The Pope Orders Them to Wait for Tang San, and Bibi Dong's Little Scheme

She smiled excitedly and said, "Thank you, Teacher!"

Then, her heart pounding nervously, she reached out.

She took the God-Given Hundred-Thousand-Year Spirit Ring, glowing with a scarlet light, into her hand.

A delighted smile lifted her lips, and she felt secretly rather pleased with herself.

The girl cupped the God-Given Spirit Ring in both hands.

With gratitude in her eyes, she bowed toward the Silver-Haired Man on the cushion and said:

"Thank you, Senior!"

Lin Feng replied calmly:

"This is the reward you received for completing the Star Official Challenge."

"It has nothing to do with me. You don't need to thank me."

As he spoke, he sent a mysterious energy surging into the air.

A third Challenge Gold Stele appeared.

The words "Spirit" were engraved at the top of the stele.

Hu Liena's name appeared in first place on the rankings.

Seeing that the man was still keeping everyone at arm's length, Hu Liena pouted and muttered softly:

"Senior, why are you always so cold?"

"Is something wrong with your body?"

Her words had barely left her mouth when Lin Feng's lips twitched.

What man wouldn't be moved by a beauty like Hu Liena, with her fair skin and long legs?

But right now, he was a Star Official.

And they were in public. If they could have a more intimate conversation in private, that would be nice.

Lin Feng glared at Hu Liena, sending her a look of displeasure.

Hu Liena was badly startled, realizing he had heard her muttering.

She quickly bowed and apologized:

"Senior, Hu Liena knows she was wrong!"

"I shouldn't have offended you. I shouldn't have run my mouth!"

The girl raised her hand and pretended to slap herself in the face.

Then she turned and scurried off the platform.

Seeing Hu Liena's adorable side, Lin Feng smiled.

The Pope, Bibi Dong, happened to notice this little gesture...

"Teacher, I got a God-Given Hundred-Thousand-Year Spirit Ring. Look!"

Hu Liena came before Bibi Dong.

She held out the Spirit Ring in her hands, beaming with pride.

Yue Guan and Gui Mei, along with the other Titled Douluo,

and Xie Yue and Yan all hurried over excitedly.

Bibi Dong's attention was drawn to the God-Given Spirit Ring. She reached out and gently stroked her disciple's head.

She praised her, saying, "Nana, you did well!"

"With this God-Given Hundred-Thousand-Year Spirit Ring,"

"your strength will make a huge leap once you absorb it!"

Hu Liena looked just like a child who had been praised.

Her cheeks flushed as she giggled and said:

"I'll work even harder at cultivation from now on."

"I won't let down your expectations, Teacher... or Senior's!"

Watching the girl's expression,

everyone couldn't help looking toward the Silver-Haired Man seated on the cushion at the center of the platform.

If Hu Liena could win Senior's favor,

it would be a tremendous blessing for Spirit Hall.

Who knew? If Lin Feng was in a good mood, perhaps he would give them more Lucky Star Feathers.

Nearby, Ghost Leopard Douluo stared at the Gold Stele that had appeared in the sky.

He shouted excitedly, "Your Holiness, Saintess!"

"Look! A third Challenge Gold Stele has appeared in the sky!"

"This one is the 'Spirit' type!"

"Saintess, you're in first place again!"

Everyone looked up, remembering the rewards given every three days.

They couldn't help feeling envious.

As if she had thought of something, Hu Liena shoved the God-Given Spirit Ring into Bibi Dong's hands.

She said hurriedly, "Teacher, hold on to this God-Given Spirit Ring for me!"

Then she turned and ran back toward the platform.

Without the Lucky Golden Feather, she wasn't blocked by the Defense Array.

The sight left everyone utterly dumbfounded.

Many people tried to climb onto the platform, only to be blasted away by the Defense Array.

Lin Feng looked through a narrow sliver beneath his eyelids.

He saw Hu Liena running onto the platform.

He slowly opened his eyes and said:

"Hu Liena, what else do you need?"

Hu Liena bowed earnestly, her little face bright with excitement.

She pointed at the Gold Stele in the sky and asked eagerly:

"May I ask, Senior, I'm now in first place on two Challenge Steles."

"Does that mean... I'll receive two rewards every three days?"

Lin Feng nodded. "That's right."

Then he added:

"One person can receive settlement rewards from several Gold Steles at the same time. There's no limit."

Hu Liena was so happy that her heart nearly burst with joy.

Without thinking, she rushed forward, spreading her arms as if to hug him.

Lin Feng caught the sweet feminine fragrance wafting toward him and rather enjoyed it.

But when he came to his senses, he raised a hand and conjured a barrier. His voice turned cold:

"Don't come any closer!"

Hu Liena ran straight into the barrier and staggered back a few steps.

Her cheeks flushed slightly. She stuck out her tongue, looking bashful, and said:

"Sorry, I forgot about that!"

"Oh, right, Senior!"

"Who got today's third Lucky Star Feather?"

"Could you tell me?"

A playful glint flashed in Lin Feng's eyes as he said:

"Like you, Tang San got a Lucky Golden Feather yesterday and today."

"He didn't come to take the Star Official Challenge yesterday."

"I wonder if he'll come today."

He feigned regret as he watched Bibi Dong's expression below the platform.

But the woman's face instantly turned icy, and a terrifying killing intent surged around her.

Chapter 14: The Pope Orders Them to Wait for Tang San, and Bibi Dong's Little Scheme

For a moment, Lin Feng's words rang out,

reaching Hu Liena and everyone below the platform.

Three years ago, at the finals of the All-Continent Elite Soul Master Tournament,

Tang San had led the Shrek Academy Team in Spirit City.

They defeated the Spirit Hall Team, led by Hu Liena, Xie Yue, and Yan,

and won first place in the tournament.

He had been unrivaled, taking the Soul Master World by storm.

At the time, Tang San had only been a Soul Ancestor.

Yet with Twin Martial Souls and his Second Spirit, the Clear Sky Hammer,

and Hidden Weapons to support him, he had turned the tide and created a miracle.

To Hu Liena and the others,

Tang San was their greatest humiliation, and they hated him deeply.

And there was more. Later, Pope Bibi Dong had led the Titled Douluo elders

in an attempt to capture Xiao Wu, whose true form was a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soft Bone Rabbit.

But Tang Hao of the Clear Sky Sect, who had vanished for years, had rescued her.

The Pope Palace had suffered severe destruction.

It had become a disgrace for Spirit Hall,

and for three years, they had been a laughingstock in the Soul Master World.

Throughout those three years, Pope Bibi Dong

had sent countless people across the continent to search for traces of Tang Hao and Tang San.

But they had found nothing.

She had never imagined that Tang San would get a Lucky Star Feather.

And not just once—he had gotten one two days in a row.

"Elders of Spirit Hall, all Titled Douluo, hear my command!"

"Secure this platform!"

"Do not let anything go wrong!"

"If Tang San dares to come take the Star Official Challenge today!"
