Judgment High Priest: Continental Upheaval

Judgment High Priest: Continental Upheaval

The Seventh Light Gate flickered, and a man with long white hair and a medium build walked out. He radiated an air of refinement as he curiously examined his surroundings. When he saw Ling Yuxuan, he dropped to one knee.

"Greetings, Young Master. I am Jing Hongchen. My martial soul is the Three-Legged Golden Toad. I am a Rank 94 control-type Titled Douluo and a ninth-grade Soul Engineer. Please take care of me from now on."

Ling Yuxuan nodded in satisfaction. Another ninth-grade Soul Engineer—and one who would be thoroughly screwed over by Huo Zhongxian ten thousand years later. An enemy of Shrek. This was very nice.

The final Light Gate flickered. By now, Ling Yuxuan felt that whatever came next was fine. Four Limit Douluo and three Soul Engineers—he was already satisfied. As long as this last one was not some bottom-tier Titled Douluo like Dugu Bo, it would be fine.

The Eighth Light Gate shattered directly, and a long spear flew out, its sharp aura seeming capable of tearing through space.

A tall, upright figure stepped out from the shattered Light Gate. He was exceptionally handsome, appearing to be around twenty-seven or twenty-eight. He had a refined temperament and gentle eyes, looking like an ordinary person without any powerful aura.

When Li Ya saw that familiar figure, tears could no longer be restrained as they streamed down her face.

"Greetings, Young Master. I am Yun Ming. Martial soul: Sky Piercing Divine Spear. Title: Sky Piercing. Rank 99 assault-type Titled Douluo. Please take care of me from now on."

Ling Yuxuan's eyes widened. A golden legend! It seemed even the system could not stand it anymore, directly summoning Yun Ming and Li Ya, two sacrifices in Tang Buddha's ten-thousand-year plan, so they could renew their bond!

"Old Yun, I trust you already understand everything?"

A flash of hatred passed through Yun Ming's eyes as he spoke coldly.

"Yes, Young Master. I stood at the summit for hundreds of years, yet in the end, I was merely a chess piece on someone else's board. Young Master, you have given me this chance to start over. This time, I will make that person pay a painful price."

"Old Yun, it is still too early to say that. Please look over there."

Ling Yuxuan pointed in Li Ya's direction.

Yun Ming followed the direction of Ling Yuxuan's finger. The Sky Piercing Divine Spear in his hand fell to the ground as he slowly walked toward Li Ya.

"Little Ya, is it really you?"

Before Yun Ming could react, Li Ya had already thrown herself into his arms.

"It's me. This time, I won't let you leave again."

The two turned and deeply bowed to Ling Yuxuan.

"Thank you, Young Master, for fulfilling our wish."

Long Xiaoyao and Ye Xishui also walked over hand in hand. Both had been revived and summoned by the system after death. Before they died, they had confessed their feelings to one another. Since they had been given another chance, they naturally had to cherish the person before them.

"Thank you, Young Master, for fulfilling our wish."

Ling Yuxuan nodded, his eyes full of blessings for them. Suddenly, he felt someone tug at his hand. Who else could it be but Qian Renxue?

"Xiao Xuan, could these Seniors all be..."

"Mm, Xue'er Sister guessed correctly. They are all people who had died and were ultimately revived by the Judgment God.

Old Yun once lost his life protecting a city, and even after his death, his soul was controlled and exploited by Evil Soul Masters. After Old Yun passed away, Senior Li Ya also eventually lost her life protecting everyone. Old Long and Senior Ye had misunderstandings in the past, but before they died, they had already confessed their feelings to each other. Since they could live another life, they naturally had to cherish the person before them."

Ling Yuxuan told Qian Renxue their stories, leaving out some details and simplifying others.

"Xiao Xuan, do you think we might end up like those Seniors too?"

Before Qian Renxue could finish, Ling Yuxuan had already covered her mouth.

"Xue'er Sister, I will always, always stay by your side. I will not let something like that happen to us."

Ling Yuxuan turned to the others and said, "Everyone, no matter what identities you had before, you are now High Priests of the Judgment Holy Temple. We will change this world. From this day onward, I will hold the chess pieces!"

"Senior Ye Xishui, your Phoenix martial soul does not have any Soul Rings for the time being, correct?"

Ye Xishui nodded.

"Yes, Young Master. Since I lost my previous martial soul, I currently only possess Rank 99 Soul Power. I have yet to attach any Soul Rings."

Ling Yuxuan led everyone outside the hall and pointed in two directions.

"Senior Ye Xishui, that way is Judgment Volcano, while the other direction is Judgment Forest. There are Soul Rings there that your martial soul needs. You can go attach them without worry. I have already informed the soul beasts there in advance. Once you arrive, you only need to accept their sacrifices. As for Spirit Bones, if there are any you lack, simply absorb them. Leave any extras in the main hall. The rest of you may temporarily find somewhere to live in Judgment Land. Our plan has not yet begun. I will notify you Seniors when the time comes."

Ling Yuxuan turned to Qian Renxue.

"Alright, Xue'er Sister, it is time for us to attend the opening ceremony. If we wait any longer, we will be late."

"Mm-hm."

Qian Renxue nodded. Come to think of it, the two of them had not left Judgment Land for around half a year.

Their figures flashed, and they left Judgment Land.

The remaining people nodded to one another as a greeting before setting off to find places to live.

Yun Ming and Li Ya flew hand in hand toward Judgment Forest. That place was relatively quiet and especially suitable for the two of them to live in seclusion.

Long Xiaoyao and Ye Xishui, meanwhile, went to live in the Valley.

Qian Gu Qingfeng preferred darker places. The only place in Judgment Land that met that requirement was Judgment Abyss.

Ximen Kuang went to live at the volcano.

Only Kong Deming and Jing Hongchen were left staring at each other. They had known each other to begin with, so they leisurely went off to find somewhere to live.

The scene shifted to Spirit Hall Academy. It was packed with people, and teachers and students of all ages from across the academy had gathered at the training grounds to watch the annual Ranking Tournament.

Naturally, the three reincarnated individuals had also arrived early.

Hu Liena was still fantasizing about easily claiming first place in the rankings, being accepted as Bibi Dong's disciple, then taking the position of Saintess so she could secretly help her beloved.

Unfortunately, this time she would experience the cruelty of reality.

"His Holiness the Pope has arrived!"

Hearing that the Pope had arrived, Hu Liena thought, So we are finally meeting again? My dear teacher.

Hu Liena eagerly looked up, only to see a tall and handsome man standing quietly there with an Angel Scepter in hand. His long golden hair moved in the wind, and his eyes were filled with majesty.

Hu Liena staggered back two steps in disbelief. Wasn't the former Pope, Qian Xunji, supposed to be dead already? Shouldn't the current Pope be her teacher, Bibi Dong? How could this be?!

Xie Yue and Yan exchanged glances, their eyes equally filled with confusion.

Only then did they realize that this world seemed not to be the one they had originally known. Everything in this world had changed. Would the future change as well?
