Many bookstores in Heaven Dou City had already been completely emptied.
Blue Tyrant Academy had sent many people out to buy books.
They bought every kind of book they could find.
Many other soul master forces and academies shared the same idea.
They were all preparing for the upcoming Sky Screen Q&A.
On Ye Mu's side, after learning that he was a God Level powerhouse, Qian Renxue had indeed become much more obedient.
At the very least, no more Spirit Hall spies had come around.
And Spirit Hall seemed to have learned some information as well.
They no longer dared to send anyone!
Still, a few other foolhardy factions continued sending people to Moonlight Pavilion.
Because Xue Ke was there!
Everyone wanted a Divine Tool and wanted to see just how powerful it was.
However, when they arrived near Moonlight Pavilion,
they discovered that Heavy Cavalry from the Heaven Dou Imperial Family were stationed there.
There were also several fairly powerful soul masters keeping watch around Moonlight Pavilion.
Clearly, breaking in would not be easy.
Several days passed in the blink of an eye.
According to the Sky Screen's schedule, today should have been the day it appeared again.
Inside a private room at Moonlight Pavilion, Tang Yuehua had instructed people to prepare a lavish table of food early on.
The singers and dancers had already entered the private room.
Ye Mu leisurely enjoyed the food, while Xue Ke rested her chin in both hands, looking somewhat bored.
"Mr. Ye, the Sky Screen should be appearing soon, right?"
Tang Yuehua looked outside.
Heaven Dou City had been rife with undercurrents lately.
In particular, many unfamiliar soul masters had appeared near Moonlight Pavilion.
She had already noticed something was amiss.
"More or less."
Ye Mu remained calm and did not care about the Sky Screen's rewards at all.
Wouldn't it be better to use that spare time to have a few more bites of delicious food?
As they spoke, someone entered from outside the door.
"Xue Qinghe pays his respects to Master Ye."
The voice was very familiar!
When they turned to look, it was Qian Renxue disguised as Xue Qinghe.
Tang Yuehua hurriedly rose when she saw the visitor.
"Your Highness the First Prince, why have you come?"
"Teacher Tang, I came to visit Master Ye and check on my little sister while I was at it."
"Big Brother, hurry and sit down."
Xue Ke did not notice anything wrong and hurriedly welcomed him.
Tang Yuehua, however, found it somewhat strange.
The First Prince was a deeply calculating person.
His visit could not possibly be so simple.
Yet she did not ask.
Commoners should not meddle in the affairs of the imperial family.
Lest they bring unnecessary trouble upon themselves.
Ye Mu raised his eyes and glanced at Qian Renxue.
This girl was quite bold. She actually dared to appear before him again.
Wasn't she afraid he would kill her?
Qian Renxue sat opposite Ye Mu and smiled. "My little sister said that Master Ye is exceptionally learned. You answered the previous questions correctly, so I came today to seek your guidance."
She had come for the Sky Screen?
Her timing was rather precise.
And she had plenty of nerve.
"I was just talking casually."
Ye Mu did not care in the slightest.
Trying to get something out of him?
It would not be that easy!
He could not be bothered with the rotten affairs between Spirit Hall and the Heaven Dou Empire.
Whether Spirit Hall won in the end or the Heaven Dou Empire's side prevailed,
it had nothing to do with him.
After all, he had long been used to an easygoing life.
The changing of days and nights, the rise and fall of imperial power—none of it would affect him.
Qian Renxue nodded slightly.
She guessed that Ye Mu might be wary of her or did not trust her.
But that did not matter.
She had come today for two reasons: the Sky Screen and a test.
From the looks of things, Xue Ke still did not know her true identity.
In other words, Ye Mu had not revealed her identity.
She could remain in the Heaven Dou Empire and continue with her plans.
Perhaps Ye Mu truly did not wish to involve himself in the affairs of Spirit Hall and the Heaven Dou Empire.
For her, that was already the best possible outcome.
After sitting in the private room for a while, suddenly,
winds and clouds churned in the skies ten thousand miles above, and the heavens shook.
A golden Sky Screen stretched across heaven and earth.
A holy, majestic voice rang throughout the entire Douluo World.
[Sky Screen Q&A Round Two begins. Those who answer correctly will be rewarded!]
The Sky Screen Q&A had descended once more!
Qian Renxue and the others perked up.
It had finally arrived!
For the first time, seven days had felt so long.
Now that the Sky Screen had descended again, everyone had a chance to become a respondent.
Everyone had a chance to receive rewards!
Everyone looked toward the sky outside.
The golden scroll spanned heaven and earth, its holy aura making it impossible for anyone to feel the slightest urge to resist.
Ye Mu frowned slightly.
He felt that the Sky Screen's energy seemed to have strengthened considerably, becoming more vast than when it first appeared.
Was it an illusion?
"I wonder what the question will be this time?"
Qian Renxue clenched her fists.
Once someone had tasted the benefits, it was truly easy to become addicted!
But risks and opportunities existed side by side.
If one answered incorrectly, the punishment would also be terrifying.
Dai Mubai, Tang San, and Yu Xiaogang.
The fates of those three had already explained everything.
The Sky Screen's punishments were no joke.
Qian Renxue harbored intense killing intent toward Yu Xiaogang.
Because he was Bibi Dong's lover.
What had happened back then might have been related to Yu Xiaogang!
In every corner of Douluo Continent,
everyone raised their heads and stared at the Sky Screen.
Deep within Star Dou Great Forest and in the Far North,
those terrifying ferocious beasts were also watching the Sky Screen.
Rewards!
If soul beasts obtained rewards, they might directly receive a Divinity.
Or perhaps their terrifying cultivation would be directly increased.
Just like the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King back then.
Even though the respondent had answered incorrectly, he had received a Divinity, and his cultivation had increased by another hundred thousand years.
Who could resist such rewards?
It could be said that as long as one became the correct answer among the options, one could obtain a reward!
What would the first question of the Sky Screen's second round of Q&A be?
The eyes of all Douluo Continent focused upon it in great anticipation.
With the appearance of the Sky Screen Scroll, the higher-ups of some academies had already taken up residence in their libraries.
They had even prepared many assistants to consult all kinds of books at any moment.
After preparing for so long, they should be able to find the right answer, shouldn't they?
A moment later, the Sky Screen's majestic, holy voice appeared once more.
[First question: Where is The Strongest of the present age located?] [1. Nirvana Island; 2. Heaven Dou City; 3. Star Dou Great Forest; 4. Deep Sea;] [5. Sea God Island; 6. Spirit City; 7. Slaughter City; 8. Far North] [Registration begins!]
The first question had appeared, and it directly listed eight options.
This left everyone dumbfounded.
So many options?
Which one was the correct answer?
"Spirit City, probably? I heard Spirit Hall's Grand Worshipper is incredibly powerful!"
"The Far North? Hardly anyone has ever been there. It's far too dangerous! I think it must be in the Far North!"
"It should be the deep sea! Don't forget the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King!"
"It is definitely Nirvana Island! Ye Mingzhao is on Nirvana Island, and he's a God King Level powerhouse!"
"But the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King now has a cultivation of one million six hundred thousand years!"
When the options appeared, countless people felt their heads buzzing.
Where was The Strongest of the present age located?
No one had expected such a question.
Once the answer was announced, it would likely swiftly alter the entire situation on Douluo Continent.
Inside the Star Luo Imperial Palace, the Star Luo Emperor's face darkened.
Of the eight options, not one mentioned Star Luo City!
What did that mean?
Was his Star Luo Empire unworthy?
Even if some of the options were merely there to fill space, they should at least have included Star Luo City.
Otherwise, people would laugh at them!
They did not even qualify to become an option!
