Fire-attribute Titled Douluo were more than just few and far between on the continent. Ling Yuan Douluo had never even heard of another one besides herself.

That made her extremely curious.

Before long, she arrived outside Spirit Hall. As soon as she reached the street, she saw quite a few passersby running in the same direction.

"Hurry, hurry! I heard a god really appeared!"

"Did you see that thing that suddenly shot into the sky just now? It was terrifying!"

"Of course I saw it!"

"Hurry, hurry! It's the first time a god has descended in Spirit City!"

Ling Yuan Douluo stood rooted to the spot, dumbfounded by what she heard.

Since when had the people of Spirit City become so ignorant and foolish?

Although she had been cultivating and didn't know what had happened, an actor on a stage was best at nothing if not acting.

All he had to do was pretend to be a god and throw in a little illusion magic, and people actually believed him?

What Ling Yuan Douluo found hardest to stomach was that those two, Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo, had actually believed him too!

She had thought the two had gone to teach the actor a lesson, but who would have thought they'd been completely taken in by his acting?

"Am I the only one here with any sense?!"

Watching the people of Spirit City run off excitedly to see the show, Ling Yuan Douluo couldn't help grumbling.

She followed behind the passersby, but after only a few steps, she saw a packed crowd filling the end of the street. Straight ahead stood an enormous, conspicuous red curtain.

No wonder the stage had attracted so much attention lately. It really had been built on a grand scale.

A single glance was enough for Ling Yuan Douluo to spot Ghost Douluo and Chrysanthemum Douluo at the front of the crowd.

There were also a young man and a young woman standing on the stage, looking down at everyone.

"Hmph, as expected of actors. They do look good."

Ling Yuan Douluo snorted coldly and immediately called out to the wall of people blocking her way, "Spirit Hall business! All of you, make way!"

At the sound of that cold, commanding voice, and with the scorching presence infused with Soul Power that Ling Yuan Douluo deliberately released, the crowd ahead instantly scattered, leaving a path through the middle.

As a result, quite a few people were shoved to the ground, while others pushed and jostled their way backward. Seen from above, there was nothing but a sea of bobbing heads.

To be honest, it was the first time Ling Yuan Douluo had seen Spirit City so lively.

She even doubted the crowd would have turned out in such force if Bibi Dong herself had appeared.

Just what kind of bewitching potion had that brat on the stage fed these people?

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. Ling Yuan Douluo walked straight toward Ghost Douluo and Chrysanthemum Douluo and called sharply, "What are you two doing? His Holiness the Pope is very angry, you know!"

Ghost Douluo had just finished experiencing his good daughter Klee's Elemental Burst and was about to try Sucrose's and Noelle's skills, only for Ling Yuan Douluo's shout to interrupt his casting.

Ling Yuan Douluo frowned. "Yan, you're here too? Why aren't you training instead of coming here to meddle?"

Chrysanthemum Douluo couldn't help asking, "Elder Ling Yuan, what did you come here for?"

"Why, to expose that man's true face!"

She pointed at Shen Luo on the stage, her fists clenching with a crackle, her eyes seeming to blaze with fire.

Shen Luo merely smiled at this, unafraid. As long as he was on this stage, he was invincible.

Besides, he believed there would be no need for him to intervene.

Sure enough, just as Shen Luo had imagined, Ghost Douluo and Yan's eyes were already glowing green as they looked at Ling Yuan Douluo...

Like wolves eyeing a plump little lamb.

They had been itching to return to Spirit Hall and farm experience from Elder Ling Yuan, and now Elder Ling Yuan had delivered herself right to their door!

Yan immediately said to Ghost Douluo with an eager look, "Ghost Elder, I'm begging you, can you take me along to fight Elder Ling Yuan this time?"

Ling Yuan Douluo froze when she heard that.

Her eyes widened. "What did you say? Yan, are you tired of living?!"

She walked toward Yan, only for Ghost Douluo to suddenly step in front of him.

"Yan, let me try first. Once we get back to Spirit Hall, I'll take you along to fight Elder Ling Yuan."

Ghost Douluo finished speaking with a malicious smile on his face.

Ling Yuan Douluo was utterly bewildered. "Why do you want to fight me? Ghost Douluo, have you lost your mind?"

Ghost Douluo said, "To farm experience."

"What experience? Has that guy on the stage brainwashed you already? Fine, all right, I'll beat some sense into you today!"

Elder Ling Yuan was seething. She had thought Ghost Douluo merely believed the other party was a god, but she hadn't expected him to want to fight her too.

In Spirit Hall, despite Ghost Douluo's formidable strength, the attributes of their Martial Souls meant he had always been suppressed by her fire attribute.

So while Ling Yuan Douluo wasn't necessarily confident of defeating Yue Guan, she would never lose to Ghost Douluo!

Seeing that the two were about to duel, Chrysanthemum Douluo watched with great interest. He planned to see how the battle went before deciding whether to pull.

Now he could finally witness the true strength of these four- and five-star characters.

Ling Yuan Douluo said, "Show me your Martial Soul!"

The corners of Ghost Douluo's mouth curled up, but what appeared around him was not his ghost Martial Soul. Instead, it was the phantom of a cute-looking boy with short hair.

[Four-star - Xingqiu]

Xingqiu held the Cool Steel and even struck a pose as though saying, "Please enlighten me."

At the sight, the fire of Ling Yuan Douluo's Martial Soul nearly went out...

She asked in surprise, "Where's your Martial Soul?"

Ghost Douluo said, "This is it. It's a new Martial Soul I got from the god in exchange for Soul Power."

Hearing this, Ling Yuan Douluo looked at Shen Luo, as if she had suddenly understood why this swindler was pretending to be a god...

He wanted to seize Soul Power!

Ling Yuan Douluo gritted her teeth. "You're beyond foolish! You've been swindled and you're still helping him count the money!"

Furious, she sent nine Soul Rings rising around her, and boiling flames gathered behind her into the phantom of a spirit kite wreathed in fire.

But at that moment, Ghost Douluo suddenly switched characters, becoming Sucrose in an instant.

[Sucrose - Elemental Burst]

He hurled an enormous wind field forward!

Cyan wind condensed in the air into a giant butterfly with outspread wings. As the butterfly beat its wings, a powerful wind swept outward from the center in every direction.

"What the hell is that..."

In the instant Ling Yuan Douluo was stunned, the flames around her were suddenly blown out, while the entire cyan butterfly turned orange-red in a flash!

The powerful wind became a scorching wind!

Ling Yuan Douluo cried out in alarm as she was pulled into the center of the wind field, her body bobbing up and down in the current. Fortunately, the flames were hers to begin with, so she was unaffected by the heat.

But everyone present fled into the distance as if mad, scrambling on hands and knees for fear of being sucked into the orange-red wind field.

In the instant the wind field died down, Ling Yuan released her Martial Soul again, but Ghost Douluo had already reached her.

And now, the short-haired boy from before had appeared around Ghost Douluo.

[Xingqiu - Elemental Skill]

Water splashed as Ghost Douluo kicked upward, his foot sending a spray of blue-white water flying. Caught completely off guard, Ling Yuan Douluo was kicked several meters away.

Steam rose from Ling Yuan as she lay on the ground, her fair skin scalded red.

Shen Luo suddenly spoke. "Vaporize Reaction."
