"The same Spirit Luo San Pao, the same young clan leader of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, and the same innate half-spirit power."
"However, whether it was from his appearance, demeanor, or personal temperament."
"This man named Yu Chen and Yu Xiaogang were clearly two different types."
"Although he was also the young clan leader of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, Yu Chen was clearly more amiable in his dealings with others and was more beloved by his clansmen."
"It was also because of this that after it was discovered that his awakened Spirit was actually the mutated Spirit Luo San Pao."
"Yu Chen was not ridiculed by his clansmen; instead, they gathered around him immediately, all offering words of comfort."
""There are no useless Spirits, only useless Spirit Masters. Everyone, please don't worry. I will not be disheartened by this."
""Moreover, I don't think Luo San Pao is as useless as everyone imagines. A Spirit with sentience—how could it be a useless Spirit?"
""Perhaps it is due to the influence of my innate spirit power, which prevents it from fully evolving."
""It's not that it held me back; rather, I held it back."
"As he spoke, he reached out and rubbed Luo San Pao's forehead."
""Humph~ Humph~"
"Feeling his caress."
"Luo San Pao rolled on the ground."
"Then it kept grunting and snorting."
"As if proudly assuring Yu Chen that it would definitely not disappoint him."
"..."
""A useless Spirit, yet you've come this far. I believe no one is more suitable than you to become the clan leader of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan!""
""That's right, Young Master Yu Chen, we humbly request Young Master Yu Chen to take over the position of clan leader!!""
""Please, Young Master Yu Chen, strengthen our Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan!""
""Indeed, please, Young Master Yu Chen, strengthen our Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan!!""
"All the clan elders knelt simultaneously, their voices like thunder!"
""This...""
"Yu Chen stood still, dressed in a white robe, appearing somewhat hesitant."
"He looked up, subconsciously casting his gaze towards Yu Yuanzhen not far away."
"He saw his father, the current clan leader of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, also looking at him with expectant eyes, nodding as he spoke."
""Accept it, Chen'er, no one is more suitable than you.""
"..."
""From today onwards, Luo San Pao, you are no longer a useless Spirit, but the Golden Sacred Dragon Luo San Pao! No, it should be the Bright Sacred Dragon Luo San Pao!""
"Looking at the giant dragon body flying above the sky."
"Yu Chen's eyes were filled with doting affection."
"..."
""Yu Chen, don't think that just because you are the future clan leader of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, you can put on airs in front of my Spirit Hall!""
""If you continue to block Bibi Dong, do you believe I won't kill you too?!""
""I'll ask you one last time, will you retreat!?""
"Level 95 attack system Titled Douluo Qian Xunji, with his full power unleashed. The terrifying pressure created by his two yellow, two purple, and five black spirit rings enveloped the entire scene!"
"However, this time, facing Qian Xunji's warning, Yu Chen's expression did not change in the slightest. His words remained forceful and impactful."
""No retreat!""
""Dong'er is willing to give up her position as Spirit Hall Holy Maiden for me, so I naturally cannot disappoint her!""
""Since we cannot be born on the same day, month, and year, I am willing to die with Dong'er on the same day, month, and year!""
""Qian Xunji, just draw your sword! No matter what you say today, if you want to touch Dong'er, even a single hair, you'll have to step over my corpse first!""
"As his words fell, he directly drew the long sword from his waist, pointing it straight at Spirit Hall's Supreme Pontiff Qian Xunji!"
"..."
""Is that all your strength amounts to?""
"Before Jialing Pass."
"A young man knelt, covered in blood, yet still proclaiming himself a representative of justice."
"Seeing him like this, Yu Chen looked down from above, a hint of mockery appearing on his face."
""What a joke, representing justice?""
""So, nobility means justice, right? So, commoner Spirit Masters are naturally meant to be trampled underfoot by the Seven Great Sects?""
""You say my Spirit Hall is cruel and bloodthirsty, but that's because you simply don't understand my Spirit Hall.""
""Only Spirit Hall offers the greatest hope for commoner Spirit Masters to advance.""
""This is also why so many Spirit Masters gathered and responded when my Spirit Hall established its Empire.""
""It's a pity you won't get to see the true prosperity of Spirit Hall.""
"Yu Chen sighed after speaking, then waved his hand, effortlessly taking the life of the young man with the Eight Spider Lances external Spirit Bone. It was as if he had merely done a trivial thing."
"..."
"The next moment, the scene shifted."
"He appeared before a resplendent throne."
"Holding the Supreme Pontiff's scepter and wearing a crown, he slowly sat down."
"As his figure sat down, the Titled Douluo below all knelt in unison, shouting loudly."
""Greetings, First Emperor!""
""Greetings, First Emperor!!""
"At this point, Spirit Hall successfully reformed into the Spirit Empire, unifying the entire Douluo Continent."
"Above the original Supreme Pontiff Palace, the Nine-Clawed Bright Sacred Dragon, transformed from the Spirit Luo San Pao, soared into the sky!"
"Its entire body of dragon scales, under the sunlight, refracted a brilliant radiance like glazed glass."
"It shone like a great sun."
"At this moment, it let out a long roar, its sound traveling for thousands of miles."
"Resounding throughout the entire Douluo Continent."
"..."
"The scene finally came to an abrupt halt, completely fading into darkness."
"However, even though the scene had ended."
"The entire Douluo Continent remained silent."
"For no other reason."
"But that the content displayed on these two heavenly curtains this time was too shocking for them."
"Leaving everyone in silence for a moment."
"Wanting to say something."
"But this time, they didn't know how to begin."
"Of course, this silence didn't last long."
"When everyone came back to their senses, the entire Douluo Continent erupted."
"Especially within the territory of Spirit Hall."
"Thinking of the final scene where Supreme Pontiff Bibi Dong met her demise."
"Everyone found it incredibly unbelievable."
""How is this possible? Spirit Hall, how could it lose?""
""Who could possibly have such immense strength, that even His Holiness the Supreme Pontiff was no match for him in the end?""
""Is that the main focus right now? It should be the relationship between His Holiness the Supreme Pontiff and that Yu Xiaogang.""
""Yes, from the snippets on the screen, it seems our Supreme Pontiff and this Yu Xiaogang had a very unusual relationship when they were young, like lovers, but then they were separated by the previous Supreme Pontiff?""
""Silence!""
""You kid, are you trying to die? You dare say anything. This is within Spirit Hall territory; how dare you speak ill of His Holiness the Supreme Pontiff here!?""
""Ah? I didn't say anything, and you didn't hear anything.""
"Hearing the reprimand from the person beside him."
"The person who had just spoken immediately shut up."
"The group of onlookers who had gathered also scattered like birds and beasts."
"Of course, although the crowd dispersed, their gaze remained fixed on the heavenly curtain above, unwavering."
"Clearly, the confusion still lingered in their hearts."
"The entire Spirit Hall was in a state of unease."
"In the center of the Supreme Pontiff Palace, upon the Supreme Pontiff's throne."
"Bibi Dong naturally knew what everyone was thinking."
"However, at this moment, she had no time to concern herself with how the outside world viewed this."
"At this moment, Bibi Dong's entire attention was on the light screen in the sky."
"Recalling the scene on the right light screen where Yu Chen stood before her, pointing his sword at Qian Xunji."
"Her eyes were now filled with extreme complexity."
"Lowering her head, she couldn't help but murmur softly."
""Not seeking to live together, but only to die together… Xiaogang, if only you had half of Yu Chen's steadfastness and determination back then, why would you and I have ended up in this state today…?""
