"This is incredible! The Martial Soul Hall Saint is actually from the Naruto Continent?!"
"This can't be fake! Since he's from the Uchiha Clan, the Sharingan will prove it the moment it appears!"
"Someone from another continent can become Spirit Hall's Holy Son?"
"Spirit Hall is way too open-minded!"
"If this is true, I'm really tempted! Someone without the slightest background can become the Holy Son! Isn't that far better than the empires and other sects?"
"And that Poison Douluo actually reached level 95! Spirit Hall really treats its own people well!"
"I'm joining Spirit Hall right now. Yu Zhi was right—maybe I'll be the next Holy Son!"
Spirit Hall, Worship Hall
The many worshippers looked at one another, all wearing strange expressions.
"Uh... is our Spirit Hall really that great?"
After struggling for a long while, Mighty Lion Douluo finally said it aloud!
In Yu Zhi's words, Spirit Hall was practically becoming heaven!
As a Spirit Hall worshipper, he had always believed Spirit Hall was much stronger than other factions, but not that much stronger!
"That kid became the Holy Son because of his extraordinary talent and the tremendous contributions he made, yet he didn't mention any of that! Listening to him, even I thought anyone who came here could become Spirit Hall's Holy Son!"
Thousand Jun Douluo said speechlessly.
"Still, Dugu Bo actually broke through to level 95! We have benefits like that?!" Falling Devil Douluo felt that the current Spirit Hall was somewhat unfamiliar!
Golden Crocodile Douluo opened his mouth, yet could not say a word!
Qian Daoliu took a deep breath and raised a hand to his forehead, torn between laughter and tears.
"That cunning brat! He only gave half the information, and even I was tempted by it! Still, this is an enormous benefit for Spirit Hall! I can't imagine how many people across the continent will join us!"
Then his expression turned strange, filled with astonishment. "As for Dugu Bo breaking through to level 95, I haven't heard anything about it either. Other than gods, what could have such an effect on a Title Douluo?"
"Could Bibi Dong have something that good?"
Guang Ling Douluo was confused, but deeply tempted as well!
He did not dare imagine how frenzied those Soul Sages and Soul Douluos would become once they learned Spirit Hall could raise the levels of Title Douluos!
"Once that brat Yu Zhi is done, have him give us an explanation!"
Qian Daoliu was now suffering and rejoicing at once. He was delighted that Spirit Hall would reach its most glorious era in history! But the problem was that the Pope was not from their Worship Hall!
It seemed he needed to consider making that brat Yu Zhi his granddaughter's husband!
He knew Bibi Dong's capabilities well! All of this definitely had something to do with Yu Zhi!
Spirit Hall, Pope Palace
"Congratulations, Your Holiness! The Holy Son has rendered another great service! After this speech, countless people will surely flock to our Spirit Hall!"
Chrysanthemum Douluo stepped forward to offer congratulations, his face brimming with delight.
He was now utterly convinced by Yu Zhi. After following Bibi Dong for over a decade, he had gained nothing. Yet after following Yu Zhi on a single mission, he had obtained the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum!
This showed just how important it was to have a good boss!
"That kid really is restless!"
Bibi Dong said so, but everyone present could clearly see the satisfaction in her eyes!
"Teacher, why didn't Yu Zhi mention me? I'm the Holy Maiden! I'm an orphan too, wouldn't that work as well?"
Hu Liena felt ignored. Moreover, Yu Zhi's gaze over the past few days had been rather strange—exceptionally kind and affectionate!
Bibi Dong gave her a peculiar look!
"Perhaps Xiao Zhi forgot, Nana! Don't mind it!"
What else could she say? That before Hu Liena called him Grandmaster, that brat would not give her any benefits?
Forget it. She would let that brat handle this relationship himself!
Heaven Dou Empire, Imperial Palace
"Bastard, wretch! He is digging at the foundations of my Heaven Dou Empire!" Xue Ye stared at the Sky Screen, trembling with rage as he roared.
Even when Dugu Bo had secretly defected to Spirit Hall, he had not been this furious.
Marshal Ge Long wore a face full of worry. "Your Majesty! The situation has become grave. After this, Spirit Hall will surely become the most sought-after faction on the continent. Even a Title Douluo can rise four levels in a short time. One can imagine how terrifying the advancement speed of low-level Soul Masters must be."
"Our Heaven Dou already has fewer high-level combatants than Spirit Hall. We must make preparations in advance!"
Xue Ye glared resentfully at Yu Zhi, who was grinning foolishly on the Sky Screen.
"Issue an order immediately. Increase Soul Master cultivation resources throughout the empire, granting favorable treatment to all regardless of cultivation level! At the same time, spread word that Spirit Hall has only a limited number of such heaven-defying treasures, and ordinary disciples have no chance of using them!"
"Crown Prince, what do you think?"
Having said that, he turned to Qian Renxue, who was disguised as a prince, wishing to hear her proposal.
"Father, your method is already the best possible solution. Only Yu Zhi's words, 'You may be the next Holy Son or Holy Maiden,' are excessively bewitching and most likely to sway people's hearts."
"How could I not know that?! Those are precisely the words shaking our foundation! But what can we do? Those lunatics in Spirit Hall actually gave the position of Holy Son to someone from another continent!"
"Let's proceed this way for now!"
Xue Ye waved his hand helplessly. He could not possibly promise away the throne or the position of Crown Prince!
If he really did that, the first person to laugh at him would be that old bastard from Star Luo!
Qian Renxue was also utterly shocked! She had originally intended to see how Yu Zhi would resolve the exposure of his Naruto Continent identity!
She had never expected him to promote Spirit Hall instead!
You are the next Holy Son!
He had completely turned this matter into his own advantage!
Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect
"Good lad! This Martial Soul Hall Saint really is a genius!"
Ning Fengzhi held a cup of clear tea, his eyes filled with admiration.
"Yes! Fengzhi, that kid is digging at the roots of every major sect and empire!" Bone Douluo saw through the truth at a glance.
"Dad, Grandpa Bone, doesn't that mean we're in danger too?!"
Ning Rongrong became somewhat anxious after hearing this!
"Hahaha, Rongrong! We aren't the most anxious ones yet!"
Bone Douluo rubbed her head and laughed.
"The most anxious should be those small sects. They lack resources and have plenty of sect rules! Then there are the two great empires! Their powers are too vast, so injustice is bound to occur!"
Ning Fengzhi set down his teacup and slowly explained, "Rongrong, remember this: our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect has few members and abundant resources! This matter does not affect us much!"
Then he looked at his daughter, deliberately testing her. "So tell me, should we intervene in this matter?"
"Of course we should!" Ning Rongrong curled her lips.
"Since I was little, you taught me that when the lips are gone, the teeth grow cold! If all the other powers decline, and only we remain in the end, we will merely be isolated and helpless, at others' mercy!"
Ning Fengzhi nodded in satisfaction, but then said sternly.
"No, Rongrong. This time, we will remain still and observe for now."
"Why?" Ning Rongrong could not understand. This differed from the education she had received since childhood!
"If this Ninjutsu opportunity falls into the hands of the sects, everyone can still unite, share the inheritance, and resist Spirit Hall together."
"But if Spirit Hall obtains all the opportunities, the major factions will only begin harboring ulterior motives, perhaps even being recruited and turned by them directly."
"On top of that, there is a monster like Yu Zhi! He actually did something unprecedented by promoting Spirit Hall before the entire continent!"
"Even I was tempted after hearing that speech!"
"With that reputation, along with obtaining Ninjutsu, Spirit Hall's rise has already become unstoppable. Even if the two great empires joined forces with all the sects, they would struggle to stop it."
Ning Fengzhi's gaze was profound, his tone grave. "We should begin considering our future way out early."
Ning Rongrong was quick-witted and instantly understood his meaning. She asked softly, "Dad, could the way out you mean be seeking refuge with Spirit Hall?"
The hall instantly fell into silence. No one answered, but that silence was the clearest answer.
