White World, Spirit Hall.

Just like yesterday, the Elders of the Worship Hall, Yu Xiaogang, and Bibi Dong were present, with Hu Liena now joining them to watch the spectacle.

The group had gathered together to see today's content.

Looking at the people around him, Yu Xiaogang raised a hand to his forehead.

"Hu Liena is one thing, but Grand Pontiff, can't you watch from your own Worship Hall?"

"Why do you have to come here to watch?"

Hearing Yu Xiaogang's words, Qian Daoliu revealed a faint smile.

"Naturally, because you're involved in this."

"If there's anything we don't understand while watching the Heavenly Screen, we can ask you directly if you're nearby."

Golden Crocodile Douluo, standing to the side, nodded in wholehearted agreement.

"That's right. Besides, I think things like this are only interesting when watched with a group."

The other Elders immediately echoed Golden Crocodile Douluo's words, saying they loved this kind of lively viewing.

Looking at the group of Elders around him, who had become somewhat unruly, Yu Xiaogang was speechless.

What a sight. A group of people standing at the very pinnacle of Douluo Continent, at the peak even among Titled Douluos, were actually like this in private.

If Spirit Hall's lower-ranking personnel saw this, their eyes would probably pop out of their heads!

"All right, Xiao Gang. If the Grand Pontiff and the others want to watch, let them. It's not hurting anything anyway."

"But then again, giving Little Dragon a Spirit Ring from a Pig-type Soul Beast?"

Bibi Dong glanced at Yu Xiaogang, feeling an urge to mock him but not knowing where to begin.

"All I can say is that Little Dragon has suffered eight lifetimes of bad luck by following him."

Yu Xiaogang voiced what Bibi Dong had wanted to say.

"Yes, exactly! I even feel a little sorry for Little Dragon over there. Such a powerful Martial Soul, yet it ended up with a holder like this."

Bibi Dong looked at Yu Xiaogang on the Heavenly Screen with open disdain.

His talent was poor to begin with, yet he refused to listen to the advice of the strong. No wonder he could not compare to her husband.

[The video continued...]

[After a heated dispute, Yu Yuanzhen still insisted on adding a dragon-type Spirit Ring to Luo Sanpao.]

[Yu Xiaogang likewise firmly believed that he was right.]

[Neither was willing to yield, so Yu Xiaogang decided to obtain the Spirit Ring himself.]

[Thunder Fang Pigs could be found in Thunderclap Forest, not far from Blue Lightning City. He only needed to spend some money to hire nearby soul masters to help him obtain a Spirit Ring.]

[He acted as soon as he decided. The next day, while Yu Yuanzhen was busy with clan affairs, Yu Xiaogang quickly packed his luggage, took some money from home, and set out to obtain his first Spirit Ring.]

[After leaving the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, Yu Xiaogang hurried through the town, heading straight for Thunderclap Forest.]

[Before long, Yu Xiaogang successfully arrived at the edge of Thunderclap Forest.]

[There, he hired a Soul Hunting Squad for one thousand Gold Soul Coins.]

[Looking at the Soul Hunting Squad subdued by his money, Yu Xiaogang proudly raised his chin.]

[This would be the only time he hired people to help him obtain a Spirit Ring.]

[Once he successfully obtained his first Spirit Ring and proved his conclusion was correct, the clan's experts would help him obtain Spirit Rings in the future.]

[From then on, under the guidance of his theories, he would gradually grow into a powerful expert.]

[Poor talent?]

[Talent could not restrain him. He would prove to everyone that even with utterly terrible talent, he could change everything with his wisdom.]

[With that thought, Yu Xiaogang glanced at the Soul Hunting Squad, whose members were beaming with joy after receiving one thousand Gold Soul Coins.]

["Hmph, a bunch of blind fools. They can only see the money in front of them and have no idea what they missed out on today."]

[After giving the people he had hired a contemptuous glance, Yu Xiaogang began imagining the day when his name would shake Douluo Continent.]

[By then, information about him would surely be spread everywhere.]

[When these people saw information about him and recalled what happened today, they would surely beat their chests in regret.]

[They had failed to properly curry favor with a future powerhouse in his youth. What an enormous loss that would be.]

["All right, let's go!"]

[Seeing that the group was still celebrating, Yu Xiaogang spoke up to remind them.]

["Right away, sir. A Thunder Fang Pig, right? We guarantee you'll be satisfied!"]

[Upon hearing Yu Xiaogang's words, the members of the Soul Hunting Squad walked up with cheerful grins.]

[Of course, they had noticed Yu Xiaogang's lofty attitude and the way he looked down on them.]

[But what did that matter? This was one thousand Gold Soul Coins!]

[According to the market prices around Thunderclap Forest, joining a Soul Hunting Squad and acting with the team normally cost ten Gold Soul Coins per day.]

[If an individual directly hired an entire squad to serve them, the price was generally between fifty and five hundred Gold Soul Coins.]

[Anyone willing to pay five hundred Gold Soul Coins needed a very dangerous Soul Beast, one around four or five hundred years old.]

[For someone like Yu Xiaogang, who was obtaining his first Spirit Ring yet could offer one thousand Gold Soul Coins outright, that was a once-in-a-century occurrence.]

[If possible, they would even be willing to worship someone like him.]

[After making preparations, the Soul Hunting Squad brought Yu Xiaogang to the entrance of the forest.]

[The Soul Hunting Squad had originally been prepared to present their permit, but Yu Xiaogang stepped forward first and took out a token.]

[When the soldier responsible for inspecting permits saw the token, he immediately revealed a respectful expression.]

["Boss, what kind of token is that?"]

[A member of the Soul Hunting Squad curiously asked their captain.]

["Tsk, I thought he was just some rich guy. I didn't expect his identity to be extraordinary as well."]

["That's a high-ranking token from Spirit Hall. Ordinary people aren't qualified to possess one."]

["I heard there are only a few in all of Douluo Continent. We're only aware of them because we're close to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan."]

[The captain of the Soul Hunting Squad spoke with a grave expression.]

["Captain, you mean...?"]

["That's right. That guy is most likely from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, and someone with an extraordinary background at that. I just don't know why someone like him would hire us to hunt a Soul Beast for him."]

[The Soul Hunting Squad followed behind Yu Xiaogang, discussing the matter among themselves.]

[Seeing the solemn expressions on the faces of the Soul Hunting Squad behind him, Yu Xiaogang could not help but feel delighted.]

[Fortunately, he had secretly brought out his father's Pope's Token. Otherwise, he would have needed to use the Soul Hunting Squad's permit to enter the Soul Hunting Forest. Wouldn't that have made people look down on him?]

[This look of shock on everyone's faces was far more in line with Yu Xiaogang's expectations.]

[However, Yu Xiaogang was still somewhat dissatisfied.]

["I'm holding Father's Pope's Token right now. I'm still borrowing Father's influence."]

["Just wait. Sooner or later, I will have a Pope's Token that belongs to me!"]

["I believe that day isn't too far away."]
