Everyone was suddenly stunned upon hearing this, none of them understanding what Bibi Dong meant by those words.
However, Rosen and Xiao Wu knew perfectly well, because during the battle just now, Xiao Wu's identity as a hundred-thousand-year soul beast had already been seen through by Bibi Dong!
"Your Holiness! What exactly is going on? Why can't Xiao Wu leave?" Flender asked with a frown.
"Hmph, a soul beast that has transformed into human form, how could I possibly let her leave?"
As soon as Bibi Dong said this, everyone present was utterly shocked!
Spirit Hall's Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo had already quietly moved closer to Xiao Wu, lest she escape!
"How is that possible? How could Xiao Wu be a soul beast transformed into human form?" Ning Rongrong simply couldn't believe this was true, she had spent so much time with Xiao Wu day and night, yet she had never detected even the slightest aura of a soul beast from her!
At this moment, Ning Fengzhi, who was beside her, patted his daughter's shoulder and said:"I couldn't tell either, but with so many Titled Douluo present right now, there definitely can't be any mistake."
Just now, Bone Douluo and Sword Douluo had already secretly sent Ning Fengzhi voice transmissions, telling him about this matter, and telling him not to meddle, lest he come into conflict with Spirit Hall.
So Ning Fengzhi immediately came over to comfort his daughter, otherwise if Ning Rongrong impulsively offended Spirit Hall because of her personal feelings, then things would become difficult to handle!
Flender and the others were also utterly horrified upon hearing this news, they knew that with something this serious, Spirit Hall absolutely wouldn't make a mistake!
What's more, even Bibi Dong, the Pope herself, had spoken, which meant Xiao Wu had to be a soul beast transformed into a human!
"If I'm not mistaken, you're that fish that slipped through the net back then, aren't you?" Bibi Dong asked Xiao Wu with a cold smile.
"Hehe, you're right, I am that fish that slipped through the net!"
Xiao Wu's eyes were filled entirely with the flames of vengeance, back then it was Bibi Dong who had led people to kill Xiao Wu's entire family!
"Hehe, searching everywhere to no avail, only to find it without any effort at all! I never expected you to actually deliver yourself right to my doorstep!"
Bibi Dong sneered, she lightly waved her hand, and Spirit Hall's experts immediately stepped forward and surrounded Xiao Wu!
At this moment, Rosen suddenly stepped forward and said:"Regardless of whether Xiao Wu is human or not, her current identity is still a student of Shrek Academy! I don't care if Spirit Hall hunts soul beasts, but harming my classmate is out of the question!"
Rosen's words instantly made Bibi Dong feel that she had lost face, because this Continental Advanced Academy Soul Master Tournament had been convened by Spirit Hall, if Xiao Wu's identity was recognized as a student of Shrek Academy, then she couldn't capture Xiao Wu right now, at least not openly!
But once Xiao Wu was allowed to leave, it would probably be very difficult to catch her again in the future! How could Bibi Dong give up such a good opportunity!
So Bibi Dong said coldly:"No matter how glib your tongue is, it cannot change the fact that she is a soul beast! What are you all standing around for! Take down this soul beast immediately!"
Bibi Dong was very clever, she only mentioned Xiao Wu's identity as a soul beast, and didn't mention her identity as a student of Shrek Academy at all, that way others wouldn't feel there was anything wrong with what she was doing!
"Who dares!"
At this moment, Flender and Liu Erlong both stepped forward, the moment Rosen said that regardless of whether Xiao Wu was a soul beast or not, she was still a student of Shrek Academy, they had already made up their minds to protect Xiao Wu even at the cost of their lives!
"Hehe, do you really think your academy is invincible under heaven just because you became champions? Mere Soul Sages actually dare to act arrogantly in front of this Pope! Since you're courting death! I'll grant your wish!"
Bibi Dong just happened to lack an excuse to eliminate Shrek Academy, and upon hearing this, she now had the perfect justification to make a move against Shrek Academy!
Yu Xiaogang looked somewhat hesitant upon seeing this scene, but in the end he still stepped forward, because he was also someone who cared about saving face, and for the sake of face he couldn't back down either!
"How could the Golden Iron Triangle be missing me? I'm also a teacher at Shrek Academy!"
Yu Xiaogang had enjoyed glory in his life, and had also suffered failure, when he was young Liu Erlong and Bibi Dong had both been infatuated with him, unfortunately his martial soul mutated, and in the end he became a laughingstock.
If he died at the hands of Spirit Hall this time, it could count as his final moment of glory before death! He wouldn't be losing out even if he died!
Flender and Liu Erlong both looked at Yu Xiaogang approvingly.
Although ever since Flender and Liu Erlong got married, Yu Xiaogang hadn't been as close to them, they still regarded Yu Xiaogang as a friend, and for him to step forward at a time like this already made them very happy!
Tang San saw that even his revered teacher Yu Xiaogang had stepped forward, if he still didn't step forward at this moment, it would be rather unacceptable! After all, he was always saying that the person he loved most was Xiao Wu, backing down at a time like this would be far too humiliating!
"Xiao Wu! Don't be afraid! I won't let these people take you away! Unless they step over my corpse!" Tang San said with a solemn expression.
"Enough, don't make it sound like you're heroically sacrificing yourself, things haven't reached that point yet!" Rosen rolled his eyes at him, thinking that this guy really knew how to put on an act!
"Rosen! What kind of sarcastic remarks are you making! Could it be that you want Xiao Wu to be taken away! No matter who comes today, I won't let them take Xiao Wu away!" Tang San roared passionately.
Rosen couldn't be bothered wasting words with this guy, and directly lit up his third soul ring, then swallowed the Face Fruit in one bite!
"Everyone, let's just let today's matter end here! Please do me a favor and give me some face!"
Rosen's voice wasn't loud, but every single person present heard him very clearly!
At this moment, Bibi Dong seemed as though she had fallen under a spell, after standing stunned for a long while, she subconsciously nodded and said:"Fine! I'll give you this face! Let them go!"
As soon as these words came out, the entire crowd erupted, who could have imagined that Pope Bibi Dong would actually give Rosen face! This was simply too unbelievable!
"Just what is Rosen's identity? Why would even the Pope give him face?"
"No idea, anyway this guy must be incredibly powerful!"
"I could already tell in the arena before that Rosen was anything but simple! Otherwise how could he possibly win every match in such a bizarre way!"
"Those weren't bizarre wins! He simply has that kind of strength! Before absolute strength, any flashy soul skills are useless!"
"Rosen is so handsome! Rosen has such charisma! I love him so much!"
"Who wouldn't like such a handsome and powerful hunk! I love Rosen too!"
...
The spectators present discussed animatedly, at most they were just there to enjoy the spectacle, but the group of experts in the VIP seats were utterly horrified, simply unable to believe this was real!
One had to know that Bibi Dong was known as the most talented Pope in the history of Spirit Hall!
Moreover, Spirit Hall was immensely powerful, and Bibi Dong was decisive and ruthless, she had absolutely no need to give anyone face!
Yet Bibi Dong had truly given Rosen face, no matter how one looked at it, it felt utterly inconceivable!
Even the upper echelons within Spirit Hall found this utterly inconceivable! How could the ever aloof,cold and merciless Pope suddenly start showing consideration for personal feelings?
