Qian Xunji: I Will Raise Four Gods

Spirit Hall, Worship Hall.

This hall was older and more majestic than Pope Hall, its entire structure built from white jade.

Within stood a Six-Winged Angel statue thirty meters tall, gleaming with golden radiance as it looked down upon all living beings.

Qian Xunji stepped through the doors, unconsciously softening his footsteps.

Even as the Pope, he did not dare act recklessly within this hall.

Deep inside the hall, a golden-haired man stood beneath the Angel God statue with his hands behind his back.

He looked no more than thirty or forty, handsome in appearance and steady in bearing, his long golden hair spilling over his shoulders.

A Six-Winged Angel pattern was embroidered upon his white robe with golden trim. His aura was restrained, yet it carried an unfathomable pressure.

Spirit Hall's First Offering.

Qian Daoliu.

A rank ninety-nine Peerless Douluo.

Invincible in the skies.

Three others sat to Qian Daoliu's left and right.

Their auras were equally unfathomable. Each was an expert standing at the pinnacle of the continent.

Second Worship Golden Crocodile Douluo, Third Offering Azure Luan Douluo, and Fourth Offering Mighty Lion Douluo.

At this moment, only these four were present in Worship Hall.

Qian Xunji hurried forward and bowed. "Father, uncles."

Qian Daoliu did not turn around. His voice was calm. "What is it?"

Qian Xunji straightened, barely able to suppress the excitement in his voice. "Spirit Hall Orphanage awakened martial souls today. Your son discovered an unparalleled genius and has already accepted him as a disciple."

The hall fell silent for a moment.

Several gazes landed on Qian Xunji at once.

Spirit Hall had existed for ages and wielded immense influence. They had seen plenty of geniuses.

Yet those whom the Pope personally called "unparalleled geniuses" were few enough to count on one's fingers.

Not to mention that Qian Xunji already had three monstrous talents in his grasp.

Golden Crocodile Douluo opened his eyes and looked Qian Xunji over.

"Xunji, you only recently accepted that girl Bibi Dong. Innate Full Soul Power, Twin Martial Souls."

"Your daughter Xue'er has a God-Level Martial Soul with innate rank twenty Soul Power."

"Your third disciple, Ye Guyi, also has Innate Full Soul Power—a Sacred Angel mutated from a two-winged angel."

"And now there is another one?"

"Isn't your luck a little too good?"

Azure Luan Douluo chuckled. "This kid has good fortune. Every disciple he takes is more monstrous than the last."

"What, is this fourth one another mutant martial soul with Innate Full Soul Power? Or another set of Twin Martial Souls?"

Qian Xunji grinned and enunciated every word. "Innate rank twenty. God-Level Martial Soul."

Mighty Lion Douluo and Azure Luan Douluo stared at Qian Xunji in disbelief.

Two sharp lights shot from Golden Crocodile Douluo's eyes. "What did you say?!"

Even Qian Daoliu's back stiffened abruptly as he slowly turned around.

Surprise appeared on his face.

"A God-Level Martial Soul?"

"Yes." Qian Xunji met his father's gaze and said each word distinctly. "Innate rank twenty Soul Power. An ordinary crystal ball exploded outright. It was only measured using a specially made crystal ball."

Golden Crocodile Douluo and Azure Luan Douluo exchanged a glance.

Shock and wild delight flickered in both their eyes.

Another inheritor of a God-Level Martial Soul—what did that mean?

It meant Spirit Hall would possess the inheritance of a second God-Level Martial Soul!

Mighty Lion Douluo hurriedly asked, "What is his martial soul?"

"The Asura Demon Sword."

Qian Daoliu frowned slightly. "The Asura Demon Sword? I have never heard of it."

"Father, you do not know this, but when that child awakened..."

Qian Xunji recounted the phenomena that had occurred when Luo Jiuyou awakened his martial soul.

Bloody light had soared into the heavens, murderous intent had flooded the air, and baleful energy had surged like a tide, making the entire plaza tremble.

The souls of everyone present had trembled. Even his Six-Winged Angel martial soul had quivered faintly.

After hearing this, everyone in the hall turned grave.

Golden Crocodile Douluo furrowed his brow. "Such phenomena appeared at the very moment of awakening. It truly lives up to the name of a God-Level Martial Soul. This child's martial soul has far too much killing intent."

Azure Luan Douluo nodded. "It is more tyrannical and vicious than our Six-Winged Angel. I wonder which deity's handiwork this is."

Mighty Lion Douluo said in a deep voice, "No matter whose handiwork it is, as long as it is a God-Level Martial Soul, it is a blessing for Spirit Hall!"

"Haha, two God-Level Martial Souls emerging in the same generation! In all my years, I never imagined I would see this!"

Golden Crocodile Douluo's eyes gleamed. "Xunji, what is that child's name?"

"Luo Jiuyou."

"Luo Jiuyou..." Golden Crocodile Douluo savored the name, slowly sat down, and revealed an excitement he could not conceal.

"Good, good! Eldest Brother, did you hear that? Another inheritor of a God-Level Martial Soul!"

"With Xue'er included, Spirit Hall has two God-Level Martial Souls in one generation. Why should we fear that our future will not flourish?"

Azure Luan Douluo could not hide his excitement either, nodding again and again. "Twin Martial Souls, a Mutated Sacred Angel, two God-Level Martial Souls—Xunji, your eye for talent is truly beyond reproach. I am impressed."

Mighty Lion Douluo laughed heartily. "Eldest Brother, your son is practically a cradle for geniuses! He has taken in four disciples, and every one of them is a monster among monsters!"

Qian Xunji chuckled, his back straightening a little further.

Qian Daoliu did not smile.

His gaze was profound. After pondering for a moment, he slowly spoke. "That child's martial soul possesses overly intense killing intent. Without proper guidance, he could easily stray down the wrong path."

He looked at Qian Xunji. "Where is he?"

"I have arranged for him to stay in the eastern courtyard with Dong'er, Xue'er, and Guyi," Qian Xunji quickly replied.

Qian Daoliu nodded. After a moment of silence, he suddenly asked, "Ji'er, can you handle all four disciples yourself?"

Qian Xunji froze.

"Bibi Dong has Twin Martial Souls. Someone needs to keep watch over her cultivation path."

"As for Xue'er, if I had not advised her several times, who knows what you would have taught her into becoming."

Qian Daoliu's tone was calm, but unquestionable. "Now there is another disciple with a God-Level Martial Soul, and it is such a vicious martial soul at that. Tell me yourself—can you teach them all?"

Qian Xunji opened his mouth, but did not dare respond.

Qian Daoliu turned toward the Angel God statue, standing with his hands behind his back.

"From today onward, I will personally teach these children."

Qian Xunji was stunned.

"Father, haven't you lived in seclusion for many years, no longer concerning yourself with worldly affairs?"

"Their upbringing concerns Spirit Hall's future. How could I possibly let you handle it carelessly?"

Qian Xunji shrank his neck.

Qian Daoliu's voice grew heavier. "Especially that child named Jiuyou. The Asura Demon Sword's killing intent reaches the heavens."

"If a child like that is not properly guided from a young age, the slightest misstep could spell disaster for Spirit Hall. How could I stand by and do nothing?"

Golden Crocodile Douluo nodded in agreement. "Eldest Brother is right. An inheritor of a God-Level Martial Soul appears once in a million. Only the strongest should personally teach such a child, so that he does not take the wrong path."

"Xunji, your talent may be decent, but you still lack the experience to teach disciples with God-Level Martial Souls."

Azure Luan Douluo and Mighty Lion Douluo nodded as well.

Qian Xunji chuckled, inwardly delighted.

His father would teach them personally, yet would not take away his title as their master.

As their master, he only needed to keep the name.

Once these four children became gods, no one could take away the credit due to him as their "first teacher."

He could still openly declare, "I raised four gods!"

Qian Xunji hurriedly bowed. "Then I thank you, Father."

Qian Daoliu waved a hand and said nothing further.

He raised his head toward the enormous Six-Winged Angel statue, his gaze tranquil and far-reaching.

Golden Crocodile Douluo, Azure Luan Douluo, and Mighty Lion Douluo exchanged looks. In each other's eyes, they saw the same excitement, anticipation, and ecstasy.

Four children.

Twin Martial Souls, a Mutated Sacred Angel, and two God-Level Martial Souls.

Every one of them was an unparalleled monster.

Spirit Hall's future was truly boundless.
