"Spirit Hall's affairs had to be handled by Spirit Hall's own people!"

Just as Yang Feng was preparing to activate the system's Destiny Diary System,

faint Soul Power that did not originally belong to Shrek Academy began to emanate from the surroundings.

"This Soul Power aura... it feels like Spirit Hall's aura?"

"No, they're Qian Daoliu's people!"

His keen observation allowed him to discover that Qian Daoliu's spies were lurking nearby.

Because when Tang San awakened his martial soul in Holy Soul Village, the martial soul in his left hand had been the Clear Sky Hammer.

It had originally been hidden perfectly, yet Yang Feng had exposed it right at the start in the beginner village.

It was both laughable and exasperating.

Now, with so many Spirit Hall auras around Shrek Academy, it was no longer anything surprising.

Furthermore, news of his steadily improving abilities had been spreading all along. Naturally, someone had to be lurking in the shadows, secretly watching him.

But now that they were heading toward Spirit Hall, Yang Feng guessed that Qian Daoliu was probably about to make a move and hunt down Tang San.

[The system has activated the Destiny Diary System] [Currently verifying the host's information...] [Verification complete. Host confirmed: Yang Feng]

"System, help me write a diary entry to Bibi Dong of Spirit Hall."

[Beginning confirmation of Bibi Dong's location within Spirit Hall] [Confirmation complete. The host may now write the diary entry for Bibi Dong.] [Diary content: Qian Daoliu is about to hunt down Tang San. He is your key chess piece, an important piece for the future conflict against the two great empires and the three great families.] [Quickly send Tang San information that Qian Daoliu is about to hunt him down.] [Please proceed to Tang San's vicinity promptly and ensure his safety.] [Please promptly resolve the matter between Tang San and Qian Daoliu.] [The system is transmitting the diary's contents to Bibi Dong, the Pope of Spirit Hall.] [The current diary information has been transmitted.] [Bibi Dong has received the diary currently written for her by the host and is reading it...] [Host, please confirm whether the diary should be retained or destroyed after it has been read. Please confirm!]

"System, once Bibi Dong has obtained the contents of the diary, promptly delete all information related to it."

"Do not leave behind any clues, nor expose the system's whereabouts or traces."

[Understood. Currently confirming Bibi Dong's reading progress. Once Bibi Dong fully understands the diary's contents, the diary will automatically be destroyed.]

Inside Spirit Hall.

Standing in Spirit Hall's grand hall, Bibi Dong had a slender, well-proportioned figure and skin so fair it was nearly translucent. Not a single trace of time could be seen on her flawless face.

Her violet-black hair cascaded down like a waterfall, while the nine-curved purple-gold crown atop her head gleamed crystal-clear with multicolored light.

The Pope's robe accentuated her mature, nearly perfect curves.

Deep hatred lay hidden within her dark brown eyes, and her body naturally radiated the oppressive aura of a powerful superior.

A notebook suddenly appeared above Spirit Hall.

It fell directly in front of Bibi Dong.

"Ah! What is this?" Bibi Dong's gaze instantly turned alert.

Bibi Dong looked curiously at the diary that had suddenly appeared.

But beyond her surprise, she was even more curious about who had managed to place the diary beside her without her noticing.

The diary seemed to possess some sort of magic, a powerful attraction guiding her to open it.

Thus, when Bibi Dong opened the diary and read its contents, she was greatly shocked.

"What? Qian Daoliu wants to assassinate Tang San?"

"Whether it's true or not, precautions still need to be put in place."

Bibi Dong then summoned one of the top Soul Masters at her side.

"From this day onward, I have a mission for you!"

The Soul Master walked to Pope Bibi Dong's side and bowed.

"Your Holiness, what are your orders?"

Bibi Dong said,

"That student named Tang San, the one with Twin Martial Souls whom our Spirit Hall recruited before, is an important chess piece I intend to cultivate for the future."

"The mission I am assigning you is to go to his residence and ensure his safety at all times."

"And monitor his movements as well. If anything happens, report to me immediately!"

The Soul Master agreed to Bibi Dong's request and then left Spirit Hall's grand hall.

He headed for where Tang San lived.

"You're Tang San, right?"

Tang San asked with a puzzled expression,

"Who are you? I've never seen you before. Who sent you?"

The Soul Master said expressionlessly, "His Holiness the Pope sent me to inform you that someone has set their sights on you and intends to assassinate you. She also sent me to protect you!"

"Tang San, be wary of Qian Daoliu from now on. Your Clear Sky Hammer has made him deeply displeased."

Before long, Bibi Dong's Soul Master delivered the message to Tang San.

"Mm, I understand." Tang San nodded, pretending to comply.

Tang San also began thinking about his affairs in Spirit Hall.

Moreover, his decision to come to Spirit Hall instead of attending Nuoding Academy and later Shrek Academy had also come after weighing the pros and cons.

Tang San had lain low in Spirit Hall for so long, using Spirit Hall's resources to improve his strength.

But more importantly, Tang San had been investigating the truth behind his mother's death throughout his time in Spirit Hall.

During all these years in Spirit Hall, he had lived every day in fear.

He was terrified that Spirit Hall would discover that he had been investigating his biological mother's affairs.

"Fortunately, they didn't discover it." Tang San finally relaxed completely.

Just now, he had thought Spirit Hall had discovered that he was investigating the truth about his biological mother.

After Bibi Dong's reminder, Tang San began carefully analyzing Qian Daoliu.

"Still, Qian Daoliu's usual way of doing things truly warrants caution."

But why had Bibi Dong come to warn him?

"Or perhaps I'm a chess piece Bibi Dong intends to use in the future."

At that thought, Tang San clenched his right hand into a fist, his nails digging deeply into his flesh.

There was no hatred on his face, but on second thought, with his current strength, if he were not in Spirit Hall, he would not be able to investigate clues about his mother either.

Tang San knew very little about his mother. His father, Tang Hao, rarely spoke to him in daily life.

He had practically raised Tang San without any supervision.

Even when Tang San was still very young, he had to wash clothes, cook, and work at the lowly blacksmith shop forging iron to support their lives.

His father, Tang Hao, was always drunk, without the slightest appearance of a father.

It was as though Tang San was not his biological son, but a child picked up from the roadside.

"From the time I was brought from Holy Soul Village to Spirit Hall after my awakening, my Twin Martial Souls were exposed."

"Even the Clear Sky Hammer martial soul revealed during my martial soul awakening was exposed."

PS: I can't do it anymore. I woke up this morning feeling groggy, and I really can't come up with another 2,000 words. I'll update 6,000 words tomorrow to make up for it.

Sorry! That's all for today.
