Douluo: Starting with a self-created soul ring

**Chapter 154: Tang Hao's Challenge**

"Xiaoxue just awakened her Martial Soul last month!"

Upon hearing Tang Chen's question, Qian Daoliu's lips curved involuntarily, and he smiled slightly.

"What?"

"You're saying she just awakened her Martial Soul last month?"

"Is your granddaughter only six years old?"

After hearing Qian Daoliu's words, even the well-informed Tang Chen couldn't help but widen his eyes for a moment, looking at the girl who was practicing in disbelief.

"How is this possible..."

"She's only six years old, and she's already at Level 20?"

Tang Hao beside him also opened his mouth wide when he heard this, with a look of disbelief on his face.

Even if the girl was born with full innate Soul Power, it only took her a month to reach Level 20!

Reaching 10 levels in a month?

It's impossible, no matter how you think about it!

"Yes, Xiaoxue's talent is really good!"

Qian Daoliu said with a smile.

He didn't mention anything about Qian Renxue's innate Soul Power level.

He just said that Qian Renxue's talent was extraordinary. Then, he looked at Tang Hao and changed the subject, "Your grandson is also very good. He has already reached the rank of a Soul Sage, right?"

He could sense that Tang Hao must have broken through to the Soul Sage level!

If Gu Ziyi and Bibi Dong hadn't broken through before him, to be honest, he would have been surprised to know that Tang Hao had reached Soul Sage at such a young age.

But now he feels that's all there is to it!

His granddaughter will definitely surpass Tang Hao in the future.

"Yes, my grandson has already broken through to Soul Sage!" Tang Chen nodded and said with a smile.

He was very satisfied with his grandson's cultivation.

Although it's not as good as Bibi Dong's, the Saint of the Martial Soul Hall, this is because the girl's talent is really powerful and she is also a twin Martial Soul, so her cultivation advantage is very obvious.

However, he also thought it was too much of a waste for Bibi Dong to cultivate both Martial Souls at the same time.

What really shocked him was Gu Ziyi's performance; he really reached Soul Sage so quickly.

As for Qian Renxue in front of him, although he was also curious to know how she managed to reach Level 20 after awakening her Martial Soul in just a month, seeing that Qian Daoliu obviously had no intention of discussing it, he stopped asking.

It's normal for the Martial Soul Hall or Qian Daoliu to have their own secrets.

Doesn't the Haotian Sect have one now?

In addition to the soul skills he created himself, the Haotian Sect now also possesses a treasure like Tang San.

The martial arts of the Tang Sect, possessed by Tang San, were definitely a weapon to strengthen his Haotian Sect.

Just the Xuantian Technique, which can be practiced even without having awakened a Martial Soul, is extremely precious.

It's a pity that the Xuantian Technique has another flaw, which is that after reaching the tenth level of Soul Power, you encounter a bottleneck and can't practice for a while.

Tang Chen guessed that perhaps he would have to wait until Tang San awakened his Martial Soul before he could continue practicing.

However, the Xuantian Technique was enough, and the Haotian Sect could mass-produce geniuses with innate Soul Power.

In addition to Tang San, some of the ten children who joined the Tang Sect have now reached a bottleneck in their cultivation.

Therefore, Tang Chen was full of hope for the future of the Haotian Sect and wasn't afraid that one or two geniuses might appear in the Martial Soul Hall.

No matter how talented that person is, can they really produce more than their sect can produce in bulk?

"I'm here because of my grandson!"

Tang Chen continued speaking.

"Oh? What's wrong with your grandson?"

Upon hearing this, Qian Daoliu looked at Tang Hao with a questioning look in his eyes.

In his opinion, there shouldn't be any problem with Tang Hao. He had already cultivated to the level of a Soul Sage. There was no way the situation with Tang Yuehua would happen to him, right?

"…"

Tang Chen's eyes trembled slightly, and he almost thought Qian Daoliu was cursing him.

"It's nothing like that. Simply put, this kid isn't convinced after his loss last time, so he wants to compete again with the boy when they're at the same level!"

Tang Chen laughed and said this directly.

Tang Hao also felt a little shy at this moment.

Originally, he planned to just talk to his grandfather and then go to Gu Ziyi to challenge him.

However, he didn't expect that after saying this, Tang Chen would actually say he was going to visit his old rival with him.

Originally, it was his problem, but now that his grandfather and Qian Daoliu said this so seriously, he couldn't afford to lose.

"Yes, senior, I want to compete with Gu Ziyi again!"

However, it was his heart's desire to fight Gu Ziyi again. Tang Hao was a bit shy and quickly expressed his intention.

"I understand. It's just like it was for us back then!"

Qian Daoliu was a bit surprised to hear this and said emotionally.

"No problem, I will ask Gu Ziyi to come later. My granddaughter's cultivation is more important now!"

Then Qian Daoliu waved his hand and said.

He would definitely not stop this kind of behavior. If Gu Ziyi was willing to accept Tang Hao's challenge, that was the boy's problem.

Buzz—

It was at this moment that there was finally movement from Qian Renxue's side.

Only two yellow Soul Rings were seen, slowly appearing on her body.

"Grandpa, my second Soul Ring was successfully condensed!"

After Qian Renxue opened her eyes, she immediately shared this with her grandfather.

"Huh?"

"Grandpa, who are they?"

Soon after speaking, Qian Renxue noticed that besides her grandfather, there were other people present.

While speaking, she also ran behind Qian Daoliu.

"Not bad, Xiaoxue is really amazing!"

"These two are guests of Grandpa!"

"This old man is Tang Chen, the founder of the Haotian Sect, whom Grandpa told you about before, and the young man beside him is his grandson, Tang Hao!"

Qian Daoliu patted Qian Renxue's head and introduced the two with a smile.

"Oh!"

Qian Renxue's big eyes sparkled slightly when she heard this, then she hid behind her grandfather and stretched her head to look at the two men with curiosity.

…

"Big sister, from now on, you will join the law enforcement team and serve in the law enforcement team!"

"Our Martial Soul Hall is responsible for protecting the continent, but there are still some fallen and evil Soul Masters appearing in many places. We haven't been able to act because of the protection provided by the two Empires!"

"Big sister, after joining the law enforcement team, you don't need to worry about that. As long as they are fallen and evil Soul Masters, no matter what their identities are, big sister can just take them down one by one!"

"Big sister will kill those who have committed the most heinous crimes. It's the right time for us to practice our killing skills together!"

In the Papal Palace, Gu Ziyi made preparations for Bibi Dong after his return.

Before that, he had told her that his Death God's Domain could evolve through killing and fighting.

"Okay, no problem!"

"Just leave it to me!"

When Bibi Dong heard this, she immediately became interested.

She also hoped to help her dear younger brother, so starting by joining the law enforcement team would be good!

And she could also practice her Death God's Domain.

"Fei, please continue following Big Sister to protect her!"

Then Gu Ziyi also spoke to Li Chanfei.

"No problem!"

Li Chanfei agreed with a smile.

Although she had surpassed the level of a Title Douluo and joined the Hall of Elders, Li Chanfei continued to voluntarily serve as Bibi Dong's protector.

"Your Highness, the Holy Son, I would like to request that you come to the Hall of Elders for a moment!"

"Tang Chen and Tang Hao from the Haotian Sect are here!"

At this moment, a voice suddenly came from outside.

Tang Chen and Tang Hao?

Gu Ziyi was slightly surprised to hear this. He didn't expect the two of them to come here.

"Okay, I'll go right away!"

Gu Ziyi responded, then looked at the two girls in front of him.

"Little Brother, I'll go too!"

Before Gu Ziyi could speak, Bibi Dong spoke first with interest.

She was also very curious as to why Tang Chen from the Haotian Sect was here to meet him.

Of course, Gu Ziyi had no objections, so the two went to the Hall of Elders.

…

"Big Brother, Big Sister!"

When the two arrived at the Hall of Elders, they immediately heard Qian Renxue's call.

"Supreme Elder, Senior Tang Chen!"

Gu Ziyi and Bibi Dong smiled, then nodded at Qian Renxue, greeting the two elders in the room.

"Gu Ziyi, I heard you've also broken through to the Soul Sage. Do you dare fight me again?"

As soon as Gu Ziyi entered, Tang Hao looked closely at him. After the boy finished speaking, he couldn't help but stand up and challenge him directly.

While Tang Hao spoke, his eyes were filled with a fierce fighting spirit as he stared directly at Gu Ziyi.

Tang Chen frowned slightly when he saw his grandson's impatient behavior.

Can't he wait a little?

"Hao'er, we'll talk about the challenge later!" Tang Chen shouted at his grandson and then looked at Gu Ziyi. "You're very good. I've heard of you for a long time. Tang Yuehua is currently able to cultivate, and that's all thanks to you. So I would like to thank you!"

"As for Hao'er's challenge, he simply can't accept that he lost to you last time. If you're willing to fight him again, then accept. If not, just ignore him!"

Finally, Tang Chen also spoke about his grandson's challenge to Gu Ziyi.

Whether he accepts or not is entirely up to Gu Ziyi.

Obviously, Tang Chen didn't intend to force the boy into this fight.

He truly admired Gu Ziyi. Just the fact that he helped his granddaughter solve the problem of her inability to cultivate was enough for him to look at him differently.

Not to mention that Gu Ziyi also developed the new cultivation method, the self-condensing Soul Rings.

Only then did Gu Ziyi understand that Tang Hao came here to challenge him.

And from Tang Hao's words, it wasn't hard to tell that he had already advanced to the Soul Sage level at this point.

This surprised him.

According to the original timeline, Tang Hao reached Soul Sage when he was thirty years old, but now it's a year earlier than expected.

Did he really work harder to defeat him and regain his honor?

"You're challenging me? I'm always ready!"

Then Gu Ziyi smiled slightly, looked at Tang Hao, and agreed.

"Well, you're a brave boy!"

Tang Hao was very happy to hear this. After hearing what his grandfather said earlier, he was worried that Gu Ziyi would not accept his challenge!

"Hmph, that should be what my younger brother says to you. It's not enough that you lost to my younger brother once, but now you actually have the courage to challenge him again!"

After hearing Tang Hao's words, Bibi Dong couldn't take it anymore and started attacking him directly.

He said his line as if it was a great thing for Gu Ziyi to accept his challenge.

She had never seen someone so arrogant before!

"You..."

Tang Hao's face suddenly turned pale when he heard what she said, then he confidently replied, "I was just careless last time, and I definitely won't lose again this time!"

"You're confident based only on the Death God's Domain you acquired?"

Buzz—

Bibi Dong couldn't stand seeing Tang Hao not being convinced after his loss and acting arrogantly as if he were the best in the world. After speaking, she immediately released her Death God's Domain.

A cold aura suddenly enveloped the entire Hall of Elders.

Qian Daoliu quickly protected his granddaughter.

"Death God's Domain!"

"You really obtained the Death God's Domain!"

Feeling the Death God's Domain released by Bibi Dong, Tang Hao's eyes suddenly widened in disbelief.

He never expected that she had obtained the Death God's Domain, which he had only recently achieved after four years of struggle.

He was sure that when he was in the Massacre City, he had never met Bibi Dong.

In other words, she entered the Massacre City after him.

But how is this possible?

If Bibi Dong had entered before the last Soul Master Competition after him, she would have cleared the Massacre City in less than a year.

If she entered after the Soul Master Competition, it would have taken just over a year.

No matter what, this was a huge blow to him.

Because it had taken him a whole four years to complete that training!

But Bibi Dong spent just a little more than a year, at most.

Could he not be shaken?

"Death God's Domain…"

Even Tang Chen couldn't help but look at Bibi Dong in surprise.

It seems that this Saintess of the Martial Soul Hall has more than just talent and cultivation!

"You can't even defeat me, let alone challenge my younger brother!"

"How about I compete with you in his place?"

Bibi Dong looked at Tang Hao with contempt and spoke coldly.

"Hmph, it's him I want to challenge!"

Although he was shocked by Bibi Dong and knew she was definitely not weak, Tang Hao still refused directly.

He didn't want to argue with a woman.

Especially with this Bibi Dong, who is much smaller than him.

Gu Ziyi could still be argued that she is of the same age as him, but Bibi Dong couldn't!

That would make it look like he was bullying the younger!

"Senior Sister, it's alright, let me do this on my own!"

At this moment, Gu Ziyi comforted Bibi Dong and smiled slightly.

"Well, the younger brother should give you some judgment and let you know where the gap between you two lies!"

After hearing his comfort, Bibi Dong calmed down and put away the Death God's Domain.

The coldness brought by the Domain of the God of Death slowly dissipated.

"Okay!"

Gu Ziyi smiled and nodded, appearing very confident.

Tang Hao, who was in front of him, had an ugly expression upon hearing this.

He felt underestimated!

However, this also strengthened his resolve to defeat Gu Ziyi.

He wanted the two in front of him to know that he was no longer the same as before!

"Let's go, I see you can't wait any longer. In that case, I'll go out and have some activities with you!"

Then Gu Ziyi looked at Tang Hao and said with a smile.

That relaxed tone clearly highlighted how little he took Tang Hao's challenge seriously.

After Gu Ziyi finished speaking, he walked out directly.

"Annoying!"

Tang Hao snorted inwardly and immediately chased after him.

"Haha, in that case, my old rival, let's witness the performance of our two juniors!" Qian Daoliu also laughed this time and said to Tang Chen.

"Certainly!"

Tang Chen replied.

He also wanted to see how remarkable Gu Ziyi was, especially someone whom Tang Hao had always harbored thoughts of revenge against!
