[Strongest Human Monologue Ranking, tied for tenth place: Sea God Douluo Bo Saixi!]
Just as the vast majority of people thought the Heavenly Screen's revelations had ended for the time being, that indifferent yet majestic voice rang out once more.
As a result, countless living beings kept their eyes fixed on the Heavenly Screen, eager to see who would make the ranking.
"It seems the Heavenly Screen won't fall silent for the time being until it has revealed everyone tied for tenth place."
Watching the Heavenly Screen, Ning Fengzhi offered his own conjecture.
At first, he truly hadn't expected there to be a tie in the rankings.
But when Qian Daoliu's personal monologue officially ended, countless people realized it.
After all, the tie had already been mentioned by then.
As for who would share tenth place with Qian Daoliu, after watching his personal monologue, anyone on the continent who wasn't a fool could figure it out.
Bo Saixi and Tang Chen!
As the monologue had revealed, together with Qian Daoliu, they represented "invincibility at sea," "invincibility on land," and "invincibility in the sky," respectively!
Of course, whether Tang Chen could make the ranking was still unknown.
After all, in the eyes of the vast majority, Tang Chen had been missing for decades, his fate unknown. That meant he was dead.
"Just as I thought."
When the name and appearance of the newly ranked person appeared on the Heavenly Screen, many people across the continent had that same reaction, all independently of one another.
At Shrek Academy, Yu Xiaogang was full of curiosity. "Just what kind of person is this mysterious Douluo from Sea God Island?"
Sea God Island was still far too unfamiliar to people on the Douluo Continent.
Everyone had at least heard of Qian Daoliu and Tang Chen, and some of the older generation had even met them.
But if not for the Heavenly Screen, they might still have known nothing about Bo Saixi.
"That high priestess..." At the Clear Sky Sect, Tang Xiao recalled the days when he had gone to Sea God Island to deliver a letter.
He and Brother Hao had once gone to Sea God Island together to deliver a letter from their grandfather to her, so he had naturally met her.
But that was all. Beyond having met her, he knew next to nothing about her.
So Tang Hao and Tang Chen were also looking forward to it very much.
After all, through Qian Daoliu's monologue, they had learned that their grandfather was deeply in love with her, and that she was deeply in love with their grandfather as well.
Unfortunately, it was because of their grandfather's proud nature that the two had failed to end up together.
Heaven Dou Imperial City, the crown prince's residence.
"The Peerless Douluo who rejected Grandfather?" Watching the Heavenly Screen, Qian Renxue also grew curious and began looking forward to it.
In her heart, her grandfather was the greatest in the world, the very best person there was.
Yet in the end, he had lost to Tang Chen not only in strength, but in love as well.
"Young master, a letter has arrived from the hall. They hope you will abandon the Nation-Stealing Plan and return to the hall to focus on cultivation, inherit the Angel Godhood as soon as possible, and lead our Spirit Hall to its peak."
At that moment, Snake Lance Douluo She Long, who had returned, made his request with the utmost respect.
At his words, Qian Renxue's expression instantly turned cold. "Tell the hall that I don't need them pointing fingers at my actions. Grandpa hasn't even said anything yet, but that woman is already getting impatient."
In Qian Renxue's view, if Grandpa wanted her to return to Spirit Hall, he would never do it this way.
One look was enough to tell that this was one of that woman's tricks.
At that thought, a cold smile curved Qian Renxue's lips, and she said to herself, Now that woman knows I can become a god in the future, has she finally gotten impatient?
Qian Renxue's guess was actually only half right.
After learning that his granddaughter would become a god in the future, Qian Daoliu had indeed considered no longer indulging her little whims and having her return directly to Spirit Hall to cultivate diligently and inherit the godhood as soon as possible.
But the value of the Heart of Holy Light, the fortuitous opportunity he had received as a reward, far exceeded Qian Daoliu's expectations, giving him much greater confidence.
So if his granddaughter wanted to play, he would let her play. Once he, her grandfather, emerged from seclusion, he would be able to protect her even more effectively.
When it came to Qian Renxue, Qian Daoliu still felt both indulgent affection and guilt toward her.
Sea God Island, Sea God Hall.
Sea Dragon Douluo of the First Sacred Pillar looked at the Heavenly Screen and said excitedly, "That's wonderful! The high priestess really did make the ranking."
"That's right. Even that fellow Qian Daoliu made the ranking. Why wouldn't the high priestess?" Sea Horse Douluo of the Fourth Sacred Pillar chimed in.
The Sacred Pillars' delight was written all over their faces.
After all, Spirit Hall had once been a great enemy of Sea God Island. What if Qian Daoliu grew stronger and prepared to come back for another attack?
Now things were different. Their high priestess had made the ranking too, and she would also receive a fortuitous opportunity as a reward.
At the same time, this was an excellent chance to spread the renown of Sea God Island and the faith in the Sea God.
Surely no one really thought Sea God Island didn't want to expand the faith in the Sea God?
In the end, wasn't this all because of an oracle the Sea God had once given?
If these people couldn't leave Sea God Island, how were they supposed to spread word of the island and their faith in the Sea God?
Were they really supposed to rely on the Sea Soul Masters in the coastal cities?
Don't be ridiculous. The hierarchy of disdain between land Soul Masters and sea Soul Masters was all too real; they truly looked down on each other.
Tang Chen, are you watching?
Although High Priestess Bo Saixi said nothing, she couldn't hide the joy in her eyes.
Besides receiving the corresponding fortuitous opportunity for making the ranking, wouldn't this greatly increase the chances of Tang Chen seeing her?
With Qian Daoliu's monologue before this and her own monologue coming next, as long as Tang Chen still existed in this world, he would react in some way, wouldn't he?
Unfortunately, Bo Saixi was still indulging in too much wishful thinking.
The mind of the man she loved had long since been corroded.
[I am Bo Saixi. I have lived on Sea God Island since I was a child, and like all the sea people, I believed in our shared faith-the Sea God!]
[Sea God Island also had a rule: Sea Soul Masters living on the island all had to undergo a test when they turned eighteen.]
[Only by passing the test could they remain on Sea God Island and continue serving Lord Sea God.]
[Otherwise, they would be driven off Sea God Island. If the test was too difficult, they could even die during it.]
[The tests different people faced were completely different.]
[Some people's tests were very simple, so simple that they only had to dive into the sea and bring back a seashell. But others' tests were extremely difficult, requiring them to withstand an attack from the Great Enshrined.]
[The test varied from person to person. Generally speaking, it was related to the strength of the person being tested, and they also had to bear the corresponding risks.]
[The levels of the tests, from lowest to highest, were White Level, Yellow Level, Purple Level, Black Level, and the Red Level Top Assessment.]
[Even so, the people on the island almost never gave up on the tests.]
[The reason was very simple: these were not merely tests, but divine gifts bestowed by Lord Sea God.]
[An assessment of a higher level often meant that, after passing it, the person taking it could obtain more fortuitous opportunities.]
[For example, God-bestowed Soul Rings, God-bestowed Soul Power...]
