Lu Fan followed obediently behind Yue Guan and Gui Mei.

As soon as they entered the hall, he saw a woman sitting upon the imperial throne, holding the scepter that represented the Pope's authority. She had long, curly, powder-purple hair, skin whiter than snow, and exquisite features. Wearing a purple-gold crown and a gown adorned with gemstones, she possessed a noble and sacred temperament, her expression cold, beautiful, and majestic.

"Your Holiness the Pope."

Yue Guan and Gui Mei both bowed to her in unison.

Lu Fan followed suit, saying, "Your Holiness the Pope."

Bibi Dong, seated upon the throne, nodded. "Rise."

One could tell from her customary etiquette and actions

that Bibi Dong had long harbored intentions of declaring herself Empress.

She moved the scepter in her hand, and Yue Guan and Gui Mei immediately took the hint.

The two moved a step to the left and right, fully revealing Lu Fan who had been standing behind them.

Lu Fan raised his eyes to meet the gaze of the most powerful woman on the continent today.

He was instantly struck by a sense of dread, hurriedly lowering his head, not daring to look at her again.

From that moment, Lu Fan felt as if he had been targeted by a ferocious beast, and cold sweat broke out all over his body.

Such terrifying presence... No, this feeling... Could she really be releasing her Martial Soul and the aura of a Super Douluo just to intimidate me?

Lu Fan's mind raced with countless thoughts.

Bibi Dong intends to become Empress, so it's only natural for her to learn some imperial tactics. Those emperors love to intimidate people like this; perhaps this woman is doing the same.

Seeing Lu Fan lower his head, unable to hide the panic on his face, a faint smile curled at the corners of Bibi Dong's lips.

"Yesterday, Elder Ju introduced you to this Pope as a genius. He praised you to the heavens, which has made this Pope very curious."

"He said your Martial Soul is even more thoroughly mutated than his own. Come, let this Pope see your Martial Soul."

Bibi Dong's tone was extremely flat, yet these plain words carried a sense of command that made it impossible to refuse.

Lu Fan complied obediently and summoned his Martial Soul.

It was a large, vibrant flower with purple petals and golden stamens. The petals were fuzzy, scentless, and tasteless, with tall stamens and golden light flickering at the tips.

The stem was straight, purple tinged with gold, and the flower rested quietly in Lu Fan's hand.

Seeing that Bibi Dong wanted to see Lu Fan's spirit rings, Yue Guan, standing to the side, was tense to the extreme.

Although he had prepared excuses for when they were exposed yesterday, he was not yet ready for it to happen so soon.

Gui Mei, who also understood the gravity of the situation, was equally nervous.

Fortunately, Lu Fan was not foolish and did not reveal his spirit rings.

Bibi Dong did not find anything amiss and remained silent.

Bibi Dong commented, "It is indeed somewhat unique."

A dark glimmer flashed in Bibi Dong's hand, and a bracelet appeared.

She tossed the bracelet toward Lu Fan.

Lu Fan hurriedly caught it.

He then looked at Bibi Dong in confusion.

Bibi Dong smiled slightly. "Lu Fan, you are one of the most talented disciples of this generation in our Martial Soul Hall. Consider this a welcoming gift from this Pope."

Yue Guan, standing to the side, quickly prompted, "Hurry and thank the Pope."

Lu Fan hurriedly thanked her, "Many thanks, Your Holiness the Pope."

Bibi Dong nodded and looked at Yue Guan, asking, "Elder Ju, how do you intend to cultivate him?"

Yue Guan replied without hesitation, "It would be best to keep him by my side, but I have official duties and cannot teach him every day. I will have him attend classes at the Martial Soul Academy."

Bibi Dong nodded. "Then have him join the same class as Nana and the others. I believe that with his talent, it won't take long for him to catch up."

"Although Nana and the others are a few years older than Lu Fan, they can still be considered peers. They are all the future of our Martial Soul Hall, and they should spend more time together in private."

Bibi Dong added.

Yue Guan quickly responded, "The Pope is right. I will take him to meet them in a moment."

Satisfied with Yue Guan's attitude, Bibi Dong nodded. "Very good. I trust you to handle this. You may leave."

"This subordinate takes his leave."

The three bowed and withdrew.

After leaving the Pope Palace, Yue Guan said to Lu Fan, "Let's go, I will take you to meet the other geniuses."

Lu Fan nodded and followed.

On the way, Yue Guan reminded Lu Fan, "The Pope having you interact with them is likely because she hopes you can assist the child she calls Nana."

"Her name is Hu Liena, and she is the Pope's disciple. She is six years older than you and is currently only a level 29 Soul Grand Master."

"As the Pope's disciple, she has long been designated as the Saintess of Martial Soul Hall, but the difficulty of her succeeding as the next Pope is by no means small. This is why the Pope hopes you can interact with her more."

Lu Fan nodded, listening attentively to what Yue Guan had to say.

In his heart, he also compared himself to other geniuses of his generation.

There was no doubt that Lu Fan's talent was absolutely the best among them.

Looking at the current Douluo Continent, apart from Qian Renxue, no one could compare to him.

And this sole existence had actually slacked off in her cultivation, giving Lu Fan the opportunity to surpass her.

Take the Tang Great God King as an example.

The Tang Great God King was only level 29 at the age of twelve.

Yet Lu Fan was on track to achieve this feat before the age of ten.

After all, many of the things one could hear at a time like this were not present in the original work.

"Besides Nana, there are two other decent geniuses in this batch. They are both seven years older than you. You can introduce yourselves when you meet in a moment."

Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo personally escorted Lu Fan to Martial Soul Academy.

They walked along the road in such a swaggering, uninhibited manner.

This act could also be considered as building momentum for Lu Fan.

This child is under our protection; be careful when you see him in the future, and don't harbor any crooked thoughts.

Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo were the two major faces of Martial Soul Hall.

In this Martial Soul City, there was almost no one who did not recognize them.

This matter quickly spread throughout Martial Soul City.

For a time, there was much discussion.

Everyone speculated about who exactly Lu Fan was.

"There have long been rumors in the streets that Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan and Ghost Douluo Gui Mei are as inseparable as the Dragon Duke and Snake Granny."

"Especially since Chrysanthemum Douluo is a... perhaps this child is an adopted son taken in by the two of them together."

"To be adopted by two Title Douluo, what great luck."

Unofficial history might not be wild enough, but it was certainly historical enough.

After the three arrived at Martial Soul Academy, having received word early on that two Title Douluo were heading their way with a child, the academy's education committee, nine Soul Douluo, and a group of teachers had long been waiting outside the gate.

Upon learning that the two Douluo were coming, the three members of the Golden Generation, who had good relations with them, were naturally also waiting outside.

When the two arrived, the nine Soul Douluo immediately led the teachers in a respectful shout: "Welcome, Elder Chrysanthemum and Elder Ghost, for gracing the academy with your presence to guide our work."

Gui Mei did not speak, not wanting to acknowledge these people, maintaining his aloof demeanor.

Instead, Yue Guan stepped forward and waved his hand, saying, "I have come this time to bring my newly accepted disciple, Lu Fan, to register at the academy."

Hearing this, everyone was shocked.

They cast their gazes toward Lu Fan, who stood behind Yue Guan and Gui Mei.
