" Zhu Zhuqing, Sister Yanyan, are you alright? Were you scared?"
Jun Yi looked at the two people beside him with concern.
Without saying a word, the two women rushed into Jun Yi's arms and hugged him tightly.
"How could anything happen to us? But you, are you hurt?" Zhu Zhuqing asked worriedly.
" Jun Yi, are you just putting on a brave face again? If you're really injured, I can have Lingling treat you."
Dugu Yan also looked at Jun Yi with concern, afraid that he was putting on a show of being perfectly fine just to save face.
Jun Yi wore a sincere smile. "I'm really fine. Tang Hao's strength is just so-so. I'm capable enough to protect you now. Things like what happened before won't happen again."
"But how did your strength suddenly increase so much? Won't it have any side effects on your body?"
Dugu Yan's heart was still hanging in suspense. Jun Yi had told her before that his strength was enough to defeat Soul Douluo and even contend with a low-level Titled Douluo. Only a few days had passed, and Jun Yi was already able to fight against Clear Sky Douluo. The difference in strength between them was not small. For Soul Master with average talent, this was nothing short of an insurmountable chasm.
Therefore, Dugu Yan was worried that Jun Yi might have cultivated some kind of Soul Skill with side effects, which would allow him to possess such powerful Soul Power in such a short time.
"Don't worry, I know my body best, Sister Yanyan, you really don't need to worry," Jun Yi replied with a smile.
Then Jun Yi turned to Qin Ming's side and took out the three Soul Bone. " Teacher Qin, these three Soul Bone are yours to do with as you see fit."
"I can't accept this. To be honest, we won the championship this time mostly because of you. As your teacher, I basically didn't play any role. I'm really ashamed," Qin Ming waved his hand in refusal, but his face remained full of smiles.
" Teacher Qin, you've been able to tolerate me not training with everyone for so long, and you've still managed to get everyone together to work hard. I've never met a teacher as open-minded as you. Please accept this as a small favor from me."
After saying that, Jun Yi handed the three Soul Bone to Qin Ming, Qin Ming face remained amiable. "Then I'll keep them for you for now. I'll return them to the academy later so they can decide who owns Soul Bone."
"Then we'll head back first. Jun Yi, you stay here with the captain and Elder Zhu Zhuqing." Osler waved to Jun Yi from the other side and said, while the others started to cheer.
"Okay, Jun Yi, we'll head back now. If you'd like, you can join our Heaven Dou Royal Academy's convoy to return to Heaven Dou City later."
After saying that, Qin Ming patted Jun Yi on the shoulder, a proud smile on his face, "I'm really happy to have guided a student like you."
Qin Ming then said to everyone, "Congratulations on winning the championship! Come on, I'll treat you all to a good meal."
"Okay!" The other students surrounded Qin Ming as they left.
Jun Yi smiled slightly, then turned to look at Zhu Zhuqing and Dugu Yan, "Would you two like to come with me to the Papal Palace? I have something to discuss with the Pope."
"Forget it, I'd better not go. Zhu Zhuqing, why don't you show me around the Martial Soul Hall? It's my first time here."
Dugu Yan refused outright and said she wanted to tour the Spirit Hall with Zhu Zhuqing.
"Okay." The two sisters held hands, waved to Jun Yi, and left.
After watching the two women leave, Jun Yi transformed into a streak of light, and the next second, his figure appeared in the Papal Palace's study.
"So fast? I thought you were going to spend more time with your two girlfriends."
At this moment, Bibi Dong had already removed her Pope crown and was lying listlessly in a chair, teasing Jun Yi.
" Sister Dong'er she had important matters to discuss, so of course I had to come here first."
Jun Yi sat down directly in the chair opposite Bibi Dong, picked up an apple, and started eating it. He was extremely pleased to see Ning Fengzhi and Sword Chen Xin's humiliated expressions today.
"Hmph, so disrespectful! Is this how you act in front of the Pope? If others find out, they'll chop your head off," Bibi Dong mocked.
"There are no outsiders here, so why are we being so polite? Sister Dong'er, what's the matter?" Jun Yi said, taking another bite of his apple.
"That's true." Bibi Dong smiled slightly, then continued, "Have you sensed a faint Divine Power emanating from Tang San?"
" Divine Power?"
Jun Yi was taken aback. With his Divine Power, he was not yet able to perceive the existence of Divine Power, but Bibi Dong was different. She was now able to use the power of the Rakshasa Godhood's position, so what she said was definitely not unfounded.
"Hmm, that Divine Power carries killing intent, desire, and Evil, similar to the Rakshasa God, but not the same in essence. It's somewhat like the aura within the Slaughter City. Tang San also went to the Slaughter City?" Bibi Dong said earnestly to Jun Yi.
" Asura Divine Power?" Jun Yi's expression changed, and then he entered his Sea of Consciousness, wanting to inquire about matters related to the two dragon kings.
"Child, that little girl is right. That boy Tang San has the aura of the Asura God on him," the Ice Dragon King said slowly.
"Really? I didn't sense anything!" The Light Dragon King looked at the Ice Dragon King in surprise.
"Your remnant soul has not yet recovered to the point where it can sense the existence of that Divine Power," the Ice Dragon King explained.
This completely baffled Jun Yi, who had no idea what was going on. "Senior Ice Dragon King, what exactly do you mean by that? I don't quite understand."
"His situation is somewhat similar to that little girl's; their souls are controlled by divine thoughts without their knowledge. The difference is that the Asura God Divine Sense are extremely well hidden, making them difficult for ordinary people to detect. If I hadn't devoured someone from another dimension, I probably wouldn't have discovered the existence of this divine thought either."
"Does Senior mean that Tang San was also secretly controlled by the Asura God Divine Sense?"
"Yes."
Jun Yi suddenly understood everything. No wonder Tang San in the original story was able to inherit his grandfather's Asura God Trial so easily and obtain the Asura God Position without lifting a finger. It turned out that he was just a puppet controlled by the Asura God?
No wonder that in the Divine Realm War before Douluo Dalu III: The Legend of the Dragon King, Tang San, as the Dual Godhood of Asura God and Sea God, had such difficulty dealing with a single Golden Dragon King. Indeed, how strong can a puppet be, no matter how powerful?
