Countless Soul Masters froze at the line about the weaknesses of the ten great Soul Beasts.
Even Bibi Dong and the others, who were locked in fierce combat, stopped.
"A rundown of their weaknesses?"
"The sky screen is going to reveal the weaknesses of the ten great Soul Beasts outright?"
"Doesn't that mean we can use their weaknesses against them?"
"Wonderful!"
Even Bibi Dong could not help showing a trace of delight!
Chrysanthemum Douluo's eyes lit up as well.
"Your Holiness!"
"If the sky screen reveals the White Tiger's weakness, we'll have a chance!"
Near the Qingchuan Mountain Range.
Excitement returned to the faces of the Soul Masters who had still been somewhat afraid of the Azure Dragon.
They did not dare approach the Azure Dragon rashly.
But if the sky screen could reveal the Azure Dragon's fatal weakness, the situation would be entirely different!
Yu Yuanzhen immediately ordered his clansmen to wait until they had heard the sky screen reveal the Azure Dragon's weakness before going in to hunt it!
Elsewhere.
Ning Fengzhi and the others, who had already traveled far from White Tiger Canyon, stopped at the same time.
Bone Douluo looked back toward the canyon.
"Is there still time to go back?"
Sword Douluo shook his head. "I'm afraid Spirit Hall won't let us approach so easily again."
"Let's see what the rankings say first."
"If that doesn't work, we'll go find that Vermilion Bird. Others fear fire, but the two of us don't."
Neither Sword Douluo nor Bone Douluo showed the slightest fear in his eyes.
Inside the Clear Sky Sect.
The elders' expressions also grew serious.
The Soul Rings and Soul Bones of the ten great Soul Beasts were already tempting enough.
Once their weaknesses were revealed, there would probably not be a single force of any standing on the continent that could remain unmoved!
Tang Xiao looked up at the sky screen and said solemnly:
"It seems the time has come for our Clear Sky Sect to emerge into the world again!"
Hearing his words, all the elders showed excitement on their faces!
After so many years, can our Clear Sky Sect finally stop hiding its head and tail?
On Sea God Island.
Tang San and the others looked at the Black Tortoise before them, which resembled a black mountain range, then at the weakness rankings in the sky.
Their expressions immediately grew somewhat complicated.
The Black Tortoise had only just arrived on Sea God Island, and the sky screen was about to reveal its weakness. Wasn't this practically a delivery to their doorstep?
A two-hundred-thousand-year Soul Beast. If we could successfully hunt it, even Bo Saixi would probably be tempted, wouldn't she? Tang San thought.
Bo Saixi, however, did not lower her guard because of this.
She watched the Black Tortoise while waiting for the sky screen to reveal more.
Soon, the words on the golden screen changed again.
[These rankings will be determined by how fatal the weaknesses are!] [The more obvious a weakness, the easier it is to exploit, and the greater its impact on the Soul Beast, the higher it will rank!] [The rankings will reveal how the weaknesses formed, as well as methods for targeting them!] [The weakness rankings of the ten great Soul Beasts will begin shortly!] [The weakness of the tenth-ranked Soul Beast will soon be revealed!]
The golden words hovered in the sky.
Countless Soul Masters held their breath, quietly awaiting what came next.
But a moment later...
The words at the center of the screen suddenly dissolved into golden light.
No new scene appeared.
Instead, four rays of completely different colors took their place!
Azure light in the east.
White light in the west.
Crimson light in the south.
Black light in the north.
Each of the four rays occupied a corner of the sky screen.
Immediately afterward, the figures of the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise actually appeared on the sky screen at the same time!
At this sight, many Soul Masters across the continent were puzzled.
"Weren't they going to reveal the tenth-place weakness?"
"Why bring out the top four?"
"Hurry up and show the weaknesses! We're waiting for them to save our lives!"
"Exactly! What if this delay lets the Soul Beasts get away?"
Just then, a voice even louder than before swiftly spread throughout the Douluo Continent.
[Before the weakness rankings are officially revealed, the special attributes and connections of the top four Soul Beasts will be revealed first!] [These special attributes and connections are the basis for placing the four beasts in the top four.] [The Azure Dragon, Vermilion Bird, White Tiger, and Black Tortoise are not four independent Soul Beasts with no connection to one another!] [A special bond exists between the four beasts!]
The moment those words ended...
The four Soul Beasts on the sky screen opened their eyes simultaneously.
The azure scales on the Azure Dragon's body lit up.
The Vermilion Bird spread its wings, and crimson flames shot straight into the sky.
The White Tiger raised its head and roared.
The tortoise and serpent heads on the Black Tortoise's back rose high.
Four pillars of azure, crimson, white, and black light burst from their bodies and collided at the center of the golden sky screen!
Boom!
Even though it was merely an image on the sky screen, the Soul Masters felt a terrifying pressure rush straight at them!
Some weaker Soul Masters even instinctively retreated several steps.
New golden words and a voice followed immediately.
[The four beasts guard the east, west, south, and north of the continent, respectively.] [The Azure Dragon governs vitality and lightning!] [The White Tiger governs slaughter and the mind!] [The Vermilion Bird governs blazing flames and rebirth!] [The Black Tortoise governs defense and the waters!] [The powers of the four beasts complement one another, and their bloodlines resonate with each other!] [If the four beasts gather, they can activate the Four Holy Beasts Bond!] [Once the four beasts complete their fusion, their power will directly surpass God Level!]
After the final line appeared, the entire Douluo Continent fell silent.
Ordinary people and Soul Masters alike could not react for a moment.
Surpass God Level?
For the vast majority of Soul Masters, gods were beings of legend to begin with.
They did not even know just how powerful a god was.
But the sky screen had just revealed it.
The million-year Deep Sea Demonic Whale King was merely close to God Level, still one step away from becoming a god.
Yet now it said that these four two-hundred-thousand-year Soul Beasts could actually surpass God Level after fusing!
The gap between the two needed no further explanation.
After a brief silence...
Deafening discussion erupted across the continent at the same time.
"Above God Level!"
"After fusing, these four Soul Beasts can actually become stronger than a god?"
"No wonder they ranked above the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King!"
"This is the true secret of the top four!"
"If someone could obtain the Soul Rings of these four Soul Beasts, wouldn't they be invincible under heaven?"
"Obtain all four Soul Rings? What are you thinking? The White Tiger could slap a whole group of Soul Douluos dead with one swipe!"
Only at this moment did many people finally accept the principles behind the rankings.
The sky screen had not merely revealed the current strength of the four Soul Beasts.
It had also factored in the bloodline bond between them!
The million-year Deep Sea Demonic Whale King was indeed powerful.
But the Four Holy Beasts could fuse with one another, gathering four completely different powers together!
That was power surpassing a god! Just thinking about it was terrifying!
White Tiger Canyon.
Bibi Dong hovered in midair, maintaining her Soul-Eating Spider Emperor True Body.
Traces of the White Tiger's blood still remained on several spider legs behind her.
The White Tiger's left foreleg had also been corroded by purplish-black power, and its injury was gradually worsening.
But at this moment, neither Bibi Dong nor the other Spirit Hall experts continued attacking.
Everyone stared blankly at the sky.
