The continent's number one Tool Martial Soul? Cloud-Soaring Ambition Wind-Following Sword Art!

"Brilliant was the battle-soul hammer, towering was the Clear Sky Sect..."

Qian Daoliu gazed at Clear Sky Peak ahead, which seemed impossibly tall, and a trace of reminiscence flashed in his eyes.

In his youth, he had considered himself the greatest genius of the younger generation on Douluo Continent, until he met Tang Chen, the rival of his lifetime.

They had fought many battles, but each had won and lost in turn, and neither could claim superiority.

Yet it was precisely because of this that Qian Daoliu and Tang Chen had become old friends who held each other in high regard.

The two had traveled to Sea God Island together, where they met the equally brilliant Bo Saixi and both fell in love with her.

But in the end, Bo Saixi chose Tang Chen, while Qian Daoliu lost to Tang Chen by half a move in their decisive battle and swore never to set foot in the Clear Sky Sect.

Later, Tang Chen went missing while seeking a godhood that would grant him eternal life.

Qian Daoliu, meanwhile, had lost his son and granddaughter one after the other, leaving him as the sole survivor of the Angel lineage.

"Although I won't go up to the Clear Sky Sect, I can make them come down."

A powerful fluctuation of Soul Power, belonging to a level ninety-nine Peerless Douluo, suddenly burst from Qian Daoliu.

Golden Angel Holy Light illuminated every dark corner, like a sun walking upon the earth!

Sure enough, before long, several figures leaped swiftly down from the Clear Sky Sect.

The middle-aged man at their head wore a coarse gray robe. He was tall, with rugged features that looked as though they had been carved with a blade and chiseled with an axe.

His eyes shone as he looked toward Qian Daoliu.

Sensing the Soul Power fluctuation, which seemed placid yet was unfathomably deep, the middle-aged man's eyes flashed with shock.

"This junior is Tang Xiao, sect master of the Clear Sky Sect. Greetings, seniors!"

"May I ask why you seniors have come to the Clear Sky Sect? Is there something you need?"

Qian Daoliu studied Tang Xiao's face and sighed softly.

"You look so much like him. Seeing you is like seeing Tang Chen back then."

At the mention of Tang Chen's name, the shock on Tang Xiao's face deepened.

Tang Chen was his grandfather, as well as the sect master who had brought the Clear Sky Sect to its full glory.

He had never expected the man before him to know his grandfather. Then could he be...

"I am Qian Daoliu. Today, I have brought the elders of Spirit Hall to call the Clear Sky Sect to account!"

"Tang Hao and his son Tang San of the Clear Sky Sect destroyed my Spirit Hall's legacy and ended my Qian Family's line!"

"If you cannot give me a satisfactory answer, I will destroy the whole of Clear Sky Peak today, and the Clear Sky Sect will cease to exist!"

At Qian Daoliu's words, whether it was Sect Master Tang Xiao or the elders following behind him,

Cold sweat began streaming down all their backs.

They had long guessed that once Tang Hao's name appeared, Spirit Hall would surely come to call them to account!

But the Clear Sky Sect had never imagined that the one who came would be Angel Douluo Qian Daoliu, who had long since withdrawn from the Soul Master World and whose fame rivaled Tang Chen's!

Although the current Clear Sky Sect had quite a few Titled Douluo, Tang Xiao included,

Judging by the Soul Power fluctuations emanating from the Spirit Hall elders before them, any two of them could probably slaughter the entire Clear Sky Sect.

And if Qian Daoliu made a move, even Clear Sky Peak itself would be shattered. Then the Clear Sky Sect truly would cease to exist!

"Senior, what happened in the Sky Screen took place in a parallel world. How can it be used to pass judgment in our world?"

Tang Xiao looked somewhat terrified as he hurriedly argued.

"Besides, my Clear Sky Sect has inherited the Clear Sky Hammer, the continent's number one Tool Martial Soul, and is bound together with the other two Upper Three Sects."

"If Spirit Hall destroys my Clear Sky Sect over a few rumors from the Sky Screen, won't that stir discontent in the Soul Master World?"

Just then, the presence of two clashing sword intents came from the Sky Screen.

Qian Daoliu looked toward the Sky Screen, the faintest hint of a smile on his face.

"In that case, let's all watch this battle in the Sky Screen!"

"The continent's number one Tool Martial Soul? I'm afraid your Clear Sky Sect has no claim to that title!"

"Go, brother!"

"Go, Brother Xiao Bai!"

"Go, Lin Bai!"

Qian Renxue, Huo Yutong, Ju Zi, and Keke were all cheering for Lin Bai as he stepped onto the arena.

Meng Hongchen, sitting in the stands, was also waving the glow stick in her hand and cheering Lin Bai on.

And Meng Hongchen was cheering for Lin Bai. Who in the entire Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy didn't know that she was the precious little princess whom Jing Hongchen, master of the Illustrious Virtue Hall, cherished in the palm of his hand?

Whatever Her Highness the princess did, they would just follow along, right?

They couldn't very well turn the table while the boss was reaching for food, or refuse a drink when the boss proposed a toast, could they?

Did they still want to enter the Illustrious Virtue Hall for further study after graduation or not?

What if they were expelled tomorrow simply for stepping through the school gate with their left foot first?

Good heavens, their career prospects were at stake!

And so, everyone in the stands was now cosplaying as Lin Bai's fanboys and fangirls, their cheers shaking the heavens.

By contrast, on Ji Juechen's side, only a scattered few were cheering him on.

"I never thought I'd gain so many fans on my first day at school."

Listening to the thunderous roar around him, Lin Bai couldn't help smiling as he spoke to Ji Juechen.

"Hmph, useless things!"

"Only the sword in my hand can enter my heart!"

Ji Juechen shook his head lightly, then held his meteoric iron sword across his chest.

"Ji Juechen, fifth year at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy. Please enlighten me!"

Lin Bai smiled, standing with his feet neither quite together nor apart, the Ruthless Sword in his hand pointing diagonally at the ground.

"Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy... I haven't finished my enrollment yet. Lin Bai, please enlighten me!"

"Whoosh!"

The sword intent around Ji Juechen seemed to solidify as it rushed toward Lin Bai in an instant.

What he did best was suppress his enemies with his own sword intent. In the future, he would even comprehend an advanced technique like the Sword Dao Domain.

But now, facing Lin Bai, who also possessed powerful sword intent, the move was not nearly as effective!

What none of the spectators had expected was that, when Lin Bai raised the Ruthless Sword at an angle,

His entire bearing suddenly changed!

A slaughterous sword intent of corpse mountains and blood seas enveloped him. The Ruthless Sword, black as ink, seemed to become a black ribbon as it swept toward Ji Juechen.

"So fast!"

Ji Juechen's eyes narrowed, and he hurriedly blocked Lin Bai's strike with his meteoric iron sword.

As the two swords met, he was astonished to discover that Lin Bai's strength was not much weaker than his own as a Soul Ancestor.

The next instant, Lin Bai used the recoil from the colliding swords to twist his body sharply.

His sword flashed like black lightning, thrusting straight for Ji Juechen's throat!

Ji Juechen swung his sword to block, and Lin Bai used the momentum to strike again!

Each strike was faster than the last, and every one seemed to carry the sound of wind and thunder!

Ji Juechen's sword had never excelled in speed. Now, faced with Lin Bai's swift strikes, which fell like wind and rain filling the sky, he was forced back step after step.

Meanwhile, in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Chen Xin was watching the Sky Screen, his eyes nearly popping out of his head.

"This... This is?"

"My Chen Clan's... Cloud-Soaring Ambition Wind-Following Sword Art?"
