Chapter 19 Coronation Ceremony

……

It was afternoon.

The papal coronation ceremony.

The weather wasn't great today, and with the former pope having just passed away, the atmosphere in Wuhun City couldn't be described as festive.

Moreover, the time between the announcement of Pope Bibidon's coronation and today's ceremony was only a week, which was somewhat rushed.

Of the seven major sects that should have all been present, only two, excluding the Haotian Sect which was not expected to appear, showed up.

They are the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, which never misses any important occasions and never makes enemies with anyone, and whose sect strength ranks second among the top three sects.

There's also the Elephant Armor Sect, which immediately sided with the Spirit Hall after the Clear Sky Sect's incident.

"Uncle Bone, something's off about the atmosphere in Spirit City."

Ning Fengzhi, sitting in the guest section, was observing the situation on the field.

It's one thing that only two of the seven major sects showed up, but the Spirit Hall side didn't make any move either.

In particular, there were only two people sitting in the Elder Hall seats, namely Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo, who had recently gained notoriety as veteran Title Douluos of the Spirit Hall.

None of the other titled Douluo were present, and even the Grand Elder of the Spirit Hall, who was supposed to crown the Pope, did not show up.

Something's wrong! Something's very wrong!

"Don't worry, Fengzhi, even if this is a trap, I can get you out of here," Gu Rong said.

He wouldn't dare say he'd win a fight, but when it comes to escaping, if he's second to none on this continent, no one dares to claim to be first.

"It's not that I'm worried about that, it's just..." Ning Fengzhi looked at the vacant papal throne.

"Now that the Clear Sky Sect is in trouble, the relationship between Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex and us is not good, and the Elephant Armor Sect has sided with the Spirit Hall, the balance between the seven major sects and the Spirit Hall is about to be disrupted."

As the oldest of the seven major sects and the oldest soul master force on the continent besides the Spirit Hall, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is most concerned about the balance between these soul master forces.

They are the ones who least want violent conflicts between Soul Master organizations; stability is the key to long-term success, and harmony brings wealth.

This whole thing was clearly a conflict caused by the Spirit Hall trying to seize the 100,000-year-old spirit beast from Tang Hao. But now, just because the Pope is dead, it's being made to seem like the Clear Sky Sect committed some terrible crime, something utterly heinous.

A 100,000-year-old transformed soul beast is a rare sight, appearing only once every thousand years. It's an unwritten rule in the soul master world that whoever gets it first owns it. Tang Hao has been guarding it for so many years, yet the Spirit Hall still relentlessly pursues it. They have absolutely no shame.

They even said that Tang Hao launched the attack.

Is Tang Hao out of his mind? Attacking three Title Douluos all by himself?

They can't even come up with a plausible excuse.

Moreover, now that Qian Xunji is dead and their own leader has been killed, even if they know that the Spirit Hall is in the wrong, no one can say anything about it.

After all, respect for the dead is paramount...

"Alright, Fengzhi, don't overthink it. Even if the Spirit Hall wants to take this opportunity to cause trouble, not only will we not just stand by and watch, but even their own people wouldn't actually do it," Gu Rong said.

The Spirit Hall's spirit masters come from the entire spirit master world, and their interests are intertwined. Even the titled Douluo elders of the Elder Hall alone have varying degrees of vested interests with the seven major sects and the two great empires.

If the Pope hadn't been killed, this war wouldn't have even started.

Ning Fengzhi sighed, "I just don't know how far this fight will go."

It's impossible to wipe out the entire sect. If the Spirit Hall really intended to destroy the Clear Sky Sect, the two great empires and the other seven sects wouldn't just stand by and watch.

After all, if they kill the Haotian Sect, who knows if they'll be next?

Moreover, the elders and sect leader of the Clear Sky Sect are not to be trifled with. To destroy the Clear Sky Sect, at least three Title Douluo would have to be sacrificed.

Who should die?

He didn't think those titled Douluo elders of the Spirit Hall had lived long enough.

"The new Pope has arrived," Gu Rong said.

Ning Fengzhi looked up in the direction where the Pope was entering, "I just hope this new Pope is easy to get along with."

……

On the high platform, Bibi Dong, dressed in a purple-gold long dress and wearing a nine-curved purple-gold crown, finally made her appearance.

Standing on the stage, the golden crocodile, who was in charge of the coronation ceremony, finally opened his eyes.

Just as he was about to speak, Jin'e's gaze was drawn to a small golden cat that Bibi Dong was holding in her arms.

"What do you mean by this?" Golden Crocodile frowned slightly and asked telepathically.

How could you bring something like this onto the stage for such a solemn occasion?

Bibi Dong replied casually, "What rule says the Pope can't bring a kitten onto the coronation stage?"

Jin E was speechless for a moment, but he didn't want to argue with Bibi Dong in this situation, so he pretended not to see it and began to direct the standard procedures before the Pope's coronation.

Fireworks, music, welcoming guests...

Finally, at the last step, Jin E stepped forward and solemnly handed the scepter, symbolizing the Pope's authority, to Bibi Dong.

Bibi Dong casually picked up the scepter, and under the somewhat bewildered gaze of the Golden Crocodile, she hugged the cat and turned to look at the tens of thousands of Soul Masters below the stage.

Without further ado, Bibi Dong slammed the scepter, inlaid with countless gems, into the ground, unleashing a surge of soul power.

Yellow—Yellow—Purple—Purple—Black—Black—Black—Black!

When the eighth black spirit ring appeared, the audience erupted in uproar.

"How old is she?" Ning Fengzhi asked stiffly.

If he remembers correctly, Bibi Dong is only around thirty years old, right?

Even Tang Chen of the Clear Sky Sect, who was once an insurmountable peak in the world of Soul Masters, was only a Soul Saint at the age of thirty!

"No, it's not over yet." Gu Rong's expression grew increasingly grave.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Bibi Dong unleashed a unique soul power pressure belonging to a Title Douluo, and at the same time, a blood-red soul ring slowly appeared from the eighth black soul ring.

Nine Rings! Titled Douluo!

The audience was shocked!

Apart from Jin E, who knew the truth, all the Soul Masters at the coronation ceremony were captivated by the nine Soul Rings floating on Bibi Dong's body, especially the blood-red Soul Ring that symbolized 100,000 years.

All objections to Bibi Dong, this young man, becoming pope vanished at this moment.

The Spirit Hall is the authoritative institution in the world of spirit masters, and for spirit masters, the most important thing is strength!

To put it bluntly, the Spirit Hall was in the wrong this time, but it was still able to openly and legitimately retaliate against the Clear Sky Sect because they had enough power!

Nine spirit rings are more real than any declaration!

"She's only thirty years old..."

Most of the Soul Masters present were naturally familiar with Bibi Dong, the Holy Maiden, and it was precisely because they were familiar with her that they were shocked!

A titled Douluo at the age of thirty!

It also possesses a 100,000-year soul ring that every soul master dreams of!

"It seems the information we received earlier was true," Ning Fengzhi sighed.

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

Bibi Dong, the Holy Maiden of the Spirit Hall, possesses twin martial souls!

But isn't it true that you can't cultivate twin martial souls?

The Spirit Hall has had its share of Soul Masters with twin Martial Souls, but without exception, all of them destroyed themselves!

In fact, there is almost a consensus in the Soul Master world that the owner of twin martial souls is practically equivalent to a useless martial soul!

No, it's not even as good as a useless martial soul. At least people with useless martial souls can cultivate normally, but with twin martial souls, you'll just blow yourself up while you're practicing!

To date, the highest level of cultivation for twin martial souls is Soul Emperor. Legend has it that the person was also the fastest cultivator of his time. With both martial souls equipped with soul rings at the same time, he almost doubled his cultivation speed. However, after reaching the Soul Emperor level, or rather, when he reached level 60 and equipped with soul rings, that genius with twin martial souls exploded!

Subsequent owners of twin martial souls all met similar fates.

But now, Bibi Dong has such a terrifying cultivation speed, which proves that the rumors about her twin martial souls are true, and that she has added soul rings to both of her martial souls at the same time!

In other words, Bibi Dong solved the problem of cultivating twin martial souls!

"..."

Looking at the reactions below from the high platform, Bibi Dong was quite satisfied.

At first, she did not intend to directly reveal that she had become a Title Douluo, especially her 100,000-year spirit ring, because although she had become the Pope, she was almost completely isolated and helpless in the Spirit Hall.

While rashly revealing her strength might increase her prestige and have a short-term positive effect on her control of the Papal Palace, since strength is the most important thing for a Soul Master, nine Soul Rings are more direct and effective than any words.

However, this would also inadvertently create many enemies for her. The old men in the Elders' Hall were all thinking of placing their own people in key positions in the Papal Palace before she truly took power. If she wasn't strong enough, those people wouldn't take her seriously and might even lower their guard, giving her more time and opportunities to reclaim power.

However, once she directly reveals her strength, those people will be highly vigilant towards her, and may even unite to trip her up. In the current Papal Palace, she has no one she can trust or use. Being too conspicuous will bring a lot of trouble.

If a conflict breaks out, she doesn't know Qian Daoliu's attitude. If he stands up to protect the Elders' Hall, she can only tolerate it. In this case, the Pope's prestige will suffer a major blow, and she will have to spend more time and energy to make up for the losses.

Therefore, hiding is far more cost-effective and safer than demonstrating.

But Nanfeng insisted that she directly demonstrate her strength, saying that it would be simple and brutal, and anyone who disagreed could just be killed.

After enduring for so many years, even a turtle can't hold back any longer.

If you've got the guts, then go for it! At worst, we'll make the Spirit Hall a laughingstock to everyone!

If the elders and the Pope clash and the Grand Elders continue to protect the elders, it will damage the Pope's prestige as the highest leader of the Spirit Hall, and he may even become a laughing stock.

The Spirit Hall is a disgrace!

All they care about is having fun!

Upon reflection, she realized that this was indeed the case.

Qian Daoliu values ​​the development of the Spirit Hall the most. If that old woman doesn't care about the Spirit Hall's reputation, why should she care?

boom!

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Bibi Dong suddenly slammed the papal scepter in her right hand into the ground, where it firmly embedded itself.

He casually scooped up the golden kitten in his arms, raised it high above his head, took a deep breath, and shouted:

"Long live the Spirit Hall!!"

With the support of profound soul power, Bibi Dong's voice resounded throughout every corner of the coronation ceremony, and even echoed continuously.

Golden Crocodile stared blankly at the scene.

Bibi Dong! You're trying to reach for the heavens!

Why did you lift the cat up like that?!

A cat is sitting on the Pope's head. Do you know what that's called?!

Before Jin E could intervene to stop this absurd scene, tens of thousands of Soul Masters below the stage responded to Bibi Dong's call and shouted in unison:

"Long live the Spirit Hall!!"

"Long live His Holiness the Pope!!"

Gazing at Bibi Dong, who was surrounded by nine spirit rings, all the spirit masters belonging to the Spirit Hall were filled with fervor, and shouts rose and fell, shaking even the vast Spirit City. Ning Fengzhi and his group, who had come to witness the ceremony, looked extremely embarrassed.

Shouting is wrong, not shouting is also wrong.

How unsociable!

Golden Crocodile's face darkened even more. "You can yell, but put that damn cat down!"

Don't put it on your head!

The shouts lasted for nearly a minute. Bibi Dong lightly stomped her foot, and a vast wave of soul power spread out, instantly silencing the frenzied scene.

Jin E breathed a sigh of relief, but just when he thought it was over, the Holy Light Cat that Bibi Dong held high suddenly burst out with a dazzling golden light, attracting the attention of everyone present.

Bibi Dong took a deep breath, "Long live the Angel God!!"

The golden crocodile was stunned.

Bibi Dong! What the hell do you mean by this?!

Before Jin E could intervene, tens of thousands of Soul Masters below the stage responded to Bibi Dong's call once again.

"Long live the Angel God!!"

"Long live His Holiness the Pope!!"

"Long live the Spirit Hall!!"
