A special space.
"Huh? Who's the Silver Dragon King?"
Ah Rou and the other Spirit Beasts couldn't make sense of it. She looked at the Man Faced Demon Spider beside her and asked:
"You died later than I did. Have you ever heard of the Silver Dragon King?"
The Man Faced Demon Spider shook its head. "Hiss! Hiss!"
They didn't know a damn thing about it.
Ah Rou nodded too and murmured:
"By rights, Spirit Beasts at your level shouldn't be privy to my existence."
"So it goes without saying you wouldn't know about the Silver Dragon King. Even I'm not important enough..."
"A million years... So he was the master of the Star Dou Forest all along. If I'd known, I would've tried to meet him back then. Maybe I could've gotten his protection."
A cave in Holy Soul Village.
Ah Yin pondered for a moment. At that moment, she understood many things, and began to think:
"Spirit Beast Sovereign? A million-year-old Spirit Beast?"
"To bear the title of Dragon King, he must be extraordinary."
"My people once lived throughout Douluo Continent, yet none of them discovered the Silver Dragon King. It seems I wasn't strong enough."
"Was that faint power I sensed back then coming from the Silver Dragon King?"
Sun Moon Forest.
The Evil Eye Tyrant Sovereign finally reacted to what he saw.
He had always looked down on all the beings in Douluo Continent. Now he knew that Douluo Continent was the true home of hidden powerhouses!
"What a Silver Dragon King! At least a million years old... Wouldn't that make him a god among Spirit Beasts?"
"I thought my nearly eight hundred thousand years of cultivation made me invincible."
"I never imagined there were even stronger experts..."
"Lucky for me, I wasn't too arrogant. If I'd provoked someone like that, I'd have been in real trouble."
"I'd better keep a low profile from now on and see what else is going on in Douluo Continent."
Life Lake.
"Huh? Big Brother, you're not the boss?"
Titan Giant Ape scratched his big head, staring at the Light Screen in utter confusion.
Sky Azure Bull Python furrowed his brows too. "A million-year-old Spirit Beast?"
"Wait, where did this Spirit Beast Sovereign come from?"
"The Life Lake is the very heart of the Star Dou Forest. We've claimed this lake for ourselves. Is there some other hidden area we don't know about?"
"Big Brother, do you think it's in the water?" Titan Giant Ape pointed at the Life Lake.
"In the water?" Sky Azure Bull Python frowned. "I use this thing to bathe all the time."
"You're telling me a million-year-old Spirit Beast Sovereign is hiding beneath my bathwater?"
"Do you believe that yourself?"
"Why would he hide down there? To drink my bathwater? Or is he secretly in love with me?"
"That's true..." Titan Giant Ape rubbed his head again. "If he's really a big shot, he wouldn't hide beneath your bathwater. That'd be embarrassing."
"Then he must be hiding somewhere else. Anyway, he's not under this lake."
On the run.
Xiao Wu was startled too.
"What's this Silver Dragon King? Is there someone even stronger than Da Ming?"
"If I go back to the Star Dou Forest, will I still be in danger?"
"Oh, heavens! You're discriminating against rabbits!"
On the platform.
Hu Liena stared at the Light Screen. This time, she really couldn't hold back.
"Song Ye, you have to explain yourself. How did you get the answer right again?"
"Even my teacher doesn't know the name Silver Dragon King. How could you possibly know it?"
Her voice rang out so loudly that many people turned to look.
Xie Yue, Yan, and even Ju and Ghost Douluo and Bibi Dong were drawn to the commotion.
Only then did everyone realize: That was right—how did Song Ye keep getting every answer right?
Yan spoke up. "Well, would you look at that! It really is true!"
"Once or twice would be one thing, but you keep getting the answers right, Song Ye! You must've figured out the pattern, and you're keeping it to yourself!"
Song Ye looked at Yan, that sycophant, as he challenged him. He wasn't fazed in the slightest and casually replied, "So what if I figured out the pattern? What's it to you?"
"Who are you, anyway? My son? My grandson?"
"You!" Yan's anger flared at the sudden insult. "Song Ye, don't forget—you're just a team member!"
"How dare you talk to me like that?"
"I earned my place on the team through my own hard work. What's that got to do with you?" Song Ye retorted without showing him any respect.
"If you can't find the pattern, figure it out yourself. If you can't, then come hit me and see whether the Light Screen reacts!"
"You!" Yan's face darkened. He'd wanted to show off in front of Hu Liena, but he hadn't expected Song Ye, who usually kept a low profile, to be completely unafraid of him.
Didn't Song Ye know that he was one of the three members of the Golden Generation, destined to hold a lofty position in Spirit Hall?
Yan said coldly, "Fine!"
"I've never met anyone as arrogant as you!"
"Hey, you just met me today, didn't you?" Song Ye waved a hand.
He glanced at Yan and replied with disdain, "I'll say it again: We're teammates. I have no interest in competing with you."
"If you want to find the pattern, do it yourself. Don't go asking me about it!"
"Why would I tell you?"
"You've got some nerve!" Yan couldn't hold back any longer. He looked ready to summon his Martial Soul and attack Song Ye on the spot.
That was exactly why Song Ye couldn't stand Yan. The sycophant wasn't even as capable as Xie Yue, and Song Ye had disliked him from the start.
But just then, Bibi Dong snapped, "Enough!"
"Yan, the Light Screen has already said that no contestant may harm another during the game!"
"If Song Ye has a clever idea of his own, that's none of your concern!"
With that, Bibi Dong regarded Song Ye thoughtfully and asked:
"Song Ye, did you guess the name Silver Dragon King because the Silver Dragon King kept answering questions correctly earlier?"
Song Ye paused slightly at her question. He hadn't expected Bibi Dong to figure that out.
He simply went along with it and explained, "More or less."
"Names like Silver Dragon King appeared in the previous answers several times, which showed that these beings were unusually knowledgeable—not ordinary Soul Masters or Spirit Beasts."
"And Silver Dragon King sounded like the name of a Spirit Beast, so I went with that answer."
Bibi Dong nodded, looking rather pleased.
"You pay close attention to details. It seems that from now on, we'll need to keep an eye on every bit of information when we answer."
"Yan, get back in line!"
"If you can't think straight, at least put in the effort! This isn't the time for you to throw your weight around!"
"Well..." Yan was still somewhat unwilling to back down, but he didn't dare defy Bibi Dong. In the end, he cupped his hands. "Yes, Pope!"
"I'll do my best to come up with the answers!"
With that little incident over, Song Ye paid it no mind. After all, without Bibi Dong stepping in, he still wouldn't have been hurt.
Hu Liena, however, was still thinking about it. She stared intently at Song Ye, unable to help growing deeply interested in him.
"Looks like this guy really is clever."
"He noticed even such a tiny detail, and he's quite talented too."
"Song Ye... How did I never notice him before?"
In fact, Hu Liena and the others had never thought much of any of their peers.
Just as the argument ended, the next question appeared in the sky.
Within the Light Screen.
A new question appeared!
[Sun Moon Forest is the largest Spirit Beast forest on Sun Moon Continent! Like the Star Dou Forest, it is home to a large number of Spirit Beasts!]
[However, because of its different location, Sun Moon Forest is also home to many Spirit Beasts that do not exist on Douluo Continent! Different forests have different advantages!]
[Question: What is the name of the ruler of Sun Moon Forest?]
