Qian Daoliu: My Era Has Arrived

Qian Daoliu's brows arched, and his god-level spiritual power, like an invisible giant hand, reached straight into Huo Yuhao's sea of consciousness. Ignoring the obstruction of the Skydream Iceworm, the Ice Empress, and the Snow Empress, he snatched out the soul of Electrolux, which was wreathed in black, deathly aura.

His divine sense swept over it, instantly discerning the past of both Electrolux and the boy before him—a being from another world, a necromancer.

Qian Daoliu let out a cold snort, and golden light erupted from his fingertips. Amidst shrill, mournful wails, Electrolux's soul was crushed into dust, transforming into energy that merged into his own body.

Seeing that Huo Yuhao had actually taken such a necromantic creature as his master, Qian Daoliu's gaze turned icy, and he prepared to finish the boy off with a casual strike.

Just as Qian Daoliu's palm wind descended, a sharp, imposing figure tore through the air. This person used his own body as his martial soul, his entire being radiating a scorching divine light as he forcibly blocked Qian Daoliu's lethal blow.

"Your Excellency, please stay your hand!"

With his offensive blocked, Qian Daoliu could not help but knit his brows and question the newcomer: "Who are you, and why do you stop This Seat from slaying a fallen one?"

The newcomer was burly yet gaunt, with disheveled, grizzled hair and skin covered in dark purple venomous markings. A mist of bone-eroding poison swirled around him, and his eyes were fierce and intimidating.

He looked at Qian Daoliu with a wary expression and said, "Du Busi of the Body Sect. May I ask for your name, Your Excellency? I implore you to spare this child."

The man was none other than the sect master of the Body Sect, Du Busi.

Hearing this, Qian Daoliu's god-level spiritual sense continuously scanned the Du Busi before him. Finding that his cultivation was not insignificant and that there was no evil aura about him, he patiently replied, "This Seat is the Angel Douluo, Qian Daoliu. Since you possess no evil aura, I shall spare you for today, but this fallen one must die!"

Qian Daoliu was incomparably overbearing, his holy aura radiating in all directions.

High in the stands of the competition arena, two terrifying figures stared fixedly at Qian Daoliu on the field.

"Damn it, once I complete the final step of the Death God, I will make this Angel soul master wish he were dead!"

One of the two figures, a woman, roared madly at Qian Daoliu as he slaughtered the fallen ones on the field, yet she dared not provoke him in the slightest at this moment.

"Long Xiaoyao, where are you going? Come back!"

The other terrifying figure, seeing that Qian Daoliu was about to kill Huo Yuhao, clearly panicked. He flickered and vanished from where he stood.

"Your Excellency Angel, I beg you to spare this youth."

Facing the immensely powerful Qian Daoliu, Du Busi gritted his teeth, refusing to give up.

Hearing this, Qian Daoliu became slightly interested. "Oh? Give me a reason to spare him."

Du Busi withstood the limit-level pressure that Qian Daoliu was continuously intensifying.

"Your Excellency Angel, it is all because of his martial soul. My Body Sect believes that all body martial souls under heaven are one family. Anyone who uses their own flesh and blood as a martial soul is of the same lineage as our sect. We are duty-bound to protect them with all our might and will not allow outsiders to slaughter them."

Du Busi's body was being continuously compressed by the god-level pressure, yet he still refused to abandon Huo Yuhao.

"Interesting! Your Body Sect's philosophy is not bad, but it is not enough to make This Seat spare a fallen one!"

"You may leave!"

"But he must die today."

With that, Qian Daoliu waved his hand and sent Du Busi flying.

Qian Daoliu merely expressed appreciation for the Body Sect's philosophy, but he had no intention of giving up on killing Huo Yuhao.

Just as Qian Daoliu intended to proceed with killing Huo Yuhao, A ragged, slovenly old man stepped through the air. He released his martial soul, instantly devouring Qian Daoliu's casual strike, and stood horizontally before Huo Yuhao to block the majority of Qian Daoliu's pressure, shouting in a deep voice to intervene.

"Who dares to harm my Shrek Academy student!"

At the same time, in the sky above and outside the arena, countless soul masters wielding strange weapons were surrounding Qian Daoliu, Tang Chen, and Bo Saixi.

The slovenly old man had originally intended to transform into the Taotie Divine Ox to scare Qian Daoliu off, but once he actually reached him, he realized he could not see through Qian Daoliu's cultivation at all.

The old man knew he had encountered a tough opponent today; Qian Daoliu was likely also a rank-99 Limit Douluo. Thus, he set aside his usual uninhibited demeanor and searched his mind for information regarding Limit Douluos with Angel martial souls. After searching for a long time and finding no such person on the Douluo Continent, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and negotiate with Qian Daoliu.

"Elder Xuan! You must avenge Sister Xiao Ya and Sister Xiao Tao!"

Seeing that the newcomer was Xuan Zi, the leader of the Shrek Academy team, Huo Yuhao immediately cried out to him.

He stared fixedly at Qian Daoliu, his eyes bloodshot and splitting, his body surging with malice. The killing intent in his eyes burned like a raging fire, and he wished he could tear him to pieces and devour him alive to vent the hatred in his heart.

"Huo Yuhao, shut your mouth!"

Elder Xuan was already annoyed that Huo Yuhao had provoked someone he shouldn't have. Now that Huo Yuhao was still frantically provoking Qian Daoliu, Elder Xuan could not help but scold him.

Seeing that this was the second Super Douluo to rescue the boy today, Qian Daoliu asked with some curiosity, "And who are you? State your name!"

"Xuan Zi of Shrek Academy's Sea God Pavilion! I pay my respects to Your Excellency!"

"Your Excellency, I beg you to spare Huo Yuhao for the sake of Shrek Academy!"

When Elder Xuan mentioned Shrek Academy, he could not hide the pride on his face. In his view, apart from the Holy Spirit Cult and the Body Sect, all other forces on the Douluo Continent would give Shrek Academy some measure of respect.

"Why should This Seat give your Shrek Academy face! Your Shrek Academy? Is it very famous?"

Qian Daoliu's tone was indifferent and his gaze cold. He stared fixedly at the Elder Xuan before him, discovering that he was also a rank-98 Super Douluo, and his martial soul was a peculiar one possessing the aura of a top-tier dragon.

In his heart, he had already equated Shrek Academy with the fallen ones.

Qian Daoliu thought to himself, "Perhaps, if I wish to slay fallen ones to gain soul power and faith in the future, I can pay a visit to Shrek Academy!"

"Your Excellency, I shall assume you are joking with me!"

"Who on the Douluo Continent doesn't know that my Shrek Academy is the number one academy on the continent!"

Xuan Zi saw that Qian Daoliu gave no face to Shrek Academy, as if he had suffered a great insult. He hurriedly contacted Du Busi, who was not far away: "Du Busi, join me in killing the person before us, and I will allow Huo Yuhao to join your Body Sect as well!"

Qian Daoliu, however, grasped the key point of the issue—the number one academy on the continent was Shrek Academy?

Qian Daoliu's god-level pressure was released with a boom, causing the floor beneath Xuan Zi's feet to rustle incessantly. Finally, looking down from above, Qian Daoliu questioned Xuan Zi: "Is the number one academy on the Douluo Continent not the Spirit Hall Spirit Master Academy? Since when has it been your Shrek Academy!"

Qian Daoliu's voice was not loud, but his tone was icy.

Xuan Zi was also stunned, but seeing that Qian Daoliu did not seem to be faking it, he dared not ask him directly.

Thus, Xuan Zi released his Taotie Divine Ox martial soul to protect himself and Huo Yuhao tightly. Bearing the pressure, he said to Qian Daoliu in a deep voice: "Your Excellency, the Spirit Hall Academy was destroyed ten thousand years ago along with Spirit Hall by my Shrek Academy's ancestor, the Sea God Tang San, in alliance with the forces of the continent!"

Xuan Zi attempted to use the names of Shrek Academy and the Sea God to scare Qian Daoliu away.

"Spirit Hall was destroyed ten thousand years ago?"

Qian Daoliu's figure swayed, and he muttered to himself, his face revealing an expression of disbelief.

"What? Is the Sea God not Lord Poseidon? How could it be some Tang San?"

Not far away, Bo Saixi was also full of disbelief; they had actually arrived at the Douluo Continent ten thousand years in the future.

But Qian Daoliu quickly recovered.

"Then this boy deserves to die even more!" Qian Daoliu's tone was firm, his eyes filled with loathing for the fallen.

As he spoke, the knuckles of Qian Daoliu's fingers cracked, and the phantom of an Angel emerged behind him. No longer intending to hold back, nine soul rings—"Black, black, black, black, black, black, black, black, red!"—lit up around him, and he prepared to unleash a soul skill toward Huo Yuhao.
