Heaven Dou Empire Imperial Palace, within the imperial garden.

Prince Xue Xing looked at the rankings on the Sky Screen, and his expression instantly darkened. He snorted coldly.

"He's merely a prince of Star Luo, yet he actually ranked fifteenth.

"And he even received a Martial Soul Origin Enhancement reward. That old bastard Dai Yutian really got off easy!"

Xue Beng stood beside him, still wearing the air of a spoiled playboy, but a meaningful smile tugged at his lips.

"Why get angry, Uncle? Dai Weisi may be strong, but he's only fifteenth. There are still fourteen people ahead of him."

He appeared to be comforting Xue Xing, but in truth, he was making his own calculations.

Xue Qinghe's, or rather Qian Renxue's, influence was growing stronger, and the position of Heaven Dou Empire's heir was hanging by a thread.

If Star Luo Empire became overconfident because Dai Weisi had made the Gold Ranking List and clashed with Spirit Hall, it would buy him more time and bargaining chips.

Xue Xing glanced at Xue Beng, failing to see through his thoughts. He merely waved a hand irritably.

"What do you know? Star Luo Empire has always revered strength. That brat Dai Weisi is exceptionally gifted, and now that he has received a Heavenly Dao Blessing, he'll surely become a major threat in the future.

"Where are Heaven Dou Empire's prodigies? Not one of them has even made it into the top fifteen. What a disgrace!"

Xue Beng closed his folding fan and feigned helplessness. "Don't worry, Uncle. The Heavenly Dao Golden Ranking hasn't finished updating yet. Perhaps a Heaven Dou prodigy will appear later.

"Besides, the Five Elements Academy are all within Heaven Dou's borders. If we unite them, we can certainly overshadow Star Luo."

Hearing this, Xue Xing's expression eased slightly, and he nodded. "You're right. Those youngsters from the elemental academies do have some ability. I only hope they'll do us proud and not let Heaven Dou Empire fall behind Star Luo."

Each harbored their own thoughts as they watched the Sky Screen.

Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

Sword Douluo Chen Xin looked at the Gold Ranking List information on the Sky Screen, his silver-white hair drifting in the wind.

There was not the slightest trace of mockery in his eyes, only a pure assessment of strength.

"Evil Eye White Tiger, Level 41 Battle Soul Ancestor, breakthrough to Level 50 Soul King, Martial Soul Origin Enhancement..."

"Dai Weisi's talent is indeed quite good. The Evil Eye's mental attacks are already difficult to deal with.

"Coupled with Star Luo Empire's battle-hardened cultivation methods, his combat power is among the best at the Same Level."

He lightly swung the Seven Kill Sword. A sharp sword aura sliced through the air before instantly withdrawing.

"However, his fifteenth-place ranking also shows that his potential still has shortcomings.

"Although the Evil Eye White Tiger Spirit is powerful, it relies too heavily on killing intent. If he encounters an opponent with a resolute state of mind, he may not necessarily gain the upper hand."

In Chen Xin's eyes, one's current realm was merely superficial. The essence of strength was what truly mattered.

"Star Luo Empire producing such a prodigy has certainly muddied the waters of the continent even further."

Chen Xin sheathed his sword and turned toward Spirit City, a trace of vigilance flashing in his eyes.

"Spirit Hall will not sit idly by and watch Star Luo rise, and Heaven Dou will make its own moves as well. The rankings to come will likely be even more interesting."

Clear Sky Sect.

Tang Xiao looked at Dai Weisi's ranking on the Sky Screen. The rage he had displayed earlier was gone, replaced by silence.

Tang Long stood behind him with his head lowered, shame still on his face. "Father, Dai Weisi ranked one place above me. His strength... truly surpasses mine."

Tang Xiao waved a hand, not rebuking Tang Long as he slowly said, "Dai Weisi's Evil Eye White Tiger Spirit is inherently a top-tier beast martial soul.

"Together with Star Luo Empire's iron-blooded upbringing, his fifteenth-place ranking is well deserved.

"In contrast, although you possess the Clear Sky Hammer inheritance, you rely too heavily on strength and lack flexibility and adaptability. That is why your potential was judged to be one-dimensional."

He turned to Tang Long, his tone stern. "Dai Weisi making the list today serves as a warning to you. Cultivation is not just about brute force, and the Clear Sky Hammer does not win solely through smashing.

"If you wish to break through your bottleneck, you must learn to integrate techniques and make up for your own weaknesses."

Tang Long abruptly raised his head, a flash of understanding appearing in his eyes. "I understand, Father! I will devote myself to cultivation and learn techniques. One day, I will surpass Dai Weisi and bring glory to Clear Sky Sect!"

Tang Xiao nodded and looked toward the Sky Screen again, determination flashing in his eyes. "Clear Sky Sect has lain dormant for many years. We cannot remain stuck in our ways any longer.

"Pass down my order. Open the sect's library and allow the disciples to learn diverse combat techniques. They must not remain confined to the Clear Sky Hammer's traditional fighting style!"

After suffering the blow of Tang Long's ranking and then witnessing Dai Weisi's powerful appearance on the list,

Tang Xiao no longer remained blindly arrogant. Instead, he began calmly reflecting on Clear Sky Sect's cultivation methods.

Spirit City, Papal Palace.

Bibi Dong sat upon the Pope's throne.

As she looked at Dai Weisi on the Sky Screen, the amusement she had shown while mocking Clear Sky Sect earlier was gone from her purple eyes, replaced by a trace of gravity.

Her fingers lightly tapped the armrest, her voice cold. "Dai Weisi, Star Luo Empire's Eldest Prince, Evil Eye White Tiger Martial Soul enhancement.

"His soul power has broken through to Soul King... Star Luo Empire has produced quite a promising seedling."

Ghost Douluo Gui Mei cautiously said, "Your Eminence the Pope, Dai Weisi's rise may hinder Spirit Hall's plan to unify the continent.

"Star Luo Empire is already opposed to Heaven Dou. If Dai Weisi grows stronger, Star Luo's power will become even greater."

Bibi Dong lightly shook her head, calculation flashing in her eyes. "A hindrance? Not necessarily. Star Luo Empire values strength, and Dai Yutian is ambitious.

"If Dai Weisi can be used by me, he can become a chess piece to restrain Heaven Dou and the Upper Three Sects."

She paused, then said to Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan, "Yue Guan, send someone to Star Luo Empire and ask the Star Luo Emperor whether he is willing to form an alliance with Spirit Hall."

Chrysanthemum Douluo bowed. "Yes, Your Eminence the Pope! The Star Luo Emperor is, after all, the ruler of a nation. I fear he will not submit easily."

"Then let him understand that Spirit Hall's strength is enough to make him abandon the pride of being Star Luo's emperor."

Bibi Dong's voice carried unquestionable authority. "If he fails to appreciate our goodwill, then join forces with Heaven Dou and destroy Star Luo first. We cannot allow him to grow into a threat to Spirit Hall."

Shrek Academy.

On Shrek Academy's training field outside Suotuo City, Dai Mubai looked at Dai Weisi's name on the Sky Screen.

His pupils abruptly contracted, and the White Tiger Martial Soul around him erupted out of control. His silver-white fur stood on end, and his eyes were filled with jealousy and rage.

He recalled the times he had been bullied by this elder brother of his. His hair was already standing on end, clearly showing a stress response!

At the mention of this elder brother, he felt nothing but fear and resentment!

"Dai Weisi!" Dai Mubai growled through gritted teeth, clenching his fists until his knuckles turned white.

"That bastard actually ranked fifteenth! And he even received a Martial Soul Origin Enhancement reward!"

He and Dai Weisi were biological brothers, but they had also been rivals since childhood.

The struggle for Star Luo Empire's throne had long made them bitter enemies.

Now that Dai Weisi had been named on the Gold Ranking List and received such generous Heavenly Dao Blessings, Dai Mubai's pride suffered a tremendous blow.

"Damn it, he's only fifteenth. What's there to be so proud of?"

Dai Mubai forcibly suppressed the jealousy in his heart and put on an arrogant smile again as he spoke to Flender beside him.

"Dean, that brat Dai Weisi only ranked fifteenth because he got lucky.

"My Dai Mubai's Strength is far greater than his. Once I make the list, I'll definitely charge into the top ten and leave him far behind!"
