Jin Lin also cast a hopeful gaze toward Qian Daoliu.
Qian Daoliu continued, "Zhenyue, Zhenxie, Jin Lin, are the three of you willing to take this seat as your master?"
Upon hearing this, Qiangu Zhenyue, Qiangu Zhenxie, and Jin Lin exchanged glances, all of them overwhelmed with pleasant surprise. Setting aside the connection between Qian Daoliu and the Qiangu Clan, the mere fact that they could become disciples of a Limit Douluo was something the three of them had never dared to imagine in their entire lives.
Yet, at this moment, their dream was about to become reality.
The three of them bowed in unison toward Qian Daoliu and said, "This disciple is willing!"
"This disciple is willing!"
"This disciple is willing!"
Seeing this, Qian Daoliu was also filled with great joy and repeated the word "Good" three times.
"Good!"
"Good!"
"Good!"
Seeing that all of her teammates had been favored by Qian Daoliu, a Limit Douluo, it would be a lie to say that Guang Yao did not feel sad. However, as a teammate, she still said to the three of them, "Congratulations!"
It was only then that Qiangu Zhenyue noticed the dejected expression on Guang Yao's face.
Qiangu Zhenyue reproached himself with some annoyance, That's right, we have all been accepted as disciples, how could we forget about sister Guang Yao!
Subsequently, Qiangu Zhenyue plucked up his courage and said to Qian Daoliu, "Master, may I make a request of you?"
In reality, as a quasi-god powerhouse, Qian Daoliu had long since noticed the emotions of these children.
He had intentionally chosen to accept only three disciples; on one hand, he considered that he was not suited to guide Guang Yao, who was a control-type soul master, and on the other, he intended to test the character of these children. Therefore, he looked at his newly accepted disciple with a hint of amusement, silently sighing, Zhenyue is a good child, upright and kind-hearted, and he can still pay attention to his teammate's emotions even in a moment of excitement. He is a fine seedling!
Qian Daoliu put away his thoughts and put on a serious face.
Sure enough, upon seeing Qian Daoliu's stern appearance, Qiangu Zhenyue immediately became somewhat flustered.
"Master, since we have all been accepted into your tutelage, could you please accept sister Guang Yao as well!"
After speaking, Qiangu Zhenyue looked at Qian Daoliu before him with some nervousness.
The other two, Qiangu Zhenxie and Jin Lin, also realized at this moment that among the four members of their small team, Guang Yao had not been accepted by Qian Daoliu.
Thus, Qiangu Zhenxie and Jin Lin also stepped forward and said to Qian Daoliu, "Master, please accept sister Guang Yao."
Who would have thought that Qian Daoliu would intentionally say sternly, "No! This master has his own plans for accepting disciples!"
Now it was the turn of Qiangu Zhenyue, Qiangu Zhenxie, and Jin Lin to have their expressions change.
"Master, sister Guang Yao is like my own sister; I beg you to accept her as well!"
As he spoke, Qiangu Zhenyue was the first to kneel before Qian Daoliu to plead for her.
"I beg Master to accept sister Guang Yao!"
"I beg Master to accept sister Guang Yao!"
At this moment, Guang Yao also said to the three of them with immense gratitude, "Zhenyue, Zhenxie, Jin Lin, thank you all, but everyone has their own fate. Perhaps His Excellency the Angel has his own considerations; do not make things difficult for His Excellency the Angel!"
As she said this, there was both envy and sincerity on Guang Yao's face.
Seeing this, Ye Guyi also stepped forward to plead for Guang Yao, saying, "Ancestor, please accept sister Guang Yao! After all, she is already a member of our Soul Hall!"
Hearing Ye Guyi's voice helping her, Guang Yao immediately cast a grateful look toward her.
Qian Daoliu took in everyone's expressions, knowing it was time to reel them in.
Thus, Qian Daoliu changed his expression again, looking at everyone with a smile as he said, "Everyone, rise! The reason I said I had my own plans is because I am a power-attack soul master and am not skilled at guiding control-type soul masters!"
"But I never said I didn't have a good master to recommend for Guang Yao!"
At this point, Qian Daoliu clearly saw the excitement on the faces of Qiangu Zhenyue and the others.
In particular, Guang Yao's face was instantly flushed with color, her excitement evident in her expression.
"Really? Ancestor!"
Among these people, Ye Guyi had the closest relationship with Qian Daoliu, and at this moment, she went directly to Qian Daoliu's side, hugging his arm and shaking it repeatedly.
This made Kong Deming, who was standing to the side, feel a wave of jealousy.
"Hehe!"
Qian Daoliu felt a secret thrill and intentionally raised his voice to cough a few times. "Of course it is true."
Qian Daoliu nodded toward Bo Saixi.
Bo Saixi understood instantly, then stepped forward and used her soul power to say to Guang Yao, "Guang Yao, are you willing to enter my tutelage?"
To tell the truth, Bo Saixi also liked these children very much; they were not only talented but also valued relationships and righteousness.
Following this, Qian Daoliu introduced Bo Saixi to Guang Yao, saying, "She is a 99th-rank Limit Douluo who is capable of both power attacks and powerful control!"
Hearing Bo Saixi's invitation, coupled with Qian Daoliu's introduction, Guang Yao could no longer suppress her excitement.
She knelt toward Bo Saixi and said, "Disciple Guang Yao pays respects to Master!"
As she spoke, Guang Yao kowtowed to Bo Saixi three times with a rhythmic thud.
Seeing this, Bo Saixi immediately felt a pang of sympathy and used her soul power to cushion Guang Yao's forehead, while softly calling out to her, "Good child, stand up quickly. From this day forward, you are the first disciple of me, Sea God Douluo Bo Saixi!"
Seeing that Guang Yao had also been accepted as a disciple by a Limit Douluo, Qiangu Zhenyue, Qiangu Zhenxie, and Jin Lin all breathed a collective sigh of relief.
Qiangu Zhenyue couldn't help but exclaim with emotion, "That's wonderful! Zhenxie, Jin Lin, Guang Yao, from now on, the four of us can fight side by side once again."
"And me!"
Just then, Ye Guyi joined their group and spoke to Qiangu Zhenyue.
With this, the new generation of Soul Hall temporarily consisted of five members.
They were the Holy Angel Ye Guyi, Coiling Dragon Qiangu Zhenyue, Coiling Dragon Qiangu Zhenxie, Platinum Crocodile King Jin Lin, and Starlight Scepter Guang Yao.
Qian Daoliu felt quite moved by this.
Afterward, Qian Daoliu gave each of the five a copy of Soul Hall's high-level meditation technique, urging them to cultivate diligently, as it would help enhance their soul power and spiritual power.
The first day of recruitment for Soul Hall was successfully completed.
Over the next few days, Qian Daoliu, Bo Saixi, and Kong Deming spent most of their time guiding the cultivation of the new generation of Soul Hall.
By the fifth day, the training of the five-member Soul Hall squad was on the right track.
Qian Daoliu and Bo Saixi brought Kong Deming to see Xu Tianran to bid him farewell.
Facing the departure of the two, Xu Tianran did not try to persuade them to stay, merely saying, "Your Highnesses, rest assured, Tianran will certainly look after Soul Hall well!"
As he spoke, Xu Tianran's thoughts drifted to that beautiful, golden-clad figure.
After parting ways with Xu Tianran, Kong Deming accompanied Qian Daoliu and Bo Saixi for a long distance.
It was not until Qian Daoliu had left the outskirts of Ming Capital that Kong Deming finally bid a reluctant farewell to Qian Daoliu and Bo Saixi.
He stepped forward and solemnly placed a map of the continent and two exquisite soul tools into the hands of Qian Daoliu and Bo Saixi, his tone sincere: "Brother Qian, Sister Bo Saixi, these are two ninth-tier defensive soul tools. You can wear them close to your chest; they will automatically trigger a protective barrier when you are attacked. Consider them a gift from your brother."
By now, Bo Saixi was no longer the novice she had been upon arriving in Ming Capital; she understood the value of ninth-tier soul tools, especially defensive ones of this caliber.
It was no exaggeration to call them life-saving treasures.
Therefore, Bo Saixi repeatedly declined, "Brother Kong, these items are simply too precious!"
Instead, Qian Daoliu snatched the ninth-tier defensive soul tools from Kong Deming's hands.
He stuffed one into Bo Saixi's hand while turning the other over in his own, unable to put it down as he said, "Many thanks, Brother Kong! Please, attend to your own affairs!"
Then, amidst Kong Deming's speechless expression, Qian Daoliu took Bo Saixi and left Ming Capital.
Along the way, Qian Daoliu intentionally and unintentionally used his god-level spiritual power to scan for traces of Evil Soul Masters.
One of the missions for this trip across the continent was to eradicate the Evil Soul Masters.
Soon, Qian Daoliu discovered traces of Evil Soul Masters in the countryside near Ming Capital.
After informing Bo Saixi, Qian Daoliu released his Six-Winged Angel martial soul, his soul core spinning frantically as his ninth soul skill, "Breath of the Angel," stood ready.
Upon reaching the Evil Soul Master, he unleashed "Breath of the Angel" instantly, and the Evil Soul Master was thoroughly purified.
Just like that, Qian Daoliu continued to hunt down Evil Soul Masters along the way.
Throughout the journey, Bo Saixi remained by Qian Daoliu's side.
Watching the Evil Soul Masters act with such arrogance, she asked Qian Daoliu with some suspicion, "Qian Daoliu, don't you think something is wrong? These Evil Soul Masters dare to commit crimes in broad daylight, and within the territory of the Sun Moon Empire, no less!"
Hearing this, Qian Daoliu felt there was nothing amiss and replied to Bo Saixi, "Xixi, perhaps these Evil Soul Masters are just too arrogant. Remember, just a few days ago, those Evil Soul Masters even dared to openly participate in the All-Continent Soul Master Tournament!"
Bo Saixi could not refute this: "Perhaps! But I think we should be careful nonetheless!"
Qian Daoliu simply nodded and said, "Fine! I'll listen to you!"
He never noticed the changes in the terrain, and before he knew it, he had stepped into a range of rolling mountains shrouded in clouds and mist, rich with spiritual energy.
The mountains here were strangely shaped and possessed a unique aura. He did not yet know that these mountains were located deep in the West Mountain, directly to the west of Ming Capital in the Sun Moon Empire.
"Huh, such a dense aura of evil! Xixi, wait for me a moment!"
