"Stop."
Li Changsheng withdrew the lightning in his hand, slowly lowered his arm, and looked into the distance.
A beautiful woman and a handsome man were flying over from afar.
Li Changsheng first looked at the woman.
The beautiful woman wore a bright-red robe. Her sea-blue hair fell loosely down her back. Her gentle features made her look no more than thirty years old. Her beauty came more from her bearing—a noble elegance, a warm gentleness, and an aura that carried the breath of the sea. Her eyes were especially striking. Her clear blue eyes were deeper than the ocean, and the vast vicissitudes within them seemed to reflect countless ancient years. She held a golden scepter three meters long. Demonic patterns covered the entire scepter. At its head was a diamond-shaped protrusion resembling a spear, and a diamond-shaped golden gemstone was set five inches below the spear point.
In Li Changsheng's eyes, only Snow Empress and the unseen Silver Dragon King could surpass her in appearance and bearing.
Li Changsheng turned his head again and looked at the handsome man.
The handsome man wore golden armor and had golden-yellow hair. His long golden hair fell behind his head and was combed extremely neatly. His handsome features made him look around thirty years old. His entire body radiated a calm, tranquil aura that made people feel exceptionally comfortable. His golden eyes radiated an aura of judgment, as if they would judge all the world's evil. He held a golden sacred sword. The hilt was crafted in the shape of six wings, while the blade bore an ornate diamond. Its overall design was cool and dazzling, with a striking appearance and perfection in every detail. Seen from afar, it possessed an incomparably sacred air.
"Greetings, friend. I am Bo Saixi, High Elder of Sea God Island," the beautiful woman said gently.
"I am Qian Daoliu, High Elder of Spirit Hall," the handsome man said solemnly.
The two looked at Li Changsheng. Violent lightning aura surrounded him, and the pressure he released stood firmly on par with theirs—indeed, it even surpassed them by a margin.
This man is also an Ultimate Douluo, and his strength is no weaker than ours. The two cried out inwardly in unison.
Li Changsheng replied, "I'm Li Changsheng, merely an ordinary person traveling the world."
Time rewound to fifteen minutes earlier.
Far from Li Changsheng's battlefield, another Spirit Master War had broken out.
The two sides were the Sea Soul Masters of Sea God Island and the land soul masters of Spirit Hall. Although Spirit Hall had many Titled Douluo, most of them were unsuited for fighting at sea. At the beginning of the battle, Spirit Hall's Titled Douluo relied on their numerical advantage to suppress Sea God Island's Titled Douluo for a time. But as the battle dragged on, the Titled Douluo of Sea God Island gradually adapted. The balance of victory slowly tipped toward Sea God Island, and the fight shifted from one-on-one battles to battles where one fought two.
For a time, Spirit Hall suffered heavy casualties. Only a handful of Soul Douluo remained, while fewer than one in ten soul masters below the Soul Douluo rank were still alive. Several Titled Douluo had already fallen.
Seeing this, Qian Daoliu at the rear shook his head and personally entered the battlefield. Soul Power surged through him, and the Angel Soul appeared behind his back. Nine soul rings emerged around him: black, black, black, black, black, black, black, black, red. The strength of a Level 99 Ultimate Douluo erupted instantly, but in the very next moment, several Titled Douluo from Sea God Island sent him flying with their swords. The entire battle situation was instantly reversed, giving Spirit Hall's side a chance to catch its breath.
Seeing this scene, the people of Spirit Hall shouted loudly.
"Long live Spirit Hall! The High Elder will win!"
"Long live Spirit Hall! The High Elder will win!"
"..."
Just as the people of Spirit Hall were immersed in the joy of their impending victory, a powerful surge of Soul Power suddenly erupted from Sea God Island. It caught the numerous Titled Douluo who had been sent flying by Qian Daoliu, and its pressure was no weaker than Qian Daoliu's.
Everyone instantly fell silent and looked toward Sea God Island in unison.
Qian Daoliu also frowned deeply. He could sense that the owner of the Soul Power pressure from before was no weaker than him. Moreover, he felt that it was even more difficult to resist here. He sensed a powerful force—divine power.
Qian Daoliu immediately recalled that he had sensed a familiar aura during the earlier battle. He had not paid it any mind then, but now, with this sudden eruption of Soul Power pressure, he could clearly sense it as the human representative of God of Angels. The other party was a Level 99 Ultimate Douluo just like him, and also a representative of a god. Divine nature existed within both their Soul Power.
At that moment, the people of Sea God Island also shouted in unison.
"The High Elder has arrived!"
"High Elder, keep it up!"
"The High Elder will definitely defend the dignity of Sea God Island!"
"..."
At that moment, a beautiful woman floated out from Sea God Island. Qian Daoliu was instantly captivated by her appearance and bearing, and even Tang Chen, hidden in the darkness, was drawn to her.
Qian Daoliu and Tang Chen instantly fell in love with the woman, their eyes blazing with passion.
"I am Bo Saixi, High Elder of Sea God Island. I invite the two of you to fight somewhere else with me. Please do not harm the innocent." The woman's gentle voice reached the ears of Qian Daoliu and Tang Chen.
"That is reasonable." Qian Daoliu glanced toward the area where Tang Chen was hiding, then followed Bo Saixi into the distance. He had detected Tang Chen's presence from the very beginning. The reason he had not attacked was that he had been guarding against Tang Chen. If the battle had not begun turning against him, Qian Daoliu would have continued guarding against Tang Chen from the shadows.
Seeing this, Tang Chen knew that he had already been exposed, so he followed the two of them into the distance.
Over the sea, far from Sea God Island.
Bo Saixi, Qian Daoliu, and Tang Chen floated above the surface of the sea.
"Beautiful Miss Bo Saixi, I am Qian Daoliu. From the moment you appeared, I fell in love with you at first sight. Would you be willing to marry me?" Qian Daoliu was the first to express his feelings.
Seeing this, Tang Chen chimed in as well. "I am Tang Chen, Master of the Clear Sky Sect. I fell in love with Miss Bo Saixi at first sight and have developed feelings for her. Would you be willing to marry me?"
When Bo Saixi suddenly received declarations of love from the two men, she thought, Why not make them fight over me and then reap the benefits afterward?
"Thank you both for your affection. I will spend my entire life serving the Sea God, so if I seek a partner, I will only choose someone even stronger."
Qian Daoliu and Tang Chen immediately found each other displeasing.
Qian Daoliu said, "I've long wanted to experience the skills of the Master of the Clear Sky Sect."
Tang Chen said, "So have I. I've long heard that Qian Daoliu, the High Elder of Spirit Hall, is immensely powerful. I'd also like to experience your strength."
Qian Daoliu and Tang Chen then summoned their respective martial souls and began sparring.
Although both men had developed feelings for Bo Saixi and wanted to become her partner, they both knew that Bo Saixi was a powerhouse of the same rank as them. Moreover, neither of them used their full strength during the spar.
