Douluo Continent: The Eternal Order of the Azure Sky.

No, I want to prove myself!

Beibei clenched her fists.

The scene changes again.

A sheer curtain flutters gently, casting shimmering light and shadow, and a strand of flowing purple hair comes into view.

Since it's all an illusion, then my path to regaining my confidence will begin with you.

He walked toward the gauze curtain.

……

"The first person, his name is Huo Yuhao!" Xu Tianzhen's icy yet melodious voice echoed for a long time.

Huo Yuhao? Is he the shameless scoundrel who cheated in the eight-person team battle of the competition and still stubbornly insisted on Shrek Academy's eternal glory? How could he do such a thing?

The crowd erupted in a frenzy, their discussions boiling over like a torrent.

"I know him! He's the one from Shrek Academy! The one who got suspended!"

"An eight-man team battle! Eight against one! Shameless bastards!"

"I knew it! What wouldn't this kind of person do? He's a beast!"

But there were also dissenting voices, with some people shouting in the crowd.

"Everyone, calm down! Don't believe it! Shrek Academy wouldn't do such a thing! They are the number one academy on the continent! A glory that lasts for ten thousand years!"

"That's right! Huo Yuhao was only after the eternal glory; there was no need for him to participate in terrorist attacks!"

Another person chimed in, their voice filled with urgency.

"This must be a conspiracy by the Sun Moon Empire! They want to frame Shrek Academy!"

A middle-aged man shouted at the top of his lungs, his face flushed red and veins bulging on his forehead.

As the newly gathered crowd was about to split up again, as if in response to their words, Xu Tianzhen's voice suddenly turned cold:

"There will definitely be people who don't believe any of this, but everyone, please look at these images—"

"This person is a true evil spirit master!"

The image on the screen changed again.

That was Huo Yuhao's battle in the underground Soul Master Competition. The Gate of the Dead opened, and liches, a sea of ​​skeletons, death knights, and bone dragons poured out of that eerie gate one after another.

It teares at, devours, and destroys everything that is alive.

Those soul masters were like paper figures before them, torn to pieces in a single exchange, their blood splattered on the ground. Before it could even seep into the soil, it was drained dry by the undead.

The image freezes on the most gruesome moment—

Huo Yuhao stood in front of the Gate of the Dead, raising his hands high and chanting incantations. Then he merged with the Gate of the Dead, becoming even more evil and ferocious.

Opposite me was an angel who looked so delicate and beautiful, radiating golden light, with wings like clouds, as if representing all that is beautiful.

Like a flower struggling in a storm.

Everyone held their breath.

……

Xu Sanshi was completely bewildered.

When he woke up, he found himself not only in Tiandou City, but also as if time had reversed, with everything returning to several years ago.

The Xuanming Sect is still there, Chen Wen is still there, and the streets of Tiandou City are still as bustling as they were in the past, without that annoying Soul Guidance Live Streaming System.

but……

Xu Sanshi sat cross-legged on the bed with his knees wide open. He looked at his delicate, fair hands, then at his beautiful but bewildered face in the mirror. He scratched his purple hair, his confusion deepening.

He could never forget that face, that outfit.

How did I become Nan Nan? Or is it still the Nan Nan from that night?

So, in a little while, will Nan Nan, who is wearing my body, come in?

Xu Sanshi was overwhelmed with mixed feelings.

Just then, Chen Wen's familiar and melodious voice rang out from outside the door:

"Alright, young master, you can go in now. Good luck!"

“Young master, I’ve checked her out for you. That girl is absolutely gorgeous. The head of the family said that if you like her, you can even marry her as your principal wife.”

The small door, which wasn't very big, was pushed open, and in the dim light, a tall figure walked in, gently lifted the gauze curtain, and sat down on the edge of the bed.

The breathing grew heavier, and a hand seemed to reach out.

Xu Sanshi felt the heat, and her delicate body trembled noticeably, instantly tensing up.

Even though everything was so familiar and intuitive, they reacted completely differently.

Hmm, isn't he a bit too big? Was I this tall back then?

He secretly opened his eyes and glanced at the other person.

With just one glance, he froze, his feelings of guilt and anticipation instantly trampled over by a thousand alpacas.

Is this right? This isn't right, is it?

The person who came wasn't the one who took the wrong turn back then; it was Beibei!

And it's a fucking 20-year-old baby named Beibei!!!

Chen Wen, are you blind? Where is my Nannan?

"No!!!!" Xu Sanshi shouted, but his voice was so weak and... gentle at that moment.

The time is still the same time, the place is still the same place, but people and hearts are united at this moment.

We can no longer tell you from me.

Beibei, who is no longer a naive boy, certainly wouldn't go astray.

Beibei, you son of a bitch, don't let me get a chance.

Xu Sanshi felt utterly hopeless.

……

The Gate of the Dead transformed into a gigantic maw, rushing towards Ye Guyi, whose face was filled with despair, and swallowed the pure and beautiful holy angel whole!

"No!" someone exclaimed.

This stark contrast instantly and vividly illustrates the interplay between good and evil, beauty and ugliness, light and wickedness.

The visual impact of that scene evokes a physiological nausea and disgust, and also plunges many people into an unspeakable silence.

Those who had just been defending Shrek fell silent.

Huo Yuhao, this inner court disciple representing the highest level of Shrek Academy, this passionate young man who was fervently devoted to Shrek Academy's eternal glory, was actually, actually, a demonic soul master.

A conversation slowly unfolded amidst such a powerful echo.

"Time's up." It was Huo Yuhao's voice.

Many people have already formed a deep impression of this male voice with a distinctive, somewhat hoarse tone.

"What time?"

A clear male voice rang out, full of righteousness. The voice carried doubt, vigilance, and a hint of unease.

"Elder Xuan—I've done it, ultimate solo combat!" It was Huo Yuhao again, Huo Yuhao, proud and devout.

"Hahahaha!" The classic wicked laugh.

"Watch as Mingdu becomes a hell!"

"You scum, weep your hearts out. This is what I give you—"

"Divine retribution!"

The sound was like a curse, echoing in everyone's ears, and the tragic scenes caused by the recent explosion in Mingdu seemed to begin to appear before everyone's eyes.

This time, beneath each of the deceased souls, there was a clearly visible, hideous face.

His face was contorted, grotesque, and he was laughing wildly, as if admiring his own masterpiece.

And Xu Tianzhen's voice rang out again at that opportune moment:

"And the second person was named Xuanzi."

……

"Think about it carefully, do you really not have a lover or have ever loved anyone?"

A gentle voice echoed in the empty space.

Xuanzi's face flushed red. He stammered a few words but couldn't say anything. Finally, in a fit of anger and embarrassment, he roared:

"How many times have I told you? No way! I'm a virgin!"

"So... is there someone who left a very deep impression on you, someone you can never forget in your life? Would you like to experience what it feels like to fall in love with someone?" Zhong Liyuan coaxed patiently.

Xuanzi felt as if his memories of over two hundred years of life were being rapidly turned like pages of a book.

The yellowed pages were covered with names, some clear, some blurry.

Familiar faces appeared before his eyes, only to be quickly dismissed by him.

No, no, none of those.

And so, it felt like a very long time had passed.

Suddenly, a fleeting glimpse.

"It's a bit difficult, but your situation is special, so we'll do as you wish."

A brilliant golden light seemed to burst forth from the netherworld, rising abruptly from the ground!

Xuanzi subconsciously raised his hand to cover his eyes.

As the golden light faded, a figure shrouded entirely in a black robe emerged. The person appeared extremely thin, but their features were obscured, their face hidden in the shadow of the hood.

Xuanzi stared blankly at the scene, his heart starting to pound uncontrollably.
