Chapter 86 Xue Ke
Li Tianyi nodded and said, "That makes sense."
"Yes!"
Everyone responded in unison, turning and leaving to perform their duties. On the rooftop, only Li Tianyi remained, gazing at the sky, a profound light flashing in his eyes.
"The power of the rankings is growing stronger, and the continent's overall situation, is becoming increasingly chaotic. What force is controlling this behind the scenes? Perhaps, the answer will be revealed soon."
Inside the Haotian Sect's council hall, Tang Xiao and several elders sat together, the atmosphere heavy.
"Liu Erlong has broken through to level 77 Soul Saint, greatly increasing the strength of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. This is not good news for us."
The First Elder stroked his white beard, his tone heavy. "Although the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan and our Clear Sky Sect belong to the Upper Three Sects, we have always kept to ourselves. Now that they are stronger, they may well have ambitions to expand."
The Second Elder chimed in, "Yes, Sect Master. Liu Erlong has a fiery temper. If she provokes us, should our Clear Sky Sect fight back or avoid battle? If we fight back, Spirit City might take the opportunity to launch a sneak attack."
"Avoiding battle would damage the reputation of our Clear Sky Sect."
Tang Xiao frowned deeply and said in a deep voice, "The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan has no deep-seated hatred for us. Although Liu Erlong is impulsive, she is not someone who cannot distinguish right from wrong."
"Her main enemy now is Spirit City, and she will not attack us for the time being."
"However, we cannot let our guard down. Pass on my orders to strengthen the sect's defenses and accelerate the disciples' cultivation progress."
"Furthermore, send someone to the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan with congratulatory gifts to express our goodwill."
"Tell them that the Clear Sky Sect is willing to join hands with the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan to jointly combat the threat from Spirit City."
"Yes, Sect Master!"
Several elders bowed in unison to accept the order. Tang Xiao gazed out the window, thinking to himself, "Liu Erlong, I hope you can recognize the situation and not let your strength cloud your judgment. Otherwise, even if it's one of the three upper sects, our Haotian Sect will not fear a battle."
In the far north, the Ice Emperor and Snow Emperor stood side by side, looking towards the direction of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, their eyes filled with vigilance.
"Liu Erlong's Fire Dragon Martial Soul is incompatible with our ultimate ice attribute," a hint of worry flashed in the Ice Emperor's emerald eyes.
"Her flames are incredibly powerful, and now, with the blessing of the rankings, her strength has skyrocketed. If she were to invade the Arctic Ice Plains in the future, our people would likely be unable to withstand her."
Snow Empress's body was enveloped in a gentle mist of snow, her tone cool yet firm: "No need to worry. The Arctic Ice Plains environment has a natural suppressive effect on fire-attribute soul masters. Liu Erlong's Fire Dragon Martial Soul will be significantly less powerful here."
"Moreover, our ultimate ice is not so easily burned. As long as we prepare in advance and strengthen our border defenses, she might not dare to attack easily."
"However, we cannot be careless." Snow Empress paused, then continued, "Liu Erlong is impulsive. If provoked by Martial Soul City, she might do something irrational."
"We must accelerate our own cultivation, stabilize our ultimate power, and closely monitor the movements of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan. If we discover anything unusual, we must immediately prepare for battle."
Ice Empress nodded, turning and walking towards the ice cave in the core area of the Arctic.
"I will have my people strengthen patrols and reinforce the defensive barrier. You should also break through to the Title Douluo realm as soon as possible, so that we can be more confident in dealing with any unforeseen circumstances."
The Snow Empress looked at the Ice Empress's back, a resolute glint in her eyes: "Don't worry, I will."
In the core area of the Star Dou Great Forest, Gu Yuena sat on the Dragon God Throne, a hint of disdain flashing in her pale purple eyes.
"A mere mutated fire dragon dares to stir up trouble? In my eyes, Liu Erlong is nothing but an ant."
Di Tian stood to the side, his golden eyes filled with solemnity. "My lord, Liu Erlong's strength is indeed not to be underestimated, especially her fire dragon soul skill, which has a strong restraining effect on our soul beasts."
"Moreover, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan has a long tradition of hunting soul beasts to obtain soul rings. Now that Liu Erlong's strength has greatly increased, they are likely to intensify their hunting efforts, which will be a huge threat to our Star Dou Great Forest."
Bi Ji echoed, "Di Tian is right, my lord. Liu Erlong is fiercely opposed to evil. If she believes that the soul beasts of our Star Dou Great Forest are a threat to humanity, she may personally lead an army to wipe them out."
"We must strengthen the defenses of the Star Dou Great Forest and severely crack down on those human soul masters who intrude."
Gu Yuena nodded slightly, her tone icy. "Pass down the order to have the soul beasts on the outer perimeter increase their patrols. Once they discover any soul masters from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, kill them without mercy!"
"Furthermore, I hereby order you, Di Tian, to personally oversee the outer perimeter of the core area. If Liu Erlong dares to trespass into the Star Dou Great Forest, make sure she doesn't return!"
"Yes, Master!"
Di Tian and Bi Ji bowed simultaneously, accepting the order, a hint of killing intent flashing in their eyes.
Just then, the Goddess Ranking began to change, with the seventeenth place appearing on the list.
[Goddess Ranking No. 17: Xue Ke]
[Level: 26]
[Affiliation: Heaven Dou Empire]
[Evaluation: Princess of the Heaven Dou Empire, her martial soul is the royal inheritance of the White Swan, which contains a significant amount of Emerald Swan bloodline. She is gentle and clever.]
[Reward: Martial Soul evolves into Emerald Swan, Soul Power increases by four levels.]
Above the sky, Liu Erlong's gilded list had not yet completely disappeared, and the aftershocks of the crimson-gold dragon's might still reverberated across the continent. Another gentle yet noble silver light quietly spread out.
Unlike the fiery dragon's violent heat, this silver light was like moonlight falling on a calm lake, carrying a soothing and gentle aura, slowly covering the sky.
When the characters "Xue Ke" appeared in crystal-clear seal script, followed by "Heaven Dou Empire" and "White Swan," the continent, still reeling from the roar of the fire dragon, was once again thrown into an uproar.
The Heaven Dou Empire's royal family, as the ruling power of one of the continent's two great empires, possessed the White Swan martial soul, renowned for its pure support abilities and noble bloodline, even though it wasn't a top-tier offensive martial soul.
Princess Xue Ke, the Heaven Dou Empire's most beloved princess, was the white moonlight in the hearts of countless young soul masters with her gentle and lively nature.
"Seventeenth on the Goddess Ranking! It's Princess Xue Ke!"
"Level 26 Soul Master? A four-level jump to the peak of Level 30 Soul Venerable? And her Martial Soul has evolved into an Emerald Swan!"
"The Emerald Swan! That's a legendary top-tier support Martial Soul with healing and purification powers, comparable to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's Glazed Tile Pagoda!"
"The Heaven Dou Empire is defying the heavens! First, Liu Erlong's strength skyrocketed, and now even Princess Xue Ke has received the blessing of the rankings, not only evolving her Martial Soul but also directly breaking through to the peak of Soul Venerable. Her luck is incredible!"
"Don't forget, Princess Xue Ke's White Swan Martial Soul already contains the Emerald Swan bloodline. Now, after evolving, she'll likely inherit the complete legacy of the Emerald Swan, and her support abilities will definitely rank among the top on the continent!"
