Correct answer: Option One.

When the Live Stream Room announced the answer, it was not just the onlookers who were dumbfounded. Even Tang Hao himself, the person involved, was stunned.

"Impossible! How could it be Option One?!"

Tang Hao refused to believe it. His previously drunken demeanor turned crazed at that moment! The aura that abruptly erupted from him even shook several cracks into the surrounding houses.

"Impossible! How could it be Option One?!"

"I absolutely refuse to believe it!"

Tang Yuehua, who had just been stripped of her innate domain, Noble Circle, voiced the same doubts. At that moment, she could not even spare a thought for the headache caused by having her domain forcibly removed, and shouted without any trace of grace or etiquette.

The correct answer was simply too damaging to one's mentality.

Tang Yuehua could have accepted any answer from Options Two, Three, or Four. Yet the correct answer had to be the most outrageous one. How could her second brother be such trash—bullying the weak with his strength, only to have his arms and legs severed by their parent?

Impossible. Absolutely impossible!

Emotionally, Tang Yuehua did not want to believe it.

Rationally, she refused to believe it too!

The answerer has raised vehement doubts. The full circumstances will now be played directly!

In response to Tang Yuehua's doubts, the Live Stream Room gave its answer.

But that answer instantly sobered Tang Yuehua up. She hurriedly tried to stop it. "No need! I believe it! Don't play it!!! Please, don't!!!" Her expression was terrified, and her voice even cracked from panic.

However, the Live Stream Room ignored her and began playing the video anyway.

"It's over..."

Tang Yuehua collapsed onto the ground as though all strength had left her body. She knew that once the full circumstances behind this matter were shown, her second brother's reputation would be utterly ruined.

Bullying the weak with his strength, only to have his arms and legs severed by their parent—this was never anything glorious. On the contrary, it was incredibly humiliating!

If she had been more rational just now, she would never have questioned the Live Stream Room's fairness. Nor would she have demanded that it show the events behind the question.

If there had been no video, this matter would have passed just like that. After all, words alone were no proof. Even if everyone knew the answer was true, without seeing it with their own eyes, it would still lack a sense of reality. As a result, the impact would not have been too great.

But now, once the Live Stream Room played the video, the entire world would witness the full process of Clear Sky Douluo bullying the weak, only to have his arms and legs severed.

His face would be completely lost!

It might even drag down the Clear Sky Sect, which had sealed itself away from the world, and strip it of what little dignity it had left.

The kind of disgrace that could never be recovered.

Soon, the Live Stream Room's video blurred, then gradually became clear again.

The first shot was a distant view. The words "Suotuo City" stood atop towering city walls. Then the scene shifted to a massive building nearly a hundred meters tall.

Many people in the Live Stream Room recognized the building.

Huh, isn't that the Soto Grand Soul Arena?

What did Clear Sky Douluo having his arms and legs severed have to do with that place?

I can't figure it out...

Forget it, let's keep watching.

In the video, the Soto Grand Soul Arena was oval in shape and stood one hundred and twenty meters tall. Inside, it contained one main Soul Arena and twenty-four sub-arenas, capable of accommodating sixty thousand spectators at once.

Soon, the scene shifted again.

It arrived at a Soul Arena platform.

At that moment, the host on the platform was announcing the match between the Soul Master teams. "...Soul Elder two-on-two, Match Eight. Li Mao Combination versus Three Five Combination. Please have both teams take the stage!"

As the host's voice fell,

the Soul Masters about to fight each walked onto the platform.

The team on the left consisted of a boy and a girl.

The boy had short black hair and an ordinary-looking face. The girl was lovely and pretty, with a playful, adorable appearance. Her long hair was tied in a scorpion-tail braid, and she wore a pink dress. The Live Stream Room thoughtfully added subtitles beneath the pair: Three Five Combination.

The team on the right consisted of two girls.

One girl was tall, and her beauty needed no description. Her smooth black hair draped casually over her shoulders, her skin was fair, and not only was she tall, her figure was exceptionally voluptuous. Yet in stark contrast, her expression exuded an aloof air, a chill that came from the depths of her heart.

The other girl had coffee-colored hair and wore a gorgeous dress. A faint smile graced her fair, delicate face. With such an elegant and gentle bearing, she was clearly a young lady from a distinguished family.

Both teams looked quite young.

Am I seeing this right? A Soul Arena match between two Soul Elder teams? Such young Soul Elders?!

Maybe they only look young?

True. Even if there really were rare geniuses, how could four of them happen to end up fighting on the same Soul Arena platform?

Let's keep watching. The answer should be revealed soon...

The Live Stream Room's comments flew across the screen.

Yet in reality, many people were far less calm when they saw the two teams appearing on the screen.

Especially the people involved in the video.

"That's me, and Xiao Wu!" Tang San, who had just finished crafting Hidden Weapons, looked at the two teams about to fight on the Soul Arena platform in the Future Video displayed by the Live Stream Room. His expression was somewhat stunned.

Suddenly, he remembered Tang Hao, the Clear Sky Douluo mentioned in the earlier question!

He had initially thought it was merely someone with the same name. But now that his own image had appeared in the video, it was obvious that this was far more than a coincidence of names.

Could his father be that Clear Sky Douluo, Tang Hao?!

"That's me, and Third Brother?" Xiao Wu was also watching the video, but being love-struck, she did not think too deeply about it. She had not connected Tang San with Clear Sky Douluo yet, and merely found it strange that she had appeared in a Future Video. Otherwise, if she realized that her Third Brother was the son of Clear Sky Douluo, a Titled Douluo, it would be difficult not to make certain connections. For example, that the father and son had planned it all along, deliberately keeping her, a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, alive so they could kill her and take her ring...

"Is that the future me?!" Zhu Zhuqing was also watching the video. She could tell that compared with her current self, the Zhu Zhuqing in the video was much more mature. She wondered what point in the future this video was showing.

"Who is the other person partnered with me? It looks like the two of us have a pretty good relationship." Zhu Zhuqing looked at Ning Rongrong standing beside her in the video and thought curiously.

"So this young lady has made an appearance too." Ning Rongrong was likewise surprised to find herself as one of the video's main characters, then continued watching with great interest.
