Ning Rongrong noticed Qianren Xue's displeasure and frustration, feeling sympathetic, she said, "Qianren Xue, do you also like Brother Yu? If you want to be like us, you can leave the Martial Soul Hall."
Qianren Xue frankly said, "What I want is not just that."
"Then what do you want?" Ning Rongrong asked, confused.
Qianren Xue didn't answer, but Ye Yu spoke up, "What you want, does it include what happened during your inheritance becoming reality?"
Qianren Xue's face immediately flushed, such an expression surprised everyone. Why did Qianren Xue suddenly become shy? What happened?
Qianren Xue diverted the topic and didn't answer, looking at Tang San.
Upon seeing Tang San, Qianren Xue was surprised to see eight wings behind him, as Sea Gods should not have wings.
Tang San's wings were naturally his Eight-Spider Spear evolving into Divine-Level.
"Qianren Xue, how about making a bet with me?" Tang San asked.
"What are we betting on?" Qianren Xue asked, her eyebrows slightly furrowed as she became cautious. She knew that Tang San's cunning was above Ye Yu's.
Although Tang San's power was far less terrifying than Ye Yu's, he was very wise and strategic.
Actually, it wasn't that Tang San's cunning was superior to Ye Yu's; it was just that, to Ye Yu, having strength was enough and other things were unnecessary frills.
Tang San first asked Ye Yu, "Brother Yu, this bet involves you."
Tang San leaned forward and whispered in Ye Yu's ear, to which Ye Yu nodded, "Okay."
Tang San nodded and looked at Qianren Xue, "The bet is this: if I win, you leave the Martial Soul Hall, but if you win, Brother Yu will stay with you, although he won't do anything else for you."
Immediately, Qianren Xue's eyes lit up; winning meant Ye Yu would be with her, something she longed for immensely.
Her greatest desire was to conquer Ye Yu and be with him, but she knew it was impossible. Now, she saw an opportunity; even if she couldn't completely conquer him, having him with her was excellent.
Qianren Xue didn't immediately agree, though this was her only chance. If she lost, she would have to leave the Martial Soul Hall.
Qianren Xue hesitated, and Tang San laughed, "It seems that whether you bet or not, I've already won because you've wavered and lack the determination to win."
Qianren Xue frowned, "I'll take the bet. An Angel God isn't weaker than a Sea God."
Qianren Xue raised the Angel's Holy Sword in her hand, pointing at Tang San, surrounded by golden flames and ten soul rings swirling around her: six black, three red, and one gold.
Tang San released his soul rings, surprising Qianren Xue with nine red and one gold, with his tenth soul ring being somewhat special, blue-gold in color.
Oscar and others stood behind Ye Yu as the divine-level battle began, Sea God against Angel God.
Qianren Xue sneered, "Tang San, aren't you too confident? I became a God earlier than you; you're just newly ascended, can you defeat me?"
Having seen Qianren Xue's power, Tang San, though newly ascended, was ninety percent confident of winning.
After all, their paths to Godhood differed; Qianren Xue had Qian Daoliu's help and sacrifice, while he progressed steadily step by step.
The battle ignited at once, their collision too swift for Oscar and the others to capture.
In close combat, Tang San felt that aside from Ye Yu, he feared no one. Moving with Ghostly Shadows Trace, his figure flickered, using Unstable Storm. Confidently, when facing Qianren Xue, he believed he could immobilize her for up to eight seconds, which meant half the battle was over.
A strong sense of crisis rose in Qianren Xue's heart; a huge golden phantom appeared behind her, raising the Angel's Holy Sword, she shouted, "Angel Judgment!"
The enormous golden angel behind her wielded the towering golden Holy Sword, slashing down, shattering space wherever it went, revealing a vertical spatial turbulence.
Oscar and others remained unaffected behind Ye Yu; without Ye Yu, they would perish here.
Witnessing the power of a God filled them with more longing and fighting spirit.
This move was one of the Angel's secret techniques, with immense destructive power. Tang San resisted it, his Sea God Divine Armor bursting with blue-golden light to shield him.
For another God with a dark attribute, being hit would certainly cause severe injury, but Tang San himself had a light attribute; the combination of light and water meant the Light of Judgment had little effect.
"Sea God, devour!"
A blue-golden vortex appeared before Tang San, devouring the Light of Judgment.
The battle continued as Gods, both possessing the power to control the heavens and earth. Qianren Xue used the power of the sun; her burning flames were True Sun Fire, while Tang San wielded True Yin Water.
However, because Qianren Xue was not the Sun God but the Angel God, she couldn't fully control the power of the sun, only borrowing a small portion. Tang San, being the Sea God, controlled the entirety of the ocean's power.
As Angel God and Sea God are both Main Gods in the Divine Mansion, their battle depended on their individual foundational strength before inheritance.
Ye Yu and the others were confident in this battle; naturally, Tang San's foundation surpassed that of Qianren Xue.
"Angel Domain!"
Qianren Xue went all out, releasing her domain.
Previously, Qian Daoliu had rescued Bibi Dong by releasing the Angel Domain, and Qianren Xue's domain, having reached Godhood, was naturally more terrifying.
The ability was the same, but its power was entirely different.
A crimson-gold disc appeared behind Qianren Xue, akin to a real sun, enveloping the world in gold. Qianren Xue became more divine, while her body transformed instantaneously, one becoming two, two becoming four, with four Qianren Xue's all being tangible.
A gigantic Sea God phantom appeared behind Tang San, blue light filling the world, immediately turning it into a blue-golden hue.
Boom, boom, boom...
The battle intensified, the duel of two Gods shaking the heavens and earth, as if the world was about to be destroyed, striking fear into the continent's inhabitants.
At this moment, Ye Yu looked on helplessly at the constantly emerging images in his mind, unable to make them disappear until he finished watching.
Ye Yu sighed lightly to himself, "Sigh, the battle has lasted so long, and there's still halfway to go."
Watching, Ye Yu suddenly widened his eyes slightly, taking a deep look at Qianren Xue who was fighting.
"Do you want to conquer me so badly... using this move even during battle..."
The scenes in his mind were no longer one-on-one but rather four-on-one.
Indeed, in the final stage of Qianren Xue's Godhood trial, battling an imagined version of herself, she discovered she couldn't conquer it. Qianren Xue's heart remained steadfast, "If I can't conquer you in power, in this aspect, I must conquer you."
Then, in a blink, she became four identical selves.
Looking at the scene in his mind, Ye Yu thought, "If Qianren Xue loses, she'll have to leave the Martial Soul Hall, and I won't have a reason to refuse her anymore. Watching these images in my mind so long has made me think she's quite good, in the future, we might be partners or..."
Ye Yu sighed softly, "Being in that kind of relationship is fine too, but of course, not because she has that ability... Hmm, absolutely not, I'm very pure."
