Douluo Continent: Building the Great Wall, Exposed by the Golden List

Chapter 10 The Spirit Hall and the Clear Sky Sect

Shao Siyuan looked at Su Han with a pained expression, blinking her light pink eyes.

"No, I won't ask anymore."

Su Han's feigned stern expression softened.

Outside of the Great Wall Academy, the appearance of the Heavenly Dao Golden List brought more than just shock to the entire Douluo Continent; all forces also began to act frantically.

Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.

Inside the Crown Prince's Eastern Palace of the Heavenly Dou Empire.

"Just what is the background of this Great Wall Academy?"

Qian Renxue removed Xue Qinghe's dough and frowned her beautiful eyebrows.

She had no idea how this prestigious list would affect her plans.

She realized something was wrong when neither the Porcupine Douluo nor the Serpent Spear Douluo made it onto the rankings.

"Investigate the Great Wall Academy; we must win them over."

"Yes, young master!"

"The plan needs to be put on the agenda. I'm afraid this Golden List is not just about assessing combat strength. If there's a Talent Golden List later, wouldn't I be exposed?"

Qian Renxue was extremely confident in her talent. With a divinely bestowed martial soul and innate level 20 soul power, if she weren't still young, she would definitely have a place on the list of strongest combat power.

[Ranked 23rd on the combat power list, Spirit Hall, Demon-Slaying Douluo!]

[Martial Soul: Panlong Staff; Level 96 Power Attack Type Super Douluo!]

As the list of successful candidates was announced again, Qian Renxue, who had just finished making arrangements, froze on the spot.

"Seventh Grandfather, the twenty-third!"

Qian Renxue said in a trembling voice, having grown up in the Hall of Offerings since childhood, she was very clear about the strength of each of the offerings.

What kind of Chrysanthemum Douluo or Ghost Douluo are they? They're not even qualified to carry the shoes of the worshippers.

But how could a level 96 Super Douluo, whose martial soul is the Panlong Staff, a super weapon martial soul that is no weaker than the Clear Sky Hammer and the Seven Kill Sword, possibly rank 23rd on this combat power list?

It's important to understand that while level 95 and level 96 may seem like only one level apart, the difference between them is like heaven and earth.

[The Demon-Slaying Douluo possesses formidable soul power, a powerful martial soul, and rich experience, hence his ranking here.]

[Rewards include a one-level increase in Soul Power level, a one-thousand-year increase in Soul Ring age, a ninety-thousand-year-old left arm Soul Bone, and one opportunity for Martial Soul Enlightenment.]

again!

All the Soul Masters on the continent were puzzled by these comments, which were full of praise.

The Venerable Elder of the Spirit Hall, such a veteran powerhouse, is only ranked twenty-third!

Inside Shrek Academy,

Yu Xiaogang looked at the golden list in the sky with disdain and said angrily.

"See? This ranking list isn't even staged anymore, it's a completely unofficial list. The Spirit Hall's elder can only be ranked twenty-third. Where on the entire continent are there so many strong people above him?"

Yu Xiaogang felt much more at ease at this point. This fabricated list of names was a perfect opportunity for him to highlight his professionalism as a master.

"I, Yu Xiaogang, absolutely cannot tolerate this kind of unfounded ranking causing chaos on the continent. In a few days, I will definitely compile a more accurate ranking list!"

Inside the Haotian Sect,

The Second Elder, Tang Ming, had already woken up from his coma.

In the square outside the main hall, the disciples of the Haotian Sect were all indignant.

"What trash Seven Kill Sword, what trash Panlong Staff, why are they in front of our Clear Sky Hammer?!"

"That's right, this is completely garbage, a ridiculous ranking list. Our Haotian Sect is number one in the world!"

"We still have our sect leader! He's guaranteed to be in the top ten!"

Tang Ming's face turned pale, and the other elders also realized the situation.

They have no chance of making the list anymore. When will the Haotian Sect re-enter the world?

"Sect Master, let's contact the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon School."

Tang Xiao remained silent. After the Haotian Sect closed its gates, six elders broke through to the title level in succession. He originally thought that as long as the time was right, the Haotian Sect could emerge and restore its reputation as the number one sect in the world.

However, now Tang Ming, the Second Elder, has made a foolish mistake by daring to attack the Heavenly Dao Golden List. Not only has he lost the 100,000-year soul bone that was about to be obtained, but he has also been severely injured by the backlash, with both of his legs broken.

"As long as you, Sect Master, can rank in the top ten, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect will definitely still follow us as the leader."

Even though Tang Ming was severely injured, the idea that the Clear Sky Hammer was invincible had taken root in his heart. He only wanted the Clear Sky Sect to emerge and let the whole continent see the power of the Clear Sky Hammer.

But at that moment, the golden list in mid-air rang out again.

[Ranked 22nd on the combat power list, Haotian Sect, Roaring Sky Douluo—Tang Xiao!]

[Martial Soul: Clear Sky Hammer; Level 96 Power Attack Type Super Douluo!]

Tang Ming and the other elders stood frozen in place, their last hope being that Sect Master Tang Xiao would suddenly appear on the Battle Power Ranking.

Tang Xiao's expression remained unchanged; he had already guessed that he would definitely not make it into the top twenty.

"Brother Hao, I wonder where you'll rank. You're definitely better than your older brother, right?"

Tang Xiao thought to himself, but he didn't know where he was at this moment, near Shrek Academy.

Tang Hao stared at the extremely familiar name on the list of successful candidates, his heart trembling.

My elder brother is only ranked twenty-second. Has the sect fallen so low as to exist?

Tang Hao felt the broken meridians in his body and shook his head with a bitter smile.

How could he possibly compete for a higher ranking on the Golden List now? If it were the old him, he would never have tarnished the reputation of the Haotian Sect.

However, Tang Hao secretly thought that if there were talent rankings or similar lists after the combat power ranking, he would definitely be able to take the top spot.

After all, a 44-year-old Title Douluo was, in his own opinion, the most talented person on the entire continent.

Inside the Spirit Hall's offering hall,

Just as Demon-Slaying Douluo was about to get angry at his ranking, he was stopped by his brother, Thousand-Pound Douluo.

Just as he was about to accept the reward, he saw that Tang Xiao of the Haotian Sect was ahead of him in line.

"How dare you! What makes this brat from the Haotian Sect rank ahead of me?!"

Enraged, the Demon-Slaying Douluo summoned his Martial Soul, the Panlong Staff, which appeared in his hand amidst a howling wind.

"Seventh Brother, don't be angry. I'm finding the trend of the Golden List increasingly unpredictable."

Golden Crocodile Douluo spoke slowly. He had to stop Demon-Slaying Douluo from doing something foolish. If the Golden List punished him, it would be a great loss.

"How on earth is this ranking list determined? How can I, at level 96, only be ranked 23rd? That kid Tang Xiao is the same level as me, so why is he ranked 1st higher than me?!"

As a retainer of the Spirit Hall and a veteran powerhouse on the Douluo Continent, isn't saving face the most important thing in life?

It's understandable that he's ranked last among the enshrined figures, since the general consensus on the mainland is that the seventh in the Hall of Worship is the seventh in the entire country!

But now, this list tells the world.

The Seven Elders of the Spirit Hall can only rank twenty-third in the world!

The far north, Great Wall Academy.

Su Han looked at the names of Demon-Slaying Douluo and Tang Xiao appearing one after another on the Golden List, and pondered in his heart.

"She won't be next, will she?"
