Qian Renxue's Reward (1 / 2)

Outside Heaven Dou City.

Qian Renxue stared blankly at the Sky Ranking List:

"My Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul actually isn't first. Whose Martial Soul surpassed mine...?"

Beside her, Porcupinefish Douluo and Snake Lance Douluo remained silent, their eyes filled with disbelief as they gazed at the Sky Ranking List.

The ranking remained for a minute before disappearing, and a new line of text slowly emerged on the list.

Countless living beings across the Douluo Continent perked up, their eyes fixed on the Sky Ranking List.

"The evaluation of the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul is here."

"Although I've known about the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul for ages, I know very little about this Martial Soul. Now I'll finally get my wish."

Under countless gazes, the new line of text fully appeared.

[Evaluation: Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul, a divine-grade power attack system Martial Soul inherited from the Angel God. Naturally possesses the Angel Domain and level-twenty innate Soul Power. Possesses ultimate light and sacred attributes, making it the bane of all evil. Its potential is exceedingly rare.]

At the sight, every living being on the Douluo Continent froze.

Naturally possessed the Angel Domain.

Level-twenty innate Soul Power.

Those two statements exploded like two bombs in everyone's minds, leaving their scalps tingling and their jaws hanging open.

Even their thoughts briefly ground to a halt.

After that stunned silence, the Douluo Continent instantly erupted.

"W-w-what did I just see?!! A built-in domain!! Level-twenty innate Soul Power!!!"

"Heavens! The Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul is actually that terrifying! Level-twenty innate Soul Power!! Isn't innate full Soul Power level ten? The Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul actually breaks that rule!"

"Terrifying, absolutely terrifying. The six-winged angel martial soul is actually that powerful. No wonder its wielders can lead Spirit Hall. No wonder Spirit Hall has endured for so long without declining."

"Wait, this only ranks second? Are you kidding me? Something this outrageously powerful is only second? Just how terrifying must first place be?!"

"Exactly! The Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul is this terrifying, yet it only ranks second!"

"How can such a terrifying Martial Soul only rank second? I refuse to believe there's a Martial Soul in this world stronger than the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul!!"

"Fuck! I want to see just what the hell the first-place Martial Soul is, to actually beat the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul!"

"I'm waiting right here for first place to appear. I want to see where the first-place Martial Soul outclasses the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul! Don't tell me it's stronger because of self-created Spirit Skills? I won't accept that!!"

"..."

At Blue Tyrant Academy.

Tang San stared blankly at the Sky Ranking List:

"A built-in Angel Domain and level-twenty innate Soul Power?! How could such a terrifying Martial Soul exist on the Douluo Continent?!!"

He had thought his innate full Soul Power already made him unrivaled under heaven, never imagining someone could be even more formidable.

Wait, this isn't even first. How could the first-place Martial Soul possibly be stronger than the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul?!

Tang San simply could not imagine a Martial Soul stronger than the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul.

Dai Mubai and the others all stared at the Sky Ranking List in dumbfounded shock, their jaws nearly dropping to the ground.

Flender, Liu Erlong, and the others fell silent as well.

A Martial Soul this outrageously powerful simply should not exist!

At Long Yichen's Residence, not far from Blue Tyrant Academy.

Long Yichen reclined in a lounge chair, letting the golden sunlight spill over him.

He looked at the Sky Ranking List and murmured to himself:

"The Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul made the list. This reward should belong to Qian Renxue.

"What a shame. To prove her abilities to Bibi Dong, Qian Renxue actually willingly went undercover within the Heaven Dou Imperial Family to seize the throne, wasting huge amounts of cultivation time and neglecting her cultivation.

"She should thank heaven and earth if she even has level-sixty Soul Power now. After all, according to the original story, when Tang San exposed her seven or eight years later, the twenty-nine-year-old Qian Renxue was still only a Soul Saint.

"What a pity she can't maximize the reward. Hmm... forget it. It's none of my business. I don't even know Qian Renxue, so I'm not going to worry about it."

He already had Chen Yuezhu and had no interest in other women.

No matter how beautiful Qian Renxue was, Long Yichen did not believe she could be more beautiful than Chen Yuezhu.

With that thought, he rubbed his chin:

"Come to think of it, I've only met Ning Rongrong. I haven't seen any of the others.

"Now I'm suddenly a little curious what Qian Renxue actually looks like. Hmm... in a couple of days, I'll visit the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace and take a look.

"I want to see whether she's prettier than Sister Yuezhu."

Outside Heaven Dou City.

"The evaluation is fair enough."

Qian Renxue looked at the Sky Ranking List and nodded, then clenched her fists:

"I want to see exactly where the first-place Martial Soul surpasses my Six-Winged Angel."

On the Sky Ranking List, the evaluation remained for a minute before disappearing, replaced by a new line of text.

[Rating: Ten stars]

At the sight, none of the living beings on the Douluo Continent were surprised.

"Ten stars, just as expected. Even such a terrifying Martial Soul only gets ten stars. It looks like ten really is the maximum."

"Soon. It'll be first place's turn any moment now."

"I'm staying right here to watch. I have to see what the first-place Martial Soul is, whether its quality surpasses the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul or whether, like the Clear Sky Hammer, it made the list thanks to powerful self-created Spirit Skills..."

The rating remained for a minute before disappearing, and two new lines of text slowly emerged.

Countless living beings across the Douluo Continent watched, their eyes burning with anticipation.

"The reward for second place is here."

"I'm not curious about the reward, but I am curious who'll receive it."

"I heard there's only one wielder of the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul, right? After all, the previous pope, Qian Xunji, died without leaving any children. Only the pope before him remains, the sole wielder of the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul."

"Probably. Sigh, if that's true, wouldn't the Qian Family's line die out? Wouldn't Spirit Hall eventually fall into outsiders' hands? What a shame."

"..."

Under countless gazes, those two new lines of text appeared.

[Reward: All soul ring ages increased by 140,000 years; soul power increased by one level]

[Reward recipient: Qian Renxue]

"????"

Everyone on the Douluo Continent stared at the reward recipient in utter bewilderment.

"Wait, who is this Qian Renxue? Why have I never even heard of them?"

"With the surname Qian and a Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul, she must be from the Qian Family. But that name clearly sounds like a woman's. I remember the pope before last was a man."

"Holy crap, no way. Did the previous pope, Qian Xunji, leave behind a child before he died? Why haven't we heard about this?"

"Uh, could it be that the pope before last had a daughter in his old age to keep the Qian Family's line from dying out?"

"That makes sense..."

Before the Papal Hall.

Bibi Dong looked at the Sky Ranking List, a trace of complicated emotion flashing through her eyes before vanishing in an instant. She gave a cold snort:

"So she did get the reward."

At the Worship Hall.

"Hahaha, the young mistress really did receive the reward! Now she can finally make up for the losses from neglecting her cultivation."

Golden Crocodile Douluo laughed aloud.

Qian Daoliu looked at the Sky Ranking List and shook his head helplessly:

"I never wanted Xiao Xue to go to the Heaven Dou Empire, but she insisted. She neglected her cultivation to seize the throne. Otherwise, she would at least be a Soul Douluo by now and could maximize the reward. What a shame..."
