Bibi Dong: ???
Bibi Dong said coldly, "Are you serious?"
Qian Renxue chuckled, shook her head, and said, "How could that be? But relatively, if I lose, I must agree to a request from him that I can fulfill."
Bibi Dong finally breathed a sigh of relief. No matter how much she disliked Qian Renxue, she wouldn't let Qian Renxue become someone else's subordinate.
That would also be an insult to herself!
Bibi Dong: "Last time, the notebook you sent back, who wrote it? What evidence do you have to prove that its contents are true?"
Qian Renxue chuckled, "None. I picked it up by chance. As for whether it's true or not, you'll have to judge for yourself."
Changing the subject, Qian Renxue said with a serious expression, "Bibi Dong, is the reason you dislike me so much related to Yu Xiaogang?!"
Bibi Dong was slightly startled, her lips twitched, but upon remembering what happened that night, the words 'Little Xue' were stuck in her throat, unable to be spoken.
Instead, Bibi Dong's cold voice came, "Shut up! You don't need to concern yourself with this matter! As for your desire to join the Spirit Hall Team, that's out of the question. You cannot be exposed to the public eye."
Qian Renxue bit her lower lip, her face showing unwillingness. From Bibi Dong's current reaction, she had guessed correctly. Something definitely happened between her father and Bibi Dong back then!
Qian Renxue snorted, "Bibi Dong, there's something I must make clear to you. You are merely the Supreme Pontiff of Spirit Hall, and Spirit Hall belongs to my grandfather. You wouldn't want the Spirit Hall Team to lose the championship under your watch, would you? Your disciple is only a Spirit King. She is no match for Xiao Tian. I can tell you, Xiao Tian is already a Spirit Emperor!"
Seeing Bibi Dong give her no face, Qian Renxue no longer cared. Spirit Hall itself belonged to the Qian family, and she was the Qian family's only bloodline. Spirit Hall would ultimately be hers!
She knew that for all these years, Bibi Dong had been subtly—no, openly—cultivating Hu Liena, grooming her to be the next Supreme Pontiff. However, as long as her grandfather was still alive, Bibi Dong wouldn't be able to achieve that!
Moreover, she possessed the Angel God inheritance!
At this moment, Qian Renxue had no idea that after inheriting the Angel God Position, her grandfather would die.
Bibi Dong was slightly stunned, "Xiao Tian is already a Spirit Emperor? Why are you only telling me this now?"
Qian Renxue snorted, "I just found out myself. What? Do you still think Spirit Hall's so-called Golden Generation can defeat Xiao Tian? Don't count on Hu Liena and Xie Yue's Spirit Fusion Skill. Yes, their Spirit Fusion Skill can even defeat a Spirit Emperor, but Xiao Tian is no ordinary Spirit Emperor!
The primary abilities of Charm are only a few: one is the ability to generate a red mist similar to a Domain, which obstructs the vision of those within it, and also reduces the opponent's spirit power, senses, and mobility by fifty percent; second is to enhance one's own mental force; and third is to possess powerful close-combat ability.
However, these three abilities, in front of Xiao Tian, besides the first ability's reduction, the others probably aren't worth mentioning."
Bibi Dong frowned slightly, "Why? Is it just because his Spirit is a sword?"
Bibi Dong didn't know much about Xiao Tian, only that he was highly praised by Sword Dao Chenxin, and his long-range and close-combat abilities were both strong.
Qian Renxue shook her head and said, "Not only that, but it's because of his Sword Dao cultivation. Although I haven't fought him, I have learned a bit. Charm's Charm is absolutely useless against Xiao Tian. Moreover, I still haven't seen Xiao Tian use his full power. How do you know he doesn't have a trump card similar to a Spirit Fusion Skill?"
Bibi Dong fell silent. If he was already a Spirit Emperor and also had a way to temporarily enhance his strength, then Charm might indeed not be his opponent. Furthermore, the other side also had Dugu Yan, who was also a Spirit King. Her poison would probably be enough to cause trouble for the other members of the Spirit Hall Team.
Looking at Bibi Dong's conflicted expression, Qian Renxue knew that her heart had actually softened.
After a moment of contemplation, Bibi Dong said, "There's no rush for this. Tomorrow is the drawing ceremony. This is their Heaven Dou Royal Team's first match. As the captain, Xiao Tian should be participating. We'll know their approximate strength then."
Qian Renxue: Tsk...
"Hmph, suit yourself!"
As Qian Renxue finished speaking, she turned and left.
Tonight's goal was achieved, but it was a pity she still didn't know the reason Bibi Dong disliked her, or what exactly happened back then!
Early the next morning, the various teams also went to the Great Spirit Arena in Spirit City for the drawing ceremony.
During this time, the Heaven Dou Royal Team encountered the Shrek Team.
Looking at Tang San's gloomy expression, Xiao Tian couldn't help but laugh, "Yo, Tang San, why do you look so serious? And during the promotion rounds, you weren't even there?"
When Xiao Tian said this, Tang San's heart felt like it was pricked by a needle. His mind was filled with the scene of his bloodline being extracted in the Blue Silver Ancestral Land. He never wanted to experience that pain again.
Moreover, after he returned, due to his doubts, he had privately asked Dai Mubai and the others. During the promotion rounds, Xiao Tian had not come to watch even once!
This couldn't help but remind him of the sword array in the Blue Silver Ancestral Land. Tang San looked at Xiao Tian, his tone full of probing, "Oh? I heard that you also didn't go to watch the matches during the promotion rounds. What were you doing then?"
Xiao Tian chuckled, "What's so good about the promotion rounds? Actually, if it weren't for the three Spirit Bones as the championship reward, to be honest, I feel that with my current strength, I'd be bullying you guys... So, there's no need for me to watch. You wouldn't use your trump cards in the promotion rounds, would you? It's meaningless!"
Silence was the 'Cambridge' of that night.
Tang San kept observing Xiao Tian's facial expression, trying to see if he was lying, but he couldn't discern anything.
"Hey, you're Xiao Tian, the captain of the Heaven Dou Royal Team, right? I've never seen anyone as arrogant as you!"
At this moment, a team in all red uniforms appeared from behind them. Leading them was a full-figured beauty with fiery red hair, looking at him with dissatisfaction.
Blazing Academy, Huo Wu!
Xiao Tian looked at their uniforms, combined with her irritable temper, and immediately guessed who they were.
Xiao Tian said indifferently, "Arrogant? I'm just stating a fact. I wonder if you heard about my practice match with the Shrek Team a few months ago? Do you know why I had to participate then?"
