Douluo Continent: Now that everyone's been reborn, who's still going to be a simp?

For the past six months, Yan has been secretly studying the knowledge of flowers and plants, without telling Xie Yue and Hu Liena.

Hu Liena found it incredible.

"What do you want with Elder Ju?"

"Of course there's something wrong."

Yan's tone was somewhat indifferent, indicating he didn't want to say anything more to Hu Liena.

Although Hu Liena was somewhat dissatisfied with Yan's answer, she understood that everyone has their own space and secrets, so she did not press the matter further.

She tried her best to appear indifferent to Yan's affairs.

Xie Yue then asked:

"Did Teacher Lin want to see you about something special? Did he tell you about the next phase of the training plan?"

Yan nodded slightly.

"Our next training phase is to go to the Great Soul Arena to participate in the Soul Fighting Competition."

"A spirit battle competition?"

"is that true?!"

Xie Yue and Hu Liena asked one after the other, both with expressions of disbelief on their faces.

The Great Soul Arena is the true battlefield where Soul Masters compete, and it's a place they've always longed for.

This news was undoubtedly a huge surprise for them.

The brother and sister smiled at each other, their eyes sparkling with excitement.

"Yes, that's what Teacher Lin said."

Yan gave an affirmative answer.

"However, according to Teacher Lin's plan, the three of us will have to split up this time and go to different Great Soul Arenas for training. My destination has been decided, which is the Tox Great Soul Arena east of Heaven Dou City."

Xie Yue was somewhat puzzled.

Why there? Is there anything special about it?

"There is indeed something special about that place. It's close to Tianshui City, and you'll encounter many powerful water-attribute soul masters."

"I see."

The brother and sister immediately understood Lin Zhendong's intention.

"Alright, it's getting late. You two should get some rest. We should have a result about this tomorrow."

"Well, you should also go to bed early."

After returning to his room, Yan cultivated for an hour, then carefully perused the "Record of Rare Flowers and Herbs" before finally going to sleep.

The next morning, Yan, Xie Yue, Hu Liena were training with four other teammates when Teacher Liu Can came over.

"Xie Yue, Yan, and Nana, the three of you go to the Papal Palace."

Hearing this, all three of them became somewhat excited.

"Teacher Liu, let's go!"

"Well, let's go."

The three quickly left the academy and headed straight for the direction of the Papal Palace.

Everyone was excited and looking forward to the journey.

When they entered the Papal Palace, they found that Elder Ju, Elder Gui, and Teacher Lin Zhendong were already there.

At this moment, Bibi Dong remained seated on the high papal throne, her face calm.

Yan felt that she seemed to have listened to Professor Lin Zhendong's suggestion.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 25 My wish came true, I traveled with Elder Ju.

"See Your Majesty the Pope!"

The three bowed to Bibi Dong.

For the past six months, the three of them have devoted themselves to special training, leaving early and returning late every day, with almost no time for anything else, so they rarely had the opportunity to see Bibi Dong.

"No gift."

A gentle smile appeared on Bibi Dong's face, her tone conveying composure and calmness.

"I heard from Teacher Lin that through persistent special training over the past six months, your combat skills have been significantly improved, and you now have the strength to fight against Soul King-level Soul Masters."

"Your Holiness, this is all thanks to Teacher Lin's excellent teaching."

Xie Yue, representing the three, answered respectfully.

Bibi Dong's gaze swept over the three of them one by one, and then she said:

"Although you have made some progress, don't be complacent. In order to further improve your strength, Teacher Lin suggested taking you to the Great Soul Arena for practical training, and I also think it's a good idea."

Upon hearing this, Yan, Xie Yue, and Hu Liena exchanged smiles, their eyes sparkling with anticipation and excitement.

Bibi Dong keenly noticed the eagerness in the eyes of the three of them.

The three of them were filled with anticipation and longing for the upcoming training journey.

"Teacher Lin also suggested that the three of you be dispersed to different arenas for training, in order to stimulate your competitive spirit. There are no major events in the Spirit Hall recently, so I have decided to have Elders Ju and Gui accompany you to protect you."

After Bibi Dong finished speaking, she looked at the six people in the main hall and then made arrangements.

"Then Elder Ju will be in charge of secretly protecting Nana, while Elder Gui and Xie Yue will accompany her. Teacher Lin, please keep an eye on Yan."

As soon as Bibi Dong finished speaking, Lin Zhendong and Yue Guan both looked at Yan at the same time.

Yan also glanced at Yue Guan beside him.

Bibi Dong noticed something from their body language.

"What? Do you have any objections to this arrangement?"

Yan took a deep breath and mustered her courage to step forward.

“Your Holiness, I request to travel with Elder Ju.”

Yan knew that if he and Lin Zhendong encountered Dugu Bo in Sunset Forest, they would have no chance of winning.

Therefore, we must seize this opportunity and travel with Yue Guan.

Upon hearing Yan's request, Bibi Dong frowned, a hint of displeasure appearing on her face.

"Yan, why do you want Elder Ju to come along?"

"Your Holiness, I am currently learning about flowers and plants from Elder Ju, and I would like to ask Elder Ju to take me to Sunset Forest for a field study."

"Oh?"

Bibi Dong looked at Yan and Yue Guan with some confusion, then calmed down.

Xie Yue and Hu Liena also showed surprised expressions. Only then did they understand Yan's real purpose in going to Yue Guan last night. It turned out that he had such a plan all along.

Seeing this, Yue Guan immediately stepped forward to explain to Yan:

"Your Holiness, this is indeed the case. Yan has been studying flowers and plants for half a year and has made great progress."

"Has it been half a year already?"

Bibi Dong's tone carried a hint of surprise and dissatisfaction.

She clearly hadn't expected Yan to be so interested in studying flowers and plants.

"Yan, you should know what's most important to you right now. There are only two years left until the Soul Master Competition. Don't think that you've already got the victory in the bag."

"I will follow His Holiness the Pope's teachings and strive to improve myself."

At this moment, Lin Zhendong also stood up to speak for Yan:

“Your Holiness, I think it would be a good choice to send Yan to the Tox Great Soul Arena, east of Heaven Dou City, for training. He will encounter many water-attribute soul masters there. It is not far from Sunset Forest, which can satisfy his interest in studying flowers and plants without interfering with his cultivation.”

After hearing Lin Zhendong's words, Bibi Dong closed her eyes slightly and paused for a moment.

She also knew that Yan's soul power was now one level higher than Xie Yue and Hu Liena's, and he had been training hard, seemingly without delaying his strength improvement because of his research on flowers and plants.

She eventually changed her mind and said slowly:

"Teacher Lin, then you will be responsible for protecting Xie Yue in secret."

"As ordered."

Lin Zhendong responded.

"Yan, this time I will grant your request and let Elder Ju accompany you. However, you must not neglect your cultivation because you are engrossed in studying flowers and plants."

"Yes. Thank you for your kindness, Your Holiness."

Yan and Yueguan exchanged a glance, feeling a surge of excitement.

Although there was a minor hiccup, it was ultimately resolved perfectly.
