The prerequisite for Twin Martial Souls was that the two Martial Souls a Soul Master inherited had to be of comparable quality.
However, the White Tiger Martial Soul inherited by the Dai Family of the Star Luo Imperial Family was a cut above the Hell Spirit Cat inherited by the Zhu Family.
Thus, under normal circumstances, these two Martial Souls were almost impossible to possess as Twin Martial Souls.
But after sensing the presence of both Martial Souls within Jiang Huai, the three Titled Douluo present understood!
Positive mutations!
Both Martial Souls had surpassed their original levels of quality!
A one-in-ten-thousand opportunity had actually fallen upon this boy twice at once?
He was simply blessed by fortune!
By comparison, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, the so-called greatest Beast Martial Soul in the world, was like a blue maggot before Jiang Huai's two Martial Souls!
Their Spirit Hall had truly picked up a treasure this time!
Both the pure, adamantine invulnerability of the White Tiger and the icy presence of the Hell Spirit Cat utterly fascinated Yue Guan and Gui Mei beside him.
Ninety-nine percent pure-a rare treasure!
Both men saw in Jiang Huai the possibility of advancing further themselves!
Gui Mei: Your Holiness, please, whatever you do, don't take Jiang Huai as your disciple!
Yue Guan: Your Holiness, I really do want to improve so badly!
"Xiao Huai, may I call you that?"
"No matter how gifted a Soul Master is, they need the shaping hand of a fine teacher to amount to something."
"Like you, I possess Twin Martial Souls, a gift found in only one in ten thousand.
"I have experience in both how to cultivate two Martial Souls and how to arrange their Soul Rings."
"Would you be willing to take me as your teacher?"
Bibi Dong made her voice sound as gentle as she could,
and, as though afraid Jiang Huai would refuse to become her disciple, she even added more bargaining chips.
"Golden Crocodile Douluo, ranked second among our Spirit Hall's worshippers, possesses the Golden Crocodile King, another supreme-quality Beast Martial Soul.
"Once you become my disciple, I will obtain the corresponding body-refining method for you."
"At the same time, once you are a little older, I will proclaim you the Holy Son of our Spirit Hall!"
Yue Guan and Gui Mei exchanged a glance, as though each had heard the sound of glass shattering in the other's heart.
No!!!
The heir to their legacy they had yearned for!
But since the Pope had personally stepped in to take a disciple, the two subordinates could hardly say anything more.
Bibi Dong handled countless affairs every day. As with Hu Liena, they would be responsible for teaching him much of the time anyway, so it was not too much of a problem.
What surprised them even more, however, was that Bibi Dong would go to such lengths for this boy, Jiang Huai!
Because of that past incident involving the previous Pope, the Papal Hall and the Worship Hall had long been at odds. Among Spirit Hall's upper ranks, this was no longer a secret.
The sincerity the Pope was showing now could hardly be called insufficient.
Meanwhile, seeing that fleeting daze in Bibi Dong's eyes as she looked at him, Jiang Huai also felt thoroughly reassured!
The Pope's tender affection was truly terrifying indeed!
But if I had chosen Chao Tianxiang's caresses earlier...
Hiss-
The pleasures within were not for outsiders to know!
Having made up his mind, Jiang Huai bowed in greeting.
"Your disciple Jiang Huai pays his respects, Teacher!"
On the Douluo Continent, a person could take only one teacher in their lifetime, but there was no need to imitate Third Brother by kneeling, kowtowing, and loudly declaring, "A teacher for a day, a mother for life."
Bibi Dong nodded slightly and accepted Jiang Huai's bow, acknowledging their relationship as teacher and disciple.
She simply could not quite suppress the upward curve of her lips.
She raised her hand, and an exquisite Storage Soul Tool floated on her Soul Power into Jiang Huai's hands.
"Xiao Huai, the things inside are my welcoming gift to you. If you need anything in the future, just come to me."
"Thank you, Teacher."
Jiang Huai had just put away the Soul Tool when Hu Liena came over and reached out to ruffle his hair.
"Little junior brother, your senior sister will look after you from now on, so don't worry!"
"Then I'm sorry for the trouble in advance, Senior Sister."
Jiang Huai agreed with a smile, and being called "Senior Sister" pleased Hu Liena immensely.
She was genuinely happy.
Her teacher usually treated her very well, but that imposing dignity of the Pope always kept her from relaxing too much.
As her teacher's only disciple, she alone bore all her expectations. It would have been a lie to say she felt no pressure.
Now that she had such an adorable junior brother, with such wonderful talent, her teacher could finally direct some of her attention elsewhere, and she could relax a little.
Seeing her two disciples getting along so harmoniously, Bibi Dong felt even more satisfied.
Although she did not know why such strange thoughts had appeared in her mind, it did not matter.
Jiang Huai was still young, and there were many days ahead.
Who could say for certain what would happen in the future?
"Xiao Huai, since you possess Twin Martial Souls, do you intend to cultivate your White Tiger Martial Soul first, or your Nether Civet Martial Soul?"
"Your two Martial Souls are of comparable quality, so you can add Soul Rings to either one first."
Jiang Huai thought briefly, but did not rush to answer.
"Teacher, what do you think?"
Quite clearly, Bibi Dong was Bibi Dong, and Dongzi was Dongzi.
When this Pope of theirs was not putting her world-shaking wisdom to work, she still had plenty of authority on how to cultivate Twin Martial Souls.
"My advice is that you cultivate your White Tiger Martial Soul first."
Bibi Dong looked at Jiang Huai and patiently began to explain.
"In every generation of the Star Luo Imperial Family, outstanding possessors of the White Tiger Martial Soul seek out an outstanding possessor of the Nether Civet Martial Soul."
"The Martial Soul Fusion Skill, Hell White Tiger, can not only make you invincible among those of the same rank, but when both partners cultivate together, it can also greatly accelerate their cultivation."
"The connection between your own two Martial Souls still requires further exploration. Until then, finding a suitable partner can help your cultivation too."
At this point, Bibi Dong's tone grew a little more casual.
"If you cultivate the Hell Spirit Cat first, we would have to find a woman of the Dai Family who possesses the White Tiger Martial Soul."
"But abducting an exceptionally talented one from the Star Luo Imperial Family would not be so easy."
"By comparison, the Nether Zhu Family would be much easier to target."
Jiang Huai was dumbfounded. You're the Pope!
She spoke so casually; it seemed this papal teacher of his had probably done quite a few similar things!
Sure enough, those who held power in major factions were no pushovers.
"Since you already have a plan in mind, Teacher, I'll cultivate the White Tiger Martial Soul first."
Bibi Dong nodded as well.
"According to our intelligence, the girls in your age group in the Nether Zhu Family should be undergoing their awakenings sometime soon."
"If none of them has outstanding talent, I could personally abduct that girl named Zhu Zhuyun to help you cultivate."
