"Grandmaster, why have you stopped talking?"

Zhao Wuji scratched his head in confusion.

Doubt flashed in the eyes of Ma Hongjun and Dai Mubai, and they whispered to each other:

"Does this Grandmaster really know about the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well? Could he be a total fraud?"

Yu Xiaogang heard these words clearly and was instantly overcome with shame and anger:

"Of course I know! Tang San, you tell them for me!"

He had no idea, so he hurriedly pushed the matter back onto Tang San.

Since things had reached this point, Tang San had no choice but to speak up helplessly and reveal a portion of the information.

He explained the immortal herbs that might be nurtured by the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, as well as their effects.

"Holy crap, that's so badass?!"

Upon hearing that the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower might solve his evil fire, Ma Hongjun was incredibly tempted.

Hearing that the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum might strengthen his physique, Dai Mubai was equally moved.

Even Yu Xiaogang, upon hearing the effects of these immortal herbs, was no exception to the temptation.

With such powerful and miraculous immortal herbs, surely one of them could help him break through his level 30 bottleneck!

"Sigh, what a pity."

Only Zhao Wuji shook his head, his words cutting through everyone's thoughts:

"All the major powers are surely rushing to seize them right now; it won't be our turn at all."

Hearing this, everyone sighed, including Tang San.

It felt as if the treasures that should have belonged to them were being snatched away, leaving them filled with unwillingness.

"Heh, I, the Grandmaster, will definitely get my hands on one!"

Yu Xiaogang secretly swore to himself, and he couldn't help but think of Martial Soul Hall.

Martial Soul Hall would certainly be able to obtain them, so he would go and see Bibi Dong when the time came.

That woman used to be so easy to deceive; he believed that with a few more tricks, it wouldn't be difficult to swindle an immortal herb out of her!

Not far away, Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Wu heard their entire conversation.

They dared not dream of the immortal herbs, but they felt increasingly dissatisfied with Yu Xiaogang and Tang San.

Just a moment ago, it was clear that Yu Xiaogang didn't know anything, and he relied entirely on Tang San—who had learned the information from who knows where—to cover for him.

"Hmph, what kind of Grandmaster? He's clearly just an ignorant clown!"

Zhu Zhuqing's dissatisfaction with him had reached its peak, and she couldn't help but whisper a rebuke:

"Ning Rongrong was right before; this clown Yu Xiaogang's martial soul theoretical knowledge is very likely plagiarized!"

Listening to Zhu Zhuqing's words beside her, disgust also welled up in Xiao Wu's eyes as she looked at Tang San.

Tang San had actually gone against his conscience to help Yu Xiaogang cover up his lie; he was truly too hypocritical!

The kindness he had shown her in the past was very likely an act as well! Men, indeed, none of them could be trusted!

A thought of leaving began to grow in Xiao Wu's heart; she no longer wanted to stay by the side of the hypocritical Tang San.

Heaven Dou Empire, Heaven Dou City Imperial Palace.

"The Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well!"

Emperor Xue Ye sat up abruptly in shock and said urgently:

"If such a treasure basin could be obtained by our Heaven Dou, it would surely allow our Heaven Dou to soar to the heavens! Who is willing to lead a team to search for it immediately?!"

As his voice fell, the great hall was deathly silent. The civil and military officials remained mute, and no one was willing to step forward.

The Soul Beast Forest was already fraught with danger, and now that all soul beasts had their cultivation increased by a hundred years due to the rewards, going there was no different from seeking death.

Just then, a crisp yet firm voice rang out:

"Father Emperor, this son is willing to lead the team!"

Everyone looked toward the source of the sound and saw Xue Qinghe, who was actually Qian Renxue in disguise, step forward.

A trace of worry appeared in the eyes of Emperor Xue Ye:

"Qinghe, this matter is perilous, and as the Crown Prince of the empire..."

Qian Renxue bowed slightly, her tone resolute:

"Father Emperor, as the Crown Prince of the empire, I should all the more share the burdens of the empire. Please grant me your permission!"

Emperor Xue Ye pondered for a moment before finally nodding solemnly:

"Good, you are worthy of being my son! Then you shall lead the empire's most elite soul master legion to go!"

"Once Marshal Ge Long finishes absorbing his spirit bone, I will send him to reinforce you immediately to lend you a helping hand!"

He would let Marshal Ge Long follow up later; Emperor Xue Ye believed there would be no accidents.

"Thank you, Father Emperor. Your son will certainly do his utmost!"

Qian Renxue bowed respectfully and departed, a cold glint flashing in the depths of her eyes.

She knew full well that Martial Soul Hall had certainly already taken action, and in all likelihood, they would strike first.

Her own trip was merely to put on a show before Emperor Xue Ye and the officials.

It was just a way to gauge the movements of other factions and pave the way for her own plans.

Star Luo Empire, Star Luo City Imperial Palace.

The situation here was the exact opposite of the other factions.

"Ah! This infuriates me!!"

Emperor Dai Xiaotian of Star Luo slammed his dragon throne, shouting in rage:

"Not only does Heaven Dou possess a divine object on the list, but a peerless treasure basin has also appeared in the spirit beast forest within their borders. Star Luo is ten thousand miles away from Heaven Dou; it is difficult to cross borders to contend for it!"

The civil and military officials in the hall knelt one after another, helpless to offer a solution.

Dai Weisi furrowed his brows, his expression equally grim, unable to think of a countermeasure either.

"Your Majesty, calm your temper."

Just then, Empress Zhu Qingyue returned after completing her spirit bone absorption, speaking unhurriedly:

"The factions within Heaven Dou are complex; they will certainly all head there to search. With many wolves and little meat, conflict is bound to break out between them."

"In the end, only one side will benefit while many others suffer losses in vitality. This may not necessarily be a disadvantage for us; we can simply sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight."

Dai Xiaotian looked over, stunned for a moment, before rising in excitement:

"Yue'er, after absorbing the spirit bone, you have also broken through to level ninety!"

Zhu Qingyue curled her lips into a smile and nodded heavily.

"Good, very good!"

The gloom in Dai Xiaotian's heart was swept away, and he laughed loudly:

"Let's go, we shall immediately set off to hunt for a spirit ring! Once we become true Title Douluo, even if Heaven Dou obtains the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, so what? They will still be trampled ruthlessly beneath our Martial Soul Fusion Skill!"

Seeing this, the civil and military officials kowtowed one after another, their shouts echoing throughout the imperial palace:

"His Majesty speaks the truth! Our Star Luo Empire will surely flatten the Heaven Dou Empire in the future and unify the Douluo Continent!"

With the Sunset Forest appearing on the list, it was not just human factions that were stirred.

At this moment, the major spirit beast factions were also shaken, falling into a state of boiling agitation.

If a spirit beast forest like the Sunset Forest could make the list, those of even greater scale would certainly not be absent!

Star Dou Forest, Life Lake.

"Big Brother, what rank do you think our Star Dou Forest will place?"

"If we make the list, you, as the most powerful spirit beast in our Star Dou, will surely be the representative!"

Titan Giant Ape looked at Sky Azure Bull Python with some excitement.

"Second Brother, I don't know, but I am very much looking forward to it!"

Sky Azure Bull Python shook his head and replied, his eyes flashing with a burning light.

If they could rank at the top and receive powerful heaven-sent rewards, why fear the humans of the outside world?

The light in Titan Giant Ape's eyes was also very intense, but he suddenly sighed:

"Sigh, I wonder how Xiao Wu is doing out there. If she hadn't transformed and left, she would have been our Star Dou representative!"

It was just a pity that these two confident big guys did not know something.

Hidden beneath the Life Lake was a small world composed of divine power.

And residing within it were terrifying existences far more powerful than them.

Inside the small world stood a silver-white crystal palace.

The Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena, who had been asleep for who knows how many years, awakened at this moment.

A pair of beautiful purple eyes looked through space at the Sky Screen outside, murmuring:

"This Sky Screen, even the five God Kings could not create it; it is truly inconceivable."

"Moreover, to think that the Fire Dragon King and the Ice Dragon King both fell on the Douluo Continent, and their remains even formed such a treasure basin."

Before her, the six great fierce beasts led by Di Tian knelt on one knee.

Di Tian spoke first:

"Master, the many immortal-grade herbs spawned by that treasure basin might be of some help to the recovery of your injuries. Does the Master require your subordinate to head there immediately to retrieve them?!"
