Bibi Dong's Suspicions, Spirit Hall's Attention

He really couldn't suppress the curiosity in his heart.

If he didn't figure out Old Riven's identity, he probably wouldn't be able to sleep tonight.

"My identity? Hehe~ When the time is right, you'll naturally understand."

"Telling you now won't do you any good."

"For now, just focus on cultivating. Your cultivation method seems rather unusual. I can't offer you much help, only some conveniences."

Old Riven was puzzled as well.

Ye Mu's cultivation method seemed somewhat strange.

It differed from the meditation of ordinary soul masters.

He was rarely seen meditating, yet his Soul Power could always be found increasing.

Moreover, it increased at an astonishing rate, many times faster than that of other soul masters.

It was probably caused by the mutation of his martial soul.

Old Riven had no intention of investigating further.

After all, there were countless martial souls on Douluo Continent. There would always be some unusual ones.

The key was for Ye Mu to maintain this momentum so that he could truly grow stronger.

"I understand. Then, Mr. Old Riven, are you planning to send me to another academy?"

Since the other party was unwilling to say, there was no need to investigate it now.

In any case, it wasn't harmful to him.

After spending six years together, their relationship was quite good.

At the very least, Old Riven treated him very well.

"Spirit Hall Academy. It's a fine stage, and it also has excellent cultivation resources."

Old Riven stated it directly.

Ye Mu was secretly shocked.

He actually had connections like that?

Joining Spirit Hall Academy was no easy matter.

Aside from talent, one also needed a certain status.

Otherwise, one needed a recommender.

Of course, the core philosophy of Spirit Hall Academy was also to cultivate monsters, to cultivate true geniuses who could be used by Spirit Hall.

So, joining Spirit Hall truly wasn't easy.

Before joining, one would undergo all kinds of background investigations, especially regarding loyalty!

"Alright, get back to work. This old man will wander around for a bit."

As they spoke, the two had already returned to the Library.

Old Riven headed upstairs, while Ye Mu remained at the Management Office.

He couldn't afford to be careless when reading books to raise his Soul Power!

His Soul Power was currently level twenty-eight and was about to reach level twenty-nine.

He planned to break through to level thirty before graduation, so he would have a little confidence when joining Spirit Hall Academy in the future.

After all, Spirit Hall Academy truly had many geniuses.

It had gathered almost all the finest talents from across the continent.

With Spirit Hall's resources to rely on, progress would be even faster.

Without sufficient cultivation, it would be difficult to survive at Spirit Hall Academy.

He kept reading until the Library closed that evening, then packed up his things and returned to his residence.

He still had to write poetry tonight.

During his time outside, he had rarely had the opportunity to write poetry. His physical body's improvement had fallen slightly behind, so he had to hurry and make up for it.

Meanwhile, within Spirit Hall, Bibi Dong sat in the grand hall.

"Your Holiness, we have investigated every soul master in Spirit City who possesses a book-type martial soul. There are one hundred and seventy-five in total, but none match the target."

Chrysanthemum Douluo briefly reported the situation.

He was truly curious as to why the Pope was searching for a soul master with a book-type martial soul.

"None match the target?"

Bibi Dong furrowed her brows tightly.

Finding the author of the Storybook was very important to her.

She wanted to know what kind of ability this author possessed and why the author could foresee the future.

A soul master who could foresee the future was far too important to Spirit Hall.

With that person's ability, Spirit Hall would certainly be able to grow stronger and stronger, perhaps even truly rule the entire Douluo Continent.

They could build a powerful Spirit Hall Empire!

"Yes, but something very interesting happened at the Junior Soul Master Academy today."

"There was also a soul master who used a book-type martial soul..."

Chrysanthemum Douluo explained the situation.

He had only learned of this information at dusk.

But he hadn't taken it to heart.

He was just a little brat!

Bibi Dong frowned.

A child whose Soul Power had remained at half a level for six years had suddenly displayed Soul Power exceeding level ten at the mobilization meeting?

At twelve years old, Soul Power above level ten was indeed nothing remarkable. It was even utterly ordinary.

But the key was that the child's Soul Power seemed to have risen suddenly.

"Could he be the author of the Storybook? No, the author should be fairly old. It doesn't quite fit."

Bibi Dong pondered it, yet she still felt it was unlikely.

How could she believe that the Storybook's author was a twelve-year-old child?

She simply couldn't believe it.

"Your Holiness, should we bring that child here?"

"He works at the Library?"

"That's right. He's currently a Library administrator, and the Old Librarian is personally guiding him."

At those words, a chill flashed through Bibi Dong's beautiful eyes.

The Old Librarian?

"There's no need to bring him here. Just observe him in secret. He should be a very interesting child. Perhaps he has some secret!"

Bibi Dong made her decision immediately.

A child personally guided by the Old Librarian must possess something extraordinary.

Otherwise, how could he make that old fellow value him so highly?

He had even personally gone to the academy to stand up for him.

"Are you sure we shouldn't bring him back directly?"

"No need."

Bibi Dong shook her head.

There was no need to provoke that old fellow over a child.

If she were not the Pope, she probably wouldn't even know that old man's identity.

That old fellow was terrifying!

Knowing the other party's identity, she naturally had no desire to provoke him.

Chrysanthemum Douluo was rather curious.

He had actually seen a trace of gravity in the Pope's eyes.

It couldn't possibly be because of a child.

Then it could only be because of the Old Librarian.

Could that Old Librarian possess something extraordinary?

Though he thought so, he had no intention of investigating for now.

Curiosity killed the cat. He had no desire to dig his own grave.

Ye Mu had no idea that Spirit Hall had already set its sights on him. After finishing his poetry, he began working on the story.

He opened the Storybook and found that no one had urged him to update.

"This batch of Book Friends is no good. None of them are even urging me to update?"

So far, only Xiao Wu and Bibi Dong had urged him to update.

And the story had already reached its fourth arc!

The third arc was about Zhu Zhuqing and Dai Mubai, while the fourth was about Ning Rongrong and Oscar.

Yet neither of them had urged him to update even now!

Completing update requests could accelerate Martial Soul Evolution.

Although his martial soul had already completed an evolution, there was still a progress bar!

In other words, the Wordless Heavenly Book could continue evolving.

What it would eventually evolve into, he truly couldn't say yet.

In any case, the improvements brought by evolution were extremely terrifying. It had even directly fed back so many levels of Soul Power to him.

Thus, Martial Soul Evolution could also be considered a way to increase Soul Power, an utterly overpowered method of improvement!

"Looks like I need to cast a wider net. There'll always be someone who wants to urge me to update."

He opened the Book Review Section and looked through the discussions of the various Book Friends.

He could identify their identities from their nicknames.

After playing eeny, meeny, miny, moe for a while, he finally decided on a new story arc.

"Qian Renxue, it's you!"

He ultimately chose Qian Renxue.

Since he had already updated Bibi Dong's story, he might as well write hers too.

Given Qian Renxue's personality, she should urge him to update.

And she was also an incredibly wealthy woman. Her update requests should bring him even greater rewards.
