"Making three ranking lists in a row had practically exhausted me!"
In a clean, tidy room stood a handsome young man who could have made a living off his face alone.
The young man's name was Lu Chen. After working through the night, he was utterly exhausted.
Lu Chen was a transmigrator and the owner of a system. During an early-morning class in his previous life, he had played a game of chicken with a truck driving against traffic, and that was how he arrived on the Douluo Continent—a world centered around martial souls, where strength reigned supreme and the strong were revered.
Fourteen years ago, Su Yuntao, nicknamed the Blind God King, had conducted Lu Chen's martial soul awakening ceremony.
During the ceremony, Lu Chen successfully awakened his martial soul: the Scythe.
He had a martial soul, but his Innate Soul Power was zero.
Lu Chen had thought that, without Innate Soul Power and unable to become a soul master, he would find it difficult to achieve anything on the continent. To his surprise, a system had come looking for him yesterday!
The system told Lu Chen that as long as he created ranking lists, he could obtain rewards and grow stronger!
The system's rewards could do far more than make Lu Chen a soul master—they could even help him become a god!
So, having long grown accustomed to being worked like a mule in his previous life, Lu Chen spent the entire night creating three ranking lists!
The first ranking list: the Strongest Human Monologue Ranking!
The second ranking list: the Strongest Spirit Ranking!
The third ranking list: the Strongest Spirit Beast Ranking!
The Strongest Human Monologue Ranking only included human experts of this era.
The Strongest Spirit Ranking included powerful martial souls from twenty thousand years into the future.
The Strongest Spirit Beast Ranking included both land spirit beasts and sea spirit beasts.
System detected that the host has completed the ranking lists! Would the host like to deploy the Sky Curtain now?
The system's cold, indifferent mechanical voice echoed in Lu Chen's mind.
Without hesitation, Lu Chen immediately answered, "Yes!"
The moment he answered, Lu Chen could barely wait to receive the system's rewards.
Spirit bones.
Domains.
Immortal herbs.
Anything would do.
Lu Chen was not picky!
BOOM!!!!!
The instant Lu Chen gave his answer, a deafening boom erupted from the azure sky.
Without hesitation, Lu Chen hurried to the window to look outside.
There, in the sky, a visible Light Screen appeared out of nowhere.
As clear words emerged upon the Light Screen, an imposing voice rang out as well.
The voice entered the ears of every living being and lingered for a long time.
The Heavenly Ranking has descended, blessing all creation!
The Strongest Human Monologue Ranking contains only people of the present era. Its rankings are determined by strength, and all those who make the list shall receive an opportunity to defy fate and change their destiny!
This ranking list contains ten ranks!
This ranking list contains thirteen people!
Attention: after every three ranks are revealed, the ranking list will rotate! The next list shall be the Strongest Spirit Ranking!
The moment the voice sounded, a tremendous uproar swept across the continent.
"Th-this... is this a divine miracle?!"
"What divine miracle? It must be some control-type soul master's illusion! Still, this illusion is pretty incredible! I kind of want to learn it!"
"The Strongest Human Monologue Ranking? Interesting."
"There are ten ranks, so why are thirteen people on the list? Could some of them be tied?"
"Those who make this list should all be experts at the Title Douluo level, right?"
Heaven Dou Empire, Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
"Uncle Sword, what do you make of that thing in the sky?"
Looking up at the heavens and the dazzling Light Screen, Ning Fengzhi asked Sword Douluo Chen Xin beside him.
After careful consideration, Sword Douluo Chen Xin answered solemnly, "A divine miracle!"
Sword Douluo Chen Xin was a Rank 96 Title Douluo. Known as the strongest attack-type Title Douluo, he was exceptionally observant.
After examining it carefully, Sword Douluo Chen Xin was one hundred percent certain that the thing in the sky was not an illusion—it was real!
In Chen Xin's view, only the Supreme God could create something with such vast influence! It could only be a rare divine miracle!
"Uncle Sword, with your strength, I believe you will certainly be among those thirteen." Ning Fengzhi was full of confidence.
"May your words come true." Sword Douluo Chen Xin answered with equal confidence.
Spirit City, Papal Palace.
Three people stood outside the Papal Palace: Spirit Hall Pontiff Bibi Dong, Spirit Hall Elder Ju Douluo Yue Guan, and Spirit Hall Elder Ghost Douluo Gui Mei.
As if by prior agreement, all three fixed their gazes upon the Light Screen in the sky.
"The Strongest Human Monologue Ranking? Old Ghost, do you think you and I can make the list?"
Ju Douluo Yue Guan spoke with an eager expression.
Ghost Douluo Gui Mei shook his head and answered, "Most likely not. After all, Spirit Hall alone has more than five experts stronger than us."
Once he finished speaking, the two of them turned their gazes toward Bibi Dong.
They were unlikely to make the list, but Bibi Dong would certainly be on it! After all, she possessed Twin Martial Souls and was a Title Douluo at the Peak First Realm!
Not to mention that Bibi Dong alone possessed two Hundred Thousand Year Soul Rings!
On top of that, Bibi Dong also possessed an exceedingly rare External Soul Bone!
Heaven Dou Empire, the Clear Sky Sect, which had withdrawn into the mountains and cut itself off from worldly affairs.
At the entrance to the Clear Sky Sect stood five elderly men side by side.
Those five old men were the Clear Sky Sect's five Title Douluo-level elders.
"An opportunity to defy fate and change one's destiny? I wonder whether, if our Clear Sky Sect obtains it, we can use it to return to the Soul Master World!" The Clear Sky Sect Second Elder muttered as he stared intently at the Light Screen above.
"Our Clear Sky Sect should have three people capable of making the list," the Clear Sky Sect Fourth Elder said from the side.
"Which three?" the curious Clear Sky Sect Sixth Elder immediately asked.
"Sect Master Tang Xiao, Ancestor Tang Chen, and that traitorous disciple Tang Hao," the Clear Sky Sect Fourth Elder replied without hesitation.
"The Strongest Spirit Ranking? Without question, our Clear Sky Sect's inherited martial soul, the Clear Sky Hammer, will surely be on it. After all, the Clear Sky Hammer is the strongest assault-type Artifact Martial Soul!" Seventh Elder Tang Lieyang spoke with complete confidence.
Star Dou Great Forest, the unknown Great Fiend Ground.
In the eyes of the world, Lake of Life was the most dangerous place in the Star Dou Great Forest, but no one knew that this Great Fiend Ground was the true danger!
Within the unknown Great Fiend Ground lay a group of terrifying existences that had slept for a long time!
Now, disturbed by the Light Screen in the sky and that imposing voice, they awakened one after another.
Under the watchful eyes of countless people, the Light Screen in the sky began to change visibly.
As the Light Screen changed, the imposing voice that had lingered for so long rang out once more.
Tenth place on the Strongest Human Monologue Ranking: Angel Douluo Qian Daoliu!
