[Bai Qi's achievements were countless. Here were just a few of his greatest.]
[In the Battle of Yique, the Southern Han Empire and Wei-Shu Empire sent a combined force of 240,000 elite troops against the Sun Moon Kingdom.]
[When Xu Que, ruler of the Sun Moon Kingdom, learned of this, he immediately sent Bai Qi to marshal troops and meet the attack.]
[Bai Qi not only annihilated all 240,000 invaders but also seized five cities from the Southern Han Empire and Wei-Shu Empire!]
[In the Chu Conquest War, Bai Qi led his troops against the Northern Chu Empire. Across three campaigns, he wiped out 100,000 enemies in one battle and 350,000 in another. He forced the empire to move its capital, then finally to open its gates and surrender.]
[Thus, a vast empire fell at Bai Qi's hands. For destroying it, Xu Que granted him the title Lord Wu'an.]
[Later, in the Battle of Huayang and the Battle of Xingcheng, Bai Qi killed another 150,000 and 50,000 enemies respectively and captured more than a dozen enemy cities. He greatly expanded the Sun Moon Kingdom's territory and laid the groundwork for the founding of the Sun Moon Empire.]
[But the fiercest battle of Bai Qi's life was undoubtedly the Battle of Changping against the Winter Zhao Empire!]
[In that battle, both sides committed every elite soldier they had.]
[In that battle, Bai Qi won a crushing victory!]
[He captured 400,000 surrendering enemies.]
[The defeated Winter Zhao Empire suffered devastating losses.]
[Bai Qi knew he could never release those 400,000 prisoners.]
[If he let them go?]
[That would be letting a tiger return to the mountains!]
[Within a few years, those soldiers would help the battered Winter Zhao Empire rebuild its strength. That would spell disaster for the Sun Moon Kingdom.]
[And so Bai Qi made a decision.]
[What decision?]
[Bury every surrendering enemy alive!]
[Spare not a single one!]
[That would eliminate the Winter Zhao Empire as a threat once and for all!]
[In the end, all 400,000 surrendered Winter Zhao soldiers died in Bai Qi's mass burial. Bai Qi broke through to become a Ninety-Ninth-Level Peerless Douluo, just one step from becoming a supreme god.]
[Now Bai Qi needed only to kill another million living beings to become a supreme god!]
[Over more than a decade of warfare, Bai Qi had never lost a single one of his seventy-plus battles. He had captured over seventy cities and annihilated more than 1.5 million enemy soldiers!]
[Because he had killed so many, Bai Qi gained a third honorific alongside Lord Wu'an and One Man, One Sect: God of Slaughter!]
[God of Slaughter was more than an honorific for Bai Qi.]
[It later became his Douluo title.]
[Slaughter Douluo.]
[And in the entire Sun Moon Empire, Bai Qi was the only commander who surpassed Chen Qingzhi in leading armies into battle.]
[This concludes the introduction of Bai Qi, Lord Wu'an of the Sun Moon Empire and third on the Sun-Moon Continent Prodigy Ranking.]
[The corresponding rewards are now being issued.]
[The Hegemon of Chu, Xiang Yu, will receive his reward at the same time.]
[Reward for the Hegemon of Chu, Xiang Yu: The inheritance of a First-Level God!]
[Reward description: As the name suggests, the Hegemon of Chu, Xiang Yu, has received the inheritance of a First-Level God. There are three inheritances, and he may choose one for himself.]
[Reward for Lord Wu'an, Bai Qi: The inheritance of a First-Level God!]
[Reward description: As the name suggests, Lord Wu'an, Bai Qi, has also received the inheritance of a First-Level God. He, too, has three inheritances to choose from and may select one for himself.]
As the commanding voice faded, two dazzling red meteors shot from the Golden Light Curtain in the sky. One flew toward Sea God Island, soon to be renamed Sun-Moon Island; the other flew toward the Sun Moon Empire on the Sun Moon Continent. Their targets were Xiang Yu, the Hegemon of Chu, and Bai Qi, Lord Wu'an—both ranked third on the Sun-Moon Continent Prodigy Ranking.

"Buried 400,000 surrendered soldiers alive?"
"That Bai Qi is ruthless!"
After reading the Golden Light Curtain and learning about Bai Qi, the Sun Moon Empire's Lord Wu'an who possessed two Divine Martial Souls, Ma Hongjun couldn't help voicing his opinion.
Sea God Island, soon to be renamed Sun-Moon Island.
The red meteor soon reached Sea God Island.
It flew straight to the Hegemon of Chu, Xiang Yu, and entered his body.
As soon as it did, something only he could see appeared before his eyes.
[First-Level God: River God!]
[River God description: The River God governs all the rivers in the world. His power is roughly equal to that of the First-Level Water God and Sea God.]
The moment he saw the River God, Xiang Yu made up his mind.
He would not look at the other two divine inheritances. He wanted the River God's Godhood.
No—to be precise, he wanted to give the River God's Godhood to someone else.
That person?
A perfect match for the River God's Godhood!
That person?
Like Xiang Yu, he served Xu Que, ruler of the Sun Moon Kingdom.
That person?
He was not on the Sun-Moon Continent Prodigy Ranking, and he was close to Xiang Yu.
As one red meteor entered Xiang Yu's body, the other entered Bai Qi's.
Unlike Xiang Yu, who had made his choice without hesitation, Bai Qi struggled to choose among the three inheritances of First-Level Gods.
[First-Level God: War God!]
[War God description: The War God is a First-Level God who delights in war and excels at creating it. He can sway people's hearts and easily provoke conflict between nations.]
[First-Level God: Heavenly Poison God!]
[Heavenly Poison God description: The Heavenly Poison God is a First-Level God renowned for his mastery of poison. He is the strongest poison god in the Divine Realm, bar none! Used well, his poison can inflict truly terrifying devastation.]

"Your Majesty, General Qin has returned. His mission to Sea God Island was a complete success, and he brought back several captives. He is waiting outside the hall."
Seated on the imperial throne, Xu Que received his subordinate's report.
After hearing it, Xu Que replied.
"Is that so? Summon General Qin, and bring the captives in as well."
Curiosity flickered across Xu Que's face as he spoke. He wanted to know who the captives from Sea God Island were.
As soon as Xu Que finished speaking, the commanding voice rang out.
Yes, the Sun-Moon Continent Prodigy Ranking had revealed the next Soul Master on the list.
[Second on the Sun-Moon Continent Prodigy Ranking: Li Yuanba, Prince Anguo of the Sun Moon Empire!]
