Douluo: Qian Xunji's Joyful Life

Chapter 34: Qian Xunji Challenges the Worship Hall

These four people were naturally Tang Zhen, Yu Yuanzhen, Ning Fengzhi, and the Sword Douluo guarding Ning Fengzhi.

"Ning Fengzhi, why did you summon this old man here?"

Yu Yuanzhen let out a cold snort, his temper particularly foul. In this Seven Great Sects Re-election Assembly, the one who suffered the most losses was his Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. Once ranked second among the Upper Three Sects, it had now fallen to the bottom. Everyone else had gained the title of the world's number one, except for him—he got nothing.

Ning Fengzhi's gentle voice sounded, "Sect Master Yu, don't be anxious. How is Sect Master Tang's injury?"

"Many thanks to Sect Master Ning for the thousand-year-old lingzhi. After taking it, my injury has improved greatly,"

Tang Zhen replied, though his voice was still somewhat weak, and he occasionally gave a dry cough.

"Sect Master Tang, Sect Master Yu, the reason I called the two of you here is to discuss the survival of the Upper Three Sects." Ning Fengzhi's brows furrowed deeply. "Sect Master Tang, you know, ever since Senior Tang Chen left, the Spirit Master world has once again become dominated solely by Spirit Hall."

Tang Zhen remained silent, while Yu Yuanzhen snorted again, "So what? Does Spirit Hall dare to make a move against my Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan?"

Ning Fengzhi gave a bitter smile. "Sect Master Yu, do you really not know what kind of realm level 99 is?"

"Uncle Jian, why don't you explain it? You're the most qualified to speak on this."

Sword Douluo swept his gaze across Tang Zhen and Yu Yuanzhen, then said: "Although I'm currently only level 94, my father told me everything beyond level 95."

"Once a Spirit Master surpasses level 95, it becomes the watershed of Title Douluo. Between level 91 and 95, there are still significant gaps, but one can compensate with superior spirit quality, spirit bones, or skills. However, if one of the two fighting Title Douluo is above level 95, the outcome changes. A level 96 Title Douluo has 20% more spirit power than a level 95."

"That 20% increase in spirit power cannot be made up by spirit quality or ordinary skills and bones. Unless there's a fundamental difference in abilities, a level 96 Title Douluo can fully suppress anyone under level 95."

"A level 97 Title Douluo has 20% more spirit power than level 96, meaning level 97 can completely suppress level 96."

Upon hearing this, Yu Yuanzhen's expression turned grave.

Chen Xin continued, "Father told me that if we disregard mutual restraint between spirits or skill counters, this is indeed the case purely in terms of spirit power. Beyond level 95, even a single-level difference is enormous. The gap between level 97 and 98 is 30%, and between 98 and 99, it's 40%. That means a level 99 Title Douluo can potentially face four opponents under level 95 alone."

Tang Zhen sighed, "No wonder that even as I kept breaking through, I always felt that Father was unfathomable. He was actually this powerful!"

Yu Yuanzhen could no longer act arrogantly. If level 99 was truly this powerful, then Qian Daoliu alone could annihilate the entire Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.

Ning Fengzhi said, "Sect Master Tang, Sect Master Yu, don't be too nervous. Qian Daoliu is powerful, but if we, the Upper Three Sects, join forces, with Uncle Jian and Uncle Gu, we'll have four Title Douluo. Adding my support, that makes eight."

"But the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is far from our Clear Sky Clan. As the Sect Master of the Seven Treasures, how could you provide support?"

Tang Zhen asked. Tang Chen had indeed left a backup plan for the Clear Sky Clan. That mountain range had been partially modified—if Qian Daoliu attacked, they could hide there. But who would want to live in such a frozen wasteland? The current Clear Sky Clan was far too comfortable.

"That's what I'm about to explain," Ning Fengzhi smiled. "Spirit Hall has Qian Daoliu and Qian Xunji, two Guardian Douluo, but I believe there are hidden Title Douluo as well. If Spirit Hall makes a move on any of our sects, they will not send everyone, but rather just part of their spirit master legion."

"My proposal is this: from now on, the Upper Three Sects stand united as one. Clear Sky Sect, Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan are family. If Spirit Hall attacks one, the other two must respond immediately!"

Tang Zhen and Yu Yuanzhen didn't hesitate long and nodded one after another. They understood the principle of shared fate—if they wanted to oppose Spirit Hall, they had to unite all Title Douluo of the Upper Three Sects, plus Ning Fengzhi's support. Otherwise, divided, they would be defeated one by one.

Two years passed in a flash. During that time, the Clear Sky Clan, Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, and Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan truly acted as one, often visiting each other for gatherings.

Tang Hao spent two years gaining full control over the Killing God Domain and broke through to the Spirit Sage level. A 30-year-old Spirit Sage—Ning Fengzhi called him a mountain that the younger generation could never surpass.

After this, Tang Zhen handed the last of the Clear Sky Sect's three inherited spirit bones to Tang Hao. His illness was worsening, and he didn't have many good years left, so he sent Tang Hao and Tang Xiao out to train, obtain spirit rings, gain experience, and improve their cultivation. When they returned, he would pass on the position of Sect Master.

Tang Hao and Tang Xiao, one a Spirit Sage, the other a Spirit Douluo, both backed by the number one sect in the world—Clear Sky Sect—quickly gained footing in the Spirit Master world and were hailed by the outside world as a "dual Douluo family."

Spirit Hall.

After two years of secluded cultivation, Qian Xunji successfully broke through to level 94 and arrived at the Worship Hall.

"What the hell are you doing all day long? You're the Pope of Spirit Hall now!"

Qian Daoliu reminded him. He truly didn't understand Qian Xunji's thought process. Last time, after finishing his seclusion, Qian Xunji asked to hunt spirit rings in the Star Dou Forest—that was fine. But this time, he asked for people… for a duel.

Qian Xunji said, "Father, you know that after level 95, every level is no longer about spirit power accumulation, but enlightenment. And since everyone's spirit is different, what needs to be understood differs too. The last generation's Sword Douluo sought out people to spar with to break through and eventually lost to you. The uncles in the Worship Hall spend all day training, but that's not enough. I also want to train and build combat experience."

Qian Daoliu slowly clenched the hands behind his back. "Are you treating my words as wind in your ears? Or do you think I'm the only one in the Worship Hall?"

"Of course not. With Ancestor God's power, I could lie down and still reach level 99. But Father, the next generation's Clear Sky Douluo has appeared. In the future, he might become another Tang Chen and also reach level 99."

"It's one thing for you to lose to Tang Chen. But I absolutely cannot lose to someone from the next generation like Tang Hao."

Qian Xunji argued, completely ignoring the veins bulging on Qian Daoliu's forehead.

After the Seven Sects Re-election Assembly, Qian Xunji had already come up with more than ten ways to crush the Clear Sky Hammer. But theory is still theory—it needs to be tested. It's like expecting a maxed-out Kaguya to lose chakra to Naruto and Sasuke.

Was there someone in the Worship Hall whose fighting style resembled the Clear Sky Hammer? Of course—Second Worship, Golden Crocodile Douluo. During the battle of Jialing Pass, he clashed head-on with Tang Hao. Though he didn't win, did Tang Hao knock off even a single crocodile scale?

Not even a god-level Nether White Tiger could kill Golden Crocodile. So what's a full-ring explosion from Tang Hao?
