Chapter 22: Holy Maiden is surnamed Tang

In the end, Tang Hao didn't have the heart to hit Tang Jiu, who had just experienced a big battle now, and he was afraid that he wouldn't strike lightly and hurt Tang Jiu, so he finally grunted coldly with a black face.

"Hand over the money, I'll hold it for you! Your brother doesn't even have money for tuition, and he's still a work-study student, don't you feel bad spending this money?"

Tang Jiu rolled his eyes, "I'm not your own son! You're so biased!"

"Bastard!"

Tang Hao was so angry, you still have the face to say that, you're not the one who gives in to everything! Xiao San often doubted whether he was his real son.

As soon as Tang Hao grabbed Tang Jiu's neck, he brutally finished raiding Tang Jiu's belongings, then left a card with two thousand gold coins and handed it to Tang Jiu, "This will be enough for you!"

This bad old man was very bad.

Tang Jiu knew there was no hope of getting the money back, and parents keeping money often have no return!

So he carried his hammer and smashed out a few big words on the boulder on the ground again.

"Murderer, the first genius of the Clear Sky Sect!"

The corners of Tang Hao's mouth twitched and he hummed, "What do you want?"

"The Martial Spirit Hall won't come looking for me to get into trouble, and I want to continue living a leisurely academy life." Tang Jiu bared his teeth and laughed.

Tang Hao really wanted to hammer this bear of a son to death, that bastard who had planted misfortune on his own clan! If this was his own son, Tang Hao really wanted to break his legs!

"Little Jiu, you still want to stay at the academy, don't dream! Go to the Great Star Dou Forest to go on an adventure, you're not allowed to come out until you're eleven!"

"Why? I'm not going!" Tang Jiu shook his head, although he liked to go exploring in the wilderness, there were still so many girls in this world waiting to be saved by him, asking him to be an ape alone, a fool would do it!

"Who told you to make such a big deal out of it! You don't know how to hide your face and you flaunt it recklessly! If you continue to stay in the crowd, the Martial Hall will soon find out that you're different."

"There's only a thousand days to be a thief, not a thousand days to prevent one! If your identity is revealed, with your strength, you will soon be assassinated!

You must disappear for five years to quell the attention of the Martial Spirit Hall! There's no calmness and composure of Junior at all, you've brought this on yourself!"

Tang Hao said coldly.

Tang Jiu was completely out of temper, he couldn't ask Tang Hao to be his personal bodyguard, even if he was, the Martial Spirit Hall could still mobilize their manpower to wipe them out.

"Alright!" Tang Jiu eventually took Tang Hao's advice and turned his head to Flander's, "Let me make a flying, no, send me to the Great Star Dou Forest!"

Flender rolled his eyes, you've pitched me into such a state, I'll send you a hammer!

"I'm not going to die!"

"Go for a trip, 2,000 gold coins, you owe me money, I don't want it either!" Tang Jiu waved the card in his hand.

With a whoosh, the card was knocked into Flender's pocket, and he coughed lightly.

"If it wasn't for the sake of the Clear Sky Douluo, I wouldn't have agreed to you!"

Seeing Flender being so greedy for money, the corners of the master's mouth couldn't help but twitch, and he really wanted to pretend that he didn't know him.

The corners of Tang Hao's mouth also twitched, this son of his, did he just let Flender bring him down!

As he watched Flender take Tang Jiu away, Tang Hao frowned at the big words on the ground, and finally changed.

"Murderer, Tang Hei Zi, son of Tang Hao!"

Yes, Tang Hao regretted naming Tang Jiu as Jiu, originally he hoped that Tang Jiu could become a 9th Ring Titled Douluo, but now he still felt that it was better to call him Tang Hei Zi, only good to to feed!

Tang Jiu is too good at causing trouble!

.....

Half a year later.

On the outskirts of the Great Star Dou Forest, in a treehouse.

Tang Jiu slowly opened his eyes, after a year of cultivation, his Spirit power had increased from level 17 to level 20.

He found that after his body was strengthened, his Spirit power cultivation speed was faster than before, but likewise because it took more Spirit power to raise a level after his body was strengthened.

Tang Jiu estimated that without the powerful energy like the Spirit ring, it would probably take at least three or four years to cultivate to level 30 at the current speed.

"Forget it, I'd better acquire the Spirit ring first!"

In the beginning, after Tang Jiu absorbed two thousand years Spirit rings, his body quality would be able to absorb three thousand year Spirit rings, and after that battle at the Notting City Lord's Mansion and his body strengthening, he should have no problem absorbing around seven thousand year Spirit ring.

Finally, with the strengthening of the Cursed Seal of Heaven, he was fully capable of absorbing ten thousand year Spirit rings!

In the Great Satr Duo Forest, he had also searched for some Spirit beasts that were good at mental attacks and had long since filled up the energy of the Cursed Seal of Heaven.

"Obtaining one Ten Thousand Year Spirit Ring should directly raise my Spirit power to level 22, obtaining two Ten Thousand Year Spirit Rings would be level 24, so wouldn't the speed of cultivation be even faster!"

Tang Jiu jumped down from the treehouse, tugged wth the clothes made from beast skin on his body, and then walked towards the inside of the Great Star Dou Forest.

He was going to pick the right Spirit beast for him and obtain the second Spirit ring of the two martial Spirits.

The Bullet Ant martial Spirit needed no introduction, and it was still the explosive stream.

But Spirit ring martial Spirits had to be thought about, in fact, there were many to choose from, according to the direction of increase, they could be divided into strength type, Spirit power type, attack type, defence type, and full attribute, or even elemental type, or even spirit type.

Tang Jiu thought about all these directions of increase, and finally decided that the second Spirit ring should be of the Spirit power type! Both increase Spirit power.

According to the speciality of Spirit ring martial Spirit, giving oneself can increase Spirit power, set on the enemy that is extracting Spirit power.

Tang Jiu actually knew a Spirit beast that was most suitable to become his second Spirit ring, called: the Pale Blue Carved Demon Statue!

This is a Spirit beast with skin similar to stone and a blue luminescence all over its body.

This Spirit beast had a very special skill, which was Spirit power increase, and it was the favourite of support Spirit Masters.

If you killed it, you could obtain a Spirit skill that increased Spirit power by 100%.

Tang Jiu had long since searched for a 10,000 year ranked one for himself, and just inside the Great Star Dou Forest, Tang Jiu headed towards his destination like a spirit ape.

Soon he spotted the pale blue carved demon statue that was 10 metres tall and unusually underwhelming looking!

The other party also seemed to have spotted Tang Jiu, and a hint of anger flashed in its blue eyes as if to say: Have I provoked you, why does everyone want to kill me?

The moment it saw Tang Jiu, it didn't hesitate at all, scattering its legs and running away, its Spirit power rippling and undulating like a sea, allowing it to use its skills to fly away towards the distance without any fear.

Shouldn't it be standing there with me in a fight to the death, giving me an additional Spirit skill after I finish it off?

Tang Jiu couldn't help but spit out a sentence, secretly saying that this didn't follow the rules, he swayed his body towards the other side and chased after him.

The pale blue carved demon statue's escape was so loud that it caused a commotion among the surrounding Spirit beasts, and these disturbed Spirit beasts all became hostile to Tang Jiu, which made Tang Jiu's chase difficult.

While at this moment, in the sky, a flying class Spirit Master saw this scene and then descended directly to the ground.

On the ground, a child with flamboyant clothes and a handsome face, her eyes clear and cold, asked, "What have you found?"

"Holy Maiden...! Young Master, My subordinate has found a ten-thousand-year-old pale blue carved demon statue, perfect for becoming your first Spirit ring!"

The flying Spirit Masters were very respectful, not daring to be half-hearted because of the young age of the child opposite them, but this was the Pope's daughter, Qian Ren Xue!

The first-ever innate level 20 Spirit power supreme genius, with a legendary six-winged angel as her martial Spirit.

Only such a gifted talent would dare to absorb the Spirit ring of a 10,000 year Spirit beast in the first ring.

"My martial Spirit is incredibly powerful, but it also consumes Spirit power, and this pale blue carved demon statue is just right for me!"

"Go on, beat this Pale Blue Carved Demon Statue into serious injury!"

"Flying Spirit Masters scout, controlling Spirit Masters hold, strong attacking Spirit Masters attack, supporting Spirit Masters increase, and healing Spirit Masters press."

Qian Ren Xue's clear, cold voice came out with a touch of unquestionable majesty.

This time, not only was it a Spirit ring hunt, but it was also a training exercise for her by Qian Daoliu, and the ones sent out were all level 50 Spirit Kings for her to deploy.

A level 50 Spirit King was just enough to deal with the 10,000 year Spirit beasts, and sending a team of 5 was also a way to exercise Qian Ren Xue's command ability.

Of course, Qian Ren Xue was unaware that a Titled Douluo was still on the outskirts of the Star Dou Forest, always ready to come to her aid, except that he did not follow Qian Ren Xue in, in that he thought that with this complete team, there would be no problem hunting the Ten Thousand Year Spirit Beast.

And there would not be another unenlightened Spirit Master daring to make an enemy of the Holy Maiden of the Martial Spirit Hall!

The flying Spirit Master spread his wings and guided the way in the sky, while the others escorted Qian Ren Xue forward, and soon ran into Tang Jiu.

The Pale Blue Sculpted Demon Statue was pinned back and forth and was instantly enraged, thinking to himself, "Am I that hated? Everyone wants to kill me!

It couldn't afford to mess with Tang Jiu behind it, because when Tang Jiu's Spirit ring gave it a set of Spirit rings, the Pale Blue Sculpted Demon Statue felt that its body was weakened and was directly restricted to half of its cultivation, how perverted!

But the people in front of him seemed even more unaffordable, all five of them were not weak.

The Pale Blue Carved Demon Statue then sat down on the ground with an air of resignation, leaning against the big tree not wanting to move anymore, it wasn't that it was stupid, but it was smart enough to want to let the two parties do it first!

In the Great Star Dou Forest, when it encountered two High Spirit Beasts that were on par, it did this, and it often worked well, after one side had defeated the other, it ate the other side and got full, saving it for the next meal!

It was now expecting both sides to start fighting first, then it could wait for its chance to escape.

"The Martial Spirit Hall is on business, idle people stand down!"

Before Qian Ren Xue could say anything, the controlling Spirit Master in front of her took out a token with two markings on it, a sword and a hammer.

Tang Jiu frowned, the Grandmaster had once told him that there was a minimum force limit for the positions in the Hall of Martial Spirits, each of which had to be matched by force.

Sixth rank: Enforcer, level 40.

Fifth rank: Deacon in Black, level 50.

Fourth rank: White Bishop, level 60

Third rank: Arch Bishop, level 70

Second rank: Platinum Bishop, level 80

First rank: Supreme Pontiff, level 90!

The token holding the two markings is the fifth ranking Black Deacon, which means a spirit rank of at least level 50!

"What is the Hall of Martial Spirits? Never heard of it!" Tang Jiu grunted lazily as he carried his war hammer.

"How dare you!"

Several Spirit Masters were furious in unison, in the Douluo Continent, there was someone who dared to defy the majesty of the Hall of Martial Spirits, it was intolerable.

Just when a few people were about to make a move, Qian Ren Xue spoke up to stop them, "Hold on!"

She looked Tang Jiu up and down and spoke with interest, "Look, you guys, he's covered in beast skin, you can tell he's a wild boy at a glance, chances are he's been living here all his life, spending his days with Spirit beasts, so it's understandable that he doesn't know about the Martial Spirit Hall!"

"Young Master is so wise!" Several Spirit Masters' eyes immediately lit up, and apart from one of the female Spirit Masters who were more reserved, the others spoke up in compliment.

"Bullshit! I am dressed like this, anyone would have guessed!" Tang Jiu snorted.

Qian Ren Xue raised an eyebrow and spoke indifferently, "Yes, it's not uncommon to know this! So, what if I say you're a twin Martial Spirit?"

Tang Jiu's eyebrows were raised, and in his heart, he only had one sentence: holy crap, how can anyone tell?

The others hadn't believed it, but when they saw the look on Tang Jiu's face, they were instantly shocked in their hearts and turned their heads to look at Qian Ren Xue, "Young Master, how did you see that?"

Qian Ren Xue looked at Tang Jiu smugly and spoke indifferently, "He's so young, yet he can run after the Ten Thousand Year Spirit Beast, which means he's very strong and can outwit this Spirit Beast!

To outsmart the Ten Thousand Year Spirit Beast, one would have to be at least a level 50 Spirit King!

But he's too young to definitely be a Spirit King, so there's only one possibility, and that's that he's a twin Martial Spirit!"

The corners of Tang Jiu's mouth twitched while the others still asked in confusion, "Young Master, even a twin martial Spirit can't possibly defeat a ten-thousand year Spirit beast!"

Qian Ren Xue smiled confidently and said, "So, based on the ten core competencies of martial Spirits, it is deduced that his two martial Spirits must be very high-quality martial Spirits, and his Spirit power is at least level 20! The Spirit rings possessed are of exceptionally high quality!"

When Qian Ren Xue finished speaking, she proudly looked at Tang Jiu, her eyes enquiring.

A hint of dumbness flashed in Tang Jiu's eyes, this kid across the street was still quite knowledgeable, he even knew about the ten core competencies of martial Spirits.

"Young Master, awesome!" There was another burst of compliments from the other Spirit Masters, but this time it was genuine.

A glint of happiness flashed in Qian Ren Xue's eyes, she preferred to use her strength and wisdom to convince people than to use her status to pressure them.

She had a wealth of theoretical knowledge under the tutelage of the 99th level Douluo Qian Daoliu, after all, she had the entire Martial Spirit Hall's canon for her to go through, and had several Titled Douluo's to guide her.

Seeing that Tang Jiu was subdued by herself, Qian Ren Xue spoke, "I can let you have this ten thousand year spirit beast!"

"Oh?"

Tang Jiu couldn't help but be stunned, and then he said with a joyful smile, "Does he feel that I'm a supreme genius and wants to flatter me, don't worry, for the sake of you being so sensible, I'll cover you in the future!"

Tang Jiu heatedly laughed, thinking, "I'll get my Spirit ring first, and then I'll clean up this little white face of yours, this is unjustifiable!

Qian Ren Xue was even amused by Tang Jiu's words, she wanted him to cover? Him a genius, this continent, there is no one who can be a genius in front of her!

Who could start off with ten thousand years in their first ring?

Feeling that Tang Jiu was too amused, Qian Ren Xue gently shook her finger and said: ''Little brother, it's not you who covers me, it's me who covers you! Become my escort and this ten thousand year Spirit beast will be yours!"

"Hehe, It's more like you'll be my escort!" Tang Jiu bristled.

"How dare you!" The five Spirit Masters chided in unison.

Qian Ren Xue raised an eyebrow and grunted, "It seems like we have to show you the majesty of my Martial Spirit Hall!"

"Martial Spirit Hall's majesty, my ass, do you know why the Martial Spirit Hall still wanted Clear Sky Douluo? It's not actually because he killed the previous Pope!" Tang Jiu said mysteriously.

"Then what is it?" When Qian Ren Xue heard that it was about her father's secret, her entire body tensed up, her eyes staring deadly at Tang Jiu.

"That's because it's a twisted and bizarre love story that Tang Hao picked up the last Pope's wife and then eloped only to be discovered! I don't think it's possible for your Holy Maiden to have the surname Tang." Tang Jiu nonchalantly eye-dropped Tang Hao.

"You, you bastard!"

Qian Ren Xue was pale, was this the reason why her mother didn't treat her well?

"Kill him for me!"

Qian Ren Xue was furious, this bastard in front of him, how dare he denigrates his parents, the two generations of the Martial Spirit Hall's pope.
