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

Chapter 16 Generous Rewards

Inside the Papal Palace.

Bibidon sat high on the papal throne.

When she saw the names "Six-Winged Angel" and "Qian Renxue", her jade-like fingers holding the scepter suddenly tightened, and her knuckles turned white.

Despite her complex feelings towards her daughter Qian Renxue, which even contained hatred, deep down she harbored these feelings.

But at this moment, an indescribable sense of suffocation and a deeper sense of apprehension welled up inside him.

"Even the six-winged angels can only be ranked eleventh."

Bibi Dong narrowed her phoenix eyes, her gaze sharp and cold. "What exactly does this list signify?"

This ranking made her even more convinced that the mysterious Beidou Academy must have a great connection with the top of the list!
"We must find out the truth about Beidou Academy as soon as possible!"

This thought became incredibly urgent in her mind.

……

Qibao Glazed Sect.

Ning Fengzhi, Chen Xin, and Gu Rong looked at each other, all seeing horror in each other's eyes.

"The eleventh six-winged angel!"

Gu Rong smacked his lips, feeling his throat go dry. "Old Chen, Feng Zhi, this... this is too outrageous! That's a god-level martial soul!"

Chen Xin nodded solemnly: "It is indeed unbelievable. It seems that we underestimated the value of this list and the hidden potential of this continent."

Ning Fengzhi took a deep breath, trying to calm the turmoil in his heart, and said in a deep voice.

"Uncle Jian, Uncle Gu, it seems that the Beidou Academy, where Rongrong studies, is even more terrifying than we imagined. Even a six-winged angel couldn't make it into the top ten, so what about the top ten?"

"I even suspect that most of them might be related to the Beidou Academy!"

"After all, we know more or less about the top powers known on the mainland, but the Beidou Academy seems to have appeared out of thin air and is unfathomable."

This guess sent a chill down the spines of all three.

If that's the case, then the power of Beidou Academy has probably reached a point where it can overturn the existing order of the mainland!
……

In a forest, Qian Renxue had long since left the Heavenly Dou Empire to prevent her identity from being exposed.

A golden beam of light pierced through the void and precisely enveloped Qian Renxue.

Her soul power, which had already reached the Soul Emperor level, surged again, breaking through five levels in a row.

The five spirit rings surrounding him shone brightly, their colors rapidly changing.

Ultimately, it turned into an astonishing configuration of three purples and two blacks!
At the same time, two illusory skeletons, radiating soft golden light and imbued with a sacred aura, floated in front of her.

It was those two divinely bestowed soul bones.

As the light faded, Qian Renxue felt the surging power within her, but her beautiful face showed little joy.

Instead, it carried a hint of solemnity and understanding.

"Little Lord!"

Serpent Spear Douluo and Porcupine Douluo rushed forward, their faces showing joy, but even more so confusion and worry.

"Your strength has greatly improved, congratulations! But what about this ranking?"

Qian Renxue raised her hand and gently touched the two divinely bestowed soul bones.

Feeling the pure and attribute-free powerful energy contained within, a slight stirring occurred in my heart.

"It's truly amazing. It can perfectly match any martial soul and generate the most suitable soul bone skill. Is this the meaning of 'divine gift'?"

"Unfortunately, the age limit is too low, which does not meet my goal of obtaining the Angelic Divine Armor."

She put away the soul bone, looked at her two loyal subordinates, and calmly said, "Elders, there's no need to be surprised. I had expected this outcome."

"The criteria for judging the Heavenly Dao Ranking are far more complex than we imagine. Although the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul is powerful, it may indeed be inferior to those ranked higher in some aspects."

She paused, her gaze falling on the still-glorious golden list outside the window, a barely perceptible glint of fighting spirit burning in her eyes. "What I'm more interested in now is, which martial spirits are in the top ten?"

"Besides the known Sea God Martial Soul, what other surprises will the rest bring?"

Seeing their young master so calm, the Serpent Spear Douluo and the Porcupine Douluo felt their unease subside.

But at the same time, I also felt a great curiosity and a sense of awe towards the unknown top ten.

……

The vast and boundless depths of the ocean.

An island shrouded in a huge, transparent light shield resembles a fairyland.

It was Poseidon Island.

Before the solemn Temple of Poseidon, the seven guardians of the sacred pillars gathered, led by Poseidon.

When they saw that the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul was ranked eleventh, these powerful Title Douluos breathed a sigh of relief.

What followed was an even deeper shock.

"Great Elder, congratulations! The Six-Winged Angel is ranked eleventh, which means your Sea God Martial Soul will definitely be among the top ten!"

Seahorse Douluo said excitedly.

The other guardians also showed expressions of joy.

The relationship between Seagod Island and the Spirit Hall is delicate. It is naturally a pleasant thing to see the other party's inherited spirit being suppressed.

However, there was no sign of relief on Poseidon's stunningly beautiful face.

Her deep blue eyes were filled with solemnity.

She gently shook her head, her voice ethereal yet tinged with worry: "Everyone, don't be too happy yet. The Six-Winged Angel is a god-level martial soul with boundless power. Even it can only rank eleventh. What does this mean?"

She looked around at everyone and said slowly, "This means that the martial souls ranked at the top probably all possess the potential or characteristics that surpass those of ordinary god-level martial souls."

"While the Sea God Martial Soul I inherited is powerful, whether it can enter the top five, or even the top three, is still unknown."

"The waters of this continent are too deep. Perhaps there are some forbidden beings that even the Sea God has not noticed, which have already quietly awakened or descended."

Poseidon's words were like a bucket of cold water, extinguishing the joy that had just risen among the crowd.

Yes, even god-level martial souls can't make it into the top ten.

How incredibly prestigious must the top ten be?
They originally thought that the Sea God Martial Soul would at least secure a place in the top three, but now it seems that this idea may have been too optimistic.

An invisible pressure loomed over everyone's hearts.

……

Just as various forces on the mainland were experiencing mixed feelings about the announcement of the eleventh place, with both anticipation and fear for the top ten.

The golden light in the sky fluctuated violently once again.

The new rankings are finally about to be revealed!
[Martial Soul Ranking, 10th Place: Sea God]

[Owner: Poseidon Island]

[Rating: God-level Martial Soul, Ruler of the Ocean, wielding the vast power of the ocean, virtually invincible in the sea.]

[Rewards: Soul Power condensed by one time, a 50,000-year-old divinely bestowed soul bone, Divine Skill: Boundless Ocean, Semi-divine Artifact: Ocean Flute.]

"Tenth place! It's the Sea God Martial Soul!"

"Poseidon Island's High Priestess Poseidon, which faction owns Poseidon Island?"

"Reward... Divine Skill! Semi-Divine Artifact!"

The entire Douluo Continent was in an uproar!
If the six-winged angel ranking eleventh is shocking, then the Sea God Martial Soul ranking tenth is even more so.

This sent a chill down everyone's spine and instilled a sense of insignificance in the face of the unknown!
Are the previous nine martial souls all beings that transcend the gods?
