History

The Heavenly Screen descended over Douluo Continent after a golden light formed a curtain across the sky. It announced the arrival of the Heavenly Dao Ranking and declared that those listed could receive Heavenly Dao rewards. Its appearance immediately disrupted the continent's existing balance and drew the attention of every major faction. 1

It subsequently began the Supreme Powerhouse Ranking, first revealing Bibi Dong at tenth place. Its review exposed her rank 98 soul power, Twin Martial Souls, Killing God Domain, and Rakshasa God Inheritance—information that had previously been concealed from much of the continent. 5 7 8

The Screen continued to reveal powerhouses from both Douluo and Sun Moon Continents, including the Evil Emperor, Snow Emperor, Deep Sea Demon Whale King, Tang Chen, and Bo Saixi. These reviews established that cultivation age alone does not determine placement; combat power, bloodline, abilities, environmental advantages, and other factors also affect a being's rank. 12 18 25 38 50

Following Bo Saixi's fifth-place review, the Screen revealed Qian Daoliu in fourth place, Di Tian in third place, and Gu Yuena in second place. Qian Daoliu's review publicly displayed his history as Spirit Hall's former Judgment Elder and his subsequent cultivation under Qian Daochen, while Di Tian's review exposed his identity as the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King and the Dragon God's former captain of the guard. 53 55 67 69

Gu Yuena's second-place review expanded the known hierarchy of power by identifying her as the Silver Dragon King and a God King. The Screen then exposed the Dragon God's ancient rise and fall, Gu Yuena's origin from the Dragon God's divided body, and the failed attempt to reach the Genesis Realm. 83 85 86 87

The Screen has also demonstrated that its reviews are not restricted to the present. During Di Tian's review, it displayed a future in which Douluo Continent and Sun Moon Continent collide and the Heaven Dou, Star Luo, and Sun Moon Empires coexist on one landmass. 72

After Gu Yuena received Ancestral Dragon Blood and the Dragon Transformation Pool, attention shifted to the remaining first-place position. The Screen announced that the holder would be revealed in three days and receive the ultimate reward. It subsequently named Qian Daochen first on the Supreme Ranking, moving Qian Daoliu to tears by confirming that his long-missing elder brother was alive. 102 110 146

Qian Daochen's review began with his childhood Martial Soul awakening and years of training with a Remnant Sword. It revealed that repeated sword swings strengthened his body, sword intent, and cultivation, gradually restoring and transforming his initially incomplete Martial Soul. The review also showed his repeated refusal of the Angel God's inheritance and connected him to ancient continental legends, including the founding ancestor of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. 149 151 153 155 156 158 159

The review then exposed Qian Daochen's killing of the Blood God while still possessing Level 99 Soul Power, his creation of two God-Level Soul Skills, and his severing of the passage between the Divine Realm and Douluo Continent. Its final scene showed him seated in a tavern before turning to look outward through the projected image, leaving observers uncertain whether he had perceived the Screen's observation of his past. 157 158 159

The Heavenly Screen announced three first-place rewards: advancement of Qian Daochen's Martial Soul to supreme, a Super God Rank Soul Bone, and a World Tree Sapling capable of developing into an independent world. Before these rewards had truly descended, it declared the Supreme Ranking concluded and announced the Treasure Ranking, covering Douluo Continent's ten greatest treasures and scheduled to begin in three days. 160 161

Ancient and Future Disclosure

The Screen can reveal information beyond contemporary events and ordinary historical records.

• Displayed Di Tian's ancient service under the Dragon God and the long-buried history of the Dragon Clan. 68 69
• Revealed a future continental collision between Douluo Continent and Sun Moon Continent, as well as Di Tian's future attempt to survive the Million-Year Heavenly Tribulation. 72 73
• Exposed the Dragon God's attempt to enter the Genesis Realm, the formation and shattering of the Creation Godhood, and the Dragon God's death at the hands of the Divine Realm's gods. 85 86 87
• Its revelation of Gu Yuena's origins stirred the dormant remnants of the Ice Dragon King and Fire Dragon King within the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. 84 85
• Revealed that the Divine Realm's laws had sealed the soul beasts' path to godhood, explaining why future Di Tian remained unable to ascend despite his accumulated strength and Yin-Yang Complementary Soul Core. 72
• Its projection of Universe Tracing provided Gu Yuena with a new direction for cultivation. After watching, she reproduced a preliminary enhancement that accelerated her subordinates' Soul Power circulation and stimulated their bloodlines, though she could not match the projected demonstration. 92
• Connected Qian Daochen to old legends involving the Far North, Sun Moon Continent, Slaughter City, the two great empires, and the preservation of numerous sects. 159

Heavenly Dao Rewards

After completing a review, the Screen distributes rewards directly to the ranked individual. The rewards vary by recipient and can include cultivation, soul rings, divine artifacts, bloodline evolution, god-level skills, immortal herbs, and Godhoods. 8 15 21 25 38 50 63 74 92

Di Tian's Special Godhood granted him God Rank strength within Douluo Continent while preserving his ability to pursue or inherit another Godhood in the future. However, the Special Godhood becomes ineffective outside the continent. 74

Qian Daoliu's rewards enabled him to fuse the Wing God Sword and 700,000-Year Spirit Ring with his Seraphim Martial Soul, evolving it into the Divine Archangel Martial Soul. 63

• Heavenly Dao Marrow-Cleansing Pill: Contains a trace of Heavenly Dao Power, elevates life essence, and remedies bloodline defects. A soul master who consumes it may undergo Martial Soul evolution. 9
• Ancestral Dragon Blood: Described as originating from the source of the Dragon Clan across the heavens and myriad worlds, with the potential to complete Gu Yuena's Dragon God origin and further evolve her bloodline. Gu Yuena subsequently completed its absorption. 92 109
• Martial Soul advancement to supreme: Allows the recipient's Martial Soul to undergo its final transformation, breaking beyond God Rank into the supreme level. 160
• Super God Rank Soul Bone: Comprehensively enhances physique, Soul Power, spirit, and comprehension of laws after fusion. 160
• World Tree Sapling: Contains a complete world's essence and can form an independent world. Given sufficient resources and time, it can develop into a complete world no less than Douluo Continent. Qian Daochen explains that it possesses its own world origin and gradually perfects its laws by absorbing power. 160 161

Qian Daochen's three rewards were announced before the transition to the Treasure Ranking, but had not yet truly descended at the time of that announcement. 161

Treasure Ranking

After concluding the Supreme Ranking, the Heavenly Screen announced a new ranking devoted to Douluo Continent's ten greatest treasures. Its opening was scheduled for three days after the announcement, and qualifying entries would receive Heavenly Dao rewards. 161 162

• Expands the Screen's rankings beyond individual combat strength to treasures. 161
• Prompted both great empires to reconsider their collections as a means of obtaining rewards despite their failure to place on the Supreme Ranking. 161
• Led the Star Luo Emperor to order an inventory of imperial treasures connected to gods or ancient legacies. 161
• Its precise eligibility rules remained unclear at announcement. Tang Xiao considered whether the Clear Sky Hammer could qualify, but neither he nor the other factions knew whether Martial Souls could be included. 161

Public Communication

The Screen serves as a continent-wide forum in addition to a ranking system.

• Displays real-time comments from identified observers, allowing factions and individuals to debate each reveal publicly. 1 2
• Its displays provoke political and military responses, including discussions of alliances against Spirit Hall and investigations into Sun Moon Continent. 6 12
• Its reward announcements are visible to all observers, making the resulting shifts in power impossible to conceal. 8 15 21
• Its disclosures have directly affected continental policy, including the Heaven Dou and Star Luo Empires' decision to restrict soul-beast hunts after Di Tian acquired God Rank strength. 74
• The Screen's future projections have compelled the rulers of Heaven Dou, Star Luo, and Sun Moon to reassess their territories and long-term relations. 72
• Its future map omitted Spirit Hall, prompting Bibi Dong to resolve to use Heavenly Dao rewards to overturn that future. 72
• Its displays of Qian Daochen's strength established a public reference for recognizing him and assessing the danger of opposing him. Xue Ye invoked the Screen's scenes when explaining Qian Daochen's identity to the Heaven Dou court. 101
• The new balance created by the rankings and rewards contributed to Heaven Dou's decision to seek Qian Daochen's protection rather than rely solely on its army and allied sects. 102
• Qian Daochen's review challenged assumptions that weak initial Martial Souls necessarily prevented supreme achievement, leading observers to reconsider fundamental training and the possibility of self-created God-Level Soul Skills. 153 158 159
• News of Qian Daochen's planned return to Spirit Hall circulated through Communication Soul Tools and appeared amid the Screen's comments, provoking discussion of a possible struggle between him and Bibi Dong. 163

Known Limitations

• The exact origin, consciousness, and governing criteria of the Heavenly Screen are not disclosed. Gu Yuena characterizes it as an embodiment of the Heavenly Dao and as an existence beyond the reach of God Kings, but its operational nature remains unexplained. 87
• It does not fully explain every ranking immediately; the Evil Emperor's objections to Snow Emperor's higher placement were answered through subsequent disclosures of Snow Emperor's origin and abilities. 18 20
• Although it can reveal ancient history and possible future events, it can withhold decisive outcomes. Di Tian's future Million-Year Heavenly Tribulation was shown only until the final strike, without revealing whether he survived. 72 73
• Its rewards can possess individual conditions or territorial restrictions; Di Tian's Special Godhood functions only within Douluo Continent. 74
• The Screen's reviews can reveal highly personal information, but the complete extent of its knowledge remains unknown. Bibi Dong specifically questioned how much it could uncover after it exposed her divine inheritance; later reviews demonstrated knowledge of ancient eras, prior lives, and future events. 8 69 72
• Its historical reviews are selective. It cut away before showing Qian Daochen's answer to Bo Saixi's confession, provoking complaints from viewers who wanted the scene completed. 36
• Whether individuals within its historical projections can perceive its observation is unresolved. During Qian Daoliu's review, the past Qian Daochen remarked that the Heavenly Screen was watching despite its not yet having descended; the final scene of Qian Daochen's own review likewise showed him looking outward through the image. Neither incident received an explanation from the Screen. 56 159
• The Treasure Ranking's exact criteria, including whether inherited Martial Souls count as treasures, were not explained in its initial announcement. 161
