Little Fox Hu Liena!

"This brat must have been kicked in the head by a donkey, daring to be so arrogant."

"His Holiness the Pope's pressure is not something an ordinary person can withstand. This brat is simply courting death."

At once, waves of mockery rose and fell throughout the hall.

Chu Fan was not deliberately slighting Bibi Dong. He knew well that if he wanted to establish himself in Spirit Hall, relying on Qian Renxue's word alone would not suffice. On the Douluo Continent, the strong were revered. Only true strength could silence the masses. Showing his edge would spare him a great deal of trouble, which was why he had said something that shocked everyone.

Seeing that Chu Fan remained neither servile nor overbearing and had not backed down from her challenge, Bibi Dong felt a trace of admiration. A man should stand tall beneath the heavens, forge ahead bravely, and face all fears head-on.

Qian Renxue anxiously held Chu Fan's hand and asked, "Brother Chu Fan, can you really do this?"

Chu Fan smiled without explaining. He pointed toward the seats ahead, signaling for Qian Renxue to go over. "Xue, don't worry. Go over there first. Don't let this affect you."

Seeing Chu Fan still grinning at her, Qian Renxue's originally anxious heart finally settled. Following his wishes, she walked toward the front.

"Come on!" Chu Fan shouted.

At once, a beam of white light enveloped Chu Fan, and Bibi Dong's pressure rose within it.

"Why does this feel like cotton? So soft and weak?" Chu Fan said in surprise.

Could she be holding back?

Chu Fan did not fear Bibi Dong's pressure in the slightest. When it came to pressure, he was someone who could even scare off the Titan Giant Ape. Bibi Dong's pressure was naturally no challenge to him. Moreover, Bibi Dong was not exerting her full pressure, using only a small portion of it. Chu Fan's expression remained unchanged, completely unaffected.

"Looks like this Chu Fan has some skill. He can actually withstand my level-forty pressure so easily. Good. Let me see just how far you can go." Bibi Dong studied him with great interest and gradually increased the level of her pressure.

"Level-fifty pressure!"

"Level-sixty pressure!"

Bibi Dong continued raising it until it reached the terrifying level-seventy pressure.

Feeling Bibi Dong's pressure, Chu Fan silently thought, This should be enough to intimidate everyone, right?

At once

Chu Fan began to reveal a pained expression. His cheeks reddened, veins bulged across his face, and he looked as though he were in unbearable agony. It was as if something were pressing down on him, leaving him unable to breathe.

As someone with level-ninety-nine Soul Power, Bibi Dong's pressure naturally could not affect Chu Fan. This was merely an act.

Chu Fan knew that if he showed no reaction at all under Bibi Dong's pressure, it would surely arouse suspicion. But if he showed difficulty under level-seventy pressure, it would both let them witness how heaven-defying he was and leave them shocked, while also serving as a deterrent.

Unaware of Chu Fan's thoughts, Qian Renxue saw the pain on his face and fidgeted anxiously at the side. "Brother Chu Fan, you have to hold on. I believe in you."

Ding~

Half an incense stick's time passed in the blink of an eye. Everyone let out a sigh of relief, and Qian Renxue's tightly clenched heart finally relaxed.

Bibi Dong looked at Chu Fan with satisfaction, nodded, withdrew her pressure, and announced loudly, "From this day forth, Chu Fan will be Nana's teacher."

The entire hall was instantly stunned.

"This Chu Fan, a worthless fool, actually held out for so long?"

Even Qian Daoliu wore a look of surprise. "It seems this brat has been hiding his strength."

Upon hearing the Pope's announcement, Qian Renxue was immediately delighted, a smile blooming across her face. But when she remembered that she was about to leave, her joy turned to sorrow. Looking at Chu Fan, she silently thought,

Now that you're Nana's teacher, no one in Spirit Hall should deliberately make trouble for you anymore. I can leave without worry.

Brother Chu Fan, take care!

"Chrysanthemum Pass, go." Bibi Dong ordered.

"Yes!" Chrysanthemum Pass understood the Pope's meaning and promptly left the hall.

"Xue, for this trip to Heaven Dou City, I will send elders to accompany you. You will depart with them shortly," Bibi Dong said.

"Mm." Qian Renxue softly responded. She knew this day would eventually come.

Qian Renxue looked at Chu Fan with reluctant eyes. There was a smile on her face, yet anyone could sense the sorrow in her heart.

Chu Fan walked over to Qian Renxue and gently pulled her into his embrace, his expression tender.

"Xue, go without worry. I'll come find you."

"Mm, I'll wait for you, Brother Chu Fan."

Qian Renxue gently wiped away the tears at the corners of her eyes. She left Spirit Hall together with the elders. Chu Fan and Qian Renxue looked at each other, their eyes filled with reluctance.

Suddenly, the system's voice rang out.

Ding, congratulations, Host. You have unlocked the goddess Hu Liena.

"Hu Liena? The goddess is actually her!" Chu Fan was instantly overjoyed.

On the Douluo Continent, Hu Liena was Chu Fan's favorite. Unlike the other female leads, Hu Liena was neither as innocent and adorable as Xiao Wu nor as proud and noble as Qian Renxue. Yet she possessed an unyielding spirit. Her stubbornness and pride in refusing to submit to fate moved him the most. Thinking of this, Chu Fan could not help sighing. "Perhaps this is what it means to cherish each other as kindred spirits."

In the real world, Chu Fan had been someone who never admitted defeat. That was also why Hu Liena was the one he liked and admired most.

"Could the Nana they mentioned be Hu Liena?" Chu Fan was greatly startled.

Yes, it must be her, Chu Fan affirmed inwardly. He knew that in Spirit Hall, the only person Bibi Dong cared about so much was her prized disciple, Hu Liena.

To confirm it further, Chu Fan asked, "Your Holiness the Pope, may I ask what martial soul this Nana you mentioned possesses?"

"Demon Fox!"

Demon Fox. Then it really is Hu Liena, Chu Fan thought with eager anticipation.

A moment later, Chrysanthemum Pass brought a girl into the hall.

When Chu Fan first saw the girl, he looked her up and down.

Hu Liena, whose martial soul was the Demon Fox. Was she that little seductive fox?

Suddenly, a voice sounded within Hu Liena's heart. Hu Liena's face filled with shock.

"Who? Who is speaking in my heart?" Hu Liena looked around.

"Seductive fox? How dare you insult my martial soul!"

After Chrysanthemum Pass left, Chu Fan carefully examined the girl before him.

The girl wore a short red dress that fell past her knees. Her skin was fair, her figure graceful, and her willow-thin waist swayed with Mystic Step as she walked, making her exceptionally charming. Her clear, bright eyes were framed by curved willow-leaf brows, while her long lashes trembled slightly. Her flawless fair skin carried a faint rosy tint, and her thin lips were as delicate and luscious as rose petals.

This little girl was already the makings of a beauty. Once she grew up, she would surely bring ruin to kingdoms and nations. With a fox as her martial soul, perhaps she could become a second Su Daji.

"Su Daji?"

"Who is Su Daji?"

"Hmph, everyone knows I'm beautiful. Who needs your praise?"

"If I find out who you are, I'll definitely teach you a good lesson!" Hu Liena angrily thought.
