When the Haiyue Empire was mentioned, a hint of warmth and confidence finally appeared in Bibi Dong's eyes.
"Empress Haiyue of the Haiyue Empire is my good friend and best confidante!"
"We used to have very pleasant conversations and considered each other as close friends."
"She will definitely help me."
Bibi Dong touched her cheek, which was still throbbing slightly, and the hatred in her eyes surged again.
"Damn Qian Yu, damn Qian Renxue, damn Mo Jiacheng, damn Xiao Qiao..."
"I, Bibi Dong, will remember this debt!"
"Once I borrow the power of the Haiyue Empire, I will definitely raze the Mo Family City to the ground!"
She had no idea that Haiyue, the "best friend" she spoke of, was one of Qianyu's most loyal subordinates.
Her going there was tantamount to walking into a trap.
...
Just then.
The golden light above the sky underwent another dramatic change.
The surging thunder gradually subsided, and lines of golden characters slowly unfolded like an imperial edict.
The power rankings are finally being released!
[Power Ranking, 10th Place: Haotian Sect!]
[Comment: Once the number one sect on the Douluo Continent, its inherited martial soul, the Clear Sky Hammer, is the number one weapon martial soul on the continent.]
[The strongest member of the sect: Tang Hao (Level 98 Title Douluo).]
[Ranking Reward: All direct disciples of the sect will have their spirit ring age increased by 10,000 years!]
As the list was announced, the entire Douluo Continent fell into a deathly silence.
Immediately afterwards.
It's like pouring a ladle of cold water into a pot of boiling oil.
The entire continent was in complete uproar!
"What?!"
"The Haotian Sect is only ranked tenth?"
"This is outrageous!"
In the streets and alleys of major cities, countless Soul Masters pointed at the sky, their faces filled with disbelief.
"That's the Haotian Sect!"
"The Haotian Sect, hailed as the number one sect in the world!"
"The Clear Sky Sect possesses the Clear Sky Hammer, a top-grade weapon spirit, and also has a sect with two Douluo!"
"They almost fell off the list?"
"Just how valuable is this power ranking?"
People cannot accept this fact.
In their minds, the Haotian Sect was synonymous with invincibility and the pinnacle of the sect world.
And now they're being told that this supposedly great figure is just a goalkeeper?
...
On the sea.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Golden light and blue water dragon collided fiercely in the air.
"The Golden Thirteen Halberds! Gone and never to return!"
Tang San roared, and the Sea God Trident in his hand transformed into a golden streak of light, carrying an indomitable momentum as it slammed into the five Limit Douluos opposite him.
Although the opponent had a large number of people and terrifying strength.
However, Tang San, after all, possessed the power of the Sea God, giving him a significant advantage on the high seas.
This attack actually forced Hai Yi and the others back half a step.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Tang San retrieved his trident, hovering in the air with a proud smile on his lips.
"Five Limit Douluos are nothing special."
"You're not qualified to keep me, Tang San, here!"
Upon seeing this, Ning Rongrong on the boat had her eyes light up and shouted admiringly:
"Third Brother is amazing!"
"One person fighting against five Limit Douluos!"
Xiao Wu also looked proud, raising her chin as she gazed at the battle in the sky.
"Of course."
"Even Limit Douluo have a gap."
"My brother is just one step away from inheriting the Sea God's throne. How could these people be a match for him?"
Upon hearing this, the Shrek members' fear dissipated considerably, replaced by blind confidence.
yes!
Third Brother is destined to become a god!
However.
Just as Tang San was preparing to press his advantage,
The ranking of the Haotian Sect on the sky made him freeze in mid-air.
"What?"
"The Haotian Sect is only ranked tenth?!"
Tang San suddenly looked up, staring intently at the line of text, his eyes almost popping out of their sockets.
"How is this possible?"
"The Haotian Sect is the number one sect on the continent, possessing several titled Douluo and having an extremely profound foundation."
"How could it only be ranked tenth?"
It's not just Tang San.
Tang Hao, who had not shown himself until now, staggered out of the cabin.
He stared at the sky, as if struck by lightning, his weathered face blank with shock.
"The exceptional Haotian Hammer, the majestic Haotian Sect..."
"My Haotian Sect... is only ranked tenth?"
"Is this sky some kind of joke?"
Tang Hao, once the pride of the Clear Sky Sect, had absolute confidence in the sect's strength.
He could not accept this humiliating ranking.
Tenth place?
Those positions are reserved for second-rate forces!
Zhu Zhuqing covered her mouth and exclaimed in surprise:
"My God, even the Haotian Sect can only rank tenth, so how terrifying must the top nine forces be?"
Dai Mubai also looked like he was questioning the meaning of life.
"How could it only be tenth place? That's too low."
"Has our understanding of the power dynamics on the mainland always been wrong?"
Ma Hongjun scratched his head, looking completely bewildered.
"The Haotian Sect, the number one sect on the mainland, is only ranked tenth?"
"Then when I, Fatty, go out and make a living, I won't dare to say that I know anyone from the Haotian Sect."
Ning Rongrong's expression changed drastically, and a hint of panic flashed in her eyes.
"It's all over, it's all over."
Even the Haotian Sect is only ranked tenth.
"Then wouldn't my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School even be able to make the list?"
As one of the three upper sects, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect has always been known for its immense wealth.
However, in terms of combat strength, they are still a step behind the Haotian Sect.
Ning Rongrong was somewhat unconvinced; she felt that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School should at least be on the list.
But this harsh reality left her feeling uncertain.
Tang San took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the shock in his heart.
His gaze swept around, as if trying to see through the layers of mist.
"There are so many powerful hidden forces on the mainland?"
"It seems that this trip to Poseidon Island is more complicated than I imagined."
But then...
Tang San's gaze returned to Hai Yi and the others in front of him.
That arrogant air that belonged to the strong returned to his face.
Since Haotian Sect is ranked low, it means that this list values overall strength.
And he, Tang San.
It represents the pinnacle of individual strength!
Tang San raised the Trident of the Sea God high, its tip pointing directly at Hai Yi.
"roll!"
"Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless and making all five of you Limit Douluos perish in the belly of a fish today!"
The sea breeze suddenly stopped, and the world seemed to freeze for a moment.
Hai Shi's originally cold and beautiful face was now extremely distorted, and destructive and violent energy was expanding wildly within her body.
"not good!"
Tang San's pupils contracted sharply, and the Trident of the Sea God in his hand trembled violently.
"She's going to self-destruct!"
Upon hearing those four words, the Shrek Academy members' minds went blank.
The self-destruction of a Title Douluo is already a disaster, let alone that of a Limit Douluo who stands at the pinnacle of the continent.
If a powerhouse of this level were to self-destruct, the area within a hundred miles would likely be reduced to nothingness, and even the seawater would be instantly evaporated.
"madman!"
"This guy is absolutely insane!"
