Qian Renxue gazed at the enormous screen stretching across the heavens beyond the Phoenix God Realm, her golden eyes full of doubt.

"Xuanyuan, this Sky Screen... is it the work of Douluo Star's will?"

As someone whose power approached that of a God King, she could clearly sense that the Sky Screen drew upon the very source of Douluo Star.

It was a power that moved even her.

Feng Xuanyuan held a wine flask as he lounged against his throne. He smiled and nodded.

"Who else on this planet could pull off something like this, besides its will?"

"Looks like that brat Tang San has backed it into a corner."

"Otherwise, it wouldn't have risked offending me to conjure up this Sky Screen."

Qian Renxue froze for a moment.

"Offending you?"

"Mm."

Feng Xuanyuan swirled his wine flask, his tone casual.

"I am a Supreme God King. My divine body spans the heavens. Nothing that happens on this planet escapes my eyes."

"By putting up this Sky Screen, it's built a stage right under my nose—and it's showing the Phoenix God Continent."

"If I don't like the show, cleaving the entire Douluo Plane in two would take no more than a flick of my sword."

"But..."

Feng Xuanyuan changed tack and looked out beyond the realm.

"I just swept the whole of Douluo Star with my divine sense."

"Guess what I found?"

"What?" Qian Renxue asked.

"That hypocrite Tang San seems to have quietly laid some rather interesting traps across this planet."

"They're well hidden, buried deep, like a net cast over the whole of Douluo Star."

"Whoever laid them has designs on something big."

Qian Renxue's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly.

"Should we wipe them out?"

"No need."

Feng Xuanyuan waved a hand, a playful curve forming at the corner of his mouth.

"Leaving them there makes the game more interesting."

"Besides, this Sky Screen isn't a bad thing. Quite the opposite."

"The Phoenix God Continent has lain quiet for so long that people on the other continents have nearly forgotten there's a kingdom in the sky above their heads."

"Now that the Sky Screen links all three continents, everyone can get a good look at just how powerful the Phoenix God Continent has become."

"The more clearly they see, the more living beings will place their faith in me."

"And the more faith I receive, the more Immortal Spirit Qi I can produce."

"Then my Divine Realm can give rise to even more Godhoods!"

Realization dawned on Qian Renxue, and she could not help laughing.

"Even now, all you think about is sleeping and building up your reserves."

Feng Xuanyuan laughed heartily and tipped back his flask for another drink.

"What I'm really looking forward to is something else."

"That hypocrite Tang San has planted so many contingencies across the Douluo Continent. Clearly, he thinks this planet is his private preserve."

"What sort of face do you think he'll make when he sees what the Sky Screen broadcasts?"

Qian Renxue followed his gaze to the Sky Screen spanning the heavens, and the corners of her lips rose too.

"That will be interesting."

The enormous golden Sky Screen rearranged itself into two distinct sections.

Above was the [News Section], still blank for now.

Below was the [Chat Interface], crowded with flickering names.

Both sections were divided into three regions: [Douluo Continent], [Sun Moon Continent], and [Phoenix God Continent].

The three regions were as distinct as rivers that did not mingle.

After a brief silence on the Chat Interface, a new message suddenly appeared.

[Xuan Zi: I am the commander of Shrek Academy's Inspection Corps, a Level 98 Super Douluo! What is this so-called Sky Screen? Some trick of the Evil Soul Masters? You're courting the Way of Seeking Death!]

No sooner had that message appeared than another slowly floated up.

[Zhang Peng: Don't get the wrong idea, Xuan Zi. We Evil Soul Masters couldn't make something like this. But it's been years since we last met. I hear you still can't get enough chicken legs. How many poultry farms have you eaten out of business by now?]

In an instant, who knew how many people across the Douluo Continent burst out laughing.

Shrek Academy, Sea God Island.

An old man in shabby clothes, half a chicken leg still clutched in his hand, turned the color of pig liver before their eyes.

"Scorpion Tiger Douluo Zhang Peng!"

"You Evil Soul Master wretch! How dare you run your mouth at me!"

But before he could lash out, another message appeared.

[Jing Hongchen: Heh. Xuan Zi still has quite the temper. I just want to ask: does Shrek Inspection Corps label everyone it dislikes an Evil Soul Master?] [Xuan Zi: Jing Hongchen, master of Virtue Hall? You dare spread lies about Shrek, the holy land of Soul Masters? Aren't you afraid to die?!] [Jing Hongchen: Afraid to die? One on one, I don't fear you! On a large battlefield, I'm even stronger than you! If you don't believe me, let's each bring a hundred thousand troops to the Mingdou Mountain Range and have it out! We'll see who comes home victorious and whose army is wiped out!] [Zhang Peng: Hall Master Hongchen, stop provoking Xuan Zi. The strongest generation of the Shrek Seven Devils was wiped out under his protection, you know! That year, more of Shrek's elite fell on his watch than at the hands of us Evil Soul Masters!]

Those words struck Shrek Academy across the face like a resounding slap.

"Bastard! Bastard! Bastard!"

Xuan Zi's face flushed crimson, and he snorted like an enraged ox.

“I'll smash that damned Sky Screen today!”

With a roar, he raised his palm to strike the Sky Screen in the heavens.

But just then, a withered hand silently settled on his shoulder.

Xuan Zi's body went rigid.

At some point, an elderly man with white hair and beard and a stooped frame had appeared behind him.

The old man merely stood there, yet Xuan Zi's Super Douluo pressure vanished without a trace, like a clay ox sinking into the sea.

“Junior Granduncle...”

Xuan Zi turned around, the anger on his face instantly giving way to respect.

"Xuan Zi, don't act rashly!"

Mu En lifted his clouded eyes toward the Sky Screen in the heavens and spoke.

"I can sense an immeasurably vast power up there."

"That power... is not something we can stand against."

Those words sent towering waves surging through Xuan Zi's heart.

What sort of figure was Dragon God Douluo Mu En?

A Level 99 Limit Douluo, the strongest person in the Soul Master World!

If even he said they could not stand against it...

What kind of being was behind the Sky Screen?

Meanwhile, messages continued to scroll across the Chat Interface.

[Du Busi: Hahahaha! Xuan Zi, you've lived all these years and still haven't grown a brain!]

Wait...

Why can I see "Dragon God Douluo Mu En" in the chat list?

He's still alive?!

Heaven Dou Empire, Body Sect.

A tall, green-haired old man with a bald patch at the center of his forehead stared fixedly at the Sky Screen, his pupils contracting sharply.

He was Du Busi, the master of the Body Sect.

"Impossible... In that battle years ago, he and my elder brother wounded each other grievously!"

"My brother died. Mu En must have suffered damage to his very source and had little time left..."

"And yet he's still alive?!"

At the same time, elsewhere.

Sun Moon Continent, Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy.

A slender, delicate-looking young man studied the Sky Screen thoughtfully.

[Xiao Hongchen: Which senior is the Dragon God Douluo? Why have I never heard of him?] [Du Busi: You must be one of Jing Hongchen's juniors, eh? You're still wet behind the ears. No wonder you haven't heard of him. The Dragon God Douluo is a Level 99 Limit Douluo. His Martial Soul is the Radiant Sacred Dragon, and he once led Shrek Academy as master of the Sea God Pavilion!]

[Xiao Hongchen: A Level 99 Limit Douluo?

Doesn't that make him the strongest Soul Master alive?!]

Just then, a message slowly appeared in the [Phoenix God Continent] region of the Chat Interface.

[Spirit Hall Empire Empress Feng Ji ge: Limit Douluo is not the end of a Soul Master's path, nor does it make one the strongest!] ```
