Before Pope's Hall lay White Jade Square.
At noon, golden sunlight poured through the clouds, bathing the entire square in sacred, resplendent light.
On both sides of the square, Spirit Hall's Soul Masters stood in orderly ranks. From the most ordinary Spirit Hall members to red-robed bishops, platinum bishops, and the elders of the Elder Hall, even several worship elders from Worship Hall, aside from Qian Daoliu, had all arrived.
One had to know that even when Bibi Dong had been invested as the Holy Maiden, she had never received such an honor.
Had Qian Daoliu not chosen to remain at the Icefire Yin Yang Well to condense his Second Soul Core under the threat of those Ferocious Beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest, he would have attended as well.
Moreover, aside from Spirit Hall's members, ordinary citizens within Spirit City had also flocked to White Jade Square to witness today's Holy Son Investiture Ceremony. Since Qian Xunji had released word in advance, many had even come specifically from other places.
Besides Spirit Hall's original Soul Masters and the ordinary people who had come for the spectacle, several sects had also sent representatives to observe the ceremony and offer gifts.
The Elephant Armor Sect, Holy Dragon Sect, Wind Sword Sect, Fire Leopard Sect, and even the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect had sent people to attend. Even the Heaven Dou Imperial Family and the Star Luo Imperial Family, wary of Spirit Hall's formidable strength, had dispatched representatives.
Only Thunder Douluo Yu Luomian, whose son had just been crippled, had chosen not to send anyone. As for the Clear Sky Sect, while it had not sent anyone openly, Tang Hao and Tang Xiao had actually mingled among the crowd to join the excitement.
This really was quite the spectacle.
