Spirit Hall was the Soul Master World's holy ground, and every power on the continent watched it closely.

Before a day had passed, spies had carried news of what happened there back to their masters.

The Clear Sky Sect, the greatest sect under heaven!

"Hahahaha! That birdman finally got what was coming to him. I'm dying of laughter!"

"Bibi Dong accused Lin Feng of molesting her. He lost his Soul Power and Soul Rings and got thrown out, while she somehow lost her Soul Power too. Spirit Hall's twin stars were both gone in a single day!"

"Heaven favors the Clear Sky Sect, not Spirit Hall! Even the heavens can't stand them anymore. It's our time to rise!"

Tang Chen laughed so hard he slapped his thigh. He and Qian Daoliu were known as the two towering figures of the Soul Master World, and their rivalry had never let up.

Spirit Hall had its twin stars: Lin Feng and Bibi Dong.

So the Clear Sky Sect had its own: Tang Xiao and Tang Hao.

But not all twin stars shone equally bright.

Lin Feng had reached level 52 Soul Power at twelve, while Bibi Dong had reached level 92 at seventeen. Tang Chen had been so envious he could have ground his teeth to dust.

The Clear Sky Sect's twin stars were talented too, but Tang Xiao had only just become a Soul Saint at thirty-five, and Tang Hao had only just become a Soul King at twenty.

It meant Spirit Hall had worthy successors. Once Tang Chen and Qian Daoliu grew old, the future would belong to Spirit Hall.

The Clear Sky Sect had seemed destined to live under Spirit Hall's thumb.

Not anymore!

Spirit Hall had ruined two of its own geniuses!

Qian Xunji had personally stripped one of his Soul Power and Soul Rings. The other had somehow lost all her Soul Power under Qian Xunji's watch.

Was Qian Xunji really Qian Daoliu's son? Had some other power planted him in Spirit Hall as a spy?

Once Tang Chen had finished laughing at Qian Daoliu, he looked toward his juniors, especially his son Tang Zhen, the current sect master of the Clear Sky Sect.

"Remember what happened at Spirit Hall and learn from it. Outsider Soul Masters can't be trusted, especially women. Only your own blood—your brothers, sons, and nephews—can truly be relied on."

"The Clear Sky Sect's resources go to our own people. If any of you take a disciple from outside, especially a female disciple, don't blame me when I cripple you myself."

Led by Tang Zhen, the Clear Sky Sect members bowed respectfully.

"As the First Elder commands!"

When on duty, they addressed him by his position. Tang Chen was now the Clear Sky Sect's First Elder.

Tang Chen likely never imagined that a female Soul Master would one day play a part in driving the Clear Sky Sect into seclusion.

No, a female Soul Beast.

Tang Hao would fall in love with a hundred-thousand-year Soul Beast in human form. The entire continent would turn against them, and the Clear Sky Sect would come under attack from all sides, leaving it no choice but to retreat into seclusion.

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, the second-greatest sect under heaven!

Ning Fengzhi was not yet in charge of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. His father, Ning Tiande, still led it.

Ning Tiande's skin had grown loose, and shock spread across his aged, deeply wrinkled face.

"A fiancée accusing her fiancé of molestation? Nothing like it has ever been seen or heard of on the Douluo Continent."

"Bibi Dong's malice has sunk to a new low. If she takes charge of Spirit Hall one day, the thought alone is chilling."

"And Qian Xunji actually believed such nonsense. He even crippled Spirit Hall's genius over it. That family ought to have an expert come take a look at their house."

"Doesn't the Qian Family worship the Angel God? Why doesn't she come down and see for herself? Something evil has gotten into that house."

Ning Tiande's son Ning Fengzhi, already the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's deputy sect master, said gently:

"Sect Master, this is good news for us!"

"Lin Feng and Bibi Dong once shone like the sun and moon. Two geniuses like them could have dominated an era. Without them, Spirit Hall can no longer keep the Seven Great Sects in check."

"There's something else. Should we send people to find Lin Feng, now that Spirit Hall has cast him out?"

"He's only twelve. If we can heal him, his extraordinary talent could still make him a great power someday—and a pillar of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect."

Ning Tiande nodded repeatedly and looked at Ning Fengzhi with approval.

"Fengzhi, you're right. You're already thinking like a sect master. It seems I can entrust the position to you.

"Do as you suggested. Send people to find Lin Feng at once."

"With the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's wealth, we can search the entire continent for treasures that can heal him. The potential he's shown makes him worth the investment."

Ning Fengzhi's expression turned solemn, and he saluted with clasped hands.

"Sect Master, I'll make the arrangements now."

The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, the third-greatest sect under heaven!

Yu Yuanzhen's brow was tightly furrowed. He had a bad feeling about this. His disappointing younger son, Yu Xiaogang, had been the spark that set off Bibi Dong's accusation against Lin Feng.

The fallout had already gone beyond Spirit Hall's control. Both its twin stars were ruined. If Qian Daoliu took his anger out on the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, Yu Yuanzhen could not withstand his fury.

"What a curse. Xiaogang, I should never have agreed to let you go to Spirit Hall. Now, because of you, both of their twin stars are ruined."

"It's wonderful news for the other sects, but terrible news for the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan."

Yu Yuanzhen rose and paced the hall. After turning it over in his mind, he calmed down.

"It's already happened. Getting worked up won't help. Even if Xiaogang was at fault, wasn't Bibi Dong at fault too?"

"My younger son is a good-for-nothing. If a Heaven's Chosen like Bibi Dong fell for him, she had only herself to blame."

"If Bibi Dong hadn't agreed, could my son, a mere level 29 Soul Grandmaster, have forced her to accuse Lin Feng?"

"That's right. Qian Daoliu has to be reasonable. If he takes his anger out on the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, I'll argue it through with him. Why blame Xiaogang for Bibi Dong's poor judgment?"

Yu Yuanzhen finally relaxed.

Then he broke into a grin. "One scheme brought down two geniuses. Xiaogang, you've outdone yourself. Losing them should knock Spirit Hall down a peg."

Besides the three great sects, there were two great empires.

In the Heaven Dou Empire, Xue Ye had only just taken the throne. He was ambitious and eager to make his mark.

When he heard Spirit Hall had lost two geniuses, he was so delighted he ate two extra bowls of rice. That night, as he visited a consort, he patted her plump backside and asked whether that counted as molestation.

In the Star Luo Empire, Dai Senmo had also only just taken the throne. He laughed at Qian Daoliu for growing senile and at Qian Xunji for failing to recognize talent.

This time, Spirit Hall had made a laughingstock of itself across the entire continent.
