Background / History
The Comparison Sky Screen descended over the Black World and White World, linking the two parallel Douluo worlds. It selected Black World Tang San—announced as the future Sea God and Asura God—and White World Tang Chuan—future God of Life and God of Destruction—as its first comparison subjects. 1
Its broadcasts expose each subject’s past, future, inner thoughts, cultivation, battles, and major decisions to viewers across both worlds. The first presentations included Tang San’s Tang Sect past and Tang Chuan’s former life in a modern world. 3 4 5
After each comparison stage, it opens a voting period, calculates approval percentages across the two worlds, declares a winner, and awards the victor. Tang Chuan repeatedly wins these votes by overwhelming margins, including 199% to 1% in the ninth-stage comparison. 54 157 262 364
Following the sixth-stage comparison, the Sky Screen directly asked Tang Chuan for advice on features that could expand its influence. 120 It later added a bullet-screen function through which viewers could send messages and tip comments during broadcasts. 131
The tenth-stage comparison concluded after showing Tang Chuan’s attainment of the Life and Destruction god positions, after which the Sky Screen opened voting and offered three selections from the original future footage as a reward. 439 440 It subsequently began the eleventh-stage comparison, continuing to compare Tang San and Tang Chuan. 445
During the eleventh-stage broadcast, the Sky Screen’s initial designation of Tang San as both Sea God and Asura God was called into question when its footage showed Xiao Wu merging with the Asura Divine Sword and apparently receiving the Asura Nine Trials. Xiao Wu received no notification or inheritance mark, leaving viewers uncertain whether the Sky Screen’s earlier information was erroneous or whether the inheritance operated differently. 447
The eleventh-stage comparison later concluded and entered voting after its White World footage showed Tang Chuan avenging the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect by killing Bibi Dong. 475 The Sky Screen then proceeded to the twelfth-stage comparison; Black World Tang San’s twelfth-stage footage ended before the broadcast transitioned to White World Tang Chuan’s portion. 479 503
The White World’s twelfth-stage footage followed the continent’s political restructuring, the rise of Qingdi Palace, and Tang Chuan’s promotion of technological and soul-tool development. The stage ended with the birth of Wisdom Forest, and the subsequent vote tally showed a further decline in Tang San’s vote share. 512 513 525
The thirteenth-stage comparison began after another seven-day interval. It retained Tang San and Tang Chuan as its subjects but expanded the footage to their influence ten thousand years later, including Tang San’s God Realm activities and his manipulation of Tang Wutong and Huo Yuhao’s circumstances. 528 529 532 535
During this stage, the Sky Screen granted Tang Chuan permission to authorize a projection into the Peerless Tang Sect era, ten thousand years after the Black World’s original period. With his agreement, it appeared over both the Douluo and Sun Moon Continents, introduced their inhabitants to the parallel-world comparison, and began showing the thirteenth-stage footage. 535 536
The screens subsequently synchronized across the Black World, White World, Peerless Tang Sect Douluo Continent, and Peerless Tang Sect God Realm. This announced “three realms” connection upgraded the bullet-comment system into a Chat Room, allowing eligible viewers separated by worlds, eras, and realms to communicate directly. 542
After the Black World’s thirteenth-stage segment ended, the broadcast switched to the White World ten thousand years later. Its continuing footage follows Tang Chuan’s son Tang Wutian, Huo Yuhao’s female counterpart Huo Yutong, and their experiences at Qingdi Soul Master Academy, while also revealing alternate futures for figures such as Jiang Nannan and Xiao Xiao. 552 561 571 572 583 584
Functions
Cross-World Comparison
The Sky Screen selects counterparts from the Black and White Worlds and plays their lives in alternating comparison segments. Its announced subjects remain Tang San and Tang Chuan throughout the documented stages. 1 58 369 445 479 528
- Broadcasts events from both worlds to humans and sentient soul beasts. 58
- Reveals past events, future developments, private thoughts, and hidden identities. 3 166
- Switches playback between the two comparison subjects after a segment concludes. 27 384 503 552
- Divides the comparison into numbered stages, with at least thirteen stages documented. 8 369 445 479 528
- Shows the original future that would have occurred without the Sky Screen’s descent, rather than simply following the altered present created by its broadcasts and rewards. Tang Chuan identifies this distinction, and other viewers likewise recognize that their present circumstances have diverged from the footage. 53 102 143 237
- Commonly announces the next stage for the same time seven days later. This schedule is documented after the first and second stages and continues in later comparisons. 8 17 57 131 445 479 528
- Extends its comparison beyond the subjects’ immediate lives to their descendants, institutions, and the societies shaped by their actions ten thousand years later. 529 552 561 571 583
- Reveals counterparts whose sex and personal circumstances differ between worlds, including Huo Yuhao’s White World counterpart Huo Yutong and the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm’s counterpart, who calls herself “Dream Sister.” 561 584
Voting and Rewards
At the end of a completed stage, the Sky Screen begins a voting period and distributes rewards to the winner. 120
| Stage | Winner | Vote result | Documented reward |

| Seventh stage | Tang Chuan | 197% | Custom Secret Realm; Small Zhou Tian Star Formation 157 |
| Eighth stage | Tang Chuan | 197% to 3% | Three items of Tang Chuan’s choice from the original future 262 |
| Ninth stage | Tang Chuan | 199% to 1% | Three Blank God Positions 364 |
| Tenth stage | Tang Chuan | Not stated | Three selections from the original future footage, including the Life God Position, Destruction God Position, and Hundred-Thousand-Year Dark Demon Evil God Tiger Soul Ring 439 440 |
| Eleventh stage | Not stated | Voting opened | Not stated 475 |
| Twelfth stage | Not stated | Tang San’s vote share decreased further; exact percentages not stated | Not stated 525 |
- Votes must be cast according to the voter’s true feelings; the Sky Screen warns that dishonest voting will be punished. 5 16
- Original-future selection rewards can include immortal herbs, spirit rings, spirit bones, and self-created soul skills from footage already shown. Tang Chuan’s tenth-stage choices establish that divine positions are also eligible. 440
- The three Blank God Positions awarded after the ninth stage can be filled using 20% of the faith normally required for the corresponding god position. 365
- Its rewards also include cultivation resources and training facilities. Tang Chuan uses the rewarded Martial Practice Field for simulated cultivation, martial practice, and later deduction of an Essence-Qi-Spirit Unity Secret Art. 43 528
Communication Features
The Sky Screen introduced a bullet-screen system during the seventh-stage comparison. 131
- Allows viewers in both worlds to send visible messages during broadcasts. 131
- Limits ordinary bullet-comment access to Soul Saints and above, while parties involved in the broadcast may also send comments. 131
- Supports tipped comments; everyone in the Black and White Worlds is permitted to reward bullet comments. 131
- Became a venue for mass public reactions, including widespread condemnation of Tang San after footage of his killings in Spirit Hall Empire cities. 370
- Enables counterparts to address and argue with one another publicly, as demonstrated by the two Hu Lienas’ dispute over their encounters with the comparison subjects. 225
- Upgrades the bullet-comment system into a Chat Room after linking the Black World, White World, and Peerless Tang Sect world, including the latter’s God Realm. 542
- Allows eligible Chat Room participants to send messages through their thoughts. Posting eligibility includes viewers above the Spirit Saint level, people with significant world influence, and characters featured in the comparison footage. 542
- Supports sending and accepting video files through the Chat Room. Tang Ya forwards earlier comparison footage to Bei Bei, who receives an acceptance notification and watches the first and second stages with her. 545
The Chat Room immediately becomes a means of investigating the future and challenging accepted history. Qian Daoliu asks whether Spirit Hall still exists, Ning Fengzhi inquires about his sect’s later development, and Ah Yin warns her future counterpart about Tang Hao and Tang San. Her accusations reach major Peerless Tang Sect-era factions directly rather than remaining confined to the original two worlds. 542
Cross-Era Projection and Synchronization
The Sky Screen can project into the Peerless Tang Sect world, a setting ten thousand years after the Black World’s original period. It grants Tang Chuan permission to authorize this projection, and he agrees in order to expose Tang San’s conduct to later-era viewers. 535 536
- Projects over both the Douluo and Sun Moon Continents. 536
- Transmits explanatory knowledge about parallel worlds, including the White World’s replacement of Tang San with Tang Chuan and their different divine inheritances. 536
- Introduces the later-era audience to the ongoing comparison at the thirteenth stage rather than automatically replaying all earlier stages. Tang Ya and Bei Bei initially regret missing Tang San’s earlier rise. 536
- Synchronizes announcements and upgrades across the original Black and White Worlds and the Peerless Tang Sect world’s mortal continent and God Realm. 542
- Makes earlier stages accessible separately through shared Chat Room video files. 545

Known Characteristics
- Appears as a vast golden screen covering the sky and described as blotting out the sun without affecting the Douluo Continent. 19 46
- Uses golden text and a majestic, cold mechanical voice for announcements. 58 157
- Can reveal information unavailable to ordinary viewers, including future outcomes, divine inheritances, concealed thoughts, and events in distant locations. 166 298 384
- Its broadcasts alter present-day choices: factions pursue Tang Chuan, adapt to revealed futures, and seek to prevent disasters shown in comparison footage. 54 279 369
- It recognizes audience participation as a source of influence and sought Tang Chuan’s input on expanding its features. 120
- Its rewards can reproduce items and inheritances shown in the original-future footage, including god positions and hundred-thousand-year soul rings. 440
- Its announced information can create apparent contradictions requiring further clarification, as seen in the discrepancy between Tang San’s stated Asura God status and Xiao Wu’s apparent Asura Nine Trials. 445 447
- Its announcements can sound directly in the minds of humans and intelligent soul beasts, and it can transmit information explaining newly introduced features. 40 43 131
- The original-future footage is not an unchangeable prediction of the present. Viewers can use its revelations to avoid former decisions, locate resources, or pursue different cultivation paths. 102 266 404 410
- Its later-era projection produces no detectable soul-power, mental-power, or illusion-technique signature for the observing experts, leading many to interpret it as a divine miracle. 536
- Its coverage of intimate relationships does not necessarily include explicit details; Qian Renxue and Tang Chuan’s relationship is revealed through their subsequent conversation rather than a detailed depiction of their encounter. 474
- Viewers sometimes dispute its revelations. Yu Xiaogang claims that the broadcast of his inner thoughts is fabricated, while Tang San denounces footage of his treatment of Tang Wutong as slander. 101 532
