From the Soul Motion Machine onwards, the Mechanized Douluo

Chapter 291 The Youth Soul Master Competition! Begins! [Seeking Definition! Seeking Votes!]

After receiving Chen Hong's guidance, Dugu Bo thanked Chen Hong gratefully and then returned to his residence to try to use Chen Hong's method to transfer the toxins in his body to his head soul bone.

Then, Dugu Bo discovered that transferring all the toxins in his body into the soul bone was simpler than he had imagined.

It was as if this special toxin had found a home in Dugu Bo's head bone.

Chen Hong explained that in terms of energy expression logic, soul bones are basically the same as soul rings, and soul rings can be integrated into your martial soul, which means that soul rings and martial souls are highly homologous. In other words, when Dugu Bo transferred the toxins in his body to his soul bone, he was actually transferring the toxins into his martial soul.

Later, Dugu Bo, this chosen one, will eventually awaken the true fangs of the Azure Serpent King and condense an extremely terrifying martial soul venom. Of course, that's all for later. Right now, Dugu Bo is still in the initial stage, and Chen Hong is also busy studying the data of various immortal herbs in the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well Valley.

Meanwhile, the Youth Soul Master Competition on the Douluo Continent outside was becoming more and more exciting. Finally, two months later, Soul Master teams from all over the continent gathered in Wuhun City to participate in the Youth Soul Master Competition organized by the Spirit Hall.

Among the popular teams in this Youth Soul Master Competition are Shrek Team from Soto City, Royal Team from Heaven Dou City, and the Golden Generation of Spirit Hall.

"Nana, there are many variables in this Soul Master Competition. Are you confident of victory?"

In the Papal Palace of Wuhun City, the elegant Pope Bibi Dong, after meeting the Wuhun Hall's Golden Team, kept the tall and charming Hu Liena behind.

"Originally, I wanted to bestow a few soul bones, but due to the obstruction of the elders, I could only add them to the champion's reward in the Soul Master Competition. Humph! A bunch of stubborn old fogies!" When Bibi Dong spoke of those Spirit Hall elders, her eyes immediately darkened.

"Thank you, Teacher, for doing so much for your disciple!" Hu Liena first bowed respectfully to Bibi Dong, then skipped over to her, smiling as she massaged Bibi Dong's shoulders. "Don't worry, Teacher! Your disciple will definitely not let you down!"

"Sigh," Bibi Dong looked at Hu Liena, who was becoming increasingly unafraid of her and even joking around with her, and for a moment felt a little unfamiliar. Hu Liena's position as a saintess came earlier and easier than Bibi Dong had expected.

Initially, about four or five years ago, Bibi Dong merely mentioned within the Spirit Hall that she wanted to list Hu Liena as the Spirit Hall's Holy Maiden. However, she encountered unprecedented resistance. Ultimately, Bibi Dong conceded to the opposing elders, only granting Hu Liena the status of a candidate for Spirit Hall Holy Maiden.

The elders of the Spirit Hall thought about it and realized that having a candidate for the Holy Maiden of the Spirit Hall wasn't entirely unacceptable. After all, given that the Holy Maiden was not making a public appearance, the Spirit Hall did need to give the other Spirit Masters a reassuring explanation.

So, while Bibi Dong was still arguing with the elders, Hu Liena traveled to Soto City and discovered the SSR card, the Tech Merchant Guild. Even though the Tech Merchant Guild was still weak at the time, it still secured Hu Liena's position as a candidate for Saintess. Furthermore, since Pope Bibi Dong did not bestow titles upon other candidates, Hu Liena ultimately became the de facto Saintess of the Spirit Hall as a candidate for Saintess.

The elders of the Spirit Hall were certainly unhappy about this. Their original intention was that it wouldn't be a big deal for Bibi Dong to bring in a few more candidates; after all, once that prince returned, anyone with a good eye in the Spirit Hall would know where to stand. But instead, she only brought in this one? What was the meaning of this? Were they being made a fool of?

Therefore, the elders frequently confronted Bibi Dong, causing her trouble. Even though Bibi Dong was the Pope, she still suffered quite a bit. However, because the Technology Chamber of Commerce was so successful and extremely pro-Spirit Hall, the Spirit Hall elders exclaimed, "Isn't this the property of some Spirit Hall elder?"

As the Technology Chamber of Commerce grew stronger, Hu Liena, as an angel investor in the Chamber, gradually gained the tacit approval of the elders of the Spirit Hall.

The elders had considered contacting the Technology Chamber of Commerce to persuade them not to get involved with Bibi Dong and Hu Liena. However, they couldn't find a way to contact the 'Spirit Hall representative' of the Technology Chamber of Commerce. They could reach the chairman, but he had made it clear that he had no involvement with the Spirit Hall. Finally, they asked someone to relay a message to Chen Hong, the Spirit Hall representative, and the reply they received was, 'The Technology Chamber of Commerce is a grateful force, firmly and forever maintaining a friendly relationship with Ms. Hu Liena.'

For Chen Hong at that time, it would be a fool to side with gangs he'd never even heard of if he didn't have the support of the Papacy. Besides, Chen Hong wasn't interested in wasting his time on such matters; he was a staunch Papacy member, and that was the best way to avoid any trouble once and for all.

Finally, due to the strong push from the Science and Technology Chamber of Commerce, the opposition within the Spirit Hall to appointing Hu Liena as the Holy Maiden gradually diminished.

In short, Hu Liena gave the Science and Technology Chamber of Commerce an opportunity to develop, and the Science and Technology Chamber of Commerce has successfully become the most dazzling star in Hu Liena's life.

This made Hu Liena's situation in the Spirit Hall much better. Especially after Qian Daoliu started to come into contact with Chen Hong, the people in the Hall of Worship were all preoccupied with Chen Hong and had no time to interfere with Bibi Dong. As a result, Bibi Dong and Hu Liena, master and disciple, lived a very comfortable and carefree life in the Spirit Hall.

"Well, I'm not worried about the others, but that Royal Fighting Team, that Nine Heart Begonia Ye Lingling who's so strange from head to toe, is not someone to be trifled with."

Bibi Dong pinched Hu Liena's soft cheek, her eyes filled with affection, and said, "She's gotten involved with that Hong boy. According to my investigation, Ye Lingling seems to be the childhood betrothal arranged for Chen Hong by Ning Lu, the wife of the president of the Technology Chamber of Commerce. However, with the rise of the Technology Chamber of Commerce, this claim has not been brought up again. But in my opinion, the two families are still very close, and they must still have close ties."

Bibi Dong looked down at the slender girl leaning on her shoulder and sighed inwardly. Something was wrong with Ye Lingling. Whose Nine Heart Begonia could charge into battle and dominate the battlefield?

And it also has the Soul Ring Advancement Technique: Ring Detonation?
