Douluo: The Peerless King Dong'er's Restarted Life

Chapter 465 If you're unwilling to perform the proper rites, then kneel down and apologize!
After all, Tang San was Yu Xiaogang's disciple, and Bibi Dong ultimately didn't want to embarrass Yu Xiaogang.

But just as she was about to speak, Chrysanthemum Douluo beside her spoke before Bibi Dong could.

"The tournament organizing committee has clearly stipulated from the beginning that one must show respect and perform appropriate etiquette when meeting the Pope. Do you think that my Spirit Hall dares not kick you out of the competition because you did not even offer a single bow?!"

Bibi Dong was surprised.

Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo, as his two subordinate generals, were not without the ability to read people's expressions; they couldn't possibly not realize that he was about to speak.

But Chrysanthemum Douluo still chose to speak first, before anyone else...

At this moment, in front of so many people, she couldn't directly rebuke Chrysanthemum Douluo; doing so would only make the Spirit Hall a laughingstock.

Just as Bibi Dong was racking her brains, everyone else had already stood up straight. This was a rule of the competition organizing committee; as long as they showed the respect due to the Pope and the Spirit Hall, that was sufficient.

Only the guardian knights of the Spirit Hall remained kneeling before Bibi Dong.

This rule was not originally in place for the Soul Master Competition.

This was added by Wang Dong'er.

Members of the Spirit Hall kneel on one knee before Bibi Dong; that's a rule within the Spirit Hall.

Bowing to the Pope is an unwritten rule.

Wang Dong'er simply took a clever trick and turned it into a real written rule.

The implication of saying "show due respect to the Pope" is that everyone should show respect to the Spirit Hall, and anyone who doesn't will be punished.

Among the crowd, only the Shrek Academy group stood out. Not only did they skip over this point when learning about the competition organizing committee's rules, but they also arrogantly regarded the salute as the etiquette of kneeling on one knee for members of the Spirit Hall.

To demonstrate their so-called arrogance, everyone from the Shrek Seven Devils to Flander and the others outside stood up straight, not even bothering to nod.

Even a peak Douluo like Sword Douluo would at least nod in respect when facing Bibi Dong, who was the Pope.

You're not even a Title Douluo, what are you being so arrogant about in front of the Spirit Hall?

To put it another way, even without explicit regulations, how many of the Soul Masters present, facing the Pope who represents the Spirit Hall, truly hadn't received even the slightest benefit from the Spirit Hall?
Chrysanthemum Douluo had already stepped out and arrived in front of the Shrek Seven Devils in an instant.

"What, don't you guys have parents or teachers to guide you?"

"If you don't even have basic respect, then kneel down and apologize!"

As he spoke, Chrysanthemum Douluo's aura surged forth, instantly landing on the Shrek Seven Devils and Flander and the others outside the square.

Flander and Liu Erlong were still able to put up a little resistance, but Yu Xiaogang was too weak and couldn't even beat the contestants. He immediately knelt down on both knees.

Bibi Dong felt heartbroken at the sight and could no longer care about the reputation of the Spirit Hall. She was about to tell Chrysanthemum Douluo to step back when she suddenly froze.

“Bibi Dong, if you dare to stop me, be careful that Yu Xiaogang, who is only interested in fame and fortune, will be turned into a pile of minced meat on the spot.”

Qian Daoliu was inside the Douluo Palace, but his voice reached Bibi Dong's ears directly.

Bibi Dong could only suppress her grief and look at Yu Xiaogang.

Outside the square, Jiangzhu looked around blankly as her teachers were forced to their knees by the pressure from Chrysanthemum Douluo.

Huang Yuan and Jing Ling, like her, did not feel any pressure.

These three were all Soul Masters from commoner backgrounds, their Spirit Souls awakened for them by the Spirit Hall. They had visited their hometown's Spirit Hall branch countless times, naturally holding it in high esteem. Although the teaching methods after Blue Tyrant Academy was renamed Shrek Academy had somewhat "demystified" the Spirit Hall in them, they still knew to show some respect for the Pope.

Flander and Liu Erlong tried to struggle, but Qin Ming and Yu Xiaogang couldn't even struggle. Instead, the more they struggled, the more they lay on the ground like dead dogs.

In the square, Chrysanthemum Douluo said calmly, "Since you are so shameless, then let everyone know just how shameless you really are."

After saying that, Chrysanthemum Douluo looked out of the square.

"Shrek Academy was originally located outside Soto City in the Kingdom of Barak, but it had neither the Spirit Hall's operating license nor the Kingdom of Barak's operating license."

"Dean Flander has been renting farmhouses to use as academy buildings and teaching areas. For a long time, he has been cheating and deceiving students by using the name of my Spirit Hall."

"Flander, if you have even a shred of conscience as a teacher, go ask the other academies. They've been leading their students in soul hunting for so many years, how many students have died?"

“You can’t provide the food, you can’t provide the supplies, and you don’t even have the teaching resources that other colleges have, yet you have extremely high requirements for the students.”

"You have to share all the profits from training students in Soul Hunting and Soul Battle. Where have you spent all the money you've saved over the years?"

Chrysanthemum Douluo recounted all of Flander's requirements for students, graduation conditions, and the claim that graduation would grant a noble title.

Anyone with a normal mind would be looking at Flander with a very strange expression at this moment.

"However, everyone has their own fate. If they were tricked into it by you, it's their own stupidity," Chrysanthemum Douluo said. "But you used the name of my Spirit Hall to cheat and swindle, even falsely claiming that the academy had produced the youngest Spirit Hall elder..."

"How come I didn't know there was such an elder in the Spirit Hall?"

"Where is that elder right now? Hmm? Answer me!"

Although Chrysanthemum Douluo looks like a woman, he is full of energy and incredibly domineering at this moment.

Outside the square, people from other colleges were all talking about it.

"This Shrek Academy is hilarious. They don't even bother to think before they start bragging."

"If a Spirit Hall elder were to emerge, would they still be like this?"

"Hey, do you remember that White Ring Soul King? Maybe he was tricked by them."

Listening to the discussions around him, Flander, who was usually incredibly shameless, was now extremely red-faced.

Liu Erlong, with her fiery temper, couldn't stand it anymore. She was already resentful of being oppressed, but then her dearest Xiaogang was crushed like a dead dog.
It was an utter disgrace, a complete humiliation, to see her beloved older brother Flanders' academy so thoroughly humiliated!

But how could a Soul Saint like her withstand the aura of a peak Douluo?
Tang Hao could beat Zhao Wuji to a pulp without even releasing his martial soul. Even if Chrysanthemum Douluo couldn't compare to Tang Hao, he was still far superior to Liu Erlong and Flander.

Seeing Liu Erlong struggling, Chrysanthemum Douluo snorted coldly and turned his attention to Liu Erlong.

"Liu Erlong, are you not convinced?"

"Then let's talk about what kind of trash you are!"

Ps:

I stayed up all night last night brainstorming the opening for my new book, and I'm still a bit dazed. I'll probably post the second update this afternoon.
