Xue Ke was dumbfounded.

The Sky Screen had all kinds of punishments; it really might erase some of her memories.

What if it made her forget Master Ye?

Was she supposed to smash her head with a hammer?

That would kill her!

Ye Mu remained calm. Xue Ke still had the temperament of a child.

But she trusted him absolutely.

If she really were selected, he could only tell her the correct answer.

Now it depended on whether the Sky Screen would give her a second round of bad luck.

Tang Yuehua knew how much Xue Ke admired Ye Mu.

It had already reached the point of madness and blind worship.

Now, she was genuinely worried that Xue Ke might be chosen.

Qian Renxue thought to herself that if Xue Ke were selected but did not know the correct answer, it would be somewhat regrettable.

Although Xue Ke belonged to the Heaven Dou Imperial Family.

She posed no direct threat to her.

At the moment, she was also curious about where the strongest person in this world truly was.

Once the Sky Screen announced its answer, bloodshed would likely sweep across the entire Douluo Continent.

Based on what was currently known.

Ye Mingzhao and the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King were among the strongest.

One was level 155, while the other had 1.6 million years of cultivation.

If neither of them was the correct answer.

That meant the correct answer was even stronger than them.

What kind of expert would that be?

It was truly unimaginable.

Inside Blue Tyrant Academy.

Yu Xiaogang stared at the sky outside the window.

He continuously pondered the eight options.

"Judging from the current eight options, the answer should be either Nirvana Island or the Deep Sea!"

"Heaven Dou City is impossible. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is not located in Heaven Dou City."

"In other words, the strongest person in Heaven Dou City is Dugu Bo. But there are far too many people stronger than Dugu Bo; he is not the strongest person in this world."

"Although Spirit Hall has top-tier experts, they should still be inferior to Ye Mingzhao and the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King."

After analyzing it this way, everyone agreed.

Heaven Dou City was the capital of the Heaven Dou Empire.

But it truly lacked powerful experts.

Basically, only Poison Douluo was holding up the fort.

Therefore, Heaven Dou City could not be the correct answer.

As for the other places, based on the information they knew, there were no God King Level experts either.

That left only two options for the correct answer.

Nirvana Island and the Deep Sea.

"Teacher, which one do you think is the strongest?"

Tang San asked.

Everyone's gazes fell upon Yu Xiaogang.

Although the material for the Ten Core Competencies of Martial Soul had not been researched by him personally.

And had instead come from Spirit Hall.

It was undeniable that he had read an enormous amount of material.

When it came to analyzing strength, it was certainly what he excelled at most.

In terms of knowledge, no matter how he had obtained it, no one could deny his wisdom and breadth of learning.

Yu Xiaogang narrowed his eyes in thought before slowly speaking.

"Ye Mingzhao is level 155, while the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King has 1.6 million years of cultivation."

"Based on the conversion of cultivation levels, the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King should correspond to level 160."

"As for other methods, trump cards, or Divinities."

"Ye Mingzhao possesses a God King Divinity, and the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King also possesses a Divinity."

"Taking everything into consideration, the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King should have a slight edge."

After that analysis, everyone approved.

The level conversion also seemed to clarify certain things.

But was the conversion between levels really that simple?

When it came to Soul Beasts beyond a hundred thousand years old, almost no one in the Soul Master world understood them.

Yu Xiaogang was merely using some old information to make calculations.

That was how he reached such a conclusion.

However, he had never personally experienced the strength of Soul Beasts hundreds of thousands of years old.

Not to mention those at the million-year level.

Taking every circumstance into account.

His so-called level conversion was not worth mentioning at all.

He understood even less that Divinities also varied in rank.

"Xiaogang, then shall we register?"

Flender looked forward to it somewhat.

Someone from Blue Tyrant Academy had to answer correctly.

Otherwise, they would become a laughingstock.

Three people in a row had answered incorrectly.

Even Yu Xiaogang's Ten Core Competencies of Martial Soul had been proven to be plagiarized from Spirit Hall's materials.

If no one answered correctly again, Blue Tyrant Academy would truly be mocked in the future.

"Register. There should not be any mistake."

"Choose the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King—the Deep Sea!"

He said it with complete certainty!

As for the ordinary commoners.

They hoped even more that Nirvana Island was the correct answer.

Because if it was the Deep Sea, that meant the Soul Beast Clan was the strongest.

With such an existence leading them, the human world might very well be trampled beneath the feet of Soul Beasts.

The various factions nearly tore through all their records.

All kinds of calculations emerged one after another.

Yet no one could provide the correct answer.

After some time passed, the Sky Screen's voice appeared again.

[Registration has ended. A total of 1,532 people registered this time. Random selection commencing!] [Random selection complete. The answerer: Tang Hao!]

As the voice fell, a figure appeared within the Sky Screen Scroll.

Relevant annotations also appeared beside the figure.

Tang Hao, born in the Clear Sky Sect...

The information was fairly detailed, though not absurdly so.

However, when that name appeared, many people across the Douluo Continent were stunned.

This time, the answerer was actually a Title Douluo?

And one from the Clear Sky Sect, the World's Number One Sect!

Tang Hao's name was an absolute legend in the Soul Master world.

The youngest Title Douluo, who had even beaten the previous Pope to death.

If such a terrifying existence answered correctly, how frightening would that be?

However, there were truly few registrants this time.

Probably because no one knew the answer and no one dared to gamble.

The punishments given by the Sky Screen had never been a joke.

Once one answered incorrectly, there would be no redemption!

At the Clear Sky Sect.

When Tang Xiao saw the answerer's name and information, he immediately burst into laughter.

"Brother Hao has become the answerer. The Clear Sky Sect's chance has arrived!"

"Clan Leader, this... does he know the correct answer?"

Some members of the Elder Hall were not pleased.

Back then, because of Tang Hao, the Clear Sky Sect had been forced to close its gates.

They had also lost quite a few people.

Even an elder's son had died because of Tang Hao.

Even now, the Elder Hall did not acknowledge Tang Hao.

Nor did they intend to let him return to the Clear Sky Sect.

However, Tang Hao had now become the answerer.

Tang Xiao was full of confidence as he said, "Brother Hao does not do things unless he is certain."

"Since he chose to register, he must be absolutely confident!"

Yet those words made some elders sneer inwardly.

He did not do things unless he was certain?

Back then, when he flew into a rage for a beauty and hammered the previous Pope, was that something he had been certain of?

The Clear Sky Sect was still in seclusion now. Whose fault was that?

Inside Spirit City.

When Qian Daoliu saw that name, his expression remained calm.

But he still clenched his fists.

If not for Tang Hao back then, Bibi Dong would never have found the opportunity to seize his son.

"That brat... had better answer incorrectly. Otherwise..."

Killing intent flashed through Qian Daoliu's eyes.

If Tang Hao answered correctly and obtained a reward.

He would surely become Spirit Hall's greatest enemy in the future.

Qian Daoliu had to seize the chance to eliminate Tang Hao!

Many people across the continent awaited Tang Hao's answer, especially Tai Tan, the clan leader of the Strength Clan.

The moment he saw Tang Hao's name, tears streamed down his aged face.

"Master... finally, finally, I can see you again!"
