Douluo Continent: The Golden List is Revealed, and the Holy Spirit Puni Subdues Evil Spirits

Chapter 10 Tang San is second, but who is the first?

Half of it was cheers, and the other half was desolation.

The two extreme atmospheres created a stark contrast between the early and later periods.

Worship Hall.

The six titled Douluo let out a heavy sigh in unison, their voices filled with an undisguised despair.

The situation they feared most has finally come to pass.

They prayed that their young master, Qian Renxue, would rank higher than Tang San.

But the clear "third" on the list shattered everyone's hopes.

"It's over, there's really no hope left!"

"Young Master has lost... It seems our Spirit Hall is doomed..."

Golden Crocodile Douluo stood at the very front, his eyes, which had seen countless vicissitudes of life, were almost overflowing with disappointment.

He clenched his fists so tightly his knuckles turned white, but he couldn't utter a single word in rebuttal.

-

At the same time, the Papal Palace.

Bibi Dong lightly tapped the armrest of the gilded chair with her fingertips, a hint of surprise flashing across her delicate face.

She knew Qian Renxue's trump card all too well.

That was the favor of the first-level deity, the Angel God, and the hope for the Spirit Hall's ten thousand-year legacy.

To surpass Qian Renxue, one must at least be a deity of the same level, or even higher.

However, the fact that Tang San could surpass Qian Renxue means that Tang San has at least the recognition of a first-level god.

"It seems that Tang San is my real biggest threat."

Bibi Dong's voice was as cold as ice, but her gaze was fixed on the air, as if searching for something.

"But there's someone on the Golden List who's above Tang San... Who is that?"

She raised her hand and touched her delicate, angelica-like chin, her brows furrowing slightly.

To be able to surpass Tang San, who has the favor of a god, this person must have also gained the recognition of at least a first-level god.

Could it be a trump card hidden by the Heavenly Dou Empire?
If that's the case, the Spirit Hall's future path will be very difficult.

She sighed softly, a hint of confusion flashing in her eyes.

"Things are getting more and more confusing."

-

The atmosphere inside the offering hall grew even heavier the moment Qian Renxue saw the rankings.

The once radiant face of this proud inheritor of the Angelic Martial Soul had faded, leaving only an overwhelming sense of disappointment.

She turned around and looked at Qian Daoliu beside her, her voice choked with emotion.

"Grandpa, I lost... I have let you down after so many years of nurturing, and I have also let down the Spirit Hall's expectations."

Qian Daoliu looked at his granddaughter's reddened eyes. Although he felt pain in his heart, he did not blame her at all.

He reached out and gently patted Qian Renxue's shoulder, his voice gentle yet firm.

"Silly girl, what's the big deal?"

"Tang San may be more talented than you, but talent doesn't mean everything, and it certainly doesn't mean you'll always lose to him."

"But the Golden List ranks me below Tang San, what other way can I possibly win?"

Qian Renxue raised her head, her eyes filled with confusion, her former confidence completely gone.

Qian Daoliu smiled slightly, patiently raised his hand and touched her hair, the gesture full of affection.

"This is not like the self-reliant Xiaoxue I know."

Seeing that Qian Renxue was still looking down, he continued.

"If you only look at the finish line, you may indeed be behind Tang San, but if you can reach the finish line before him and become a true Angel God!"

"But he's still at the Soul Master stage. Back then, weren't you stronger than him?"

"Could I even kill him myself?"

These words were like a ray of light, instantly illuminating Qian Renxue's gloomy heart.

A flame reignited in her eyes, and hope shone in her once dim gaze.

Seeing her like this, Qian Daoliu felt slightly relieved, but a few worries also arose in his heart.

He knew he didn't have much time left.

He continued speaking, his tone carrying a hint of solemnity.

"Xiaoxue, some things, until the very last moment, no one knows how they will end."

"Don't give up too early. The future of the Spirit Hall still needs you to shoulder it."

Qian Renxue nodded vigorously!
"Grandpa, I understand!"

"I will no longer be discouraged. I will become a god as soon as possible and will not let you and the Spirit Hall down!"

Qian Daoliu smiled with satisfaction as he watched his granddaughter regain her fighting spirit.

His gaze drifted unconsciously into the distance, and he thought to himself.

He might not be able to stay with Xiaoxue for much longer.

He only hoped that after he left, Xiaoxue could become a truly independent and composed Soul Master, someone who would remain calm and collected in the face of adversity, and steadily shoulder the future of the Spirit Hall.

If Lin Tian were still here, that would be great.

With him by Xiaoxue's side, he can both help her and remind her of things.

That way, he can leave with more peace of mind.

Just then, the golden list in mid-air suddenly lit up with golden light, the text on it began to change, and new information slowly emerged.

Tang San possesses seven soul bones! One external soul bone, one ten-thousand-year soul bone, and five one-hundred-thousand-year soul bones!

[Innate full soul power, twin martial souls: Blue Silver Emperor and Clear Sky Hammer!]

[Gaining the favor of the first-level deities, the Sea God and the Asura God King]

[Soul Ring Configuration: Six Black and Three Red!]

[Affiliation: Heaven Dou Empire!]

[Ranked second overall!]

Qian Renxue and Qian Daoliu's gazes instantly locked onto those words.

This time, Qian Renxue's eyes no longer held the fear she had before; instead, they were filled with intense fighting spirit.

She clenched her delicate fists, her knuckles tightening slightly, and the murderous intent in her eyes almost overflowed.

"No wonder Tang San is ranked ahead of me; it turns out he has the favor of two gods, and even a God King!"

She took a deep breath, her tone resolute.

"But if I can become a god first, Tang San... you'd better prepare to face death!"

After saying that, she subconsciously looked at Qian Daoliu, only to find a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes.

she asked confused.

"Grandpa, what are you thinking about?"

Qian Daoliu came to his senses and slowly spoke, his voice carrying a hint of solemnity.

"If Tang San is second, then who is first?"

These words also stirred up doubts in Qian Renxue's mind.

Yes, Tang San is already this strong, who can surpass him and take first place?

A figure involuntarily surfaced in her mind!
Brother Lin Tian.

But as soon as the thought popped into her head, she dismissed it!

Impossible! First of all, Brother Lin Tian has already passed away!

Speaking of the favor shown by the Asura God King, Brother Lin Tian has never received such a thing before!
Although Brother Lin Tian's talent is boundless, almost no one can match him at the Soul Master stage!
However, this ranking has taken the divine factor into account, so it is absolutely impossible for Brother Lin Tian to be on the list!

Who exactly is it?!
Could there be a peerless master hidden on this continent whom they have never known?

She shook her head, her tone puzzled.

"Grandpa, I can't figure it out either."

Qian Daoliu didn't say anything more, but simply turned his gaze back to the list of successful candidates.

-

Inside the Papal Palace.

When Bibi Dong saw Tang San's information on the Golden List, she suddenly stood up from her seat, her face full of shock.

How could someone who enjoys the favor of both a first-level deity and a god-king only rank second?

How can this be?

She even temporarily suppressed her fear of Tang San, and all her attention was drawn to the top spot on the list.

Who exactly is this top-ranked person who can make Tang San rank second?

Just how strong are his trump cards?
Hu Liena, standing to the side, also frowned, her voice full of doubt.

"I've seen almost all the geniuses of this generation!"

"Neither the Spirit Hall nor the Heaven Dou Empire has ever heard of anyone being this strong... Who could it be?"

The same applies to the six great offerings!

They were both nervous and fearful about this unknown first time.

After all, based on their understanding of the Spirit Hall.

This top spot doesn't belong to the Spirit Hall!

Therefore... it can only be from the Heaven Dou Empire!
If that's the case, the situation for the Spirit Hall will truly be dire to the core.

Golden Crocodile Douluo gazed at the list of successful candidates and murmured a sigh of admiration.

"Oh my god, someone please save the Spirit Hall!"

-

Heavenly Dou Empire!

"Tang San actually came in second???"

The same question arose in the minds of all the Soul Masters in the empire.
