Ye Han stopped overthinking. Making the most of his time to cultivate was the true path. With a Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast willingly sacrificing itself, there might even be a Soul Bone.

Yet while Ye Han and the others were cultivating, they had no idea that most of their information had already been laid before the major powers.

To be honest, Di Tian's roar had indeed fanned the flames, but the biggest reason was that Ye Han had taken out the Piercing Death Thorn Spear and killed a Titled Douluo with a single gesture.

How many years had it been since something like that happened? The last person to fight above their level was Tang Hao. At level 89, a Soul Douluo, he had fought a Titled Douluo and won. This time was even more outrageous: a level 39 Soul Elder had fought a Titled Douluo—and won.

Spirit Hall had suffered the worst in this matter. They had lost a Titled Douluo and several Soul Saints, only to gain nothing in the end.

"Have you investigated Ye Han and the force behind him?" Bibi Dong asked calmly, her voice somewhat cold.

Ghost Charm hurried forward and presented the intelligence report. He did not dare say a word, merely waiting for Bibi Dong to read it.

Bang!

"Those useless fools in charge of Gemstone Village!" Bibi Dong's expression was truly ugly. Ye Han's report read: "Waste Martial Soul key, Innate Full Soul Power! Not reported!"

Bibi Dong suddenly recalled the earlier report from Holy Soul Village. There had also been someone with Blue Silver Grass and Innate Full Soul Power. Could he be as monstrous as Ye Han?

"Explain the situation this time, along with everything else you know! Reading this report makes me want to kill someone!" Bibi Dong threw the report onto the floor and said unhappily.

"Yes, Your Majesty the Pope. The intelligence contains very little about Ye Han's background. We only know that he was an orphan adopted by Gemstone Village, then recruited into Second Dimension Academy by a Titled Douluo named Zhao Lei! After investigation, Second Dimension Academy was found to be located in the Star Dou Great Forest. Its known members include two Titled Douluo, Jade Flute Douluo and Poison Douluo—one at level 97 and the other at level 93. The others are unknown! Furthermore, aside from Ye Han, the academy has only six students, but their origins have not been discovered, and their Martial Souls were not awakened under Spirit Hall! These are records of their battles at the Great Soul Arena!"

Yue Guan picked up a document recording the individuals from the floor and handed it to Bibi Dong again.

Bibi Dong, whose mood had only just calmed somewhat, nearly suffered a brain hemorrhage when she saw the contents. "Their cultivation speed is no less than Ye Han's. It seems these people may all possess Innate Full Soul Power!"

"Yes," Ghost Charm answered cautiously. "Furthermore, according to our investigation, their Martial Souls are not ordinary either!"

"Speak." Bibi Dong took a deep breath and steadied herself.

"Todo Aoi possesses the Body Martial Soul, something seen only once in a thousand years! Ye Han possesses an unknown special Martial Soul, perhaps appearing for the first time! Esdeath possesses a rare elemental Martial Soul! Although Artoria Pendragon's Martial Soul is a sword, her Soul Skills have drawn upon the power of dragons! Honjou Kaede possesses a black great shield Martial Soul, but one of her Soul Skills transforms her into an angel! Yoruichi Shihouin's Martial Soul is a blade, but she has never been seen using it. Her Soul Skills are related to speed! Kurumi Tokisaki possesses a massive golden clock Martial Soul and is suspected of having the ability to turn back time!"

As Ghost Charm dug deeper into the investigation, even he found it unbelievable. Where had they found so many gifted children with such special Martial Souls?

Even Spirit Hall, with all its power and resources, could not find such freaks.

Bibi Dong's expression darkened. Ye Han, who could instantly kill a Titled Douluo, and Kurumi Tokisaki, who could reverse time—those two were the main reasons behind this incident.

"They should participate in this Advanced Soul Master Competition, correct?" Bibi Dong asked coldly.

"Yes!" Yue Guan hurriedly replied.

"Very good! Since it is an academy, there will naturally come a time for graduation. If I recall correctly, the finals this time will be held in Spirit City. With their strength, they will definitely come! Invite them into Spirit Hall when the time comes. Otherwise, kill them all!"

Bibi Dong had thought it through clearly. Ye Han had already become enemies with Spirit Hall. If he could not be recruited, he could not be allowed to continue growing, or there would be endless future trouble.

"You cannot touch this person!" A voice slowly came from outside the main hall. It was the Great Enshrinement, Qian Daoliu. "At least not until you determine his relationship with Di Tian!"

Bibi Dong did not know, but Qian Daoliu knew of Di Tian's existence. The terrifying Black Dragon King was an opponent even he was not certain he could defeat. Especially since there were quite a few Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest.

"You do not need to know the reason. Also, have Spirit Hall's people withdraw from the Star Dou Great Forest for the next three days. Keep things peaceful!" Qian Daoliu left immediately after speaking.

Bibi Dong looked grim, but she had no choice. "Put the plan on hold, but keep a close watch on Ye Han and the others. Also, investigate someone named Tang San!"

With Ye Han having appeared, Bibi Dong kept thinking of Tang San. Since that was the case, she might as well investigate him while she had the chance.

Meanwhile, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect also obtained intelligence regarding Ye Han through its own sources.

"Bastard, this report does show that these youngsters are exceptionally talented, but isn't instantly killing a Titled Douluo too exaggerated?" Bone Douluo still could not believe that Ye Han had killed a Titled Douluo in an instant.

Sword Douluo said with displeasure, "You damned bag of bones, do you think I'm lying to you? Why don't you go find that brat Ye Han and try him yourself?"

"Enough, Uncle Jian, Uncle Bone!" Ning Fengzhi's headache only worsened as he read the report. "Sigh... Uncle Jian, you acted too rashly this time!"

It would have been one thing if Ye Han had no power or influence. Previously, there had only been Jade Flute Douluo, but now there was also Poison Douluo. Aside from their scale, their high-level combat strength already rivaled that of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

Was that really the lineup a high-level Soul Master Academy should have?

"Who knew that brat had such ability? I had originally intended to save their lives and make them owe me a favor. Who knew the kid would kill a Titled Douluo on the spot? He even wanted to kill another one!"

Sword Douluo Chen Xin admitted that he had indeed been tempted at the time, but he had never expected Ye Han to be so fierce. He had killed a Titled Douluo with a wave of his hand and even wanted to kill another.

But how could anyone not be tempted in that situation? Four Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts meant at least four guaranteed Soul Bones, and among those five people, his Soul Power had been the highest.

"Fortunately, you did not make a move, Uncle Jian. There is still room to turn this around!" Ning Fengzhi rubbed his temples, uncertain. "I just wonder what relationship that powerful figure who appeared at the end has with Ye Han!"

"That powerful figure should be a Soul Beast from the Star Dou Great Forest. He referred to us as 'you humans,' but Ye Han risked his life to protect those Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts. They may not have had a relationship before, but they certainly do now!" Sword Douluo Chen Xin's words left Ning Fengzhi silent.

Still, knowing that the other party was a Soul Beast offered some comfort. At least he would not rashly leave the Star Dou Great Forest.

Spirit Hall and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect had many Titled Douluo. Though wary, they were not without the power to resist. But Yu Yuanzhen of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan could not sleep after returning.

One investigation was enough to give him a fright. One academy had two Titled Douluo—more than the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. If those two truly came for revenge, Yu Yuanzhen knew that facing two alone would mean certain death.

Moreover, Yu Yuanzhen could not determine who that final person was or what relationship he had with Ye Han. If he was also Ye Han's elder, then they were in trouble.

Once he died, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan had no worthy successor. They would be finished.

"Go call that brat Yu Tianheng over!" Yu Yuanzhen thought for a long time but could not come up with a good solution.

Yu Tianheng soon arrived in the main hall. This was also the first time he had attended a clan meeting. Yu Yuanzhen, his clan leader, sat in the center, while the elders sat around him.

"May I ask what Grandfather and the elders need from me?" Yu Tianheng asked carefully.

"Ahem! Tianheng, what kind of person do you think Ye Han is?" Yu Yuanzhen's question left Yu Tianheng completely bewildered. The entire clan's upper echelons were gathered here, and they were discussing what kind of person Ye Han was? He did not believe it!

"Well, I really can't say for sure!" Yu Tianheng did not know how to answer for a moment. "I can only say that during the time we spent together, Ye Han may act as though other people's affairs have nothing to do with him, but he is truly good to his friends! He did not hold anything back from me either!"

"What about his enemies?" the Second Elder asked cautiously.

Hearing the Second Elder's tone, Yu Tianheng wore a strange expression, but he continued, "When it comes to enemies, he is ruthless! If he can scheme someone to death, he will never act personally! That kid is wicked!"

Yu Tianheng's words made everyone's hearts tremble. Yu Yuanzhen said irritably, "Got it. You can get lost now!"

Yu Tianheng wanted to say something else, but seeing that his grandfather's expression was off, he knew it was best not to provoke him. He immediately withdrew.

"Clan Leader, this..."

"Next time, I will go to apologize in person!" After holding it in for a long time, Yu Yuanzhen finally said something that made even himself feel miserable. He was the clan leader of one of the Three Upper Sects, and that brat had even cursed the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.

Yet now he had to go apologize. But the other side's strength truly surpassed theirs by quite a bit. As Yu Yuanzhen thought about it, his heart suddenly jolted.

"That brat can even kill a Titled Douluo. Could he really foresee the future? No, no, I must be overthinking it. Foreseeing the future must come at a price. How could it be so easy?" Yu Yuanzhen frantically comforted himself, but the unease in his heart only grew stronger.
