Chapter 30: Chapter 30: Getting to know the Spirit Hall

As he followed Luo Xiu through the Spirit Hall's temple corridors, Cheng Tian observed the surroundings, often paying attention to the people there.

'There are many people of the younger generation here... Far more than there were of experts in Tang San's time.' He paid attention to that point. 'Hmm, in that timeline, many of them must have died? Or not, maybe that's the talent problem?'

While thinking about these young members of the Spirit Hall who seemed so talented, he heard Luo Xiu's voice.

"This place we are passing through now is the Spirit Temple. That is where most of our organization members' missions and services are available."

"Besides this place, the area I took you to earlier is the Supreme Pontiff Palace. I don't need to tell you the importance of this place, right?" She turned to him and asked.

"Hmm, I understand." He nodded at her.

"Well, if you follow that path..." She gave some directions to Cheng Tian. "You will reach the Douluo Palace, an important location for all of us. That's where the new Titled Douluo goes through the ascension ceremony." Her eyes sparkled when she talked about it.

It was the dream of every member of this institution to become a Titled Douluo and an elder one day.

"There are other places I don't know myself, so I can't introduce you. But, in any case, you don't need to know about them."

"And where is the dormitory?" Cheng Tian asked as he observed that the place they were passing did not seem to be a residential type.

"There are two dormitories in the Spirit Hall. The first is the one for the elders inside the Elders Hall. The second is the one for students in our academy." She looked at him once more. "I will take you to your room later."

"Oh? OK then."

As they talked, a group of four youths who appeared to be under 20 years old passed the two of them, catching Cheng Tian's eye.

When he saw the pink-haired beauty, who had a gentle expression on her face, he could not help but ask Luo Xiu. "Hey, do you know what that girl's name is?"

"Uh?" She was surprised by Cheng Tian's question, smiling at him as she realized that he had been attracted to one of the most incredible beauties of this generation of the Spirit Hall.

"You'd better forget what's on your mind. That one is already hopelessly in love." Luo Xiu said as she looked at Cheng Tian's interest. "She is the disciple of the future Supreme Pontiff, but still, she has fallen in love with someone of ordinary talent..."

"So, no matter what you do, it won't work out."

"What's her name?" He asked again, just to confirm.

"Sigh..."

"Men... Anyway, her name is Bibi Dong." Luo Xiu commented as she crossed her arms at chest height and looked unhappily at the surprised Cheng Tian.

Cheng Tian looked at Bibi Dong with shining eyes while his mouth was slightly open. 'It's truly her!'

'Hmm, she's even prettier than I thought!' While thinking about it, Bibi Dong noticed someone staring at her and looked directly at Cheng Tian.

'Who is that?' She wondered as she saw the three tomoes in the eyes of this heir of Madara.

"I will make her mine!" After she passed, he muttered as he ignored Luo Xiu's presence beside him, determined to do his best to get that woman in line before she became the heir to the Rakshasa God.

'I have my suspicions as to why she became that way...' He smiled, as although the truth about Bibi Dong was harsh, he did not think that alone was behind all the madness of that woman.

To him, a big culprit behind Bibi Dong's future actions was Yu Xiaogang, who made her make absurd choices in her life with his absence or distance from this woman.

'If I have a chance to save you from Qian Xunji, I will. Otherwise, don't worry. I will gather what is left of you and bring a smile to your face again.' He smiled before turning to Luo Xiu and indicating for her to continue.

Luo Xiu watched him strangely after those words, even more so considering his subsequent behavior. "You won't want to know anything more about her?" She asked.

"No. I already know everything I need to." He dryly said.

She insisted. "How will you make her yours without seeking more about her?"

He did not say anything to Luo Xiu, but he thought about the answer to her question. 'Now is not the right time for me to care about that. I have to grow up a bit before I think about it...'

'In any case, there is no need for prior knowledge in something like this. I just have to show her something that she will never get with others. The rest will come with time.' He smiled.

Seeing this fellow not telling her anything, Luo Xiu felt slightly irritated by his behavior. 'This brat!'

'If it weren't because the Supreme Pontiff ordered me not to mistreat him, I would teach him a lesson for not responding to seniors!'

...

After a while, Luo Xiu showed Cheng Tian the most critical points of the Spirit Hall and brought him to his room.

Unlike other rooms in the academy's dormitory, such a place would be Cheng Tian's alone. Not only that, the location of this room was far from that of other students, which would naturally give him extra privacy.

After realizing this, he was delighted with the arrangements made for him and thanked Luo Xiu for everything before settling into his room.

'Well, I didn't expect to end up in the Spirit Hall, but I'll do my best!' He laughed, wondering what his future here would be.

For all he knew, the Spirit Hall could be terrible for its enemies, but, in general, it was good for its members, especially those more talented.

They had respected status throughout the continent, received reasonable remuneration, and had unique chances regarding Spirit Bones and even beast hunting. Moreover, as long as one demonstrated talent and had merit, growing in this institution was not impossible.

The proof of this was Gui Mei, Bibi Dong, and several others who initially had not had an easy start and eventually reached high positions in this organization.

Thinking about this, Cheng Tian did not feel it was a bad idea to be part of this organization.

As for the question of dominating the continent, he had no problem with that. It would be other powers that would lose freedoms, not him, so why should he care?

Hell, he already had an ability that could make him the number one enemy of the continent, so why not dominate the continent before that happened?

Thinking about it, the Spirit Hall seemed even more perfect for him!

'I'll start by absorbing this Spirit Bone that Qian Daoliu gave me.' He promptly sat down in a lotus position before retrieving the bluish bone from his spatial storage.

Upon seeing such a thing, he smiled and closed his eyes, beginning the process of fusing with this bone that was well below the age of his rings and External Spirit Bone.

'I already have over 6,000 years in each of my rings and External Spirit Bone. So, absorbing that skull bone won't be difficult nor painful.' He briefly pondered on that.

'Hmm, on the other hand, this bone will probably improve my visual condition and decrease the chances of my eyes being sealed in the future.' A smile appeared on his lips.

'Qian Daoliu... Qian Daoliu... I don't know if you were frankly trying to help me by giving this low-age bone that can't be replaced, but I appreciate it!'

'It alone will deliver me a lot when it evolves into one of a Hundred Thousand Years Spirit Bone!' He imagined how much his mental and also visual characteristics would increase with the future evolution of this Spirit Bone.

Thus, he soon went through the fusion procedure with that bone, initially having felt a little discomfort before such a thing successfully fused to him after a few minutes.

The moment the skull Spirit Bone fused to him, Cheng Tian felt a burning in his eyes, failing to notice the various improvements in his constitution due to this.

Noticing his eyes changing, he suddenly opened them and looked at the surroundings of his room, full of curiosity to know what was going on.

But the moment he did so, flames broke out from his eyes, burning whatever was in its path.

"Flaming Eyes, huh? I prefer to call it Orange Amaterasu..." He muttered as he smiled, noticing the mutation in his eyes.
