Upon hearing Lord Xiao's idea, Xiao Chenyu's face showed surprise.
He never expected his father to pull such a stunt.
Moreover, he hadn't expected that Lord Xiao would have such a relationship.
If he had known that Lord Xiao had this connection, he wouldn't have needed to think so much.
Others might not know Xue Qinghe's true identity, but how could he not know it?
That is not Xue Qinghe, the eldest son of the current emperor, but Qian Renxue, the daughter of the recently deceased Pope Qian Xunji and the current Pope Bibi Dong.
With such a powerful backer, who would bother going to the Spirit Hall to gain seniority?
Of course, he wasn't sure if Qian Renxue had gone or not, but it was only a matter of time before she was switched.
Xiao Chenyu's eyes gleamed as he stared intently at his adoptive father:
"Dad's brilliant! That's a great idea!"
He was definitely not after Qian Renxue for anything; he simply thought the road was wide.
The Spirit Hall's prestige is now at its zenith after suppressing the Clear Sky Sect.
Most of the ordinary geniuses who emerge from this period are recruited by the Spirit Hall.
In other words, the competition there is the fiercest, and it's harder to get good resources.
However, the Heaven Dou royal family is different, because the geniuses in the country have switched to the Spirit Hall, so they have resources but lack geniuses.
Now that Xiao Chenyu is there, he can imagine that he will be treated very well.
"That's not all."
Lord Xiao stroked his beard, a smug look on his face, and said:
"I will also contact the Spirit Hall and secretly provide them with some information about the Crown Prince."
"ah?"
Xiao Chenyu stared at City Lord Xiao in surprise, not understanding what kind of bizarre move this was.
In his view, this behavior was absolutely unnecessary.
However, after thinking about it from Lord Xiao's perspective, Xiao Chenyu immediately understood.
"The Heaven Dou Empire is getting weaker and weaker. If possible, we should try to build a good relationship with the Spirit Hall. We can't just keep going down this path."
Lord Xiao expressed his thoughts:
"You don't need to worry about being seen as a fence-sitter. My association with the Spirit Hall was my personal choice. You just mentioned some things about the Crown Prince in your replies."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Chenyu remained silent, a warmth spreading through his heart.
To put it bluntly, Lord Xiao is still paving the way for him.
Because of his high talent, he was sent to the Heavenly Dou Royal Family to seek resources.
Because he might become a Title Douluo in the future, and the Spirit Hall has a promising future, Xiao Cheng wanted to leave him a way out so that he wouldn't be too tightly bound to the Crown Prince.
However, this would make him a double agent unilaterally planted by the Spirit Hall...
Thinking about the future, Xiao Chenyu felt exhausted, but somehow, a little bit of anticipation also arose in his heart.
Xiao Chenyu agreed to Lord Xiao's suggestion.
He couldn't tell Lord Xiao his true identity or explain his origins.
In the current situation, letting the Spirit Hall subtly know that he is loyal to the Spirit Hall will actually allow him to thrive in the Crown Prince's residence.
At least he doesn't have to worry about being inexplicably killed by the Spirit Hall as an enemy genius.
After discussing their future plans, Lord Xiao chatted for a few more minutes before leaving.
Today, we've only set a general direction. As for implementation, Xiao Chenyu knows he'll have to rely on his cheap father to get things done.
His most pressing task right now is to figure out the characteristics of his martial soul.
......
A few days later, early morning.
Squeak!
Exhausted, Xiao Chenyu walked out of the room and stretched comfortably.
After several days of exploration, he finally figured out roughly what his martial soul was.
First of all, after a Beast Spirit is attached to the body, it provides a boost to the physical body.
The enhancement from the Sky-Devouring Moon Wolf was primarily in speed, increasing it to five times its normal speed.
With his current strength, he can even leave afterimages while running.
According to his cheap father, his speed is no less than that of a level 31 Soul Master of the Power Attack type.
However, in terms of strength, the Devouring Moon Wolf did not improve much, only by about 50%.
However, just looking at this improvement, it's undoubtedly a top-tier martial soul.
Moreover, after these days of research, Xiao Chenyu also discovered the specific effects of the "Howling Moon" in the Devouring Moon Howling Wolf.
Practicing under the moonlight, his meditation efficiency was far greater than during the day, more than three times that of daytime.
This alone made Xiao Chenyu ecstatic.
What does three times mean? It means that one day of his cultivation is equivalent to two days of others' cultivation, plus his innate full soul power already makes cultivation very fast.
He could proudly say that his cultivation speed was absolutely no less than that of the Spirit Hall's Golden Generation.
As for the protagonist Tang San... to put it bluntly, without the immortal herbs, his cultivation speed would be quite average.
However, Xiao Chenyu still didn't understand the meaning of the "Devouring Heaven" in his martial soul's name.
However, he received news yesterday that his third uncle had returned and was in a hurry to go to Notting Academy to ask about his first spirit ring.
According to his cheap father, it would take 1-2 months to arrange for him to enter the Crown Prince's residence, and he didn't want to waste that time.
He was born with full soul power; only after absorbing the first soul ring could his level continue to rise.
Of course, even if you don't absorb the first spirit ring, the spirit power you cultivate will be reserved and returned after you absorb the spirit ring.
However, the cultivation speed at level 10 and level 11 is completely incomparable.
Even after absorbing a high-level spirit ring, you might not necessarily reach level 11 after breaking through.
In addition, the difference becomes even greater due to the double-speed cultivation inherent in martial souls.
Riding in the city lord's carriage, Xiao Chenyu arrived at Notting Academy without any obstacles.
