Chapter 133 Battle Power Ranking, Open!
The golden light above the sky completely faded.
In its place was a crimson light, as if dyeing the entire sky a blood-red inferno.
The ancient and vast battle intent grew even stronger, filling the air of the Douluo Continent with a chilling aura.
Countless Soul Masters clenched their fists, their breath quickening as they stared at the blood-red sky.
The Battle Power Ranking was finally about to be officially announced!
"Buzz!"
A blood-red pillar of light shot into the sky.
The first line of information on the ranking, carrying endless killing intent, slowly appeared.
[Battle Power Ranking, 20th Place]
[Name: Xiong Jun (Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear)]
[Affiliation: Star Dou Great Forest]
[Beast Type: Soul Beast]
[Soul Beast Age: 490,000 Years]
[Battle Power Evaluation: One of the ferocious beasts of the Star Dou Great Forest, possessing part of the Behemoth bloodline, with the ultimate attribute of gold. A pair of dark gold terror claws are indestructible and can tear through space. Physical attacks are considered the pinnacle of land-based Soul Beasts, and battle power is comparable to a human Limit Douluo.]
[Reward: Soul Beast's age increased by 5,000 years, attack power permanently increased by 10%, Behemoth bloodline purity increased by 5% (reward pending)]
"Hiss!"
A gasp echoed throughout the entire Douluo Continent!
Although everyone knew the power ranking included both soul beasts and humans, they were still utterly shocked when Xiong Jun's power rating was clearly displayed.
A 490,000-year-old soul beast!
Power comparable to a Limit Douluo!
And such an existence was only ranked twentieth?
Inside the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
Sword Douluo Chen Xin's expectant gaze instantly dimmed.
He had just recovered from the shock of Li Bai's swordsmanship.
He had wanted to see if he could secure a place on the power ranking.
But Xiong Jun's appearance shattered his illusions.
"Limit Douluo's combat power... only ranked twentieth..."
Chen Xin muttered to himself, his voice tinged with bitterness. "It seems the gap between me and the truly top-tier combat power is still too great."
Bone Douluo Gu Rong patted his shoulder, his expression equally solemn: "Not only you, but I'm afraid that across the entire continent, apart from those monsters at the top of the list, no one can even make it onto this combat power ranking."
"The foundation of the Star Dou Great Forest is truly terrifying."
Inside the Papal Palace, Bibi Dong's eyes narrowed.
She only knew that the Soul Beast race was powerful.
But she never expected that Xiong Jun, ranked twentieth, would possess combat power comparable to a Limit Douluo.
"490,000 years, Limit Douluo!"
Bibi Dong murmured solemnly.
"If these Soul Beasts join forces, the Spirit Hall will probably be destroyed in an instant."
Ghost Douluo and Chrysanthemum Douluo beside him were pale-faced.
They might not even be able to secure a victory against a top-tier Super Douluo.
Let alone a soul beast comparable to a Limit Douluo.
"Your Holiness, this power ranking... is too terrifying."
Chrysanthemum Douluo's voice trembled. "Aren't those ranked at the top incredibly strong?"
Bibi Dong didn't answer.
She just stared intently at the sky, a ruthless glint in her eyes.
She vaguely felt that the release of this power ranking might lead to the rise of the soul beast race.
And this was definitely not what she wanted to see.
Inside the Clear Sky Sect.
Tang Xiao led a group of disciples to look up at the sky, their faces full of disbelief.
"A 490,000-year-old soul beast, with power comparable to a Limit Douluo!"
Tang Xiao murmured to himself, "My grandfather Tang Chen, the strongest in my Clear Sky Sect, was only at the Limit Douluo level."
"But such an existence is only ranked twentieth on the power ranking."
"The waters of this continent are much deeper than we imagined." Yu Yuanzhen of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan also showed a shocked expression. As the clan leader, his soul power had already reached the Super Douluo level.
But compared to Xiong Jun's combat power, it was utterly insignificant.
"It seems our previous battles were just minor skirmishes," Yu Yuanzhen sighed.
"Faced with such an existence, the so-called family honor is utterly worthless."
Star Dou Great Forest.
Xiong Jun looked at his ranking on the sky and was instantly enraged.
He slammed his fist into the ground, the immense force causing the earth to tremble and crack open countless fissures.
"Twentieth?"
Xiong Jun roared, his voice like thunder.
"I am a 490,000-year-old ferocious beast, a Behemoth bloodline inheritor, with combat power comparable to a Limit Douluo, and I'm only ranked twentieth?"
"What kind of lousy ranking is this? It's an insult to me!"
The other ferocious beasts around him also turned their heads.
Di Tian frowned slightly.
Although he also felt that Xiong Jun's ranking was a bit low, he didn't fly into a rage like Xiong Jun.
"Xiong Jun, calm down."
"The judgment of the sky won't be wrong. Perhaps those ranked ahead of you are indeed stronger than you," Di Tian said in a deep voice.
"Stronger? How is that possible!"
"Besides Di Tian and the Lord, who else can be stronger than me? Those human soul masters? Don't be ridiculous!"
Xiong Jun's eyes widened, filled with ferocity.
Bi Ji gently advised, "Xiong Jun, don't be impulsive. Since Tian Mu has announced the rankings, there must be a reason for it."
"Perhaps the later rankings will bring some surprises."
Xiong Jun wouldn't listen to anything else; he stared intently at the sky, his eyes filled with resentment and anger.
Just as Xiong Jun was enraged, the crimson light on the sky surged again.
The information for the nineteenth place slowly appeared.
[Battle Power Ranking, Nineteenth Place]
[Name: Lü Bu]
[Affiliation: Beidou Academy]
[Soul Type: Human]
[Soul Power Level: Level 97]
[Martial Soul: Fangtian Halberd]
[Soul Ring Configuration: Black, Black, Black, Black, Black, Black, Black, Red, Red]
[Battle Power Evaluation: One of the top combatants of Beidou Academy, born with the appearance of a war god, with outstanding combat instincts. His Martial Soul, the Fangtian Halberd, is an unparalleled weapon of destruction, possessing the characteristic of 'ignoring defense,' its sharpness slaying gods and demons alike. Its killing intent is condensed into substance, capable of shaking the soul, making him increasingly brave on the battlefield, with combat power comparable to a Limit Douluo.]
[Reward: Soul Power level increased by one level, all Soul Ring age increased by two thousand years, all Soul Bone age increased by two thousand years, 'Ignore Defense' trait increased by 5% (reward to be issued)]
"Lu Bu! It's Beidou Academy again!"
"Level 97 Soul Power, combat power comparable to Limit Douluo?"
"Lu Bu is actually stronger than Xiong Jun!"
Douluo Continent was once again in an uproar.
But this time, the shock was mixed with a touch of numbness.
After all, the strongmen of Beidou Academy had already shattered everyone's perceptions. While everyone was shocked by Lu Bu's level 97 Soul Power, comparable to Limit Douluo, they could barely accept it.
Inside the Hall of Worship.
Qian Daoliu looked at Lu Bu's information on the sky screen, a trace of solemnity flashing in his golden eyes.
"Level 97, Limit Douluo combat power, as terrifying as Sikong Zhen and Sun Wukong who appeared earlier!"
Qian Daoliu muttered to himself.
"What exactly is the cultivation system of these people from Beidou Academy?"
"How can they possess such terrifying combat power with such a low Soul Power level?"
Golden Crocodile Douluo and the others exchanged bewildered glances. Their faces were filled with solemnity.
These veteran Title Douluos were utterly insignificant compared to the young powerhouses of Beidou Academy.
"Grand Elder, at this rate, Beidou Academy might really be going to rule the continent," an elder said bitterly.
Qian Daoliu remained silent, only clenching his fists tightly.
He knew... if the Spirit Hall wanted to rise, it had to get Xiaoxue to complete the Angel God Trial as soon as possible.
Otherwise, under the dual pressure of Beidou Academy and the Soul Beast Clan, the Spirit Hall would inevitably face destruction sooner or later.
Inside Beidou Academy.
Lu Bu, clad in silver armor and wielding his halberd, stood on the plaza.
Feeling the baptism of battle intent emanating from the sky, a glint of fanaticism flashed in his eyes.
"Nineteenth place?"
A cold smile curled at the corner of Lu Bu's lips.
"It seems there are still quite a few worthy opponents on this continent."
Lu Xiao smiled faintly, looking at Lu Bu's battle-ready appearance. "Lu Bu, your combat strength is indeed worthy of nineteenth place. However, those ranked ahead of you are not easy to deal with."
Lu Bu turned to look at Lu Xiao, cupped his hands, and said, "Dean, rest assured, whoever dares to stand in my way, I will surely cut them down with my halberd!"
Just then, the crimson light on the sky surged again.
A line of text suddenly appeared:
[Bear Lord!]
[Do you wish to apply to open the 'Endless Arena' and challenge Lu Bu, ranked nineteenth?]
This line of text was like a thunderclap, instantly attracting the attention of the entire continent!
Everyone became excited.
Their eyes were fixed on the sky, anticipating Bear Lord's answer.
They had long wanted to see what the "Endless Arena" created by the sky looked like. They also wanted to see who would prevail between a soul beast comparable to a Limit Douluo and the War God of Beidou Academy.
Inside the Star Dou Great Forest.
Hearing the vast voice echoing in his mind, Xiong Jun didn't hesitate for a moment, roaring, "Of course I'm not satisfied! Open the arena!"
"I'll tear that human named Lü Bu apart and reclaim my ranking!"
"Boom!"
The words had barely left his lips when two crimson beams of light suddenly shot out from the sky.
One beam shot directly into the core of the Star Dou Great Forest, enveloping Xiong Jun's massive body.
The other beam shot towards the Beidou Academy, enveloping Lü Bu's figure.
The two crimson beams of light acted like teleportation portals, instantly taking Xiong Jun and Lü Bu away from their original positions.
The entire process was as fast as lightning.
Even top experts like Di Tian and Gu Yuena couldn't see how the beams of light appeared, nor could they sense where the two had gone.
"Such powerful spatial force!"
"The power of this sky is beyond my comprehension."
Di Tian's expression turned grave.
A hint of apprehension flashed in Gu Yuena's silver-purple dragon eyes.
"Even I couldn't stop this teleportation power. It seems this 'Endless Arena' truly is an absolutely fair duel arena."
Bi Ji looked worried. "Can Xiong Jun… win?"
Di Tian pondered, "Xiong Jun's attacks are extremely powerful. His Dark Gold Terror Claws can even tear through space. Coupled with the enhancement of his Behemoth bloodline, his combat strength is indeed terrifying."
"But Lu Bu's Fangtian Halberd possesses the characteristic of 'ignoring defense,' which poses a great threat to Xiong Jun's physical body. Moreover, Lu Bu is a born war god with superb combat instincts, growing stronger as the battle progresses."
"The outcome of this battle is unpredictable."
"However, even if Xiong Jun loses, according to the rules of the Heavenly Curtain, he won't be in mortal danger. At most, he will only lose his reward."
