Chapter 71: Bibi Dong's Decision, the Golden Generation!

"It seems I haven't arrived too late," Ma Hongjun said.

"That's right, Principal, you arrived just in time; this guy has been subdued by me," Dugu Bo said with a smile.

When Ma Hongjun looked at the terrified Yue Guan, his Phoenix Poyang Tong saw through the man's entire body, discovering that toxins had already occupied the opponent's physique.

"Don't feel aggrieved; this is your retribution," Ma Hongjun said indifferently.

"How is Lao Gui?" Yue Guan asked, feeling distressed inside.

"The same as you," Ma Hongjun's smile was somewhat meaningful.

Yue Guan's pupils shrank, and he shook his head with a helpless sigh.

Finally, he turned and left.

Time flew by, and the defeated Yue Guan and Gui Mei dragged their injured bodies back to the Pope Palace.

The two exchanged a glance and tacitly kept their mouths shut, because they both understood exactly what had happened to the other.

Speaking of it would be extremely painful.

On the Pope's throne, Bibi Dong held the Gem Scepter, watching this scene with cold eyes, and was somewhat surprised: "Why are the two Elders in such a sorry state?"

She raised her eyebrows, feeling very puzzled.

After all, a long time had passed since the last mission was issued.

She did not understand what had happened to these two fellows.

Furthermore, in her impression, the two were Ninety-Fifth Level Peak Douluo; even if they faced that group from the Phoenix Academy, it shouldn't have come to this.

Yue Guan and Gui Mei looked at each other, then truthfully recounted what had happened.

Of course, they did not mention a single word about them being poisoned or betraying the Spirit Hall.

Just kidding, if they said that, they would be done for.

After listening to Gui Mei, Bibi Dong's reaction was very intense, and her expression was extremely gloomy: "I didn't expect Ma Hongjun to have grown to such a degree that a six-ring Soul Emperor could defeat a nine-ring Title Douluo! He is indeed a terrifying existence! Was your identity exposed?"

"No..." Gui Mei did not dare to tell the truth.

"That's good. Now that the first step of probing has failed, we can only plan for the long term," Bibi Dong's expression was dim, and after hearing Yue Guan's words, she became even more furious: "Damn it, I didn't expect that this fellow Dugu Bo had actually joined the Phoenix Academy and become so powerful!"

"Ma Hongjun and the Phoenix Academy definitely have a huge secret. If it can be unearthed, it will be of immense benefit to our Spirit Hall!"

Bibi Dong's eyes were burning with intensity.

She had been coveting the secret on Ma Hongjun for a long time.

"Your Majesty the Pope, what should we do next?" Yue Guan and Gui Mei asked.

"Hmph, you two pieces of trash, you fail more than you succeed! You have disappointed me too much!" Bibi Dong came back to her senses and snorted unhappily.

A powerful aura spread out.

Yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, black, red! Nine Spirit Rings appeared, and the aura of a Level 98 Super Douluo spread out. The moment it suppressed them, it made Yue Guan and Gui Mei feel incomparably miserable, their eyes filled with terror.

'So terrifying!'

'This aura, only the Second Consecrator possesses it!'

'Bibi Dong is actually a Level 98 Super Douluo!'

The two were horrified to the core; neither had expected the other to be so terrifying, and she had hidden it so deeply!

"Release the news that Ma Hongjun and the Phoenix Academy possess a Supreme Treasure that can cause a person's martial soul to undergo Martial Soul Mutation. I want to make the continent more chaotic and make them the eyesore of all factions!"

"Let those people consume each other first, and we only need to sit back and reap the benefits!"

Bibi Dong did not intend to take action against the Phoenix Academy directly.

After all, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and the Heaven Dou Empire were there, and she was afraid of affecting her grand plan.

Thus, she planned to disgust them.

Originally, this was just a thought, but she didn't expect that she had actually guessed correctly.

Ma Hongjun indeed possessed the power to cause martial soul mutations.

"We obey!"

Yue Guan and Gui Mei nodded. "Go down!"

"By the way, have Nana and the others come to see me!"

Bibi Dong waved her hand, too lazy to look at these two pieces of trash who failed more than they succeeded.

"Yes." Yue Guan and Gui Mei left.

The two held back their anger inside, feeling very unwilling.

They hadn't expected that after risking their lives and serving the Spirit Hall for so many years, they would be treated so heartlessly, which truly chilled their hearts.

'Perhaps joining the Phoenix Academy is a good thing; at least one can see the path to advancement.'

This thought arose in both of their hearts simultaneously.

Once this thought appeared, there was no turning back for them, and this thought could not be extinguished.

After leaving the Pope Palace, they used a Flying Crane Message to inform Ma Hongjun of this information.

Only then did they go down to rest.

"Teacher, did you call for us?"

Soon, three figures appeared in the Pope Palace, two men and one woman. The girl leading them looked as seductive as a fox, and she was the first to speak.

These three were the Golden Generation of this batch from the Spirit Hall: Hu Liena, Yan, and Xie Yue.

"Have your cultivation levels all broken through to level 50?" Bibi Dong saw through their cultivation at a glance.

"Yes, Teacher, we happen to need our fifth Spirit Ring," Hu Liena said with a smile, somewhat wanting to be praised.

"Very good."

"I will arrange for someone to take you to hunt for your fifth Spirit Ring. I called you here to tell you one thing: in this year's All-Continent Advanced Spirit Master Elite Tournament, you will encounter a very strong opponent. Their name is the Phoenix Academy, the Phoenix Team!"

"This is the information our Spirit Hall has collected; take it down and study it. We suspect that they have at least three Soul Kings, and their ages seem to be on par with yours."

Bibi Dong handed the collected information to Hu Liena and the other two.

Hu Liena and the others were also curious: "Phoenix Academy? Phoenix Team? These are academies we have never heard of; which power is supporting them?" she asked in confusion.

Afterwards, she looked at the information in her hand and revealed a look of shock.

The members of this Phoenix Team actually all possess the Phoenix Martial Soul! It is simply too incredible! Where on the continent could there be so many Phoenix Martial Souls!

Of course, there are thousands upon thousands of martial souls on the continent, and no one dares to guarantee that they definitely do not exist.

It is just somewhat inconceivable that they have all gathered together now.

After all, as long as a martial soul is related to a Phoenix, its quality is basically never low, and their future achievements are even more unimaginable!

Therefore, the Phoenix Academy drew their attention.

"A newly founded power; you need to pay more attention to their captain, Ma Hongjun. This generation is not easy," Bibi Dong said.

"No matter what they are like, we will definitely do our best and not lose face for the Spirit Hall!" the three said with solemn vows.

"Alright, you may go now. After the hunt is finished, return to that place to continue your cultivation."

"The mission shouldered by you is quite heavy."

Upon hearing this, the three left one after another: "Yes!"

Bibi Dong did not inform them about the news that Ma Hongjun was a Soul Emperor, because she worried it would discourage them.

"Next, it will depend on how people from the outside world put pressure on the Phoenix Academy."

"Do not let me down!"

Bibi Dong looked outside, cold light flickering in her eyes, and then she turned and walked toward the Rakshasa Secret Realm in the deepest part of the Pope Palace; she herself also needed to improve her strength quickly.

However, what she did not know was that the three people she trusted most by her side, Salas, Yue Guan, and Gui Mei, had already become undercover agents planted by the Phoenix Academy within the Spirit Hall.

Every action and behavior of hers from then on would be known.
