"I'm level 20 already?"

Shock appeared on Lin Xianyu's face. She simply could not believe she had become a level 20 Soul Grandmaster already.

No one on the Douluo Continent cultivated faster than Lin Xianyu.

She had gone from level 0 to level 20 in less than half a year.

She was only a little over six years old, not even seven, yet she was already a level 20 Soul Grandmaster.

Another year from now, wouldn't she become a level 30 Soul Elder...

I knew the system hadn't abandoned me. It kept giving me benefits, and I finally broke through to level 20. Now I...

Lin Xianyu was ecstatic, but when she remembered that she was still a little girl too weak to even truss a chicken, she immediately became depressed. "Fine, even if I'm a level 20 Soul Grandmaster, I'm still a weakling with a combat power below five."

"However, now that I've mastered the Mysterious Heaven Skill and have Tang Sect hidden weapons to go with it, I can fight a Soul Elder."

Lin Xianyu had only mastered the Mysterious Heaven Skill so far. This was a benefit granted to her by the Sky Screen System. As for hidden weapons?

The Sky Screen System had given those to Lin Xianyu as well.

Tang San's early creation—the Sleeve Arrow.

When he had followed Old Jack to register at Nuoding Academy and was obstructed by the gatekeeper, he had considered using the Sleeve Arrow to kill him.

Grandmaster had scolded the gatekeeper, which counted as saving his life. Then he had talked Tang San into revealing that he possessed Twin Martial Souls, provoking Tang San's resentment. Tang San had wanted to kill Grandmaster with the Sleeve Arrow, but Grandmaster talked him around in time and thoroughly fooled him.

Tang San had been confident that he could kill a level 29 Soul Grandmaster like Grandmaster with the Sleeve Arrow, which was enough to prove how effective it was. As long as someone was unprepared, they could easily be assassinated by a Sleeve Arrow.

Lin Xianyu now had Sleeve Arrows as well, which gave her at least a little more sense of security.

It was not much, but it was enough in Holy Spirit Village. As long as she obediently stayed in Holy Spirit Village and did not wander around outside, she naturally would not have to worry about encountering any danger.

As long as Holy Spirit Village was safe, Lin Xianyu was safe.

Lin Xianyu had broken through to level 20 Soul Grandmaster, but for her own safety, she did not publicize it.

In the villagers' eyes, Lin Xianyu was still an ordinary little girl.

Her disguise was flawless and did not draw the attention of the Soul Masters living in Holy Spirit Village.

Lin Xianyu did not want her peaceful days to be disrupted.

Three days passed like this. It was not supposed to be a day when the Sky Screen appeared, yet the Sky Screen emerged in the night sky today.

"The Sky Screen?"

"Today isn't supposed to be the day the Sky Screen appears."

"The Sky Screen suddenly appeared! Hurry and wake everyone who's asleep!"

The people of the Douluo Continent were surprised, but they quickly went to wake those who were asleep.

The Sky Screen had appeared, so what was the point of sleeping? Get up and have some fun!

Quite a few people rubbed their eyes, yawned, and walked out of their rooms.

At the same time.

The correct answer to the preview question left behind when the Sky Screen's viewing ended three days ago was announced.

Those who had noticed the Sky Screen's appearance immediately gave their answers.

Whether their answers were correct or false, they answered the question anyway.

Those who came out too late missed their chance to answer. Now that they saw the correct answer being revealed, every one of them regretted it bitterly.

The correct answer was that Tang San defeated the Man Faced Demon Spider. The Sky Screen soon played the corresponding footage—Tang San fought a bitter battle against the Man Faced Demon Spider before finally killing it with great difficulty.

Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

"Good heavens! He had just broken through to level 30 and didn't even have his third soul ring, yet he actually killed a Man Faced Demon Spider!" Madam Ning exclaimed.

The Man Faced Demon Spider was no friendly soul beast. Not only did human Soul Masters dislike it, even other soul beasts disliked it.

Though it was only a thousand-year soul beast, ordinary Soul Elders could not handle it.

Yet Tang San had killed this thousand-year Man Faced Demon Spider. Although it had been injured, it was still not something an ordinary Soul Elder could deal with.

Of course, Tang San had not dealt with the Man Faced Demon Spider using his Blue Silver Grass martial soul. He had relied on the hidden weapons he had forged using memories from his previous life.

"He's the protagonist of the story. Until the story ends, he can't die," Ning Fengzhi said, utterly ruining the mood.

"I know he's the protagonist. I don't need you to explain it to me." Madam Ning rolled her eyes at Ning Fengzhi in annoyance.

Tang San had killed the Man Faced Demon Spider, and seeing the soul ring it dropped, he realized that he happened to need one now.

However, Tang San was not in good condition.

During his battle with the Man Faced Demon Spider, he had been poisoned.

To better absorb the soul ring, Tang San decided to force the poison out first.

He sat cross-legged, circulated the Mysterious Heaven Skill, and began expelling the poison.

However, before he could successfully force out the poison or even absorb the soul ring, someone arrived.

Tang San had no choice but to stop expelling the poison.

He looked up and saw that the newcomer was actually Meng Yiran.

Earlier, he had fought Meng Yiran in Oscar's place and had nearly overturned the cart, but his skills had ultimately been superior, and he had defeated her.

And now he had run into Meng Yiran again.

This was a cursed fate, wasn't it?

After Chao Tianxiang had taken Meng Yiran away, she had finally reunited with Dragon Grandpa Meng Shu.

With her grandparents' help, she found a soul beast suitable for her soul ring—the Man Faced Demon Spider Tang San had killed.

Tang San had been able to defeat the Man Faced Demon Spider largely because the Peerless Dragon Snake couple had already severely injured it.

If the Man Faced Demon Spider had been at full strength, then even if Tang San used every one of his hidden weapons and even brought out his other martial soul, he still would not have been able to kill it.

When Meng Yiran saw the dead Man Faced Demon Spider, her face turned pale with rage.

Once again!

The first time, she had set her sights on the Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent, only for someone else to snatch it away. This time, she had set her sights on the Man Faced Demon Spider and had nearly killed it, but someone else had stolen it again.

Was her luck really so bad today that no matter how many soul beasts she found, they would all be taken from her?

Meng Yiran was depressed to death.

Tang San stepped forward at that moment.

He had no intention of hiding.

On one hand, it was for the Man Faced Demon Spider's soul ring. On the other, a Spirit Douluo was powerful enough to find him even if he hid.

"You... why is it you again?" When Meng Yiran saw Tang San, her pretty face turned even paler. Her eyes nearly spat fire as she snapped, "I gave you the Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent before, and now you're stealing my soul beast again. You... you've gone too far!"

"I'm sorry. The Man Faced Demon Spider attacked me. To protect myself, I could only kill it." Tang San apologized politely.

He was telling the truth.

He had not known that the Man Faced Demon Spider was the soul ring Meng Yiran had chosen.

He only knew that the Man Faced Demon Spider had attacked him, and to survive, he could only kill it.

"You killed the Man Faced Demon Spider by yourself?" Meng Shu looked at Tang San with an odd expression.

"Yes." Tang San forced himself to answer.

Meng Shu's eyes lit up.

When he had heard Chao Tianxiang say that Tang San and his granddaughter had matched each other evenly in a clash of Soul Power, he had already believed Tang San to be a genius no weaker than his granddaughter.

If they had not met, then so be it.

But now that they had met, he would not be willing to let Tang San go without trying to recruit him into his family.
