Chapter 3253: Sensing_1
Feeling exceptionally irritated, Flame couldn't help but stretch out his arms and complain, "Their battles are really boring, who knows how long until it's our turn to compete!"
He had intended to learn something from the other teams' members, but the results were hugely disappointing!
Evil Moon replied expressionlessly, "Soon, four teams have already gone on stage and eliminated both the Thunder Academy and the Blazing Fire Academy."
"Next up, only the Elephant Armor Academy and the Heaven Dou Royal Academy remain!"
Hulena chimed in, "Brother, which academy do you think will win?"
After pondering for a while, Evil Moon gave his answer, "I personally believe that the Heaven Dou Royal Academy should come out on top."
"Although the Five Great Elemental Academies are all top-tier within the Tiandou Empire, they still fall short compared to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, which is directly managed by the royal household."
Hulena pursed her lips, "I feel that the Elephant Armor Academy has a greater chance of winning, after all... the Heaven Dou Royal Academy only recruits nobility, which leads to a significant loss of talent!"
Hearing this, Evil Moon chuckled again, "Nana, regardless of which academy wins between these two, it will pose no threat to our existence!"
Through the previous battles, he had become certain that their trio had a one hundred percent chance of winning the championship!
It was hard to imagine losing to any academy!
Taken aback, Hulena offered no rebuttal...
"Brother is right, with Xu Sheng teaching us combat experience, no matter which academy makes it to the finals, they are bound to be defeated by us!"
Not to mention, there's the insurance of the Soul Fusion Skill!
Of course, whether there will be a chance to use it, that's uncertain!
Yueguan, who heard these conversations, didn't know what to say...
He could only silently think, "What exactly has Xu Sheng taught them? They don't seem to take any of the other students seriously at all!"
Just then, a familiar female voice echoed in his mind...
"Yueguan!"
Yueguan abruptly looked up, turning towards where the voice came from...
It was none other than Bi Bidong!
Immediately, he used his spiritual power to send a message, "Your Holiness the Pope, what are your instructions?"
Since Her Holiness the Pope used spiritual power to communicate, she must not want others to know!
Seeing this, Bi Bidong didn't hesitate to ask, "Yueguan, can you sense Gui Mei's presence?"
Yueguan was stunned for a moment, clearly not understanding why she would ask such a question.
But out of absolute trust, he still replied, "This... Please wait a moment, Your Holiness, I will try to sense Lao Gui's current location now."
With that, he closed his eyes and began to search for Gui Mei's presence...
Since the two of them could perform Martial Soul Fusion, as long as the distance wasn't too far, they could sense each other's presence, even their exact location!
After a while, his eyes widened in shock, "What?? I can't... I can't sense Lao Gui's presence at all!"
This was the first time such a situation had occurred; usually, they could sense each other even across a thousand miles!
Hearing this, Bi Bidong involuntarily clenched her fists...
She asked again, "So you can't sense Gui Mei's presence either? It seems then that he has likely left the Tiandou Empire with Xu Sheng, headed to a much further place!"
Feeling utterly bewildered, Yueguan hurriedly asked, "Your Holiness, did you order Gui Mei and Xu Sheng to leave the Tiandou Empire?"
However, the answer he received was disappointing...
"No... their departure was not my wish!"
At that moment, Yueguan's expression grew solemn...
Since it wasn't the Pope himself who ordered them to leave, that would mean...
Gui Mei and Xu Sheng, betrayed the Martial Soul Hall!!
However, he quickly shook his head vehemently, "No, it's impossible, Lao Gui is utterly loyal to His Holiness the Pope; he would never commit an act of betrayal!"
"Perhaps it was Xu Sheng who took the initiative to leave Martial Soul City!"
Thus, he again suggested, "Your Holiness the Pope, do you want me to go look for them??"
Bi Bidong's beautiful eyes flashed with a purple light, "No need, Gui Mei has already been in contact with me before he left!"
"All we need to do is wait until after the friendship competition, and they will return!!"
With the current Xu Sheng, he should still be unable to escape from Gui Mei's grasp, so there is no need to worry too much!
Yueguan also calmed down, "I understand, Your Holiness the Pope!"
If that's the case, then there's nothing to worry about!
With Gui Mei's abilities, it's impossible for Xu Sheng to break free!
However, when he came back to his senses, the commoners and Soul Masters in the stands were all watching him...
Clearly, because of the emotional fluctuation, he had unintentionally released a powerful aura!
Therefore, he had no choice but to hold his mouth and cough, "Cough, cough... What are you looking at me for? Keep your eyes on the competition stage!"
With these words, the crowd had no choice but to avert their gaze...
At this time, Evil Moon suddenly asked, "Elder Ju, what just happened? Why did you suddenly release such a terrifying soul power fluctuation?"
Flame nodded in agreement, "Yeah, it really startled me just now; I thought Elder Ju was about to make a move on someone!"
Yueguan glanced at them and waved his hand, "It's nothing, I just lost control of my breath for a moment!"
If he mentioned the matter of Xu Sheng, they might not be able to give their all in the upcoming friendship matches!!
Flame scratched his head and blurted out, "Really? But why did I feel a sense of killing intent from your soul power fluctuation, Elder Ju? It didn't seem like an accident."
Yueguan suddenly narrowed his eyes, "Hmm??"
Seeing this, Evil Moon immediately covered his mouth...
"Well, Elder Ju, don't mind him, this guy's head isn't quite right!"
Is Flame that dense, not to catch on that Elder Ju didn't want to explain too much?
Continuing to ask might just irritate the other party!
However, Hulena spoke with utmost seriousness to Yueguan, "Although it may be presumptuous of me to say this, Elder Ju, please calm down, the friendship competition is underway!!"
The latter, to everyone's surprise, did not become annoyed but merely nodded softly, then turned his head away to look at something else...
Flame and Evil Moon were one thing, but Hulena is a direct disciple of His Holiness the Pope and the goddess of the Martial Soul Hall, so naturally, I must take her seriously!
Otherwise, I fear I might get reprimanded by His Holiness the Pope again!!
This scene left Hulena somewhat astonished...
"Could it be that Elder Ju is not arguing back, does it mean that he has acknowledged my title of goddess??"
When he used to treat me, he was far from being as respectful as now...
But that's fine, no matter what, I must shine in the friendship competition and bring honor to His Holiness the Pope!!
