Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon? A crossbreed deserves the name dragon? The rankings reveal more

[Meng Jiu: Wait, let me get this straight. Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon? Where did this crossbred martial soul come from?!]

[Old Wang: Hahahaha, no, are you serious? A crossbred martial soul can be called the world's greatest beast martial soul? Has your Douluo Continent's Soul Master system become that pathetic?]

[Zhou Yueban: It suddenly makes sense. No wonder they're always going on about their noble bloodlines. They've never seen a pureblood!]

[Wei Lai: Yu Yuanzhen, have you ever seen a dragon? A true dragon? Yours is nothing but a lightning serpent!]

[Mo Yuan: What a joke. A mere lightning serpent dares to usurp the name of dragon? A defective mongrel that can't even grow dragon scales deserves to call itself a dragon? Not every stray cat or dog deserves to use that name.]

[Mo Yuan: Open those dog eyes of yours wide in a moment and look carefully. The Holy Spirit Continent will show you what a true dragon is, and what a true dragon martial soul is!]

[Yu Yuanzhen: You!!!!]

At the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.

Yu Yuanzhen was so furious he nearly suffered internal injuries.

He was the dignified patriarch of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, nearly a hundred years old, at the helm of a thousand-year-old lineage.

When had he ever suffered such humiliation?!

And they had pointed at his bloodline and called it a defective mongrel in front of the countless millions of beings across both realms!

His chest heaved violently, a breath caught in his throat that would neither rise nor fall.

Just then, Yu Xiaogang spoke on the Heavenly Screen.

[Yu Xiaogang: Father, don't get worked up! They're deliberately provoking you. Don't fall for their bait and lose your dignity!]

After soothing him, Yu Xiaogang changed tack and began questioning them.

[Yu Xiaogang: All you've got left is your mouths! You say the Clear Sky Hammer is no good, and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon is no good. Are you so great? Then show us something!]

[Yu Xiaogang: I'd like to ask, if you've truly developed martial souls to their ultimate potential, why would you need to mess around with soul tools? It's precisely because your martial souls have no future that you've sought another path through external aids. What is that if not a guilty conscience?!]

[Yu Xiaogang: And the facts really are surprising. Your Holy Spirit martial souls aren't anything special! A brain martial soul? An unheard-of, fringe trash martial soul! Level 93? A Titled Douluo? Tsk, tsk, any elder on our continent exceeds that level!]

The moment he said this, voices of agreement rose across the Heavenly Screen.

[Tang San: Teacher is right. If they had that kind of confidence, why would they develop soul tools?]

[Ning Fengzhi: A sound argument, backed by reason! In my view, that so-called First-Level God's combat power is probably just an empty shell propped up by piles of soul tools!]

[Chen Xin: Tool martial souls and beast martial souls each have their own path. But using the brain as a martial soul? In all my decades traveling this continent, I've never heard of such crooked practices. No wonder you've hit a dead end and turned to developing soul tools.]

[Yu Yuanzhen: Good! Well said! A fringe trash martial soul-that's exactly right!]

[Tang Xiao: Grandmaster's words speak straight to my heart.]

[Tang Hao: Heh.]

The people on the Holy Spirit Continent laughed.

Faced with this lofty argument built on sweeping generalizations, their rebuttals arrived right on cue.

[Meng Jiu: What a joke. Developing soul tools gives less talented Soul Masters a way forward. How does that mean our entire continent's martial souls are no good? By your logic, making a crutch for someone on your continent who has trouble walking means everyone on your continent is crippled? Grandmaster truly lives up to his title. Your cultivation in logic is far higher than your soul power level!]

[Old Wang: Sweeping generalizations, switching concepts-one trick after another. Fine, fine, you win. When it comes to shamelessness, we really can't match you!]

[Wei Lai: Besides, since when was a brain martial soul a trash martial soul? It's just a different cultivation path. What the hell do you know?!]

[Xiao Tian: Seriously, though, I genuinely admire you. No matter when, no matter what situation you're in, no matter how many times you've been slapped in the face, you always stay this confident! No one on our Holy Spirit Continent could ever learn that mindset!]

Yet Yu Xiaogang seemed convinced he had gained the upper hand and spoke again.

[Yu Xiaogang: Facts speak louder than arguments!]

[Yu Xiaogang: In a moment, you'll see our Soul Masters make the rankings! Open your eyes wide then and see how the Heavenly Screen evaluates our martial souls and our Soul Masters!]

[Yu Xiaogang: Then look at your own ranked Soul Masters and see what a real gap is. Those cheating with soul tools don't count!]

The Holy Spirit Continent's Soul Masters merely smiled and said nothing more.

Their martial souls?

Heh, what was there left to look at?

But since things had already reached this point, there was no need to say anything else.

Once the Heavenly Screen revealed the Holy Spirit Continent's Soul Masters, those country bumpkins would naturally realize.

Just how ridiculous they were now.

Meanwhile, the Heavenly Screen's Douluo Continent section began to change.

Golden light swirled, and lines of large text appeared across the sky.

[Douluo Continent section]

[Seventeenth strongest-Bone Douluo · Gu Rong]

[Martial soul: Bone dragon]

[Affiliation: Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect · Elder]

[Soul power level: Level 95 Titled Douluo]

[Soul rings: Two yellow, two purple, five black]

[Abilities: His entire cultivation lies in a single word: bone. During Martial Soul Possession, an enormous white-boned dragon hundreds of feet long appears behind him. Its dragon bones can coil, crush, and ram; wherever its bone claws sweep, metal and stone shatter!]

[At the same time, his bone armor is harder than refined steel. Even a full-strength blow from a Douluo of the same level can scarcely scratch him. He also cultivates spatial power: his bone blades can rend the void, allowing him to traverse space in an instant and catch opponents off guard.]

[Signature soul skill: Ninth soul skill · Bone Transformation into Divine Dragon]

[Introduction: One of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's two sky-supporting pillars!]

[Reward: Soul power increased by one level. The ages of all nine soul rings are raised to ten thousand years. Also bestowed: one ancient immortal herb, Dragonblood Bonegrass!]

[Consuming it will refine his bone dragon bloodline and produce new bones from his marrow. With diligent cultivation, he can hope to break through to level 98 in the future!]

The instant Bone Douluo's ranking appeared, Yu Xiaogang and the others perked up.

[Yu Xiaogang: See that?! Did you all see that?! This is a Soul Master of our Douluo Continent! A bone dragon martial soul-the might of a beast martial soul! This is what I meant by facts speaking louder than arguments!]

[Yu Xiaogang: Weren't you just saying our martial souls were nothing special? He has both defense and spatial power, and after receiving his rewards, he'll be even more heaven-defying.]

[Gu Rong: Hahahaha! This is the first time in my life that these old bones have been praised like this! The Heavenly Screen is wise indeed! Friends from Holy Spirit, look closely. This is what they mean when they say old ginger packs the fiercest bite!]

[Ning Fengzhi: Congratulations, Uncle Gu!]

[Bibi Dong: Hmph. If even an elder of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect can receive such an evaluation of his martial soul, you might want to weigh just how powerful Spirit Hall is as a whole.]

[Tang Hao: A dragon is a dragon.]

The Holy Spirit Continent's Soul Masters merely glanced at the rankings.

They found them utterly revolting.

That's it?

If they were given a martial soul like that, it would take eight lifetimes of rotten luck.

But they couldn't even be bothered to mock it.

Soon enough, everything would become clear anyway!

The Heavenly Screen's Douluo Continent section wasn't finished yet.

Golden light surged once more, and the sixteenth place was revealed as well!
