Yu Xiaogang's words carried a powerful obsession. He regarded Oscar's placement on the ranking as a victory for the Soul Power System.

He completely ignored the threat posed by the Dou Qi System, immersing himself in the joy of seeing his theories validated.

Seeing Yu Xiaogang stubbornly clinging to his beliefs, Oscar felt a trace of helplessness. He wanted to reason with him and explain to his teacher that they should embrace the Dou Qi System.

But when he saw the confident expression on Yu Xiaogang's face and recalled how his teacher had flown into a rage and broken down over the Dou Qi System before,

he could not bear to interrupt his joy. In the end, he merely opened his mouth before swallowing back the words that had reached his lips.

He sighed softly and looked toward the Golden Light on the Sky Screen, his eyes filled with concern.

He knew that his teacher's obsession had already taken deep root. If he continued to remain set in his ways,

then Shrek Academy would likely be driven into an irreparable situation by the impact of the Dou Qi System in the future.

The cheers on the training ground continued. Flender was still shouting excitedly, while Dai Mubai was imagining his own ranking.

Ning Rongrong and Tang San congratulated Oscar, while Ma Hongjun kept his head lowered, his face full of embarrassment.

Only Oscar stood in the middle of the crowd. Even amid the joy, the concern in his heart hung over him like a massive boulder, refusing to fade for a long time.

The Golden Light on the Sky Screen remained dazzling as information about Oscar's seventh-place ranking slowly scrolled past.

Meanwhile, the various powers of the Douluo Continent were thrown into different moods by this Food System Soul Master's placement on the ranking.

The Golden Light on the Sky Screen suddenly shifted into Burning Heaven Purple Flame Color, as though proclaiming the overwhelming might of the Dou Qi System.

New golden words condensed with the domineering aura of Dou Po Academy, driving the shock across the Douluo Continent to a new peak:

[Sixth Place on the Heavenly Pride Ranking: Dugu Yan] [Martial Soul: Jade Phosphorous Snake (fused with Falling Heart Flame)] [Level: Peak Dou Wang (Dou Qi System)] [Affiliated Power: Dou Po Academy] [Overall Evaluation: Chief disciple of Dou Po Academy, cultivates the Dou Qi System, fused with the nineteenth-ranked Falling Heart Flame on the Heavenly Flame Ranking] [Her Poison Fire Dual System combat power stands unrivaled across the continent. Even at peak Dou Wang, she can crush Soul Emperors across ranks. Potential Rating: SSS!] [Heavenly Dao Blessing: Dou Qi Infusion directly breaks through to the Dou Emperor realm (One-Star Dou Emperor); Falling Heart Flame origin evolves; gains the Poison Fire Domain Burning Heaven Poison Mist; Dou Qi recovery speed increased by 100%!]

Following Meng Yi Ran in tenth place and Ye Ling Ling in ninth, Dou Po Academy's chief disciple Dugu Yan forcefully entered the ranking in sixth place.

The Dou Qi System once again overpowered the Soul Power System.

Yu Xiaogang's previous confident declarations that "the Soul Power System is the strongest" and "the Dou Qi System is merely an unorthodox path"

had been transmitted by the Heavenly Dao Golden Ranking's special power to every corner of the continent.

Now, Dugu Yan's placement on the ranking was like a series of resounding slaps, grinding Yu Xiaogang's dignity into the dirt again and again without leaving him even a shred of face.

On the training ground of Shrek Academy outside Suotuo City, when Dugu Yan's ranking information appeared on the Sky Screen,

Yu Xiaogang's expression instantly changed from smugness to deathly pale. His body staggered back two steps uncontrollably, and he had to brace himself against the stone table beside him to barely remain standing.

He stared fixedly at the words "Sixth Place · Dugu Yan · One-Star Dou Emperor," his eyes filled with incredulous terror and struggle as he muttered:

"No... impossible! Dou Po Academy's chief disciple is only ranked sixth, isn't she? She's even one place below Oscar! The Soul Power System is still stronger!"

As though he had grasped a lifeline, he suddenly raised his head and roared at the surrounding disciples: "

Look! Dugu Yan is only sixth, while Oscar is seventh. The prodigies of our Soul Power System still surpass them! The Dou Qi System is nothing special!"

Flender stood nearby, watching Yu Xiaogang's hysterical appearance with a helpless smile. He wanted to persuade him, yet did not know where to begin.

He knew that Yu Xiaogang's obsession had taken root too deeply. He would not listen to any rebuttal at all.

Oscar walked over to Yu Xiaogang, his face full of concern as he carefully said:

"Teacher, Dugu Yan has already broken through to the Dou Emperor realm. We can no longer ignore the strength of the Dou Qi System. Embracing all paths is the proper way. We should..."

"Shut up!" Yu Xiaogang abruptly interrupted Oscar, his eyes filled with fury and stubbornness.

"Oscar, why are you speaking up for the Dou Qi System too? You are a prodigy of the Soul Power System, Heaven Dou's Number One Prodigy!

Dugu Yan is only sixth, and you are one place above her. Doesn't that prove the strength of the Soul Power System?"

He turned toward Dai Mubai, a trace of expectation flashing through his eyes, as though he had seized his final lifeline:

"Mubai! You are the leader of the Shrek Seven Devils, and your Evil Eye White Tiger Spirit is a top-tier Beast Martial Soul.

You will definitely break into the top five, completely crush these people from the Dou Qi System, and prove the orthodox status of the Soul Power System!"

With Yu Xiaogang placing such high hopes on him, Dai Mubai immediately straightened his chest, a wild grin appearing on his face.

"Rest assured, Teacher! I will definitely make it into the top five and let everyone know that I, Dai Mubai, am the true Top-Tier Heavenly Pride!"

Oscar sighed softly when he saw Yu Xiaogang stubbornly clinging to his beliefs, saying nothing more.

He knew that no matter what he said, his teacher would not listen. This obsession born from the dispute between systems had already made Yu Xiaogang lose his reason.

Dai Mubai stared at the ranking on the Sky Screen, his eyes full of anticipation and impatience. Rubbing his hands together, he said excitedly, "Sixth place has already been revealed. Next are the top five! I'll definitely make it into the top five—maybe I can even charge into the top three!"

Ma Hongjun immediately sidled up to Dai Mubai and flatteringly praised him, "Boss Mubai, you definitely won't have a problem!

Your Evil Eye White Tiger Spirit is so powerful, and you're so strong. Wouldn't the top five be easy for you? Once you rank in the top five, let's see who still dares look down on Shrek!"

Standing nearby, Ning Rongrong played with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda pendant in her hand. A trace of disdain appeared on her pretty face as she snorted.

"Dai Mubai, stop daydreaming! How could the top five be so easy to enter?

You can't even beat Oscar, yet you want to enter the top five? I think you'll rank sixth at best.

Oh, no, sixth place has already been taken by Dugu Yan. You probably won't even make the ranking!"

Dai Mubai's expression instantly darkened. What he hated most was having others question his strength.

Especially when he was mocked by a spoiled young miss like Ning Rongrong.

He abruptly turned around and roared at Ning Rongrong, "Ning Rongrong! What nonsense are you spouting? How could I possibly fail to make the ranking?

I'm the leader of the Shrek Seven Devils. I'm much stronger than you! You're just jealous of me. Since you can't make the ranking yourself, you can't stand seeing others succeed!"

"Jealous of you?" Ning Rongrong looked as though she had heard the biggest joke in the world. She put her hands on her hips, her fiery temper instantly flaring up.

"Dai Mubai, why don't you take a piss and look at yourself? With that little bit of strength, you want to make the top five?

Let me tell you, even if I, Ning Rongrong, don't make the ranking, I'm still better than a loudmouth like you!

If you can make the top five, I'll eat the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda!"
