"We've met once, so you could say we've met once!"
The topic of mothers made Little Nine somewhat subdued; he didn't know how to describe his so-called mother.
" Your His Holiness the Pope, please tell me everything about my mother."
Taking a deep breath, Little Nine decided to first learn about her mother's past. The His Holiness the Pope seemed to know about her mother, so perhaps she could learn more about her through him.
Although he only had that brief, distant encounter with his mother that day, his powerful, Haki perception allowed him to feel her love for him.
It's possible that there are other reasons why his mother doesn't acknowledge him.
He needs to understand the reasons behind this!
"Your mother's situation is complicated, and I don't know how to explain it to you. This is intelligence that our Spirit Hall has gathered; you can take a look."
Bibi Dong took out a prepared intelligence report and handed it to Little Nine. Then, without saying a word, she quietly waited for Little Nine to read the report.
Because Ah Yin's appearances in the world are rare, the Spirit Hall did not collect much information. Little Nine finished reading the information in no time, and his expression turned extremely cold.
He never expected that his mother had been tricked by the Clear Sky Sect. What was hateful was that his mother didn't seem to realize this yet. Otherwise, she wouldn't have stood with that vicious woman Tang Yuehua last time, and she wouldn't have left him in the Clear Sky Sect.
"My mother is Soul Beast?"
Looking up at Bibi Dong with a serious expression, Little Nine had a bad feeling.
If Soul Beast can transform into human form, combined with the Clear Sky Sect's treacherous schemes against my mother back then, does that mean that Sister Xiao Wu...
Thinking about this, Little Nine dared not think any further. If that were really the case, then Sister Xiao Wu would truly be in danger this time.
"When Soul Beast's cultivation reaches the level of 100,000 years, it will have the opportunity to transform into human form. Although it will lose all its cultivation after transforming into human form, it will gain even greater potential."
It is unknown when, but a legend began to circulate on the continent that Soul Beast could transform into human form and become gods at level 100, ascending to the Divine Realm.
However, as far as I know, the Divine Realm has a clear rule that strictly forbids Soul Beast from becoming gods, so the Soul Beast Transformation gods is destined to be a path of no return.
If you ever encounter your mother in the future, please give her a good talking-to and tell her never to ascend to the Divine Realm.
Bibi Dong's reminder was entirely well-intentioned, after all, Ah Yin was, in a way, Little Nine's mother.
Their Spirit Hall is destined to be on the same side as the Divine Realm, and they are very likely to clash in the future. If the Divine Realm captures Ah Yin to threaten Little Nine, things will get very bad.
She didn't believe this promising young man would be schemed against by the Divine Realm in the future, so it was best to prepare in advance.
"Thank you for the reminder, Your His Holiness the Pope. I've taken it to heart!"
Little Nine nodded gratefully to show she understood, but at that moment she was thinking about Xiao Wu's problem and her own father.
He knew very well that although Tang Hao had indeed treated him well, he was by no means his father; in other words, his father was someone else.
As if she had just remembered something, Little Nine flipped through the intelligence report again and saw the section about the battle of the Clear Sky Sect back then. She vaguely understood who her father was.
" Your His Holiness the Pope, this intelligence report mentions a certain person several times. This person also possesses Haki Domain and even seized my mother's Soul Ring and Soul Bone, but the details are vague. What's going on?"
Little Nine was quite curious about this person who could very well be her father, and judging from this information, it seemed that the Spirit Hall was intentionally being vague in its description of that person, as if they were wary of something.
As expected, even with Bibi Dong's composure and cultivation, her expression stiffened upon hearing this. After all, that forbidden man was simply too terrifying, an existence that completely surpassed all the forces on the continent.
Even if the Spirit Hall were many times stronger than it was back then, it would probably be nothing more than a slightly larger ant in front of her, so she couldn't help but be wary.
"That man is not someone you are qualified to know right now. All you need to know for now is that it is a taboo subject, and that he also seems to have designs on your mother, coveting something."
If you ever encounter that man again, you absolutely, positively must not lay a hand on him.
With an unprecedentedly solemn expression, Bibi Dong gave Little Nine some serious instructions before changing the subject.
"Since you possess Haki power, then stay here with me for the next couple of days and learn diligently. After this competition concludes, I will introduce you to a teacher."
Bibi Dong greatly admired Little Nine; if she weren't against accepting male disciples, she would have wanted to take him as one herself.
However, she might not accept it, but she could recommend it to her beloved!
Given her beloved husband's fondness for talent, he would naturally teach him with great care.
Moreover, this kid seems to be from the Shrek Academy, so there's no reason why her beloved wouldn't know. The reason he hasn't paid attention is probably because he doesn't want such a promising talent to fall into the hands of a powerful family or sect.
The fact that Little Nine has now submitted to their Spirit Hall is the best proof of this. Moreover, their beloved had already taken on several students when he went to the Shrek Academy for a so-called academic exchange.
Jiang Zhu was one of them, and from what she had just seen, Jiang Zhu was nothing special, far inferior to her own disciple Hu Liena.
She truly couldn't understand why her beloved had valued those younger generation members so much, until she met this Little Nine and it all Satori.
According to intelligence, this Little Nine is Jiang Zhu's god-sister, and she has a good relationship with Huang Yuan Jing Ling.
Thinking about it this way, it's clear that her beloved had deliberately orchestrated this to lure Little Nine away from the Shrek Academy and create an opportunity for her to join the Spirit Hall.
And so, Bibi Dong automatically filled in the blanks of her beloved's series of unfounded plans.
This is also the main reason why Wang Hao appreciates Bibi Dong tool. Without him having to explain much, this girl will automatically mess everything up. Where can you find such an excellent tool?
While Little Nine was here studying the domineering Haki under Bibi Dong's guidance, Jiang Zhu and the others were also busy accumulating their Soul Power to replenish the energy they had consumed in the previous battles.
Next, they will face a near-full-strength Shrek Team. Although the opponents are despicable Shameless, their strength is also extremely formidable.
They need to be fully prepared.
Time flew by, and soon it was the last day of the Continental Elite Soul Master Tournament Finals, the final battle to determine the ultimate champion.
Since only two teams remain, there is no need to draw lots.
After the referee announced the start of the match, the two teams slowly entered the arena from both sides and finally stood facing each other in the center.
The New Botanical Team is led by Little Nine, who stands at the forefront, opposite Tang San from the Shrek Team.
Although Dai Mubai is the captain of the Shrek Team, Tang San is the strongest among them.
Moreover, their opponents this time were extraordinary, and they had to go all out, so it was decided that Tang San would take the lead.
" Sister Xiao Wu, I hope you can withdraw from this battle!"
Little Nine's gaze swept over Tang San, then turned to the graceful figure behind him.
After he had basically guessed Xiao Wu's identity and the Clear Sky Sect's scheme, he was extremely anxious and really didn't want Xiao Wu to be exposed to everyone.
Although we don't know what method Sister Xiao Wu used to conceal her Soul Beast aura, such concealment methods must have their limits.
Moreover, with the Clear Sky Sect and Tang Yuehua's schemes, even if Xiao Wu's concealment method is truly foolproof, those people will definitely make Xiao Wu reveal a flaw.
Therefore, it's really dangerous for Xiao Wu to stay here any longer.
"I'm sorry, Little Nine, but I have a reason to keep fighting!"
The anxiety in Little Nine's eyes made Xiao Wu panic, but recalling her mother's great hatred and the Soul Bone that the Spirit Hall had previously displayed, she became even more determined to continue fighting.
She must win this battle and become the champion of this competition. Only by winning the championship can she take advantage of the award ceremony to get close to Bibi Dong and avenge her mother.
She now possesses the power to avenge her mother, and all she lacks is an opportunity to get close to Bibi Dong, so she will never give up on this battle.
" Tang San, I'm begging you one last time. For Sister Xiao Wu's sake, give up this competition and leave Spirit City as soon as possible."
Taking a deep breath, Little Nine knew that Tang San would definitely not give up the competition, but he still decided to ask for another chance.
Even if there's only the Sisi of hope, he doesn't want to give up.
"Enough talk, let's fight!"
Little Nine's words ignited Tang San's fury. No man would tolerate another man coveting his woman, and Tang San was no exception.
So he decided that he would teach that guy a lesson in this battle.
Tang San's decisive response ignited a surge of murderous intent within Little Nine, pushing her desire to kill Tang San to its absolute limit.
Since Tang San rejected his last chance, he had to accept the consequences of that rejection.
In this battle, he will fight with everything he has to kill Tang San.
No matter what schemes the Clear Sky Sect and that woman Tang Yuehua have, their core is definitely Tang San. As long as Tang San is killed, he doesn't believe the Clear Sky Sect's conspiracy can succeed!
Actually, this is why Little Nine doesn't understand the Spirit Hall's attitude towards powerful Soul Beast. If it were more than 20 years ago, when they encountered a 100,000-year-old Soul Beast like Xiao Wu, they would definitely have killed her on the spot.
Just like in the original trajectory of fate, the Spirit Hall's Qian Xunji relentlessly pursued Tang Hao and his wife, Ah Yin. However, with the new Body Refinement created by Wang Hao, the Spirit Hall has completely lost interest in powerful Soul Beast.
Soul Bone, which were originally considered treasures in the Soul Master World, have become as worthless as trash in the Spirit Hall. Otherwise, the Spirit Hall wouldn't have brought out a complete set of Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone for this competition.
If Little Nine were to set aside his concerns and reveal Xiao Wu's situation, Bibi Dong would certainly not make things difficult for Xiao Wu, given Xiao Nine Heavens's talent. She might even help him expose the Clear Sky Sect's scheme.
Unfortunately, Little Nine was unaware of these things and dared not take the risk, so she didn't dare mention Xiao Wu in front of Bibi Dong and planned to handle it herself.
"Sister Jiang Zhu, execute the final operation plan immediately!"
Suppressing the murderous intent in her heart, Little Nine called out to Jiang Zhu behind her.
" Little Nine, we can..."
Little Nine's words shocked Jiang Zhu and the others. They knew that although the final battle plan was extremely powerful, it was also incredibly dangerous. Even with Little Nine's solid combat foundation, she would have a very low chance of survival if she tried to carry it out.
They originally planned to use it as their final trump card, but Little Nine unexpectedly changed their battle plan and decided to unleash her ultimate move with all her might.
"No need for further explanation, my mind is made up. Let's begin!"
Raising her hand to interrupt Jiang Zhu, Little Nine had already decided to do everything in her power to kill Tang San on the spot, thereby disrupting the plans of the Clear Sky Sect and Tang Yuehua.
What is the ultimate battle plan?
Ye Ren asked with a puzzled expression, feeling quite uneasy.
He hadn't heard a single thing about that so-called ultimate battle plan. Could it be that Little Nine and the others devised it behind his back?
Does this mean I've been exposed?
Ye Ren's worries soon came true. Jiang Zhu, who had been looking gentle, suddenly swung her scepter and struck him hard, sending him flying towards Little Nine.
As if she had been prepared, Little Nine grabbed Ye Ren by the neck and pulled him up in front of her, her face now showing a ferocious and cold expression.
Seeing Little Nine's ferocious and cold expression, and that undisguised killing intent, Ye Ren's expression changed drastically. How could he not realize that he had been exposed?
