Heaven Dou Imperial Palace, within the grand hall.

Qian Renxue, disguised as Xue Qinghe, had already brought out all the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures held by the Heaven Dou Imperial Family.

Shen Tianyu gave them a rough glance. There were seven ten-thousand-year immortal-grade items alone.

The hundred-year and thousand-year ones filled several large chests.

The imperial family truly was the imperial family, gathering treasures from across the land.

Compared to those academies, they were indeed filthy rich.

With a sweep of his hand, he stored everything in the Ruyi Hundred Treasures Pouch.

Xue Ye changed into a fresh robe and respectfully presented the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud in both hands.

Shen Tianyu accepted it and examined it carefully.

The Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud had a three-dimensional triangular shape. Its entire body was blue, crystal-clear as though carved from sapphire.

A crystalline blue glow emanated from within it, carrying strange ripples of energy.

At the very first glance, Shen Tianyu sensed the lingering remnant will of the Sea God inside.

This Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud was the Heart of the Sea God.

The energy it contained was naturally extremely pure.

He wondered whether refining it would allow his cultivation to reach the peak of the Golden Core Realm.

"My lord, may I ask what the third condition is?"

Xue Ye bowed respectfully, his face full of ingratiating flattery.

"As for this third condition, I want her!"

He pointed directly at Qian Renxue.

The two of them froze at the same time, suspecting they had misheard.

"My lord, you want Qinghe?"

"That's right!"

Xue Ye's expression immediately turned strange.

Could it be that this man had some unusual preferences?

Qian Renxue met Shen Tianyu's gaze. Those deep eyes seemed to have seen through everything.

Her heart skipped a beat. Could he have seen through my disguise?

"The guy who hurt my Rongrong, get the hell out here!"

A thunderous shout came from outside as powerful Sword Qi shot toward them.

Shen Tianyu flicked out a strand of Spiritual Energy, colliding with the Sword Qi.

Boom!

The energy ripples spread out, blasting Xue Ye to the far end of the hall.

Even with Soul Power protecting her body, Qian Renxue could not withstand it.

"It's Sword Douluo!"

Xue Ye climbed up from the ground as if he had caught hold of a savior.

"Sect Master Ning must be here too! Madman, your death day has come!"

Without the slightest concern for imperial dignity, Xue Ye scrambled toward the hall entrance.

"Sect Master Ning, save me!"

Whoosh!

Jiying flashed past, and Shen Tianyu was suddenly running alongside Xue Ye.

"Whether Young Master's death day has arrived is still unknown, but Xue Ye, your death day is here!"

He pressed one hand onto Xue Ye's head and casually swung his arm, flinging Xue Ye away.

The aged body flew out of the hall and exploded into a mist of blood on the spot.

In midair, Chen Xin and Ning Fengzhi's expressions both changed drastically.

The emperor of the Heaven Dou Empire had died just like that!

The next moment, Shen Tianyu rushed out of the hall.

He swung his fist and shot forward, throwing a punch straight at Chen Xin.

"Second Soul Skill! Spirit Sword Protection!"

Streams of Sword Qi erupted from the Seven Kill Sword, instantly enveloping Chen Xin and Ning Fengzhi.

A Sword Qi barrier formed, filled with a grim, murderous aura.

Bang!

The fist crashed down violently, shattering the Sword Qi barrier on the spot.

Chen Xin raised his left brow and sent Ning Fengzhi a hundred meters away with a streak of Sword Qi.

He held the Seven Kill Sword horizontally in his hand and collided with Shen Tianyu's fist.

The instant they exchanged blows, an endless force surged into both arms.

What immense strength!

Chen Xin was inwardly astonished, yet he felt no fear.

With a powerful swing of the Seven Kill Sword, he unleashed a streak of Sword Qi that struck Shen Tianyu's fleshly body at close range.

Stepping through the air, he leaped to a height of a thousand meters.

Shen Tianyu followed closely behind, catching up and standing opposite Chen Xin.

"Your Excellency's actions are far too arrogant. You injured the precious treasure of my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and now you have killed Xue Ye.

You even slaughtered more than two thousand Soul Masters and caused such a bloody tragedy. Are you not afraid that the Heavenly Dao will not tolerate you?"

"Bullshit Heavenly Dao! If we're talking about the Heavenly Dao, Young Master is the Heavenly Dao of this Douluo Continent!"

Shen Tianyu threw a disdainful punch and charged through the air with Burst Step.

"Chen Xin, why don't you ask the Heavenly Dao whether it dares to wrestle with Young Master?"

"Madman!"

After that brief exchange, Chen Xin had no desire to say more and attacked directly.

"My sword is four feet three inches long, and its name is Seven Kill!"

Nine Soul Rings emerged behind him, and the first hundred-year Soul Ring lit up.

First Soul Skill, Long Sword Draws Its Edge!

Sword Qi surged forth and attached itself to the Seven Kill Sword.

Chen Xin's attack immediately increased by thirty percent.

"Seven Treasures turn forth with glazed light, fifth: attack!"

The radiance shot forth like a meteor, rapidly entering Chen Xin's body.

His already formidable Sword Qi instantly rose several levels higher.

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda was the strongest support-type tool martial soul on Douluo Continent.

With every additional Soul Ring, the enhancement effects of all Soul Skills increased by ten percent.

As a Soul Saint, Ning Fengzhi's fifth Soul Skill, Attack Enhancement, increased Chen Xin's power by a full seventy percent.

Combined with the thirty percent increase from Long Sword Draws Its Edge, Chen Xin's Combat Strength had now doubled.

He boldly swung the Seven Kill Sword, slashing out violent Sword Qi through the sky.

Shen Tianyu's fist smashed directly into the Sword Qi.

Rumble—

An explosion erupted above the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace, raising a massive wave that swallowed Shen Tianyu.

The spreading Sword Qi mercilessly sliced through Shen Tianyu's fleshly body.

Tang San and the others, racing over with Jiying, saw the scene from afar, and much of the stifling anger in their chests was immediately relieved.

"Kill him!"

Flames burned in Tang San's eyes. Shen Tianyu suffering a setback was naturally a sight he was happy to see.

The towering waves of Sword Qi filling the sky made Tang San even more expectant, eagerly awaiting Shen Tianyu being torn to pieces beneath the Sword Qi.

In the blink of an eye, all those expectations were dashed.

Shen Tianyu flew out of the Sword Qi waves completely unharmed.

Like a cannonball, he shot toward Chen Xin.

His fist struck Chen Xin squarely in the chest. A mouthful of blood surged into Chen Xin's throat, only to be forcibly swallowed back down.

After sliding through the air for a hundred meters, Chen Xin steadied himself.

Slightly shocked, he could not help taking Shen Tianyu even more seriously.

Behind him, Ning Fengzhi was greatly startled.

Sword Douluo Chen Xin was the strongest attack-type Douluo on the entire continent.

Yet in his first exchange with Shen Tianyu, not only had he failed to gain an advantage, he had been pushed back instead.

This was absolutely not a situation Ning Fengzhi wished to see.

With a ruthless resolve, he simply stopped holding back.

All his Soul Rings lit up, and streams of light entered Chen Xin's body.

Strength, speed, attack, defense, Soul Power, and attributes—all received a seventy percent enhancement.

The already immensely powerful Sword Qi faintly seemed capable of piercing the heavens.

"Third Soul Skill!"

"Sword Wings Fly!"

Standing atop the Seven Kill Sword, Chen Xin arrived in an instant above Shen Tianyu.

Violent Sword Qi raged downward, aiming directly for the crown of his head.

Shen Tianyu raised his head and threw a punch upward.

The Sword Qi exploded as Fist Aura shot straight into the clouds.

Chen Xin immediately controlled the Seven Kill Sword, swiftly shifting his position to evade the Fist Aura.

The fourth Soul Ring lit up, and the Seven Kill Sword fell into his hand.

A trace of killing intent burst from between his brows.

Holding the sword in one hand, he slashed at Shen Tianyu.

"Fourth Soul Skill!"

"Killing Intent Revealed!"

Soul Power condensed into a blade, gleaming with cold light and incomparably sharp!

"Hmph!"

With a cold snort through his nostrils, Shen Tianyu stepped through the air with Burst Step.

The entire space trembled, on the verge of collapse and ready to shatter at any moment.

He clenched his fist and punched upward, colliding with the blade.

The sharp blade seemed to have struck diamond.

Crack—

A notch exploded in the blade before it instantly shattered into countless fragments.

Chen Xin was startled, and his expression immediately darkened.

Ever since becoming a Titled Douluo, it had been a long time since anyone had made him take things so seriously.

Shen Tianyu punched upward and sneered.

"Chen Xin, your sword is too girly!"
