After this ordeal, the Soul Douluo who was demoted to a purple-robed bishop became much more obedient.
When faced with a problem, they first shift the blame to their superiors, then avoid taking credit for themselves and making things difficult for themselves. They become increasingly adept at passing the buck, but that's another story.
After calming the frightened students, the dean and Wei Ming, the teacher in charge of Elite Class 3, stood respectfully in the middle of the VIP reception room. Eight steps up, in the middle of the three main seats, Bibi Dong, dressed in an elegant long dress, told the two of them the truth of the incident in detail.
Her authoritative gaze fell upon them as she stated, "This is the publicly announced outcome. The faculty and students involved will be compensated by the college. Do you have any further questions?"
Wei Ming hesitated for a moment, considering that he now had more than just Qian Yuelong to deal with, and tentatively asked, "Your Holiness, will the Saintess's newly acquired domain get out of control in the future?"
When Bibi Dong recounted what had happened, she specifically mentioned that the Soul Master class she was currently teaching actually included Hu Liena, the personal disciple of the esteemed Pope, as well as Xie Yue and Yan, whom she also placed high hopes on.
Unexpectedly, Wei Ming, who had gathered so many elites under his command, still felt some pressure.
To be on the safe side, it's essential to ask detailed questions.
We must be vigilant to prevent such out-of-control incidents from happening again.
Bibi Dong remained strangely silent for two seconds, then replied nonchalantly, "You can ask the Holy Maiden yourself after she wakes up." Because she didn't know either.
The middle-aged dean, with his shrewdness, let out a sigh of embarrassment, offering a way out: "Anyway, no one was really hurt, and the academy's facilities weren't damaged. I think the Holy Maiden should still have a good chance. Besides, it's a new skill; you don't have experience the first time, you get used to it the second time, and you'll be familiar with it by the third time."
The dean looked at Wei Ming's cold face and began to brainwash him in various ways:
"Wei Ming, don't look so down. This is actually a good thing! The Holy Maiden has such a high level of domain talent at such a young age. Her future achievements are bound to be limitless! If it were me, I would be happy to lose control for a bit and then control the domain without harming my side at all!"
He has no objections as long as the academy is not damaged and the students are not truly harmed.
Wei Ming silently stared at the dean who was winking at him.
You're not the one who's taking on these hot potatoes, so of course you're making it sound easy.
Bibi Dong's lips curled into a barely perceptible smile, and she concluded with a final tap:
"You two can discuss this matter later. You are both highly valued by the Spirit Hall, and I believe you won't let me down, right?"
Dean Wei Ming's expression turned serious, and he bowed his head in agreement.
After returning to the Martial Soul Holy City, Bibi Dong also convened a meeting.
First, he publicly criticized the cardinal who deceived his superiors and bullied his subordinates, demoting him and sending him to the Hall of Punishments. Then he gave a warning to the other guys who had their own agendas.
Faced with Bibi Dong's perfunctory approach of concealing the true information even from her own people, the people from different factions dared not be angry or speak out.
Having received accurate information about the Spirit Hall Academy, and having overheard that the Papal Palace was unusually lively, they found the Offering Hall bustling with activity as well.
“Brother, it seems that Bibi Dong still cares about the Holy Maiden to some extent.” The Second Elder, Golden Crocodile Douluo, looked up at Qian Daoliu at the head of the table. “At least we can rest assured that Bibi Dong will not harm the Holy Maiden.”
Knowing about Qian Daoliu's terrible family affairs, Golden Crocodile Douluo spoke with a double meaning.
Qian Daoliu closed his eyes, tacitly accepting Golden Crocodile Douluo's statement.
The Fifth Elder, Guangling Douluo, who had been sitting on his chair with his face propped up, stood up. His white robe swept across the chair, and he stretched comfortably with both hands raised: "Oh, I think all your worries are unnecessary."
He opened his left eye, revealing a heterochromatic pupil—one blue and one brown—and said with a half-smile, "The little saintess has quite a few secrets. Even if she clashes head-on with Bibi Dong, I bet the little one won't be the one who suffers."
That's true.
The few worshippers present secretly agreed.
The Seventh Elder, Demon-Slaying Douluo, sitting on another chair, looked at the now taller, upright Light Feather Douluo with a complex expression, tinged with a hint of envy.
"Guangling, have you grown taller?"
Guangling Douluo's eyes lit up, and he raised his hand to gesture: "Seventh Brother, you noticed? I have indeed grown taller! I've grown five centimeters! Now I'm 174 cm tall."
Due to certain reasons, his appearance and height have been fixed between adolescence and youth. For decades, he has not grown taller no matter what drugs or other means he uses. A genuine joy appeared on the handsome face of Guangling Douluo.
After reaching the Title Douluo realm, the Demon-Slaying Douluo, whose height and appearance are permanently fixed like the Light Feather Douluo, is a little envious.
He also practiced the purple-level body-tempering method issued by the Holy Maiden, so why didn't he grow taller?
"fine."
Finally, the Demon-Slaying Douluo offered his dry congratulations.
Guangling Douluo was immediately satisfied.
Qian Yuelong was completely unaware of the commotion in Martial Soul Holy City; she was currently sleeping soundly on her single bed in her dormitory.
When Hu Liena returned to her dormitory and saw Qian Yuelong sleeping soundly on the bed, seemingly oblivious to everything, she breathed a sigh of relief. However, when she thought of the private conversation her teacher had with her before leaving the academy, her expression suddenly became complicated.
"Nana, since you are a disciple I trust, there are some things I should tell you in advance, so you can be prepared."
"—Qian Yuelong is actually the Holy Maiden of the Spirit Hall. Before her cultivation breaks through to the Soul King level, her identity will be kept secret to ensure her growth. But in the end, she belongs to the group that will stand at the top of the Spirit Hall."
"—While I place high hopes on you, don't be discouraged by your inability to catch up with Qian Yuelong in terms of cultivation. Her martial soul is a mutated martial soul. Although it didn't awaken into the legendary six-winged angel martial soul, it inherited the initial level 20 soul power of a six-winged angel martial soul, giving it a head start over other geniuses from birth."
"Since you're roommates, spend more time with her and try to get along well. Maybe in the future, you can become true, loyal partners."
Bibi Dong's meaningful words lingered in his mind.
Perhaps some people are born to be the chosen ones. While others are still struggling to climb, they have already reached the top and are looking down on those who are desperately trying to climb.
but
Memories of their daily interactions flashed through her mind. Hu Liena's gaze was gentle yet firm. Her desire to become stronger remained unwavering, and her attitude towards Qian Yuelong did not change.
Both publicly and privately, having a companion like Yuelong is more beneficial than harmful; it's an opportunity that most people would rather die than have.
It's just that our soul power cultivation is one realm lower, right?
She can reach the Soul Master level this year!
Hu Liena lowered her head, tucked the blanket around Qian Yuelong, and then returned to her own single bed. She took off her shoes and socks, sat cross-legged, and entered a meditative state.
—A side note—
Today is a sad day for Mo Li. I got stuck on the second day of the new game. Does anyone understand? (tears)
