Everyone, next we should compare the two protagonists. Since both were born on Douluo Continent and adapted to its cultivation system, let's begin by comparing their innate Soul Power.

As everyone knew, people on Douluo Continent all had Martial Souls, but not everyone possessed innate Soul Power. Only those with innate Soul Power could become Spirit Masters.

The higher one's innate Soul Power, the stronger one's abilities as a Spirit Master. For example, Qian Renxue, the Young Master of Spirit Hall, possessed Innate Level 20 Soul Power.

Countless people present were stunned.

Hold on. Some people only had single-digit Soul Power at birth, while others possessed Innate Full Soul Power, and that was already enough to shock everyone. But Qian Renxue actually had Innate Level 20 Soul Power.

That was just too inhuman.

Feng Xiaotian looked even more bitter after hearing this.

"I always thought I was a genius. Now it seems Innate Full Soul Power is merely the threshold for meeting a true genius."

The people from Shrek Academy below were just as shocked.

"Innate Level 20 Soul Power? Just how strong must she be now?"

"Yeah, that's ridiculously strong. I'm only in the thirties, and she was already at level twenty when she was six."

Tang San was shocked too, and felt a little put out. A mere nobody who wasn't even the protagonist had higher innate Soul Power than him, the protagonist.

She had even eclipsed his brilliance.

No, how could he let himself be outdone?

Tang San's voice turned sour.

"Even if she had Innate Level 20 Soul Power, so what? I... no, she isn't the protagonist. Tang San is."

The people of Shrek Academy: "..."

Now Tang San was getting cocky.

Then, everyone, take a guess: who has higher innate Soul Power, the God King or Dou Di? This is a no-prize guessing game.

"A no-prize guessing game? Then who'd bother guessing?"

The Asura God from the Parallel Timeline rolled his eyes. Without a reward, he couldn't be bothered to answer.

There was no point answering, and nothing to lose by passing.

Ye Tianyun thought of innate Soul Power and the bitterness he'd once felt. He tapped the Divine Throne beneath him and asked the others thoughtfully,

"Why don't you all guess what level my innate Soul Power was?"

"Innate Level 20 Soul Power—no, it must've been Innate Level 30 Soul Power."

The Asura God immediately stepped forward to flatter him.

He could ignore the Live Broadcast Room's question, but he would absolutely flatter Ye Tianyun.

God of Destruction: "..."

Please give him back the Asura God he used to know. This Asura God wasn't the one he knew.

"Haha... my innate Soul Power wasn't that high. Instead of telling you exactly how high it was, why don't you just watch the Live Broadcast Room?"

Ye Tianyun laughed, but didn't say.

As he watched the Live Broadcast Room, though, a look of reflection appeared in his eyes.

Back when his innate Soul Power had first been measured, it had shocked everyone and set the wildest record in history.

Main Timeline.

Yu Xiaogang recovered from the blow and looked up at the Live Broadcast Room in the sky, muttering to himself,

"Since Dou Di is so powerful, his innate Soul Power must be higher than Xiao San's. He probably just got lucky."

Of course, although Yu Xiaogang thought this, he didn't answer. There was no reward, for one thing, and he didn't want to discourage his disciple Tang San.

"Third Brother, your innate Soul Power is definitely higher than that Dou Di's."

Xiao Wu naturally spoke in Tang San's favor.

Unfortunately, she was only saying that. In her heart, she was thinking of Dou Di.

After all, the stronger one's talent, the stronger one's abilities. That was practically common knowledge on Douluo Continent. It just went to show how narrow-minded the people of Douluo Continent were.

Many people answered correctly, and many answered incorrectly. Now, let's reveal the correct answer. Comparing their innate Soul Power, Tang San came out on top—not just by a little, either.

The people from the Main Timeline of Douluo Continent were a little stunned.

Tang San had come out several steps ahead in innate Soul Power, so how had the future Tang San lost to Ye Tianyun?

"Wait, Tang San's innate Soul Power was that strong? And he still lost to the Dou Di from the other side?"

"Ah, some people have strong innate Soul Power, but their comprehension might be lacking. Maybe that Dou Di from the other side developed slowly at first, then grew much faster later on."

Everyone was talking among themselves. They might as well have had two words written on their faces:

Useless.

Only someone useless could lose to another person despite having the advantage of higher innate Soul Power.

Tang San was so angry his teeth ground together, and he muttered to himself,

"Impossible. My innate Soul Power is so high, so how could I lose? It's fake. It has to be fake."

He couldn't figure it out. He just couldn't understand.

He even had the Mysterious Heaven Skill, an outstanding secret manual of the Tang Sect that could help him cultivate and raise his Soul Power. How could he still have lost?

Tang San wasn't the only one who couldn't understand. The God Kings in the Divine Realm couldn't figure it out either.

The Asura God curiously asked the other gods,

"How do you think that Dou Di from the other side managed it? How could he surpass the God King of our world?"

A gleam flashed in the God of Destruction's eyes, as if he'd thought of something.

"Could he have encountered the Creator God's legacy? Maybe that's how he surpassed us."

This world had a Creator God too. They were said to surpass even the God Kings, but that was only a rumor. They had no proof.

Still, the legend meant that the Creator God might really exist.

The Asura God thought it over and decided it made sense.

"You're right. That so-called Dou Di from the Parallel Timeline must have obtained the Creator God's legacy. Then there should be a Creator God's legacy in our timeline too, right?"

At these words, all the gods around them revealed greedy looks.

Some of them were Second-Class Gods, some Third-Class Gods, and some were God Officials. Who among them didn't want to advance?

They all wanted to obtain the Creator God's legacy, become the Creator God, and surpass the other God Kings.

The Live Broadcast Room continued playing in the sky.

Tang San hadn't actually possessed Innate Full Soul Power. When he was born, his innate Soul Power was less than level one. By the time he was six, it had reached at most level five. But as a transmigrator from another world, when the Asura God brought him here, he had obtained cultivation manuals from that other world.

On top of that, he'd been naturally clever and had started cultivating the manuals at a very young age, accumulating enough Soul Power. That was why he possessed Innate Full Soul Power when his Martial Soul awakened.

When Tang Hao heard the Sky Screen's words, he immediately confirmed that his son Tang San was the protagonist of Douluo Continent.

Tang San had gone to the mountains to cultivate ever since he was little. Tang Hao thought his son didn't know, but in truth, he had known all along.

Divine Realm.

The God of Destruction looked at the Asura God once more.

"Asura, didn't you say you had nothing to do with this? Was Tang San's transmigration your doing? And you sent him to Douluo Continent?"

The Asura God was embarrassed. As the God of Law Enforcement, he'd broken the law, and now the God of Destruction knew about it.

How could he enforce the law after this?

Even the God of Life scolded him.

"Asura, you're the God of Law Enforcement, yet you broke the law yourself. That's going too far. How are you supposed to manage the gods after this?"

The other gods said nothing because their ranks were too low, but in their hearts, they were dissatisfied with the Asura God.

That's it?

He had the nerve to call himself the God of Law Enforcement and keep them in line. He had no shame.
