A grand coronation ceremony
Inside the Hotel where the Clear Sky Sect was staying.
Although they did not attend the Promotion Ceremony of Qiangu Changkong, they were able to learn about the detailed process of the ceremony from other people.
The Spirit Hall's decision to have all the Elder of the Elder Hall attend, and to bring out Qian Daoliu, who had long disappeared from the continent, was clearly a demonstration of their formidable strength to the outside world.
The Clear Sky Sect group had anticipated the strength of the Spirit Hall beforehand, so they were not surprised by this.
"Hmph, we just contacted other forces in Spirit City, and they've already put on such a grand show. They're probably just trying to impress us," Yu Xiaogang sneered. "The tens of thousands of soldiers who died on the border represent tens of thousands of families torn apart. The Spirit Hall must give the world an explanation."
"So what if we demonstrate our strength? How can that silence the public's criticism?"
Seeing Yu Xiaogang's righteous and awe-inspiring appearance, Tang Xiao's eyelids twitched violently, and he said repeatedly, "Grandmaster, it's best to be cautious. This is, after all, the Spirit Hall Spirit Hall. If we really provoke their wrath, we might not be able to leave."
Yu Xiaogang was unconcerned and scoffed, "The Spirit Hall wouldn't dare to be that bold. Sect Master Tang, rest assured, everything is under my control."
The following day, in the Ceremonial Robe Chamber.
Wu Qi slightly opened his arms, Attendant draped a long robe woven from Black Silk over him, the hem of which spread out behind him on the red carpet.
The robe was embroidered with a majestic Azure Luan in black and gold thread, and the cuffs were decorated with black feather patterns, adding a touch of luxury to the robe.
Sunlight streamed through the window sill, scattering across the robes, making the Azure Luan embroidery shimmer with dazzling luster, lifelike and vivid.
With a thought, a dark purple stream of light condensed in his hand, transforming into a Scepter.
Wu Qi did not choose the Pope's Scepter made of precious metals, but instead used the Scepter of Destruction Scepter of Destruction, which is also the totem of the Pope.
The Nine-Curved Purple Gold Crown, a symbol of Pope authority, was brought out by the messenger. The Attendant's hands trembled slightly, and the purple-gold crown appeared extremely heavy.
Wu Qi reached out and placed the purple-gold crown on his forehead. The full-length mirror in front of him reflected his noble and dignified face.
Shortly after, Attendant came to announce, "Your His Holiness the Pope, the time has come."
After leaving the Royal Dressing Room, a red carpet stretched from the entrance all the way to Papal Mountain and then to the Papal Hall.
As Hall Guardian Douluo, Qiangu Changkong Kong wore the exclusive Ceremonial Robe for Titled Douluo and followed Wu Qi to the Papal Hall.
Crowds lined both sides of the street, waiting to catch a glimpse of the New Pope.
As Wu Qi walked out of the imperial wardrobe, cheers erupted from the crowd.
Qian Renxue, Elder of Judgment, had been waiting at the door for a long time. With a smile on her face, she gestured for him to come in, "Your His Holiness the Pope, please follow me."
Meanwhile, on the Papal Mountain.
Former Pope Bibi Dong also attended today's ceremony.
The Coronation Ceremony of the New Pope has a complicated process. Before Wu Qi arrives, the Golden Crocodile Douluo, who is in charge of presiding over the ceremony, needs to face the audience and sing praises to Bibi Dong's achievements during her reign.
Although Bibi Dong was mad, she did achieve tremendous results during her tenure.
In particular, the All-Continent Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournament was initiated and founded by Bibi Dong. During the tournament, major forces responded to the call of the Spirit Hall and stopped fighting, making an indelible contribution to the peace of the continent.
Golden Crocodile Douluo disliked Bibi Dong the bottom of his heart, but since she had already stepped down, he was able to barely stand from an objective perspective and evaluate her achievements.
Papal Hall stood the leaders of the Seven Great Sects, the emperors of the Two Great Empires, and representatives of numerous other forces. They all highly acknowledged Bibi Dong's achievements, and no one raised any objections.
A few minutes later, the review of achievements concluded, and Bibi Dong, the former Pope, stood before the crowd and delivered her farewell speech.
She had no intention of staying in the Spirit Hall, so her speech was extremely brief.
"Due to personal reasons, I am no longer suitable to serve as Pope. I hope the New Pope will achieve even greater accomplishments and lead the Spirit Hall to a new level."
Having said that, she showed no hesitation and got up to walk down the Papal Mountain.
From the crowd, Yu Xiaogang said in a deep voice, "I can sense the desolation in Bibi Dong's eyes. I'm afraid those old guys in the Worship Hall have put a lot of pressure on her to get Wu Qi to the position."
Tang Xiao asked anxiously, "Grandmaster, shouldn't we contact Bibi Dong immediately?"
Yu Xiaogang waved his hand and laughed, "No rush, the best is yet to come. Once Wu Qi is disgraced, Dong'er will remember our kindness and will surely tell us the details of the Spirit Hall's internal affairs."
As a former Pope, Bibi Dong was still given a farewell ceremony.
The powerful figures guarding both sides of the passage knelt down on One Knee, watching Bibi Dong leave.
After descending from the Papal Mountain, no one knew where Bibi Dong went. Before the various factions could think further, the New Pope had already ascended the mountain.
Along the way, Soul Saint experts guarded both sides of the passage. After reaching the Papal Mountain, Soul Douluo guarded the area, which fully demonstrated the strength of the Spirit Hall's foundation.
In a way, Wu Qi should thank Bibi Dong.
If the other side hadn't implemented a retreat strategy, summoning these powerful figures back, Wu Qi wouldn't have been able to put on such a grand display.
Of course, these people were also waiting in the Papal Hall for Wu Qi to reassign them.
As Wu Qi ascended the steps in the Papal Hall, a group of powerful figures, led by Golden Crocodile Douluo, all knelt down on One Knee.
Normally, Titled Douluo are not required to kneel Pope, but to show respect, Titled Douluo such as Sword Douluo and Poison Douluo, as well as Ning Fengzhi, all knelt on One Knee. Tuoba Xi, one of the remaining Six Great Sects, also chose to kneel in order to leave a good impression on Wu Qi.
Originally, Yu Xiaogang didn't intend to kneel, but Tang Xiao was not Tang Hao. To avoid trouble from the Spirit Hall later, he wisely pulled Yu Xiaogang down to kneel as well.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Wu Qi sat on the throne symbolizing the authority of the Pope.
In an instant, everyone present cheered and jumped for joy, witnessing this historic moment.
Following that, accompanied by Qian Renxue and Qiangu Changkong, Wu Qi ascended to the second floor of the Papal Hall and faced all those attending the ceremony.
As the New Pope, he needs to deliver an inaugural address and briefly outline his future work direction.
After the above steps are completed, there will be a final Q&A session.
The Pope is a saint in the hearts of all Soul Master across the continent, so Wu Qi's every word and action can influence the dynamics of the Spirit Master world.
This Q&A session served as a way to convey his administrative plans to the entire Soul Spirit Master world Spirit Master world and give them confidence.
The first to ask a question was the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, which is the head of the Seven Great Sects.
Ning Fengzhi and Wu Qi had a close relationship, so naturally he wouldn't make things difficult for them. Instead, he took this opportunity to provide a helpful assist.
Upon hearing Ning Fengzhi's question and Wu Qi's answer, representatives from many factions present breathed a sigh of relief.
At least during Wu Qi's term, the policies of Soul Master Subsidy and providing free awakening of Martial Soul will continue to be implemented with all our might.
