(TL: wtf is this title lol)
Then Bibi Dong pulled Bai Yu along and talked all night long, until it was bright outside, and Bibi Dong was still asking questions.
"Your Holiness, Chrysanthemum Douluo has come to ask if there is anything you need. If there is, he will go to the council chamber to announce the cancellation of today's meeting."
Just then, the maid's voice came from outside. Bibi Dong was startled and turned to look at the sky outside the window, only to realize that a whole night had passed.
Then, with a slightly apologetic look, she looked at Bai Yu and said softly:
"Sorry, Little Fish, I didn't keep track of the time. Why don't you rest today and fight teacher again tomorrow?"
Bai Yu waved his hand dismissively, thinking to himself that a mere night was nothing to ordinary people, let alone a Soul Saint like himself.
"It's alright, I'm not weak. Staying up all night won't stop me from fighting. Don't worry, teacher."
Bibi Dong nodded, her face slightly flushed, inwardly cursing herself for talking nonsense without thinking!
Then she said to the maid outside:
"Go and inform Elder Chrysanthemum that the Holy Son has returned and wants to test his strength against this Pope. The battle will take place outside Spirit City in half an hour."
"Have him inform the Spirit Hall personnel that everyone who has time should go outside Spirit City to watch the battle between this Pope and the Holy Son!"
The maid outside the door seemed a little surprised, and remained silent for a moment before responding to Bibi Dong.
"Yes, Your Holiness the Pope!"
As Bibi Dong finished speaking, she slowly stood up and looked at Bai Yu with a smile on her face.
"Let's go, Little Fish, let's go outside the city and wait for them. Let's give them some time."
Bai Yu smacked his lips and got up to follow Bibi Dong.
To be honest, he knew what Bibi Dong's intention was in wanting to fight him, but he felt it was unnecessary.
"Teacher, there's really no need for this. I still have some prestige in Spirit Hall, so there's no need for such methods."
Hearing Bai Yu's words, Bibi Dong shook her head. She knew that with Bai Yu's intelligence, he would definitely understand what she wanted to do.
"It's different. Your prestige comes from your contributions, not your strength. Contributions will only earn you respect, not fear. Only when you add strength will you earn respect!"
Bai Yu shrugged, speechless, because Bibi Dong was right. However, in his opinion, deliberately showing off his strength was still a bit awkward.
After all, anyone who isn't a fool knows the purpose of this whole thing. Of course, it will definitely have an effect; might makes right, after all.
The two then traveled to the outskirts of Spirit City and found a place where the elders of the Spirit Hall often sparred and fought, where they began to wait patiently.
Time passed slowly, and the once empty surroundings gradually filled with people.
Looking at Bibi Dong and Bai Yu, who were resting with their eyes closed not far away, the crowd gathered in small groups and whispered among themselves.
"Old ghost, do you think Her Holiness the Pope is being a bit too hasty? How old is the Holy Son? Why is she personally stepping in to let him show his strength?"
"Even if the Holy Son cultivates very quickly, there's no need to grant him a title right away, is there? What if he doesn't even show his true strength and ends up being a laughing stock?"
Chrysanthemum Douluo stood beside Ghost Douluo, his expression one of surprise and uncertainty. To be honest, he was completely dumbfounded when he received the news.
The return of the Holy Son is a good thing, and his desire to demonstrate his strength is also a good thing, as it helps to reassure people. However, Bibi Dong's personal involvement has made him somewhat uneasy.
After absentmindedly informing the others, he couldn't help but wonder if the two had a falling out? Did Her Holiness the Pope want to revoke Bai Yu's status as the Holy Son?
But that shouldn't be the case. Whenever Bai Yu wrote to us before, Her Holiness the Pope was always the most excited. It doesn't seem like we have a bad relationship at all!
Ghost Douluo didn't react much to Chrysanthemum Douluo's question, responding in a rather flat tone:
"You're just worrying unnecessarily. Doesn't Her Holiness know the Holy Son's strength better than you? Since Her Holiness has decided to take action personally, it's natural that she has confidence in the Holy Son's abilities."
"Stop thinking about those things. The Holy Son's position as the Holy Son is very secure. Putting aside his relationship with Her Holiness the Pope, even if we were to abolish the position of Holy Son, the Elders would not agree."
Chrysanthemum Douluo blinked, thinking to himself that Old Ghost was right. As expected of a friend of many years, he knew what he was thinking without saying a word!
He then gasped. If this was the case, then if the Holy Son was worthy of His Majesty's personal intervention, then what level of strength must he possess?
Just as Chrysanthemum Douluo was brainstorming, Hu Liena, Xie Yue, and Yan arrived with more than twenty new generation geniuses from Spirit Hall.
"Nana, what is Bai Yu's strength right now? How could he fight against Her Holiness the Pope? The difference in strength is too great, isn't it?"
Hu Liena was very impatient with Yan's questions. This guy had been asking questions all the way here. When would he stop?
"Why are you talking so much nonsense? I already said you'll find out soon enough. You keep asking questions, and I'm getting annoyed!"
Seeing that Hu Liena was a little angry, Yan put on a fawning smile and said in a low voice:
"Okay, okay, I won't ask anymore, Nana, don't be angry."
Xie Yue, standing to the side, looked at Yan's sycophantic behavior with pity. He really wanted to tell him, "Good brother, stop bootlicking. You'll end up with nothing!"
As Hu Liena's brother, he understood his sister very well. Back when Bai Yu was still around, she was eager to rush up and give herself to him.
After all these years, not only has she not given up, but she's become even more devoted. I bet if Bai Yu just beckons, she'll happily follow him into the house!
After a while, more people gathered around; almost everyone who wasn't on a mission had come.
After all, this was the first time the Holy Son of Spirit Hall had made a public appearance, and he was even displaying his strength, so everyone was quite curious.
Previously, most people had only heard of this holy son, who was said to be exceptionally talented. Now, they were finally able to meet him in person.
"Haha, kid Bai, long time no see! We're here too! I heard you want to test your skills? How about I join you?"
Just then, a hearty laugh came from afar, followed by seven streaks of light that transformed into human figures standing in the air.
The crowd below gasped in surprise when they saw the seven people in the sky.
"My God, those are my seven honorary elders from Spirit Hall?"
"Yes, they are indeed the Elders! I didn't expect His Holiness the Holy Son to have such influence that even these seven have come!"
"Is that the Grand Elder up ahead? He hasn't shown his face for many years. I never expected that this time we would actually alarm him."
Meanwhile, Bai Yu couldn't help but laugh when he saw the little dwarf appear in the sky. He thought to himself that this guy was a good-for-nothing. No wonder he was someone he could play with back then!
Bai Yu knew without even thinking about Glowing Feather's intention in saying that, but he was certain that it was definitely not his own idea!
"Haha, Your excellency Glowing Feather, thank you for your kind words, but there's no need to trouble yourself. My teacher is enough. It's just a test of strength."
