Conquest Successful, New Reward!

Just as everyone stared in shock at the Twin Martial Souls, Xie Yue hurried in through the hall doors.

After paying his respects to His Holiness the Pope, Bibi Dong, he quickly went to Hu Liena's side, his eyes full of concern. "Nana, are you all right?"

Xie Yue was Hu Liena's older brother and had always doted on his younger sister. The moment he heard that she had been kidnapped, he had rushed to Spirit Hall in a panic. Only after seeing that Hu Liena was unharmed did he finally relax.

Hu Liena had relied on her brother since childhood. Xie Yue was her only living relative, and seeing his worried expression made her nose sting as warmth instantly welled up in her eyes.

Hu Liena took a deep breath, forcing back her tears. A smile appeared on her face as she said softly, "Brother, I'm fine."

"You silly girl, don't be so reckless next time." Xie Yue smiled and rubbed Hu Liena's head.

Suddenly, a voice rang out. "Xie Yue, it's good that you're here. The elders and I have decided that the few of you will form a team, with an elder personally responsible for your training."

"As for the position of captain, Chu Fan will take it!"

Xie Yue and the others were immediately stunned.

"Chu Fan?" Xie Yue glared at Chu Fan, his heart full of confusion. He immediately said, "Your Holiness, please reconsider the matter of the captaincy."

"Not only will I refuse to accept Chu Fan as captain, I'm afraid the others won't accept it either."

Refuse to accept it? I've already conquered your little sister completely, and you want a taste too?

Chu Fan scoffed inwardly.

Hu Liena immediately bit her lower lip and huffed inwardly, Hmph, who did you conquer? I only acknowledged you as my master. If you want to conquer me, keep dreaming.

Hu Liena shot him a glance. Though angry, a faint blush still surfaced on her face. Suddenly, an idea flashed through her mind, and a strange curve lifted at the corner of her lips.

"Your Holiness, why not let the two of them have a match? Whoever wins can be captain," Hu Liena said.

"We'll do as Nana says!" Bibi Dong knew that the captain naturally had to be the stronger one in order to lead the team better.

Sigh, this little fox really knows how to stir up trouble for her master.

Chu Fan could not help looking at Hu Liena and shaking his head.

Master, Master, you can't blame your precious disciple. I'm just curious about whether you or my brother is stronger, Hu Liena thought, spreading her hands with an innocent expression.

Xie Yue raised an arm. "Brother Chu, please!"

Chu Fan walked to the center of the hall, with Xie Yue following closely behind. The people around them tactfully moved away to either side.

"Xie Yue, Moon Blade martial soul, level thirty-four Battle Spirit Master!" As he spoke, an eerie curved blade appeared in his hand.

"Chu Fan, spear martial soul, level sixteen Spirit Master!"

"Level sixteen? How could someone like that be worthy of being my sister's teacher?" Hearing Chu Fan's words, Xie Yue's eyes were full of doubt, which soon turned into disdain. "Let me see how a level sixteen Spirit Master plans to fight a Soul Elder like me."

Chu Fan summoned the God Slaying Spear and stood in the middle of the hall.

A wave of pressure immediately emanated from the God Slaying Spear. Looking at it, Xie Yue instinctively heightened his guard. I didn't expect it to suppress my martial soul. But the gap in Soul Power isn't something a martial soul can make up for.

This match will determine my future development in Spirit Hall. I can only win, not lose. As long as I get close to Chu Fan, my speed advantage will make the outcome unquestionable. With that thought, Xie Yue launched the first attack, immediately using his speed advantage to charge at Chu Fan.

In an instant, Xie Yue was within ten steps of Chu Fan, and a smile rose at the corner of his lips as he swung his curved blade to attack. "Kid, it's over!"

The others began discussing among themselves.

"Sigh, what a pity. The outcome is already clear!"

"Chu Fan is just standing there. Did he get scared stupid? I thought he was supposed to be impressive."

Xie Yue had originally thought Chu Fan would use the spear's advantage to attack from a distance, which might have made victory somewhat difficult. But now it seemed that Chu Fan was just an idiot. Someone like him was not worthy of being Nana's teacher. He immediately dove at Chu Fan at full speed.

When he was only two steps away from Chu Fan, Chu Fan suddenly moved. The God Slaying Spear in his hand shifted, blocking Xie Yue's attack. Then he swung the spear shaft around his back and immediately swept it forward.

Golden light surged forth, spreading out with a wave of air at incredible speed.

Seeing that he could not dodge it, Xie Yue also slashed out a blade of light to meet it head-on.

The instant Xie Yue's blade light collided with the God Slaying Spear's radiance, it shattered and vanished into the air. The golden light did not slow in the slightest as it flashed past.

Chu Fan withdrew his martial soul, his expression calm and composed as he said coldly, "Break!"

As soon as his voice fell, Xie Yue let out a breath. His legs seemed to lose all control, collapsing weakly beneath him as he fell to the ground. The curved blade in his hand vanished, leaving him without the slightest ability to fight back.

Everyone in the hall was stunned. The entire hall fell deathly silent before erupting into a clamor of discussion moments later.

"This... is over already?"

"With just one move, he completely incapacitated Xie Yue. Just who is Chu Fan?"

"As expected of Nana's teacher, his strength is truly extraordinary. Good thing I didn't provoke him. If that spear came at me, I wouldn't be able to take it."

Bibi Dong nodded slightly as well, her eyes full of satisfaction.

At that moment, Hu Liena was also stunned by the golden light on Chu Fan's God Slaying Spear. Her mind was filled with the sight of Chu Fan standing like a war god on the day she was kidnapped. It would be wonderful if I could become someone like Chu Fan someday.

Suddenly, Bibi Dong's voice resounded throughout the hall. "From this day forward, Chu Fan will be the captain of the Spirit Hall Youth Team."

Listening to Bibi Dong's voice echo through the hall, Xie Yue looked stunned. Then a soft light shone over him, and the pain in his body eased considerably.

After briefly treating Xie Yue, Bibi Dong immediately announced, "Chu Fan, Nana, Xie Yue, Yan, the four of you are the finest among Spirit Hall's younger generation. You are Spirit Hall's future and hope. I hope you will grow stronger quickly and contribute your strength to Spirit Hall as soon as possible."

Everyone answered in unison, "Yes!"

Xie Yue looked at Chu Fan, his heart full of admiration. He said sincerely, "Brother Chu, from now on, my sister and I will follow your lead."

Chu Fan nodded. "Mm."

Follow my lead? What can you do? At most, you can have your sister serve me.

A blush suddenly spread across Hu Liena's face. Her steps, which had been supporting Xie Yue as they walked, involuntarily came to a stop.

Chu Fan's handsome face appeared in her mind, and she murmured in a voice as soft as a mosquito's, "It's not like I can't serve you."

Noticing something strange, Xie Yue looked at Hu Liena's expression and asked in confusion, "Nana, what are you muttering about?"

Hu Liena came back to her senses and saw both Chu Fan and her brother staring at her. Her pretty face turned even redder. Covering her face, she ran forward.

A system notification suddenly sounded.

Ding! Congratulations, Host, for successfully conquering the goddess Hu Liena. Reward: Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Ring.

"Another Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Ring!" Chu Fan said in shock.
