The next morning, Demon Bear Douluo arrived to test Yan on Bibi Dong’s orders, and their fight began with Demon Bear revealing his Martial Soul Avatar.

• Yan judged that Tang Hao, Chen Xin, and Bibi Dong posed no immediate threat and decided to stop pretending after Yu Xiaogang’s insults.

• Yan declined time to prepare and agreed to begin the test immediately.
• Demon Bear Douluo summoned his nine Soul Rings and transformed into his Blood Demon Berserk Bear Martial Soul Avatar.

Demon Bear Douluo tested Yan with his Martial Soul Avatar, then intensified the fight with two strength-enhancing soul skills. Yan met his overwhelming assault with his physique and dark gold flames, holding his ground as Demon Bear Douluo’s strength advantage failed to break through his defenses.

• Demon Bear Douluo activated his Martial Soul Avatar and struck Yan, who blocked the blow with a dark gold-flamed punch without summoning his Martial Soul.

• Demon Bear Douluo recovered at the training-ground railing and realized that Yan had beaten him through physical strength alone.

Yan reflected on defeating Demon Bear Douluo and assessed how his strength compared with the continent’s strongest fighters. Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan and Ghost Douluo Gui Mei left to report the result to Bibi Dong, while Yue Guan wondered why Yan had grown distant from Spirit Hall’s leaders.

• Yan concluded that his standard combat strength surpassed ordinary level ninety-five Title Douluo and could contend with level ninety-six experts, though he remained weaker than the continent’s highest-level fighters.
• Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan and Ghost Douluo Gui Mei were shocked that Yan had defeated Demon Bear Douluo head-on.
• Yue Guan and Gui Mei agreed that neither could defeat Yan alone and that even their Martial Soul Fusion Skill might not be enough to stop him.
• Gui Mei said they needed to report the battle to Bibi Dong, and he and Yue Guan headed toward Pope Palace.
• Yue Guan wondered whether Yan’s distance from Bibi Dong and the others came from being denied the status and future promise given to Hu Liena.

• Yue Guan reflected that Yan’s actions might stem from dissatisfaction with Bibi Dong’s treatment of Yu Xiaogang and believed Spirit Hall could still win Yan back.
• Yue Guan and Gui Mei arrived at Pope Palace and reported that Demon Bear Douluo had lost to Yan.
• Bibi Dong concluded Yan’s strength came from extraordinary physical talent rather than a god’s inheritance, and thought she could suppress him after inheriting the Rakshasa Godhood.
• Yue Guan urged Bibi Dong to handle the Yu Xiaogang matter fairly, compensate Yan, and offer him status and authority.
• Bibi Dong rebuked Yue Guan and called Yan arrogant, untamable, and guilty of defying her and concealing his strength.

• Yue Guan warned that Yan’s strength could cause serious trouble and draw the Grand Elder’s attention if he resisted the order.
