and with the support of Elders Ju and Gui, successfully ascended to the position of Pope. At this time, the news that Qian Xunji had died was also released, and the entire Spirit Master world began to be in turmoil.

Various forces began to take the opportunity to plant spies in the Spirit Hall, but they were all killed by the ruthless Bibi Dong. She then used the Elder Hall and her own strength to put pressure on the Clear Sky Sect, demanding that they hand over Tang Hao.

Finally, under pressure, Tang Xiao had no choice but to expel Tang Hao from the Haotian Sect and simultaneously close the sect, living in seclusion.

This also made all the major forces see the new Pope's methods, put away their own petty thoughts, and realize that Bibi Dong was not simple. In just two months, she suppressed the different voices within the Spirit Hall. Apart from the transcendent Hall of Offerings, it can be said that there was only one voice in the entire Spirit Hall, and that was Bibi Dong.

Inside the Papal Palace, Bibi Dong sat in the Pope's exclusive seat, legs crossed, with Chrysanthemum and Ghost Douluo standing behind her, looking down at Qian Renxue.

"I want you to impersonate Xue Qinghe, the crown prince of the Heaven Dou Empire, and take this opportunity to seize control of the entire Heaven Dou Empire, preparing for the Spirit Hall to eventually sweep across the entire continent," Bibi Dong said calmly.

"Anyway, you don't like me, and staying in the Spirit Hall will only annoy you! So I agree to go undercover, but I have one request—no, I should say, I should bring someone with me!"

Qian Renxue looked at Bibi Dong with a cold expression and a complicated look in her eyes. For two months, she had been secretly investigating the cause of Qian Xunji's death. It seemed that everything was because of Tang Hao, but all the clues pointed to the woman in front of her.

She couldn't believe it, and didn't want to face Bibi Dong again, so when Bibi Dong asked her to go undercover in the Heaven Dou royal family, she agreed without hesitation.

But at the same time, she also wanted to take Li Fei away from here. She was afraid that Li Fei would change because of Bibi Dong and become a cold-blooded person like Bibi Dong.

"Li Fei?! No way! I need to reform the Martial Soul Academy, and he's a crucial part of that reform!"

Bibi Dong immediately realized who Qian Renxue was talking about and refused outright. Even though she hadn't seen Li Fei many times in the past few years, she knew through other channels that Li Fei would borrow books from the library whenever he had free time. He read all kinds of books and had a wealth of theoretical knowledge, making him the best choice as a teacher.

She even saw a resemblance to Yu Xiaogang in Li Fei, only Li Fei was more talented and bolder.

"Why?! You have all of Li Fei's theories on soul ring over-limit absorption and meridian theory, and with your knowledge, they're definitely more complete than his. Why don't you just reform them yourself?!" Qian Renxue's face turned ugly as she angrily questioned him, but there was indeed a hint of pleading in her eyes.

"So, one year! Li Fei will train a group of people I have my eye on at the Martial Soul Academy for a year, and after that, I'll let him go with you!"

Seeing the pleading look in Qian Renxue's eyes, Bibi Dong felt a pang of pain in her heart and immediately softened. She changed her terms, saying that a year would be enough for Li Fei to help Hu Liena and the others complete their first absorption of the transcendent soul ring. After that, she and the elders would only need to give them occasional guidance.

"Fine, then I'll go back to be an undercover agent a year from now!" Qian Renxue gritted her teeth and agreed.

"Great! A year is just enough time for you to learn about politics and absorb this Cloud Illusion Soul Bone. It can help you disguise your appearance and complete your undercover mission!"

Bibi Dong nodded, stretched out her hand and produced a soul bone, which flew to Qian Renxue's front.

"You've come up with everything! It seems you've considered everything!" Qian Renxue sneered, then turned and left the Papal Palace, heading outside.

Looking at the Cloud Illusion Skull in her hand, a piece of the Angelic Armor, Qian Renxue realized that this plan might have been proposed by her grandfather, and her resentment towards Bibi Dong lessened a bit.

"Yue Guan, go to the Li family and bring Li Fei to me. Tell him I need to speak with him!"

Watching Qian Renxue's retreating figure, Bibi Dong turned to look at Ju Douluo.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Yue Guan smiled casually, then vanished in a blur.

……

Li Family Villa!

Li Fei played with the silver-white revolver, his eyes growing more and more fond of it. He took out six of the dozens of special silver bullets on the table and put them into the cylinder.

Then he put it back into his storage bracelet. The revolver was called Baiji, which could barely be considered a second-tier soul tool. With the bullets filled with black powder, it was powerful enough to kill a Soul Saint when he was not on guard.

This is one of the biggest gains of the past two months!

"Who goes there?!"

Suddenly, Li Fei assumed an attack stance and aimed at the door. Just a moment ago, he had felt a scorching aura, crystal clear, and he was absolutely certain that he hadn't misjudged it.

"As expected of someone personally invited by His Holiness the Pope, you can sense my presence with just the strength of a Soul Master." A effeminate voice rang out from outside the door, filled with surprise.

Immediately afterwards, a slight burst of soul power erupted, pushing open the door and revealing a blond-haired, somewhat effeminate person.

"Junior Li Fei greets Elder Ju!"

Upon seeing the visitor, Li Fei immediately knelt down on one knee and greeted him respectfully.

"Alright, come with me! His Holiness the Pope is waiting for you!"

Yue Guan waved his hand, signaling Li Fei to get up, and then turned and flew towards the Spirit Hall.

……

"Greetings, Your Holiness the Pope!" Inside the Papal Palace, Li Fei respectfully looked at Bibi Dong above him.

"Li Fei, the reason I've called you here is to have you become a teacher at the Martial Soul Academy and teach a few students for a year. After that, Qian Renxue will be heading to the Heaven Dou Empire, and you will go with her!" Bibi Dong said calmly.

"Yes, Your Holiness the Pope!"

Li Fei immediately thought of Hu Liena and the other members of the Spirit Hall's future golden generation. He figured they should have awakened their spirits by now, and Bibi Dong must have asked him to teach them.

Hu Liena, Xie Yue, and the others were all orphans adopted by Bibi Dong and her group. Each of them possessed at least an innate soul power level of eight, making them the backbone of the Spirit Hall in the future and the core group personally trained by Bibi Dong!

"One of the people you're teaching, Hu Liena, is my newly accepted disciple. Your goal is for her first spirit ring to be at least 800 years old, and the remaining six should be close to that as well. After you've accomplished that, I'll allow you to choose a spirit bone from the treasure vault!"

Bibi Dong offered a tempting offer: Soul Bones are among the most precious treasures in the entire Douluo Continent. Even the Spirit Hall only has a few dozen of them and wouldn't easily part with them. It's clear that she's going all out this time.

"Li Fei will do his best!" Li Fei immediately agreed, while thinking about what kind of soul bone he wanted, with the torso bone and skull being the priority.
