At the border between the Heaven Dou Empire and Star Luo, Spirit City, which belonged to Spirit Hall, was exceptionally lively today.

The Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Competition had officially come to an end today.

At this moment, atop the high platform before Spirit Hall, the Pope and all the Titled Douluo rose to their feet.

Bibi Dong's expression was calm. Wearing the Papal Crown that represented supreme authority, she parted her red lips.

"The Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Competition's final champion this year is Shrek Academy. Congratulations to you all."

In the center of the enormous martial arena below the stands, the seven members of the Shrek Seven Devils stood in a row.

Behind them stood Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang, Flender, Liu Erlong, and Poison DouluoDugu Bo.

As if by prior agreement, after Bibi Dong announced the result, uncontrollable joy and smiles appeared on all their faces.

Because apart from fame and a substantial prize, the champions of this competition would receive an especially generous and tempting special reward.

The three Spirit Bones that had originally been reserved for Spirit Hall's team had now all fallen into their hands.

However, just as the seven from Shrek were pushing the Spirit Bones back and forth as they decided how to distribute them,

no one noticed that Bibi Dong, standing atop the platform, silently watched everything with a faint curve on her lips as well.

"Since the rewards have been distributed, I hereby announce that this competition has concluded successfully."

Upon hearing this, all the spectators, willing or not, quietly began to applaud.

Just as the Shrek group basked in the applause and prepared to make their perfect exit,

Bibi Dong's next words instantly brought every sound in the arena to a halt.

"Now, Elders Ghost Douluo and Chrysanthemum Douluo, seize that girl."

As she spoke, Bibi Dong raised her hand and pointed directly at Xiao Wu among the crowd below.

In an instant, everyone was shocked.

Tang San in particular seemed to know something. His face turned livid, and almost instinctively, he stepped sideways to shield Xiao Wu.

Once the Shrek Seven Devils recovered, though they had no idea what was happening, they all hurried forward as well.

Shock filled the Grandmaster's face. With one hand, he pulled out the Elder Token Bibi Dong had personally given him years ago and roared angrily.

"Your Holiness, what do you mean by this?"

"I am still an elder of Spirit Hall, after all. You cannot just seize my disciple for no reason!"

At the same time, Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect Master Ning Fengzhi swiftly came to his daughter Ning Rongrong's side.

Sword Douluo Chen Xin followed him, stepping before the group and blocking Ghost Douluo and Chrysanthemum Douluo as they attacked.

Bibi Dong frowned slightly. Seeing Yu Xiaogang's furious gaze, her aura eased somewhat as she said in a deep voice,

"If she were merely a student of Shrek Academy, why would I seize her without cause?"

"But if she is a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast that has taken human form, then I have every reason to seize her, or even... kill her on the spot!"

"What did you say? A Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast?!"

With a startled cry, Yu Xiaogang abruptly turned to look at Xiao Wu, his face filled with disbelief.

Bibi Dong ignored Yu Xiaogang and instead looked at Ning Fengzhi, who had stepped forward. Her tone was icy.

"Sect Master Ning, I have already made the reason very clear. Do you still have any doubts?"

"I will give you one final chance. You may leave with your daughter."

"If you continue to interfere, then your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect will become an enemy of Spirit Hall!"

Ning Fengzhi's expression changed at those words. Bibi Dong had made herself exceptionally clear.

Although the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect had deep foundations and was the wealthiest sect, openly becoming enemies with Spirit Hall was something he would never accept.

Moreover, because Qin Shiyuan had led people to sweep through the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well ahead of time,

Ning Rongrong's martial soul had not evolved into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda from the Immortal Herb Tang San had given her in this life.

As a result, there was no great debt of gratitude between the two sides.

Naturally, Ning Fengzhi would not risk his entire sect for Shrek when there was nothing to gain.

Raising a hand to stop Sword Douluo Chen Xin, who wanted to shield him, Ning Fengzhi wisely took Ning Rongrong and left.

Yet among the Shrek Seven Devils, everyone except Tang San still wore expressions of extreme shock.

Xiao Wu, on the other hand, seemed to have silently accepted her fate, her face calm.

Soon, without Sword Douluo Chen Xin blocking them, Ghost Douluo and Chrysanthemum Douluo once again charged toward the group under Bibi Dong's command.

Just as two sharp attacks were about to engulf Xiao Wu and Tang San, who stood before her, a sudden change occurred!

"A chrysanthemum, and a little ghost."

"You two think you can harm my son? Get lost!!!"

A deep voice suddenly rang out from the horizon, exploding through the air and causing the temperature across the arena to rise sharply.

The voice was not loud, but the tyranny and arrogance contained within made every person present tremble involuntarily.

Hearing that voice, Tang San, who was holding Xiao Wu, abruptly looked up, his eyes filled with delighted light.

On the other side, Pope Bibi Dong's expression immediately turned grave.

Two yellow, two purple, four black, one red!

The phantom of her martial soul appeared behind her. Nine Spirit Rings rose and fell around her, showing that she was fully prepared for battle.

Before anyone had time to recover from their shock, something even more terrifying happened the next moment.

With a low boom, Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan and Ghost Douluo Gui Mei,

two mighty Titled Douluo, were sent flying back like cannonballs without the slightest ability to resist.

Both their expressions changed drastically. As Titled Douluo, they knew very well

that anyone capable of repelling their combined attack at the same time possessed unfathomable strength.

When the two looked up, they saw a black figure that had somehow appeared silently in midair.

The newcomer was the level ninety-five Peak Douluo, the Clear Sky Douluo who possessed the continent's number one weapon martial soul—the Clear Sky Hammer, Tang Hao!

"Father!"

"Tang Hao!"

Two voices emerged one after another from Tang San and Bibi Dong.

The instant Tang San saw Tang Hao, he cried out in excitement.

Bibi Dong, meanwhile, glared venomously at Tang Hao in the sky, fire nearly bursting from her eyes.

Tang Hao faced her coldly and without fear. With a flash, he landed before the people of Shrek Academy.

Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo retreated to the Pope's side, and the Soul Power of all three Titled Douluo surged to its peak.

For a moment, the immense pressure from these four forces in the center sent the surrounding Soul Masters scrambling away in panic.

Suddenly, Bibi Dong swept her sleeve, releasing a shrill cry from her hand.

As if answering her call, four shrill cries rang out simultaneously from within Papal Palace.

"Calling for help?"

"Seven Titled Douluo? Hmph! Then I won't hold back!"

Tang Hao stomped fiercely. The next moment, Spirit Rings began rising one after another from beneath his feet.

Yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, black, red!

No one had expected the nine Spirit Rings appearing around Tang Hao to be exactly the same as Bibi Dong's!

"Hahahaha! Xiao San, watch this hammer carefully!"

"Seventh Spirit Ability, Clear Sky True Body!"

Amid Tang Hao's wild laughter, a pitch-black giant hammer in his hand expanded with the wind until it reached a full hundred meters in length.

As his arm swung, the Clear Sky Hammer descended like it was blotting out the heavens and covering the earth, smashing directly toward Spirit Hall behind Bibi Dong and the others.

"Tang Hao! How dare you!"

Bibi Dong flew into a rage. She, Chrysanthemum Douluo, and Ghost Douluo leaped into the air almost simultaneously, rushing to meet the giant hammer overhead.

At the same time, four more figures shot out from Papal Palace like lightning.

A total of seven figures, each bearing nine Spirit Rings, charged together toward the giant hammer in the sky.

"BOOM!!!"

The powerful shockwave instantly swept through the entire Soul Fighting Arena. Apart from the few people Dugu Bo protected in time,

countless nearby spectators fell in waves like dumplings dropping into a pot.

Amid the dust and smoke, the seven figures in the air were smashed down at the same time, while the giant hammer vanished from the sky.

Tang Hao threw back his head and spat out a mouthful of blood, yet his wild laughter did not stop.

"Hahahaha! Bibi Dong, Spirit Hall!"

"Just wait. One day, I will collect every debt you owe me!"

After saying that, Soul Power surged through Tang Hao's body. Just as he prepared to leave with Xiao Wu and Tang San, another sudden change occurred!

"Hehe, Spirit City is truly lively today."

The voice arrived first. Then, a young man wearing a Silver Mask and dressed in white appeared from the horizon, walking through the air.

Behind him stood three mysterious figures completely shrouded in black robes.

"Tsk, tsk. It is not often that ten Titled Douluo gather in one place."

"Everyone, Star-Plucking Tower offers its... greetings..."
