Tang Chen Is Alarmed, Spirit Hall's Two Peerless Douluo

Qian Xunji raised an eyebrow and smiled.

He pressed Jiang Qingyu's shoulder like this.

Dong'er shouldn't blame her teacher now, right?

Just as Jiang Qingyu was about to answer, Tang Chen's aura erupted in the plaza.

The three of them fixed their eyes on Tang Chen.

With such an imposing aura, Tang Chen clearly had no intention of being suppressed.

As the first-generation Clear Sky Hammer wielder, his strength could not be underestimated, and he possessed his own pride. But one Peerless Douluo was clearly no match before two Peerless Douluo, a peak Douluo, and quite a few Super Douluo.

"Didn't you want to have a go, Tang Chen? Then come and try!" Qian Daoliu was in an excellent mood.

"Hmph, then let's try!" Tang Chen snorted coldly.

Qian Daoliu and Tang Chen flew into the air and began their standoff.

Holy light bathed Qian Daoliu. The next moment, the Six-Winged Angel martial soul appeared, and nine soul rings—eight black and one red—rose beneath his feet.

"Tang Chen!"

"Qian Daoliu!"

The two shouted angrily.

The Angel Sacred Sword appeared in Qian Daoliu's hand, while Tang Chen gripped the Clear Sky Hammer. The two immediately clashed in the sky.

Both were among the earliest Peerless Douluo: Qian Daoliu, invincible in the sky, and Tang Chen, invincible on the ground.

Their battle was no joke. Every attack and collision was earth-shattering.

"I have to admit, this is pretty exciting!"

After finishing her cake, A Yin took some fruit and sat to one side, watching with great relish.

Spirit Hall was really nice. There was so much delicious food here. Later, she would ask whether she could join. Surely someone would appreciate her Blue Silver Emperor martial soul.

The two fought without pause. Tang Chen had used nearly all of the Clear Sky Hammer's secret arts, with only Ring Explosion left unused. But unless it was absolutely necessary, he would never use Ring Explosion.

"Chaotic Wind Hammer Technique!"

Tang Chen's gaze hardened as both arms exerted force, swinging the Clear Sky Hammer again and again at Qian Daoliu.

Qian Daoliu immediately activated Angel's Protection.

Under every hammer blow, Qian Daoliu was forced back repeatedly.

Below, Tang Hao and Tang Xiao saw how powerful their grandfather was and became certain that Tang Chen would win.

At most, Qian Daoliu was just a somewhat stronger mangy bird.

But Tang Hao and Tang Xiao had not realized that it was not the Clear Sky Hammer martial soul that was formidable, but Tang Chen himself.

Tang Chen had created the Nine Absolute Techniques of Clear Sky, Sky-Piercing Strike, and the Chaotic Wind Hammer Technique. He had even created the nearly bug-like ability known as Ring Explosion.

It could be said that he had practically taken the Clear Sky Hammer to its limits.

Every strike from a Peerless Douluo shook Spirit Hall to its core.

While Bibi Dong and Qian Xunji were engrossed in the battle, Jiang Qingyu decisively pulled his arm free.

The arm in her embrace vanished. She instinctively tried to grab it again, but when she met Jiang Qingyu's gaze, she immediately withdrew her hand obediently.

Bibi Dong did not feel she had lost out anyway. After all, she had already gotten what she wanted.

Golden Crocodile Douluo also activated a soul power barrier to protect everyone from being caught in the aftermath.

Under Tang Chen's fierce assault, Qian Daoliu had already found an opening. Three pairs of wings spread wide, and immense soul power surged forth.

The Angel Sacred Sword was raised above his head.

"Ninth Soul Skill, Angel's Descent!"

Massive angelic power enveloped an area several miles wide.

Tang Chen was forced back. Seeing such a powerful scene, he knew that this time, he had no choice but to use Ring Explosion.

"Ring Explosion!"

His first through fifth soul rings began to explode. After the Ring Explosion, Tang Chen's power rose accordingly. He swung the Clear Sky Hammer and collided with Qian Daoliu's strongest strike.

The enormous shockwave made Tang Chen's heart tremble. During their last battle, Qian Daoliu had not been nearly this strong. What fortuitous encounter had he found? This was even more outrageous than Tang Chen had imagined.

In an instant, both men were sent flying backward. Tang Hao fell to the ground, his abdomen twisting violently as blood seeped from the corner of his mouth.

Qian Daoliu, in contrast, had only suffered minor injuries. He was not badly wounded like Tang Chen.

Although no clear victor had been decided, anyone with discernment could see that Tang Hao had already lost in some respect during this battle.

Qian Daoliu landed on the ground, withdrew his martial soul, and smiled. "Brother Tang, that was truly a satisfying battle."

Tang Chen withdrew his martial soul as well and said, "Brother Qian, you really know how to hide your strength. I never expected you to grow stronger again."

"Not at all. Brother Tang is no slouch either. Since that's the case, everyone, let's head to the banquet hall and have a proper drink."

Qian Daoliu invited everyone to Spirit Hall's banquet hall, and naturally, Tang Chen had to give him this courtesy.

If he left now, he would seem rather unfriendly.

The upper three sects and lower four sects headed for the banquet hall.

That battle had left everyone's hearts pounding. Being able to witness a battle between Peerless Douluo was a once-in-a-thousand-years opportunity.

Qian Xunji followed the group toward the banquet hall as well.

Yet amid the crowded crowd, Jiang Qingyu spotted someone familiar.

She actually dared to come!

"Delicious food, and there'll even be wine in the banquet hall. I can give it a try. Maybe it'll taste even better than the stuff outside."

A Yin's mind was full of food. She had truly eaten to her heart's content.

Just as she was enjoying herself, a hand suddenly patted her shoulder.

A Yin turned around and jumped in fright.

"Y-Your Highness, Holy Son!"

Shouldn't he have gone to the banquet hall? How had he noticed her?

"Miss, what a coincidence. After we parted ways in Heaven Dou City, we meet again." Jiang Qingyu teased.

A Yin's heart tightened. I absolutely can't let myself be suppressed. I'm already in my mature form now—why should I be afraid of Jiang Qingyu?

A Yin put on an imposing front. "Yes, I never expected that the person I met last time would turn out to be the future Holy Son."

Bibi Dong said, "Hey, hey, hey. Qingyu saved you last time, so why did you just run away?"

A Yin had long expected this question. "Sorry, I forgot to bring in the clothes at home, so I rushed off. Thank you, Holy Son, for saving me that day."

"Looks like you're quite the little glutton."

"W-Who's a glutton?!" A Yin retorted.

"You're still denying it? The cream around your mouth and that bulging belly—if that isn't gluttony, what is?"

Jiang Qingyu exposed A Yin's disguise.

"What?"

A Yin touched the cream around her mouth, then looked down. Her stomach really was bulging. She immediately twirled her hair, somewhat embarrassed. "Hehe, you found out."

"You really are interesting." Bibi Dong found A Yin quite amusing. She was rather like a clever little sprite.

"Your Highness, Holy Maiden, please don't tease me." A Yin explained, "I don't have much money and can't afford delicious food. After coming here, I just started eating a lot!"

That reason was perfectly reasonable.

Jiang Qingyu saw through her at once. "Can't afford food? I think you've eaten yourself into poverty."

A Yin panicked inwardly. Her little mouth fell open before she quickly retorted, "No, I haven't. I was just too hungry."

"Is that so?"

"Of course it is." A Yin stubbornly refused to admit it.

Jiang Qingyu said, "Then come with me. There is plenty of food in the banquet hall, so eat as much as you like. And my table will have more dishes than the others. There'll be more than enough!"

A Yin's eyes lit up. "Really? That's wonderful! Your Highness, Holy Son, you're such a wonderful person."

With food involved, A Yin's tongue became much smoother, and she was no longer nervous. She called him "Your Highness, Holy Son" in every other sentence.

"Let's go. By the way, what's your name?"

As the three walked, Bibi Dong asked curiously.

"My name is A Yin!"
