Story Role

Xu Feng’s marriage proposal

After Xu Feng demands to speak to Qian Daoliu and tensions rise with Qian Xunji, Qian Daoliu arrives with Golden Crocodile Douluo. He apologizes for Spirit Hall’s discourtesy and invites Xu Feng to discuss the proposal in the Worship Hall 6 7.

Qian Daoliu sees the proposed marriage to Bibi Dong as a chance to gain a young Limit Douluo and join forces with Sea God Island. He also hopes that Spirit Hall’s Angel God inheritance and Xu Feng’s potential might eventually produce two gods 8 9.

Before agreeing, he requires an examination of Xu Feng’s age and foundation and sends people to verify Sea God Island’s existence. After confirming Xu Feng’s cultivation, he leaves him alone with Bibi Dong, then secretly watches their interaction with Qian Xunji and Golden Crocodile Douluo 10 11 12 13.

The elders’ contest

Qian Daoliu arranges for Storm Douluo, Ghost Leopard Douluo, and Demon Bear Douluo to exchange moves with Xu Feng, both to help the elders and to test Xu Feng’s combat ability. When another elder demands that Xu Feng bow and is slammed into a wall, Qian Daoliu revokes the elder’s status and has him expelled 15 17.

Xu Feng defeats the three selected elders while suppressing his cultivation to level 95. Qian Daoliu, who had expected him to lose, praises him as a “true dragon.” He later provides Xu Feng’s agreed reward: a fifty-thousand-year-old Wisdom Skull and ten thousand Gold Soul Coins 18 20 23.

Approval of the alliance

A secret report confirms Sea God Island’s existence and describes another level 99 Limit Douluo and a Sea God inheritance there. The news makes Qian Daoliu more wary of unknown powers, but also strengthens his resolve to accept the alliance. He approves Xu Feng and Bibi Dong’s marriage, and Xu Feng agrees 24.

Afterward, Xu Feng obtains travel and cultivation resources from Qian Daoliu and other Spirit Hall figures 25.
