Douluo Continent, Spirit City!

Pedestrians on the street walked in groups of threes and fives, their faces brimming with happiness or nervous anticipation as they walked out of the city gates.

Those leaving the city were not ordinary people, but rather the supreme soul masters of Douluo Continent.

They were heading out for no other reason than to acquire soul rings for their own martial souls.

However, due to their own strength limitations, they worried whether the age of the soul ring they obtained would be enough.

If it was too high, they would be blown apart from the excess energy; if it was too low, they would look down upon it.

Sigh, I really envy them for being able to work hard all this time just to become stronger. Unlike me, who can only rely on cheating. Still, cheating feels amazing.

A handsome black-haired man looked at their receding backs and sighed.

This damn system made me work so many odd jobs during my reincarnation cycles. It's practically going to kill me. No, now that the missions are all done, the system hasn't made a single peep since. It should be time for me to rest and enjoy myself.

Qin Feng pressed his lower back and thought. Even though he didn't know what was going on with the system right now, it was an extremely good choice for him.

Besides, in those reincarnated worlds, he didn't even know how many missions he had done. Things like feeding a dragon with his own body or feeding a soul beast with his own body were mere trifles.

There were other things, like fighting a hundred-thousand-year soul beast with a mortal body. Was that something an ordinary person could do?

It even made him search for a method to still acquire soul rings without killing soul beasts.

Fortunately, the good things the system gave him were enough to comfort Qin Feng's heart.

Forget it, I won't dwell on these things. Saying too much just brings tears. Anyway, I can finally rest in peace now.

I'll head to Spirit City first and find a decent hotel to rest in.

Qin Feng touched the gemstone ring on his right index finger, then walked toward a hotel with practiced familiarity.

Rose Hotel was a hotel dedicated to couples, a wildly popular establishment across Douluo Continent.

Many young people loved coming here. Aside from the fantastic environment, this place was also great for helping people sleep.

"Big Brother, Xie Yue, let's hurry up and hunt that soul ring. This is Big Brother's fourth soul ring, we can't be sloppy about it. Big Brother, how many years worth of a soul ring are you planning to get?"

"I don't know, let's leave it to fate!"

"Nana, Xie Yue will definitely get the soul ring he has in mind."

"Yan, I've told you before, call me by my full name."

"Fine, I got it."

The familiar trio passed by Qin Feng. Xie Yue walked a few steps before coming to a halt.

"Big Brother, what's wrong?"

Hu Liena looked at Xie Yue curiously, wondering why he had suddenly stopped.

"I sensed a different aura, it feels very familiar."

Xie Yue turned around to look at the back of Qin Feng, who was walking into Rose Hotel. For some reason, even though he had never seen this person before, he felt as though he must have seen him somewhere before.

"Ah? An aura that's both familiar and unfamiliar?"

Hu Liena and Yan looked at Xie Yue in puzzlement. Why did his words sound a bit strange? What did it mean to be both familiar and unfamiliar?

"Yeah, that's just the feeling. Maybe I sensed wrong, though."

Xie Yue shook his head and chuckled, figuring he was just overthinking things from cultivating too much inside Spirit Hall, resulting in hallucinations.

"Oh, oh. Who was that person just now? He didn't have a shred of soul power aura, just a complete ordinary person. Let's go hunt soul rings first, Big Brother's soul ring is what matters."

Hu Liena smiled and reminded him.

"That's right, let's go!"

The three of them hurried toward the city gates without stopping, where a group of people was already waiting for them outside.

These were Spirit Hall's men, and their purpose was to help quickly acquire the soul ring.

Did they figure it out? No way, this is my first time meeting them here.

Qin Feng guessed inwardly. He was extremely familiar with the three of them—no, to be precise, he was extremely familiar with Hu Liena, even more so than the other two.

Because during one of his reincarnation missions, Hu Liena had been his wife.

Due to Hu Liena's connection, Xie Yue and Yan had also received massive boosts, nothing like how they were in the original story.

However, as things stood now, this wasn't the parallel world where he had done his missions, and it had nothing to do with him.

After thinking for a long time and realizing they weren't reacting the way he had imagined, Qin Feng let out a sigh of relief, then slammed his hand down on the front desk.

"Get your boss out here."

"Ah?"

The receptionist let out an "ah," and upon seeing Qin Feng's resolute gaze, quickly hurried off to find her boss.

The next second, however, heaven and earth underwent a drastic transformation.

The sky suddenly grew dim, and people everywhere all raised their heads to look up at the heavens.

It had been bright and sunny just a moment ago; how had it turned pitch black in an instant?

Right at that moment, a flash of golden light streaked across the sky once more.

A massive Sky Screen appeared, and everyone who looked up could see the imagery displayed upon it.

In an instant, a virtual screen appeared before the eyes of every single person.

[The Sky Screen rankings will now begin. The subjects of these Sky Screen rankings are the experiences of other people in the world within parallel worlds.]

Dugu Bo the Poison Douluo: You can actually see your own spoken words here.

Yu Xiaogang: These aren't spoken words, the things we think in our minds are all being displayed.

Liu Erlong: Xiaogang? Is that you?

Yu Xiaogang:...

Shui Yue'er: It really is, hey! Big Sister, did you see it?

Shui Bing'er: I saw it. What a magical place.

Ma Hongjun: Boss Dai, did you see it?

Dai Mubai: I saw all of it.

Hu Liena: What is going on here? What are rankings?

Xie Yue: You're asking me? Then who am I supposed to ask?

Qin Feng walked out to the hotel entrance and looked up at the Sky Screen in the sky, the corner of his twitching. What was going on? Another system had arrived? And it was a system that just wanted to watch the world burn.

Still, what was this business about ranking parallel worlds?

Qin Feng somehow felt a little panicked; these Sky Screen rankings didn't seem to be doing human work.

"Alright, I don't need anything else. I want a room, money is not an issue."

Qin Feng said to the person behind him without looking back. This was the boss of Rose Hotel.

"Ah? Oh, guest, would you like to experience our hotel services? I guarantee you'll love it." The hotel boss glanced at the message on the screen, then asked Qin Feng.

"No need for that, I'll be fine by myself."

"Alright, the room is on the fourth floor, 408. Please, guest..."

Before the boss could finish speaking, the room card in his hand had already been taken away.

"Such a strange person. Whatever, let's see what these Sky Screen rankings are all about. Judging by this, it has to be good stuff, maybe there's even a way to improve one's own strength."

The boss didn't dwell on it. Douluo Continent was so vast, filled with all sorts of colorful people, and he was already used to it.

Qin Feng didn't want any services, and the boss was too lazy to bother anyway.

Boom!

The Sky Screen unfolded, beginning the new rankings and drawing the gaze of everyone.

The introduction was accompanied by the appearance of a portrait. This was a breathtakingly beautiful black-haired woman. She pressed her right hand downward, and two martial souls appeared behind her—one was a dazzling white Nine-Tailed Fox radiating pure light.

The other was a bell-shaped martial soul, the two martial souls complementing each other and setting off Qin Li's extraordinary nature.

Boom!

As soon as this introduction and portrait came out, everyone's brains felt as though they had exploded.

What did this mean? Were there really people like this in the world?

Those who knew some of the inside story looked at the achievements column in absolute shock.

What did it mean to independently create two God King godhoods at age twenty-six?

How could such a monstrously talented person possibly exist?
