Becoming Bibi Dong's Disciple

"Yue Guan."

"Bring that child over."

Bibi Dong took a deep breath. It was possibly the Golden Sacred Dragon!

The person who had left such a deep impression on her had a Golden Sacred Dragon Martial Soul that had failed to awaken. It was the legendary king of dragons.

For a moment, she could not help comparing him with her disciple Hu Liena. Both had top-tier Innate Soul Power, yet her disciple Nana, with her Innate Soul Power, had only a fox for a Martial Soul.

The difference was a little too great.

Perhaps this was another disciple bestowed on her by heaven.

And on closer inspection, she noticed how handsome his features were. He would grow into a handsome man. If Nana had a junior brother like him, she would be happy too, wouldn't she?

"Little fellow, come with Grandpa."

Yue Guan took Tang Wulin by the hand and soon appeared beside Bibi Dong, handing her the boy's information sheet.

"Six years old, awakened his Martial Soul four months ago."

"From Holy Soul Village in Nuoding City. Both parents deceased. Village Chief Old Jack found him and raised him to adulthood..."

Bibi Dong fell silent for a moment. Looking at the word "orphan" on the sheet, whatever reservations she had about the child being a boy vanished. Hadn't she once been an orphan with no one to rely on too?

The difference was that he had received the love of a grandfather named Jack, while what she had faced was...

At that moment, a vicious look flashed in Bibi Dong's eyes. The sight left Tang Wulin, who wore a respectful expression, at a loss. He could not shake the feeling that she was still very dangerous.

System, check in!

He hurriedly said it silently in his heart.

[Checked in with Bibi Dong. Congratulations to the host on a successful check-in]

[Congratulations to the host on obtaining: benevolent divine sense]

[Benevolent divine sense: whether from a benevolent or evil deity, divine senses on Douluo Continent will find it difficult to harbor much killing intent toward you and will have a friendly attitude. This will only change with the passage of time. Examples include the divine consciousness in the Asura God's inheritance and the divine consciousness in the Sea God's Deep Sea Universe Shield]

[Note: deceased deities do not have this ability, such as the fallen Angel God and the Rakshasa God, who died a tragic death...]

"..."

Surprise flashed in Tang Wulin's eyes, and a storm of shock surged through his heart. Benevolent divine sense!

It was no exaggeration to say that, although the reward might seem merely intimidating on the surface—after all, it was only the goodwill of divine senses—to him, it could not have been more important!

After all, what was the greatest threat in becoming Bibi Dong's disciple? It was not her love-brain tendencies or her obsessive personality, but...

The influence of the Rakshasa God's divine sense.

With this ability, if he really did become Bibi Dong's disciple, he could live comfortably, perhaps even better.

After all, the Rakshasa God had a tremendous influence on the woman before him. The goodwill of her divine consciousness could already affect Bibi Dong considerably.

"Child, your name is Wulin, isn't it?"

"Would you be willing to join Spirit Hall and take me as your teacher?"

Bibi Dong soon came back to her senses. Interest in her eyes, she waited for his answer.

"Spirit Hall has shown me kindness. Of course I'm willing."

"I am your disciple, Tang Wulin. Greetings, Teacher."

Tang Wulin nodded respectfully and spoke without delay.

"Very good..."

A satisfied smile appeared on Bibi Dong's face. She was in a very good mood as she looked at her newly accepted disciple. She gestured for Tang Wulin to come before her and turned her gaze toward Su Yuntao.

"Su Yuntao, was it?"

"You've done very well. You'll be promoted three ranks, and from now on, you'll work at the Spirit Hall Main Hall. Yue Guan, make the arrangements for him."

"..."

By now, Su Yuntao was too shocked to speak. Wulin had actually become His Holiness the Pope's disciple, and as the one who had brought him here, he could work in Spirit City and rise three ranks?

Had good fortune really come so suddenly?!

This was an opportunity he could never have obtained for hundreds of Gold Soul Coins, or even thousands or tens of thousands!

"Wulin, the Soul Power in your body has already reached level fifteen. It seems you've obtained your First Soul Ring, but you only awakened your Martial Soul four months ago. You..."

"Release your Martial Soul and let me see."

Sensing the fluctuations of Soul Power within Tang Wulin, Bibi Dong could not help speaking.

When she learned that he was a Soul Master, her first reaction had actually been to frown. In a small place like Nuoding City, he might have had difficulty obtaining a suitable First Soul Ring.

But his level-fifteen cultivation had dealt her a blow to the head. What was going on?

"Of course, Teacher."

"But the reason my Soul Power is a little higher is that I absorbed the wrong Soul Ring..."

Tang Wulin nodded and spoke softly.

"Absorbing the wrong Soul Ring can still raise it?"

Bibi Dong was taken aback. If her young disciple had not said it himself, she might have thought someone was talking nonsense.

"Yes. Teacher, please look..."

As Tang Wulin spoke, he released his Martial Soul. A powerful presence suddenly appeared, and even Bibi Dong felt threatened for an instant.

So this is the Golden Sacred Dragon Martial Soul? It truly is a top-tier dragon Martial Soul. Its presence alone is a cut above that of Yu Yuanzhen of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon...

Wait!

At first, as she felt the presence of this top-tier Martial Soul, the faint smile on Bibi Dong's face had not faded.

But she soon realized exactly what he meant when he said he had absorbed the wrong Soul Ring.

The moment the Dragon King's shadow appeared, a purple Soul Ring was already visible, giving off a brilliant, glittering light.

"..."

"Wulin, your First Soul Ring is a Thousand-Year Soul Ring?"

At that moment, Bibi Dong's beautiful eyes could not help widening. A thousand-year first ring!

Was that something a child could achieve?

Even though the first ring of her Second Martial Soul had surpassed ten thousand years, she had only begun adding Soul Rings after becoming a Titled Douluo!

Chrysanthemum Douluo, who had returned after making arrangements for Su Yuntao, was even more taken aback, his shock almost spilling onto his face. How was Tang Wulin such a ruthless character?

"Mm..."

"My Martial Soul isn't the Golden Sacred Dragon, but a king of dragons called the Golden Dragon King. And as for this Soul Ring, that's why I said it was an accident, Teacher."

Tang Wulin shook his head, looking just as helpless, as though he had not wanted things to turn out this way either.

"Oh? Tell your teacher about it."

Bibi Dong was taken aback. She suddenly recalled that he had said Spirit Hall had shown him kindness. Could it have something to do with this?

"At the time, there was a Soul Grandmaster who was going to take me to hunt for a Soul Ring..."

"That's what happened. I fainted after absorbing the Soul Ring. If Brother Tao, a Spirit Hall deacon, hadn't appeared, I'm afraid I would have had a hard time making it out of there."

Tang Wulin did not refuse. He quickly told her how a Soul Grandmaster had failed to take him as a disciple and abandoned him in the Soul Beast Forest. Of course, he also told a few lies.

"..."

"You were afraid you'd die just like that in the Soul Hunting Forest after being abandoned, and you happened to kill a dying thousand-year Soul Beast, so you dared to absorb its Soul Ring..."

"So when you said Spirit Hall had shown you kindness, it was because Su Yuntao reached out to help you then."

The smile vanished from Bibi Dong's face, replaced by coldness, and killing intent flashed in her eyes. No wonder Wulin had said Spirit Hall had shown him kindness. Su Yuntao was the one who had saved him!

But she truly had not expected a Soul Grandmaster to try to take her young disciple as his own, then grow resentful after being rejected. What kind of person was that?

Although her disciple had turned misfortune into a blessing by absorbing a Thousand-Year Soul Ring, who did not know how much stronger a thousand-year ring was than a hundred-year one? He had been gambling with his life!

"Wulin, tell your teacher who he is."

"I'll have your Elder Ju deal with him."

Bibi Dong's eyes were cold. He had nearly killed her precious disciple; she could not let the matter rest.

His entire clan had to be wiped out.

"Come to think of it, this person seems to have a remarkable title in the Soul Master World, and he's quite famous in Spirit Hall too."

Tang Wulin spoke slowly.

"Hm?"

Bibi Dong was startled, a sense of foreboding rising within her.

Beside her, Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan looked thoughtful, his bright eyes filled with contemplation. It couldn't be...

"All I know is his name."

"Yu Xiaogang."

Bibi Dong: "..."
