The Sixth on the Golden Ranking Revealed!! Ice and Fire Dragon Kings!

"Sunset Forest... Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well."

Long Yun murmured in his heart, a strange glint flashing through his eyes.

There lay the fallen remains of two ancient existences—the remnant souls and skeletons of the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings.

Perhaps, in that place, he could find more clues regarding the Dragon God War of that era, or even...

Thinking of this, a faint smile curled the corners of Long Yun's lips.

On the other side.

The outer perimeter of the Star Dou Great Forest.

Hidden within the shadows of dense, ancient trees, a group of powerhouses clad in the noble attire of Martial Soul Hall lay in wait.

The leader was none other than the Pope of Martial Soul Hall, Bibi Dong.

Behind her, Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan, Ghost Douluo Gui Mei, and several elders at the Title Douluo level stood with solemn expressions.

At this moment, Bibi Dong's beautiful eyes were fixed on the terrifying aura emanating from Bi Ji on the Sky Screen after she had finished absorbing her reward. Her fists clenched subconsciously, her long nails digging deep into her palms.

"Nine hundred and ninety thousand years... fragments of the Laws of Life."

Bibi Dong whispered, her voice laced with an undisguised, burning intensity and unwillingness.

The scene where Bi Ji had voluntarily offered her reward to Gu Yuena had naturally not escaped her notice.

"Your Holiness, did you see that?"

Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan swallowed hard and spoke in a low voice:

"That Sky Screen reward... it seems it really can be stripped away. If we could seize the rewards of those soul beasts on the rankings, wouldn't our Martial Soul Hall be able to instantly produce several gods?"

Bibi Dong cast a cold glance at Yue Guan, yet her beautiful eyes clearly flickered with a glimmer of agreement.

"This Pope naturally saw it."

Bibi Dong turned around, looking toward the deep, core region of the Star Dou Great Forest, a flash of wariness crossing her eyes.

"However, with our current strength, we cannot move against that Emerald Swan. With her current cultivation of nine hundred and ninety thousand years, coupled with Di Tian, if we were to act rashly, Martial Soul Hall would suffer heavy losses."

She took a deep breath, quickly clearing her thoughts.

"The most urgent priority is to first enhance this Pope's own strength."

Just then.

A Martial Soul Hall scout at the Soul Saint level, responsible for pathfinding, swept in from the depths of the forest like a phantom. He knelt on one knee before Bibi Dong and reported respectfully:

"Reporting to Your Holiness the Pope, ten miles ahead, we have discovered traces of a Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear pack. Among them is an existence of immense size; judging by the Soul Power fluctuations it emits, it is highly likely to be the descendant bloodline left behind by Xiong Jun, who is ranked ninth on the Sky Screen!"

"Good."

A cruel smile tugged at the corners of Bibi Dong's mouth.

"Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear... my second martial soul is in need of a truly powerful soul ring. Move out. You must ensure a one-hit kill; Di Tian must not be allowed to detect our movements!"

Following Bibi Dong's order, the many powerhouses of Martial Soul Hall instantly transformed into streaks of afterimages, speeding toward the depths of the Star Dou Great Forest.

Meanwhile.

The royal families of the Heaven Dou Empire and the Star Luo Empire were also struck with terror upon seeing the birth of an Emerald Swan Emperor with strength approaching a million years on the Sky Screen.

"Nine hundred and ninety thousand years... if a monster like this were to go mad, our empire's million-strong army would likely not even be enough to fill the gaps between its teeth."

"Fortunately, the Sky Screen says this Emerald Swan clan possesses great love and is not the type of cruel, bloodthirsty soul beast. Otherwise, it would be a devastating catastrophe for our entire human world!"

The emperors of the two great empires breathed a sigh of relief simultaneously, secretly feeling fortunate.

Shrek Academy.

At this moment, in a somewhat crude courtyard.

Yu Xiaogang, Tang San, Xiao Wu, Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, and the others were watching the Sky Screen with grim expressions.

"Damn it, these wretched beasts, by what right do they receive god-like fortune?"

Dai Mubai slammed his fist hard against the stone table beside him, his face livid, his eyes filled with jealousy and rage.

Ma Hongjun, standing nearby, chimed in with equal indignation:

"Exactly, the heavens are truly blind. A big white goose with zero offensive capability suddenly becomes a nine hundred and ninety thousand-year super powerhouse. If that had been given to me, I would have become a god by now!"

Watching the group's indignant display, Yu Xiaogang, who sat to the side with his hands behind his back, wore a look of inscrutable depth.

"Enough, do not lose your composure over these soul beasts that have nothing to do with us."

Yu Xiaogang turned around, looked at Tang San and the others, and said slowly:

"Before long, the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament will begin. This tournament will be the best opportunity for you to make a name for yourselves."

Hearing the words "Elite Tournament," a sharp glint flashed in Tang San's eyes.

Yu Xiaogang continued:

"However, to ensure there are no slip-ups, I have recently consulted some ancient texts. I heard that within the mysterious Rainbow Academy, there seems to exist a peculiar divine object known as the 'Water of Life'."

"It is said that the Water of Life can cleanse the marrow and refine the bones, greatly enhancing a soul master's aptitude and Soul Power. Since their Rainbow Academy has always been mediocre, leaving such a divine object in their hands is simply a waste of a heavenly treasure."

As he said this, a look of self-evident justification flashed through Yu Xiaogang's eyes.

"For the glory of our Shrek, before the tournament begins, we shall pay a visit to that Rainbow Academy and take the Water of Life to boost your strength. I presume the dean of the Rainbow Academy will understand the bigger picture and gift the divine object to us, the true geniuses."

Upon hearing this, Tang San nodded slightly, his expression entirely calm.

In his view, his teacher's words made perfect sense. Good things should naturally be used by peerless geniuses like them, who could bring honor to humanity.

"Rest assured, Teacher, we will definitely obtain the Water of Life," Tang San said in a flat tone.

"Hehe, Master, I've heard that although the Rainbow Academy's strength is average, the female students inside are all quite lovely, especially a pair of stunning twins who are quite famous throughout Heaven Dou City."

Ma Hongjun let out a lecherous laugh, his small eyes filled with malicious intent.

Dai Mubai, standing to the side, also gave a wicked grin and patted Ma Hongjun on the shoulder:

"Fatty, when we get to the Rainbow Academy, make sure to save a couple for your brother."

A burst of knowing laughter immediately erupted in the courtyard.

Time flowed on.

On the Douluo Continent, the shock regarding the Emerald Swan Bi Ji gradually settled as time passed.

In the blink of an eye, the Purple Clouds above the Sky Screen began to churn violently once more, and a divine might, even more vast and oppressive than before, slowly condensed in the sky.

At this moment, all soul masters and soul beasts across the entire continent once again set aside their tasks and stared at the sky.

The barrage of comments began to scroll at a frantic speed.
