Chapter 149 Dean of the Spirit Academy
. Inside the Hall of Offerings.
Qian Xunji sized up Dugu Bo beside him.
After a moment's hesitation, Qian Xunji tentatively said,
"Elder Dugu Bo, why don't you become Elder Yue Guan's deputy and help him handle some affairs within the hall..."
Hearing this, Dugu Bo also realized.
Realizing that Qian Xunji and Qian Daoliu were preparing to give him some authority within the Spirit Hall,
Dugu Bo shook his head and said,
"I'm truly sorry, Your Holiness, I do not wish to hold any position.
I'm sorry to trouble you."
"This..."
Seeing Dugu Bo's reaction, Qian Xunji frowned.
"Elder Dugu Bo, are you complaining that the position is too small?
Elder Yue Guan is in charge of punishments within the hall.
Even if you become his deputy, the power and status you possess will not be insignificant."
Hearing this, Dugu Bo shook his head at Qian Xunji.
"Your Holiness, you misunderstand me. I'm not complaining about the position you've offered.
I'm focused on cultivation and don't crave power. I only want to cultivate in seclusion to improve my soul power..."
Hearing this, Qian Xunji fell silent.
He had originally hoped that Dugu Bo, like Yue Guan and Gui Mei, would handle all sorts of troublesome matters for him.
However, judging from Dugu Bo's current attitude, Qian Xunji knew his hopes had been dashed...
Seeing this, Qin Ming stepped forward and advised,
"Your Holiness, why not let Elder Dugu Bo be nominally appointed as the dean of the Martial Soul Academy?"
Hearing Qin Ming say this, Qian Xunji was somewhat surprised; this was indeed something he hadn't considered.
Currently, the dean of the Martial Soul Academy was merely a Platinum Bishop at the Soul Douluo level.
Having Dugu Bo replace that Platinum Bishop as dean wouldn't be inappropriate.
Moreover, due to the upcoming 'marriage-urging' plan, a large number of exceptionally talented children were expected to be born in the Martial Soul Hall in the next few years.Looking for someone in Karachi today
At that time, those children will inevitably choose to attend the Spirit Academy.
This alone will elevate the Spirit Academy's status within the Spirit Hall to a whole new level.
At this point, appointing a Soul Douluo as the dean would indeed be somewhat inappropriate.
Just as Qian Xunji was pondering this, Qian Daoliu immediately agreed.
"Qin Ming's suggestion is good.
Appointing Elder Dugu Bo as the dean of the Spirit Academy is indeed a good choice.
Having Elder Dugu Bo in this position will not diminish his status as a titled elder, and it will also ensure that Elder Dugu Bo has enough free time."
As he spoke, Qian Daoliu walked up to Dugu Bo.
"Elder Dugu Bo, why don't we do as Qin Ming said and have you serve as the dean of our Spirit Academy?
You don't need to worry; being the dean doesn't involve too many trivial matters.
You can delegate those mundane tasks to the other teachers."
Seeing that Qian Daoliu had said so, Dugu Bo no longer refused and nodded in agreement.
"Thank you for your kind offer, Your Highness. I am willing to accept this position..."
Upon seeing this, Qian Daoliu looked at Qian Xunji beside him.
"Your Holiness, you have no objections to this matter, do you?"
Hearing this, Qian Xunji was momentarily speechless.
He knew that Qian Daoliu was only asking him this as a formality, not because he truly wanted to adopt his opinion.
Realizing this, Qian Xunji couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
"I have no objections."
As he spoke, Qian Xunji glanced at his father again.
'I don't know when it started, but Father has always been intentionally or unintentionally suppressing me...'
Recalling the past year's experiences, Qian Xunji suddenly realized the problem.
'A year ago, no matter what I did, Father always fully supported me, until I did that to Bibi Dong. Only then did
Father and the other elders' attitudes towards me change...'
Realizing that the problem lay with himself, a bitter feeling welled up in Qian Xunji's heart.
'I know I have brought shame upon the holy angel family.' But I've already tried my best to make it up to her...'
After sighing again, Qian Xunji became somewhat irritated.
He knew that standing here would only attract Qian Daoliu's cold shoulder, so he had no desire to stay any longer.
After clearing his throat to draw everyone's attention, Qian Xunji said to Qian Daoliu,
"High Priest, I still have some religious affairs to finish, I need to leave for a while."
Hearing this, Qian Daoliu waved his hand at Qian Xunji.
"Go ahead, don't forget, you need to implement the things I just asked you to do as soon as possible. You
absolutely cannot be like you were half a year ago, your efficiency needs to be higher..."
Hearing this, Qian Xunji nodded silently.
Then, he turned and walked towards the hall's exit.
Just as Qian Xunji was about to walk out the door, Qian Daoliu called out to him again.
"Pope, wait a moment."
"What is it?"
Qian Xunji turned around.
He saw that Qian Daoliu was pointing at Dugu Bo.
"Your Holiness, don't forget to arrange Elder Dugu Bo's title conferment ceremony.
Elder Dugu Bo has made immense contributions to our Spirit Hall.
I will personally officiate the ceremony for him, so please ensure this matter is finalized as soon as possible..."
"Yes."
Qian Xunji, feeling like a laborer, replied listlessly.
Turning around, Qian Xunji quickened his pace, heading towards his Papal Palace without looking back...
Meanwhile, inside the Hall of Worship.
Qian Daoliu put on a smiling face again, looking at Dugu Bo and asking,
"Elder Dugu Bo, have you decided on your title?"
"No."
Dugu Bo shook his head at Qian Daoliu.
Seeing this, Qian Daoliu suggested,
"How about using your Azure Phosphorous Serpent Emperor Spirit as your title?
Azure Phosphorous Douluo, how about it?"
Hearing this, Dugu Bo stroked his beard and pondered.
Ordinary Title Douluos use their Spirit as their title, and Dugu Bo didn't want to be like them.
Therefore, he wasn't very satisfied with this title.
However, he couldn't come up with a better idea for the moment...
Seeing this, Qin Ming suggested,
"Elder Dugu Bo, how about you use 'Poison' as your title?"
Hearing Qin Ming's suggestion, Dugu Bo repeated it to himself twice.
After a moment's thought, Dugu Bo felt even more strongly that this title suited him.
He believed his poison skills were unparalleled, and no one could match him in the application and research of poison.
The title Qin Ming proposed perfectly emphasized this point.
Thinking of this, Dugu Bo nodded to Qin Ming.
"Your Highness, your suggestion is excellent. I'll use 'Poison' as my title!"
Seeing that the matter was settled, Qian Daoliu nodded.
"Alright, then it's decided.
'Poison' will be your title.
I and the other elders will all attend your title conferment ceremony."
Saying this, Qian Daoliu turned to look at the other elders present.
"Fourth brother, fifth brother, sixth brother, seventh brother, you lot, hurry up and refine the immortal herb first.
Let's see if it can help you break through your bottlenecks..."
