Clear Sky Douluo appeared

After the match, the Shrek team didn't immediately return to their lodgings. The continuous matches over the past few days had kept everyone on edge, and today they had defeated the formidable Star Luo Royal Academy. For once, Flender generously took everyone to a decent restaurant for a meal.

The atmosphere at the dinner table was noticeably more relaxed than in the previous days, especially for Ma Hongjun, who hadn't stopped talking since he sat down. Holding his cup, he leaned close to Tang San and said excitedly, "Third Brother, you're amazing! The moment that Clear Sky Hammer was revealed today, those people from the Star Luo Royal Academy were completely overwhelmed. Especially Dai Weisi and Zhu Zhuyun's Martial Soul Fusion Skill, it looked so intimidating, but in the end, you managed to hold it off. If I had such a powerful Martial Soul, I'd sleep with it."

Oscar smiled and took over the conversation. Although Dai Mubai had mixed feelings because of the Star Luo Royal Academy's defeat, he did not deny Tang San's performance today. Even Ning Rongrong couldn't help but ask a few more questions about the Clear Sky Hammer's abilities. After all, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and the Clear Sky Sect were both among the Upper Three Sects. She had heard of the reputation of the number one Tool Martial Soul in the world since she was a child. Now that she had actually seen it with her own eyes, she was naturally quite curious.

Faced with his companions' continuous praise, Tang San initially remained calm, but as the conversation increasingly revolved around the Clear Sky Hammer, the confidence he had just built up rapidly swelled within him.

A few days ago, he was defeated by Xing Yizhao, and then lost the match against the Blazing Fire Academy because his Blue Silver Grass was countered. Those two defeats had been weighing on his mind. But today was different. The Clear Sky Hammer stepped onto the arena for the first time and helped Shrek defeat the Hell White Tiger head-on, allowing him to rediscover the feeling of controlling the battle.

Tang San looked down at his right hand, his mind replaying the heavy and direct force of the Clear Sky Hammer as it fell.

The teacher's initial plan may not have been wrong.

But one's own choice is not wrong either.

If he had kept the Clear Sky Hammer hidden, waiting for the so-called perfect Soul Ring Configuration in the future, he would now only be able to rely on the Blue Silver Grass to face increasingly powerful enemies. But now it's different. Although the two Soul Ring are far from perfect, they have already given the Clear Sky Hammer a sufficiently powerful ability to fight head-on.

This power gave Tang San a confidence he had never had before.

Meanwhile, while the Shrek team was having dinner together, Flender, Zhao Wuji, and Yu Xiaogang were discussing today's match at their residence.

Yu Xiaogang sat in a chair with a stack of competition records beside him. Although he agreed to Tang San's early training with the Clear Sky Hammer Clear Sky Hammer, his feelings were still somewhat complicated after witnessing its power on the field. On one hand, Tang San did indeed achieve victory because of it; on the other hand, he also understood what it meant to attach a low-age spirit Soul Ring to Second Martial Soul spirit too early.

Just as he was about to continue analyzing the lineups for the upcoming matches, a loud crash came from the window of the room.

"Bang!"

The entire window was blasted open by a powerful surge of Soul Power, the wooden frame crashing against the wall, scattering debris everywhere. Immediately afterward, a deep, suppressed voice came from outside, instantly changing the expressions of everyone inside the room.

"Yu Xiaogang, get out here right now!"

Yu Xiaogang's body stiffened abruptly.

Flender and Zhao Wuji stood up almost simultaneously; they were familiar with the voice. Yu Xiaogang remained silent for a moment, then slowly rose, leaning on his cane, his expression clearly grim.

"It is His Excellency Haotian."

A dozen minutes later, in a secluded open space Spirit City, Tang Hao stood with his back to Yu Xiaogang. The night wind blew his tattered black robe, and although he hadn't released his Martial Soul, he still gave off an extremely heavy sense of oppression.

Yu Xiaogang stopped a few meters away, trying to keep his voice calm. "Your His Excellency Haotian, I wonder if you've come to see me today because of Little San's use of the Clear Sky Hammer?"

Tang Hao slowly turned around.

The next instant, his figure appeared in front of Yu Xiaogang.

Before Yu Xiaogang could even react, Tang Hao had already grabbed him by the neck and lifted him off the ground with one hand.

The sudden feeling of suffocation made Yu Xiaogang's face turn red instantly. He instinctively grabbed Tang Hao's wrist with both hands, his legs dangling in mid-air as he struggled. But no matter how hard he tried, that hand remained motionless.

Tang Hao grabbed him by the neck and lifted him up in front of him, his anger undisguised.

"Yu Xiaogang, do you really think I wouldn't dare to kill you?"

Yu Xiaogang opened his mouth with difficulty, but before he could explain, Tang Hao continued, "I warned you once when you made Little San's First Soul Ring a Ten-Year Soul Ring. You kept saying you would plan the most suitable cultivation path for him, and I didn't interfere further because he trusted you."

But what about now?

Tang Hao's hand tightened slightly, and his voice grew even colder.

"You clearly know what the greatest advantage of Twin Martial Souls is, yet you still made him add Soul Ring to the Clear Sky Hammer right now. Two Soul Ring of this age are taking up space on the Clear Sky Hammer. Do you know what that means? When Little San truly grows up, the high-age Soul Ring he could have absorbed will be wasted by you prematurely."

Just then, Flender and Zhao Wuji arrived outside the city.

The two men's expressions changed simultaneously upon seeing Yu Xiaogang suspended in mid-air. Flender quickly stepped forward and whispered, "Your His Excellency Haotian, please calm down. Xiaogang's actions were indeed problematic, but he was also worried about Little San's upcoming matches. If there's anything, we can discuss it calmly."

Tang Hao gave him a cold glance, but ultimately released his grip on the Soul Power.

Yu Xiaogang fell to the ground and coughed violently.

Before he could catch his breath, Tang Hao spoke again, "For Yu Yuanzhen's sake, I won't kill you today. However, you're spared the death penalty, but you won't escape punishment. You've already lost a leg because of your stupidity, and since you haven't learned your lesson, there's no need to keep the other leg either."

Yu Xiaogang suddenly raised his head, and the color drained from his face instantly.

"Your His Excellency Haotian, please don't—"

The next moment, heavy Soul Power fell directly down.

A piercing scream pierced the night and carried far.

Flender and Zhao Wuji looked grim, but dared not forcibly stop a Clear Sky Douluo in a rage at this moment. By the time Tang Hao withdrew his Soul Power, Yu Xiaogang had already fallen to the ground, his forehead covered in cold sweat, and his other leg had completely lost the ability to support his body.

Tang Hao didn't look at him again, only leaving behind the words, "Stay away from Little San's Martial Soul cultivation in the future," before turning and disappearing into the night.

In the end, Flender and Zhao Wuji could only help Yu Xiaogang up and take him back to Spirit City.

Tang Hao walked alone along the road outside the city for a while, but suddenly stopped when he passed a grove of trees.

The night was unusually quiet.

He didn't turn around, but simply raised his eyes to look ahead, a cold smile playing on his lips.

"Come out."

"After following us for so long, are you still planning to keep hiding?"

Tang Hao slowly turned around, and the Clear Sky Hammer had already appeared in his hand.

"Those scum from the Spirit Hall."

Two figures emerged silently from either side of the woods.

Yue Guan was still wearing his magnificent robes, while Gui Mei almost blended into the surrounding night. The two simultaneously released their Titled Douluo- level Soul Power, but Tang Hao's expression upon seeing them was nothing but disdain.

"I thought it was someone else."

Tang Hao gripped the Clear Sky Hammer with one hand, his tone filled with undisguised mockery.

"One chrysanthemum, one brat. You two think you can stop me? What, is the Spirit Hall out of people now?"

Yue Guan's expression darkened slightly, but Gui Mei showed no reaction.

Just as the atmosphere between the two sides was becoming increasingly tense, a soft laugh suddenly came from high above.

"Of course, it's not just the two of them."

Tang Hao suddenly looked up.

In the night sky, a small silver spaceship slowly descended, its surface lights standing out conspicuously in the darkness. The moment this creation, completely different from any Flying Soul Tool in the Douluo Continent, appeared, Tang Hao's eyes subtly changed.

Inside the spaceship, Aventurine stood by the transparent porthole, watching with great interest the figure below wielding the Clear Sky Hammer.

"Is he the powerful figure from the Clear Sky Sect you mentioned before?"

Lin Yuan stood to the side, his gaze also fixed on Tang Hao.

"That's right. Tang Hao, the Haotian Douluo, is a Title Douluo of over level ninety, and one of the most famous powerhouses of this generation in the Haotian Sect."

Aventurine slowly spun the golden chips in his hand, his smile showing a clear increase in interest.

"I've always wanted to see how the true top-tier Soul Master in this world fight. Since you say this is a good opportunity, then I look forward to it."

Lin Yuan smiled slightly and did not continue to explain.

Below the spaceship, Tang Hao had already sensed something was wrong.

A streak of icy blue light streaked across the distant horizon and landed steadily beside Yue Guan. Light Feather Douluo held a longbow in one hand, a relaxed smile even on his face.

Immediately afterwards, two even more powerful Soul Power descended simultaneously from the other side.

The Qian Jun Douluo and the Demon Subduing Douluo landed on the left and right respectively, and the three elders and Chrysanthemum Ghost completely sealed off all directions around Tang Hao.

The disdain on Tang Hao's face finally began to fade.

"The three honored guests."

His grip on the Clear Sky Hammer tightened noticeably.

But just then, an even more vast Soul Power slowly pressed down from the distant horizon.

A golden light pierced the night.

As the light faded, Qian Daoliu appeared in mid-air.

He neither released his Martial Soul nor revealed his Soul Ring; he simply looked down calmly at Tang Hao below.

"And there's this old man."

At this moment, Tang Hao's expression finally darkened completely.
