[Iwagakure]

[Located in the continent's northwest, it was surrounded by towering rocky mountains and desolate Gobi wastelands. The terrain was magnificent and treacherous, with passes easy to defend and difficult to attack—a natural military stronghold.]

[Led by the Tsuchikage.]

[Signature Martial Souls: rock, Dust Release, explosions, gravity. They excelled at fighting by leveraging mountainous terrain, combining offense and defense with terrifying explosive power.]

[Possessed Tailed Beasts: Four-Tails, Five-Tails.]

[Kirigakure]

[Occupying an archipelago in the eastern seas of the continent, it was surrounded by water. Sea fog lingered year-round, rain fell incessantly, and the sea created extreme isolation from the outside world.]

[Led by the Mizukage.]

[Its signature Martial Souls covered an extensive range: water, ice, bone, Magma, and countless other special Martial Souls. Its Ninjutsu was strange and unpredictable, and it excelled at assassination and aquatic combat.]

[Controlled Tailed Beasts: Three-Tails, Six-Tails.]

The territories, geographical features, unique Martial Soul systems, and Tailed Beast allocations of the three great shinobi villages were all clearly displayed on the Sky Screen. Living beings across the entire Douluo Continent watched without blinking.

"So every shinobi village had a Tailed Beast guarding it?"

"But it's strange. Why did Kumogakure, Iwagakure, and Kirigakure each have two Tailed Beasts, while Konoha and Sunagakure only had one?"

"Didn't they say Konoha was the strongest shinobi village? Why did it only possess one Nine-Tails? That makes no sense."

"Could it be that the more tails they have, the stronger the Tailed Beast itself is?"

Spirit Hall

Yu Zhi stood alone by the window, frowning slightly as he stroked his chin in thought.

"They didn't even show battles from the other villages! But that makes sense. In the original story, aside from the Hokage, only the Kazekage and Raikage from the other villages had individual fights!"

Then he looked curiously toward the Sky Screen.

"Now that all Five Great Shinobi Villages have been introduced, what else can this Sky Screen show next? Don't tell me it's going to be some cliché continental quiz?"

If it was a quiz format, it would practically be a cheat for him. With his foreknowledge, he could easily exploit the information gap across the entire continent.

Then greed rose in his heart. But if it could directly teleport me to the Naruto Continent, that would be even better.

The instant the thought arose, a sudden change occurred.

The Sky Screen, which had gradually been dimming, suddenly blazed with spiritual light once more. A radiant screen spread across the heavens again, and lines of gleaming golden text appeared between heaven and earth, clearly entering everyone's sight:

[Later, the Sky Screen will select lucky participants. In three days, they will enter the Nine-Tails Incident exclusive Dungeon.]

[An immersive cross-world experience, personally witnessing a classic timeline of the Naruto Continent.]

[The Dungeon extracts a fixed fragment of time and space and will not interfere with the Naruto Continent's original future trajectory.]

[Any who fall within the Dungeon will immediately be transported back to this continent. Their bodies and souls will remain completely unharmed, with no aftereffects. Furthermore, anything obtained in the Dungeon may be brought back!]

The moment the news appeared, the entire Douluo Continent erupted. Everyone stared wide-eyed, their faces filled with disbelief.

"Extracting a timeline directly and creating an independent Dungeon... just how powerful is this Sky Screen?"

"Even the legendary gods have never been heard of possessing such methods! This has completely surpassed the world's understanding!"

"This is an opportunity! A heaven-sent opportunity has arrived!"

Inside Spirit Hall, Yu Zhi's pupils contracted sharply.

"This definitely isn't a coincidence!"

"The Sky Screen was clearly about to end, yet it restarted just now to begin selecting Dungeon participants."

His heart jolted as he thought to himself, Could it be... the Sky Screen has been secretly observing me all along? Can it sense my inner voice and thoughts?

Countless thoughts churned through his mind. He quickly steadied himself and fixed his gaze tightly on the Sky Screen above.

"Whatever. Whether it's my cheat or not, I'll find out if it chooses me!"

Above the heavens, golden light shone from the Sky Screen once again.

The members selected tomorrow for the Nine-Tails Incident Dungeon are announced in advance:

[Martial Soul Hall Saint: Yu Zhi]

[Poison Douluo: Dugu Bo]

[Thunder Douluo: Yu Yuanzhen]

[Otherworld Transmigrator: Tang San]

[Howling Sky Douluo: Tang Xiao]

The instant the list appeared, a tremendous uproar swept across the entire Douluo Continent.

"Spirit Hall has a Holy Son?"

"Only five people were chosen from the entire continent? That's too outrageous!"

"Gasp—they're all extraordinary! Either a Holy Son or a Title Douluo!"

"But who is Tang San? What does Otherworld Transmigrator mean? How could that identity stand alongside them?"

"Does anyone know Tang San?"

Heaven Dou Imperial Palace

Marshal Ge Long looked at the Sky Screen, unable to hide his excitement. He hurried forward, cupped his hands, and urgently said, "Your Majesty! This is truly a heaven-sent opportunity! Poison Douluo has been selected. If he can bring back that Ninjutsu and those Sealing Techniques, our empire's overall strength will soar by leaps and bounds!"

Xue Ye was equally excited and immediately gave the order.

"Contact Poison Douluo at once! No, I will go personally! Heaven Dou is about to rise!"

At that moment, a civil official stepped forward and bowed as he offered his counsel. "Your Majesty, the urgent matter is also to announce this to the world: anyone selected by the Sky Screen who can bring back secret arts or cultivation methods from the Naruto Continent shall receive generous rewards from the empire! We must not let slip even the slightest chance to obtain Ninjutsu!"

Xue Ye nodded and decisively ordered, "Issue an imperial decree throughout the nation at once! In future Sky Screen selections, regardless of whether one comes from a sect, is a commoner, or belongs to another empire, they will be directly granted the title of Heaven Dou Count! If they can bring back a complete Ninjutsu inheritance, they will exceptionally be made king!"

"Also, investigate Tang San. He is the only one who belongs to no known faction. I do not care what this transmigrator business means! As long as he can be used by our empire!"

The entire court bowed in unison. "Your Majesty is wise!"

In the courtyard of Dugu Manor

Dugu Yan looked up at the selected list on the Sky Screen and cried out excitedly again and again.

"Ahhh! Grandpa, you were chosen!"

Her face was brimming with delight, her eyes full of envy and excitement.

"This is a heaven-sent opportunity! Only five people were selected from the entire Douluo Continent! And the rules say that even if you fall in the Dungeon, it's fine. There's absolutely no danger to your life!"

Dugu Bo stood calmly with his hands behind his back. His gaze fell upon the list on the Sky Screen. Seeing his own name, then catching sight of Yu Zhi's name at the very top, he immediately broke into a cheerful laugh.

"Yanyan, Grandpa saw it. I never expected that Little Monster Yu Zhi would be selected too. Perfect. Take this opportunity to get to know him properly."

Ever since he had met that brat Yu Zhi, his luck seemed to have soared without end. Now even a heaven-defying opportunity like the Sky Screen Dungeon had fallen into his lap!

Dugu Yan was curious but also somewhat unconvinced. She pouted and stared intently at the words "Yu Zhi" on the Sky Screen.

"Fine! I'll have a good look at just what makes this Yu Zhi so extraordinary that you've always thought so highly of him, Grandpa!"

Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect

Inside the sect's main hall, Yu Yuanzhen looked up at the Sky Screen. His eyes gleamed brightly as he could not help roaring with laughter. "Good! Excellent! From tomorrow onward, it will be the moment for our Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect to soar into the heavens!"

Yu Luomian, standing beside him, looked worried and frowned as he tried to dissuade him. "Big Brother, that Nine-Tails Incident is full of dangers! Are you confident?"

Yet Yu Yuanzhen was completely assured. He smiled calmly. "You still haven't seen through it? That continent has no Spirit Ring system. In my view, it has no Spirit Beasts either!"

Yu Luomian froze for a moment, still puzzled. "That does seem to be the case. They only have strange beasts like Tailed Beasts and Summoning Toads, but what does that prove?"
