2: Chapter 2: Rejecting Bibi Dong, Becoming Qian Daoliu's Apprentice

"91... 92..."

By the pond in the orphanage, Ji Xuan was doing push-ups.

For six years, after finishing his daily chores at the orphanage, he would go to study Spirit Beast knowledge and Spirit Master theory. With the advantage of his memories from his previous life, he had already committed most of this knowledge to heart.

Every day, he would also find time to come here to exercise his body.

"...100!" Ji Xuan pushed himself up from the ground and let out a long breath.

"Little one, not bad physical fitness." A voice came from behind Ji Xuan.

Ji Xuan turned around. A stunningly beautiful figure was standing not far behind him, though he hadn't noticed when she arrived.

She wore a purple-gold crown, was dressed in a Supreme Pontiff robe, and held a Supreme Pontiff scepter.

This is... Bibi Dong?

It was Ji Xuan's first time seeing Bibi Dong in person.

He knew that the Cardinal who had left in a hurry must have gone to report his situation.

With his Innate full Soul Power talent, he would certainly attract the attention of the upper echelons of Spirit Hall.

But Ji Xuan didn't expect that Bibi Dong would come personally...

"Big sister... is there something you need from me?" Ji Xuan feigned ignorance and asked curiously.

"Little one, you have quite a sweet tongue." A gentle smile appeared at the corner of Bibi Dong's mouth, and she said softly, "I am the current Supreme Pontiff, Bibi Dong. I have come to take you as my Disciple. Are you willing?"

"Greetings, Her Holiness the Pope." Ji Xuan hurriedly bowed, not answering Bibi Dong's question immediately.

Ji Xuan did not want to get involved with Bibi Dong; she was a crazy woman.

Although Bibi Dong was indeed as beautiful as a Heavenly Immortal, Ji Xuan did not have any good feelings towards her just because of her features.

She was an ingrate who chose to betray her own faction for the sake of a piece of trash, Yu Xiaogang.

She always felt that she was not wrong, that the whole World was wrong, and that she had to destroy the whole World.

Qian Xunji had been too benevolent...

If it had been Ning Fengzhi of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, Bibi Dong's fate would likely have been to be reduced to a reproductive tool, and after her value was squeezed dry, she would have been made to disappear from the World entirely...

But... his strength was currently insufficient; it was impossible for him to resist Bibi Dong.

It seemed he would have to agree to her for now and wait and see...

"What... are you unwilling?"

Seeing that Ji Xuan had kept his head lowered and had not answered for a long time, the smile on Bibi Dong's mouth had already disappeared, and her eyes narrowed slightly.

If Ji Xuan refused, she would act without hesitation.

A Genius who could not be used by her must be eliminated!

Otherwise, if those old guys in the Elder Hall found out, they would definitely make him join the Elder Hall faction.

Ji Xuan hurriedly looked up and said, "No, Her Holiness the Pope, I am of course will..."

Before he could finish his sentence, a golden light suddenly descended between Bibi Dong and Ji Xuan.

"Bibi Dong, the Elder Hall wants this child."

As the light dissipated, a middle-aged man with a handsome appearance, wearing a simple gray robe and with golden hair draped over his shoulders, appeared.

It was none other than the High Priest of Spirit Hall, one of the three Peak powerhouses on the continent, with a Seraphim Spirit, a level 99 Limit Douluo, Qian Daoliu.

Ji Xuan felt a surge of joy in his heart. Qian Daoliu had come, so not only was he safe, but he could also stay away from that crazy woman, Bibi Dong.

Qian Daoliu? Damn it, why did he come?

A hint of imperceptible hatred ignited in the depths of Bibi Dong's eyes.

Seeing Qian Daoliu, she would think of that beast Qian Xunji, and think of those dark times.

It was all Qian Xunji's fault; he ruined her beautiful love, tore her and her beloved Xiaogang apart, and ruined her whole life!

Bibi Dong said coldly, "On what grounds! I arrived first!"

"Hmph." Qian Daoliu gave a cold snort and ignored Bibi Dong.

His gaze fell on Ji Xuan, and he said gently, "Child, I am the High Priest of the Elder Hall. Are you willing to join the Elder Hall and take me as your Master?"

Light Feather Douluo had suddenly run back to the Elder Hall, saying that a Genius with Innate full Soul Power had appeared, and his Spirit was a sword-type Spirit that had never appeared before.

Qian Daoliu had come immediately.

"Ji Xuan, who exactly do you choose?"

Bibi Dong looked at Ji Xuan coldly, the threat evident.

Damn it, this crazy woman, it looks like she wants to kill him!

Ji Xuan glanced at Bibi Dong, ignored her, and bowed to Qian Daoliu.

"High Priest, I am willing to join the Elder Hall and take you as my Master."

A smile appeared on the corner of Qian Daoliu's mouth, and he patted Ji Xuan's head, "Good, good Disciple, follow your Master to the Elder Hall."

Qian Daoliu ignored Bibi Dong, took Ji Xuan, and with a flash of golden light, disappeared from the spot.

Bibi Dong's face turned gloomy instantly, and the hand holding the Supreme Pontiff scepter clenched until it turned white.

Damn it!

Qian Daoliu, you deserve to die!

Your Seraphim lineage all deserves to die!

And that little brat Ji Xuan, even more so!

He actually dared to ignore her, refuse her, and choose to join the Elder Hall.

Good! Very good!

Bibi Dong's eyes were filled with killing intent, and the air around her suddenly turned cold!

Ji Xuan would only be her enemy in the future; she must find an opportunity to get rid of him!

Otherwise, if a Genius with Innate full Soul Power grew up, the strength of the Elder Hall would inevitably increase significantly, and her future plan to destroy the Seraphim lineage would be even harder to achieve.

...

Elder Hall.

Inside the main hall, a ten-meter-tall Seraphim statue stood quietly above the hall.

Below the statue, several figures gathered. They wore white-gold robes with different golden patterns on their chests, representing their respective Spirits.

They were the other six elders besides Qian Daoliu.

Seeing Qian Daoliu return, they all crowded around.

Light Feather Douluo was the first to walk to Ji Xuan's side, circling him to look him over, "Big Brother, is this the little one?"

Qian Daoliu nodded slightly and said to the several elders, "That's right, his name is Ji Xuan, and he will be my Disciple from now on."

Ji Xuan looked at Light Feather Douluo, who was not much taller than him, and couldn't help but feel a sense of pity in his heart.

In the original story, the fates of these elders were all too tragic.

However, since he had transmigrated here, these people should be able to escape that tragic ending.

"Xiao Xuan, Master will introduce them to you one by one."

Qian Daoliu introduced the other six elders one by one.

Ji Xuan pretended not to know them and greeted them one by one.

Several elders each took out some gifts for their first meeting.

Qian Daoliu also took out a gift for taking him as a Disciple, which was a golden ring.

"This item is a storage spirit tool, with a space of ten cubic meters, enough for you to use."

"Thank you, Master."

Ji Xuan took the spirit tool ring, examined it for a moment, and put it on the index finger of his left hand.

"It is getting late today. Master will take you to your residence first, and we will go to obtain your first spirit ring tomorrow."

First spirit ring?

Ji Xuan pondered for a moment, looked up at Qian Daoliu:

"Master, Disciple accidentally read an ancient book and discovered an item that can improve a Spirit Master's physical fitness and increase the absorption limit of a spirit ring."

"What item?"

Qian Daoliu frowned slightly. As a level 99 Limit Douluo, he had never heard of anything that could increase the absorption limit of a spirit ring.

The eyes of the other elders also fell on Ji Xuan.
