Tang San frowned and gently tried to persuade him.
"Don't be angry, Teacher..."
Yu Xiaogang's chest heaved violently as he roared.
"I've never been humiliated like this in my entire life!"
"And in the very field I excel at!"
"I've studied theory for over thirty years, mastering Soul Beasts, Soul Masters, and Martial Souls. How could I ever have failed? A two-million-year Soul Beast is simply impossible, and they even called me Useless Gang!"
"How am I useless? There's only one Soul Master with outstanding talent like mine on this entire continent!"
Beside him, Ma Hongjun failed to hold it in and burst out laughing.
Yu Xiaogang whipped his gaze toward him, his eyes dangerous.
"What do you mean by that?"
Ma Hongjun desperately suppressed his laughter, shaking his head repeatedly with an earnest expression.
"N-nothing. Grandmaster is right. There really is only one of you on the entire continent."
Inside, Ma Hongjun was already laughing himself senseless.
After all, he really was the only one who could stay stuck at rank thirty while breaking past fifty years old. Hahahaha!
Tang San fell silent for a moment, then decided to tell the truth.
"Teacher, forgive my bluntness, but what you just said really was rather far-fetched."
"Since the Heavenly Screen revealed its information, it should actually exist..."
Yu Xiaogang choked, then waved his hand sharply and let out a breath.
"I know!"
"I'm just upset!"
"After being slammed like that, I have to win back some face!"
With that, something suddenly occurred to him, and his eyes lit up.
He immediately took a deep breath, preparing to post on the Heavenly Screen.
[Yu Xiaogang: even if what you say is true, and there really is a two-million-year Soul Beast over there, what does that have to do with you?]
[Yu Xiaogang: by my estimation, your continent must be one populated primarily by Soul Beasts, right?]
[Yu Xiaogang: Soul Beasts reign supreme, while humans are slaves! You human Soul Masters have probably long since been enslaved, haven't you? Perhaps everyone listed next will be Soul Beasts, too?]
[Yu Xiaogang: how else can you explain it? We're both continents, so why can your Soul Beasts cultivate to such heights?]
[Yu Xiaogang: they must have squeezed out the Soul Masters' living space and sucked up the spiritual energy of heaven and earth that should have belonged to you! Perhaps they've long since been treating you Soul Masters as food! How pathetic!]
As Yu Xiaogang's words fell, the spirits of countless Soul Masters on the Douluo Continent, which had already plunged to rock bottom, instantly recovered!
That was right!
There was another way to explain it!
[Chen Xin: Soul Beasts reign supreme... only upon hearing these words did this old man feel a chill down his spine. Humanity's place in this world is rooted in the inheritance of Martial Souls. If beasts truly rise above humans, that marks the beginning of rites collapsing and music falling silent!]
[Gu Rong: heh, no wonder they rushed over to mock us. Their masters were just walking their dogs, letting them out to bite people and make their presence felt!]
[Yu Yuanzhen: absurd! Letting brutes climb onto humanity's heads and lord over them-how could such a continent possibly compare with our Douluo Continent? Our Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan has a thousand-year legacy. We have only ever known humans commanding beasts, never beasts commanding humans!]
[Tang Xiao: everyone in the Clear Sky Sect fights for human Soul Masters. If the humans of the Holy Spirit Continent truly live in such humiliation... everyone, rather than attacking one another, we should pity them.]
[Bibi Dong: well said, Yu Xiaogang! As expected of the man I love!]
[Liu Erlong: get lost, homewrecker!]
[Bibi Dong: who are you calling a homewrecker?]
The Holy Spirit Continent.
The Holy Spirit Temple.
Every powerhouse present was dumbstruck.
Silence filled the hall for three full breaths.
Then every sort of reaction erupted, like water boiling over in a pot.
Holy Eye Muse was the first to recover. Her eyes, which saw the true nature of all things, were filled with an expression as though she had seen a ghost.
"Soul Beasts reign supreme, while humans are slaves... how... how did his brain develop that line of reasoning?"
"Humans and beasts have coexisted peacefully here for fifty thousand years, and with a single sentence, he's invented an entire history of enslavement written in blood and tears..."
Soronson stood with his hands behind his back. After hearing this theory, he actually gave two slow claps.
"I concede."
"Really, I admit it. In the field of barking like dogs, we truly can't hold a candle to them!"
"Our lord said their ability to dream things up was unparalleled. I thought he was exaggerating, but now it seems he was being conservative. Especially that fellow called Gang or whatever!"
Chaos Blake folded his arms, the corner of his mouth twitching.
"And the most ridiculous part is that the whole crowd over there actually believed it..."
"One dares to invent it, and a whole pack dares to believe it."
"That's a talent in its own right."
On the throne, Lin Yan's hand holding his teacup paused for half a beat.
Watching the "enslavement theory" flood the Heavenly Screen with ever-increasing enthusiasm, he suddenly chuckled.
"See that?"
"What did I tell you?"
"They really do have talent for dreaming things up and barking like dogs!"
Holy War Gaia, who had the fiercest temper, could not be bothered to offer another word of commentary.
He connected directly to the Heavenly Screen and let loose!
[Holy War Gaia: Yu Xiaogang! You call the garbage coming out of your mouth theory? Humans and beasts have lived together here for fifty thousand years, peacefully enough to eat at the same table! Yet you flap that big mouth and write us an entire history of enslavement. Have you no shame?]
[Holy War Gaia: did you buy that "theoretical grandmaster" sign wholesale from a roadside stall?]
[Yu Xiaogang: and who are you?]
[Holy War Gaia: I'm your Grandpa Gaia!]
[Yu Xiaogang: how uncivilized. Clearly, you're so used to being enslaved by Soul Beasts that you can't even speak like a human anymore.]
[Holy War Gaia: you code-scanning piece of trash!]
[Yu Xiaogang: I don't have a code. Mad about it?]
[Yu Yuanzhen: ?]
On the Heavenly Screen, the war of insults between the two realms reached a stalemate.
Just then.
Streams of light surged across the golden Heavenly Screen, and the Douluo Continent section abruptly changed!
Lines of large golden text appeared in succession across the sky.
[Douluo Continent section] [Nineteenth strongest-Yue Guan] [Martial Soul: singular velvet sky chrysanthemum, plant-type Martial Soul] [Affiliation: Spirit Hall · Elder] [Soul Power Level: rank 95 agility attack-type Titled Douluo] [Soul Rings: two yellow, two purple, five black] [Abilities: his movements drift like chrysanthemum petals on the wind, shifting seamlessly between attack and defense; singular velvet sky chrysanthemum petals can be supple or tough, turning into keen blades when sharpened, a sky-filling rain of flowers that blots out the sun and shrouds the heavens, with a single petal capable of cleaving metal and splitting stone; within his domain, petals serve as eyes, blades, and cages, trapping and killing as one] [Signature Soul Skill: ninth Soul Skill · Chrysanthemums wither, wounds cover the ground, flowers fall and hearts are torn asunder!] [Profile: an elder of Spirit Hall, jointly known with Ghost Douluo as the Chrysanthemum and Ghost Douluo] [Reward: Soul Power increased by one rank, all Soul Rings upgraded to ten thousand years, plus singular velvet sky chrysanthemum bloodline enhancement, raising his aptitude to new heights!]
Before the Heavenly Screen's golden light faded, a second information card appeared!
