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

Chapter 87 Alliance
"With a top-tier ally like Princess Xue Ke, coupled with the inherent strength of the Heavenly Dou Empire and the possibility of an alliance with the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, the Heavenly Dou Empire's power will likely surpass that of the Star Luo Empire in the future!"

"Wuhun City is probably going to be in trouble. Two goddess ranking experts in succession have fallen out with Wuhun City. The balance of power on this continent is about to tip!"

Discussions surged like a tide across the continent, from the bustling capital to remote towns, from noisy taverns to quiet forests; almost every corner was abuzz with talk of the suddenly rising princess of the Heavenly Dou Empire.

Meanwhile, inside the imperial palace of the Heavenly Dou Empire's capital, jubilation was already in full swing.

Princess Xueke was in her own palace, an extremely elegantly decorated palace adorned with white swan statues and sparkling crystals, with a faint floral fragrance permeating the air.

She wore a light pink princess dress with lifelike white swan patterns embroidered on the hem. Her long, black hair was styled into an elegant updo, adorned with a few round pearls. She looked like a princess from a fairy tale, gentle and charming.

At this moment, Xue Ke was sitting in front of the dressing table, with a maid combing her long hair.

She was preparing for the upcoming royal banquet when she suddenly felt a gentle yet powerful force descend from the sky, enveloping her entire body.

This power is different from Liu Erlong's violent flame power, and also different from Zhu Zhuyun's domineering evolutionary power. It is like spring rain, nourishing things silently, yet carrying a call from the depths of one's bloodline.

When the list information on the screen clearly came into view, Xue Ke's clear eyes widened suddenly, her small mouth opened slightly, and her face was full of disbelief.

"Ranked seventeenth on the Goddess Ranking... Martial Soul evolved into Emerald Swan... Soul Power increased by four levels..."

Xue Ke murmured to herself, her voice trembling slightly, a mixture of surprise and bewilderment.

She never imagined that she would be listed on this mysterious and unpredictable list of goddesses, let alone receive such a generous reward.

Although her White Swan Martial Soul was pure, it was not particularly outstanding in the Heaven Dou Empire's royal family, which was full of powerful figures. Now that it could evolve into the legendary Emerald Swan, it was an incredible stroke of luck!
Just as she was stunned, the gentle silver energy flowed into her meridians like a stream, circulating throughout her body along with her blood.

Unlike the pain and rage experienced by other powerful individuals during their breakthroughs, Xue Ke felt only ultimate comfort and warmth, as if she were soaking in a hot spring, with every pore on her body relaxing.

Her soul power, which was originally at the mid-stage of level 26 Soul Master, began to grow wildly under the nourishment of the silver energy, like seedlings that had been parched for a long time and then received sweet rain.

Peak level 26!
Level 27!
Level 28!
Level 29!
Level 30!
In just a few breaths, Xue Ke's soul power broke through four levels in succession, and steadily remained at the peak of level 30 Soul Master!
The breakthrough in the bottleneck did not bring any obstacles; the silver energy acted as the gentlest catalyst, making her soul power foundation incredibly stable.

At the same time, her martial spirit also began to undergo earth-shattering changes.

The phantom of the pure white swan behind it slowly spread its wings. Under the silver energy, the feathers gradually turned a light emerald green, as if carved from the finest jade, crystal clear and radiating a soft luster.

The phantom's size had increased slightly, its neck had become longer and more graceful, and a bright red crest had grown on its head, like a speck of cinnabar in jade, making it look exceptionally noble.

The emerald swan phantom emitted a clear and melodious cry, a sound like heavenly music that resounded throughout the entire palace.

The chirping contained a pure healing and purifying power, and the flowers, plants, and trees in the palace seemed to be nourished, instantly becoming even greener and more lush.

Some guards and palace maids with hidden injuries felt a surge of relief upon hearing the cry, and their long-standing injuries were miraculously alleviated.

"This is... the power of the Emerald Swan?" Xue Ke felt the surging soul power within her body and the powerful abilities contained in her martial soul, her eyes sparkling with excitement.

She could clearly feel that her martial soul not only retained the pure support abilities of the white swan, but also gained the unique healing and purifying power of the jade swan.

Now, her support soul skills can not only increase the speed and soul power recovery speed of her teammates, but also heal her teammates in battle and purify the toxins and evil energy contained in the enemy's soul skills.

In particular, her breakthrough at level 30 Soul Master granted her the right to comprehend her third Soul Skill.

Information about the third soul skill flooded into his mind like a sudden awakening.

"Jade Healing" can instantly release rich jade-colored healing energy, restoring a large amount of vital energy and soul power to the target, while purifying negative states within the body.

Xue Ke subconsciously activated her third soul skill. The emerald swan phantom behind her flapped its wings, and a rich emerald-colored light shield enveloped her.

She could clearly feel the healing power contained within the light shield constantly nourishing her body, making her soul power, which had become slightly agitated due to her rapid breakthrough, more stable.

"Ke'er! My good daughter!"

A joyful sound came from outside the palace. Emperor Xueye, accompanied by the Empress and several royal elders, strode in, his face full of satisfaction and pride.

The Empress walked quickly to Xue Ke's side, gently took her hand, and looked at her with affection.

"Ke'er, this is wonderful! I never imagined you would make it onto the Goddess Ranking and receive such a generous reward. Your mother is so proud of you!"

Emperor Xueye stepped forward, gently patted Xueke's shoulder, and said in a deep voice.

"As expected of the princess of our Heaven Dou Empire, your martial soul has evolved into an emerald swan, and your soul power has broken through to level 30 Soul Master. This is not only your glory, but also the glory of our entire Heaven Dou Empire!"

The Grand Elder stroked his white beard and smiled, "Your Highness is exceptionally talented and gentle. Now, with the blessing of the ranking list, you are truly a blessing to the Heavenly Dou Empire."

"The healing and purifying power of the Emerald Swan is considered one of the top auxiliary abilities on the continent. With Your Highness in charge, the military strength and overall foundation of our Heavenly Dou Empire will experience a qualitative leap!"

The Second Elder chimed in, "Indeed! Looking across the entire continent, top-tier support Soul Masters are already scarce, and a Martial Soul like the Emerald Swan, which combines support, healing, and purification abilities, is even rarer, appearing only once every thousand years."

"Your Highness, as you grow up, you will surely become the pillar of our Heavenly Dou Empire!"

Xue Ke blushed slightly and bowed, saying, "Father, Mother, and elders, my achievements today are all thanks to your careful guidance and the empire's nurturing."

"From now on, my daughter will definitely work hard in her cultivation, live up to everyone's expectations, and contribute her own strength to the Heaven Dou Empire!"
