Dugu Bo accepted the two spirit bones and examined them. One was a skull, and the other was a left arm bone. The aura emanating from them wasn't particularly strong, and their quality didn't seem impressive.
Dugu Bo had anticipated this. How could Spirit Hall possibly give him valuable spirit bones?
However, the skull was of the poison attribute. Was this deliberately meant to disgust Dugu Bo? Although it aligned with his attribute, Dugu Bo already possessed the Medusa Skull.
The Medusa's Gaze technique he had used earlier was a spirit bone ability. Even if this poison-type spirit bone was given to him, he couldn't absorb it again.
Dugu Bo didn't mind. If he couldn't use it, couldn't he leave it for his granddaughter? Seeing Dugu Bo receive two spirit bones in one go, the people present were consumed with jealousy. However, with so many Titled Douluo present today, even if they had the guts, they wouldn't dare to take any action.
"Old ghost, when did you become so shameless, actually attacking a child who's only nine years old?" Dugu Bo's feud with Ghost Douluo had been offset by these two spirit bones, but he still didn't like Spirit Hall and didn't mind adding a few more insults.
"Hmph, I was merely testing him. As a Titled Douluo, how could I truly target a child? Jade Scale Douluo, now that you've obtained the spirit bones, shouldn't you mind your own business? This is a matter between our Spirit Hall and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School," Ghost Douluo said unhappily.
"If he can't interfere, what about me? Ghost Douluo, if you don't give me an explanation today, I'll make you die regrettably on the spot." Chen Xin stood in front of Tianlin, his killing intent fully exposed.
Ghost Douluo's attack just now indeed lacked killing intent, and seemed to be mainly a lesson, but to attack in front of him, his Master, was he taking him for dead?
"I said I was just testing the genius of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. Chen Xin, look, isn't he doing well? At most, I'll apologize." Ghost Douluo wasn't afraid at all. He had Spirit Hall behind him. If the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School took action against him at this time, they would be courting death.
"Master, I'm fine, don't worry!" Tianlin tugged at Chen Xin's sleeve and shook his head at him. Although with Chen Xin's current strength, he could easily deal with Ghost Douluo.
But this would allow Spirit Hall to openly attack the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, which was so-called having a justifiable reason. The current Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School couldn't compare with Spirit Hall at full strength.
Chen Xin suppressed his anger. This time, he stood beside Tianlin, fearing that Ghost Douluo would attack again.
However, Ghost Douluo wasn't so foolish. Taking the opponent by surprise could achieve the greatest effect. Now that the other party was prepared, attacking again would only completely enrage Chen Xin, which wouldn't be worth it.
"Alright, let's get back to the main topic. Our Spirit Hall bestows upon Yin Yang the title of Thunder God, do you have any objections?"
This was his main purpose for coming today, and he wouldn't back down.
"Sect Master Ning, Spirit Hall has given Your Excellency Thunder God such an imposing title, shouldn't you thank the elders of Spirit Hall? It would be impolite," Hu Yan Zhen said gleefully. He was definitely firmly on Spirit Hall's side.
"Accepting it is accepting it, what's the big deal?" Tianlin said with a smile, then turned to look at Dugu Bo, "Senior Dugu, thank you for saving my life just now. By the way, what was your title again, Poison Douluo, or Jade Scale Douluo?"
Dugu Bo immediately understood Tianlin's meaning, revealing a malicious smile and loudly saying, "This old man is of course the Poison Douluo who dominates the world with poison!"
Jade Scale Douluo was the title Spirit Hall gave to Dugu Bo, but Dugu Bo didn't acknowledge it at all. He still preferred the Poison Douluo he had chosen himself. The world basically referred to him as Poison Douluo.
Ghost Douluo secretly thought something was wrong. He had been outmaneuvered by this brat again. His meaning was clear: whether the Douluo Hall in your Spirit City recorded Thunder God or Thunder Eagle was up to you, but we would just call him Thunder Eagle Douluo.
"That's right, accepting it is accepting it. Ghost Douluo, thank you for the title of Thunder God, I, Thunder Eagle Douluo, thank you here." Yin Yang cupped his hands slightly.
"Congratulations, Thunder Eagle Douluo."
"Your Excellency Thunder Eagle, greetings!"
Yu Yuanzhen and Shi Lei stepped forward to offer their congratulations. Spirit Hall seemed to be putting on a one-man show at this time.
At this time, Yin Yang's situation was similar to Dugu Bo's. You can bestow your titles, and we'll bestow ours. How the world calls them is their business, but in most cases, most people would still recognize the title chosen by the Titled Douluo themselves, because that was the right that a Titled Douluo should have.
People would instead feel dissatisfied with the domineering Spirit Hall. Why do people pursue strength? Isn't it to seek freedom and do as they please? If they had to listen to you even at the level of Titled Douluo, then what was the point of cultivation? "Damn brat!" Ghost Douluo looked at Tianlin and wished he could tear him apart, but with Sword Douluo standing close by, he couldn't find any opportunity at all.
But at this time, someone couldn't bear it any longer. A young man wearing fiery red armor stepped forward and shouted, "How dare you despise our Spirit Hall, you're courting death."
"Who are you?" Tianlin asked.
"I am Yan, a disciple of Spirit Hall, and I now challenge you to a Soul Duel, a death match. Do you dare to accept?"
So he was Yan from the original Golden Generation trio of the Spirit Hall, no wonder he was so arrogant. Then the other two should be Xie Yue and Hu Liena.
"I am Xie Yue, a disciple of Ghost Douluo. Do you dare to have a Soul Duel with me, a deathmatch as well."
"And me, Hu Liena, a disciple of Pope Your Excellency."
Before Tianlin could ask, the two introduced themselves. All three of them looked at Tianlin with extreme hatred. They regarded the Spirit Hall as their heaven, and anyone who dared to despise the Spirit Hall was their mortal enemy. Soul Duels were generally divided into sparring or life-and-death matches. If Tianlin agreed, even if they killed Tianlin in the arena, no one could say anything.
Ghost Douluo's mind raced, realizing this was a good opportunity. He couldn't take action himself, but the younger generation could. "Sect Master Ning, how about we make a bet?"
"What do you want to bet?" Ning Fengzhi asked.
Ghost Douluo chuckled with a hint of scheming success, "Hehe, let's bet on the right to this Titled Douluo title. Your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School will send three young people to face these three children of my Spirit Hall. If you win, my Spirit Hall will no longer interfere with the title. If we win, Yin Yang must announce his acceptance of the title Thunder God and announce it to the entire continent."
Ning Fengzhi hesitated upon hearing this. He could see that the three young men and women before him, although only around fifteen years old, already possessed the strength of four-ring Soul Ancestors. Currently, no one of the same age in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School was their opponent.
"Sect Master Ning, the strength of a force cannot be judged solely by the present. The younger generation is the foundation. You wouldn't be afraid, would you?" Hu Yan Zhen suddenly said in a strange tone.
"It's not that I'm afraid, it's just that this bet is unfair." Tianlin secretly winked at Ning Fengzhi, signaling him to rest assured, and then continued, "A Titled Douluo choosing their own title is a rightful privilege. The Spirit Hall wanting to deprive him of this right is already excessive. Do you want to get something for nothing?"
"Then what do you want?" Ghost Douluo didn't treat Tianlin as a child at all at this time. This guy was too scheming.
Tianlin held up one finger, "You must at least take out a Spirit Bone, and we don't want inferior goods. It must be over ten thousand years old, a gem-type Spirit Bone. If you take it out as a bet, we will accept. In addition, the deathmatch is only against me, the other two are for strategic duels, how about it?"
