Soul Tool Masters Association
Spirit City.
As agreed, after attending Wu Qi's Coronation Ceremony, Feng Xiaotian and the others immediately set off for the Far North Training.
Wu Qi was busy with official duties and could not get away for the time being, so he sent the others off through the Qiangu Changkong.
"Take care, everyone. Wu Ge and I are not without help in the Papal Hall, so we won't encounter any trouble," Qiangu Changkong said with a smile.
Unlike Bibi Dong, Wu Qi was born into the Worship Hall, and the strength of the Worship Hall's experts surpassed that of any Elder. With the support of the Worship Hall, the other Elder naturally couldn't cause any trouble.
It can be said that since Wu Qi took office, the high-ranking members of the Spirit Hall have united as one and are no longer as opposed to each other as before.
With the help of Feng Xiaotian and others, the backlog of government affairs in the Papal Hall has been dealt with these past few days, which will make things much easier for Wu Qi in the future.
Feng Xiaotian and the others said their goodbyes without saying much, and then got into the carriage and set off.
He couldn't rest for Qiangu Changkong; he needed to fulfill Wu Qi's instructions and summon the relevant personnel to the Papal Hall.
Zhao Chenggong and Lou Gao were the first to be affected. The development of Soul Tool Technology was Wu Qi's top priority, so naturally, arrangements were made for them first.
Papal Hall.
Looking at Wu Qi on the high seat, Lou Gao and Zhao Chenggong had complicated expressions.
When they first met Wu Qi, they only thought he was a high-ranking member of the Spirit Hall. They never expected that he would become the leader of the Spirit Hall in the blink of an eye.
Because of their special identities and their secret research into Soul Tool, neither of them attended the previous Coronation Ceremony; moreover, both of them were research fanatics who locked themselves in the laboratory all day and were not sensitive to changes in the outside world.
Wu Qi asked, "Grandmaster Zhao, how's the Soul Tool Technology training going lately?"
At this point, Zhao Chenggong's smile became undisguised.
Although Lou Gao is old and lacks theoretical knowledge of Soul Tool, don't forget that he is the foremost of the Three Great Divine Blacksmiths on the continent.
Forging Soul Tool is not much different from forging high-grade ironware. Lou Gao already had a high level of skill in forging parts. After learning about the energy storage device of Soul Tool, he made rapid progress. In just a few months of study, he became Third-level Soul Master.
If we disregard whether the foundation is solid, the Lou Gao already reaches the threshold of Level 5 Soul Engineer.
However, the further along the process, the more complex the creation of Soul Tool became, and the arrangement of the energy storage devices was a particularly troublesome problem, which temporarily slowed down Lou Gao's progress.
Besides, Lou Gao's disciples have achieved quite a bit.
Wu Qi nodded slightly and continued, "President Lou Gao, I have fulfilled my promise."
He paused, then added, "From today onwards, let's rename the Blacksmiths' Association the Soul Tool Association. President Lou Gao, you should break through to the Soul Engineer level as soon as possible, and then work with Grandmaster Zhao to research more advanced Soul Tool."
"Furthermore, you should train a group of talents capable of independently producing third-tier and lower-tier Soul Tool as soon as possible. In the future, I will establish Soul Tool Department at the Spirit Hall Academy and gradually promote it throughout the entire continent."
After spending these days with Zhao Chenggong, Lou Gao's mindset has undergone a significant change.
Originally, Lou Gao would only pass on his skills to his apprentices, but when he remembered that the Soul Tool Technology had disappeared from the Douluo Continent, he realized the undesirability of this method of inheritance.
If Soul Tool Technology can be popularized on the continent, it will not only not disappear in the future, but will also create countless geniuses in the field of Soul Tool, leading to the vigorous development of Soul Tool Technology.
At the same time, for the Soul Engineer (formerly blacksmiths) group, this is undoubtedly a leap in status.
Lou Gao had no reason to refuse and immediately said, "Your His Holiness the Pope, I will personally oversee this matter. However, I may be lacking in teaching skills, but my disciple Si Yu is quite eloquent and has recently trained several Second-level Soul Master within the Blacksmiths' Association. If Your Holiness needs a teacher specializing in Soul Tool, Si Yu would be a very good fit."
Wu Qi nodded in response. "Professional matters should naturally be left to professionals. As for the teachers, you can make your own arrangements and try to train a group of qualified teachers within six months. Then, I will open pilot courses within the Spirit Hall."
"The students of the academy have no background in blacksmithing, so you need to prepare your lessons in advance to avoid any mistakes."
After arranging the Soul Tool matter, Wu Qi couldn't rest yet.
After Zhao Chenggong and Lou Gao left, the two Titled Douluo, Snake Lance Pufferfish, along with Hu Liena, arrived at the Papal Hall.
If Qian Renxue were to inherit the Pope Position instead of Wu Qi, then the two Titled Douluo, Snake Lance Pufferfish, would become the Hall Guardian Douluo of the Papal Hall.
These two had grown up alongside Qian Renxue since childhood and had a very close relationship. However, in order to properly settle Chrysanthemum Ghost Douluo and stabilize the situation within the Spirit Hall, Wu Qi had no choice but to negotiate with Qian Renxue and give them the position of Hall Guardian Douluo of the Hall of Judgment.
In this way, Snake Lance and Porcupine Douluo became the biggest "victims," Wu Qi summoned them here to give them appropriate compensation.
"Greetings, Your His Holiness the Pope." The five men bowed in unison.
The Snake Lance and the Porcupine Douluo looked at Wu Qi with unusually complex expressions.
Qian Renxue explained Wu Qi's arrangement to the two of them, saying it wasn't to deliberately exclude them, but rather to balance the interests within the Spirit Hall.
However, since their interests had been balanced out, they harbored some resentment. But they all knew Wu Qi's strength, so they naturally wouldn't show it, only feeling that their own strength was insufficient to squeeze into the Core Circle.
Wu Qi glanced at the five people, sighed softly, and said, "Elder, I know you have some grievances in your hearts."
The two men were alarmed and quickly replied, "We have no complaints."
Wu Qi waved his hand and continued, "The reason I've summoned the five of you here is naturally because I have new arrangements for you."
"I intend to form Cabinet, with the five of you assisting me in handling official business within the Papal Hall."
Wu Qi is not Bibi Dong. His identity is recognized by all the high-ranking members of the Spirit Hall, so he doesn't need to Bibi Dong did in order to firmly grasp power.
Wu Qi is still young, and he will need to spend most of his time cultivating. Since his position is unshakeable, it wouldn't be bad to find some helpers for himself.
While Qiangu Changkong's abilities are certainly impressive, he still needs to cultivate them; we shouldn't burden him with too much responsibility.
Hu Liena and the other two had studied political affairs under Bibi Dong and had rich experience. In order to take care of their cultivation, Wu Qi added the Snake Lance and Porcupine Douluo.
These two had worked with Qian Renxue in the Heaven Dou Palace and had accumulated rich experience in handling government affairs. With them at the head and Hu Liena and the other two as assistants, this Cabinet team would be perfectly fine.
The Snake Lance and the Porcupine Douluo were extremely surprised.
Although the Cabinet was a new institution established by Wu Qi, its name alone tells us that it was only responsible to Wu Qi.
Knowing his opportunity had arrived, Snake Lance Douluo hurriedly asked, "Your His Holiness the Pope, what is the role and duty of the Cabinet?"
