Douluo: Return of the Killing Star, Starting with a Reckoning for Bibi Dong

She could not swallow this humiliation no matter what.

Watching the back of Qian Xun'an, she swore to herself, "Qian Xun'an, one day, I will make you end up just like your older brother. The humiliation I have suffered, I will make you pay back a hundred, a thousand, ten thousand times over!"

Returning to the Pope Hall, the injuries on Bibi Dong's face quickly healed.

"Go and investigate! I want to know everything about Qian Xun'an's childhood! I want to know all of his abilities!" Bibi Dong commanded in a rage.

Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo immediately accepted the order.

Within Martial Soul Hall, records of Qian Xun'an's childhood still existed. Soon, Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo brought the files regarding Qian Xun'an before he turned ten to Bibi Dong.

At this moment, Bibi Dong opened the records. As she read through them, an expression of utter shock appeared in her eyes.

Qian Xun'an: Son of the 132nd Pope of Martial Soul Hall, Qian Daoliu.

Born with celestial phenomena, he was extraordinary from a young age and possessed immense strength.

At age six, he awakened the Angel Martial Soul with innate full soul power of level 30, an unprecedented genius in the history of Martial Soul Hall.

Seeing this, Bibi Dong could not help but feel puzzled: "The Angel Martial Soul is a god-level martial soul; it should only be possible to have innate level 20 soul power. How could it be level 30?"

Bibi Dong continued to read.

The record stated:

Innate level 30 soul power sparked confusion among everyone. Afterward, Qian Xun'an awakened a second martial soul—the Dark Angel!

Upon seeing this, an expression of extreme horror appeared in Bibi Dong's eyes as she muttered, "This Qian Xun'an is actually... a Twin Martial Souls user!"

Bibi Dong was incredibly shocked. She found it hard to believe that besides the Angel Martial Soul, this Qian Xun'an also possessed a Dark Angel Martial Soul. In other words, this Qian Xun'an was a user of Twin Martial Souls!

She had not expected Qian Xun'an to hide his strength so deeply, actually possessing two martial souls.

Bibi Dong continued reading.

The record then stated:

In the same year, Qian Xun'an obtained three soul rings in succession, becoming a Soul Elder.

He became a Soul Ancestor at age seven.

He became a Soul King at age eight.

He became a Soul Emperor at age nine.

By age ten, he had reached the peak of the Soul Emperor realm, surpassing his older brother, Qian Xunji.

At this point, Bibi Dong was deeply shaken as she stared at the record.

"He reached the peak of the Soul Emperor realm at ten years old?"

"No wonder his current strength is so terrifying."

Bibi Dong felt immense shock in her heart and secretly thought to herself: "It seems that if I want to defeat this Qian Xun'an, I must inherit the position of the Rakshasa God as soon as possible."

Although Bibi Dong was filled with hatred for Qian Xun'an, she was currently powerless against him. Her only option now was to endure; once she became a god, she would definitely send this Qian Xun'an to hell!

Inside Martial Soul Hall.

In a building located in the southwest.

This building was magnificent, shimmering with golden light everywhere.

A plaque hung above the lintel, engraved with three large characters.

Judgment Hall!

Inside the Judgment Hall, Qian Xun'an sat in the main seat.

Just then, a Soul Douluo walked into the hall and immediately said, "Greetings, Hall Master."

Qian Xun'an calmly raised his hand and asked, "The information I asked you to investigate—did you find it?"

The Soul Douluo shook his head and said, "Hall Master, we went to the Library of Martial Soul Hall to check, but all the records regarding the Pope's injury from back then have disappeared."

Upon hearing this, an expression of surprise appeared on Qian Xun'an's face.

"They all disappeared?"

The Soul Douluo hurriedly added, "That is correct. When we went to retrieve the files, we discovered that those records had vanished into thin air. We do not know where they went."

Qian Xun'an pondered for a moment and muttered, "There are not many people in Martial Soul Hall who have the authority to move files from the Library. Aside from the seven Elders, I fear only the Pope, Bibi Dong, could do this."

Qian Xun'an knew that even the elders of Martial Soul Hall were not qualified to take files from the library at will.

If they wanted to take files, they would need to report it.

Unless they were people with immense power, such as Bibi Dong or his father, Qian Daoliu.

"Do you think that by taking the files, I won't be able to find out?"

"The more you do this, the more it proves that my brother's death was not so simple. It seems this Bibi Dong... still has things to hide."

Qian Xun'an continued.

At this moment, the Soul Douluo said, "Hall Master, we have only managed to find this information; you may use it for reference!"

Qian Xun'an nodded slightly and immediately began to examine the documents.

As Qian Xun'an looked through them, he found that the information was all trivial and revealed nothing of significance.

Just as Qian Xun'an was about to give up, he suddenly spotted a strange book.

The title of the book was Ten Core Competencies of Martial Soul.

Qian Xun'an began to read through the book.

Ten Core Competencies of Martial Soul, Author: Yu Xiaogang.

I, Yu Xiaogang, Elder of Martial Soul Hall, have spent thirty years researching martial souls and have finally developed these Ten Core Competencies of Martial Soul.

These Ten Core Competencies of Martial Soul were all created through my original experiments.

All martial soul cultivation on the Douluo Continent is inseparable from these Ten Core Competencies of Martial Soul.

It can be said that as long as one understands my Ten Core Competencies of Martial Soul, one can stay one step ahead of others on the path of soul master cultivation.

Below are my Ten Core Competencies of Martial Soul.

One, the level of Innate Soul Power is directly proportional to the strength of the martial soul.

On the Douluo Continent, every person is born with the potential to become a soul master. To become a soul master, soul power is essential; without soul power, a person will never be able to become a soul master in their lifetime.

In addition to becoming a soul master, everyone also possesses a martial soul, and this so-called martial soul is actually related to soul power. The higher your Innate Soul Power, the stronger the martial soul you possess; conversely, the weaker your martial soul will be.

Two, there is no such thing as a trash martial soul, only soul masters who do not know how to cultivate.

Three, martial souls only consist of tool martial souls and beast martial souls; there are no others.

On the Douluo Continent, every soul master has a type of martial soul, and martial souls are divided into two categories: one is the tool martial soul, and the other is the beast martial soul. Aside from these, no third type of martial soul exists.

Four, tool martial souls mostly focus on support, while beast martial souls mostly focus on attack.

Five, every soul master has their own direction of development.

After every soul master obtains their own martial soul, they actually have their own development paths, such as Power Attack type, Agility Attack type, Support type, Food type, Control type, etc.

Six...

Seven...

Ten...

Qian Xun'an looked at these Ten Core Competencies of Martial Soul, most of which he had learned since childhood; they were all recorded in the books within Martial Soul Hall.

There were also some that were clearly incorrect, such as the second point: there are no trash martial souls, only trash soul masters.

One must know that on the Douluo Continent, everyone can awaken soul power, but many people simply cannot cultivate and are unable to become soul masters.

If this point were correct, would there still be commoners on the Douluo Continent?

Furthermore, regarding the claim that there are only beast martial souls and tool martial souls, Qian Xun'an had once seen in the books of Martial Soul Hall that besides these two types, there were also Body Martial Souls.

A Body Martial Soul uses one's own organs as the martial soul, and such Body Martial Souls have existed since ancient times.

It seems this fellow named Yu Xiaogang hasn't even read all the books.

And that fourth point is also wrong; whether a martial soul focuses on attack or defense is determined by the characteristics of the martial soul itself, not because a tool martial soul is inherently for defense or a beast martial soul is for attack.

"This Yu Xiaogang is likely nothing but a fraud!" Qian Xun'an muttered to himself.

Immediately, he looked at the Soul Douluo under his command and asked, "Who is this Yu Xiaogang?"

At this, the Soul Douluo looked at Qian Xun'an and said, "Reporting to the Hall Master, this Yu Xiaogang was once an Elder of our Martial Soul Hall."

"Was once... and what about now?" Qian Xun'an asked.

The Soul Douluo replied, "He has already left our Martial Soul Hall, and his current whereabouts are unknown."
