Chapter 76 Goddess Ranking, Number Nineteen: Yue Guan.
Gu Yue Na's pale purple eyes flickered slightly, the dragon patterns on her fingertips shimmering subtly. Sensing the spiritual energy fluctuations emanating from the Emotional Harp, a barely perceptible interest flashed in her eyes.
"A mental-type martial soul, capable of manipulating emotions…that's quite interesting."
She didn't take Tang Yue Hua seriously, only finding this power somewhat special, perhaps a good toy in the future.
In the far north, on the Ice Plains, the Ice Emperor's emerald green eyes flickered slightly as she gazed at the sky, her tone carrying a hint of surprise.
"The Harp of Emotions, a mental element... this woman's luck is quite good."
"However, this power alone isn't enough to make us take her seriously. As long as she doesn't provoke the Far North, let her be."
Snow mist gently swirled around the Snow Emperor, her icy blue eyes flickering, her tone cold: "The stronger the power, the harder it is to control. If she can't wield the Harp of Emotions, she'll eventually be devoured by its power and perish."
"We don't need to worry about it; we can focus on our own cultivation."
Inside the Demon Forest, the Evil Emperor's giant eyeball stared intently at the sky, a hint of jealousy and greed flashing in its purplish-black pupils: "Damn it! Such a heaven-defying reward was given to a human woman!"
"The Harp of Emotions, a spiritual instrument! If I could obtain this power, I would surely break through a million years and control the continent!"
The black mist around him surged wildly, and the Evil Emperor's tentacles slammed violently against the ground. His tone was somewhat crazed: "Send people to investigate! Find out the location of Yuexuan. Once the Dragon God's pressure weakens, we will seize the Harp of Emotions! As long as I obtain this harp, I can become the ruler of the continent!"
The evil soul beasts outside the hall roared, their eyes filled with greed. Their desire for the Harp of Emotions made them temporarily forget the fear of the Dragon God's pressure.
As the golden pillar of light gradually dissipated, Tang Yuehua stood in the center of the elegant room, the Emotional Harp hovering before her. A thousand-year-old soul ring slowly rotated around her, and she emanated the aura of a level fifteen soul master. Although her level wasn't high, the spiritual energy emanating from the Emotional Harp inspired awe.
She took a deep breath, suppressing the turmoil in her heart, her eyes filled with determination.
"From this day forward, I, Tang Yuehua, will no longer be a woman who can only rely on her talent! I will master this power, protect Yuexuan, protect Haotian Sect, and live up to this recognition from the rankings!"
She gently plucked the strings, and a peaceful yet resolute melody flowed out, resonating throughout every corner of Yuexuan. The maids and disciples outside the elegant room stopped to listen, their eyes filled with pride and reverence.
Above the sky, Tang Yuehua's ranking information completely vanished, but the news of the Emotional Harp's descent resounded like thunder throughout the entire continent, causing all forces to re-examine this woman from the Haotian Sect, and making everyone even more eager for the subsequent rewards of the Goddess Ranking.
Above the sky, Tang Yuehua's ranking information vanished in less than three breaths, and the previously dark sky suddenly shone with brilliant golden light once more.
The seal script flowed down like water, and the various forces on the continent, who had just calmed down somewhat, instantly locked their gazes on the sky again, even unconsciously lowering their breath, afraid of missing a single word.
[Goddess Ranking No. 19: Yue Guan]
[Affiliation: Spirit Hall]
[Level: 95 Title Douluo]
[Evaluation: The only person on the continent to possess a Celestial Grade Herbal Martial Soul, the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum. Although male, he broke through gender barriers with the uniqueness of his Martial Soul and top-tier talent, thus entering the ranks of the Goddess Ranking. His Celestial Grade Herbal Martial Soul possesses boundless potential and outstanding combat power, making him a rare and special genius on the continent.]
[Reward: One Celestial Grade Herbal Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum, and a forced level increase in Soul Power.]
These few lines of text exploded like thunder in every corner of the continent, instantly plunging all forces, who were still immersed in the joy of Tang Yuehua's rise, into an eerie silence.
Then, a deafening uproar erupted, with countless Soul Masters staring wide-eyed, their faces filled with disbelief, some even doubting whether they had misread the words on the sky.
"Yue Guan? Is that Yue Guan, the Chrysanthemum Douluo from the Spirit Hall?"
"You're not seeing things, are you? The Goddess Ranking! How can a man be on the list? Has this ranking gone mad?"
"The key is the evaluation at the end! Breaking gender barriers with the uniqueness of his spirit, a Celestial Grade Herb Spirit, the only one on the continent! No wonder he's on the list!"
"Chrysanthemum Douluo himself is androgynous, with a slender figure and stunning looks. With the added blessing of a Celestial Grade Spirit, perhaps his uniqueness far outweighs his gender in the ranking!"
"The reward is even more outrageous! A Celestial Grade Herb is given away directly, and it can also forcibly increase one level of spirit power, from level 95 to level 96. For a Title Douluo, each level increase is incredibly difficult. This reward is simply heaven-defying!"
In spirit master gathering places, restaurants, markets, and sect headquarters all over the continent, similar exclamations and discussions resounded. The original understanding of the Goddess Ranking was completely overturned.
No one expected that this list, which focused on women from the mainland, would include a male Title Douluo—the Chrysanthemum Douluo from the Spirit Hall, renowned for his beauty.
Inside the Papal Palace in Spirit City, the atmosphere was incredibly strange. Bibi Dong's fingertips caressed the gem at the top of the Papal Scepter.
A flicker of surprise crossed her crimson eyes, followed by a cold, playful smile. Her lips curved slightly, her tone laced with mockery.
"Interesting. This list has such a twist. Yue Guan, you've certainly given me a surprise."
As soon as she finished speaking, everyone's gaze turned to the Chrysanthemum Douluo, Yue Guan, slumped in the corner.
Yue Guan, who had been feeling resentful due to the Dragon God's oppressive aura, was struck dumb upon seeing the list information on the screen, frozen in place as if struck by lightning.
His previously pale cheeks flushed crimson, his ears turning a deep red, almost dripping blood. He was filled with shame and anger, his fingers gripping the stone slab tightly, his knuckles white, the faint cracking sound of the stone audible.
"Absurd! Utterly absurd!"
Yue Guan abruptly stood up, his soul power surging uncontrollably. The pressure of a level 95 Title Douluo instantly spread out, causing the maids and low-level soul masters in the hall to kneel, their faces deathly pale.
His voice was sharp, filled with barely suppressed shame and indignation, "I am a titled Douluo of the Spirit Hall, a man, who has roamed the continent for many years! How could I be on this damned Goddess Ranking! This is an insult to me! Absolutely an insult!"
He had always been concerned with his appearance and figure. Although a man, he was extremely beautiful, with fair skin, charming eyes, and a slender, tall figure, surpassing many women in beauty. He also favored exquisite clothing.
But being listed as a "goddess" on the list now only made him feel utterly humiliated, wishing he could disappear into the ground. The thought that all the Soul Masters on the continent were watching filled him with shame and anger.
The illusory image of his Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum Martial Soul faintly appeared around him, its pale golden petals trembling slightly, as if echoing his emotions.
