She reached out and gently touched the Defense Array.

Finding that it didn't repel her, she walked straight through.

Bibi Dong's face lit up with delight as she strode onto the platform.

She stopped two meters in front of the cushion.

Holding the Gem Scepter in her left hand, she planted it on the ground.

Smiling, she said:

"Senior, I'm Nana's teacher, Bibi Dong, the Pope of Spirit Hall."

"Thank you for opening the Star Official Challenge for Nana twice."

Lin Feng looked up at the breathtaking woman before him.

His gaze fell on a certain place that wasn't suitable for children.

His breathing quickened slightly. Forcing himself to calm down, he said with a faint smile:

"It's my duty to open the Star Official Challenge for those who obtain the Lucky Star Feather."

With a wave of his hand, a cushion appeared before him.

Bibi Dong was flattered and said, "Thank you, Senior!"

Then she sat down in front of the Silver-Haired Man.

A safe distance of two meters separated them.

But from this eye-level angle, Lin Feng, that L**—

could feast his eyes to his heart's content.

Inside, he was over the moon, but on the outside he remained as calm as an old dog.

He spoke slowly:

"May I ask what the Pope has come to see me about?"

Chapter 15: Make Me the Vice Pope of Spirit Hall? Senior Nana Has a Favorable Impression of You, and This Time There's No Tang San

Bibi Dong sat cross-legged on the cushion.

Sitting upright, she gazed at the Silver-Haired Man before her.

A look of surprise crossed her face.

Only when she got closer did she realize that this fellow was actually quite handsome.

The only way to describe him was as a peerless, graceful young gentleman.

With looks like his, even an ordinary person without Soul Power could easily make a living off their face.

The next second, Bibi Dong came back to her senses.

She gave an awkward little cough, her expression turning unnatural.

Taking a deep breath, she put on a gentle smile.

Looking straight into his eyes, she said warmly:

"Senior, as a Star Official, you open the Star Official Challenge every day for the fortunate."

"That must be terribly exhausting."

Lin Feng noticed that fleeting moment when the woman had been captivated just now.

He secretly felt rather pleased with himself.

You little thing, how could you not be smitten?

His expression turned stern as he said with authority:

"Pope, if you have something to say, speak plainly."

"There's no need to beat around the bush."

Bibi Dong grew even more awkward and said:

"Since you've put it that way, I'll get straight to the point."

"My Spirit Hall is the largest Soul Master organization on the continent."

"It has a reserve of Soul Masters that makes up more than half the continent's total."

"Whether in foundation or strength,"

"we surpass the other sects and are more than a match for the Two Great Empires."

"Today, I, Bibi Dong, humbly invite you to join Spirit Hall."

"And become the... Vice Pope of Spirit Hall!"

"Would you be willing to accept this offer?"

Pope Bibi Dong's words left Hu Liena, Gui Mei, Ghost Leopard Douluo, and the others beneath the platform utterly stunned.

Since Spirit Hall was founded, it had only ever had one position of Pope.

No one had expected Bibi Dong to offer the position of Vice Pope to win him over.

But then again, if the mere position of Vice Pope could secure the allegiance of such a mysterious expert—

and have him open the Star Official Challenge for Spirit Hall members in the future—

then Spirit Hall would be the one making a killing.

Lin Feng remained expressionless, though he was a little speechless.

What the hell was a Vice Pope?

He should have offered him the position of Pope.

How could he not understand what Bibi Dong was scheming?

But the Lucky Star Feathers he handed out each day were random. He had no control over them.

Lin Feng shook his head and said:

"Thank you for the kind offer, Pope."

"I'm used to enjoying the quiet on my own."

"I don't want to join any faction."

"If there's nothing else, please return."

"Your three minutes are almost up."

The smile vanished from Bibi Dong's face.

She hadn't expected the fellow to show her no courtesy at all.

Suppressing her anger, she stood up.

"Farewell," she said coldly.

After those two simple words, she took her Gem Scepter and walked off the platform.

She returned to Pope Palace with her disciple, Hu Liena.

A group of Titled Douluo elders stayed behind to keep watch.

If Tang San dared to come and take on the Star Official Challenge, they could capture him at once.

Beneath the platform, the commoners and Soul Masters who had stayed behind whispered about Pope Bibi Dong being rejected.

Seeing that no one else was coming to take on the Star Official Challenge, they gradually dispersed.

On the platform, Lin Feng sat meditating with his eyes closed.

Peering through a narrow slit between his eyelids, he watched Bibi Dong and Hu Liena in the distance.

He thought:

Is Bibi Dong going through menopause? Her mood changes faster than the weather.

That woman's much too domineering. No good.

Hu Liena's better—gentle as a little kitten.

Hu Liena's youthful figure appeared in Lin Feng's mind.

He immediately crossed Bibi Dong off his list.

In the face of cuteness, sexiness was worthless.

"I wonder whether Tang San will have the nerve to take on the Star Official Challenge today."

"Tang San, the child of fortune on Douluo Continent."

"I'm quite curious what kind of person he really is."

Lin Feng had read the original novel and watched the anime of Douluo Continent.

He hadn't thought much of Tang San.

Especially that famous joke the netizens liked to tease him with:

"According to the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record, you have earned a death sentence."

Anyone who could say something like that was beyond saving...

Meanwhile, at the Worship Hall.

Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan arrived.

At the head of the hall sat the imposing Grand Elder, Qian Daoliu.

Looking down at Yue Guan, he said gravely:

"Go back and tell Bibi Dong."

"I know about the Star Official Challenge."

"If Tang San and Tang Hao dare to show up in Spirit City,"

"the Worship Hall definitely won't stand idly by!"

Yue Guan answered respectfully, "As you command, Grand Elder!"

Then he turned and left the Worship Hall.

He returned to Pope Palace to report back.

At that moment, Qian Daoliu addressed the people around him:

"Come out, Golden Crocodile!"

The next moment, an elderly man with white hair and beard appeared.

His aura was incredibly powerful, and he held a bamboo cane in his hand.

Before Yue Guan had arrived,

Golden Crocodile Douluo had already reported the Star Official Challenge to Qian Daoliu.

Qian Daoliu looked at Golden Crocodile and instructed him:

"Golden Crocodile, the Star Official Challenge is a matter of great importance."
