    Chapter 65: Participating in the Tournament

    “Golden Light Talisman, go!”

    Gu Ziyue didn’t hesitate. He controlled the Golden Light Talisman and sent it flying towards Qian Xunji.

    *Whoosh—*

    *Thwack—*

    After Gu Ziyue’s Golden Light Talisman collided with Qian Xunji, it quickly dissipated into a ball of golden light, causing no harm to Qian Xunji.

    “The attack power is equivalent to that of a great Soul Master. It’s a bit weak, but your Golden Light Talisman is quite agile!”

    “Since you mainly play a support role, having an offensive Soul Skill can better prevent enemy targeting, which is ultimately good.”

    “However, with only this one skill, it will still be very difficult to become a combat Soul Master.”

    “Therefore, Xiao Yi, it’s better for you to focus on support for now!”

    After observing Gu Ziyue’s attack, Qian Xunji quickly judged its power and spoke to Gu Ziyue.

    “Yes, Master!”

    Gu Ziyue nodded in agreement, without any objection.

    For now, that was indeed the case. However, once he further developed the Golden Light Talisman, it would be different.

    He also had other ideas about using the Golden Light Talisman.

    A single Golden Light Talisman was too weak. What if I attach it to a sword?

    A Golden Light Swordsmanship technique shouldn’t be bad, right?

    Gu Ziyue thought it was feasible, but he would have to try it to know for sure.

    “Dong’er, you came to ask for that immortal herb, didn’t you?”

    After understanding Gu Ziyue’s situation, Qian Xunji turned to Bibi Dong.

    “Yes, yes, Master, my junior brother has re-absorbed the immortal herb, and I want one too!”

    Bibi Dong quickly nodded.

    Knowing that Gu Ziyue had improved so much at once, she couldn’t wait to experience the feeling of rapid leveling again.

    “No, I can’t give you that immortal herb!”

    “We’ve studied that immortal herb. Its ability to breed poisonous creatures is too strong, so it’s not suitable for you yet.”

    “If you can’t control it, you’ll be poisoned!”

    “I can’t let you take that risk.”

    “Besides, immortal herbs aren’t something you should consume frequently. You should rely on your own efforts to cultivate your Soul Power!”

    “It’s alright for Xiao Yi because his level is low, and he didn’t improve his Soul Power last time. But you are different. Rapidly increasing your level twice in a short period is not a good thing!”

    Qian Xunji, who usually doted on Bibi Dong, didn’t agree to her request this time. Instead, he seriously warned her.

    “Ah…”

    Bibi Dong didn’t expect her master to refuse, and she immediately felt a little委屈 (委屈 – wronged, aggrieved).

    “Ask your junior brother!”

    Seeing Bibi Dong’s expression, Qian Xunji turned to Gu Ziyue.

    Bibi Dong quickly turned to look at Gu Ziyue.

    “Ahem…”

    “Senior Sister, it’s like this. I’ve mentioned before that although that immortal herb suits you, it also carries certain risks!”

    “And as Master said, it’s not advisable to rely on external things to improve your cultivation multiple times in a short period.”

    Although Qian Xunji hadn’t told Gu Ziyue beforehand, he immediately chose to cooperate with Qian Xunji’s statement.

    Such concerns did indeed exist, and it was better to be cautious.

    “Hmph!”

    “Fine!”

    Hearing Gu Ziyue say the same thing, Bibi Dong knew it was impossible this time. She couldn’t experience the joy of multiple level-ups for now.

    “Master, I don’t need the immortal herb, but you have to promise me one thing!”

    Knowing that the immortal herb was out of the question for now, Bibi Dong immediately looked up and made a request to Qian Xunji.

    “Alright, tell me.”

    Seeing Bibi Dong being obedient, Qian Xunji was very happy. Without asking what her request was, he readily agreed.

    “I want to join the Martial Soul Temple team and participate in the next Soul Master Tournament!”

    Seeing that Qian Xunji agreed, Bibi Dong excitedly stated her request.

    Bibi Dong had long yearned to participate in the Soul Master Tournament. Before, she felt that her Soul Power level was insufficient, and her master wouldn’t agree, so she hadn’t mentioned it.

    But now it was different. She was confident that she could reach level 50 and become a Soul King in two and a half years.

    She was already at level 42.

    She reached level 39 six months ago after consuming the immortal herb, level 40 three months ago, level 41 after absorbing a Soul Ring, and now she’s at level 42.

    “Master, I’m definitely going to break through and become a Soul King by the next Soul Master Tournament. Participating is absolutely no problem!”

    “And my junior brother will also go. With his current Soul Power level, he can also break through to level 40 and become a Soul Emperor by the time the Soul Master Tournament begins. Participating is perfectly adequate.”

    “My junior brother’s Soul Skills are also very useful in battle. With my junior brother and me in the Martial Soul Temple team, we’ll be invincible!”

    Worried that Qian Xunji would change his mind, Bibi Dong confidently stated her prediction and brought Gu Ziyue along.

    “Participate in the Soul Master Tournament?”

    Qian Xunji was slightly taken aback after hearing Bibi Dong’s words.

    He had never considered Bibi Dong participating in the Soul Master Tournament.

    Mainly because Bibi Dong was still too young; she was only 12 years old, and he hadn’t considered letting her participate so soon.

    He had considered it for Gu Ziyue, but Gu Ziyue’s Soul Power level had been too low before, so he had dismissed the idea.

    Only now, after hearing Bibi Dong’s words, did he realize.

    Judging by Bibi Dong and Gu Ziyue’s current cultivation speed, Bibi Dong would indeed be able to break through to level 50 and become a Soul King in two and a half years.

    Gu Ziyue breaking through to level 40 and becoming a Soul Emperor would also be no problem.

    His two disciples could indeed participate in the next Soul Master Tournament!

    “Haha, good!”

    “Good disciple, if you want to participate in the Soul Master Tournament, naturally, there’s no problem!”

    “However, Dong’er, you must guarantee that you will break through to Soul King before the tournament begins.”

    After realizing this, Qian Xunji immediately laughed and agreed to Bibi Dong’s words. However, to ensure that Bibi Dong would cultivate diligently, he still added a simple requirement.

    In his opinion, asking Bibi Dong to break through to level 50 and become a Soul King at age 15 was indeed a small request.

    A 15-year-old Soul King!

    Haha…

    Thinking of his exceptionally talented disciples, Qian Xunji couldn’t help but secretly rejoice.

    By then, he wouldn’t need to hide Bibi Dong’s level anymore.

    He could let the entire continent see how outstanding his disciples were.

    “Yes, yes, Master, I will definitely do it!”

    Hearing Qian Xunji actually agree, Bibi Dong happily jumped up and down.

    “We’re actually going to participate in this Soul Master Tournament…”

    Gu Ziyue wasn’t overly excited. He wasn’t a true native of Douluo Continent, so he didn’t have the urge to participate in the Soul Master Tournament no matter what.

    However, Gu Ziyue was still somewhat interested in the Soul Master Tournament two and a half years later.

    Tang Hao didn’t participate last time, so he would definitely encounter him this time!

    After all, if Tang Hao didn’t participate, he wouldn’t be eligible after turning 25!
