The moment the Scarlet King struck, the entire scene fell deathly silent!

Everyone from Shrek stood rooted in place, their minds completely blank. Their composure had utterly collapsed!

In the space of a few short moments, the plot had twisted and turned again and again, one shock following another. It was even more thrilling than hunting Soul Beasts!

"Just who is Qin Chuan? He's so powerful himself, and he even has a Titled Douluo protecting him!"

First, Qin Chuan had broken through the combined efforts of Flender and Zhao Wuji, then beaten Tang San until his face was bruised and swollen, several ribs broken, and he had nearly died.

Then the Clear Sky Douluo, whose name shook the continent, had appeared in a storm of upheaval, intent on killing Qin Chuan. He had been the very picture of domineering power.

Yet now, just when they had thought everything was finally settled, another twist had suddenly arisen.

A mysterious powerhouse had appeared out of nowhere, mighty and astonishing. He had stopped Tang Hao and, instead, treated him like prey.

"Dean, do you know this Titled Douluo?" Dai Mubai's eyes blazed with a hint of longing.

"I know His Excellency Haotian, but this one is a complete stranger. I've never heard of him anywhere on the continent." Flender shook his head, just as bewildered.

Zhao Wuji rubbed his still-aching head.

"This is ridiculous! The pressure this mysterious powerhouse gives off is even more terrifying than the Clear Sky Douluo's. He's definitely a real monster!"

The Scarlet King was extraordinarily powerful. His cultivation was close to three hundred thousand years. He might not have been able to crush Tang Hao outright, but he had the upper hand and steadily outmatched him.

He was comparable to a Titled Douluo of at least Rank 95.

Under the Scarlet King's attacks, Tang Hao grew ever more frenzied. His Soul Power seemed to burn throughout his body as he attacked with reckless abandon.

Soon, an enormous iron hammer loomed over the sky, crushing everything in its path as it came crashing down. It was Tang Hao's Martial Soul Avatar—the Clear Sky Hammer.

The loss of his Soul Bone had nearly driven Tang Hao out of his mind. Ignoring the old injuries in his body, he fought the Scarlet King like a wild beast.

Though he was already wounded after only a few short breaths, he paid it no heed and charged at the Scarlet King.

"Has this man gone mad?" the Scarlet King fumed. Even he felt a hint of pressure beneath Tang Hao's desperate attacks.

His enormous body stood in the sky, blazing red as he appeared overhead and roared at Tang Hao.

Since his opponent was fighting as if he were ready to die, that was all the better. The Scarlet King wouldn't have to waste effort keeping him from escaping.

Qin Chuan's life was now tied to the prosperity of their Soul Beast Clan, and even to their Lord. The Scarlet King would sooner die than let anything happen to him.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The Scarlet King and Tang Hao fought with their own motives in mind, both working themselves into a fury. Every move carried the weight of years, and every strike shook heaven and earth.

Qin Chuan watched the battle intently. The two were now fighting for their lives.

He wasn't panicking. Instead, he calmly watched the battle, studying it closely.

Though their systems of cultivation were different, the Three Thousand Great Daos ultimately led to the same destination. The principles were the same.

Whether it was the tempering of the body or the resources provided by various spirit medicines, all of it could be obtained through certain means.

But the chance to watch these powerhouses fight didn't come often, and it could help him on his path in the future.

"Dean, do you know what kind of Martial Soul that is?" Zhao Wuji asked with a frown, unable to make sense of the Scarlet King's crimson figure.

"Fur like flames, the shape of a dog, and three heads." Flender studied him carefully before arriving at a conclusion.

"This should be a rare Mutated Martial Soul, evolved from a canine Martial Soul in a favorable direction."

"I see!" Zhao Wuji nodded. Qin Chuan had kicked him unconscious earlier, but Ma Hongjun had slapped him awake several times.

Of course, to show his gratitude, he'd returned the favor with a few slaps of his own—and he'd even infused them with Soul Power.

Qin Chuan paid no attention to what was happening over at Shrek Academy. He simply watched the battle in silence, searching for insights.

Rumble!

The battle continued, but in the end, the Scarlet King gained the slight advantage, forcing Tang Hao back again and again.

The old injuries that had plagued Tang Hao for years still lay dormant within him like a malignant tumor, flaring up from time to time. He had never managed to cure them and had to constantly divert his attention to suppress them.

On top of that, he had spent all these years drowning himself in alcohol, living in a daze and neglecting his cultivation. His strength had actually declined instead of improving, so he stood even less of a chance against the Scarlet King now.

Sshk—!

A massive, blood-red claw swept through the sky, impossible to evade. Like a punishment from heaven, it slammed into Tang Hao's chest!

Pff!

Tang Hao couldn't believe it. He spat out a mouthful of blood essence, and his body flew like a broken kite from an altitude of ten thousand feet before crashing into the ground and leaving a massive crater!

"The winner's about to be decided," Flender said gravely, shock in his eyes, unable to believe what he was seeing.

The Clear Sky Douluo, who had become famous across the continent more than ten years ago and had even killed the former Spirit Hall Pope, was actually about to lose!

Defeated by a Titled Douluo whose title no one had ever heard of, he'd been knocked from his pedestal. The news alone would send shock waves across the continent.

Everyone from Shrek could hardly believe what they were seeing, especially Liu An, who knew just how terrifying Tang Hao was.

Boom!

At last, the Scarlet King defeated his enemy with a single move. His claws swept across Tang Hao's chest, knocking him out of the sky and slamming him hard into the ground.

He was only a Rank 92 Titled Douluo. He had spent years wasting his days, and old injuries plagued him. Even with all the peerless techniques he'd learned, he couldn't stand against the Scarlet King.

"Damn it!" Liu An was terrified. He was now completely certain that Qin Chuan, like him, wasn't from this world. He was a transmigrator.

"I have to use that thing and get out of here. Once the time comes, I'll use the system's power to get rid of him." Liu An glared at Qin Chuan with venom.

He didn't know whether Qin Chuan had obtained a system, but it didn't matter. There could only be one transmigrator on the Douluo Continent—him. All the others had to die.

"Senior..." Seeing that the Scarlet King had won, Qin Chuan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

But just as he was about to speak, a flash of white light appeared, and Tang Hao, who had been gravely wounded and fallen to the ground, suddenly vanished.

"How could this happen?" Qin Chuan was shocked. He suddenly remembered something and whipped around to look at Tang San and Liu An.

Sure enough, both had vanished. Even Dai Mubai, who had been supporting Liu An the whole time, wore a horrified expression.

"Damn it, I was careless. How did I not notice sooner?" Qin Chuan regretted it bitterly.

Sun Wukong and the Golden Cudgel were familiar names on Earth Star, but this continent had no such legends.

Since Liu An knew about them, he clearly wasn't a native of this world either. Like Qin Chuan, he came from Earth Star.

Given what they knew, Qin Chuan and Liu An had each guessed the other's identity, but neither had figured it out completely. Instead, they'd fallen into a huge misunderstanding.

Still, it didn't matter.

The main culprit behind his grudge, Tang San, had ingested that poison and was bound to die. Tang Hao had been grievously wounded by the Scarlet King, and Qin Chuan could finish him off himself in the future.

And he'd even gotten a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone for free, along with...

Qin Chuan lowered his head and looked at Yu Xiaogang, whose face was full of fear as Qin Chuan pinned him beneath his foot.

Tang San, your master's been captured too!
