Shen Luo Unleashed a Normal Attack, Nailing Qian Daoliu to the Divine Statue

"You!!"

Golden Crocodile clenched his fists and was about to lash out when a voice came from behind him. "Second Brother."

The Second Worship turned around and saw that it was Qian Daoliu. He forced down his anger and stepped back.

Qian Daoliu said quietly, "You couldn't even beat Yan. You definitely can't beat him."

"Big Brother..."

Golden Crocodile was immediately at a loss for words, but he knew Qian Daoliu was telling the truth.

Qian Daoliu patted him on the shoulder and smiled. "Don't worry. Someone of his status cares even more about face than we do. I have a way to take him down a peg."

Hearing this, Bibi Dong raised an elegant eyebrow, curious about how Qian Daoliu planned to take the man down a peg.

Qian Daoliu walked slowly forward with a kindly smile on his face.

The people gazed at the legendary Peerless Douluo. Even though they lived in Spirit City, this was the first time they had seen Qian Daoliu's true face.

They could not help feeling a little awed.

"Divine Lord, please don't be angry. Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Qian Daoliu, and I am the Great Enshrined of Spirit Hall. My Soul Power is at level 99, the highest in the world today."

"I know you are powerful and possess unusual abilities, but it is still too hasty to call yourself a god. I must remain skeptical."

Shen Luo smiled as well. "I understand what you mean. Go on, how do you want me to prove it?"

At that moment, all the people turned their eyes to Qian Daoliu.

A sharp light flashed in Qian Daoliu's eyes. "I do like talking to clever people. Naturally, you should prove it with strength."

"You were able to repel a Titled Douluo with ease, and that certainly shows you are powerful. But it doesn't prove much, because I can also repel a Titled Douluo with ease."

He smiled again and continued, "I want you to defeat me with the same move. Only that can prove your one-in-ten-thousand strength and befit the status of a god."

He really is an old fox!

Hearing Qian Daoliu's words, Bibi Dong and Shen Luo thought this to themselves almost simultaneously.

Everyone knew that Shen Luo was powerful. But if the same attack could defeat a Titled Douluo but not a Peerless Douluo, what kind of strength was that?

Since you call yourself a god, you should act like one!

The loss of his divine power was no excuse. A god should be able to defeat a Peerless Douluo with an ordinary attack. Only then could he be called a god and convince people.

Bibi Dong narrowed her beautiful eyes. Qian Daoliu really was clever.

If Shen Luo couldn't do it, they could essentially determine the upper limit of his strength.

Then Spirit Hall could apply pressure without worry and force Shen Luo to set the price of one hundred card draws at one level of Soul Power!

Qian Daoliu said in a deep voice, "Yue Guan, you should have seen clearly what move the Divine Lord used to defeat Ghost Douluo yesterday, shouldn't you? Watch carefully in a moment. Don't let the Divine Lord secretly switch to another skill."

Yue Guan lowered his head. "...I remember that the Divine Lord used a five-star character's normal attack to defeat Old Ghost."

Qian Daoliu gave a mocking smile. "Good. I look forward to seeing the Divine Lord defeat me with the same normal attack."

Shen Luo was expressionless.

Fortunately, he had already anticipated yesterday that Spirit Hall would test his strength.

That was why he had raised all of Furina's attributes to their peak, except for her Artifact functions.

Wasn't that coming in handy today?

Although today's normal attack was identical to yesterday's, the damage would be vastly different...

Shen Luo sneered inwardly.

Qian Daoliu was smiling too. He had asked beforehand about Ghost Douluo's condition after yesterday's attack. Ghost Douluo had merely been sent flying and hadn't even been injured.

How could strength of that level possibly hurt a Peerless Douluo like him?

"Quick, quick, quick, keep up!"

Yan led Xie Yue and Hu Liena quickly through the crowd of onlookers, choosing a spot with a good view.

"That person is the god? He's quite handsome."

Hu Liena watched curiously.

Yan saw the confrontation ahead and hurriedly asked someone beside him, "Brother, what's happening?"

"The Great Enshrined is going to fight the Divine Lord one-on-one! Sigh, even a fool can see the Great Enshrined is deliberately finding fault. The Divine Lord clearly wasn't fighting Ghost Douluo seriously yesterday."

Even the onlookers were now feeling that Shen Luo was being treated unfairly.

Qian Daoliu said, "May we begin, Divine Lord?"

Shen Luo replied, "Anytime."

Qian Daoliu smiled. "I'll release my Martial Soul and use a Soul Skill against you as well. You don't mind, do you? After all, you are a god."

Shen Luo remained expressionless. "As you please."

"Isn't he deliberately making things difficult for the Divine Lord?!"

"And he has to defeat you to prove he's a god?! I believe he's a god!"

The onlookers voiced their protests. They were all among those who had benefited from Shen Luo's generosity.

Qian Daoliu released his Martial Soul, and sacred angelic radiance illuminated the scene. Behind him, the enormous phantom of a Six-Winged Angel slowly took shape, as though an Angel True Body had descended.

The crowd backed away, crying out in surprise.

"He's even using his Martial Soul Avatar?! How shameless can he be?!"

"Ghost Douluo didn't even use his avatar yesterday!"

"The Divine Lord already said he'd lost his divine power. How could one normal attack possibly defeat your level 99 Martial Soul Avatar and Soul Skill?"

"How shameless!"

Curses rang out across the scene.

But more people chose to watch quietly. If Shen Luo couldn't win, his claim to be a god would indeed hold little weight with them.

There was no helping it. That was the way public opinion was being steered.

"Fourth Soul Skill, Eye of the Angel!"

Qian Daoliu's heavy voice echoed in everyone's ears. Above him, a golden vertical eye slowly opened, and a golden holy sword shot out of it!

The moment the terrifying power of a Peerless Douluo was unleashed, the surging energy swept the crowd back.

Shen Luo raised a hand. Light and shadow swirled in midair as a blue sword of water took shape and shot toward Qian Daoliu in turn.

His move looked even plainer than it had yesterday.

There was no helping it. That was absolute confidence.

The golden sword and the blue sword met in midair.

"Bang!"

Their tips touched, and a blast of energy first surged outward in every direction. Then the golden sword shattered inch by inch!

Qian Daoliu was horrified. Before he had time to react, the blue water sword reached him and pierced straight through his chest!

"Bang!"

Another blast of energy erupted, sending Qian Daoliu flying like a shooting star. He was nailed fast to the Six-Winged Angel divine statue high above the Spirit Hall building.

"Rumble-"

The statue was struck, and the wings on either side broke off and crashed heavily to the ground, kicking up great clouds of dust.

Everyone stared dumbfounded. Even the army of card drawers who had just been protesting on Shen Luo's behalf fell silent.

It seemed they didn't need to worry about the Divine Lord's strength...

Bibi Dong immediately grabbed Yue Guan and demanded, "Did he use that same skill against Ghost Douluo yesterday?!"

Yue Guang cried in alarm, "That's right! Not even a splash of water was different!"
