Douluo: Martial Soul White Tiger, I Am the White Emperor of Heaven!

In the Pope's Hall, Spirit City.

At this moment, Bibi Dong's skin was fair with a delicate blush, her crimson lips glistened enticingly, and her eyes shimmered with a misty allure, exuding an irresistible charm.

This was…

Looking at Bibi Dong's state, a strange glint flashed in Dai Chengfeng's eyes, leaving him inexplicably parched.

But soon, Dai Chengfeng suppressed the flutter in his heart and shook his head slightly.

"Teacher, it's my honor to serve you. I don't need anything."

In truth, Dai Chengfeng did have desires—such as a hundred-thousand-year spirit ring or spirit bone suited for his spirit.

But he also knew that even Bibi Dong herself craved such rare resources. How could she possibly bestow them upon him?

As for non-hundred-thousand-year spirit bones, Dai Chengfeng wasn't interested.

After all, not every spirit bone was like his Mind Condensing Wisdom Skull Bone, which had a clear path to evolve into a hundred-thousand-year spirit bone.

Using inferior spirit bones would not only fail to provide significant benefits but also make future replacements troublesome.

If that were the case, it was better to leave those slots empty for now.

As for other rewards, Dai Chengfeng couldn't think of anything he truly needed at the moment.

If that were the case, it was better to let Bibi Dong decide. Perhaps there would be an unexpected surprise.

Indeed.

Upon hearing Dai Chengfeng's response, Bibi Dong nodded slightly, a flicker of approval in her eyes.

Good. Dai Chengfeng's loyalty to me is no less than Hu Liena's.

But precisely because of this, I can't let him leave empty-handed.

With this thought, Bibi Dong spoke gently to Dai Chengfeng: "Chengfeng, you may not want anything, but as your teacher, I cannot withhold a reward."

"Let me think about what I should give you. After all, ordinary things are beneath you."

Hearing this, a flicker of anticipation gleamed in Dai Chengfeng's eyes. "I'll leave everything to your arrangement, Teacher."

Bibi Dong fell silent, resting her chin on her hand as her gaze swept over Dai Chengfeng, contemplating what reward to bestow upon him.

A spirit bone?

But soon, Bibi Dong shook her head. Dai Chengfeng's talent was extraordinary. Ordinary spirit bones would be useless to him, akin to chicken ribs.

Not only would they fail to enhance his strength significantly, but they might even hinder his potential.

The spirit bone from her bet with Qian Daoliu was quite good.

However, Qian Daoliu had mysteriously left and hadn't returned. Bibi Dong couldn't retrieve that spirit bone yet to give it to Dai Chengfeng as a reward.

So, what should she give him?

After a moment of thought, Bibi Dong finally came to a decision and slowly said to Dai Chengfeng:

"Chengfeng, I've decided to allow you access to the library. You may choose any self-created soul skill within it."

"How's that?"

Instantly, joy welled up in Dai Chengfeng's heart. "Thank you, Teacher. This reward is incredibly precious to me."

Dai Chengfeng hadn't expected Bibi Dong to offer such a valuable reward.

After all, this was the Spirit Hall's library—a place countless spirit masters dreamed of entering. Any self-created soul skill stored there was likely created by at least a Title Douluo.

Even if he couldn't find a technique perfectly suited for his cultivation, he could still learn from others' methods.

After all, one could use the stones of other mountains to polish their own jade.

Seeing this, Bibi Dong shook her head and smiled warmly.

"This is all you deserve. I hope you gain something valuable from the library."

"But before that…"

Bibi Dong suddenly looked at Dai Chengfeng curiously and spoke again.

"Chengfeng, do you know who the person was who intervened to stop you?"

Summoning Dai Chengfeng to the Pope's Hall and rewarding him was only part of Bibi Dong's purpose.

Who was that mysterious figure wearing a bamboo hat? Why had they arranged a rematch between Shrek Academy and Dai Chengfeng…

This was another thing she was curious about.

Upon hearing this, Dai Chengfeng's heart tightened. He naturally knew that the person was Tang Hao, Bibi Dong's mortal enemy.

But he didn't plan to reveal the truth to Bibi Dong just yet.

Dai Chengfeng understood that the right time to disclose the truth would be when Bibi Dong completed her Rakshasa God trials or had a foolproof way to eliminate Tang Hao.

After all, Tang Hao was currently in the open and relatively easy to deal with.

If he revealed the truth to Bibi Dong now and failed to kill Tang Hao, it might only alert him, forcing him back into hiding.

That would truly be a major headache!

Thus, Dai Chengfeng shook his head. "Teacher, I don't know who that person is either."

"But my mother does."

"After you summoned me yesterday, she specifically asked about the purpose of your visit. Once she learned the truth, she gave me some advice."

"Even the words I spoke earlier were ones she instructed me to repeat."

"Therefore, perhaps you should ask my mother?"

Upon hearing Dai Chengfeng's explanation, Bibi Dong nodded slightly in understanding.

It was natural for Zhu Hongxiu, as a mother, to be curious about her late-night summons of Dai Chengfeng. Learning the truth and advising Dai Chengfeng was within reason.

Moreover, as the empress of the Star Luo Empire, she possessed intelligence channels unavailable to the Spirit Hall, which was understandable.

"Is that so?"

Bibi Dong shook her head. She could question Dai Chengfeng, but it wouldn't be appropriate to directly inquire about this matter from Zhu Hongxiu.

After all, Zhu Hongxiu's status was undeniable unless Bibi Dong wanted to declare war on the Star Luo Empire outright.

"Very well. That mysterious person is probably a guest elder of Shrek Academy…"

After a brief silence, Bibi Dong stopped dwelling on the matter and slowly rose to her feet, walking over to Dai Chengfeng. "Since you don't know who he is, we'll leave this matter for now."

"But since you've agreed to a rematch in three months…"

"At that time, don't disappoint me…"

As she spoke, Bibi Dong's slender nails gently lifted Dai Chengfeng's chin, forcing him to meet her gaze.

"Do you understand?!"

Feeling the coolness of Bibi Dong's fingertips, Dai Chengfeng nodded. "Don't worry, Teacher. I'm confident."

Internally, he sighed in relief: Thankfully, Bibi Dong didn't dwell too much on this matter. It had been successfully glossed over.

"That's good."

Bibi Dong smiled and released Dai Chengfeng. "Come with me, then."

Her golden-purple dress swept across the ground, trailing faint silver sparks. Dai Chengfeng followed behind her, his eyes filled with anticipation.

They first passed through three archways adorned with six-winged angel carvings. By then, the air was already permeated with the scent of ancient parchment and spiritual incense.

They turned through the "Nine Turns and Eighteen Corridors," and after half a quarter-hour, they finally stopped before a massive door carved with a six-winged angel relief.

"The library has twelve seals isolating it from Spirit City."

Bibi Dong raised her hand, tracing the flowing runes on the door. Where her fingers passed, the stone rippled like water. "Each seal can only be undone by me or the Grand Elder."

"Activate!"

As her voice faded, the sound of clanking chains echoed in the void.

When the noise subsided, Bibi Dong slowly pushed open the massive door. "The first floor holds basic knowledge, the second contains manuscripts from Title Douluos…"

"The self-created soul skills are on the sixth floor."

"But remember—if you see an iron door leading to the seventh floor—do not look at it, do not be curious, and do not take even a single step closer!"

"Do you understand?"
