Elsewhere.

"Hey! Why did you send someone to inform His Holiness the Pope? I only told you about this because I trusted you!"

Yan looked at Hu Liena and Xie Yue, utterly bewildered. His brow was tightly furrowed, and he was somewhat angry.

But he hadn't expected Xie Yue and Hu Liena to be even angrier.

Hu Liena snapped, "If I hadn't sent someone to inform His Holiness the Pope, there's no telling what trouble you might have stirred up today!"

"You've really been bewitched by that opera singer out there!"

"I only didn't go with you because I was training. Yan, can't you focus on your training? Can't you do something worthwhile for once instead of fooling around all day?!"

With that, Hu Liena angrily shoved Yan.

Xie Yue looked at Yan, who was also holding back his anger. He walked over, patted Yan on the shoulder, and spoke earnestly:

"Yan, do you think the three of us can do whatever we want just because we're Spirit Hall's Golden Generation?"

"Do you think our status lets us reach the heavens with our hands and eyes throughout Spirit Hall?"

"Let me tell you, it doesn't. If we can't win the Soul Master Tournament, Spirit Hall will definitely shift its focus away from us."

"If you go and stir up this kind of trouble today and offend the entire Worship Hall, Nana and I won't be the only ones finished along with you. Even His Holiness the Pope's relationship with the entire Worship Hall will become strained."

Xie Yue's words brought Yan to his senses. He came to understand why his two companions were so worked up.

But Yan looked just as earnestly at Xie Yue. "Xie Yue, don't worry. Even if I can't defeat Second Worship this time, I'll prove to him how different I am now."

"I'm not the Yan I used to be."

Hu Liena took a deep breath. "You're a hopeless idiot."

Xie Yue's temper flared too. "Didn't you say you got some incredible ability from that opera singer? Fine! Show Nana and me!"

"Otherwise, don't even think about going to the Worship Hall!"

Yan frowned. "There's no point showing you. Even if I beat you, you still won't believe I can beat Second Worship, and you won't agree to let me challenge him. So stop wasting your time and move."

Yan had seen it clearly: his two friends regarded Second Worship as an insurmountable mountain.

No matter how he proved that he had grown stronger, his two friends wouldn't take the risk of letting him challenge Second Worship.

But the moment he finished speaking, Hu Liena lashed out with a kick, striking Yan squarely in the chest.

She shouted, "Could you ever beat my brother and me in training before? And now you actually look down on us!"

Yan quickly got back to his feet. "Don't stop me!"

Hu Liena flew into a rage. "That opera singer is a fraud! He's got you running around in circles! He only fools stupid people like you!"

"Don't you dare talk about Lord God like that!"

Yan shoved Hu Liena aside, knocking her to the ground. Seeing her startled gaze, he stepped back, somewhat apologetic.

"I'm sorry, Nana, but I have to challenge Second Worship today!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Yan sprinted toward the Worship Hall without a moment's hesitation.

Tonight, he had to prove not only himself, but also that Lord God wasn't a fraud.

Besides that, he also needed to obtain Arataki Itto's ascension materials.

Yan firmly believed that only by building Arataki Itto well could he truly stand among the powerhouses of Douluo Continent.

Douluo Continent would surely undergo a great upheaval. More and more people would obtain four-star and five-star characters, and when that time came, those who had built their characters well would be the true powerhouses.

So, as one of the first people to eat the crab, he had to seize the opportunity first.

Watching Yan's retreating figure quickly disappear without a trace, Hu Liena looked nervously at her brother. "What do we do?"

Xie Yue frowned. "What else can we do? Hurry after him and stop him!"

"Hey? You two? What are you doing?!"

Xie Yue and Hu Liena were just about to rush after him when they suddenly heard someone call out behind them.

They turned around and saw that it was Elder Ju and Elder Ling Yuan.

Yue Guan and Ling Yuan had stayed around the stage watching until nightfall, mainly to see which characters appeared.

But after watching for so long, they found that these Soul Masters dared to make at most thirty pulls, or perhaps they only had those few scattered levels of Soul Power.

And after watching everyone, the two elders found that this crowd's luck was truly terrible. Apart from someone who had lost the fifty-fifty and pulled a five-star, not a single person had pulled the featured five-star so far.

The sight had the two elders, who had also lost their fifty-fifties, thoroughly entertained.

There really was nothing more satisfying than watching someone else lose the fifty-fifty.

When Hu Liena saw the elders appear, it was as if she had seen her saviors.

"Thank goodness you're both here, Elders! Hurry and stop Yan! He's been fooled by that opera singer in the city, and now he's going to challenge Second Worship!"

"Opera singer?" Chrysanthemum Douluo asked in puzzlement. "Do you mean Lord God?"

Hu Liena said, "Huh?"

The corners of Xie Yue's mouth twitched. Hardly able to believe it, he asked, "Elder Ju... what did you just call that opera singer?"

"Lord God!"

Ling Yuan nodded very seriously as well. "That's right. Lord God isn't a fraud, and he isn't an opera singer either. He's a real god."

Xie Yue's eyes widened. "We're doomed, doomed, doomed, doomed!"

"Now even the elders have been fooled!"

"We're doomed!"

Xie Yue no longer wanted to ask the two elders for help. He turned straight around and went after Yan.

Chrysanthemum Douluo stopped Hu Liena and said with a smile, "You're saying that brat Yan has already gone?"

Hu Liena exclaimed, "Elder Ju, you know about this too?"

"I do. Hehe, Ling Yuan, let's hurry over and watch too. Oh, and call those two fellows Demon Bear and Ghost Leopard along. I'd rather like to see the looks of surprise on those two idiots' faces."

Ling Yuan also wore a strange smile. She stepped forward, put an arm around Hu Liena, and said, "Come on, Nana. Come with us."

Hu Liena struggled. "Elder, I'm in a hurry..."

"What's the rush? There's no hurry. Just watch the show later."

The Pope's Hall.

"What did you say? Yan went to the Worship Hall? He's going to publicly challenge Second Worship?"

Bibi Dong stared in astonishment at the guard before her.

The guard nodded. "Yes, Your Holiness. The Holy Maiden sent me to inform you!"

Bibi Dong flew into a rage. "Did a donkey kick Yan in the head? Why is he looking for trouble when there isn't any?!"

"Where is he now? Quick, lead the way!"

Taking her scepter, Bibi Dong hurried out of Spirit Hall after the guard.

Her relationship with the Worship Hall was already somewhat strained, and now Yan was adding fuel to the fire!

Bibi Dong was so angry that her head was spinning!

In Spirit City.

Shen Luo watched the Soul Masters leave one after another. A smug smile soon appeared on the face he had kept solemn.

He opened his panel and checked his haul for the day.

[Soul Power: 214] [Starglitter: 490] [Stardust: 32100]

I've struck it rich! I've made a fortune!

Two hundred and fourteen levels of Soul Power meant 2,140 pulls, equivalent to more than 300,000 Primogems in his original world!

He couldn't imagine how long he would have had to grind for more than 300,000 Primogems back in his original world.

Smiling, Shen Luo glanced toward Spirit Hall. He guessed that by now, Yan had probably used a Genshin Impact character to stir up a tremendous commotion inside Spirit Hall.

But that had nothing to do with him tonight. Tonight, he was free to pull to his heart's content!

"Finally, I can pull for Furina as much as I want!!"

Shen Luo murmured with a smile.

When Furina heard those words, she nervously covered her backside and silently backed away.

Shen Luo really is... so strange!

She swore she would hold her skirt tight tonight!

P.S. There'll be another chapter after midnight tonight.
