"Thank you for your kindness, Grand Elder."
Thinking this, Chen Changfeng immediately cupped his hands towards Qian Daoliu and said directly, "From now on, Changfeng will be the Arbitration Elder of the Hall of Elders, obeying orders but not summons, and will sweep away and destroy all powerful opponents of the Spirit Hall." Upon hearing
this,
not only was Qian Daoliu stunned,
but even the six Grand Elders couldn't help but gasp.
This young man is ambitious! This temperament is somewhat similar to their own.
He actually wants to be the Arbitration Elder of the Spirit Hall?
You must know that the Arbitration Elder is nominally an elder, but in reality, he is the "executioner" of the Spirit Hall, specifically responsible for eliminating powerful opponents that threaten its development. It must be said that this kid is quite shrewd; the Arbitration Elder will not influence the various decisions made by the Spirit Hall, meaning he doesn't want to interfere with any of the Spirit Hall's growth.
He is only responsible for destruction.
What a fine example of obeying orders but not summons!
Besides his unusual temperament, this little brat also has a bit of a personality.
What does "obey orders but not summons" mean? Basically, it means if there's something to discuss, you give the order, and I'll do it for you. Otherwise, don't bother me, and I won't fawn over you.
Surprisingly, Qian Daoliu actually fell for this.
His eyes were full of admiration for Chen Changfeng; this child was destined for greatness!
"Hahaha! Good, I'll make you the Judgement Elder, obey orders but not summons!" Qian Daoliu laughed loudly.
"Grand Elder,"
Golden Crocodile Douluo was startled, "This little guy is only six years old, and you..."
"No need to say more, I know what I'm doing."
Qian Daoliu interrupted Golden Crocodile, thinking, "Is this guy stupid?
So what if he's six?
The fact that he can unleash such a powerful soul skill at such a young age is what should be the focus. "
Now, Qian Daoliu was beginning to suspect that Chen Changfeng was indeed a divine child.
This kind of peerless prodigy who could give the Spirit Hall an unlimited future was someone the Spirit Hall would definitely try to win over at all costs. Although the position of the Arbitration Elder was extremely prestigious, it was far more worthwhile than bringing an insurmountable enemy to the Spirit Hall in the future.
In this world where strength reigns supreme, power represents everything.
Why bother about his age?
Qian Daoliu carefully examined Chen Changfeng for a moment, then suddenly spoke softly, "Changfeng, you've lived in Spirit City for six years. Do you understand the purpose of the Spirit Hall's existence?"
Hmm?
Chen Changfeng's heart skipped a beat. Was this a test?
After all, being an Arbitration Elder wasn't easy.
Thinking this,
Chen Changfeng took a deep breath and said, "Existing for destruction."
"Destruction?!"
Upon hearing this, not only were the six elders startled, but even Qian Daoliu couldn't help but gasp.
This little guy was truly astonishing!
The Spirit Hall existed for destruction?
A flicker of surprise crossed Qian Daoliu's eyes. "Oh? Tell me your opinion."
"Grand Elder, the destruction I'm talking about isn't the kind you're thinking of."
Chen Changfeng steadied himself and calmly said, "Douluo Continent is a world of imperial nobles. Even Soul Masters who want to rise are hindered by four mountains: Martial Soul, poverty, talent, and birth. The mindset of the privileged is deeply ingrained. The two great empires treat commoners like straw dogs, trampling, bullying, and enslaving them at will. Shouldn't this be destroyed?"
"Although the Spirit Hall helps children awaken their Martial Souls for free, subsidizes low-level Soul Masters, and even allows low-level Soul Masters to obtain Soul Rings using Spirit Hall advancement certificates from the Soul Hunting Mountain Range's captive Soul Beasts, betrayal is inevitable in the end. They only need a title from the two great empires to become their Soul Masters."
"The mindset of the privileged is rooted in the two great empires, and it rots within them."
"Such a corrupt world, shouldn't it be destroyed?"
He answered the question.
Qian Daoliu's emotions shifted from incomprehension to approval, then to recognition, and finally to shock.
This young man.
His heart was exceptionally dark.
But this suited him perfectly; such a person was most suitable to be a judge elder of the Spirit Hall.
"Good lad!"
Qian Daoliu nodded in satisfaction. "From now on, you will stay by my side and study with Xiaoxue. When you grow up, I will make you a judge elder of the Spirit Hall."

Upon hearing this, Chen Changfeng bowed again.
Who was Xiaoxue?
The Xiaoxue Qian Daoliu spoke of was naturally Qian Renxue, the Holy Maiden of the Spirit Hall.
Being able to receive Qian Daoliu's training alongside the future Angel God showed her current importance in his eyes.
However,
the training process was naturally far more arduous than that of the Golden Generation of the Spirit Academy, even bordering on monstrous. After all, Qian Daoliu aimed to cultivate Qian Renxue into an Angel God, and his methods were far beyond what ordinary people could match.
One year later.
In the Ghost-Faced Pig Mountain Range,
a year after it was destroyed by lightning, this place became a forbidden area of the Spirit Hall, and news of that day was also suppressed by the Hall of Worship.
Now, the Ghost-Faced Pig Mountain Range welcomed the revival of spring grass.
The desolate forest finally ushered in new life.
Chen Changfeng stood quietly in the mountains, gazing at the vibrant vegetation, his understanding of destruction deepening.
Rebirth.
That is the meaning of destruction.
Just as Chen Changfeng was lost in thought, a petite figure appeared behind him.
The little girl had long, flowing golden hair and exquisitely delicate features. Her large eyes were slightly narrowed as she silently crept towards Chen Changfeng. Her footsteps were light, as if afraid of alerting him.
A sneak attack!
Qian Renxue instantly sprang up, a burst of golden light flashing as she struck directly at Chen Changfeng's back.
"Again?"
Sensing the palm strike behind him, Chen Changfeng's lips curled into a slight smile. "Still not decisive enough."
As he spoke,
Chen Changfeng suddenly shifted his body to the left, narrowly avoiding Qian Renxue's palm strike, and then smoothly grabbed her wrist.
Qian Renxue's small hand was soft and smooth, like touching a ball of cotton, but Chen Changfeng had no time to appreciate this beauty, because Qian Renxue's arm had already turned golden.
Martial Soul Possession.
This was the right reaction.
Chen Changfeng smiled inwardly. Qian Renxue's arms, now imbued with her martial soul, looked delicate but had become incredibly resilient. His hand felt as if he were grasping a scorching furnace, and he was about to pull back when he suddenly realized the burning sensation had vanished.
Instead of feeling relieved, Chen Changfeng frowned.
This idiot, so soft-hearted again?
Was she afraid of hurting herself?
A chill ran through him, and Chen Changfeng seized the opportunity to grab Qian Renxue's wrist, pulling her sharply.
Qian Renxue immediately felt her legs give way, a force lifting her off the ground, and she lost her balance.
"Ouch!"
With a scream, Qian Renxue collapsed to the ground.
Chen Changfeng nimbly pinned Qian Renxue's right hand behind her back, causing her arm to go numb and unable to exert any strength. Then, he straddled her completely.
Subdued her in a second.
"How many times have I told you? When you strike, go all out! Why can't you learn?" Chen Changfeng looked down at Qian Renxue, his face serious.
"Brother Changfeng, you're bullying Xiaoxue again!"
Qian Renxue angrily punched the grass in front of her, her face full of resentment. "You're hurting me!"
Feeling Qian Renxue's struggle beneath him, and the soul-stirring elasticity,
Chen Changfeng was pulled back to reality.
