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

Chapter 50: Tenth on the Soul Beast Ranking, Another Immortal Herb?

Xiong Jun slammed his fist into the ground, unleashing a burst of extreme power and extreme metal attributes.

A golden shockwave emanated from him, shattering all the ancient trees within a hundred meters and creating a massive crater tens of meters in diameter in the ground.

He felt the power within him almost bursting out of his chest, his eyes flashing with a frenzied fighting spirit.

"Hahaha! Okay! Okay! Okay!"

Xiong Jun laughed three times in a row, each laugh making the air buzz.

"55 years! Ultimate power! Ultimate defense! Plus my Sky-Rending Claw!"

He suddenly looked up, his gaze sweeping over Di Tian and the Demon King beside him, his amber pupils filled with arrogance and provocation.

"Di Tian! Can you still control me now?"

Di Tian's dragon might slightly tightened. Looking at Xiong Jun's surging aura, he raised his eyebrows slightly, but there was no fear in his eyes. Instead, a hint of approval flashed across his face.

"55 years, with dual extreme attributes, your combat power has indeed increased considerably. However, it's still a long way from surpassing me."

The Demon King nodded slightly, his vertical pupils flashing with eerie green light, and his three ultimate attributes swirling around him, forming an invisible barrier.

"Bear Lord, congratulations. Your strength has greatly increased, adding another point to the Star Dou's combat power."

"However, your temperament is still so volatile. You need to master your newfound power as soon as possible, otherwise it may backfire on you."

"Backlash?"

Xiong Jun snorted disdainfully and suddenly swung his right claw. Five golden claw marks appeared out of thin air, accompanied by a sharp whistling sound that tore through space, leaving five deep ravines, each over ten feet deep, on the distant mountain peak.

"The power of my Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear will tear apart all obstacles!"

Gu Yuena looked at Xiong Jun, who was so excited he was almost out of control. A hint of anger flashed in her cold eyes, but there was also a hint of approval.

She gently raised her hand, and a gentle life energy enveloped Xiong Jun, instantly calming the restless energy within him.

"Congratulations, Mr. Xiong."

Gu Yuena's voice was soft yet carried an undeniable authority.

As Xiong Jun felt the restless energy within him being calmed, and upon hearing Gu Yuena's words, a hint of restraint flashed in his amber pupils.

He bowed slightly to Gu Yuena, his voice still deep, but less violent and more respectful.

"Understood, Your Majesty."

He took a deep breath and began to fully refine the newly acquired power within his body.

Ultimate power and ultimate defense, harmonized by the ultimate metal, gradually seeped into his bloodline.

He could clearly feel that every muscle in his body was filled with explosive power, and the defense of his skin and hair had reached an unprecedented level.

In the distance, the Crimson King, Jade Princess, and other ferocious beasts gazed at the chilling aura emanating from the Bear King with eyes full of awe.

With 55 years of cultivation, dual extreme attributes, and the terrifying Sky-Tearing Claw, Xiong Jun's current combat power is probably already very close to the top three in the Star Dou Great Forest.

Meanwhile, as news of Xiong Jun's ranking spread throughout the mainland, various forces were once again thrown into turmoil.

Inside the Papal Palace, Bibi Dong clenched her fists tightly, her nails digging deep into her palms, her eyes filled with disbelief and horror.

"55 years! Another ferocious beast over 50 years old! Just how many monsters are hidden in the Star Dou Great Forest?"

Inside the offering hall, Qian Daoliu gazed at the information on the light screen, a hint of solemnity flashing in his eyes.

"The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear possesses two extreme attributes, and its Sky-Tearing Claw allows it to fight against opponents of higher ranks. If this ferocious beast were to leave the Star Dou Great Forest, perhaps only a Limit Douluo could contend with it."

Inside the Heavenly Dou Empire's imperial palace, Emperor Xue Ye's face was pale, and his body trembled slightly. "A 55-year-old ferocious beast... the strength of the Star Dou Great Forest has exceeded our imagination. If they attack humans, how can we defend ourselves?"

Deep in the sea, the Demon Emperor had just devoured an 80,000-year-old deep-sea serpent and was feeling the growing power within him.

When she saw Xiong Jun's name on the list, the killing intent in her eyes surged instantly, and purplish-black energy surged wildly around her.

"55 years? Dual extreme attributes?"

The Demon Emperor snorted coldly, his voice icy and chilling, "He's nothing but a stupid bear that only knows how to use brute force."

"Just wait, once I surpass one million years, all of you ferocious land beasts will become nourishment for me to devour!"

Inside the pavilion of Tianxing Academy, Li Tianyi looked at the information on the light screen, a faint smile appearing on his lips.

"55 years, dual extreme attributes, that silly bear Xiong Jun is really lucky... This Star Dou Great Forest is getting more and more lively."

Shui Bing'er sat to the side, feeling the domineering aura of the ranking list, her eyes filled with shock.

"Teacher, this Xiong Jun's strength is terrifying! 55 years of cultivation, plus the double extreme attributes he received as a reward..."

"Terrifying?" Li Tianyi smiled faintly, picked up his teacup and took a sip.

"This is just the beginning. The Soul Beast Ranking only goes up to eleventh place; there are even stronger beings ahead of us."

"Bing'er, you must remember that there are far more powerful people on this continent than you can imagine. Only by constantly improving yourself can you gain a foothold in this turmoil."

Shui Bing'er nodded heavily, a resolute glint in her eyes.

"Disciple understands, Master. Disciple will definitely cultivate diligently and live up to Master's expectations!"

Above the sky, the golden light of the Soul Beast Ranking gradually faded, but the shock brought by Xiong Jun's ascension to the ranking spread like ripples across the entire continent.

With 55 years of cultivation, dual extreme attributes, and the terrifying Sky-Tearing Claw... this Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear has become one of the most feared beings on the continent.

On the shore of the Lake of Life in the Star Dou Great Forest, Xiong Jun slowly opened his eyes, his amber pupils flashing with a cold light.

He felt the surging power within him, and a defiant smile curled at the corner of his mouth.

"Who's next? I didn't even make the top ten."

His gaze was fixed on the Soul Beast Ranking in the sky, his eyes filled with anticipation and fighting spirit.

The next moment, the tenth-ranked Soul Beast also appeared on the list.

[Tenth on the Soul Beast Ranking: Ink Jade Divine Bamboo]

【Duration: 510000 years】

[Affiliation: Skywalker Academy]

[Its original form was the Immortal Herb Black Jade Divine Bamboo, which was later nurtured by the Heavenly Path Academy and grew into a 51-year-old ferocious beast. It possesses the ultimate wood and the ultimate metal, making it a plant-type martial soul. It is an unparalleled treasure for weapon martial soul masters to defy fate, and consuming it can grant them the potential to become gods.]

[Reward: 150,000 years of cultivation.]

The golden light in the sky suddenly intensified, and the information about the tenth place on the Soul Beast Ranking was like a thunderclap from the heavens, instantly tearing through the sky of Douluo Continent and fixing all eyes firmly on those dazzling words.

"Skywalker Academy?! It's Skywalker Academy again!"

When the text in the "Affiliated Faction" column came into view, the entire continent fell into a deathly silence, followed by an unprecedented uproar.

Whether it was the ferocious beasts of the Star Dou Great Forest or the human powerhouses of the Papal Palace and the Hall of Worship, they all stared at the sky in disbelief, their eyes filled with shock and helplessness.
