After that, Wukong flew off into the distance.
Just a few seconds later, he heard a long howl coming from the area where Zhu Zhuqing was.
"Hahaha! I never thought the day of my Netherworld Family's rise would come so quickly! Hahahahahaha," Duke Nether Zhu Yehe shouted.
Just from the voice, Wukong knew it was Zhu Zhuqing's father, who was now his father-in-law.
It seems I don't need to worry about Zhuqing's safety. Wukong flew towards the distance with peace of mind.
"Since I've already fallen out with Tang San, there's no need for me to help him anymore. His father taught him the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer. I'll just have to find a chance to repay the favor later."
"But I didn't expect him to fall out with me because of Yu Xiaogang."
"I've seen through him. He keeps those who are useful to him and discards those who aren't."
What? Did I insult Yu Xiaogang first? He only tore off the mask with me then, what a load of crap! I don't believe in his whole "one day a teacher, a lifetime a father" spiel.
Even if he truly adopted that mentality later, I don't believe he had much genuine affection for Yu Xiaogang when they first met a month ago.
It was simply mutual exploitation. Tang San needed a mentor to guide him in theory, and Yu Xiaogang needed a test subject to prove his theories. That's what brought them together.
And Tang San thought he was a genius, but he didn't expect a variable like me to appear.
It's like playing a game. You think you're the strongest in your tier, but then someone younger and more capable than you appears. Tell me, would you accept that?
Now that Zhu Zhuqing is the designated little wife, Dai Mubai is finished. From now on, the Netherwhite Tiger martial soul fusion skill won't appear between the two of them.
With the disappearance of the Netherwhite Tiger, a powerful burst skill, Shrek Academy is already half-crippled. Wukong isn't the type to be ruthlessly decisive. If the other party doesn't provoke him, he won't go to the extent of eradicating them.
As long as Tang San doesn't cross his bottom line in the future, he won't do anything to the original Shrek Seven Devils.
"Sigh, what should I do next?" An orange arc flashed across the blue sky.
"I can't steal the Amethyst Night Pearl, damn it! I should say it already belongs to me. After all, the Zhu family will definitely be mine in the future, hehe."
"How about I go to the Spirit Hall for a visit? I won't go back to Notting Academy. The resources there are too limited, and there's also a scumbag and two schemers there. Why bother going there and making myself miserable?"
Then, he calmed his qi, opened the burst mode, and a white aura emanated from his body as he used the Sky Dance Technique to fly towards the Spirit Hall in Notting City, Heaven Dou Empire.
Southwest of the Heaven Dou Empire, Fasnuo Province, Notting City Spirit Hall.
"This is the Spirit Hall of Notting City, it's way better than the one in Pear Blossom Village!" Tang San exclaimed.
The Spirit Hall in Pear Blossom Village was just a slightly larger wooden house, but the Spirit Hall in Notting City looked like a large villa.
Wukong clapped his head. "Geez, the Spirit Hall in Notting City is already this luxurious. I can't imagine how extravagant Sister Dong's Papal Palace must be."
Entering the reception hall, "Hmm, it seems like Brother Tao isn't here."
At that moment, a pretty female Spirit Master happened to pass by Wukong. He reached out and stopped her, asking, "Miss, sorry to bother you. I want to join the Spirit Hall. What procedures do I need to go through?"
That female Spirit Master was also a long-running extra in countless fanfics, Tao's wife, Sisi.
Being a Spirit Master in a backwater place like Notting City, Sisi was annoyed by Wukong suddenly stopping her.
Then, she turned her body to face Wukong. Two seconds later, her attitude did a 360-degree turnaround. The clothes Wukong was wearing were the Wu Daoist Robe. As a woman, Sisi could tell at a glance that the fabric was extraordinary. Coupled with Wukong's handsome face and his unusually developed physique, it was easy to mistake him for a young man in his teens.
Sisi immediately put on a smile and patiently told Wukong, "Go up to the second floor first. Then, go straight to the innermost door. That's Master Mashuno's studio. You can handle the admission procedures there."
"Okay, thank you, Sister. Sister is so kind," Wukong said with a sweet smile to Sisi and then walked away.
Upon reaching the second floor, Wukong headed towards the innermost room. He knocked on the door, and an aged voice called out from within, "Come in, the door's unlocked."
Entering the room, an old man was seated at a desk, attending to some matters, while Brother Tao was writing a report on the other side.
"It's you, kid! Did you finally change your mind and want to join the Spirit Hall?" Su Yuntao looked at Wukong in surprise.
"Bishop, this is the genius with the Silver Needle Martial Soul and innate full soul power that I mentioned to you before."
"Oh, it's him?" Mashuno said. "So, kid, are you here to register as a Spirit Master or to join the Spirit Hall?"
Wukong replied, "I'm here to join the Spirit Hall."
Su Yuntao exclaimed in surprise, "You've already obtained your first soul ring so quickly?"
"That's right, and my Martial Soul has also undergone some changes." Wukong summoned the Golden Cudgel, and an aura belonging to a God-level Martial Soul filled the entire room.
"This!" Mashuno stared wide-eyed, unable to believe it. "This is a top-tier tool Martial Soul! Innate full Soul Power, a top-tier tool Martial Soul... This is definitely a rare genius!" Mashuno certainly didn't know about a God-level Martial Soul, so he could only treat the Golden Cudgel as a top-tier tool Martial Soul.
While they were still astonished, two black, ten-thousand-year soul rings slowly rose and encircled Wukong.
Su Yuntao immediately felt that he wouldn't have to worry about the rest of his life. Helping him awaken his spirit was definitely the most correct thing he had ever done.
At six years old, possessing two ten-thousand-year soul rings... How much of a genius would one have to be to achieve that? Moreover, how did he obtain the ten-thousand-year soul rings? This proved that he also had a power behind him. Recommending this genius to the Papal Palace would definitely bring many rewards.
Mashuno's eyes welled up with tears. "I'm getting old! It seems the young people outside are getting stronger with each generation."
"I'd like to ask, if I join now, can I go to Wuhun City immediately?"
Su Yuntao said, "Yes, but we need to report this matter to the Platinum Bishop first, and then the Platinum Bishop will directly submit it to His Holiness the Pope for approval."
"About how long will that take?" Wukong asked.
"It'll probably take about a month. It's a long way from here to Heaven Dou Imperial City, and the message has to go through Heaven Dou Imperial City before being sent to Spirit Hall."
"Ah, that long? Alright then, notify me in a month. I'll just cultivate on my own for now."
Mashuno said, "Little friend, would you like to register as a Spirit Master first? That way, you'll receive a monthly subsidy."
"No need. I'm not short on money right now."
Are you kidding me? He had just looted some money from those Spirit Saints, and there was an Amethyst Gold Card worth 5,000 gold soul coins in the soul tool. Moreover, he even possessed the Heirloom Seal of the Realm from the Star Luo Empire. With just this one item, I'm already richer than a nation.
Money wasn't an issue in his eyes anymore.
"Ugh, the accursed, evil money!"
Hearing this, Mashuno knew that the child in front of him was probably even wealthier than he was. Indeed, how could a force capable of hunting two ten-thousand-year soul beasts be short on money?
"But he already has his own power. Would he truly join the Spirit Hall out of loyalty?" Mashuno wondered anxiously.
