Sun Sheng watched the Titled Douluo scrambling madly over him, arguing until their faces were red, and his heart was ecstatic.

This was undoubtedly the greatest recognition of him.

Their fervent enthusiasm also let Sun Sheng learn about the treasures these Titled Douluo possessed.

From now on, he could fish out their treasures one by one.

Of course, aside from Bibi Dong, there were also those who didn't join the scramble, drawing Sun Sheng's close attention.

They were Martial Soul Hall's First Worship, Qian Daoliu, and Second Worship, Golden Crocodile Douluo.

Both were top-tier powerhouses on the Douluo Continent.

Qian Daoliu went without saying—he was one of the three peerless Titled Douluo, alongside Tang Chen and Bo Saixi, unmatched in the sky, a peak Level 99 Soul Power, who had passed the Red Level Eight Trials to become the First Worship of the Angel Temple, a human whose strength was infinitely close to that of a god.

As for Golden Crocodile Douluo, he was a peak Level 98 Titled Douluo, held in such high esteem that even Qian Daoliu and Bibi Dong had to show him some respect.

His combat prowess was fierce and unmatched; few could rival him.

If either of them were willing to take Sun Sheng as a disciple, none of the Titled Douluo would dare to compete.

That was their prestige within Martial Soul Hall.

Of course, neither would rashly join the scramble.

After all, they had their dignity to uphold.

Even if they wanted to take Sun Sheng as a disciple, they had to consider their lofty status.

Otherwise, they'd lower themselves—what difference would there be between them and the other Titled Douluo?

"Everyone, stop arguing!"

It seemed the Titled Douluo were quarreling too fiercely; Bibi Dong, fearing they might come to blows, quickly called for a halt.

Hearing Bibi Dong's words, the Titled Douluo gradually quieted down.

They glared at each other resentfully, like children fighting over a prized toy.

Watching them, Sun Sheng couldn't help but laugh inwardly.

How amusing.

These old fellows really were something.

"Sun Sheng, have you made your decision?"

Bibi Dong asked expressionlessly once the hall had finally fallen silent.

"Reporting to Your Holiness the Pope, this subordinate has made his choice." Sun Sheng replied with a respectful smile.

At that moment, all the Titled Douluo looked at Sun Sheng with eager anticipation.

Even Qian Daoliu and Golden Crocodile Douluo, who had remained still and composed, turned their gazes toward him.

"Oh? Which elder or worship has caught your eye?" Bibi Dong asked with some interest.

Sun Sheng glanced at Bibi Dong, then suddenly knelt on one knee and said respectfully, "I beg Your Holiness the Pope to take this subordinate as your disciple."

The Titled Douluo, who had been full of anticipation, were all stunned upon hearing Sun Sheng's words, their eyes filled with confusion and disapproval.

Hu Liena, too, was deeply puzzled.

Become the teacher's disciple?

That couldn't be possible.

As far as she knew, her teacher didn't like men.

Especially handsome ones.

Most people present were more or less aware of this.

Yet this kid actually wanted to become Bibi Dong's disciple—wasn't that a bit too fanciful?

Even Bibi Dong hadn't expected Sun Sheng to want to be her student.

This was a bit awkward.

"Sun Sheng, make another choice. I won't take you as a disciple," Bibi Dong replied.

Hearing this, the Titled Douluo breathed a slight sigh of relief.

They still had a chance.

"Your Holiness the Pope, please don't rush to a decision. This subordinate believes you will surely take me as your disciple."

Sun Sheng slowly rose after hearing her reply, smiling calmly.

He seemed to have anticipated this answer.

"Don't waste your efforts. Find someone else quickly."

Bibi Dong's brow furrowed slightly, a hint of impatience creeping in.

"Little brother, don't be rash. The teacher won't take you for a reason of her own. You'd better pick someone else quickly—don't provoke her."

Hu Liena, seeing Bibi Dong's displeasure, quickly whispered a reminder.

"Little sister, don't you want our relationship to be a bit closer?"

Sun Sheng turned to Hu Liena, a meaningful smile on his face.

Hu Liena hesitated at his words.

If her teacher could take Sun Sheng as a disciple, their bond would indeed grow closer.

"Your Holiness the Pope, the reason I joined Martial Soul Hall was for you. Beneath the heavens, only you can teach me."

Sun Sheng took a deep breath, clasped his hands behind his back, and gazed at Bibi Dong.

His tone and expression carried three parts dominance, three parts confidence, and four parts pride.

Bibi Dong looked at his demeanor, her body trembling slightly. A strange feeling suddenly surged within her heart.

A feeling she hadn't experienced in a long time.

But her past tragic experiences and years as Pope had made her heart as steady as a rock.

In the blink of an eye, that strange feeling vanished.

"Sun Sheng, I've already said I won't take you as a disciple. Are you testing my limits?"

Bibi Dong steadied her emotions and barked sternly.

Hu Liena shuddered at this, gripping Sun Sheng's small hand tightly and shaking her head, signaling him not to act rashly.

She knew her teacher was angry.

"Please calm your anger, Your Holiness. That's not what I meant."

Sun Sheng wasn't flustered. He cupped his hands and bowed.

It seemed he had anticipated this outcome.

"Then what do you mean?"

"Do you think having a thousand-year second ring makes you something special?"

"Let me tell you, you're not the only one under heaven."

"Stop wasting time and find someone else to take you as a disciple."

Bibi Dong took a deep breath, struggling to control her anger, and spoke impatiently.

Sun Sheng naturally knew he wasn't the only one under heaven.

Bibi Dong was one of them.

And all soul masters who had received divine trials could more or less achieve the same.

"Your Holiness the Pope, I know I'm not the only one with a thousand-year second ring, and I don't think I'm something special."

"But I possess Twin Martial Souls. Beneath the heavens, only you can teach me. That's why I presumed to seek you as my master. Please forgive my boldness."

Sun Sheng cupped his hands again and finally revealed his trump card.

Indeed, becoming Bibi Dong's disciple was no simple matter.

Twin Martial Souls!

Both Bibi Dong and everyone present were startled upon hearing Sun Sheng's words.

After all, Twin Martial Souls were exceedingly rare.

Every soul master with Twin Martial Souls was a formidable existence.

This represented not just talent, but a brilliant future.

Bibi Dong herself was a prime example of this—a symbol of power.

This was common knowledge across the Douluo Continent.

"You have Twin Martial Souls? Is that true?" Bibi Dong asked in astonishment.

"Of course!"

Sun Sheng's lips curled into a sly, wicked arc.

Then, he decisively summoned his two martial souls: the Ruyi Jingu Bang and the Great Sage Equal to Heaven, Sun Wukong.

Hiss...

When everyone saw the true form of the Ruyi Jingu Bang and the massive ape phantom, they all gasped.

Especially when they felt the powerful aura released by the two martial souls, it struck fear into their hearts.

Through their own martial souls, they could sense the pressure.

"What a fine pair of Twin Martial Souls!"

"From now on, Sun Sheng is my disciple."

Seeing Sun Sheng's Twin Martial Souls, Bibi Dong was overjoyed and accepted him as her disciple in front of everyone.

Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the master-seeking quest. Rewards: three Soul Orbs, five hundred Leveling Value, five hundred Exchange Value.
