Peak Power Rankings! The Holy Spirit Cult?!

Qian Renxue had already risen to her feet.

Golden light fell across her fair face, making her violet eyes shine brilliantly.

Long Yuan set down his wine cup and looked out the window too.

High above the nine heavens.

The golden ranking that illuminated the entire Douluo Continent was slowly unfurling.

Spirit City.

Inside the Papal Palace.

Bibi Dong sat on the papal throne, her slender fingers tapping lightly on the armrest.

Her fitted papal gown hugged her full figure, and her legs, clad in black stockings, were crossed.

She was considering Spirit Hall's next move.

Rumble!

A thunderous sound came from above the nine heavens.

The entire Papal Palace shook, and fine dust drifted from its vaulted ceiling.

Bibi Dong raised her eyes.

"Yue Guan."

A moment later.

Chrysanthemum Douluo strode into the hall and bowed.

"Greetings, Your Holiness."

Bibi Dong looked toward the doors.

"What happened?"

Chrysanthemum Douluo answered at once.

"Your Holiness, a strange phenomenon has appeared in the sky."

"A giant golden scroll has appeared above Spirit City."

"It hangs high in the sky. Everyone on the continent can see it, and words are appearing on it."

Bibi Dong's fingers stopped tapping.

"Everyone on the continent can see it?"

She had led Spirit Hall for years and read countless ancient texts, yet she had never seen any record of such a phenomenon.

Not even a Titled Douluo could possibly create a disturbance that spanned the entire continent.

Bibi Dong stood, her papal gown falling around her.

"What manner of power is this?"

Her gaze passed through the hall's doors and settled on the dazzling golden light.

A thought surfaced in her mind.

Could heaven and earth be celebrating me?

Under my leadership, Spirit Hall will one day unite the continent.

And I, Bibi Dong, will go down in history and become the supreme Rakshasa God!

Vast Soul Power surged from her body.

The attendants on both sides of the hall lowered their heads, not daring to look directly at the pope.

Bibi Dong descended the steps and walked out of the Papal Palace with her scepter in hand.

Her long violet hair stirred behind her, and her legs in black stockings showed through the slit of her gown as she moved.

She looked up and immediately saw the golden ranking stretching across the sky.

Amid the boundless golden light, lines of ancient script slowly took shape.

[Douluo Power Rankings!]

[Only the top twelve under heaven will be ranked!]

[Humans and Soul Beasts alike may enter the rankings!]

[All who make the rankings will receive rewards!]

[The higher the rank, the greater the reward!]

Bibi Dong read the words on the ranking, a fervent gleam entering her eyes.

The top twelve under heaven.

Spirit Hall was filled with powerful experts, with the Worship Hall standing behind them.

Spirit Hall deserved a place on that list.

Outside Heaven Dou City.

Blue Tyrant Academy.

At that moment, the Shrek Seven Devils, Flender, Yu Xiaogang, Zhao Wuji, and the others had all gathered in the square.

Tang San stared up at the sky, his eyes grave.

"The Douluo Power Rankings?"

"Only the top twelve under heaven?"

The Tang Sect's records mentioned no such feat.

Making a scroll visible across the entire continent was already beyond his understanding of power.

Zhu Zhuqing lifted her cool, composed face, her gaze resting on the golden ranking.

"The top twelve on the continent. The twelve strongest beings in the world."

"I'm more curious about what wonders the ranking's rewards might hold."

Dai Mubai folded his arms across his chest.

"With a spectacle this grand, the rewards couldn't be ordinary."

Ning Rongrong lifted her pretty face, wearing the distinctive pride of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's little princess.

"Our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect has two Titled Douluo."

"Grandpa Sword and Grandpa Bone are both incredibly strong. They're sure to make the rankings!"

Oscar rubbed his chin.

"If Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo both make the rankings, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's name will resound across the world."

Ning Rongrong gave a soft snort.

"Our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's name already resounds across the world."

Everyone's eyes were fixed on the golden ranking.

Xiao Wu stood among the crowd but took no part in the discussion.

The line saying Soul Beasts could also make the rankings brought the Star Dou Great Forest to mind.

Da Ming and Er Ming are so strong. They'll definitely make the rankings.

Xiao Wu thought this to herself.

She quickly composed herself, unwilling to let anyone nearby notice anything amiss.

Yu Xiaogang stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes never leaving the golden scroll.

Make the rankings, and everyone on the continent would see his name.

That was what it truly meant to become famous across the continent.

The rankings would also bestow rewards. The higher the rank, the more astonishing the benefits.

Yu Xiaogang's breathing quickened.

If I could make the rankings too...

No sooner had the thought appeared than he glanced down at his hands.

Level twenty-nine Soul Power.

He had been trapped at that level for far too many years.

Yu Xiaogang raised his head, the fervor in his eyes undiminished.

Perhaps a reward from the rankings could overcome the flaw in his Martial Soul.

Star Dou Great Forest.

Lake of Life.

Rich life energy hung over the lake, its water as clear as an emerald.

Silver light rose from the lakebed.

Gu Yuena slowly opened her violet eyes.

She emerged from the Lake of Life, silver hair falling to her waist, her fair skin glowing softly in the golden light.

A flowing gown followed the curves of her figure. Her long, slender legs carried her across the lake's surface without raising a single ripple.

Gu Yuena stretched, her full curves on display.

She had slept for countless years.

Had the commotion above the nine heavens not been so immense, she would not have awakened now.

Gu Yuena looked up at the golden ranking.

"The top twelve on the Power Rankings?"

"The twelve strongest beings on the continent?"

"Humans and Soul Beasts can both be ranked?"

She raised a slender hand. A wisp of silver divine power pierced space and surged straight toward the sky.

The instant the divine power touched the golden ranking, it vanished without a trace.

Gu Yuena tried again, with the same result.

"Even I can't see through this golden ranking."

A tall man in black came to the lakeshore and knelt on one knee.

"My lord."

Di Tian glanced at the sky, his expression deeply respectful.

"With your strength, my lord, no one on the continent is fit to challenge you."

"First place on these Power Rankings must belong to you."

Gu Yuena lowered her hand.

She was the Silver Dragon King. She had inherited the Dragon God's command of the elements, and she herself existed at the level of a God King.

Among the humans and Soul Beasts of Douluo Continent, none could stand against her.

"First place should be mine, of course."

Gu Yuena gazed at the golden ranking, but a flicker of doubt passed through her violet eyes.

She had a feeling that, now this ranking had appeared, things would not be so simple.

Gu Yuena did not yet know.

A man who did not belong to this era had already arrived on the Douluo Continent.

That man was also her future husband.

Heaven Dou City.

The golden ranking spanned the sky, its boundless radiance bathing the entire city in gold.

The streets were already packed with people.

Soul Masters, nobles, and common folk alike had their heads raised, their eyes fixed on those few lines of text.

The tavern was noisier still.

Many patrons rushed out the door, while others threw open the windows and leaned halfway out to stare at the sky.

"The Douluo Power Rankings only take twelve people?"

"With so many powerful figures across the continent, won't anyone who makes it be standing at the very peak of the world?"

"Titled Douluo will definitely make it!"

"Titled Douluo vary in strength too. An ordinary Titled Douluo might not qualify."
