This Is What They Call a Genius? Are You Sure He's Not Just Cannon Fodder? Where's My Emperor Qingtian?

He was only 20?

Only?

That was a very fitting word... Feng Xiaodi couldn't help himself. He nearly choked to death on a mouthful of saliva!

Ozka was stunned for a long while, then asked uncertainly, "Little brother, did you say... Yu Tianheng is already 20 years old?"

"Yeah! What's wrong? A few months ago, I heard at a teahouse that Yu Tianheng had broken through to the Soul Ancestor realm! He's 20 this year! Isn't that amazing? He broke through to Soul Ancestor at 20! His Soul Power is as high as level 41!"

The boy blinked his innocent, wide eyes, his face pure and guileless.

Feng Xiaodi and Ozka were silent for a long time. They didn't even exchange a glance.

Their expressions were starting to crack!

Yu Tianheng, 20 years old, had just broken through to level 41 Soul Power. A genius? And the number one of the younger generation, no less!

The greatest genius, even?

Ozka's mouth twitched. He couldn't help but scoff, "Little brother, are you sure he's really the number one genius? Isn't he the number one piece of cannon fodder? I'm a 15-year-old, level 62 Soul Emperor! I cultivate both the Soul Master path and the Immortal Path! Even I don't dare call myself the number one of the younger generation! What the hell is Yu Tianheng?"

Whoosh!

Feng Xiaodi took a deep breath, unable to stop himself from double-checking that he'd heard correctly. "Little brother, so! Yu Tianheng really is already 20? And he only just broke through to Soul Ancestor? A few months ago, in fact! You're not lying to us, are you?"

"I'm not lying to you!"

The boy looked puzzled. He completely ignored Ozka's claim that he was a level 62 Soul Emperor at 15, assuming the man was just bragging. Then, to make himself sound more convincing, he added, "Yu Tianheng has tremendous talent! He broke through to Soul Ancestor at a young age and became a powerful Soul Ancestor! And with his Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul, he's invincible among the younger generation!"

"He can defeat everyone in the younger generation, too? Damn..." Feng Xiaodi's mouth was still twitching.

Ozka fell silent for a long, long time before asking, "So, someone who breaks through to level 40 Soul Ancestor at 20 really is the number one genius, according to you?"

"Yeah!"

Feng Xiaodi suddenly asked, "Then do you know Feng Xiaotian?"

The boy immediately replied, "I do! He's the only genius in the Tiandou Empire with Innate Full Soul Power!"

"The only one?"

Feng Xiaodi seized on that point, but didn't ask about it right away. Instead, he asked, "Then what's Feng Xiaotian's current cultivation level?"

"He's a powerful Soul Ancestor, too!"

Feng Xiaodi: "..."

Ozka asked from beside him, "How old is Feng Xiaotian?"

"Hmm... let me think. I think he's 23!"

"23?"

The expression on Feng Xiaodi's face was frighteningly calm! His heart ached as if his first love had run off with someone else.

He couldn't accept it!

Was his Doppelganger really this useless? A Four-Ring Soul Ancestor at 23? Then what did that make him, with level 89 Soul Power at 23?

"So, would you say I'm impressive?" Feng Xiaodi fell silent for a long time.

The two of them simply remained silent for a very, very long time.

Ozka led Feng Xiaodi off to one side and whispered, "Feng Xiaodi, do you think there's a possibility that Soul Masters in this world place great importance on building a solid foundation? Maybe each level of Soul Power they cultivate is several times denser than ours! Then a level 40 Soul Ancestor could beat an 80-level Soul Douluo from our world! After all, the Soul Power in their world is 30 percent denser than ours! How could they only break through to Soul Ancestor at 23? That'd be a complete joke, wouldn't it?"

Ozka still didn't want to believe it. He was desperately trying to come up with excuses for them!

Because the people of this world were too useless—so useless it was hard to believe! So useless it was suffocating!

If this was the level of this world, Ozka had the strange feeling he could single-handedly bathe the Tiandou Empire in blood!

Feng Xiaodi was silent for a long while, then looked up at the sky! He replayed everything that had happened after they crossed the World-Crossing Gate in his mind several times.

Finally!

Feng Xiaodi said gravely, "Ozka, do you think there's a possibility that the two Titled Douluo beside the Eldest Princess's Doppelganger weren't holding back at all? Maybe they really couldn't beat me! And I nearly slapped them to death with one blow!"

"How could that be?! No way!"

Ozka rejected the idea without even thinking.

Feng Xiaodi continued, "Look, Emperor Qingtian hasn't made the method for cultivating self-condensed Soul Rings public in this world yet! He hasn't distributed the cultivation techniques to ordinary people! He hasn't unified the continent! So they're weak... Is it possible we didn't pay attention in history class? Maybe we just slept through it?"

"Huh? I didn't sleep through it!" Ozka quickly denied.

Feng Xiaodi was silent for a moment, then said, "I once heard my grandfather say that before Emperor Qingtian unified the continent, the best Soul Ring Configuration was still yellow, yellow, purple, purple!"

"Uh... I'm from an ordinary family. No one ever told me about that. I don't know."

Feng Xiaodi continued, "My grandfather said that before Emperor Qingtian unified the continent, Martial Path cultivation techniques had never existed! The Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill and Wind Breathing I cultivate, as well as the Everlasting Spring Art you cultivate, were all created by Emperor Qingtian! But in this world... Emperor Qingtian hasn't made the Martial Path cultivation methods public yet!"

"Emperor Qingtian?"

As the two of them whispered, the boy's voice sounded beside them.

Feng Xiaodi and Ozka jumped. The boy had come so close, yet neither of them had noticed!

The boy asked, "Who's this Emperor Qingtian you're talking about?"

"Have you never heard of him? He's your Pope."

"Oh~" the boy murmured to himself. "But isn't the Pope's name Bibi Dong?"

"Bibi Dong?"

Feng Xiaodi froze and looked at Ozka, who had frozen too.

Ozka blurted out, "She must be the Doppelganger of Empress Bibi Xi!"

"Hmm... but how did the Empress's Doppelganger become Pope? And where's Emperor Qingtian?"

Ozka opened his mouth, then asked, "The Empress used to be Emperor Qingtian's disciple. Could Emperor Qingtian have passed the position of Pope to the Empress in this world?"

Feng Xiaodi paused, then asked, "Little brother, who was the previous Pope?"

"Shh~"

The boy hurriedly shushed them, glanced around, then lowered his voice. "Don't go asking questions like that out in the open! It's taboo! The previous Pope was killed by the Clear Sky Douluo of the Clear Sky Sect!"

"What? Emperor Qingtian was killed by the Clear Sky Douluo?"

"Impossible! How could Tang Hao possibly be a match for Emperor Qingtian? That's complete nonsense! Emperor Qingtian could kill Tang Hao with a single glance!"

The two of them were even more shocked! Their hearts lurched, and they simply couldn't believe it!

"Shh! Shh! Shh!"

The boy hurriedly tugged at them, telling them to keep quiet.

Ozka couldn't believe what he'd heard and challenged him, "Are you making this up? How could Tang Hao possibly be a match for Emperor Qingtian?"

"Shh! Keep your voices down! Everyone knows that the previous Pope led several Titled Douluo to hunt down Tang Hao, only for Tang Hao to kill him instead! How could I be making that up? You two are the ones who don't even know about this! It caused a huge stir back then! The Clear Sky Sect was even forced to seal off the mountain and disappear from the world!"

"The Clear Sky Sect sealed off the mountain? What about Lord Tang Wan?"

"Tang Wan? Who's that?"

The two of them froze again. This boy had never even heard of Tang Wan.

Ding!

Suddenly, something flashed through Ozka's mind. He realized they might have made a basic mistake! Emperor Qingtian hadn't even been called that before he unified the continent!

"Little brother, you just said you'd never heard of Emperor Qingtian?"

"That's right!"

"Then have you heard of Qian Heqing?"

The boy shook his head. "No!"

"This..."

Ozka and Feng Xiaodi exchanged a glance and hurriedly asked, "Then what was the previous Pope's name?"

"Shh~ Keep your voices down! The previous Pope's name was Qian Xunji! You really haven't heard of him?"

"Qian Xunji?"

"Qian Xunji?"

Feng Xiaodi and Ozka blurted out in unison, "The Doppelganger of Second Prince Qian Xunji!"

Ozka hurriedly asked, "Little brother, are you sure you've never heard the name Qian Heqing? He was such a powerful person... how could you have never heard of him?"

The boy shook his head in confusion.
