"That's right!"
Facing Snake Lance Douluo's disbelieving gaze, Mo Hui nodded calmly.
Then, under the watchful eyes of Qian Renxue and Snake Lance Douluo, Mo Hui began to dissect the Undying Divine Eagle again.
From the looks of it, he truly didn't care about Qian Renxue and Snake Lance Douluo at all.
"What an arrogant brat!"
Witnessing this scene, Snake Lance Douluo was shocked. He was a Titled Douluo; which ordinary Spirit Master wouldn't be respectful when they saw him? But this brat in front of him not only didn't come forward to salute, he even seemed to ignore him.
"Is this Mo Hui... so bold in private?"
Qian Renxue looked at Mo Hui, a hint of surprise in her eyes. This seemed a little different from Mo Hui's personality when she had seen him the previous few times.
Before, when she saw Mo Hui, although Mo Hui was very proud deep down, he was still very respectful towards powerful individuals. But now, this respect seemed to have diminished greatly.
In fact, it wasn't that Mo Hui's personality had changed, but that Mo Hui's strength had grown stronger.
A year ago, Mo Hui was only at fifty-fourth rank, and his own strength could barely contend with a Spirit Saint. Even with Pidgeot, aside from speed, he was only at the level of an ordinary Spirit Douluo, so he naturally held great respect for ordinary Titled Douluo.
And now, after absorbing his sixth spirit ring, Mo Hui's rank had reached sixty-second, and he had also gained Self-Motivation and Plumage Restoration, two powerful moves. His combat power had increased by more than several times.
Although Mo Hui would likely still be unable to defeat a Titled Douluo in a direct confrontation, he already possessed the qualifications to contend with one or two. If he wanted to leave, the opponent would be even less able to stop him.
Since ordinary Titled Douluo could no longer easily defeat him, Mo Hui's mindset naturally relaxed a lot.
In the words of cultivation novels, ordinary Titled Douluo in Mo Hui's eyes had gradually slipped from the position of senior, stepping half a foot into the position of fellow Daoist.
Respect was naturally still there, but it was far less than before.
Soon, Mo Hui finished dissecting the valuable parts of the Undying Divine Eagle, immediately jumped onto Pidgeot, and prepared to leave the place.
"Wait!"
However, at this moment, a clear, cold voice suddenly sounded, calling out to Mo Hui who was about to leave.
Mo Hui turned his head and saw Qian Renxue walk forward, cupping her hands to Mo Hui and saying, "I've long heard of Brother Mo Hui's great name. Seeing you today, you truly are extraordinary, able to kill a fifty-thousand-year Undying Divine Eagle by yourself."
Mo Hui stood on Pidgeot, quietly watching Qian Renxue, wanting to see what scheme this woman was brewing.
"However..."
After praising Mo Hui, Qian Renxue suddenly changed the subject, saying, "Everyone now calls you the number one genius of the younger generation, but I am not convinced. I wonder if I could ask for some guidance."
Is this... a challenge to me?
Mo Hui was slightly taken aback. He hadn't expected Qian Renxue's ultimate goal to be this.
But on second thought, it wasn't impossible for Qian Renxue to challenge him.
Because after the All-Continent Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournament, he was praised too highly, and Qian Renxue was an extremely proud woman, so how could she let an outsider step on her head?
If she couldn't challenge him for other reasons, then so be it, but now that she had the opportunity to prove herself, Qian Renxue would certainly not give up.
After pondering for a while, Mo Hui shook his head and said, "Let's forget it. Perhaps in the future, we will have a battle, but not now."
This answer clearly surprised Qian Renxue. She had originally thought Mo Hui would definitely accept the challenge, because according to previous intelligence, Mo Hui rarely refused combat invitations from others.
"Is it because of spirit power? Don't worry, I'll only use spirit power of the same rank as you!" Qian Renxue replied, her delicate brows slightly furrowed.
Mo Hui replied, "This isn't because of spirit power rank. It's because I don't see any benefit in fighting you. It would be a waste of time for me, regardless of win or loss."
In fact, if Qian Renxue were alone, Mo Hui would be quite happy to fight her.
After all, Mo Hui was very grateful for Qian Renxue's so-called god-rank Spirit, Seraphim. He could even use this to test Delta Airflow and see how effective it was against a Domain.
But now, Qian Renxue was accompanied by Snake Lance and Porcupinefish, two Titled Douluo. If Mo Hui were to actually defeat Qian Renxue in front of them, the situation would become somewhat delicate.
Although the possibility was small, what if the other party felt he was too much of a threat and attacked? So, he decided against it.
With that, Mo Hui rode Pidgeot, his second and third spirit rings glowing, transforming into a green streak of light, and quickly disappeared into the horizon.
"..."
Qian Renxue looked at Mo Hui's departing figure, wanting to say something but hesitating.
At this moment, Snake Lance Douluo, who was beside her, said to Qian Renxue in shock, "Young Master, did you see that? That Mo Hui has six spirit rings!"
"I saw it. I didn't expect that in less than a year, he would advance from a fifty-fourth rank Spirit King to a Spirit Emperor. Even with the help of a Spirit Bone, this upgrade speed can be said to be unprecedented," Qian Renxue sighed.
She had originally thought of defeating Mo Hui in battle, and then gradually making Mo Hui submit, but he wasn't giving her any chance at all!
At the same time, Qian Renxue also frowned. How could one recruit a person who wasn't interested in beauty and, although he had a need for money, it wasn't a great one?
After thinking for a while, Qian Renxue said to Snake Lance Douluo beside her, "From now on, any news about Mo Hui must be sent to me immediately, especially what he truly likes. You must investigate Mo Hui's true hobbies!"
"Yes! Young Master!"
Snake Lance Douluo quickly responded.
Seeing this, Qian Renxue nodded, and then, together with Snake Lance Douluo, continued to search for the Spirit Beast for her seventh spirit ring.
They couldn't delay too long. After all, Qian Renxue was currently still impersonating Xue Qinghe, and if Xue Qinghe disappeared for too long, it would inevitably arouse suspicion.
On the other side, after leaving the Star Dou Great Forest, Mo Hui and Pidgeot flew directly towards Heaven Dou City.
After seeing Qian Renxue, Mo Hui suddenly remembered that Xue Qinghe, disguised by Qian Renxue to recruit him, had once given him two tokens. One of them was a borrowing token for the Spirit Hall's Heaven Dou City branch library.
And the rank of this borrowing token seemed to be quite high. Even though Mo Hui was now considered knowledgeable, Spirit Hall was, after all, the number one power on the Douluo Continent, so it should still allow Mo Hui to gain something.
The thought of Yu Xiaogang, who had only served as a Spirit Hall librarian for a period of time and whose theories were already impressive enough, filled Mo Hui with anticipation for the books in the Heaven Dou City Spirit branch hall.
Although the Spirit Hall in Heaven Dou City was only a branch hall and not the main Spirit Hall, Heaven Dou City was the capital of one of the two great Empires on the continent, the Heaven Dou Empire, so its collection of books shouldn't be too bad, right?
