Chapter 198: The Soul Fighting Tournament Ends, Plot Modification Complete and Reward Obtained

As the referee's voice rang out,

an extremely intense roar erupted instantly throughout the spectator stands.

"How many years has it been? The Spirit Hall Academy has always occupied the championship position; this is the first time it has been taken by another academy."

"This time, the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy is set to rise."

"I don't know where these people came from, to actually be able to snatch the championship; it really wasn't easy at all."

Ning Fengzhi slowly stood up.

Raising his hand, the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda appeared quietly before him, carrying a radiant, precious light. Ning Fengzhi gave a light shout, "Go."

One could see the pagoda in his hand spinning around three times, drifting out. The pagoda instantly magnified in mid-air.

In an instant, the entire area in front of the Pope Palace was filled with precious light. Ning Fengzhi's Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda drifted forward, its volume expanding rapidly. In the blink of an eye, it had transformed into a pagoda ten meters high, floating in mid-air.

A faint halo of light shot out from between Ning Fengzhi's eyebrows, injecting directly into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, and his body also flashed with the same light as the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.

This was precisely the martial soul true body of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, also known as the Nine Treasure True Body.

Sword Douluo Chen Xin also stood up at the same time, standing quietly by Ning Fengzhi's side. Although he did not release his own martial soul, he released an extremely sharp aura from his body, faintly shielding Ning Fengzhi.

From the sixth level of the pagoda, a magnificent halo of light surged out, shining directly onto the few people on the Soul Fighting Arena in a repeating cycle to perform recovery for them.

In truth, he wanted even more to perform recovery for Ye Lin, but without Ye Lin's permission, he naturally could not expose the relationship between them.

Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, sixth level, Healing Light.

Fourth level, Soul Power Amplification Light.

Under the sequential illumination of these two rays of light,

everyone's condition instantly improved significantly.

What kind of strength did Ning Fengzhi possess? As the Sect Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, in the state of using the Nine Treasure True Body, the amplification ability he produced was far from what Ning Rongrong could compare to.

Under the dual effect of the Healing Light and the Soul Power Amplification Light,

everyone's complexions also began to turn rosy.

The other members of the Shrek Seven Devils had already gathered around Ye Lin.

The rest of them still looked somewhat incredulous.

"We won?"

Dai Mubai nodded forcefully, the excited light in his Evil Eye impossible to conceal. "Yes, we won. We defeated the Spirit Hall Academy Team. We are the champions. The champions of the Continental Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournament."

Pope Bibi Dong said indifferently, "Congratulations on achieving the final victory."

Her expression calmed down.

She thought about many things.

Although the soul bones had been taken away, it could not be considered as having fallen entirely into the hands of outsiders.

After all, there was still the existence of Ye Lin, and Ye Lin was still a person of the Spirit Hall.

It was not impossible to develop them into people of the Spirit Hall later on.

They were all heaven-sent talents; if they could join the Spirit Hall,

losing three soul bones would be a profitable trade.

After a brief recovery, the seven members of the Spirit Hall Academy Team were helped away by people from the Pope Palace, leaving only Shrek Academy on the plaza.

Every one of their faces was filled with a proud expression; they were the champions, yes, they were the final champions.

The Pope and all the Title Douluos stood up. Bibi Dong announced with a calm expression,

"The Continental Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournament, this year's final champion is, Heaven Dou Imperial Academy. Congratulations to you, talented young Spirit Masters."

The Shrek Seven Devils stood in a row, and behind them were Flender and Dugu Bo.

At this moment, the gazes of the Shrek Seven Devils all fell upon the tray containing the three soul bones.

At this time, the Pope displayed the composure she ought to have, receiving the tray from the hands of the Spirit Hall personnel, her gaze sweeping over the three soul bones with a hint of lingering attachment.

The Red Bishop acting as the referee said loudly, "Please, Shrek Academy representative, come forward to receive the championship reward."

At this moment, everyone except Ye Lin took a step back in unison.

"Sister Lin, you go up and receive the award."

"If it weren't for you, we wouldn't be where we are today."

Ye Lin smiled slightly, nodded gently, and slowly stepped forward.

She walked forward step by step.

Bibi Dong's true appearance appeared a few degrees closer.

When she truly arrived in front of Bibi Dong, she realized,

the Pope before her was stunningly beautiful—noble, elegant, and serene; all sorts of beautiful words seemed applicable to this woman.

Although she was no longer young, the traces of time did not seem to have left any mark on her.

Perhaps it was because of this position, or perhaps it was the clothing on her body,

Ye Lin could not help but sigh that in this current situation, Bibi Dong was indeed a cut above the rest.

The Pope gazed at Ye Lin before her, a strange brilliance flashing in her eyes. "You are outstanding, even more outstanding than I had anticipated."

"I have never seen a Spirit Master as outstanding as you."

Ye Lin smiled indifferently.

"Many thanks for the praise, Your Majesty the Pope; it was all just a stroke of luck."

Bibi Dong then added another sentence, "Are you willing to join the Spirit Hall?"

When Bibi Dong said these words,

everyone was stunned for a moment.

If Ye Lin joined the Spirit Hall, it would be a major blow to the Tiandou Empire,

the most direct effect being a slap in the face, causing them to lose all face.

Looking into Bibi Dong's eyes,

Ye Lin suddenly started to laugh.

What was the meaning of these words?

Did she not know her own current public identity?

She had long since joined the Spirit Hall.

It was impossible for Bibi Dong not to know.

So, did this sentence now mean to ask if she could switch from Qian Renxue's camp to Bibi Dong's camp?

Ye Lin smiled indifferently and shook her head.

"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty."

"However, I already have my own arrangements."

Bibi Dong's expression changed slightly, but she quickly returned to normal and said with some regret,

"Since that is the case, I wish you greater achievements in the future. May you one day be able to step into the Douluo Hall."

As she spoke, she handed over the brocade tray in her hands.

Feeling the powerful aura on the three soul bones, Ye Lin's expression still did not change in the slightest.

What a joke, just this?

She was not without Ten-thousand-year Spirit Bones herself; she really did not think much of these few pieces.

But greedy gazes from all around shot over rapidly.

Who wouldn't feel desire upon seeing soul bones?

Especially those who didn't have a single soul bone on them.

Ye Lin walked back to her companions through a sea of greedy gazes.

And just as Ye Lin was walking back,

the system's voice, which she had been waiting for for a long time, finally rang out.

【Plot modification complete. Heaven Dou Imperial Academy has won the championship, Tang San did not receive the honor, Xiao Wu's Spirit Beast identity was not discovered, and Tang Hao will not appear in the aftermath.】

【Reward...】
