Spirit Hall!
Qian Daoliu went cold all over. Killing intent, icy to the extreme, poured from him, and the temperature around him plunged.
Spirit Hall was the Qian Family's legacy, built over ten thousand years. To hear that it had been destroyed drove Qian Daoliu nearly mad with hatred.
If he learned who had destroyed Spirit Hall, he would tear them limb from limb and grind their bones to ash.
He had to save Spirit Hall. Otherwise, even in death, he would have no face to show his ancestors.
"Golden Crocodile, Azure Luan, Lion, Guang Ling, Qian Jun—watch closely. The moment Mr. Xiao Ran tells us who destroyed Spirit Hall, we old fellows will move together. We must strangle this threat in the cradle."
The five men Qian Daoliu had named bristled with killing intent. They cupped their fists and answered as one.
"At your command!"
Then they stared at the Sky Screen, eyes wide as bronze bells, determined not to miss a single detail.
Papal Hall!
Bibi Dong laughed with delight in her heart. Spirit Hall was destroyed in the end. She only wished she knew whose hand had brought it down.
But she was Spirit Hall's pope now. She could hardly show how pleased she was.
"Watch closely, all of you. Find out who destroyed Spirit Hall, and remember them well."
Hu Liena, Chrysanthemum Douluo, and Ghost Douluo genuinely did not want to see Spirit Hall destroyed. They answered firmly.
"Yes, Your Holiness!"
Blue Star!
Qian Renxue was so agitated that spittle flew as she spoke, spraying Xiao Ran's face.
He wiped it off with a look of disgust.
"Qian Renxue, calm down."
"If I've told you Spirit Hall was destroyed, I'll tell you how it happened."
Xiao Ran took a deep breath. Qian Renxue's fragrance kept drifting into his nose.
"It was destroyed by an alliance: the Heaven Dou Empire, the Star Luo Empire, the survivors of the annihilated Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, the Clear Sky Sect, which had sealed its gates and gone into hiding, and Shrek Academy. But the most important figure was Tang San."
With every name Xiao Ran listed, Qian Renxue's expression darkened. When he reached Tang San, she asked in astonishment:
"Tang San? I know he has great potential, but you're saying he was the main reason Spirit Hall was destroyed? How?"
Xiao Ran patted the hand gripping his shoulder, urging her to let go.
Qian Renxue released him sheepishly, but kept her eyes fixed on him without blinking. She wanted to hear how Tang San had destroyed Spirit Hall.
Xiao Ran went on eating potato chips as he spoke:
"Because Tang San ultimately achieved far more than you or Bibi Dong. You became the Angel God, and Bibi Dong became the Rakshasa God."
"But Tang San became two gods in one: the Sea God and the Asura God. The Angel God, the Rakshasa God, and the Sea God are all First-Level Gods in the Divine Realm. The Asura God, though, is a God King—one of the five members of the God Realm Committee, an enforcer of the Divine Realm with the authority to judge the gods."
"You and Bibi Dong couldn't defeat Tang San. Bibi Dong was killed, while you lost your divine position and your Soul Power remained at level 89 for the rest of your life. Your Spirit Hall... Oh, right, it had been renamed the Spirit Hall Empire by then. It fell to that alliance, with Tang San playing the decisive role."
Qian Renxue lowered her head, unsure whether to laugh or cry.
The Angel God was the Qian Family's ancestor. Becoming the Angel God in the future was certainly something to celebrate.
But Tang San would strip her of her divine position, leave her Soul Power stuck at level 89 for life, and destroy Spirit Hall as well.
That was a hatred too deep to measure!
Douluo Continent!
Heaven Dou Imperial City!
Yu Xiaogang opened his mouth, so embarrassed he wanted to dig a hole with his toes. He had thought his world-shaking wisdom would destroy Spirit Hall. Instead, Tang San would become both the Sea God and the Asura God.
Only after defeating Angel God Qian Renxue and Rakshasa God Bibi Dong would he destroy Spirit Hall.
Those were two gods!
If Tang San had not become a god as well, it might have been the Heaven Dou Empire, the Star Luo Empire, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, the Clear Sky Sect, and the other sects that were destroyed.
Before two gods, Yu Xiaogang's world-shaking wisdom seemed worth little.
Tang San's eyes gleamed. His whole body trembled with excitement, and his hands clenched into fists.
The Sea God and the Asura God, two gods in one!
That sounded incredible!
Xiao Ran had just said on the Sky Screen that the Angel God, the Rakshasa God, and the Sea God were all First-Level Gods. The Asura God was a God King.
One of the five members of the God Realm Committee, an enforcer of the Divine Realm, with the authority to judge the gods.
He would be a god—and a God King at that.
God King Tang!
Heh, heh, heh...
The very sound of it left him feeling refreshed from head to toe.
At a moment like this, Ning Fengzhi knew just what to do.
He first turned to Yu Xiaogang and congratulated him with a broad smile:
"Grandmaster, you truly live up to your title. Tang San is your disciple, and you've raised him to become a god—two gods in one, surpassing even Angel God Qian Renxue and Rakshasa God Bibi Dong. Your world-shaking wisdom has my deepest admiration."
"Yes, yes!" Yu Xiaogang shot Ning Fengzhi an exhilarated glance, then turned to Tang San, his eyes shining.
"I raised a god!"
"My Martial Soul Theory is unrivaled in this age! Little San, you haven't disappointed me. All the care and effort I poured into training you..."
"It was worth it. Every bit of it."
Tang San was moved too. He embraced Yu Xiaogang tightly, his voice excited and choked with emotion.
"Teacher, thank you. Truly, thank you!"
"Without your guidance, there would be no Tang San as he is today, let alone the Tang San who will become two gods in one!"
"But Teacher, although Xiao Ran said on the Sky Screen that I'll become both the Sea God and the Asura God, I have no idea where to go to inherit their positions."
"With your vast knowledge of Soul Master theory, you can surely point me in the right direction."
At once, every eye fell on Yu Xiaogang. This was the perfect chance for him to prove his world-shaking wisdom.
After pondering for a moment, he said:
"I once came across some information. If you set sail from Vast Sea City on the western edge of the continent and brave danger after danger, you'll reach a place called Devil Island. It's extremely dangerous for mainland Soul Masters, hence the name."
"But its true name is Sea God Island..."
The Sea God and Sea God Island—the connection was plain to hear!
Ning Fengzhi's eyes flashed. He bowed to Tang San.
"Ning Fengzhi, sect master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, greets God King Tang."
"Your journey to Sea God Island will be fraught with peril. Besides the dangers of crossing the sea, Spirit Hall will hunt you. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is willing to send Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo to assist you."
Ning Fengzhi had wagered everything!
On hearing that Tang San would become both the Sea God and the Asura God, Ning Fengzhi was willing to send Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo to win his favor.
Tang San broke into a grin and helped Ning Fengzhi up.
"Uncle Ning, you honor me too much. I haven't become the Sea God and the Asura God yet. How could I deserve to be called God King Tang?"
"I'll be counting on Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo to protect me on the journey to Sea God Island. Sorry for the trouble."
