Douluo Continent: Starting with a Self-Created Soul Ring 30

Chapter 30: The Spirit Kite Douluo

“That’s right!”

“Whether it’s true or not, Lord Ailes, you just need to test it!”

“However, Lord Ailes, your Soul Power level is quite high, so my first Soul Skill might not have much effect on you. It’s best to find a Soul Master or a Great Soul Master to test it!”

Gu Ziyue nodded affirmatively, looking like he was unafraid of any challenge.

“Good, this old man will arrange it!”

Ailes replied immediately after hearing Gu Ziyue’s words.

Ailes quickly found a suitable Soul Master to verify Gu Ziyue’s first Soul Skill on the spot. Besides that Soul Master, he also had Gu Ziyue use the Soul Skill on him. Even if the effect might not be significant, he wanted to experience it firsthand.

The result was unsurprising; Gu Ziyue’s first Soul Skill did indeed possess the effect of increasing cultivation speed.

“Excellent! Excellent! Excellent!”

“Gu Ziyue, your ability is very good. I’ve decided to report your situation to Martial Soul City, and let the higher-ups decide on your arrangements!”

Ailes excitedly spoke to Gu Ziyue.

“Understood!”

Gu Ziyue naturally had no objections.

So Gu Ziyue temporarily stayed at the Martial Soul Temple branch, waiting for the final decision. Whether he would be favored by Pope Qian Xunji was uncertain, although he had great confidence.

…

Martial Soul City, the Pope’s Palace.

A man with a golden aura of authority sat on the Pope’s throne, holding the report from the branch temple in the Tiandou Empire.

“It can actually increase cultivation speed?”

“Interesting!”

“It’s indeed an ability worth cultivating, but his innate Soul Power is only level 1, which is a pity. It’s unknown whether he can break through to Soul Zun in the future!”

Qian Xunji, naturally, saw Ailes’s report. Gu Ziyue’s unique Soul Skill effect truly caught his eye. However, Gu Ziyue’s innate Soul Power of level 1 left him somewhat disappointed.

“But his ability is indeed very helpful to Dong’er. Right now is Dong’er’s golden age of growth; being able to accelerate the process is naturally better!”

Just as Gu Ziyue had predicted, after learning about Gu Ziyue’s ability, regardless of his opinion on Gu Ziyue’s level 1 innate Soul Power, the ability immediately reminded him of his disciple, Bi Bi Dong.

“Order the Platinum Bishop of the Tiandou Holy Temple to go to the branch temple and bring the person named Gu Ziyue back!”

“And investigate his past.”

Qian Xunji quickly made a decision.

…

Gu Ziyue waited at the branch temple for half a month. Until the arrival of a woman, a woman wearing the attire of a Platinum Bishop.

“Gu Ziyue, come here quickly, this is Bishop Li Chanfei, the Platinum Bishop of our Tiandou Holy Temple!”

After bringing Gu Ziyue to meet her, Ailes quickly introduced him.

“Greetings, Bishop Li Chanfei!”

Gu Ziyue greeted her while observing her.

This Platinum Bishop named Li Chanfei had a neat short hairstyle and a curvaceous figure. The Martial Soul Temple’s Platinum Bishop attire, in addition to its sanctity, also added a touch of charm. She appeared to be only in her twenties. However, Gu Ziyue knew she couldn’t be that young; she was probably over fifty.

Because the Platinum Bishops stationed in the two empires’ Holy Temples of the Martial Soul Temple were all Soul Douluo-level powerhouses, all above level 80. At this level, their age is naturally not low. As for those above level ninety, the Title Douluo, they no longer needed to manage the mundane affairs of the Martial Soul Temple and were directly promoted to elders of the Elder Hall.

“Alright, I’ll take him away.”

Li Chanfei nodded and then spoke to Ailes.

“Kid, come with me. I’m here to take you to Martial Soul City!”

Li Chanfei then spoke to Gu Ziyue, and turned to leave.

“I don’t know if the Pope has lost his mind, actually making me, a Platinum Bishop, escort a little brat!”

As she walked, she couldn’t help but mutter about Pope Qian Xunji.

“Gu Ziyue, quickly follow Bishop Li Chanfei!”

Ailes heard her words, his mouth twitched slightly, pretending not to hear, and quickly spoke to Gu Ziyue.

“Yes, goodbye, Grandpa Ailes!”

Gu Ziyue nodded, bid farewell to Ailes, and quickly caught up with Li Chanfei.

“Let’s go, we won’t take a carriage, it wastes time!”

Upon reaching the door, Li Chanfei raised her hand, her Soul Rings shining brightly, and then a fiery spirit kite, completely condensed from flames, appeared before them. Then, Gu Ziyue felt his collar tighten, and he was lifted by Li Chanfei and placed onto the fiery spirit kite’s back.

Whoosh—

Before Gu Ziyue could steady himself, the fiery spirit kite flapped its wings, and then carried Li Chanfei and Gu Ziyue into the air, swiftly flying towards the city’s outskirts.

The future Spirit Kite Douluo?

After Gu Ziyue steadied himself and stood firmly, looking at the fiery spirit kite beneath him, Gu Ziyue secretly guessed. There was a female Title Douluo among the Martial Soul Temple elders whose Martial Soul was a fiery spirit kite. So Gu Ziyue suspected that this Platinum Bishop named Li Chanfei was the future Spirit Kite Douluo.

Recalling how she dared to complain about Qian Xunji, it was likely due to her own pride stemming from her exceptional talent. However, even if she became a Title Douluo, it would be a matter of the future; now she was only a Soul Douluo.

Standing on the back of the fiery spirit kite, seeing that Li Chanfei clearly didn’t want to talk, perhaps she wasn’t interested in a weak Soul Master like him. Gu Ziyue remained calm, saying nothing, standing on the back of the fiery spirit kite, appreciating the scenery in the air.

This experience of flying in the air was Gu Ziyue’s first, feeling truly different. Looking down from the air, the various landscapes were exceptionally beautiful.

“Brat, when you were at the Tianbao Academy, your relationship with two female classmates seemed quite good, right? Those two are named Tang Yuehua and Bai Lu.”

While Gu Ziyue was enjoying the scenery, Li Chanfei finally spoke, and her first words were about Gu Ziyue’s time at Tianbao Academy. Before coming to pick up Gu Ziyue, she had gone to Tianbao Academy to learn about his background. As for Gu Ziyue’s past at the Liusha Academy in the Duchy, she already knew about it. Gu Ziyue had no problems at Liusha Academy; his background was clear, a commoner. What surprised her was that the two female classmates Gu Ziyue knew at Tianbao Academy were actually from the Hao Tian Sect. She only learned, while investigating Gu Ziyue, that the small Tianbao Academy actually had two people from the Hao Tian Sect.

“Yes, Bishop Li Chanfei!”

Gu Ziyue felt a slight tightening in his heart upon hearing this. He didn’t expect her to investigate him. However, considering he hadn’t joined the Hao Tian Sect, he relaxed.

“Then do you know their identities?”
