Douluo Continent: I had just reached my limit when the sky exposed me.

Chapter 154 The War of Gods is About to Begin!
Hearing Tianmu's question.

The Storm Dragon King slowly opened its cyan-gold dragon eyes.

His gaze seemed to pierce through space, meeting Gu Yuena's eyes for a moment in the distant Star Dou Great Forest.

Then, it uttered a deep, majestic, yet crystal-clear voice.

"I refuse."

Decisive and efficient, without any hesitation.

"Ugh……"

A silent, disappointed sigh echoed throughout the entire Douluo Continent.

Countless soul masters and soul beasts felt extremely sorry.

They missed the unparalleled opportunity to witness the clash of two supreme soul beasts.

"What a pity..."

"The Storm Dragon King actually refused outright!"

"Perhaps it felt it wasn't certain of victory? Or perhaps it didn't want to fight the Silver Dragon King to the death?"

Various speculations arose in people's minds.

Only a select few, the elite, can vaguely understand the deeper reasons behind this.

at this time!

"Buzz!"

On the sky, the whirlpool on the far right looks like three pebbles thrown into a calm pond.

Three distinct yet harmoniously blended halos of light rippled outwards!

Three halos of light slowly rotated and merged with each other.

Ultimately, it transformed into a piece of information engraved by the power of heaven and earth.

[Power Ranking, Number One]

Name: Lu Xiao

[Affiliation: Beidou Academy]

[Body Type: Human]

[Level: Level 105]

[Combat Power Assessment Summary: This individual cannot be measured by conventional Soul Master standards. They have already surpassed the level 100 threshold, entering the realm of gods, and their foundation is far deeper than that of ordinary deities. They possess multiple trump cards at different levels. Considering all their known and deduced unknown methods and accumulated strength, in the current Douluo Continent environment, their peak combat power has reached… the God King realm.]

[Rewards: Strength upgraded to Level 3 Deity, one artifact evolution opportunity, Martial Soul compatibility increased by 50%, and physique doubled (to be distributed).]

God-King Realm!
When those last three words clearly entered the eyes of all living beings.

The entire Douluo Continent seemed to have been put on pause.

What erupted next was an invisible mental storm that was more intense and frenzied than ever before!

If the previous reactions were merely shock and speculation stemming from the rankings...

At this moment, the sky used the clearest and most unambiguous language to explain Lu Xiao's "first place".

Multiple trump cards, peak combat power...

God-King Realm!
"God... God King?"

"Oh my God!"

"He really... reached that legendary level?"

Shock, horror, awe, fear, disbelief...

A torrent of emotions swept through every corner like a tsunami!
All previous doubts and wishful thinking.

It was utterly crushed at that moment!

Bibidon slumped onto the papal throne.

Her delicate body trembled uncontrollably, and her pretty face drained of all color.

She sought the position of the Rakshasa deity.

Knowing how difficult it is to become a first-level deity, the God-King is an even more distant legend!
And Lu Xiao... a human, was actually assessed by Tianmu as having the combat power of a God-King?
This is no longer a gap, but an insurmountable chasm!

It's the difference between an ant and the heavens!
Previously, there had been some tentative exploration and targeted intentions towards Beidou Academy.

Looking back now, it was simply courting disaster!

Confronting a being who may possess the power of a god-king, whose intentions are unclear.

Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Clan...

The feelings of all the high-ranking members of the human forces were extremely complicated at this moment.

On the one hand, the emergence of such a colossal pillar among humans seems to give them the confidence to confront the top power of soul beasts.

On the other hand, this giant pillar was too mysterious and too powerful, completely beyond their comprehension and control.

No one can predict where the future global order will lead.

The core area of ​​the Star Dou Great Forest was deathly silent.

Gu Yuena's purple eyes were fixed on the three words "God King Realm".

For the first time, a clear emotional fluctuation appeared on her stunningly beautiful face.

It was a complex expression that mixed shock, understanding, resentment, and deep fear.

"Multiple trump cards, combat power of a God-King Realm!"

She repeated it in a low voice, each word carrying immense weight.

"I see. My feeling last time was right. The way he used his power was indeed not part of the conventional system of this world."

Di Tian's heavily injured body trembled slightly, his dragon eyes filled with despair and helplessness.

The Lord is infinitely close to the God-King, which is the limit of its understanding.

Lu Xiao, on the other hand, directly possessed the combat power of a God-King!

How can we compete with that?

The ferocious beasts, including Xiong Jun and Wan Yao Wang, were terrified and dared not even breathe loudly.

The slight confidence that had previously arisen due to the ranking of the Silver Dragon King.

Everything vanished in an instant. The vast sound of the heavens did not give any living beings much time to breathe or process the shock.

[Gu Yuena! Do you wish to apply to open the 'Endless Arena' and challenge Lu Xiao, the number one player?]

Challenge number one!

Challenge Lu Xiao, who is assessed as having the peak combat power of "God King" and is mysterious and unpredictable!

This question was like throwing ice water into a pot of boiling oil.

It instantly ignited the emotions that had been suppressed to the extreme by all the spectators!
Dead!

After the extreme silence comes a volcanic eruption of fervor and anticipation!

"A challenge has been issued! Is the Silver Dragon King going to challenge Lu Xiao?"

"God King versus God King! This is the true ultimate battle!"

"My God! I can't believe I'm witnessing a battle of this caliber in my lifetime?"

"..."

Everyone understood that this would be an unprecedented and perhaps never-to-be-repeated showdown!

The two were assessed by the Heavenly Curtain as having combat power of "God King level" and "infinitely close to God King level".

Clash head-on on the endless arena!
Its intensity, its clash with and interpretation of the rules, is probably something even the divine realm rarely witnesses!
Spirit Hall, Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, Seagod Island...

All human forces held their breath, their hearts pounding.

On one hand, deep down they secretly hoped that Lu Xiao would win, as it concerned the dignity and future of human soul masters.

On the other hand, they felt an instinctive fear and trembling at this battle that was beyond their comprehension.

The Star Dou Great Forest, home to all the soul beasts...
Even the severely injured Di Tian looked nervously at their king.

This battle is not just about rankings and rewards.

It is also about whether the Soul Beast race can turn the tide in terms of top-tier combat power.

It concerns the future destiny of the entire clan!
……

Inside the Beidou Academy.

The excitement and pride on the faces of Sikong Zhen, Sun Wukong, and Li Bai were instantly replaced by solemnity.

They were well aware of the dean's power!
But the opponent is, after all, the Silver Dragon King, who controls the seven elements and wields a super artifact.

It is also considered an ancient being with terrifying power!
Lu Xiao's eyebrows twitched almost imperceptibly.

“Challenge me, huh… Gu Yuena.”

Lu Xiao wasn't too surprised; instead, a sense of understanding arose within him.

Given Gu Yuena's personality and sense of responsibility towards the soul beast clan.

This is a battle she can almost never avoid.

"Perfect, let me see just how far you can wield the elemental authority of the Dragon God now that you've recovered from your injuries and are wielding the Silver Dragon Spear."

A barely perceptible glint of anticipation flashed in Lu Xiao's eyes.

Fighting against an opponent like Gu Yuena!
For him, it was also a rare experience and a test.

Star Forest.

All hesitation and deliberation vanished from Gu Yuena's stunningly beautiful face in an instant.

In his purple eyes, only a cold flame burning with fighting spirit remained.

She raised her hand slowly.

Seven colors of light flowed around her slender fingertips.

"challenge."

A clear and firm voice responded distinctly to the sky through spiritual thought.

There were no grand pronouncements, only the simplest decisions.

Almost the instant her words fell!
"Boom boom boom!"

Above the sky, an unprecedented burst of dazzling golden light erupted, seemingly capable of tearing the heavens apart!
Two enormous pillars of light, more magnificent and refined than ever before, seemingly composed of pure rule runes.

A beam of light precisely struck Lu Xiao in the square of Beidou Academy.

A figure traversing space, enveloping the core area of ​​the Star Dou Great Forest—Gu Yuena!

This time, even the heavens themselves seemed to be taking the teleportation very seriously.

The space of the endless arena violently twisted, expanded, and reinforced in the golden light!
The spectators' consciousness was drawn into a vaster, more stable, and strange space with countless mysterious runes flowing at its boundaries.

The spatial intensity here!
An arena far surpassing any previous battle.

It seems to be specially designed to withstand the collision of god-king level power!
The golden light gradually faded away.

In the center of the endless arena, two figures faced each other from afar.

On the left, Lu Xiao, still dressed in simple white, stood with his hands behind his back.

There was no powerful divine energy fluctuation or terrifying aura emanating from him; he was as calm as a bottomless ancient well.

Yet it naturally became the "center" of this space.

On the right, Gu Yuena's silver hair cascaded down like a waterfall!
He held a long spear that was entirely silver-white, with an elegant and luxurious design, and whose tip was adorned with countless elements that came and went.

The ultimate weapon, the Silver Dragon Spear!

Around her, the radiance of the seven basic elements flickered and flowed like breath, forming a perfectly harmonious realm.

It resonated subtly with the entire arena space!

The vast elemental pressure was like a sleeping ocean, calm on the surface but containing the power to destroy the world.

Two of the strongest in the world!
On this ultimate arena, constructed by the rules of the heavens and capable of withstanding a battle between god-kings.

The upcoming battle will determine who holds the top spot on the power rankings and may profoundly impact the future landscape of the continent...

The final battle!
Throughout the entire Douluo Continent, all living beings!
Whether human or spirit beast.

Whether you're a strong person or a mortal!

At this moment, everyone focused all their attention and gaze on the dazzling golden arena!

The war between the gods is about to begin!
