"Is Tang San the protagonist of our universe?"
"Who is this Tang San? Why can he become the protagonist of our universe? And who is Asura God?"
"I'm not sure about Asura God, but he must be a god. Who would've thought? There are actually gods in this world."
Across Douluo Continent, countless people discussed who this Tang San was.
Those named Tang San all looked up at the sky, as though they themselves were the protagonist, destined to become gods of Douluo Continent.
By contrast, the major factions all furrowed their brows. They certainly didn't want a protagonist to appear; that would inevitably trigger a major reshuffling of power.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
Ning Fengzhi sighed from the heart:
"It looks like Douluo Continent is about to descend into chaos. I wonder what it'll become."
Beside him, Sword Douluo suddenly remembered something and immediately reminded Ning Fengzhi:
"Fengzhi, don't you remember? There's a Tang San at Rongrong's school. He also has Innate Full Soul Power, and he's very strong. Could he be the protagonist?"
Those words struck a chord with Ning Fengzhi.
That was true. He was named Tang San and had Innate Full Soul Power. How could there be so many coincidences in the world?
Ning Fengzhi was overjoyed, his spirits soaring:
"Right, there's a very good chance it's that Tang San. From what we can see, Tang San is on our side. We can rely on him in the future."
Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo both breathed a sigh of relief. They weren't afraid of Tang San himself; they were afraid he might be their enemy. At least for now, he wasn't.
The Clear Sky Sect.
Tang Xiao thought of his nephew and couldn't help murmuring to himself:
"My nephew is named Tang San too. Maybe he's the protagonist of Douluo Continent."
Beside him, the Second Elder couldn't help laughing.
Blazing Sun Douluo mocked him without the slightest restraint:
"Chief, stop dreaming. He's probably just someone with the same name. How could Tang Hao's son, Tang San, possibly be the protagonist?"
Neither of them believed that Tang Hao's son was the protagonist.
"Exactly. If Tang Hao's son is the protagonist, I'll do a headstand while washing my hair."
"What's a headstand while washing your hair? I'll use the toilet upside down, spin 180 degrees, and do twenty full rotations."
The elders were cocky. None of them believed that Tang Hao's son, Tang San, could be the protagonist, the one chosen by Asura God.
They had so many prodigies, yet not one of them had caught Asura God's eye.
"You..."
Tang Xiao was so angry he couldn't speak.
In Spirit Hall, Bibi Dong felt uneasy. She turned and began issuing orders:
"Chrysanthemum Douluo, Ghost Douluo, have every branch report all information about Tang San immediately. Whenever someone undergoes Martial Soul Awakening and there's a Tang San, make sure it's reported."
"Yes, Your Holiness."
Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo both knew how serious this was. The protagonist of Douluo Continent was the child of destiny.
If he held a grudge against Spirit Hall, it would spell disaster for them.
Over at Shrek Academy.
Oscar was beaming with joy. He turned and said:
"Third Brother, you must be the protagonist. You have Innate Full Soul Power. There aren't many people better than you."
Dai Mubai was equally ecstatic. With a protagonist for a brother, did they still need to fear the Star Luo Imperial Family?
"Exactly, Little San. Throughout history, people with Innate Full Soul Power have been few and far between, and there are even fewer named Tang San. You're the protagonist."
Tang San had still been wondering whether it might just be someone with the same name.
But after hearing everyone's reminder, he decided they had a point. There was a very good chance he was the protagonist.
At the thought, Tang San held his head high, smugness gleaming in his eyes. He was the protagonist of Douluo Continent.
Parallel Timeline.
When Asura God heard that the protagonist was Ye Tianyun, the eternal emperor, he immediately understood. This was their Heavenly Emperor.
He stepped forward and fell to his knees in submission:
"Congratulations, Heavenly Emperor, on becoming the eternal emperor and the protagonist of our Douluo World. Your radiance will shine throughout the entire Douluo Universe."
What a sycophant.
God of Destruction cursed inwardly. Asura God really knew how to ingratiate himself. He'd become Ye Tianyun's number-one bootlicker simply by fawning and sucking up.
But he immediately stepped forward too, bowing low:
"May the Heavenly Emperor unify the universe, reign for ten thousand generations, and live forever!"
"Ha ha ha... Well said! My dear subjects, you shall all be rewarded."
Ye Tianyun roared with laughter. He might hate treacherous ministers, but he had to admit, they sure knew how to say the right things.
Besides, in the face of absolute strength, there was no need to worry about treacherous ministers. They couldn't beat you anyway.
[Before opening the Live Broadcast Room, let's have a prize quiz. Between Tang San from Douluo Universe No. 1 and Ye Tianyun from the Douluo Parallel Universe, one is a God King and the other a Dou Di. Which one is stronger?] [Before answering, it's worth mentioning that the first three correct answers will receive a reward, while anyone who answers incorrectly will be punished.]
Did anyone really need to ask?
Everyone knew the answer to such an obvious question.
Asura God from the Parallel Timeline answered first:
"Our Heavenly Emperor is the strongest."
He didn't know about the other timelines, but he knew this one. Back then, he'd been the strongest God King and had personally intervened to help their Tang San—his successor, who was also a God King.
But Ye Tianyun had beaten him black and blue.
It was a good thing he'd knelt early and surrendered at once, calling Ye Tianyun Grandpa. Otherwise, just like Tang San, his soul would now be inside Ye Tianyun's Human Emperor Banner.
Then he wouldn't be able to yap here.
"Damn, that was fast."
God of Destruction cursed, then answered:
"The Heavenly Emperor is the strongest. His radiance shines upon us and guides the Douluo God Realm forward."
"I also think the Heavenly Emperor is the strongest."
Ji Dong was the third to answer, and he was quick about it.
[Correct. Each of you receives one Super Divine Artifact.]
A Super Divine Artifact fell from the sky for each of them, each one taking a different form.
Asura God clutched his Super Divine Artifact, his smile stiffening.
A moment later, he hurled it to the ground.
"Damn, I'm a mighty Dou Zun. What use do I have for these Super Divine Artifacts?"
Back when Ye Tianyun hadn't made it big yet, Asura God would've been overjoyed to receive a Super Divine Artifact.
But ever since he'd pledged himself to Ye Tianyun and started learning a new cultivation system, he'd become a Dou Zun. Super Divine Artifacts were completely useless to him now.
They were nowhere near as good as the Earth-Tier Dou Artifact Ye Tianyun had bestowed on him.
That thing barely counted as Mysterious-Tier Mid-Grade.
"It's not bad. I can reward my subordinates with it later."
Although God of Destruction found it hard to accept, it had been free. He didn't think the Sky Screen's reward was that great.
He glanced at Asura God's Super Divine Artifact, which was still lying on the ground. Well, if nobody wanted it...
"Come to think of it, since you don't want it, why not give it to me? I have plenty of gods under me."
With that, he reached out to take it.
Asura God slapped his hand away.
He hurriedly picked up the Super Divine Artifact.
"I can't give this to you."
He thought God of Destruction had a point. He had no use for it himself, but he could still reward his subordinates with it. It was a First-Tier Super Artifact, after all.
Ye Tianyun smiled faintly, not taking it to heart. He was very generous toward his subordinates. As long as they didn't cross a fundamental line, he could usually forgive them.
That was his unique charm, and the reason the gods submitted to him.
