Chapter 35: Leaving Spirit City, Bibi Dong Accompanies
After realizing what his Atlas Spear lacked, Yun Yuan's heart was no longer lost. Next, his goal was to temper his Atlas Spear to produce killing intent.
The simplest way to temper killing intent was only one: slaughter. Coincidentally, on the Douluo Continent, there was a place specifically meant for killing — the Great Soul Arena.
The Great Soul Arena, a place constructed for soul masters to fight, allowed soul masters within it to choose battles for sparring purposes or battles meant for killing.
Afterward, Yun Yuan bid farewell to Gu Feng and headed toward the Pope's Palace in Spirit City to tell his teacher, Qian Xunji, about his plans.
Participate in spirit fights, and nurture killing intent!
From the last time in the Star Dou Great Forest until now, more than a month had passed. With Qian Daoliu's help, Qian Xunji's injuries had fully healed, so his usual location was the Pope's Palace.
After a while, Yun Yuan's figure appeared within the Pope's Palace, and in front of him stood his teacher, Qian Xunji.
"Xiao Yuan, you're saying you want to leave Spirit City and go to other main cities to participate in life-and-death spirit fights?"
"Why is that?"
Inside the Pope's Palace, Qian Xunji felt a trace of confusion upon hearing his disciple's decision, unsure of Yun Yuan's intentions.
Soon, Yun Yuan gave his explanation.
"Teacher, I have entered the second realm of the spear dao, the Spear Intent Realm, for some time now. Recently, I have felt that my Atlas Spear is missing something."
"That is killing intent. With my talent, blindly cultivating behind closed doors and comprehending the spear dao, although there is no bottleneck, this missing element will hinder my progress in the future."
"What this disciple seeks is perfection in the spear dao. Therefore, life-and-death battles are necessary for me."
Yun Yuan's gaze was firm, without the slightest wavering. Being a flower raised in a greenhouse was not what he wanted.
His dream was to become a god — but not an ordinary god, rather a supreme god, one that surpassed a God King.
Therefore, Yun Yuan would not allow even the slightest flaw in his spear dao. This would absolutely become a huge obstacle to his future development.
Hearing this, Qian Xunji did not stop Yun Yuan. Instead, he made a decision in his heart: to secretly send people to protect him.
However, with Yun Yuan's strength, no one among the Soul Grandmasters could threaten him. Even those a level higher, Soul Elders, Qian Xunji believed no one could take his disciple's life.
But what he feared was that Yun Yuan might challenge opponents far above his level. After all, Yun Yuan was still a youth, and he might act on impulse.
Then, Qian Xunji looked at Yun Yuan and slowly spoke:
"I agree to your request."
"However, I hope you return safely."
Yun Yuan nodded, indicating that he would return safely. He would not joke with his own safety. This trip for spirit fighting had only one purpose: to nurture killing intent.
After leaving the Pope's Palace, Yun Yuan returned to his palace and began packing his belongings. This time, he was going to leave Spirit City because there was no Great Soul Arena within Spirit City.
The reason was simple: everyone in Spirit City was a soul master of Spirit Hall, and Spirit Hall had dedicated sparring grounds.
But the only drawback was that there were no battles with life and death as stakes.
Therefore, Yun Yuan chose to leave Spirit City and go to other main cities to participate in life-and-death spirit fights, to nurture the killing intent.
The closest main city to Spirit City with a Great Soul Arena was called Silves City.
Silves City was the capital of the Silves Kingdom, located east of Spirit Hall, adjacent to Spirit City.
At the back mountain of the Pope's Palace, just as Yun Yuan was packing, a cute figure rushed into his palace.
"Eh, Junior Brother, what are you doing?"
This cute figure was Bibi Dong. Looking at Yun Yuan's actions, her curiosity was piqued.
With curiosity, Bibi Dong came to Yun Yuan's side, her large eyes staring at him as she asked:
"Junior Brother, why are you packing? Are you leaving Spirit City?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Bibi Dong looked at Yun Yuan with anticipation. If he were leaving Spirit City, perhaps she could go with him.
Having stayed in Spirit City for nearly a year, she also wanted to see the outside world. Moreover, if she went together with Yun Yuan, it would surely be more interesting.
Seeing Bibi Dong come in, Yun Yuan didn't mind. While packing, he explained:
"Yes, I'm going to other main cities on the continent for spirit fights. I'll be leaving Spirit City for a while."
Seeing that Yun Yuan's plan was exactly as she had guessed, a glint of excitement appeared in Bibi Dong's eyes.
Immediately, she moved to Yun Yuan's side, grabbed his arm, shook it, and spoke in a coquettish tone:
"Junior Brother, can you take your Senior Sister with you? I've stayed in Spirit City for a year already, and I'm bored."
After speaking, Bibi Dong stared at Yun Yuan with her big eyes, hoping he would agree. She really wanted to go out and play.
But Yun Yuan firmly shook his head, clearly unwilling to bring along Bibi Dong as a burden.
If he brought her along, just thinking about having to fight life-and-death battles while also accompanying this lively Senior Sister in front of him gave Yun Yuan a headache.
Therefore, leaving Bibi Dong in Spirit City was the most suitable choice so that this playful Senior Sister wouldn't disturb him.
Hearing this, Bibi Dong showed a wronged expression, then continued to pester Yun Yuan, making him quite troubled.
An hour later,
Yun Yuan could no longer endure Bibi Dong's persistence. With a helpless look, he glanced at her and said irritably:
"Senior Sister, if you want to go, that's fine. As long as you can persuade the teacher. If Teacher agrees to let you leave Spirit City with me, then I don't mind taking you."
In the end, Yun Yuan chose to hand the entire problem over to Qian Xunji. When it came to this Senior Sister, he truly had no good solution.
"Alright, then I'll go find Teacher now."
Seeing Yun Yuan finally relent, Bibi Dong jumped up happily, her face full of joy as she hurried toward the Pope's Palace.
Right now, she was full of fighting spirit, wanting to persuade her teacher to let her accompany Yun Yuan out of Spirit City.
The next day, inside the Pope's Palace,
Yun Yuan and Bibi Dong stood before Qian Xunji, and beside them was an unfamiliar yet powerful soul master.
"Xiao Yuan, Dong'er, this time when you go to Silves City, this is the Guardian Douluo I have prepared for you."
"He, like your teacher, comes from the Angel Clan. His martial soul is the Six-Winged Angel, and he is the current vice commander of the Angel Legion. His strength is not much inferior to mine."
After Qian Xunji finished introducing him, Yun Yuan and Bibi Dong bowed toward this senior from the Angel Clan.
"Greetings, Senior."
Seeing how polite Yun Yuan and Bibi Dong were, the vice commander of the Angel Legion smiled slightly and began introducing himself.
"Xiao Yuan, Dong'er, I'll address you like this for now. You may call me Old Feng."
"This time, Xiao Yuan, as you go out to temper your killing intent, your safety will be my responsibility."
