"Today, as Pope, I issue this final decree, appointing Meng Qianqiu as the next Pope of the Spirit Hall!"
"Elders and sect leaders, please bear witness!"
The grand abdication ceremony was held in the Spirit Hall. The sect leaders and Elder Council of the Seven Great Sects, as well as a group of powerful figures from the Spirit Hall, were all in the audience, serving as witnesses.
Under the gaze of everyone, Meng Qianqiu slowly walked up to the Pope Hall and accepted the crown and scepter symbolizing the Pope of the Spirit Hall!
From that day forward, Meng Qianqiu was crowned emperor!
Below, Qian Xunji was not present; apart from him, all the other members of Qian Xunji's team had also arrived at this location.
The Pope of the Spirit Hall has changed hands—this is a major event!
From this day forward, the two great figures of the Soul Master World, the former Pope Qian Daoliu, will completely retire to the second line and become an honorific!
" Great Enshrined!"
" Second Worship!"
"... Nine offerings, ten offerings!"
Meng Qianqiu bowed in turn. The nine elders of the Spirit Hall would follow Qian Daoliu to retire to the second line and no longer concern themselves with worldly affairs.
As the Pope of the Spirit Hall, Meng Qianqiu's first task after taking office was to settle the ten Spirit Hall retainers.
"A new generation surpasses the old!"
"Young Meng, you are truly the first person to achieve this in the past six hundred years. I hope that you will live up to the expectations placed upon you by the Great Enshrined!"
"The future of the Spirit Hall rests entirely on your shoulders!"
Golden Crocodile Douluo patted Meng Qianqiu on the shoulder. As a Super Douluo, Golden Crocodile was well aware of Meng Qianqiu's achievements.
"I will always keep the Second Worship's teachings in mind!"
Meng Qianqiu immediately spoke up, as the Spirit Hall still relied on these ten elders, so he couldn't afford to make things too tense.
The ten elders are the Sea God of the Spirit Hall. Whenever the Spirit Hall encounters a major crisis, they will have to ask them for help.
"Good lad!"
"Old Meng is incredibly fortunate to have a grandson like you, and the Spirit Hall is extremely lucky to have Pope like you."
Qian Jun Douluo and Demon Subduing Douluo patted Meng Qianqiu on the shoulder. In terms of combat power, Meng Qianqiu was in no way inferior to the two of them.
During this period, Meng Qianqiu had sparred with Qian Jun Douluo and Demon Subduing Douluo quite a bit. Without using their Martial Soul Fusion Skill, Qian Jun and Jiang Mo were really no match for Meng Qianqiu.
"Nine offerings, ten offerings!"
"You flatter me, you flatter me!"
Meng Qianqiu smiled. As the saying goes, "No fight, no friendship." After a period of sparring, the three of them had become friends.
"Those who are not in a position should not meddle in its affairs. Now that I have ascended to the Pope, it is time to win over some people and suppress others."
Meng Qianqiu immediately spoke up; he was ready to make a move.
" The Spirit Hall's four current Platinum Bishop are all Soul Douluo- level powerhouses; perhaps they can be of use to me!"
After pondering for a moment, Meng Qianqiu decided to win over the current four Platinum Bishop to strengthen his own power.
" Tuoba Xuanfeng, the Platinum Bishop of the Heaven Dou Empire, is a promising talent, and he's definitely worth recruiting and nurturing!"
Meng Qianqiu and Tuoba Xuanfeng had met once.
Tuoba Xuanfeng's Martial Soul is the Storm Greatsword, and his Soul Ring Configuration is also quite good. His Soul Power has now reached level eighty.
This person is quite capable; he just needs an opportunity!
Soon, Meng Qianqiu issued an imperial decree, summoning Tuoba Xuanfeng to Spirit City, intending to personally recruit this powerful figure.
"Greetings, Your His Holiness the Pope!"
Tuoba Xuanfeng knelt on one knee and bowed deeply to Meng Qianqiu. It had only been less than a month since they last met.
Unexpectedly, within a month, their identities had undergone a dramatic change, which was truly astonishing.
"No need for formalities, rise!"
"Archbishop Tuoba, it's been a long time."
Meng Qianqiu helped Tuoba Xuanfeng up and said softly.
"Your Majesty's radiance is even more captivating than before, though we haven't seen you for over a month!"
Tuoba Xuanfeng couldn't help but sigh, "Truly, life is unpredictable."
Who could have imagined that the prospective Holy Son, just a month ago, would rise to fame and officially assume the position in such a short time?
"Archbishop Tuoba!"
Have you ever considered taking it a step further?
Meng Qianqiu pointed to the Elder Hall, then to the Pope Hall. He looked at Tuoba Xuanfeng and tentatively asked a question.
"Go further?"
"Your Majesty, please don't be joking!"
"I've only just broken through to the Soul Douluo. Even if I had the will, I'm afraid I wouldn't have the courage in the short term!"
The elders of the Spirit Hall must undergo rigorous selection processes; even honorary elders must possess the strength of Titled Douluo.
Of course, theoretical Soul Master are an exception!
However, most of the honorary elders of the Spirit Hall are Titled Douluo, and they are all renowned powerhouses.
"I've seen your file with my own eyes."
"Your Martial Soul is the Storm Greatsword, and your Soul Ring Configuration is two yellow, two purple, and four black. The age of your Eighth Soul Ring is 68,000 years!"
"To be honest, apart from the low-end Soul Ring Configuration, it's almost flawless. However, I have a way to help you improve it."
"However, there's no such thing as a free lunch!"
"I promise you, once you break through Level 90, I can get my grandfather to help you hunt for a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring."
"Of course, the Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone produced is also yours!"
"But you must pledge allegiance to me!"
"Once you break through to the Titled Douluo, you must join the Pope Hall and become an elder under my command, not the Elder Hall!"
"I wonder if you can agree to this request?"
Meng Qianqiu looked at Tuoba Xuanfeng. They were all smart people, so they decided to lay everything out in the open and make the benefits clear.
Whether he stays or leaves depends on his decision!
"Well!"
"I never imagined that I would face the risk of taking sides so soon after being promoted to Platinum Bishop. What am I supposed to do?"
Tuoba Xuanfeng lowered his head. He had only just become the Platinum Bishop, and he never expected to be caught up in this vortex.
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty!"
Tuoba Xuanfeng was extremely grateful.
"From now on Tuoba Xuanfeng will willingly serve as a lowly soldier under Your Majesty's command."
After pondering for a moment, Tuoba Xuanfeng immediately nodded in agreement. There was no other way; Meng Qianqiu had offered far too much!
Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring, Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone!
This is a treasure that countless Soul Master dream of.
Meng Qianqiu possesses three Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring, while Meng Zhongqi also has a terrifying Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring!
This demonstrates the strength and confidence of the Meng Family.
By joining the Pope Hall, one can eventually become Titled Douluo and possess Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring and Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone.
For ordinary Soul Master, this is undoubtedly a stroke of good fortune.
"Great, that's satisfying!"
"Those who understand the times are wise!"
I'm sure you won't regret this decision later.
Meng Qianqiu immediately spoke up, and then he took out a jade box from his Storage Soul Tool and handed it to Tuoba Xuanfeng.
"This is Ten Thousand Year Purple Ganoderma, a rare ninth-grade medicinal king. It takes ten thousand years to grow and become a spirit, capable of replenishing one's innate foundation."
"This medicine is extremely rare, no less so than Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring."
"Take this and you will surely become Titled Douluo within ten years. You must never reveal the matter of becoming a Ninth-Rank Medicine King!"
Meng Qianqiu gave a solemn instruction before speaking again.
Only by bringing out the Ninth-Rank Great Medicine King can one truly consider it worthwhile to spend a fortune to buy a horse's bones!
