From the Soul Motion Machine onwards, the Mechanized Douluo

With the Spirit Hall's Youth Soul Master Competition over, Chen Hong began preparing to further plunder the Spirit Hall's knowledge reserves.

However, when parting ways with Ning Fengzhi and the others, Ning Fengzhi privately asked Chen Hong a rather sensitive question:

"Nephew, tell me, why did the Spirit Hall allow the Clear Sky Douluo to leave?"

Ning Fengzhi voiced his doubts. In his opinion, even if Tang Hao could walk, he would crawl!

As it turned out, Tang Hao was unharmed and swaggered out, while the humiliated Pope Bibi Dong continued the award ceremony as if nothing had happened. She offered no explanation whatsoever for Ghost Douluo's capture of Xiao Wu or Haotian Douluo's overwhelming power.

The matter of Ghost Douluo capturing Xiao Wu was actually considered normal by Soul Masters. The Spirit Hall had not done anything wrong; after all, she was a 100,000-year-old transformed Soul Beast, so it was quite normal.

However, the fact that Haotian Douluo overwhelmed all the heroes is worth mentioning.

"Shouldn't Uncle Ning already have the answer he wants to believe in his heart?" Chen Hong did not answer Ning Fengzhi's question directly, but instead asked Ning Fengzhi a question in return.

People are always willing to believe what they want to believe, aren't they?

Ning Fengzhi raised an eyebrow upon hearing this, then said helplessly, "From the perspective of the sect, what I'm most willing to believe is that the Spirit Hall is all bark and no bite and dares not provoke the Clear Sky Douluo. But a normal person's rationality tells me that something is not right about this matter."

Chen Hong shrugged and said, "It's normal that something feels off. Besides, isn't the answer you want to believe in your heart quite convincing? If you can't improve the intelligence of the imaginary enemy in your heart as much as possible, then Uncle Ning's thinking is not bad."

Ning Fengzhi's expression darkened: "Raise the estimate for the Pope?"

Seeing that Ning Fengzhi had successfully grasped the key point, Chen Hong smiled and said, "As long as you don't underestimate our Spirit Hall Pope, you will be able to discover what it means to be a woman who is just as capable as any man."

The meaning behind Bibi Dong's actions was simple: faced with the composure of Qian Daoliu and the others, Bibi Dong chose to play along, directly using the prestige of the Spirit Hall to enhance Tang Hao's powerful reputation.

Although Bibi Dong wanted to drag the Spirit Hall down with her, she was also willing to accept it if it could make the Spirit Hall great again and Bibi Dong wouldn't have to die in defeat.

Therefore, Bibi Dong harbored ambitions to make the Spirit Hall great again, but she also understood that at the current stage, the Spirit Hall's prestige did not bring them any obvious benefits. On the contrary, the stronger the Spirit Hall seemed to be, the more uneasy it would make the two surrounding empires feel.

Therefore, in order to appease the increasingly tense situation on the Douluo Continent, Pope Bibi Dong simply chose to play along, sacrificing the prestige of the Spirit Hall to create a golden body for Tang Hao.

The Spirit Hall, which possesses absolute high-level power, has begun to change its mindset regarding the unification of the continent.

While the Spirit Hall once boasted numerous Title Douluos, they still faced the risk of being overwhelmed and killed by a mob. However, Bibi Dong now realizes that given enough time, the Spirit Hall's Title Douluos will widen the power gap between themselves and the rest of the continent's Title Douluos.

"Uncle Ning, sometimes what you know may just be what others want you to know."

"Since Uncle Ning is betting on both sides, it's best to remain neutral for now. Of course, sometimes Uncle Ning should trust his intuition, after all, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is a great sect with a history of thousands of years."

"Of course, if Uncle Ning really wants to know something, perhaps Grandpa Jian will be able to tell you the answer soon."

Sword Douluo, standing to the side, asked with some doubt, "Am I able to tell him the answer?"

Chen Hong nodded: "Yes, when Grandpa Sword's soul realm reaches the realm of intent, which is the realm that a titled Douluo can reach, then Grandpa Sword will know everything. Yes, everything. Whether it is the Technology Chamber of Commerce or the Spirit Hall, everything they are doing now and in the future will be exposed in Grandpa Sword's eyes."

Chen Hong had already said enough; it would be impolite to continue asking questions.

Since Chen Hong had already told them that the answers to all their questions were hidden in the Soul Ring Theory, Ning Fengzhi and Sword Douluo didn't ask any more questions. After saying goodbye to Chen Hong, they took the Shrek Academy team, who were going the same way, home.

At this moment, Ning Quan, who had been missing for a long time, finally returned and found Chen Hong, who was engrossed in the library of Wuhun City.

"I wonder if Uncle's swordsmanship will still be as divine as it was in the future?" Seeing Ning Quan approach, Chen Hong closed the book in his hand, turned his back to Ning Quan, and smiled.

Even a fool could tell that Ning Quan had probably gone to find Xu Ke'er from the Xingluo team.

Ning Quan rolled his eyes at Chen Hong, his lips twitching slightly. What could he do? His blind date was right in front of him. If he didn't go and meet her, his sister would beat him to death when he got back.

"The Pope of the Spirit Hall wishes to see you." Ning Quan had not forgotten his mission.

"Oh, oh, Uncle, does this mean you won't come to see me unless you have a mission? What happened to the unbreakable bond between us?"

Ning Quan: "."

Ning Quan stared at Chen Hong expressionlessly for a while, then turned and left.

He has delivered the message; the rest of the time is his free time.

I don't know if drawing the sword is magical or not.

"But I feel my sword is even sharper now."

Inside the Papal Palace, Chen Hong lay expressionless on the ground, his strange expression suggesting he was questioning the meaning of life.

"Um... Your Holiness, may I get up?"

With her doubts about life over, in the clean and quiet inner papal sanctuary, Chen Hong rubbed her slightly weak thighs, carefully leaning upwards in a languid posture against the magnificent papal throne, looking with considerable amusement at Chen Hong, who had sprawled in front of her as soon as he entered.

She parted her pearly teeth slightly, her voice ethereal, tinged with a hint of inexplicable amusement: "I didn't make you kneel down. You just came in and your legs went weak, causing you to collapse to the ground. Who can you blame for that?"

Inside the Papal Palace, Bibi Dong withdrew all guards, leaving herself time to meet with Chen Hong alone.

"But... no one outside says that the current Pope of the Spirit Hall is a level 99 peak Douluo with extraordinary talent!" Chen Hong lay on the ground, his face full of sorrow and shame for his own incompetence. How come his legs seemed to have a mind of their own as soon as he entered, subconsciously choosing to slide gracefully to his knees towards Bibi Dong? (Bibi Dong rarely displays her martial prowess.)

Sure enough, I can't always think with my toes. As I was thinking, my toes developed their own consciousness and started controlling my thighs to slide to my knees on their own, boohoo.
