Chapter 18 The Heaven Dou Empire was utterly humiliated.
The most stern yet loving father of the Angel God, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, the Clear Sky Sect, and other sects... all the high-ranking officials of these forces were horrified!
The Spirit Hall possessing a god-level martial soul inheritance was no secret to them, but they hadn't expected Qian Daoliu to be so insane.
He had infiltrated the power center of the Heaven Dou Empire for years!
This undoubtedly declared the Spirit Hall's ambition, which had long surpassed the sects and was now aimed directly at the imperial power!
Shrek Academy.
"Six-winged angels, gods, god-level martial souls? Is there no justice in this world? We ordinary people are like cannon fodder in front of these powerful forces!"
Ma Hongjun's mouth gaped open, then he roared with a frustrated expression.
Dai Mubai's face turned pale: "The Spirit Hall actually has a god-level martial soul inheritance. No wonder Father has always been so apprehensive and grim."
Oscar murmured, "The divine test is accelerating, they really intend to create a god..."
Xiao Wu's eyes were filled with fear, and she instinctively gripped Tang San's arm tightly.
Tang San's expression was incredibly solemn, his fists clenched so tightly that his nails dug deep into his palms: "A divine-level martial soul, Thousand Blade Snow..."
He felt unprecedented pressure, not just from the difference in personal strength, but also from the chasm of the power and lineage it represented.
Yu Xiaogang's body trembled violently, both from shock and from certain confirmation:
"Indeed, divine-level martial souls do exist, but why are they ranked so low? What are those ranked higher?"
Honkai Academy.
"Hmph, finally something decent has arrived."
Theresa, hands on her hips, looked at the holy angelic phantom. "However, compared to a real angel, it seems to be missing something, still not complete."
Fu Hua calmly analyzed, "A complete pantheon of power is indeed top-tier in this world."
"However, limited by the inheritor's mortal body, its power seems to be solidified. Before becoming a god, it is still human, not invincible, and can still be defeated."
Himeko, carrying her flaming greatsword, curled her lip: "A god-level martial soul? Sounds impressive, I wonder if it can withstand a full-force attack from my Crimson Knight: Eclipse form?"
Rita smiled elegantly: "A six-winged angel is indeed a magnificent martial soul, but compared to the creative power controlled by the Dean, it seems a bit smaller in scope."
"We can't boost others' morale while diminishing our own!"
Theresa, hands on her hips, shouted, "The six-winged angel, a god-level martial soul, may seem powerful, but in the end, it's only a twelfth-ranked martial soul. Soon it will be our Honkai Academy's turn!"
Zhang Yi smiled indulgently and nodded, "Vice Dean Theresa is right. I have confidence in your martial souls, especially in my students."
He then looked at the neatly lined-up students in front of him, especially Kiana, Raiden Mei, and Bronya.
These three seemingly only Soul Master level students from another world were all top-tier powerhouses!
"Really? Are our martial souls that powerful? I feel they're quite ordinary."
Kiana blinked, her eyes showing a touch of the naivety characteristic of a paramecium.
"I hope my martial soul won't disappoint the Dean," Raiden Mei replied modestly.
"Can a Heavy Bunny beat a god-level martial soul? I didn't know that..." Bronya tilted her head.
Zhang Yi smiled mysteriously, not revealing anything.
They were unaware that the power of a Herrscher lay dormant within them.
Mastering the Herrscher's core would easily make them city-destroying powerhouses.
Kiana's Herrscher of the End power, for example, possessed the power to destroy a planet, enough to end an entire plane!
"I believe the Dean's words!"
At this moment, Dugu Yan, Zhu Zhuqing, and the others standing to the side also chose to believe him.
Dugu Yan stated directly, "The Dean and Teacher's martial souls not only have unique abilities, but they are also one-of-a-kind. With the rewards combined, they will definitely surpass the villains of the Spirit Hall!"
Zhu Zhuqing nodded, "If given a choice, no one would want to see the Spirit Hall dominate."
"The current situation in the world is delicate; we weaklings can only strive to become stronger," Ye Lingling remarked with a clear head.
"The Heavenly Dao has revealed itself, and the Golden List has been compiled, allowing us Soul Masters without powerful backgrounds to see the moon like frogs in a well, or the blue sky like mayflies," Shui Bing'er exclaimed. "Even if I make the list and my Martial Soul evolves into the Ultimate Ice Phoenix, and I cultivate diligently for another three or four years, I still won't be able to participate in battles of this level. In the future, I will have to rely more on the protection of the Dean and teachers."
As she finished speaking, a strange light suddenly appeared in her eyes as she looked at Zhang Yi.
She had another sentence she didn't finish: Zhang Yi was about the same age as them, yet his strength was so great, and he had even founded the Honkai Academy.
The secret of this Dean was also one of the reasons that attracted her to join the Honkai Academy.
The Six-Winged Angel was a god-level Martial Soul, and the shock brought to the world by Qian Renxue's calm departure after her identity was exposed kept many forces and countless ordinary people on the entire Douluo Continent awake all night.
But the Heavenly Golden List's compilation did not stop, once again shining with unprecedented brilliance!
A vast, profound, azure divine light, seemingly encompassing the entire ocean, swept across the continent like an endless tsunami!
A salty sea breeze seemed to carry the scent of the ocean, waves lapping against the shore, and the low growls of sea beasts echoed deep within the souls of all living beings.
Countless water spirit masters living along the coast felt a profound awe, awe stemming from the very essence of life!
Above the sky, golden light transformed into endless azure tides, ultimately coalescing into a towering phantom—clad in azure divine armor, wearing a dazzling crown, his face both majestic and benevolent, wielding a colossal golden trident that seemed capable of commanding the entire ocean!
The phantom was surrounded by endless waves and the light of faith; its power was so immense that it seemed to rival the previous six-winged angel, even surpassing it in its vastness and antiquity!
This was the Sea God, recognized by the divine realm as one of the few beings capable of surpassing even the Angel God!
