Tang Chen, having regained his sanity and successfully broken through to Demigod, did not return to the Clear Sky Sect.

He did not even concern himself with how the City of Slaughter would develop next, leaving directly.

He had not destroyed the place because he did not have much time left to make use of and could not waste it.

He wanted to see that person who had haunted his dreams once more.

"Xixi, I'm here."

After leaving the City of Slaughter, Tang Chen flew toward Sea God Island.

Bright Moon Brothel.

Watching the scene on the Sky Screen, Zhongli's expression did not change in the slightest. He merely held his teacup, seemingly lost in thought.

The noble performers onstage had already left and retreated backstage.

The audience below gradually filed out in an orderly manner.

Most of them were pampered young masters, but that did not mean they lacked manners or failed to understand propriety.

Those who could become pampered young masters were mostly the most favored members of their families.

"Childe Zhongli, Qingguan has already left. Would you like to continue enjoying your tea, or..."

With a professional smile, the waiter asked Zhongli.

This man was a major customer of Bright Moon Brothel, someone they absolutely could not offend.

Even if he were penniless, his wisdom alone was no small fortune.

Upon hearing this.

Zhongli came back to his senses, looked at the waiter, and said,

"Bring paper, ink, brush, and inkstone. I'll leave behind a piece of music as payment for today's tea and a tip."

Upon hearing this.

The waiter's eyes lit up. This man's calligraphy was anything but ordinary!

They were not people who cared only for money and not for calligraphy!

More importantly, famous performers would compete to purchase Zhongli's calligraphy.

The pieces he left behind always brought greater profits to both the performers and Bright Moon Brothel.

Thus, Bright Moon Brothel had never liked Zhongli paying with money. They preferred that he leave behind something else.

To Bright Moon Brothel, Zhongli was their most important guest and had to be treated with the utmost reverence!

"Please wait a moment. I'll fetch them right away!"

"What are you standing around for? Change Childe Zhongli's tea! Use the best tea and the best water!"

Seeing that the staff behind Zhongli had no sense at all, the waiter hurriedly "instructed" them.

This was a great literary master. If he felt Bright Moon Brothel had treated him poorly and did not come again next time—

Those famous performers would tear them apart!

"Yes, yes!"

Zhongli's expression remained unchanged.

Such a "transaction" was mutually agreeable, and there was nothing improper about it.

At first, Bright Moon Brothel had been somewhat reluctant, but after seeing Zhongli's works, they wished he would always use this kind of "transaction"!

Only after tasting meat did one understand how delicious it was!

Shrek Academy.

A group of youths stared blankly at the Sky Screen, their eyes filled with envy.

The strong had received rewards from the Sky Screen, while ants like them could only watch helplessly, unable to do anything.

This feeling was so powerless.

"If there were a Martial Soul Ranking or a Power Ranking for the younger generation, we might have a chance."

Dai Mubai murmured, clenching his fists.

Yet he had not considered one question: if there truly were a Martial Soul Ranking, even if the White Tiger Martial Soul made the list, would the reward be his?

Qian Daoliu and Qian Renxue both possessed the Six-winged Angel Martial Soul.

If the Six-winged Angel Martial Soul made the list, the reward would certainly go to Qian Daoliu and have almost nothing to do with Qian Renxue. After all, his strength was greater.

The strong would always be strong.

They would not be surpassed simply because the weak received a few scraps.

"The younger generation will surely have a place on it. The only question is whether the Sky Screen will create such a ranking."

Yu Xiaogang said with his hands clasped behind his back.

He frowned, hoping Tang San would make the list, yet also hoping he would not make it so soon.

Once his Twin Martial Souls were exposed, Tang San's peaceful life would be shattered. That was not what Yu Xiaogang wanted to see.

He hoped Tang San would not expose his second Martial Soul until he became a Titled Douluo.

"If Tang Chen returns to the Clear Sky Sect and Tang San acknowledges his ancestry and returns to the clan, then exposing it... would not be impossible."

"But... what would my role be..."

Once Tang Chen returned, what place would there be for Yu Xiaogang?

If Tang San left, how could he fulfill his dream?

Yu Xiaogang sighed, his gaze somewhat vacant as he looked toward the Sky Screen.

At that moment, the Sky Screen changed once more.

[TOP 6: Heavenly Snow Woman.]

When this "name" appeared, nearly all humans were stunned.

Heavenly Snow Woman did not sound like a human name no matter how one looked at it.

Humanity's understanding of the Extreme North Land still remained limited to the Frozen Forest.

Before crossing the barrier of the Frozen Forest, they had not even known of the Extreme North Land.

"A Soul Beast powerhouse has made the list..."

At the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Ning Fengzhi said softly, as though he had seen through everything long ago.

What kind of Soul Beast could suppress three Peerless Douluo and ascend the list?

Humanity's understanding of Soul Beasts also remained superficial. They did not know that beyond Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts, there were existences such as Fierce Beasts.

The current human powerhouses did not possess Soul Cores, but Fierce Beasts did.

Therefore, the combat strength of Fierce Beasts could not be measured against the Titled Douluo of ten thousand years later.

Fierce Beasts were not something today's Titled Douluo could compare themselves to.

[Heavenly Snow Woman.] [Age: Six Hundred Ninety Thousand Years.] [She was an elf of ice and snow, born of heaven and nurtured by earth.] [She was the daughter of ice and snow, the sovereign of the Extreme North Land.]

"???"

"You've got to be kidding, right?"

"Six Hundred Ninety Thousand Years??"

The human side was dumbfounded. Their understanding still remained at the level of Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts.

Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts were comparable to Titled Douluo. When a Titled Douluo faced one alone, most could only flee.

That was humanity's understanding!

Spirit Hall.

The pupils of the Titled Douluo constricted. As the top combat power among humanity, merely seeing this information made their scalps go numb.

Their plan to encircle and hunt a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast had not even been carried out yet, and now such a terrifying Soul Beast had suddenly appeared. How could they not be afraid?

The stronger one was, the more one understood the terror of Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts.

Six Hundred Ninety Thousand Years—could a Soul Beast of this level still be considered a Soul Beast?

Bibi Dong and Qian Daoliu looked at the Sky Screen, unable to stop a chill from running down their backs.

Had Soul Beasts already possessed such powerhouses?

Extreme North Land.

A peerlessly beautiful elf, nearly three meters tall and humanoid in appearance, showed a trace of astonishment on her face.

She had thought the Sky Screen only ranked the powerhouses on humanity's side.

She had not expected it to expose her so quickly.

At Snow Woman's side, a Green Scorpion waved its pincers at the Sky Screen.

It did not believe Snow Empress was only ranked sixth!

It was even angrier that it had not made the list!

[Emperor Sword!] [Emperor Palm!] [Emperor Cold Heaven!]

Snow Woman's figure appeared on the Sky Screen. She was fighting a black-robed figure.

The ultimate ice and snow formed a picture of breathtaking beauty.

"A Humanoid Soul Beast?"

There were quite a few Humanoid Soul Beasts, such as Medusa or the Lava Beast.

But Heavenly Snow Woman looked far too much like a human!

Aside from her height of more than three meters, she was almost no different from a human.

"Who is the person fighting her?"

This was a terrifying existence with an age of Six Hundred Ninety Thousand Years, yet someone was fighting her without falling into a disadvantage!

This world had become somewhat unrecognizable!

It felt so unfamiliar!
