After Qian Renxue finished speaking, an imposing voice rang out, echoing across every corner of Douluo Continent and Sun Moon Continent.
[Fourth Place on the Sun-Moon Continent Prodigy Ranking: Qin Qiong, Valiant General of the Sun Moon Empire!]
The imposing voice from the Golden Light Curtain in the sky was heard by both Qian Renxue and Qian Daoliu, whose Martial Souls were both Six-Winged Angels.
Yet neither of them paid it any heed at that moment.
After hearing Qian Renxue's declaration and seeing the unshakable determination in her eyes, Qian Daoliu asked, "Are you sure you want to know?"
Hearing her grandfather Qian Daoliu's words and facing his question, Qian Renxue put on a solemn, earnest expression before replying to him, each word firm and resonant, "I'm sure!"
Upon receiving Qian Renxue's answer, Qian Daoliu nodded thoughtfully.
After falling silent for a while, Qian Daoliu spoke in a helpless tone.
"Since you truly want to know, and I can't stop you from asking your mother, Bibi Dong, then I'll tell you."
As he spoke, Qian Daoliu recalled the events of that year while telling Qian Renxue everything she wanted to know.
"The reason your mother, Bibi Dong, killed your father, Qian Xunji, was all because of hatred!"
"Because of that hatred, your mother Bibi Dong not only killed your father Qian Xunji, but also completely Devoured his flesh, body, spirit, soul, and Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul, leaving nothing behind."
"As for why your mother Bibi Dong hated your father Qian Xunji?"
"It began with something that happened back then."
"That incident went like this..."
As Qian Daoliu began recounting the matter to Qian Renxue, the Golden Ranking also began introducing Qin Qiong, the Valiant General and seventh person to make it onto the Sun-Moon Continent Prodigy Ranking.
[Qin Qiong, male, a native of the Sun Moon Empire on Sun Moon Continent.] [Qin Qiong was a general of the Sun Moon Empire.] [He bore the title Valiant General.] [He was called the Valiant General because he was exceptionally brave and fierce.] [The Sun Moon Empire generals who had previously appeared on the Sun-Moon Continent Prodigy Ranking, such as Zhao Yun, Yue Yun, Yang Zaixing, and Xue Li, were already formidable enough, but they still fell somewhat short compared to Qin Qiong. Before introducing Qin Qiong's bravery, however, let us first discuss his Martial Souls.] [Like Lü Bu, who ranked fifth on the Sun-Moon Continent Prodigy Ranking, Qin Qiong was one of the rare possessors of Twin Martial Souls. Unlike Lü Bu, whose Martial Souls consisted of one Tool Martial Soul and one Beast Martial Soul, both of Qin Qiong's Martial Souls were Tool Martial Souls.] [Qin Qiong's first Martial Soul?] [It was a pair of maces!] [They were named the Giant Spirit City-Breaking Mace.] [They were a Divine Tool Martial Soul focused on offense.] [Yes, you heard correctly. Not a top-tier Tool Martial Soul, but a Divine Tool Martial Soul found only once in tens of millions!] [After awakening the Divine Tool Martial Soul, the Giant Spirit City-Breaking Mace, Qin Qiong immediately tested his Innate Soul Power Level.] [Qin Qiong's Innate Soul Power Level was the same as Qian Renxue's, who ranked first on the Douluo Continent Prodigy Ranking. It had reached an astonishing Level 20, something countless soul masters could scarcely imagine!] [With Innate Level 20 Soul Power, Qin Qiong had already become a Level 90 Titled Douluo at the mere age of eighteen.] [Qin Qiong's soul master title was the same as his military title: Valiant.] [It meant bravery as great as a god's!] [Besides granting Qin Qiong Innate Level 20 Soul Power, the Divine Tool Martial Soul Giant Spirit City-Breaking Mace also granted him the passive skill Giant Spirit Divine Strength and the active skill Giant Spirit Descends to the Mortal Realm.] [The passive skill Giant Spirit Divine Strength gave Qin Qiong terrifying power. When he was a one-ring soul master, he possessed ten thousand kilograms of strength. When he was a Two-Ring Soul Grandmaster, he possessed twenty thousand kilograms. Following this pattern, now that Qin Qiong was a Nine-Ring Titled Douluo, he possessed ninety thousand kilograms of immense strength!] [Would the powerful Titan Giant Ape, a soul beast with a cultivation of one hundred thousand years and famed for its strength, stand a chance against Qin Qiong?] [It would only be beaten.] [It would not even be able to fight back.] [Its strength simply could not be mentioned in the same breath as Qin Qiong's!] [The active skill Giant Spirit Descends to the Mortal Realm was both powerful and special.] [Its power lay in the fact that, after it was used, it could summon the First-Level God Giant Spirit God to act once. Giant Spirit God was not a god of Douluo Continent, but a god from another God Realm. Although he was merely a First-Level God, his strength was no weaker than a God King's and could be compared to one!] [Its special nature lay in the fact that the skill could only be used once. After that one use, it could never be used again.]

"I truly never expected the fourth-ranked person on the Sun-Moon Continent Prodigy Ranking to already possess a Divine Martial Soul. The first-ranked person on our Douluo Continent Prodigy Ranking is only a Divine Martial Soul possessor. Isn't the gap between these two continents simply too great?"
"Moreover, Qin Qiong was not merely a Divine Martial Soul possessor—he was also a possessor of Twin Martial Souls! If he were placed on our Douluo Continent Prodigy Ranking, he would undoubtedly take first place! Qian Renxue, whose Martial Soul was the Divine Martial Soul Six-Winged Angel, simply could not compare to him."
Gazing at the Golden Light Curtain in the sky, Shui Yue'er softly murmured those words. Once she was done, she swallowed hard in shock.
After swallowing, Shui Yue'er parted her lips once more and added softly.
"I'm already starting to dread just how terrifying the first-ranked person on the Sun-Moon Continent Prodigy Ranking must be."
After Shui Yue'er finished speaking, Shui Bing'er responded with a wary expression.
"Summoning the First-Level God Giant Spirit God to act once?"
"Giant Spirit Descends to the Mortal Realm is truly an incredible skill!"
"It can deal a dimensionality-reducing strike against every living being in the world."
"With the skill Giant Spirit Descends to the Mortal Realm at his disposal, I imagine no one in the world today would be willing to provoke Qin Qiong."
Once Shui Bing'er finished speaking, envy appeared alongside the wariness on her face.
A skill that could have a First-Level God lend a hand was something any normal person would want, and Shui Bing'er, who ranked eighth on the Douluo Continent Prodigy Ranking, was no exception.
The Golden Ranking's introduction of Qin Qiong, Valiant General of the Sun Moon Empire on Sun Moon Continent, continued. It was far from over.
[Having discussed Qin Qiong's first Martial Soul, let us now discuss his second Martial Soul.] [Qin Qiong's second Martial Soul, like the Martial Souls of Zhao Yun and Yang Zaixing, was a spear-type Martial Soul focused on offense.] [Zhao Yun's spear-type Martial Soul was the Dragon Gallbladder Bright Silver Spear.] [Yang Zaixing's spear-type Martial Soul was the Flood Dragon-Head Rolling Silver Spear.] [Qin Qiong's spear-type Martial Soul, meanwhile, was the Tiger-Head Gilded Spear!] [The Tiger-Head Gilded Spear was a top-tier Tool Martial Soul. Though it was not a Divine Martial Soul, it stood at the peak among Martial Souls of the same grade.] [The reason the Tiger-Head Gilded Spear stood out among top-tier Tool Martial Souls was because it possessed a trait that other top-tier Tool Martial Souls did not.] [What trait?] [The answer to that question was simple.] [Elemental power!] [And not ordinary elemental power.] [It was elemental power that had entered the extreme realm!]
