Clear Sky Sect,

As the Golden Ranking revealed more rankings, the smug expressions on the faces of several Clear Sky Sect elders grew even more pronounced.

The Sixth Elder laughed heartily.

"Heavenly Dao's Golden Ranking is quite fair. It knows that a Soul Master's combat power cannot be judged by level alone. Two Super Douluo are ranked behind us, which proves that even in Heavenly Dao's eyes, our Clear Sky Hammer is unquestionably the best in the world!"

Tang Xiao watched the elders burst into laughter before him, yet a faint sense of unease rose in his heart.

Chrysanthemum Douluo had taken the wrong path of development, so it was understandable for him to rank at the bottom. But Bone Douluo Gu Rong, one of the two guardian Douluo of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect—also one of the Upper Three Sects—possessed the top-tier Beast Martial Soul, the Bone Dragon. How could his combat power be only twenty-ninth?!

Shrek Academy,

Ning Rongrong's smile froze. At this moment, she had no mind left to question Yu Xiaogang's questionable professional expertise.

"How is that possible? How could my Bone Grandpa be ranked only twenty-ninth? My Bone Grandpa is a Super Douluo!"

Ning Rongrong's young miss temperament usually made her act without restraint, and now she pointed at the sky and cursed loudly.

A smile appeared on Yu Xiaogang's lips. So what if all his rankings had been wrong? Once these rankings were announced, his father would shake the continent with a top-five ranking!

[Bone Douluo Gu Rong's Bone Dragon Martial Soul possesses an extremely rare and powerful space attribute. However, Douluo Continent lacks resources, and he has no better-matched spirit skills, causing him to become a Defense System Soul Master. Thus, he is ranked here.]

[Reward: All Soul Ring Year Limits increased by eight hundred years. One replaceable First Spirit Skill compatible with the Bone Dragon Martial Soul.]

A replaceable First Spirit Skill?!

As the Heavenly Dao Golden Ranking announced the reward, a dazzling golden beam shot down from the heavens toward the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect outside Heaven Dou City.

Within the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect,

Gu Rong stared in astonishment at the golden light circling around him. When Chrysanthemum Douluo received his reward earlier, it had merely been a beam of white light. Could a difference of one rank truly be as vast as heaven and earth?!

"Bone Uncle, the Golden Ranking said that your Martial Soul was limited by the continent's resources. Now that it can replace your First Spirit Skill, isn't that wonderful?"

Ning Fengzhi still wore a warm smile. Before the Sword and Bone Douluo, he had no need to disguise himself. He was genuinely happy that Bone Douluo had received such a suitable reward.

Gu Rong nodded, then cast a provocative glance at Sword Douluo Chen Xin.

"Old swordsman, once I get a suitable spirit skill, let's have another fight!"

He reached into the golden light and felt a faint warmth spread through his body. His nine Soul Rings, all enhanced by eight hundred years, burst forth with a roar. The pressure of a Titled Douluo was revealed without reservation.

His First Soul Ring, which had turned purple, dissipated as golden light filled the vacant space.

A moment later, Gu Rong's booming laughter rang out from within the golden light.

A sharp gleam flashed through Chen Xin's eyes, and a streak of sword qi slashed toward the window.

"Old swordsman, I'm over here!"

Chen Xin turned around, only to find Gu Rong back in his original spot, leisurely taking a sip of fragrant tea.

Ning Fengzhi's eyes were filled with shock. Even as merely a Support System Soul Master, he knew exactly how powerful a spirit skill was if it could prevent Chen Xin, another Super Douluo, from detecting his true position.

"Bone Uncle, this spirit skill..."

"My current First Spirit Skill, Bone Dragon Shadow Movement, lets me teleport to any point within fifty meters. I can also return to my original position at will, and it consumes very little Soul Power."

Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin both fell into stunned silence. The rewards from the Heavenly Dao Golden Ranking truly had something special to them!

Extreme North, Great Wall Academy.

Shao Siyuan looked curiously at the Golden Ranking in the sky and asked Su Han,

"Dean, can I make the ranking?"

She blinked her pale pink eyes, her gaze filled with concern about her own strength.

After all, she knew that within Great Wall Academy, aside from the unfathomably powerful Dean, Sister Wu Zetian and Sister Hua Mulan were both terrifyingly strong as well.

As the bottom of the Power Ranking at Extreme North Academy, Shao Siyuan still lacked confidence.

"You're strong enough, but it should be your turn soon."

Su Han considered Shao Siyuan's Soul Power, which was only level ninety-one, and replied thoughtfully.

With the talents of the King's Heroes he had summoned, as long as they cultivated normally, they would at least become level ninety-five Super Douluo within three years. But Shao Siyuan was still a young girl and was indeed too fond of playing around.

Just then, rolling thunder resounded once more from the Heavenly Dao Golden Ranking.

[Twenty-eighth on the Power Ranking: Spirit Hall, Ghost DouluoGuimei!]

[Shadow Martial Soul, level ninety-five Agility Attack System Super Douluo!]

Within Spirit Hall,

With Chrysanthemum Douluo, who had previously occupied the final rank, as an example, Guimei had already prepared himself.

Looking at Yue Guan beside him, who appeared absent-minded, he stepped forward to console him.

"Why don't you examine the Ten Thousand Year Spirit Bone reward the Golden Ranking gave you? Since the Golden Ranking understands the flaws in your cultivation, that Spirit Bone should be able to make up for your lack of control. It's still a good thing."

Bibi Dong's expression was as dark as water. Her two right-hand men ranked near the bottom among the continent's peak combatants. What would happen to the authority of her Spirit Hall? What would happen to her grand ambitions?!

Spirit City was in an uproar. Everyone was cursing the Heavenly Dao Golden Ranking as some unofficial list, claiming that its rankings were complete nonsense.

While some rejoiced and others worried, Spirit City was filled with furious curses directed at the Golden Ranking, while the Clear Sky Sect, which had sealed off its mountain gates, was brimming with celebration.

The atmosphere within the sect was even livelier than during the New Year. Every disciple, steward, and even elder flaunted their Clear Sky Hammer Martial Souls, as though the Clear Sky Sect was about to reemerge and once again prove the might of the continent's number one sect.

[Ghost Douluo Guimei's Martial Soul is unique. The Agility Attack System is relatively suitable for him, but he lacks offensive methods and thus possesses lower combat power. Therefore, he is ranked here.]

[Reward: All Soul Ring Year Limits increased by eight hundred years. One fifty-thousand-year Right Arm Soul Bone and one fifty-thousand-year Left Arm Soul Bone!]

Guimei revealed a delighted expression. What the Golden Ranking had said was precisely what he had always lacked. He inferred that Chrysanthemum Douluo's reward had been intended to make up for his shortcomings in control.

Then the two fifty-thousand-year arm Spirit Bones awarded to him by the Golden Ranking would naturally make up for his lack of offensive methods.

At this point, Guimei only wanted to say that the Golden Ranking was truly generous. As for resenting his ranking and coveting the rewards of a higher rank—

He could only say that, as someone in Spirit Hall, he knew just how terrifying truly powerful Soul Masters could be.

"Other than the Great Enshrined and His Holiness the Pope, who else is worthy of competing for first place on this Supreme Combat Power Golden Ranking?"

Guimei suppressed his thoughts and looked joyfully at the two dark-purple arm Spirit Bones before him.

He looked toward Bibi Dong, only to see her wave a hand and say directly,

"The Golden Ranking's rewards are suited to you. Once the rankings are fully announced, you and Elder Yue Guan may enter seclusion together to absorb them. Your rankings were low this time. I hope the two of you will take this humiliation as motivation and strive harder."

"This subordinate is incompetent. I will certainly work twice as hard to ease Your Holiness's burdens."
