The Evil Soul Beast on the continent had long been purified and eradicated by the ancestors of the Angel Clan. The only remaining one is probably the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, a Soul Beast related to a god and said to be cursed by an evil god.
The Soul Beast Clan had long since retreated to the Soul Beast Forest, their numbers reduced to the point where the Spirit Hall had to issue an order to prohibit the indiscriminate killing of Soul Beast, fearing that if the killing continued, the Soul Beast resource would be completely wiped out.
It can be said that the Spirit Hall no longer needs to constantly search for talent across the entire continent.
Qian Daoliu was also aware of the true strength of the Soul Beast Clan: the most powerful Soul Beast, the Black-Eyed Golden Dragon King Di Tian, Ferocious Beast slept beneath the Star Dou Great Forest. But it seemed that the one who truly balanced Di Tian was the Grand Pontiff of the Angel God.
In other words, as long as the Angel God still exists and the Angel Inheritance in the Spirit Hall, the human race will not abandon the Soul Beast Clan unless the Silver Dragon Fish awakens. And if the Silver Dragon Fish takes action, it will be beyond the power of the Douluo Plane to contend with; only the Divine Realm can intervene.
Even in later Spirit Hall Empire, where free Martial Soul no longer existed across the continent, the forces that fought each other were still the human race. Talented individuals emerged in great numbers across the continent, and the Soul Beast Clan was still firmly suppressed by the human race.
In other words, there is no need to worry about the safety of the human race. If the angel faith is to spread throughout the continent again, the Spirit Hall can simply follow Shrek's example in all aspects. The more abundant the angel faith, the stronger the Angel God, and the more stable everything will be.
Slaughter City.
Hu Liena emerged from the Hell Slaughter Arena, looking somewhat exhausted. The bloodstains and wounds on her body indicated that she had just gone through another fierce battle.
With Hu Liena's abilities, as a spirit-type Soul Master, her powerful Charm would have allowed her to thrive in the entire Slaughter City, and she wouldn't have been so exhausted. However, in order to stay ahead of Qian Xunfeng and want to brave the Hell Road with him, she sometimes couldn't suppress her killing intent properly, and her mental energy hadn't fully recovered. Upon learning that Qian Xunfeng had won another victory in the Hell Slaughter Arena, she decided to participate in the Hell Slaughter Arena again.
The stability of one's killing intent is the foundation for clearing one hundred rounds of the Hell Slaughter Arena. If one cannot stably control their killing intent, they will be killed by the aura released when the Hell Road the moment they head there.
In the original novel, Hu Liena only managed to clear the Slaughter City after a year of winning. In the following two years, she participated in the Hell Slaughter Arena frequently, completing more than eighty matches, surpassing Tang San's completion of one hundred matches faster.
Regarding his killing intent, Tang San said he was almost unable to control it, while Hu Liena's condition didn't seem serious. Although she suppressed it with Bloody Mary, she was fine after taking Tang San's antidote and stopping taking Bloody Mary.
Hell Slaughter Arena stood a dense crowd of at least two hundred people, who immediately locked onto Hu Liena the moment she stepped out.
The most dangerous time in Slaughter City is not the Hell Slaughter Arena —a deathmatch with a survival rate of less than 10%—but rather when you emerge exhausted and wounded after the Hell Slaughter Arena and are besieged by the Fallen One. This is especially true for those rising stars who have shown their talent.
The Slaughter City is divided into Inner City and Outer City. The Fallen One in the Outer City are required to contribute two cups of Bloody Mary every month, which is equivalent to a pound of blood. The food they eat is worse than pig swill, barely enough to fill their stomachs. They live worse than leeks, exploited to death.
To live in the Inner City, one must participate in the Hell Slaughter Arena. Winning once grants the right to live in the city for a year, enjoying life as one pleases, as long as one survives. This means that everyone in the Inner City is a potential enemy, and no one wants to encounter an extremely powerful being in the Hell Slaughter Arena in the future, who would naturally seize the opportunity to eliminate them while they are vulnerable.
"The Hell Messenger has appeared! She's exhausted herself today; this is the perfect opportunity! Everyone, hurry and kill her! Otherwise, next time in the Hell Slaughter Arena, we might be the ones dying!"
The group of Fallen One stared at Hu Liena, many with greed in their eyes, licking their lips. Defeating Hu Liena here would not only reduce a powerful opponent in the Hell Slaughter Arena, but if someone managed to capture Hu Liena, her beauty would be enough to give them unparalleled pleasure.
Hu Liena's eyes flashed with murderous intent, a crimson hue creeping into her beautiful pupils. Her Heavenly Fox Martial Soul activated, unleashing her Charm power. In an instant, the dozen or so Fallen One with lower spiritual strength at the forefront were Charm and manipulated by her, turning to slaughter. Hu Liena also drew her two short blades and plunged into the crowd.
Slaughter City, in an ancient castle adjacent to the Hell Slaughter Arena.
"Great King, as you commanded, a great number of Fallen One have been arranged to attack the Hell Messenger."
A curvaceous, beautiful Black-Veiled Woman knelt on one knee to report to the king of the Slaughter City.
The King of Slaughter remained seated on the bone chair. He nodded slightly and beckoned to King of Slaughter Black-Veiled Woman Black-Veiled Woman. She understood, came to his side, and lay on King of Slaughter lap, her eyes filled with seductive allure, ready to be taken.
The King of Slaughter did not make a move; his mental energy was focused on Hu Liena, who was frantically killing in front of the Hell Slaughter Arena, whose eyes were growing increasingly bloodshot and whose mind was being constantly devoured by killing intent.
"The trial in the Hell Slaughter Arena is meant to allow Soul Master to master killing intent, not to be mastered by it. The Hell Messenger is still just a young girl. She hasn't properly mastered killing intent before entering the Hell Slaughter Arena again. The moment she is completely devoured by killing intent will be the moment she completely loses her qualifications to become God of Slaughter."
The Black-Veiled Woman spoke up at the opportune moment, "In that case, that God of Slaughter will have no choice but to admit defeat."
The King of Slaughter smirked and ran his large hand down the back of the Black-Veiled Woman: "You're right."
Hell Slaughter Arena.
Hu Liena continued her frenzied killing spree. She knew all too well what would happen if she fell to the ground and fell into the hands of these Fallen One, so she spared no effort in expending her mental energy to Charm Fallen One.
As more and more corpses fell to the ground, Hu Liena's mental energy was constantly being depleted. Just as her eyes were about to turn completely scarlet, a golden light suddenly flashed before her eyes. She then felt a heavy blow to the back of her neck and lost consciousness.
As Hu Liena gradually regained consciousness, she felt her mind was incredibly clear. A sacred and radiant Soul Power enveloped her. She slowly opened her eyes and saw a very handsome man with blue-gold hair standing in front of her. Golden light shone from his hand, and brilliant golden Soul Power bathed her entire body.
Enveloped in this brilliant golden Soul Power, Hu Liena felt an unparalleled coolness in her mind. All her bad thoughts were constantly being purified. In addition to joy, her rapid heartbeat was also being calmed down, and she couldn't muster any unhealthy ideas.
Hu Liena said, "Qian Xunfeng, it was you who saved me."
