A Single Battle Made Him Famous, and the General of Heavenly Might Was Born! / Shui Yue'er, Heartbroken
Ghost Douluo turned into a shadow and rushed toward Xiao Wu. Just as he was about to reach her, a giant sword blocked his way.
"Chen Xin, are you really going to get involved in this mess and oppose Spirit Hall?"
Ghost Douluo emerged from the shadow and threatened him.
"Shrek Academy is a guest of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. Whoever dares harm them is an enemy of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect!"
After saying this, Sword Douluo charged at Ghost Douluo, Seven Kill Sword in hand!
At that moment, Chrysanthemum Douluo was dealing with Dugu Bo, while Ghost Douluo was fighting Sword Douluo. They were all locked in combat.
"Take your time fighting!"
"Tang San, your life is mine!"
"Fourth Soul Skill, Blazing Sun Cross Slash!"
As soon as Li Jiutian finished speaking, a cross-shaped slash appeared in the air and shot toward Tang San, who lay on the ground!
Just as the cross-shaped slash was about to hit Tang San and the others, including Yu Xiaogang, a deafening boom suddenly rang out in the sky. Immediately afterward, a giant Clear Sky Hammer appeared in front of them!

"You think you can hurt my son? Get lost!"
A furious roar suddenly rang out from the sky.
"His Excellency Haotian!"
Yu Xiaogang looked up, his expression easing considerably.
At that moment, Tang Hao's Soul Rings appeared one after another: yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, black, red.
"Tang Hao, how dare you run rampant in front of Pope Hall!" Bibi Dong shouted.
"Pope Hall? What a fine Pope Hall! Today, I'll show you what a true Clear Sky Avatar is!"
After Tang Hao finished speaking, his killing intent took the shape of a red giant, dozens of meters tall. It gripped the Clear Sky Hammer and swung it toward Pope Hall!
"Tang Hao, you dare!"
Bibi Dong charged at Tang Hao first, with Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo close behind!
At that moment, the Soul Power of the three of them formed a golden barrier around Pope Hall, gradually forcing the giant Clear Sky Hammer back.
"I'll see this through to the end!"
Tang Hao shouted, and the hammer began to descend again, bit by bit.
"Boom!"
A deafening explosion rang out. The power of Tang Hao's strike was so immense that even standing three kilometers away, the fierce shockwave made it impossible to keep one's eyes open.
The Angel Statue in front of Pope Hall had also been smashed to pieces by that strike.
"Grandmaster, Flender, thank you for teaching my son all these years. I owe you both!"
Tang Hao's deep voice rang out from the sky, but he had already vanished.
"His Excellency Haotian took Xiao San and Xiao Wu away!"
Liu Erlong looked around and exclaimed in surprise.
"For now, they're safest with His Excellency Haotian!"
Grandmaster secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Your Holiness, that Tang Hao is far too arrogant. Should I send men after him?" Ghost Douluo said viciously.
"Silence!"
"If Tang Hao were that easy to deal with, would he still be alive today?"
"Forget it. Now isn't the time to deal with him."
Bibi Dong shook her head helplessly.
"Your Holiness, what should we do with them?" Chrysanthemum Guan asked, pointing at Grandmaster and the others.
"Make them leave Spirit City at once!" Bibi Dong said, then strode toward Spirit Hall's plaza.
"Damn you, Tang Hao! I'll kill you sooner or later!"
Li Jiutian thought to himself, then glanced at Grandmaster and the others.
"Xiao Tian, don't be upset. We're the champions, after all. Come on, let's go back and hold a victory banquet for you!"
Seeing Li Jiutian's brows still tightly furrowed, Hu Liena forcibly pulled him toward Spirit Hall's plaza.
After this battle, Li Jiutian's name resounded across the entire continent. He became a legendary figure known to every household.
At Spirit Hall Academy, only Li Jiutian and Luo Zixuan had escaped injury. The rest had nearly recovered from their wounds.
By contrast, the Shrek Seven Devils were all gravely injured and still unconscious. Whether they would ever wake up was anyone's guess!
Spirit Hall.
In the plaza.
Li Jiutian, Hu Liena, and the others stood in a line of their own accord.
"Children, you did wonderfully in this competition. You've helped Spirit Hall Academy claim the championship for another year!"
"Li Jiutian stood out most of all. Even against the odds, he defeated seven opponents single-handedly. He's someone all of you should look up to."
"These three Ten Thousand Year Soul Bones are your reward. Send a representative to collect them!"
Bibi Dong looked at Li Jiutian with approval, then gently waved her hand. Three Soul Bones floated before her.
The three Soul Bones Spirit Hall had prepared as rewards were the Wisdom Skull Bone of Spirit Concentration, the Blazing Burning Flame Right Arm Bone, and the Swift Wind-Chasing Left Leg Bone.
"Brother Xie Yue, you're the captain of our team. You should go!"
Li Jiutian said modestly.
"Xiao Tian, you gave so much for this championship. Without you, we never could have won!"
"This honor should be yours!"
Xie Yue patted him on the shoulder and replied with a smile.
"That's right, Xiao Tian. Don't turn it down!" Yan chimed in.
"Come on, brother, go already!"
Luo Zixuan pushed him forward.
Li Jiutian exchanged a smile with Luo Zixuan and the others, then walked toward the front.
"Qian Daoliu really did raise an extraordinary monster!"
"You can decide how these three Soul Bones are distributed."
Bibi Dong teased him as Li Jiutian came to stand before her.
"Thank you, Your Holiness!"
Li Jiutian replied respectfully. The three Soul Bones then floated into his hands.
Hu Liena and the others stared at the Soul Bones with shining eyes.
"If none of you object, I'll decide how these three Soul Bones are distributed."
Li Jiutian walked over to the others with the Soul Bones and spoke.
Hu Liena and the others all nodded slightly. This competition had shown them just how great the gap between themselves and Li Jiutian was.
Compared with Li Jiutian, the Golden Generation was like stars against the bright moon, crows against a phoenix. They simply weren't in the same league.
"The Wisdom Skull Bone of Spirit Concentration goes to Nana. It suits her best."
"The Blazing Burning Flame Right Arm Bone goes to Yan, and the Swift Wind-Chasing Left Leg Bone goes to Xie Yue."
Li Jiutian said.
"How can you do that, Xiao Tian? You gave so much for this championship, and now you're getting nothing in return. I can't accept this Soul Bone!"
Hu Liena shook her head slightly and objected.
"Stop arguing. These three Soul Bones really aren't right for me. Besides, there's something I want, but I doubt Your Holiness will agree."
Li Jiutian forced the three Soul Bones into Hu Liena and the others' hands, then turned his gaze toward Bibi Dong.
"Thank you, Xiao Tian. In that case, we won't stand on ceremony!"
Hu Liena held her Soul Bone, happier than words could say.
Xie Yue and Yan were overjoyed as well.
"Xiao Tian, what is it you want? As long as it isn't too outrageous, I can grant it."
Bibi Dong asked with interest.
"Your Holiness, I want you to give me command of one-sixth of Spirit Hall's military forces and appoint me to an official position."
Li Jiutian spoke solemnly.
His words instantly shocked the entire crowd. No one had expected him to have such huge ambitions.
Li Jiutian's reason for doing this was to build an army—and a sect—that would be completely loyal to him.
That way, he could crush Tang San on every front in the future!
Bibi Dong was stunned for a few seconds, then burst into loud laughter. "Excellent! I agree. I appoint you General of Heavenly Might. In Spirit Hall, your status will be second only to mine!"
"Thank you, Your Holiness!"
Li Jiutian replied respectfully.
"Take this Elder Token. It's one of the symbols that proves your identity!"
Bibi Dong tossed a token to Li Jiutian.
Unlike the tokens issued to everyone else, Li Jiutian's Elder Token was made entirely of diamonds and looked extravagantly luxurious.
"With talent like Xiao Tian's in Spirit Hall, I believe it won't be long before we unite the continent!"
A smile appeared at the corner of Bibi Dong's mouth. She then turned and walked into Pope Hall.
"Brother, I can't believe how ambitious you are! You turned down a Soul Bone and asked for power and status instead!"
Luo Zixuan exclaimed.
"I'm not interested in power or empty pageantry. Once I've helped Spirit Hall unite the continent, you'll understand!"
Li Jiutian affectionately patted her on the head and replied.
Chapter 38: Shui Yue'er, Heartbroken
Bibi Dong thought it over afterward.
There was nothing wrong with giving Li Jiutian power. That way, she could bring him over to her side.
From then on, whatever he did, he would have to rely on her, gradually distancing himself from Qian Daoliu.
One month later.
Outside Spirit City.
On a busy street.
Li Jiutian and Luo Zixuan walked along the roadside like celebrities. Wherever they went, people crowded around them.
