Rewards: Peak Level 97, Divine-Demon Domain! Eighth Place: Male Lion Douluo?

Above the Ranking Screen, the previously frozen image gradually faded away.

In its place appeared an incomparably brilliant blue-black halo, from which the faint sounds of dragon roars and sword chimes could be heard.

That cold, majestic voice once again echoed across Douluo Continent:

[The ranking has concluded.

Ninth place, Sword Douluo Chen Xin.]

[As the future trajectory has been altered by the Ranking Screen, in order to compensate for the life-and-death insights he lost due to the changed trajectory, the following exclusive Ranking Screen rewards are hereby granted:]

[Reward One: Soul Power directly increases by 1 level, reaching Peak Level 97. His foundation will be perfectly integrated, with no hidden dangers.]

[Reward Two: The Seven Kill Domain evolves into the "Divine-Demon Domain." His sword intent reaches the divine level, his attack power permanently increases by 50%, and it comes with armor-piercing and execution effects.]

Boom!

As the voice fell, an enormous blue-black sword shadow descended straight from the Ranking Screen,

instantly piercing through the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's defensive barrier and merging into Chen Xin's body without the slightest obstruction.

Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, council hall.

Chen Xin's entire body was wrapped in a mysterious cocoon of sword intent, his robes snapping wildly amid the surging Soul Power.

The Seven Kill Domain had advanced into the Divine-Demon Domain.

It enveloped the entire council hall.

Though Chen Xin withdrew it at once,

Ning Fengzhi and Gu Rong still felt immense pressure, nearly unable to breathe for a moment.

"This power... Old Bones, Fengzhi, my Soul Power has truly broken through to Level 97!"

Chen Xin abruptly opened his eyes, disbelief still lingering on his face.

Gu Rong sucked in a breath and slapped his thigh as he laughed heartily.

"You old sword freak!

You got a free level of Soul Power without losing an arm, and even evolved your domain!

Once this 'Divine-Demon Domain' is unleashed, this old man's Bone Dragon will probably be sliced apart like tofu by you!"

Ning Fengzhi was equally delighted. He clasped his hands in sincere congratulations.

"Congratulations, Uncle Sword!

Level 97 Soul Power, sword intent reaching the divine level.

Combined with the evolved Divine-Demon Domain, looking across the entire continent, there are now only a handful of people who can defeat you!"

Feeling the ocean-like Soul Power surging within him and the terrifying sword intent that seemed capable of cleaving space itself, Chen Xin said in a deep voice:

"Fengzhi, now that the Ranking Screen has exposed Wuhun Hall's scheme,

not only has our sect been preserved, but this old man's strength has advanced further.

In this battle, we hold every advantage!"

Before the Papal Hall.

Watching the reward descend from the Ranking Screen, Bibi Dong trembled with rage and smashed the armrest of the papal throne before her into powder with one strike.

"Damn it!

Truly damn it!"

"Not only has it completely ruined my Soul Hunt Operation, it even let that old bastard Chen Xin turn misfortune into fortune and break through directly to Level 97!"

"Divine-Demon Domain... a 50% increase in attack power, with armor-piercing too?!"

Yue Guan and Gui Mei knelt on the ground, drenched in cold sweat. Yue Guan said tremblingly:

"Your Holiness, Chen Xin at Level 97 may already rival Chen Xun from back then.

If he works together with Ning Fengzhi's Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, we... even if we send four Title Douluo, we absolutely won't gain the slightest advantage."

With Chen Xin at Level 97, the Divine-Demon Domain unleashed, and Ning Fengzhi's support,

his true combat strength could already crush the other five great consecrators apart from Qian Daoliu and Golden Crocodile!

He might even rival Golden Crocodile, or perhaps surpass him!

Bibi Dong's gaze turned sinister as she growled through gritted teeth:

"I know that!

Pass down the order: all agents hidden within the two great empires are to enter complete silence!

Until we have absolute certainty, no one is to act rashly!"

Within the Consecration Hall.

Qian Daoliu gazed at the soaring sword intent surrounding Chen Xin. A trace of approval flashed through his eyes before turning into a long sigh.

"Divine-Demon Domain...

Chen Xun, though you have fallen, your son has already walked a sword path farther than yours.

The Seven Kill Lineage's fortune has truly not run dry."

Golden Crocodile Douluo asked with a grave expression:

"Great Consecrator, now that Chen Xin has reached Level 97, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's strength has greatly increased.

If they join forces with the two great empires against Wuhun Hall, the situation may become troublesome."

Qian Daoliu gave him an indifferent glance.

"What are you panicking for?

As long as I remain, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect cannot overturn the heavens.

But these Ranking Screen rewards are so heaven-defying. The ninth-ranked person alone received such a blessing...

What will those ranked above receive?"

Shrek Academy.

Tang San stared fixedly at the Ranking Screen, his hands trembling faintly with excitement.

"Teacher, it can directly raise a Super Douluo's Soul Power by one level and even evolve a domain...

What kind of god is the being behind this Ranking Screen?"

Yu Xiaogang drew in a cold breath, his eyes filled with fervor and awe.

"Xiao San, this has already surpassed the realm of gods we know.

This is true power of creation!

If the Ranking Screen continues its rankings,

then after it finishes ranking the 'Ten Peak Soul Masters,' if it goes on to rank something like the 'Ten Heavenly Geniuses among Soul Masters,' perhaps you could make the list..."

In Yu Xiaogang's eyes,

Tang San was the third person in a hundred years to possess twin Martial Souls.

If Douluo Continent's young Soul Master geniuses were ranked, Tang San would surely have a place on the list!

Tang San clenched his fists, a fiery gleam flashing through his eyes.

"This disciple understands.

If I can make the list, perhaps Father and Mother will no longer need to fear Wuhun Hall's threat!"

Although Tang Hao's past and choices had just been exposed, making him a target of public condemnation throughout Douluo Continent,

as a steadfast "feudalist warrior," Tang San still supported his parents without limits.

Sunset Forest.

Jia Lin excitedly tugged at Lan Yu's sleeve and chirped:

"Dad!

Look, the Ranking Screen really gave him a reward!

That old man has become so strong now. I feel like he could shave off even my dragon scales with one swing of his sword!"

Lan Yu laughed helplessly and lightly flicked Jia Lin's forehead with a finger.

"You little girl, you never train properly on ordinary days, and now you know fear?

Still, Chen Xin's 'Divine-Demon Domain' is indeed rather interesting. It lives up to the name of his Seven Kill Sword."

Rubbing her forehead, Jia Lin asked curiously:

"Dad, now that the ninth place has been ranked, it should be the eighth place's turn next, right?

Who do you think eighth place will be?

Could it be Tang Chen of the Clear Sky Sect, or Bo Saixi of Sea God Island?"

With his hands behind his back, Lan Yu looked up at the golden clouds gathering once more across the Ranking Screen and said leisurely:

"Tang Chen and Bo Saixi are both Level 99 Peerless Douluo. Their rankings will only be higher.

As for eighth place...

Douluo Continent is full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers. Watch—the Ranking Screen is about to give us the answer."

The moment his words fell, the golden clouds above the Ranking Screen exploded with a thunderous crash.

A dark-red radiance even more terrifying than before, carrying endless tyrannical and destructive aura, shot into the heavens!

Above the Ranking Screen, the dark-red light churned madly, finally condensing into the phantom of a Blazing Lion roaring toward the sky.

That cold, majestic voice once again spread throughout the continent:

[Peak Soul Master Ranking, eighth place!

Wuhun Hall's Fourth Consecrator, Male Lion Douluo!]
