The grand and passionate Continental Elite Soul Master Competition ended with a shocking result.
The Blue Tyrant Academy won all their matches.
Since the preliminary rounds, except for the first team of Heaven Dou Royal Academy, all other opponents had surrendered.
An astonishing and brilliant record.
In the stands, Bibi Dong stood up and announced in a calm tone:
"The final winner of the Continental Elite Soul Master Competition—"
"The Heaven Dou Empire's Blue Tyrant Academy."
Except for some cheers from Heaven Dou City, the entire stadium was silent.
No one likes to see outsiders win a championship on their own turf.
At this moment, the cardinal who had just acted as the referee walked out holding a brocade plate.
Seeing the items on it, greedy eyes immediately came from all directions.
Soul bones are known as the rarest treasures on the continent. Even a Title Douluo like Dugu Bo only had one.
But now, three soul bones were neatly placed on this brocade plate.
Bibi Dong slowly walked down from the stands. Wherever she passed, the Spirit Hall's soul masters bowed their heads in greeting.
When she walked in front of Yu Xiaowei, an indescribable aura emanated from her body and pressed down on Yu Xiaowei.
There was a touch of disgust, a hint of seduction, and a trace of surprise.
Stimulated by this peak Douluo-level aura, Yu Xiaowei's Godzilla spirit began to stir again, as if it was about to break free and clash with Bibi Dong's two spirits.
This truly frightened Yu Xiaowei.
If he were to attack Bibi Dong now, even if all four elders of his family united, they would not be able to save his life.
What he didn't know was that not only was he suppressing Godzilla's abnormal reaction, but Bibi Dong was also restraining her desire to attack him.
Although the Death Spider Emperor and Soul Devouring Spider Emperor were originally top-tier insect-type soul beasts, they were still far inferior to the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex, let alone Yu Xiaowei's Godzilla.
However, with Bibi Dong's terrifying soul power, both of her martial spirits had already shown signs of evolving into Titan-level beasts.
So, in facing a yet-to-mature Godzilla, they did not tremble like other beast-type spirits, but were instead eager to compete.
Thus, a strange scene unfolded on the stage.
Bibi Dong held the brocade plate silently, and Yu Xiaowei, who should have been flattered, stared back at her unflinchingly.
Seeing this stalemate, Yu Yuanzhen and Chen Xin quickly stepped forward to protect Yu Xiaowei.
As top powers themselves, they feared that if Bibi Dong couldn't have a top genius, she might choose to destroy him.
Fortunately, this tense standoff only lasted a moment before Bibi Dong spoke.
"You're quite impressive. With successors like you, the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Sect and the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect have a promising future."
"Thank you for your praise, Pope," Yu Xiaowei replied with a fake smile.
Bibi Dong did not mind his lukewarm attitude but turned to look at the students behind him and smiled gently.
"I wonder if any of you are willing to join my Spirit Hall?"
Yu Tianheng and the other sect disciples naturally declined. The three without notable backgrounds—Jing Ling, Huang Yuan, and Jiang Zhu—exchanged glances.
For ordinary people like them, joining Spirit Hall was a tempting prospect.
Moreover, many Lan Ba Academy graduates had chosen to join Spirit Hall.
However, after repeated hesitation, all three of them shook their heads.
Bibi Dong was slightly disappointed but quickly returned to normal and said with a hint of regret:
"What a pity. They are all excellent seedlings."
"With the help of these three soul bones, I hope you all have a bright future and reach the Douluo Palace as soon as possible."
With that, she handed the brocade plate to Yu Xiaowei.
After doing this, she turned and left without any intention of staying.
Under the envious gazes of all the soul masters present, Yu Xiaowei stored the three soul bones in his soul guide and signaled everyone to leave immediately.
After returning to their residence,
Yu Xiaowei immediately summoned everyone, including Liu Erlong and Flender.
At the same time, he also invited Yu Yuanzhen and Chen Xin to stand guard outside.
Once everyone was gathered, he brought out the three soul bones and said seriously:
"Now we face a difficult problem—"
"How do we distribute the soul bones!!!"
"Moreover, there's something quite disgusting I must share with you."
"What Bibi Dong said earlier has placed us in a very dangerous position. Do you want to know why?"
Yu Tianheng and the others were stunned. They didn't see anything wrong with Bibi Dong's words.
So why did Yu Xiaowei say that?
Seeing everyone's confused expressions, Yu Xiaowei began to explain:
First, why did Spirit Hall suddenly change the location of the finals?
The answer was simple: the crowd. There were tens of thousands of soul masters watching today—far more than the number at Heaven Dou's Great Spirit Arena.
As for why Bibi Dong's words were a trap—
It all started when Bibi Dong publicly declared that the three soul bones would be given to them.
She said this in front of Yu Yuanzhen and Chen Xin to make them feel too embarrassed to take them away.
At the same time, the scene was witnessed by tens of thousands of soul masters, so news of the ten-person team possessing three soul bones would quickly spread.
Soul bones are extremely valuable.
Even a soul douluo might risk hunting the children of major clans for one.
Therefore, if there's no clear way to determine who absorbs the bones, anyone alone would be in danger of being hunted.
In short, Spirit Hall wasn't sure of winning, so they used this public method to place them in future danger.
And Bibi Dong's final words: "I hope you can enter the Douluo Palace soon."
People say that Douluo Palace is a symbol of glory—but everyone on the continent knows it's also a place to store funeral urns.
Wasn't that just a veiled curse telling them to die quickly?
Everyone was shaken by Yu Xiaowei's analysis.
Except for Yu Tianheng, Ning Rongrong, and Yu Xiaowei, the direct descendants of major sects, the rest didn't have protection from powerful clan elders.
These dangers could very well fall on students without such backgrounds.
Liu Erlong, hot-tempered as ever, slammed the table.
"Outrageous! Someone dares to covet my students? I'll skin them alive!"
Yu Xiaowei looked helplessly at the broken table.
"Sister, please sit down first."
"We still have time to resolve it before it actually happens."
Hearing the word "resolve," everyone's eyes lit up.
"Is there a good way to deal with this?"
"It's very simple. Just publicly state who gets which soul bone and pin the danger on specific individuals."
Yu Xiaowei laid out the three soul bones and pointed to the head bone in the center.
"I want this head soul bone. Who agrees? Who objects?"
Everyone agreed.
To them, it was natural for Yu Xiaowei to receive the highest-quality soul bone.
Seeing their reaction, he nodded.
"Good, since no one objects."
"Next, my sister is the only fire-attribute soul master here, so the fire-attribute right arm bone should go to her. Any objections?"
Everyone shook their heads—no objections.
A soul bone is most effective when matching one's attribute, so this made sense.
"Now for the third soul bone—the wind-attribute left leg bone."
"It's suitable for agility-type attackers. Among us, there are three: Jing Ling, Zhu Zhuqing, and... my sister-in-law."
"I personally recommend my sister-in-law. She is a soul saint, can fight and escape, and as a daughter-in-law of our Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Sect, anyone who wants to touch her will think twice."
"Jing Ling, Zhu Zhuqing—what do you think?"
Zhu Zhuqing agreed without hesitation.
Jing Ling looked at the soul bone with longing, hesitated, then finally said reluctantly:
"I agree too."
Soul bones are valuable, but life is more important.
Yu Xiaowei nodded and turned to Jing Ling.
"Senior Jing Ling, as compensation, after graduation, you can choose to join either my Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect or the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect."
Hearing this, Jing Ling's face immediately lit up with joy.
After distributing the soul bones, Yu Xiaowei informed Yu Yuanzhen and Chen Xin that he was ready to leave for the Heaven Dou Empire—the sooner, the better.
For some reason, he had always felt uneasy staying in Spirit City.
That feeling had been there from the first day he arrived.
Outsiders might think there are only a dozen Title Douluos on the continent. But excluding those from the top three sects, Spirit Hall alone had about ten.
Yu Xiaowei knew this wasn't the case.
Spirit Hall had at least twenty Title Douluos, including two at level 99, one at level 98, and five at level 96.
Moreover, the Heaven Dou and Star Luo imperial families also had hidden worshipers at Title Douluo level.
Like Black Tiger Douluo, who was killed earlier by Yu Yuanzhen and others.
This sense of crisis made Yu Xiaowei suspect that Qian Daoliu might already be watching him.
If that were true—it was terrifying.
Tang Chen was trapped in Slaughter City, Poseidon guarded Sea God Island and never left the sea.
Qian Daoliu was clearly the strongest man on the continent now.
So that afternoon, right after the competition ended, the Blue Tyrant Academy convoy hurriedly left.
In Spirit Hall:
After listening to Yue Guan's report, Bibi Dong sneered.
"As expected, these damn noble families are all the same."
"The soul bones won by the students were all taken by their own family."
"The clan just turned a blind eye, favoring geniuses while throwing away less talented children."
"Families like this might as well disappear."
She crushed the armrest of her chair in anger.
Yue Guan kept his head down, pretending not to hear the swearing.
That afternoon, internal conflict broke out at Blue Tyrant Academy.
Nine other students, led by Yu Tianheng, stood at the academy gates denouncing Yu Xiaowei.
Strangely, the usually hot-tempered Yu Xiaowei never showed up.
Soon, the dean personally knocked them all out, tied them up, and threw them into the carriage.
After muttering "Shameful," he hurried away.
According to bystanders,
Yu Tianheng and the others were angry that all three soul bones were given to Yu Xiaowei's family members.
Even Yu Tianheng, a distant cousin, didn't get one.
So they went to confront him at the gates.
There were many witnesses, so now it was well-known that the Blue Tyrant Academy's soul bones were taken by the Yu family.
This news also temporarily discouraged some people from taking action.
Liu Erlong and Flender were both high-level soul saints, and even the "weakest" Yu Xiaowei was the top genius of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Sect—always protected by saints and even Title Douluo.
No one dared to touch them lightly.
The Blue Tyrant convoy sped toward Heaven Dou City.
Yu Xiaowei had already absorbed the wisdom-type head soul bone.
As he suspected, once he absorbed it, the six soul bones in his body began to resonate faintly. If he concentrated, he could feel their power increasing.
Only one was missing now—the hardest one to obtain: an external soul bone.
Yu Xiaowei sighed. External soul bones were different from regular ones.
They were harder to get.
To obtain one, you had to absorb a soul ring from a soul beast that naturally dropped an external soul bone.
But to his knowledge, Xiao Wu's soul bone was a right arm; the Blue Bull Python also had a right arm; the Titan Giant Ape had a left arm; the Evil Killer Whale had a left leg; the Deep Sea Devil Whale had a chest bone.
Only the 100,000-year-old Great White Shark Xiao Bai remained—a mystery.
Among the known 100,000-year-old beasts, none had dropped an external soul bone.
So following his current plan, it would be almost impossible to collect a full set of soul bones.
As he frowned, a powerful heartbeat suddenly surged.
His Godzilla martial spirit emerged on its own and began roaring silently.
Yu Yuanzhen's angry shout echoed:
"Who are you, and why are you blocking our way?"
"Hmph."
A cold snort responded.
That terrifying voice echoed between heaven and earth, shocking everyone and making Yu Xiaowei's vision go black.
An overwhelming spiritual pressure caused him to throw open the carriage door in alarm.
He saw an old man dressed in silver-embroidered robes, standing in the path of the convoy.
Beside him stood a beautiful young woman, seemingly in her early twenties, with snowy skin, a sharp nose, narrow phoenix eyes, and a cold yet powerful demeanor.
Yu Yuanzhen and Chen Xin stood guard as if facing a deadly foe. Ning Fengzhi had summoned the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda to reinforce them.
"Number one beast spirit in the world, Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex?"
"Number one offensive power, Sword Douluo Chen Xin?"
Despite facing these three, the old man looked disdainful.
Suddenly, his eyes flashed, and nine terrifying soul rings—yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, black, red—appeared at his feet.
Seeing that dazzling red ring, everyone trembled—even Yu Yuanzhen and Chen Xin.
"Damn!"
"Golden Crocodile Douluo!!!"
Yu Xiaowei's mind buzzed.
The old man blocking their path was Spirit Hall's second worshipper, a level 98 Title Douluo—his spirit was the Golden Crocodile King!!!
And the strange woman beside him…
Was undoubtedly Qian Renxue.
Damn!!!
This crazy woman actually brought out this divine monster to kill him!
