At the same time.
At the Star Dou Great Forest's first spirit soul tower, an opening ceremony was underway.
Over these four months, Xiao Ze had already finished training the several hundred Contractors, making them the first batch to acquire spirit souls.
They even acquired spirit souls earlier than Bibi Dong and the others.
After all, high-grade spirit souls were not that easy to obtain.
It required some waiting time.
"So many people came today," Ning Rongrong exclaimed, looking at the endless stream of Spirit Masters queuing to enter the spirit soul tower.
"That's for sure. After all, spirit souls are a new thing and very important for Spirit Masters. Coupled with Xiao Ze's reputation, many people definitely want them. The number of people at the other spirit soul towers is also about the same," Dugu Yan nodded.
"But Xiao Ze, won't there be a problem letting some of the spirit soul towers be managed by Spirit Beasts?" Huo Wu asked with some concern.
"No need to worry. Di Tian and the others want the spirit soul towers to be well-managed even more than we do. Besides, this is inherently an equal contract between Spirit Masters and spirit souls; there's no such thing as one being nobler than the other."
"That's true."
As the first Spirit Master who had contracted a spirit soul emerged from the spirit soul tower, the people behind him eagerly asked questions.
"Brother, is this spirit soul really useful? How does it feel?"
"Yeah, did your spirit ring change?"
The man nodded and immediately displayed his spirit rings.
Two yellow spirit rings looked very ordinary.
"My previous spirit ring configuration was one white and one yellow. Now it's two yellow, and it only cost a bit of money and was very safe.
But I warn you, when you choose a spirit soul, the spirit soul is also choosing you. If the spirit soul doesn't fancy you, you won't be able to contract it." With that, he left.
He needed to go out and earn money, as he would need to contract a second spirit soul next time, and the prices for a thousand year spirit soul and a hundred year spirit soul were different.
Seeing that his spirit rings had indeed changed, everyone immediately became excited.
"It really works!"
"Exactly, this spirit soul is incredibly awesome! I heard it can even help us in battle."
"That's great, I wonder if it will be my turn today. I also want to acquire a spirit soul."
"His Highness the Holy Son is truly a good person. He even shared such a heaven-defying method with ordinary Spirit Masters like us."
"That's right, when I go back today, I'm going to join Spirit Hall. Even though I'm trash, I can still do small things."
"I'm going too, let's go together!"
The spirit soul tower had quite a few Contractors, so the contracting speed was relatively fast.
Xiao Ze watched for a while and then left.
Although the relationship between Spirit Masters and Spirit Beasts had eased somewhat, it would still take some time to reach a certain level, and that would have to be a gradual process.
"Bing'er, Yue'er, tomorrow you two will go to the Extreme North Land with Headmaster Shui. I've already found suitable ten thousand year spirit souls for you, but you'll need to go and see them yourselves," Xiao Ze said.
"Thank you, Brother Xiao Ze, we'll depart tomorrow." Shui Yueer's sweet voice made Xiao Ze's body involuntarily tremble.
Helplessly, Xiao Ze tapped her head.
"Mmm..." Shui Yueer covered her head, pouting her cheeks, looking very cute.
Xiao Ze knew Shui Yueer was faking it, but he didn't dislike it.
Perhaps some people disliked others faking cuteness, but that was only if they weren't people they liked, nothing more.
"Don't talk like that next time, it's a bit disgusting."
"You've changed," Shui Yueer looked at Xiao Ze normally.
"Huh?"
"You weren't like this before. You used to like hearing me talk like that."
"That was before, now we're too familiar." Xiao Ze turned his head and saw Ning Rongrong and the others laughing.
There was nothing he could do about it, just like the feelings of being in love and being married were different.
"Alright, let's head back quickly. Now that Bibi Dong and the Elders have gone to discuss and build rapport with the hundred thousand year spirit souls they want.
If we don't go back soon, Spirit Hall will truly grind to a halt."
Shui Yueer stepped forward and hugged Xiao Ze's arm: "Let's go, let's go."
...In a dark forest.
"Follow me and enjoy the good life, or die!" Bibi Dong said indifferently, looking at the Death Spider Emperor before her.
Chrysanthemum Douluo, behind her, wiped a bead of sweat from his forehead: "Your Holiness the Supreme Pontiff, is this really alright? spirit souls are supposed to be treated equally. Are you threatening it like this?"
Ghost Douluo also felt a bit helpless. His Holiness the Supreme Pontiff might only be equal, even like a little girl, in front of Xiao Ze, but in front of others, it was impossible for her not to be Strong.
Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo had both found their preferred Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Beasts. Once they got along well, they could convert them into spirit soul contracts.
Both of these Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Beasts were nearing the end of their lifespans and were solitary, making them very suitable.
Their smooth progress was all thanks to Di Tian.
Di Tian, relying on his spatial power, constantly shuttled between various large and small Spirit Beast gathering places, 'negotiating' with these Spirit Beasts.
Those who disagreed had already become corpses; the remaining ones were naturally easy to talk to.
"Do you understand the Death Spider Emperor, or do I?" Bibi Dong snorted coldly.
Chrysanthemum Douluo fell silent.
His Holiness the Supreme Pontiff's one Spirit was the Death Spider Emperor, and the other was the Soul Eating Spider Emperor, both spiders.
Moreover, His Holiness the Supreme Pontiff had also killed quite a few Spider Emperor Spirit Beasts.
The Death Spider Emperor felt the aura emanating from Bibi Dong and took half a step back. This person was a formidable one.
"Hmm?" Bibi Dong's scepter lightly tapped the ground, and a faint amount of her spirit power was released.
The Death Spider Emperor immediately knelt.
It felt the aura of death. A Limit Douluo combined with Rakshasa divine force, Bibi Dong's current strength was second only to Qian Daoliu.
How could it possibly win?
"Good, get up and follow me." Bibi Dong nodded in satisfaction.
Bibi Dong's current mental force was sufficient to absorb one hundred thousand year spirit soul. As for the second spirit soul, it was highly probable, but she needed to find it first.
The Soul Eating Spider Emperor was still somewhat rare, and no ten thousand year ones had been found yet, but it was only a matter of time.
Back at Spirit Hall.
Bibi Dong asked Xiao Ze to personally handle the contract.
Xiao Ze saw that even the Death Spider Emperor, which had directly knelt, could actually be successfully contracted.
He didn't understand. Was the Death Spider Emperor an M, who just liked such a strong master?
Red, Red, Red, Red, Red, Black, Red, Red, Red.
This was the current spirit ring configuration of Bibi Dong's second Spirit, the Death Spider Emperor Spirit.
Bibi Dong frowned: "There's still one ten thousand year spirit ring missing. I can't possibly give the second spirit soul I absorb to the Death Spider Emperor Spirit as well."
She looked at the somewhat out-of-place ten thousand year spirit ring, feeling quite annoyed.
"It's simple. You can ask the Rakshasa God to give you some divine force to raise the Death Spider Emperor's age limit.
A Spirit Beast over two ten thousand years old can be called a fierce beast, and fierce beasts can provide six spirit rings. That would make up for it."
