Just Out of the Comparison Space, All Three Were Hunted Across the Map?

Bloody tears slowly spilled from Tang Wulin's eyes. The pain inside his body doubled with every passing moment. His parents' faces surfaced before his eyes, followed at last by the departing figure of Na'er, who had left years ago.

"It hurts. It hurts so much. Why? Why do I have to suffer like this?"

"This powerful bloodline gave me strength beyond that of a Soul Master, but with it came pain that never ends!!"

"If I could choose, if I could choose, I'd wish it had never appeared!!!"

Thump! Thump!! Thump!!!

The man who would one day stand above all others now lay curled on the ground like a weeping child, overcome by pain.

No, he was weeping. But there was no one beside him to offer comfort.

"Sigh."

With a soft sigh, Huo Yuhao stepped onto the arena. He raised a hand, and a mighty surge of spiritual power erupted.

"How dare you invade my son's Spiritual Sea!"

Buzz!

"If your Soul Body were here, I might take you seriously. But right now, you're nothing more than a feeble Soul Fragment."

Smack!

A powerful gray figure struck with one palm, suppressing the Soul Fragment and instantly silencing it.

"Who are you? Why do you carry my aura?"

A smile slowly curved Huo Yuhao's lips.

"I come from the future, from an age when you're still alive. How about we make a deal?"

In the end, Tang Wulin's body, on the verge of bursting from the terrifying power, stabilized. Huo Yuhao left behind the sight of his back, shrouded in gray light.

"Th-thank you for saving me."

Huo Yuhao waved a hand.

"I can't resolve your bloodline problem right now. I've only put it to sleep for a while. You still have a long road ahead, child."

[This comparison has ended. All bets, rewards, and penalties will now be settled!]

[In two and a half minutes, everyone will be teleported out of the Comparison Space!]

Buzz!!!

The instant the Heavenly Screen's notice appeared, the Golden Dragon King Bloodline copied into Huo Yuhao's body erupted.

Bang! Bang!! Bang!!!

[Level twelve!]

[Level thirteen!!]

[Level fourteen!!!]

His Soul Power stopped rising only when it reached the peak of level fourteen.

A dazzling green light burst from Tang Wulin's body. His Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul transformed in an instant, unleashing a terrifying surge of life force that healed his injuries at once.

"Impossible! Impossible! There's no way I could have lost!!!"

Despair filled Tang San's face.

"Heavenly Screen! I want to report him! I'm reporting Tang Wulin of the Third-Generation Golden Dragon Form for cheating!"

His teacher Gangzi was even more desperate. He had been a Soul Grandmaster with two yellow Hundred-Year Soul Rings. Now his Soul Power was gone, his Martial Soul was gone—everything was gone.

Deep in a valley where daylight never reached, a golden stalk of Blue Silver Grass sensed its bloodline vanish from this world and thrashed wildly.

Huo Yuhao had barely been teleported out of the Heavenly Screen's Comparison Space when the Golden Dragon Bloodline within him erupted in the Star Dou Great Forest. A pillar of golden light shot straight into the sky.

The entire Star Dou Great Forest erupted into turmoil. A noble-looking Soul Beast with three eyes and magnificent golden fur like amber slowly awoke. It pinpointed the aura and appeared before Huo Yuhao ahead of everyone else.

"A human?"

"Why do you carry the Golden Dragon Bloodline!!"

The next instant, the auras of Ferocious Beasts erupted throughout the Star Dou Great Forest.

Elsewhere, Tang San had just been teleported out of the Comparison Arena when he saw Gangzi sitting dejectedly on the ground before him, tears streaming down his face. He had lost everything.

"It's over. It's all over, Little San. Your teacher really has nothing left!"

"Even Sanpao is gone!!"

"I trusted you so much, and this is how you repay me...!!!"

Thud!!!

Wracked with guilt, Tang San dropped to his knees before Yu Xiaogang and repeatedly knocked his forehead against the ground.

"Teacher! Teacher, you can't blame me! They cheated!"

"That kid looked like he had a Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul and wore such an honest face, but he was full of dirty tricks! He's even more devious than Huo Yuhao. He only used his trump card when I got close."

Yu Xiaogang's eyes lit up at Tang San's words.

"Right, right, right! Tang Wulin cheated too, just like Huo Yuhao."

"Huo Yuhao can barely explain where his power came from, but what about Tang Wulin?"

Tang San nodded frantically.

"Yes, yes, yes, Teacher. We can only count on you to report him under your real name."

Yu Xiaogang's face froze.

"Little San, I already filed one real-name report. It cost me a full ten years of my life. Your teacher really can't take another hit like that."

Yu Xiaogang stole a sideways glance at Tang San, desperately hinting that Tang San should file the report himself.

Tang San didn't understand. Whether he truly didn't or was only pretending was anyone's guess.

"Teacher, what should we do, then? Are we really going to let those cheaters run wild while hardworking people like us suffer such an unjust accusation?"

Yu Xiaogang abruptly changed his tune.

"Actually, it isn't such a big deal. You only need to promise me that once you become a god, you'll take me to the Divine Realm."

"Once I'm in the Divine Realm, I'll have a long life. What difference will eight or ten years make?"

Tang San was stunned.

"Become a god?"

"Me?"

Seeing Tang San's surprise, Yu Xiaogang hurriedly explained.

"After you entered the Comparison Space, the Heavenly Screen revealed your future. You'll become a god."

Tang San was overjoyed.

"All right, Teacher. I promise. If I become a god one day and there's no limit on how many people I can take with me, I'll take you."

Yu Xiaogang was delighted to hear it.

"I, Yu Xiaogang, am filing a real-name report that Tang Wulin cheated!"

Buzz!!!

A beam of golden light descended. Along with it came Qian Daoliu and five other Consecrators of Spirit Hall, who had been searching for Tang San in Fasinuo Province of the Heaven Dou Empire.

"You evil little wretch of the Clear Sky Sect! Tang San, get out here and die!!!"

When Tang San saw seven Super Douluos in the sky, each with nine Soul Rings floating around him, every hair on his body stood on end.

The Douluo III Era.

Tang Wulin had just been teleported back to the time of Legend of the Dragon King.

Eastsea City suddenly went dark.

Evil Soul Masters appeared in dense swarms.

"Tang Wulin was chosen for the Heavenly Screen comparison! We absolutely cannot let him grow into the future's Number One!!!"

Everyone watching the three Heavenly Screens across the three worlds erupted.

"Wow, wow, wow. So this is another benefit of being exposed by the Heavenly Screen?"

"All three Heavenly Screen participants were hunted down one after another. Huo Yuhao and Tang Wulin are the most innocent of the lot."

"Tang San had it coming!!!"

Before long, everyone watching the Heavenly Screen sensed that something was off.

"Tang San destroys Spirit Hall in the future, so it makes sense for Spirit Hall to hunt him down now, before he rises to power."

"Tang Wulin will become the Number One of the Douluo III Era, so Evil Soul Masters taking revenge on him early just about makes sense too."

"But why on earth have the Ferocious Beasts of the Star Dou Great Forest set their sights on Huo Yuhao???"

Huo Yuhao felt wronged too. He hadn't done a thing. He had only just left the Comparison Space when a Three-Eyed Soul Beast set its sights on him. She eyed him suspiciously and kept demanding to know why he carried the Golden Dragon Bloodline. When he didn't answer, she even tried to lay hands on him.

How could Huo Yuhao put up with her?

Electrolux, after all, had yet to fall completely asleep. The disturbance startled him awake within the soul he had merged with.

With a casual move, he suppressed the Three-Eyed Soul Beast who had demanded to know the origin of his bloodline, leaving her completely at his mercy.

Then the Star Dou Great Forest erupted into chaos, and the Ferocious Beasts emerged.
