Douluo Continent: A Review of the Top Ten Martial Souls, Qian Renxue Breaks Through Defenses

Chapter 2: Reactions from All Sides, the Terrifying Strength of Tianxing Academy

In an instant, the entire continent fell into an eerie silence.

Awakening of the Will of the Douluo Continent: A Ranking of the Top 20 Martial Souls?

These changes left everyone at a loss as to what to do.

Wuhun City, the Pope's Palace.

Bibi Dong held the scepter symbolizing the papacy's power, and her body, which had been leaning against the papal chair, unconsciously straightened up.

His chestnut-colored eyes were filled with shock.

"The Martial Soul Ranking is based on the owner's strength, talent, potential, and the degree to which they have developed their Martial Soul."

"Then, I possess twin martial souls, two major domains, the God of Slaughter in the City of Slaughter, the strength of a level 98 Title Douluo, and..."

"The most important Rakshasa God inheritance belongs to me, Bibi Dong, without a doubt!"

Bibi Dong laughed wildly, her laughter filled with madness and excitement.

If what the Heavenly Ranking says is true, then receiving the blessing of the Douluo Continent would definitely allow me to elevate my strength to a terrifying level, and becoming a god on the spot wouldn't be difficult at all.

Tiandou City, Prince's Mansion.

Qian Renxue, who was impersonating Xue Qinghe, had now shed her disguise and looked up at the sky, surrounded by the two Douluo, Serpent Spear and Porcupine.

She had beautiful blonde hair, an absolutely stunning face, and golden eyes unique to the angel family.

"Among the top twenty martial souls on the continent, my Six-Winged Angel martial soul is a god-level martial soul, and it also has innate level 20 soul power. Who on the continent can compare to it?"

"Yes, young master, with your talent, reaching the top of the list is a sure thing. Should we consider leaving the Heavenly Dou Empire?"

"Are you afraid this canopy will expose my identity?"

Qian Renxue frowned. Although Tianmu hadn't said it explicitly, it was better to be safe than sorry.

However, she was still somewhat unwilling to give up after years of lying low.

"No rush, the results haven't been released yet. We'll make plans when the names appear on the list."

"Never mind, let's contact Grandpa first and ask him to send a few of his servants over."

Qian Renxue sighed, then turned her gaze to the Martial Soul Hall branch in Tiandou City.

"Sister, with your arrogance, you're bound to be number one on the Heavenly Ranking. Just wait and see!"

Worship Hall.

Several old men huddled together, looking at the golden list in the sky with deep concern.

"My Lord Angel, please give your most loyal divine servant instructions: is this turn of events a blessing or a curse?"

Unsurprisingly, Qian Daoliu received no reply.

"Big brother, the angel god..."

Qian Daoliu shook his head.

"It seems that we can only rely on ourselves to overcome this crisis."

"The top twenty on the Martial Soul Ranking—well, we old guys can probably get a few of those spots too."

"What about Xue'er..."

The second offering was made to the Golden Crocodile Douluo.

"Wait a minute. Xue'er has her own ideas. Besides, I have left her enough means to protect herself. If necessary, I will go to Tiandou City."

"That's good."

Apart from the two, the other five figures in the Hall of Offerings all looked at the golden list.

"Do you think we old guys can make the list?"

"Scared? The weakest among us is level 96 in soul power. It wouldn't make sense if a few of us didn't go up."

"I wonder what the rewards are. Could it be that they can increase my soul power level?"

"If that's the case, I couldn't be happier. I've been stuck at level 98 for over fifty years, and I'm about to pass away. I have no hope of ever reaching the Peerless Douluo realm in this lifetime."

"If it can really help me advance a level, that would be great."

Golden Crocodile Douluo laughed heartily, his tone showing no greed for the rewards of being on the list.

As a powerful figure among the top five in the Douluo Continent, a level 98 titled Douluo, would he really pin his hopes for advancement on external things?

"Hahaha, Second Brother is indeed Second Brother. Just for his magnanimous spirit, I can't compare." In an instant, the atmosphere in the entire hall became harmonious, as if being listed on the Martial Soul Golden List was nothing special to them.

Blue Lightning Overlord Sect, Sect Council Hall.

Sect Master Yu Yuanzhen sat in the head seat, while several elders, led by Yu Luomian, chatted enthusiastically below the stage.

"Big brother, our Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Martial Soul is the number one beast Martial Soul in the world. Even if we can't get first place on this Martial Soul Golden Ranking, we can still be in the top five."

"Elder, you jest. In this world, besides the Clear Sky Hammer of the Clear Sky Sect, what other martial spirit can rival our Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus?"

"As for that Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, even a Soul Douluo can't break through it, so it's definitely no match for us."

"I think it'll be either first or second!"

The laughter in the council chamber grew even louder, faintly accompanied by the sound of a dragon's roar.

"I'm betting on fifth place this time, I'm betting on a top-two finish, anyone want to follow?"

"I'll bet 10,000 gold soul coins!"

Yu Yuanzhen sat in the head seat, looking at the people below the stage, his brows furrowed with pride.

Yes, the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Martial Soul is recognized as the number one beast Martial Soul on the continent. Even if it can't take the top spot, it's definitely in the top five.

In the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, Ning Fengzhi and Sword Bone Douluo looked up at the sky.

"Uncle Jian, Uncle Gu, you two are both famous Title Douluo on the continent, so there shouldn't be any problem with you being on this list, right?"

Ning Fengzhi smiled slightly. The Seven Kill Sword Martial Soul comes with its own domain and is the number one sword-type Martial Soul in the world.

The Bone Dragon Martial Soul possesses spatial power, making it unpredictable and divine. With their combined strength, making it onto the Golden List is absolutely no problem.

"Although I'm confident I'll make the list, my old bones and I haven't seen Rongrong in a long time."

"Yes, Rongrong went to study at that Tianxing Academy. She only gets two months of vacation a year. I wonder what kind of strength the dean of Tianxing Academy has. Even the three of us working together couldn't withstand a single move from him."

"Don't worry, old swordsman, Rongrong is doing quite well, isn't she?"

“That’s right. Rongrong’s martial soul has evolved into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, and she also has a soul tool and battle armor. When she came home last time, she was already a Soul Master, and she was not even twelve years old.”

"Yes, and the soul power is solid. The second soul ring is a thousand years old, and the fourth soul ring is even more of a ten-thousand-year level."

"Let nature take its course. Rongrong is the hope of our clan."

At Shrek Academy, Tang San stared at the golden list in the sky, his fingertips clenched so tightly they turned white.

It's simply impossible for my Blue Silver Grass martial soul to be on the list.

What about his second martial soul?

"Don't be so nervous, relax."

As they approached, Dai Mubai, Oscar, and Ma Hongjun walked towards them. Currently, Shrek Academy only had the four of them.

"Ah."

Moreover, the Star Luo Empire, the Haotian Sect, the four lower sects, and the Sun and Moon Continent overseas are all discussing the Golden Ranking.

Inside Tianxing Academy, Li Tianyi looked at the gold list and smiled bitterly. It seemed that his strength could no longer be hidden.

"Teacher, do you think we have a chance of making the list?"

Ning Rongrong, being clever and mischievous, fawned over Li Tianyi.

"Of course you can. You guys just don't have much self-confidence."

"Alas, it's a pity that my martial soul is only a dolphin, and it hasn't evolved into a mermaid yet, so I'm afraid I have no hope of making it onto this list."

Shuiyue pouted and, when no one was looking, pecked Li Tianyi on the cheek.

"Moon, you!"

Zhu Zhuqing was dissatisfied, as the current Zhu Zhuqing's personality was much more lively than in the original novel.

"Hehe, Zhuqing, you're too stingy. I just wanted to kiss the teacher for comfort."

"Who's as freakish as you guys? Your martial soul, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, is a super god-level martial soul, as our teacher himself said."

"Bing'er's is also the Extreme Cold Ice Phoenix, Yan Yan's is the Poison Dragon Martial Soul, and there's also Ling Ling, Huo Wu, Xiao Wu, Rong Rong, whose Martial Soul isn't better than mine?"

Just as everyone was fooling around, four more figures walked into the college dormitory area.
