As soon as Qian Daoliu finished speaking, his entire body radiated the holiness of an angel. His ninth soul ring suddenly flashed—it was his Ninth Soul Skill: Angelic Judgment.
However, this ninth soul skill was clearly extraordinary. His previous eight soul rings also flashed simultaneously, and after doing so, their energy all surged into the ninth soul ring. The ninth soul ring expanded rapidly, resembling a Ring Fusion, but appearing even more terrifying.
At the same time, Qian Daoliu grasped his Angelic Sacred Sword, and the colossal Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul in the sky, under the influence of solar light and angelic divine power, transformed into an enormous golden light sword.
This golden sword shone with endless radiance, resembling a miniature sun.
Clearly, in order to maximize power, Qian Daoliu had unleashed his ninth soul skill through the Angelic Sacred Sword, creating a technique of terrifying might.
This attack likely contained all of his soul power, combined with the divine energy of the Angelic Sacred Sword, and even the faith energy accumulated by Spirit Hall over ten thousand years.
Yang Podi gritted his teeth. Facing Qian Daoliu's ninth soul skill, he dared not show a single trace of carelessness.
The first eight soul rings on his Breaking Soul Spear all detonated, causing the spear to expand immensely.
At the same time, Yang Podi's entire body became clad in armor—his full-body soul bone armor, formed by Hundred-thousand-year soul bones.
Immediately after, his ninth soul ring flashed, and he unleashed his Ninth Soul Skill: Shooting the Sun.
The Breaking Soul Spear instantly became radiant with dazzling colors, resembling a javelin launched into the heavens, piercing straight towards the sky.
In that moment, the massive Angelic Sacred Sword descended, as if it was about to cleave the heavens and the earth apart.
The blade carried a mysterious judgment power, filled with boundless killing intent and divine majesty.
Meanwhile, Yang Podi's Breaking Soul Spear streaked across the sky in a straight line, as if it could pierce through the very firmament.
The entire space collapsed instantly.
The golden Angelic Sacred Sword and the blood-red Breaking Soul Spear collided.
The golden light shattered on impact and was instantly overwhelmed.
The Breaking Soul Spear pierced through the golden radiance, shooting straight through the colossal Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul.
When everything ended, the entire sky seemed to turn into nothingness, as if all light had been erased.
Yang Podi withdrew his soul bone armor, but a trace of blood appeared at the corner of his lips.
Qian Daoliu's attack had indeed been incredibly powerful, fully unleashing the might of Angelic Divine Power.
Even though Yang Podi had been protected by his soul bone armor, he was still injured by the Angelic Divine Power.
However, Qian Daoliu's state was far worse.
A gaping hole had appeared in his left shoulder, and his entire body was drained of strength.
His aura was incredibly weak, and his Martial Soul seemed to have been affected as well.
This was despite Yang Podi deliberately controlling his attack—otherwise, the spear could have pierced through Qian Daoliu's right chest or even his head.
Qian Daoliu struggled to hold himself upright, looking as frail as a dying old man.
Mustered all his remaining strength, he spoke with great difficulty:
"Little friend, I have lost this battle."
As soon as he finished speaking, his body lost all strength and plummeted from the sky, like a falling meteorite.
Yang Podi shook his head, his figure flashing as he swiftly caught up with Qian Daoliu, supporting him back to the Douluo Hall's great hall.
The spectators watching on the Douluo Hall plaza were shocked.
From the looks of it, Qian Daoliu was gravely injured—it was unclear if he could even survive this.
Qian Renxue and Golden Crocodile Douluo quickly rushed to Qian Daoliu's side, supporting him from both sides.
Both of them looked extremely tense, deeply concerned about Qian Daoliu's injuries.
Qian Renxue's face was covered in tears, and she kept crying out:
"Grandfather! Grandfather!"
After handing Qian Daoliu over to Qian Renxue and Golden Crocodile Douluo, the atmosphere around the others grew increasingly tense.
Especially Bibi Dong, whose eyes flickered with murderous intent.
Just as Yang Podi was about to leave, Bibi Dong suddenly spoke viciously:
"Yang Podi, you injured our Grand Worshipper to this extent. Don't you think you owe us an explanation?"
The surrounding elders and worshippers also showed hostile expressions, especially the senior worshippers, who seemed furious.
Yang Podi let out a cold snort:
"A fair challenge between soul masters—injuries are inevitable. What explanation do I need to give? Is there even a need for an explanation?"
Bibi Dong instantly flew into a rage:
"How outrageous! This is a provocation against our Spirit Empire! Even if your strength is formidable, the Spirit Empire will fight you to the death!"
Yang Podi chuckled at these words:
"Bibi Dong, do you even hear yourself? Qian Daoliu isn't dead. Given time, he will recover. Instead of worrying about whether I am provoking your Spirit Empire, you should focus on finding a way to help Qian Daoliu recover."
Bibi Dong's face was filled with anger:
"How dare you, Yang Podi! I know your strength is great, but you'd better surrender obediently! You may escape, but can your Heavenly Academy escape?"
Yang Podi looked at Bibi Dong's increasingly twisted expression and laughed again:
"I've already told you—Qian Daoliu is fine. In my final attack, I deliberately avoided his vital points. He will recover soon enough.
Tell me, do you lack faith in the healing soul masters of the Spirit Empire?
Or do you lack faith in Qian Daoliu's own strength?"
Bibi Dong's expression twitched, but she still refused to back down:
"Even if that's true, before our Grand Worshipper fully recovers, you must remain in Spirit City to await the outcome.
If something happens to the Grand Worshipper, you will never leave Spirit City again."
Yang Podi smirked:
"Now that's interesting.
Qian Daoliu is not Qian Xunji.
He is, after all, a Rank 99 Ultimate Douluo—he won't die so easily or unjustly.
Am I right, Your Majesty Bibi Dong?"
Bibi Dong's expression darkened, but she still refused to back down:
"Even if this was just a sparring match, you heavily injured our Grand Worshipper.
You still owe us an explanation."
Yang Podi let out another cold snort:
"Explanation my ass! Injuries are inevitable in a sparring match between soul masters. Have you never seriously injured someone in a match before?"
However, before Bibi Dong could erupt in fury again, Yang Podi continued:
"What you said does make some sense. In that case, from today onward, I will stay in the Douluo Hall for a while—to prevent any petty individuals from launching a sneak attack on Qian Daoliu."
At this moment, Bibi Dong's expression turned incredibly complex.
Originally, Qian Daoliu's severe injuries had given her a perfect opportunity.
On one hand, she could use this chance to consolidate her power within Spirit City, especially over the worshippers in Douluo Hall.
On the other hand, while Qian Daoliu was heavily injured, she could look for an opportunity to deal with him.
Moreover, there was another key point—Heavenly Academy had always been a thorn in Bibi Dong's side.
Now that Yang Podi had actively challenged and even gravely injured Qian Daoliu, it was practically a perfect excuse to rally the worshippers and make them the vanguard against Heavenly Academy.
But now, with Yang Podi's statement, the entire conflict was suddenly defused.
And with Yang Podi staying in Douluo Hall, it would be impossible to execute any further plans.
The hostility that had filled the atmosphere just moments ago suddenly eased.
In fact, now that Yang Podi had provided this alternative solution, it seemed like a reasonable way forward—at least, both sides had been given an acceptable way out.
