Yu Xiaogang nodded in satisfaction.
"Not bad."
"Bibi Dong has only cultivated for a few decades longer than you."
"Your talents are no worse than hers. Your future holds limitless possibilities."
Flender adjusted his glasses but ultimately said nothing.
Confidence was a good thing.
Too much confidence made it easy to overlook the gap.
Papal Hall.
Bibi Dong watched the scene of Slaughter City, a trace of reminiscence surfacing in her eyes.
She had never mentioned that experience to anyone.
In Slaughter City, every day was spent killing or being killed.
Even while sleeping, she had to guard against attackers lurking in the shadows.
Now, the Heavenly Screen had displayed all of it.
Bibi Dong gripped the Pope's scepter.
"It even knows about my identity as a Killing God."
"How much more can this ranking uncover?"
The moment that thought arose in her mind, the Heavenly Screen gave its answer.
Black-purple radiance surged from the depths of the image.
A massive shadow of the Rakshasa God appeared behind Bibi Dong.
Evil, death, slaughter.
The three forces enveloped heaven and earth at once.
Throughout Spirit City, countless Soul Masters dropped to their knees.
Even the Titled Douluo within Papal Hall felt suppression stemming from the very level of life itself.
Majestic words appeared line after line.
[Bibi Dong has obtained the Rakshasa God Inheritance.] [She has currently completed several Rakshasa God Trials.] [With the aid of the divine trial's power, her Soul Power has reached Level 98.] [Overall evaluation: exceptional talent, resolute character, boundless potential, and the aptitude to become a god.]
Bibi Dong stood frozen before her throne.
She could accept the exposure of her experiences in Slaughter City.
She had barely endured the exposure of her Twin Martial Souls as well.
But the Rakshasa God Inheritance was her most important secret.
Even within Spirit Hall, few knew that she was undergoing divine trials.
Now, the entire continent knew.
Bibi Dong lowered her head and glanced at her luxurious papal gown.
"If this evaluation continues, all my trump cards will be stripped bare."
No one in the hall paid attention to those words.
Their entire focus was occupied by the four words "aptitude to become a god."
Golden Crocodile Douluo abruptly rose to his feet.
"Rakshasa God Inheritance!"
"You have already obtained a Godhood inheritance?"
Bibi Dong looked at Golden Crocodile Douluo.
"The Heavenly Screen has made it perfectly clear."
Golden Crocodile Douluo opened his mouth, then sat back down.
The other worshippers wore varying expressions.
Gods.
They were existences that even Titled Douluo could only look up to.
Qian Daoliu had served the Angel God for many years, yet he had remained merely the Angel God's High Priest.
Bibi Dong had actually already begun a Godhood trial.
Once she completed every divine trial, Spirit Hall would have a true god.
At that point, even Worship Hall could only bow to her.
Clear Sky Sect.
Tang Xiao's body stiffened in place.
The hatred on the Seventh Elder's face had been replaced by fear.
"Aptitude to become a god."
"Will Bibi Dong become a god in the future?"
An elder murmured, "How can mortals possibly contend against gods?"
"If she completes her divine trials, what will Clear Sky Sect have to resist Spirit Hall?"
Tang Xiao looked at the elders present.
Not a trace of anticipation for reopening the sect's gates remained on their faces.
After a long silence, he finally spoke.
"From today onward, seal all roads leading in and out of the sect."
"Without my command, no disciple may leave."
This time, the Seventh Elder did not object.
"The Sect Master is right."
"Clear Sky Sect should continue remaining sealed."
Before Tang Chen returned, Clear Sky Sect absolutely could not appear before Spirit Hall.
Otherwise, what awaited them would likely be the calamity of sect annihilation.
The two great empires were equally shaken.
Xue Ye immediately summoned the imperial court's senior officials.
The Xing Luo Emperor also issued a secret decree at once.
A state letter from Star Luo Empire was swiftly delivered to Heaven Dou Empire.
Before Bibi Dong had even become a god, the two great empires were already struggling to contend against Spirit Hall.
If they waited until she completed the Rakshasa God Trial, even an alliance between the two empires would be meaningless.
Before a god, the number of soldiers could not change the outcome of battle at all.
Xue Ye did not put down the letter for a long while after reading it.
"Star Luo can no longer sit still either."
Prince Xue Xing said, "Your Majesty, the conflict between our two nations can be set aside for now."
"Spirit Hall is the greatest threat."
Xue Ye nodded slightly.
"Reply to Star Luo Empire."
"Heaven Dou is willing to send an envoy to discuss an alliance."
The evaluation scene on the Heavenly Screen gradually faded.
The shadow of the Rakshasa God dispersed as well.
[Supreme Powerhouse Ranking, tenth place: Bibi Dong. Evaluation complete.] [Heavenly Dao rewards will now be distributed.]
Everyone's attention was drawn back to it.
Bibi Dong possessed such terrifying strength and talent.
What reward could she obtain?
[Rogue Soul Emperor: The rewards are finally being handed out!] [Elephant Armor Sect Master Huyan Zhen: Even the reward for tenth place won't be simple.] [Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect Master Yu Yuanzhen: If the reward raises Soul Power by one level, Bibi Dong could directly reach Level 99.] [Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan: After receiving the reward, Her Holiness will surely advance even further!] [Clear Sky Sect Seventh Elder: The Heavenly Dao had better be fair. It cannot let Spirit Hall dominate alone!]
Within Shrek Academy.
Yu Xiaogang also raised his head, his eyes filled with anticipation.
The Heavenly Dao Ranking possessed the ability to perceive every secret across the continent.
The rewards it bestowed would surely be extraordinary.
If they could determine the type of rewards, perhaps they could prepare in advance for the rankings to come.
Ma Hongjun swallowed.
"Could it directly reward a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring?"
Oscar said, "Bibi Dong is already Level 98. A Soul Ring would be useless to her."
Dai Mubai guessed, "Maybe it's a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone."
Everyone offered all kinds of guesses.
Tang San, however, kept staring at the Heavenly Screen.
The Heavenly Dao rewards were finally about to appear.
The golden Heavenly Screen slowly parted.
Three clusters of light floated above the heavens.
One was pure gold.
One was dark purple.
One was snow-white.
Across the continent, countless living beings held their breaths at the same time.
[Supreme Powerhouse Ranking, tenth-place reward.] [Innate Soul Power increased by five levels.] [Divine Artifact: Rakshasa Sword.] [One Heavenly Dao Marrow-Cleansing Pill.]
Those three short lines sent the entire continent into an uproar.
[Heaven Dou Empire Soul Master: Innate Soul Power can be increased after birth?] [Star Luo Empire Soul Master: Divine Artifact! That is a weapon used by gods!] [Rogue Soul Emperor: Tenth place gets a Divine Artifact? Has this ranking gone insane?] [Sea Horse Douluo: The Rakshasa Sword should complement the Rakshasa Godhood. With this sword, Bibi Dong's divine trials will surely proceed far more smoothly.]
Within Heaven Dou Palace.
Xue Ye abruptly rose to his feet.
"The Divine Artifact, Rakshasa Sword!"
"Bibi Dong was already close to becoming a Peerless Douluo. How strong will she become after obtaining a Divine Artifact?"
Prince Xue Xing could not answer either.
The increase of Innate Soul Power by five levels was likewise an unprecedented reward.
A Soul Master's Innate Soul Power was determined the moment their Martial Soul awakened.
It determined the speed of cultivation and could also influence the height a Soul Master could reach in the future.
Bibi Dong had originally been one of the continent's greatest geniuses.
If her Innate Soul Power increased by another five levels, what level would her talent reach?
Xue Ye looked toward the final reward.
"What exactly is the Heavenly Dao Marrow-Cleansing Pill?"
