"Spirit Hall's legacy is extremely ancient. In the entire Douluo Continent, only the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, which has been passed down for over ten thousand years, is sufficient to rival Spirit Hall in terms of history."

"Currently, in the world of Soul Masters, one can say that our Spirit Hall is the most powerful organization. Not only do we possess the largest population of Soul Masters, but in terms of top-tier powerhouses, no other force can compare to us."

"With such a long heritage and so many Soul Masters, it is only natural that within Spirit Hall, there are a vast number of Soul Master Clans. These clans can be said to have joined Spirit Hall in their entirety, becoming an integral part of its structure."

"The most powerful among them is, naturally, the Angel Clan. Spirit Hall originally developed and grew with the Angel Clan as its core. During the ancient era, the number of Soul Beasts on the continent was far greater than it is today."

"While we humans were extremely weak, mostly serving as food for Soul Beasts. Legend has it that the Angel God descended upon the world and chose a human, using their own divine power as a source to bestow a God-Bestowed Martial Soul."

"Later, that inheritor of the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul led humanity to resist the Soul Beasts, expanding human power and territory. As the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul was passed down through the generations, many Soul Master Clans followed the Angel Clan."

"Through this slow accumulation of strength, the Spirit Hall we know today was finally formed. Today, although there are countless Soul Master Clans within Spirit Hall, if we speak of the most powerful ones, they are undoubtedly the Three Great Guardian Clans of the Angel Clan."

The Angel Clan has Three Great Guardian Clans? I haven't heard of that before, Ling Xiao thought idly, his right index finger lightly tapping the desk.

"These three guardian clans are the Golden Crocodile Clan, the Sacred Dragon Clan, and the Snow Drinker Blade Clan. Among them, the Golden Crocodile and Sacred Dragon Clan clans were among the first to follow the Angel Clan, back in ancient times. At that time, Spirit Hall did not yet exist; there was only the Angel Clan."

"When the inheritors of the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul battled across the lands with their Angel Avatar, the Golden Crocodile was their strongest shield, while the Sacred Dragon, filled with the power of light, stayed by their side to follow their commands."

Xu Lin continued with a slight smile, "Both the Golden Crocodile and the White Armored Dragon are top-tier Martial Souls. Among them, the Golden Crocodile is in the highest echelon of top-tier souls, not at all weaker than the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon."

"Furthermore, both of these Martial Souls have a deep connection with True Dragons. The White Armored Dragon is, in fact, a type of True Dragon."

"In ancient times, the Dragon Clan flourished on the continent. They were the absolute overlords among Soul Beasts, reigning supreme over both land and sea. They were not only powerful but also numerous; no other clan could contend with them."

"Even though there were other Soul Beast clans with individual strength not inferior to True Dragons—such as the Titan Giant Ape, the Phoenix, and the Qilin—none possessed the overwhelming influence of the Dragon Clan."

"However, something happened later that caused the Dragon Clan's numbers to plummet. Those incredibly powerful True Dragons almost vanished entirely, and the clan suddenly became weak, no longer as despairingly powerful as before."

"This gave other Soul Beast clans an opportunity, and it gave humans an opportunity as well. The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan began its rapid rise during that period."

"After all, as a True Dragon Martial Soul, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon is best developed by absorbing pure-blooded True Dragon Soul Beasts as Soul Rings."

"The Peerless Powerhouse I mentioned before who led the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan to its peak, Dragon Emperor Douluo Yu Jiaolong, absorbed multiple lightning-attribute True Dragons as his Soul Rings."

"Because True Dragons are so powerful, the corresponding True Dragon Martial Souls are also exceptionally strong. Basically, any True Dragon Martial Soul can at least be classified as a high-level Martial Soul."

"However, just as there are stronger and weaker individuals among dragons, the same applies to Martial Souls; even among top-tier souls, there are differences in strength."

"Because of the True Dragons' strength and prosperity, the Dragon Clan can be categorized as a separate clan among Soul Beasts. Similarly, in our world of Soul Masters, True Dragon Martial Souls are a category of Beast Martial Souls that can be listed on their own."

Seeing that almost all the students were listening intently, Xu Lin felt a bit happy, though she had expected this reaction. She continued, "With the development of the Soul Master world over the years, we have categorized True Dragons into nine types."

"Generally, True Dragons with elemental attributes can be classified as Fire Dragons, Sea Dragons, Wind Dragons, Azure Dragons, Earth Dragons, Holy Dragons, and Demonic Dragons."

"Additionally, there are some True Dragons that are extremely tyrannical and bloodthirsty, with very negative power signatures; these are called Evil Dragons. Finally, those True Dragons that do not fall into the previous eight categories are classified as Heterogeneous Dragons."

"This is just a general classification. Under each category, there are various branch clans. One can say that the prosperity of the Dragon Clan in ancient times was incomparable to any other Soul Beast clan."

"The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon is a type of Azure Dragon, and even within that category, it is one of the highest tiers."

"The White Armored Dragon belongs to the Holy Dragon category. However, it is only a mid-tier True Dragon among the Holy Dragons, not a top-tier one, and cannot be compared to top-tier Holy Dragons like the Radiant Holy Dragon. Nevertheless, the White Armored Dragon remains an extremely powerful Martial Soul."

"As for the Golden Crocodile Martial Soul, which stands as a rival to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, the corresponding Golden Crocodile Soul Beast is not a True Dragon, but it is a type of ancient Soul Beast."

"At the same time, this beast possesses the bloodlines of both the Golden Dragon and the Ancient Sky Crocodile. The Golden Dragon is one of the top-tier True Dragons among the Heterogeneous Dragons; while it does not master special elemental powers, its physical strength is the greatest in the Dragon Clan."

"The Ancient Sky Crocodile is also an extremely powerful ancient Soul Beast, one of the strongest existences among crocodile-type Soul Beasts, rivaling top-tier True Dragons."

"Having inherited two top-tier bloodlines, the Golden Crocodile possesses top-tier strength and defense. Its speed is also not as severely lacking as the Diamond Mammoth's. It is truly one of the most elite Martial Souls."

Golden Crocodile, White Armored Dragon, nine types of True Dragons—Ling Xiao digested this information bit by bit, unable to hide his surprise. He hadn't expected the Dragon Clan to have such dominance in the ancient history of the Douluo Continent.

But why did they suddenly decline? How did those powerful dragons suddenly vanish? Ling Xiao felt there must be a secret hidden within.

"The Nie Clan, which inherits the Snow Drinker Blade Martial Soul, ranks third among the Three Great Guardian Clans, and their strength is equally formidable."

"Unlike the first two, the Nie Clan did not follow the Angel Clan from the beginning. They joined Spirit Hall later, about a thousand years ago, as an entire clan. Due to their great strength, they became one of the Three Great Guardian Clans."

Xu Lin said, "The Snow Drinker Blade is a type of top-tier Tool Martial Soul. It is a blade of extreme cold."

"When cultivated to a high stage, the chill is so intense that snow appears wherever the blade is drawn. It kills without shedding blood—only because the blood is frozen by the blade's chill before it can even splatter."

"The Snow Drinker Blade itself is a Tool Martial Soul, and because members of the Nie Clan haven't traveled the continent much in recent years, you might not be very familiar with its power. However, there is a saying you might have heard."

Xu Lin looked at the children and spoke slowly, "As the saying goes: 'Atop the peaks of the Southern Mountains, the Fire Qilin rages; in the deep trenches of the Northern Sea, the Snow Drinker chills.'"

"In this phrase, 'Fire Qilin' refers to the top-tier Soul Beast, the Fire Qilin. 'Snow Drinker' naturally refers to the Snow Drinker Blade. One is a Tool Martial Soul and the other is a Beast Martial Soul; one is ice and the other is fire. Belonging to the two extremes of ice and fire, they are two top-tier Martial Souls of equal renown and power."
