note: please recommend some songs to me! I'm tired of listening to the same music everyday!đ
any type is fine just give me some recommendations.
_________________________________________________
after we finished eating breakfast, we exited the island.
the island and the area around it, in a straight line is a property of Bibi Dong herself.
it's not near the papal palace, but it's not that far either.
so we just walked and when we got a little far from the island, we saw a guard in the uniform of the douluo palace waiting for us.
Bibi Dong's mood sank a bit but she didn't show it that much.
"your highness the pope! I have a message from the supreme elder. it is stated that he and golden crocodile douluo wish to meet the new disciple of your holiness."
he got down on one knee and said the purpose of his visit.
Bibi dong frowned and looked at me and I just shrugged and nodded.
I'm an impulsive person, alright? always have been, but now I don't have anything to worry about, since nobody can harm me.
and even if something does happen, I can just move back in time to make it not happen. yes I can do that.
even if I have never transformed into my CS form, I know what I can do, and my CS form has been getting stronger as well because of my Ultimate Doomsday Godzilla hybrid form.
"alright, he will go, but I will go with him. you are dismissed."
"as you wish your holiness." he said and walked away because of Bibi Dong's order.
"teacher, why do you think they want to see me?"
"it's probably to see your talent, and if they see your talent is good enough, maybe try and get you to join their side."
"huh then they need to buy a new bed to keep on dreaming about that! no way I'm leaving teacher!"
I said without hesitation which teacher responded with a satisfied smile and nodded.
"alright then, Nana you go to your academy and tell why Xiao Ali probably won't attend school today."
(ohh hells yeah! the douluo palace impression just grew in my mind!)
(you really hate school huh?)
(who doesn't?)
"Xiao Ali, let's go. I will take you to douluo palace."
Ali/Hu Liena: "understood teacher."
and so me and Bibi Dong set off to douluo palace.
douluo palace is the only place higher than papal palace, both in geography and power.
the pope might seem like the boss of the martial soul hall, but the real man in charge, is the supreme elder, Qian Daoliu.
the father of the previous pope, that bastard Qian Xunji.
and the grandfather of Qian Renxue.
and he is also the guardian of the angel God's test.
He is known as the 'Invincible of the Sky', and is known as one of the two mountains of the land spirit master world, symbolising an insurmountable mountain, along with Tang Chen, the patriarch of the Haotian Sect.
After the tour of the Sea God Island, a Qian Daoliu stayed in Spirit Hall as the Grand Elder of the Hall of Elders and Lord of the Hall of Douluo, responsible for the consecration of the Hall of Douluo and presiding over the ceremony of all the newly promoted title Douluo.
Now no longer involved in the affairs of the martial soul hall.
Qian Daoliu has a very calm personality and is rational.
Qian Daoliu is clear about right and wrong, he knows that his son Qian Xunji was killed by Bibi Dong, but he also knows that Qian Xunji's method of preventing Bibi Dong from leaving was too dark/shady, so he does not have much hatred for Bibidong.
The future of the Martial Spirit Hall is more important to him than his personal hatred, and Bibidong has the talent to reach another level and lead the Spirit Hall further, so he is willing to support Bibidong and support her to become the Pope of the Hall.
Qian Daoliu keeps his promises. He once fought with Tang Chen and made a promise that the Spirit Hall will never set foot on the mountain where the Clear Sky Sect is located, unless he himself could defeat Tang Chen.
Even though Tang Chen had been missing for many years, Qian Daoliu still kept his promise. Even when his son was indirectly killed by Tang Hao, Qian Daoliu did not attack the Haotianzong.
locating douluo palace wasn't hard at all, after all it is placed in a way that everybody in martial soul city can see it.
walking towards the douluo palace, every guard that saw us would kneel on one knee and said "your holiness!"
the guards opened the gates of douluo palace and let us in.
the hall was big, but I couldn't appreciate the scenery since my teacher wanted to get things done quickly.
when we finally reached our destination, we saw a handsome man waiting in front of a statue of an angel holding a sword.
so he is Qian Daoliu huh?
he has pale blonde hair that surpasses his shoulder by a small amount.
he has sword eyebrows, yellow eyes and some kind of accessory on his head that I have never seen in either of my lives.
he is wearing an armor that is mixed with a blue robe.
when we reached a few meters away from him, he the looked at us and said: "you are here."
"what do you want? I thought you weren't going to interfere with the martial soul hall matters anymore."
Bibi Dong said, making it obvious that she doesn't like this over 100 years old old man one bit.
"sigh, I am not interfering, I wanted to see the child that is born with twin martial souls and with innate 20 soul power.
you obviously know that if a person has innate 20 soul power, it means that that child is favored by a god.
I don't know which god favors him, and I am not going to try and find out, or I might anger that god.
what I want to do, is to see if we can train him to be a pillar of the martial soul hall.
and for that, I want to help and I will protect him. he will go to far greater length if he has the support of both the papal palace and the douluo palace.
I don't want him to not be your disciple anymore, I just want the martial soul hall to have someone strong in the future.
with his talent, he will definitely reach titled douluo at least, but with the backing of the entire martial soul hall, his path will be far more easier.
what do you think, child?"
he said to Bibi Dong and then asked me.
I didn't think about it for even a second, and replied without hesitation: "that's is a good thing for me, after all, the only thing I get out of this, is benefits.
but I will leave that decision to my dear teacher to decide. if she disagrees, then I will refuse your kind offer. but if she agrees, then I will be thankful for your kindness."
Bibi Dong's mood sank just a little bit in the first sentence, but she was clearly satisfied with my second sentence.
then she thought about it for a few seconds while Qian Daoliu looked at her.
we may be soul mates, but she has only known me for just more than 10 days now.
so her priority is still the martial soul hall, and I can respect that, after all she has worked really hard to make it stronger.
so me being supported by douluo palace is good for both me and the spirit hall, and I can also give information to Bibi Dong about the douluo palace.
they both must know this, and Qian Daoliu is willing to do this for the future of the martial soul hall.
but the reason why she didn't agree so fast, is because of my last sentence.
for a normal person, it may have meant nothing. but Bibi Dong has been the pope of the martial soul hall, the place that is stronger than both empires, for so many years.
so she definitely has the ability to see what someone means when they say something.
and what she saw and heard in my sentence, was my absolute trust in her.
so she is thinking about my safety now, after all, even if we have only been together, not in a relationship, for not even two weeks, we are still soul mates.
and we will definitely think of each other's well being.
"alright, I agree. but you must know that he is only MY disciple and no one else's.
so who will train him?"
"good good, I agree. and the person who will train him, is my old friend and the second strongest person in douluo palace, the golden crocodile douluo, Jin ĂšyĂș!
and don't worry, he will only be his fighting instructor.
{I just said his title in Chinese since the poor fella didn't even have a name. Jin means gold or golden. and ĂšyĂș means crocodile. though do leave me a recommendation for his name.}
"I see, he is a good choice considering that he has lived even longer than you, and has always liked fighting."
she said and after Qian Daoliu calling for him, he walks in after a few seconds.
he is a tall and sturdy old man with white hair and beard and he wears simple white robes.
there are some scars on his hands and face, and he shows them with pride. teacher did say that he likes fighting so that's probably why he doesn't cover them.
"brother Daoliu, your holiness." he said to the both of them with a nod, after all, titled douluos don't need to bow their heads to anyone.
and even the emperor has to show them some respect.
"hello child, me and brother Daoliu have discussed it before, and it seems that your teacher has approved.
but I want to check if you also have hard will along with your aptitude, so I'm going to test you by pressuring you with my spirit power.
if that is okay with your holiness?"
he told me and then asked Bibi Dong, she looked at me and I shrugged and she nodded towards him.
"alright then you ready?"
"go ahead mister." I replied with a smirk, which he also smirked at, but not the mocking type.
he applied spirit power of about level fifteen, which I did feel something, but didn't react to at all.
he raised an eyebrow and then started to raise the level of the spirit power pressure.
16, 17, 18, 19, 20... this continued till it reached my level, 26, and all of them were clearly a little surprised.
after all, just holding on without releasing the martial soul at two third of the targets own spirit power is considered a genius!
but not only have I not released my martial soul, I don't even look like I'm in discomfort.
so he raised the level again, 27,28,29,30, and when it reached the 31st level, I felt some kind of pressure on me, but not something to be uncomfortable for or show a reaction to.
I just folded my arms in front my chest and raised an eyebrow, he then raised the level again, but it was slower, in case I couldn't hold on, and get harmed.
it went on like this for about a minute till it reached 39th level, and then level 40, and a few drops of sweats began to form on my forehead.
and when it reached level 41, I could clearly feel the pressure on me, but I could still hold on.
so I said with a toothy smile: "continue, old man!"
it seems that my wild side was starting to show up.
he also smiled, but was still careful, slowly he raised the pressure and when it reached level 49, I was panting.
and they were all clearly surprised, after all, some one who can withstand two third of his own level is considered a genius, while I am here withstanding the soul power pressure of nearly twice my own level!
but when he raised the spirit power pressure to level 51 from 50, I heard a click from my body, as if something was unlocked...
