"What a generous reward!"
Just as Bibi Dong was still processing this shock, Hu Liena's exclamation interrupted her thoughts.
Bibi Dong followed Hu Liena's gaze and looked up at the sky again.
On the golden list, the reward for third place was slowly appearing.
"The True Sovereign of the Illusionary Moon, who created his own divine position, is equal to a God-King?!"
"What?! Ranked equal to a god-king?!"
Bibi Dong lost her composure again and exclaimed in surprise.
If the sealing ability just now only instilled fear, then this reward now instills despair.
Divine position!
Moreover, it was a self-created divine position!
What's even more terrifying is that this divine position is equivalent to that of a god-king!
This is a God-King, and a self-created God-King at that, incredibly powerful. This means that Haiyue doesn't need to inherit any god's mantle; she herself is the source of the pantheon.
"There is also the talent domain, the Sea Moon Domain."
Looking at the dazzling array of rewards, Hu Liena felt a strange excitement, though fear still lingered in her heart.
"Teacher, look!"
"Empress Haiyue is so powerful, she's practically invincible."
"And you, teacher, know Haiyue, and even planned to go to the Haiyue Empire to seek assistance."
"Since we have this kind of relationship with her, wouldn't that be like adding wings to a tiger?"
Hu Liena became more and more excited as she thought about it, as if Haiyue's strength was the strength of their Spirit Hall.
Upon hearing this, a glint of light flashed in Bibi Dong's eyes.
She was also very excited.
Although she had never actually met Haiyue, in her subconscious, since she was going to seek refuge with her, Haiyue was a future ally.
The stronger Haiyue becomes, the more it demonstrates Bibi Dong's discerning eye and the more secure her future backing.
She even harbored a twisted sense of pride.
See? This is the person I've chosen. This is the kind of friend that only I, Bibi Dong, am worthy of making.
However.
Just as the master and apprentice were immersed in their dream of "borrowing the tiger's power," an untimely voice suddenly rang out.
"Bibi Dong, stop grinning like an idiot!"
Although the voice was childish, it was full of disdain.
Bibi Dong's smile froze instantly. She turned her head with some confusion and looked at Xiao Qiao not far away.
"Xiao Qiao, what's wrong?"
Bibi Dong's tone was tinged with confusion, and even a hint of grievance.
In her view, since everyone was on the same ship as the Sea Moon Empire, they were at least "one of us".
Xiao Qiao is her trusted friend and a future best friend, so why is she suddenly talking to her in this tone?
Xiao Qiao gently tapped her palm with the flower fan in her hand and rolled her eyes.
"Bibi Dong, you silly woman."
This insult was extremely direct, without any beating around the bush.
Bibi Dong was stunned.
When has she, the Pope of the Spirit Hall, ever been called a stupid woman by someone pointing fingers at her?
If it were anyone else, she would have slapped them to death long ago.
But the other party was Xiao Qiao, who was ranked fifth on the Martial Soul Ranking, so she could only suppress her displeasure.
Bibi Dong asked the question, trying to keep her tone calm.
"Xiao Qiao, have I offended you in some way?"
"What's wrong? We're best friends, you know. Look, I'm even planning to go to the Sea Moon Empire..."
"Pooh!"
Xiao Qiao rudely interrupted Bibi Dong's attempt to get closer to her.
Her cute little face was full of disdain.
"Who's your best friend?"
"Bibi Dong, you dare not be worthy!"
These words immediately made the situation extremely awkward.
Hu Liena, standing to the side, was also completely bewildered and very puzzled.
"Teacher, something seems off about Xiao Qiao."
Why did she suddenly become so aggressive?
Bibi Dong's face darkened, and she cursed inwardly: Do you really need to tell me such an obvious question?
Bibi Dong isn't brain-dead!
If she still doesn't realize something's wrong when someone points a finger at her and insults her, then she's wasted all those decades as pope.
Bibi Dong was still puzzled. Things had been fine before. Although there had been some minor frictions, it hadn't escalated to this point of complete breakdown.
How come everything changed as soon as the sky appeared?
Bibi Dong took a deep breath and patiently asked again.
"Xiao Qiao, explain yourself clearly."
"I, Bibi Dong, have asked myself whether I have done anything to wrong your Mo Family City during this period of time."
What did I do to offend you?
Xiao Qiao snorted coldly, and suddenly unfolded the flower fan in her hand, instantly causing a pinkish soul power fluctuation to ripple outwards.
"You've crossed our dean!"
I'm going to teach you a lesson!
Bibi Dong's face darkened, and her brows furrowed.
It's that Jixia Academy again!
It's that so-called dean again!
Bibi Dong felt somewhat bewildered; it was simply an undeserved disaster.
"How did I offend the dean of Jixia Academy? I don't even know him!"
Hu Liena couldn't help but interject with a question.
"Teacher, have you really offended the dean of Jixia Academy?"
"I've heard that the dean is mysterious and unpredictable, and is the true master of Mo Family City."
Bibi Dong shook her head decisively, her eyes filled with injustice.
"I don't know any dean at all."
"If I had known earlier that there was such a powerful person who could cultivate so many monsters, I would have been trying to befriend him instead of offending him."
Although Bibi Dong was arrogant, she also knew how to assess the situation.
Even if you can't be friends with someone of this level of strength, you absolutely cannot be enemies.
"Enough with the nonsense!"
Xiao Qiao completely ignored Bibi Dong's explanation.
In her view, Bibi Dong's act of abandoning her husband and children was the greatest offense.
"Take this!"
With a wave of her flower fan, Xiao Qiao unleashed a burst of pink light, and countless delicate petals appeared out of thin air, transforming into sharp streaks of light that swept towards Bibi Dong.
Bibi Dong was immediately shocked.
"Are you serious?!"
She didn't expect this little girl to act so suddenly, showing no signs of being a master.
The two sides clashed instantly.
Although Bibi Dong was still seriously injured and had consumed a lot of soul power, she was still a top expert with twin martial souls.
She gave a low shout, and the phantom of the Soul-Devouring Spider King behind her flashed away, with several dark green spider spears trying to block the flying petals.
However, those seemingly delicate petals suddenly unleashed a terrifying explosive force the moment they came into contact with the spider spear.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
A series of explosions rang out in the streets.
"How can this soul power be so condensed?"
Bibi Dong was shocked. In just one simple exchange, she had felt the unfathomable depth of her opponent's abilities.
This is a power that no ordinary Title Douluo could possess.
Before Bibi Dong could even adjust her posture, Xiao Qiao's lips curled into a wicked smile.
"rise!"
With a delicate shout from Xiao Qiao, a huge cluster of pink flowers suddenly surged from the ground beneath Bibi Dong's feet, resembling a giant hand that instantly lifted Bibi Dong into the air.
Bibi Dong was thrown into the air, her body unstable, and she immediately lost her footing.
