Qi Badao studied very diligently. He knew that Zhou Xu’s words might be overly optimistic, but what he explained was valuable content. The Inner Hall wasn’t about using worms to control them; rather, it hoped they would gain power through improving the worms.

Perhaps influenced by Li Xin, he wouldn’t be swayed by any grandiose beliefs, but the goal of the Hundred Martial Hall was quite practical, offering tangible benefits to enhance himself, in this regard surpassing the Moon God’s Court. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

In the Inner Hall, the four hidden paths are followed. These are essential for the sacred worm to transform into a sacred embryo. The Law Enforcer’s path in the Hundred Martial Hall involves upholding inner justice, and executing justice garners Wish Power. The second way is glory, maintaining the glory of the Hundred Martial Hall. The third is the Divine Favored, the devout followers of the Martial God, who usually have one characteristic—they easily master various weapons. The fourth is spreading the faith of the Martial God.

"Our disciples in the Hundred Martial Hall have special grace from the Martial God. There is no need to limit oneself; the four ways can be implemented simultaneously, and no matter which one is achieved, there will be a good feedback of power. This is the unique gift of the Martial God, unrivaled on the Dao Yuan path!" Zhou Xu said proudly.

"Lord Zhou, doesn’t this mean that our difficulty in completing the transformation is lower than that of followers from other Churches?"

"Correct, executing justice, maintaining glory, firm faith, and spreading the faith of the Martial God can overlap, so our cultivation speed will not be slow. Of course, during cultivation, we will encounter various trials, especially inner demons. Greed and impatience can lead to the emergence of inner demons; this is a process one must undergo." Zhou Xu said, "Falling, that is the enemy of the Hundred Martial Hall. It is a betrayal of the Li Dragon, the Martial God, and our brethren, and every disciple in the Inner Hall should root it out!"

Saying this, Zhou Xu’s expression became extremely stern. The process of gifting the sacred worm varies, but during this process, they observe how the other party responds to unexpected situations. In times of crisis, one’s true character is most visible.

In the new era, there are four universal paths. The followers of the Seven Gods can only choose one path, but they can choose any. The followers of the Martial God are superior to other followers of the Seven Gods, also implying that the true status of the Martial God is above the Seven Gods.

Zhou Xu could see the flame and determination in everyone’s eyes. He was once the same; the Martial God is the true god of the new era, and the faith of the followers can return the Martial God to His rightful status.

Little Skinned might have been scared. Since Li Xin took on this case, no new cases had emerged, leaving Li Xin without new leads. But for Night Patrol, it was a good thing. If Little Skinned disappeared, everyone wanted to see this result; it was best if he always remained out of everyone’s memory.

At the familiar cafe in front of the Divine Revelation Canon Law School, Lu Shuai looked outside, quietly waiting for the arrival of Feili.

Today’s meeting was arranged by Feili. According to past practices, Feili was sure to be a little late, but today she arrived on time.

The winter cold couldn’t overshadow Feili’s charming beauty, and her slightly flushed cheeks made her look even more delicate.

"Cousin, thank you for coming," Feili said with a smile.

Lu Shuai smiled slightly, "What would you like to drink?"

"Coffee, please." This time, Feili did not insist on taking charge but let Lu Shuai order. In the past, Feili ordered and paid the bill, mainly to delineate boundaries with Lu Shuai.

Lu Shuai had long memorized the menu. He had come here many times, but this time he casually ordered two cups.

"Cousin, I was wrong last time. I was at a disadvantage in the competition with Patir and took out my emotions on you. That was my mistake," Feili said sincerely.

Looking at Feili, Lu Shuai sighed inwardly. She must have done a lot of mental preparation to act so naturally.

Lu Shuai smiled slightly, "Blood is thicker than water. I accept your apology, so today’s coffee is on you."

"Okay, cousin." Feili didn’t expect it to be so easy and felt relieved. She had already prepared for Lu Shuai to take advantage of the situation, as he usually did.

"Cousin, would you like to come to the Divine Revelation Canon Law School? I talked to the family, and we could contact the dean." Feili said. This was not her idea but the family’s suggestion. Now Lu Shuai naturally had the qualifications to enter Divine Revelation, and they could do a favor easily, killing several birds with one stone.

Lu Shuai gently shook his head, "No need. I’m quite comfortable on the side of Serenity. It’s the same anywhere, really."

"Cousin, there is a big difference. Serenity’s ceiling is low. Divine Revelation is more suitable for your development. After graduation, with the family’s recommendation, you can quickly gain a seat in the Upper House." Feili threw out the real bait. After this matter, she knew that Lu Shuai was not as weak as she had imagined.

If it were the old Lu Shuai, he would have immediately knelt and thanked her. Becoming a member of the Upper Council was his dream and the Lu family’s dream. But now, accepting the Potter Family’s favor, everything he had would turn into a gift from the Potter Family.

"I still need some time to settle down. If one day I’m qualified, I think I will request the Potter Family’s help." Lu Shuai smiled slightly, without any pretense of poverty nor standing on high ground.

Even though Feili felt a bit regretful, she knew it couldn’t be forced. Other families in the Dragon Capital were now interested in Lu Shuai, and as far as she knew, Lu Shuai had not accepted invitations from anyone recently, only dealing with some grassroots affairs in the North District. She was the first.

"Cousin, I remember you want to organize an event between Serenity Canon Law School and Divine Revelation. How about this weekend? I’ll invite all the excellent female companions from Divine Revelation." Feili said.

"Saturday, then. Our president has been looking forward to it for a long time." Lu Shuai nodded. This was to fulfill a promise to Bai Peng, completing his wish.

"The Bai Family looks strong on the outside but weak on the inside. Although their ancestor is still around, I hear he won’t last long. If Bai Peng can’t become a Preparatory Angel, the Bai Family might face a severe decline," Feili said, implying that following Bai Peng was futile and that one shouldn’t harbor any illusions as the Bai Family couldn’t be a reliable pillar.

"Brother Peng’s ability and potential are indisputable. I think it’s only a matter of time before he becomes a Preparatory Angel," Lu Shuai said, "By the way, invite Patir as well. He is very interested in Brother Li, and it would be good to do it together, so we don’t have to hold two separate events."

At the mention of Patir, Feili’s ears perked up instinctively. She had been very sensitive to this name recently, feeling that any mention was a hint that she was not as good as Patir.

Feili smiled beautifully, "Sure, Patir and I are good sisters. However, if he goes, Hong Ban might cause trouble. You know Hong Ban won’t let Patir participate in such events."
