Under the watchful eyes of countless living beings,
The scroll displayed part of Long Aotian's past, while the Heavenly Voice rang out:
[The one standing before you now is the direct disciple of Du Busi, Sect Master of the Body Sect; the Body Sect's foremost prodigy; and the most gifted member of the Heaven Dou Empire's younger generation—Long Aotian!] [Long Aotian possesses a Body Martial Soul: Skin!] [He is one of the unparalleled geniuses the Body Sect, and indeed the entire continent, sees only once in a thousand years. He completed his Body Martial Soul's Bronze-Level Awakening at twelve and Silver-Level Awakening at fourteen!] [He is also the first person on the continent to break through to the Soul King realm at the age of fourteen!]
Immediately afterward,
The golden scroll showed Long Aotian using his soul skills.
[First Soul Skill: Demon Ape Transformation!] [Second Soul Skill: Golden God Rage!] [Third Soul Skill: Dark Gold Power!] [Fourth Soul Skill: Mad God Slash!] [Fifth Soul Skill: Heaven and Earth Transformation!] [...]
"???"
"What?! Did I hear that right? A fourteen-year-old Soul King?"
"Meng Hongchen breaking through to Soul King at fifteen was already terrifying enough. Long Aotian was actually a year younger than her!"
"He completed Bronze-Level Awakening at twelve and Silver-Level Awakening at fourteen... Is this the Body Sect's number one prodigy?"
"No wonder he ranked eleventh on the Heavenly Pride Ranking. This talent is simply monstrous..."
"..."
All Living Beings were utterly stunned.
For a moment, they found it difficult to accept Long Aotian's talent.
That was a fourteen-year-old Soul King.
Long Aotian was an unprecedented existence even in the history of Douluo Continent!
Not to mention that he had completed two Body Martial Soul awakenings. His talent far surpassed Ma Xiaotao, Bei Bei, and the others. His eleventh-place ranking on the Heavenly Pride Ranking was truly well deserved!
Within the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineer Academy,
Xiao Hongchen stood frozen in place.
For the first time, a look of alarm appeared on his face.
Meng Hongchen stood beside him, her exquisite face likewise filled with shock.
"A fourteen-year-old Soul King?"
"Brother, he is a whole year younger than us, yet his Soul Power Level is actually on par with ours?"
"That's right."
A cold smile curled across Xiao Hongchen's lips.
He stared fixedly at the honest-looking figure on the Sky Screen, his fingers unconsciously clenching.
"And he has even achieved Silver-Level Awakening for his Body Martial Soul. Only a prodigy like this is worthy of being my opponent!"
"This is getting more and more interesting."
"A fourteen-year-old Soul King! I never thought the Body Sect could cultivate such a monster?"
Star Luo Empire, within the imperial palace.
Xu Jiawei abruptly rose to his feet, his face full of alarm.
His body trembled slightly, and his voice carried unconcealed shock.
"No wonder the Body Sect was willing to form an alliance with the Heaven Dou Empire."
"With such a genius holding the fort, the Heaven Dou Empire will have no worries for the next century."
At this point,
Xu Jiawei's tone gained a hint of bitterness.
"Meanwhile, in our Star Luo Empire, among the younger generation's prodigies, other than you, there is not a single one worth mentioning..."
Xu Jiujiu stood beside him.
Her beautiful eyes were also filled with disbelief.
After freezing for a moment, she hurriedly asked:
"Brother, Long Aotian's talent has already far surpassed those from Shrek Academy. Should we change our ally and choose the Heaven Dou Empire?"
Xu Jiawei pondered for a moment before shaking his head.
"No rush."
"Even with Long Aotian's talent, he can only rank eleventh. There may still be people from Shrek Academy among the top ten prodigies."
"We can decide after the entire Heavenly Pride Ranking has been revealed."
"The Body Sect has truly cultivated quite an extraordinary youngster."
Shrek Academy, within the Sea God Pavilion.
Yan Shaozhe suddenly felt a growing sense of crisis.
The talent Long Aotian had displayed was simply too terrifying. There was a strong chance that the Heaven Dou Empire would seize the Soul Master Tournament championship five years later.
The title of the continent's number one academy would no longer belong to Shrek.
Mu En watched Long Aotian's figure on the Sky Screen, a trace of gravity flashing through his eyes.
His voice was hoarse and low.
"This child called Long Aotian will never achieve less than Du Busi in the future."
Heaven Dou Empire,
Within the Iron Blood Sect.
Tang Ya had devoured every corpse within the Iron Blood Sect.
Her Soul Power had also risen to level 50, leaving her only one soul ring away from breaking through to the Soul King realm.
Bei Bei remained by her side.
He felt no sympathy whatsoever for the Iron Blood Sect's disciples.
"Xiaoya, the Tang Sect's great vengeance has been avenged. It is time for us to return to the academy."
"Once the All-Continent High-Level Soul Master Tournament ends, we can begin rebuilding the Tang Sect..."
Tang Ya shifted slightly and glanced into the distance.
"It seems some people want to keep us here."
As soon as she spoke,
Bei Bei sensed two fluctuations of Soul Power appearing outside the gate.
Moreover, both of these Soul Power signatures felt especially familiar. They had both appeared on the Sky Screen!
The two of them looked toward the gate together.
Sure enough, they saw Long Aotian and Wei Na.
At the same time,
The Sky Screen's voice continued:
[Ding!] [Beginning the distribution of Long Aotian's rewards!] [Rewarding Long Aotian by upgrading his Body Martial Soul to 'Gold Grade'!] [Rewarding Long Aotian with one compatible head soul bone (sixty thousand years)!] [...]
Energy from the Sky Screen shot forth, enveloping Long Aotian.
Taking this opportunity, All Living Beings saw the scene within the scroll of Long Aotian and Wei Na confronting Tang Ya and Bei Bei.
Above the Iron Blood Sect,
Du Busi burst into hearty laughter and said loudly, "Xuan Zi, did you see that? This is the prodigy of my Body Sect!"
"If your student cannot even get past Aotian, don't even think about leaving!"
Xuan Zi: "..."
The Sky Screen's voice still echoed over the continent.
The next moment,
A golden pillar of light descended from the heavens and enveloped Long Aotian.
Yet Long Aotian paid it no attention.
His gaze locked firmly onto Tang Ya, a chill flashing through his eyes.
"An Evil Soul Master should not exist on the soil of the Heaven Dou Empire."
His voice was low and calm, yet it carried unquestionable authority.
Perhaps because Bei Bei was at her side,
Tang Ya still retained a trace of reason. She gave a cold laugh and said in a deep voice, "That depends on whether you have the ability."
After saying that,
She looked at Bei Bei and spoke softly:
"They came for me. Bei Bei, don't do anything foolish. Xiao Yuhao and the others are still waiting for you to return."
Bei Bei shook his head slightly, his eyes filled with affection as he looked at Tang Ya.
"They are waiting for you too. No matter what, I will not abandon you."
After saying that,
A thought stirred in Bei Bei's mind.
Dazzling golden lightning instantly bathed his entire body, crackling loudly.
Seeing this,
Long Aotian said no more.
His body moved, shooting forward like a bolt of lightning!
"Demon Ape Transformation!"
The first soul skill activated.
Long Aotian's body instantly swelled in size, his muscles bulging and veins standing out.
The wild aura emanating from him made the two feel as though they were facing a thousand-year Soul Beast!
"Watch out!"
Bei Bei's expression changed abruptly as he immediately stepped in front of Tang Ya.
Golden dragon scales covered his entire body, while the power of lightning gathered in his palm and blasted toward Long Aotian!
"Tyrant Emperor Thunder Domain!"
