Chapter 12: Tang Hao Breaks Through to Title Douluo
🕑 Added 2024-10-02 15:38:04 +0000 UTCIn the following days, the children continued living normally in Heaven Dou City.
Yang Zhentian, bought a large amount of whale gum at the auction and even went to the black market for more. As a result, people started looking at Yang Zhentian strangely, even Second Grandpa Yang Wushuang came to him, making Father feel deeply embarrassed.
Yang Podi and Niu Jinfeng secretly laughed at the situation, and Mother, Niu Jinfeng, also used some high-quality whale gum, which increased her spirit power by one level. She is now a level 64 Spirit Emperor.
However, what none of them knew was that a major event that would affect the whole world had already taken place.
In the Heaven Dou Empire, within the Fasno Province, an intense battle was currently raging.
Tang Hao, who had just reached level 90, was there with his wife, Ah Yin, and their newborn son, Tang San. Standing opposite them were Martial Soul Hall's Pope Qian Xunji, Chrysanthemum Douluo, and Ghost Douluo. Their goal was clearly Tang Hao's wife, Ah Yin, the hundred-thousand-year spirit beast, Blue Silver Emperor.
As in the original story, Ah Yin sacrificed herself for her husband and son. Tang Hao obtained a precious hundred-thousand-year spirit ring from his wife's sacrifice. With the boost from this spirit ring and the Clear Sky Sect's secret technique—Ring Explosion and the Great Sumeru Hammer—Tang Hao managed to defeat the three of them. In the process, he severely injured Qian Xunji, forcing the three to retreat.
Tang Hao had just entered the ranks of Title Douluo but managed to defeat three Title Douluo, including Qian Xunji, who was level 95 and possessed the god-level martial soul, Six-Winged Angel. This battle became one of the most famous cases of fighting beyond one's level in the entire Douluo Continent.
However, there was no true victor in this fight. Although Tang Hao emerged victorious, he lost his wife. Qian Xunji failed in his plan to hunt the spirit beast and returned to Martial Soul Hall, gravely injured.
On that day, while Yang Podi was having a meal with his parents, his second grandpa rushed into the room looking flustered. "Zhentian, something big has happened!"
Yang Zhentian, quickly asked, "Uncle, what happened? Why are you in such a hurry?"
"I just got the latest news. Martial Soul Hall's Pope, Qian Xunji, was gravely injured by Tang Hao and died after returning to Martial Soul Hall."
Father was shocked, "Uncle, how is this possible? Qian Xunji was a level 95 Title Douluo, and he was always accompanied by Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo. No matter how strong Tang Hao is, he couldn't have defeated all three of them."
Second Grandpa looked deeply concerned, "Martial Soul Hall also released a statement saying that Tang Hao has now advanced to Title Douluo. At just 44 years old, he has become the youngest Title Douluo in history."
Yang Zhentian, was very anxious, "Uncle, what should we do now? With the Pope dead, Martial Soul Hall will not take this lying down. Do we know where Tang Hao is now? Has he returned to the Clear Sky Sect?"
"We don't have any information on Tang Hao's whereabouts, and the entire Clear Sky Sect is on high alert right now."
"Uncle, should we return to the Breaking Clan?"
Yang Wushuang, glanced at Yang Podi and slowly calmed down. "No, we can't go back. Don't forget, we have over 50 children here. If we leave, what will happen to them?"
"But Uncle, if we don't go back, Father will be under a lot of pressure."
"No, Zhentian, you're wrong. The Breaking Clan is made up of spirit masters, and without the burden of children, they can fight better. And don't forget the mission your father gave to us."
Father was a bit anxious, "But what if Father is in danger?"
Second Grandpa's expression shifted between worry and determination before he finally said resolutely, "Zhentian, before we left, your father already had a bad feeling, probably sensing the danger. That's why he brought us and the children to Heaven Dou City."
"Our Breaking Clan is under the protection of the Clear Sky Sect. If the sect is in trouble, your father and the clan members are willing to sacrifice themselves. But these children are innocent. Our responsibility is to ensure they grow up and keep the Breaking Clan's bloodline alive."
"Uncle, what should we do now?"
"Zhentian, gather all the adults and call a meeting. From today onwards, no one is allowed to leave. We must be prepared for battle at any moment and increase security to ensure the safety of the children."
"Understood, Uncle. I'll make arrangements right away." With that, Father quickly left.
In the following days, all outings were canceled. The adults were assigned to patrol or stand guard, and it was ordered that no one could leave. All the adults were filled with anxiety, as if anticipating a storm. Still, they seemed to have confidence in the Clear Sky Sect.
Soon, different pieces of news started coming in.
First, they learned that Tang Hao had announced his departure from the Clear Sky Sect, which shocked the entire world.
Then, Martial Soul Hall declared that their Pope's disciple, the Holy Maiden Bibi Dong, would succeed Qian Xunji as the new Pope.
At the same time, Martial Soul Hall declared war on the Clear Sky Sect, with the new Pope Bibi Dong personally leading the charge, along with numerous elders and a large army of spirit masters. It seemed they would not rest until the Clear Sky Sect was destroyed, causing widespread fear throughout the spirit master world.
Next, it was reported that both the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan had sent their spirit master armies to the Clear Sky Sect. Even the sect masters of both clans had mobilized. The Heaven Dou Empire, led by Prince Xue Xing, had also sent an army toward the Clear Sky Sect.
It looked as if a large-scale battle between the four major forces could break out at any moment.
Meanwhile, inside the Clear Sky Sect, there was an atmosphere of deep unease. Sect Master Tang Zhen, his son Tang Xiao, and all the elders gathered, their faces heavy with worry.
Finally, Tang Zhen spoke, "Grand Elder, what's the situation outside?"
"Sect Master, things are not looking good. The new Pope, Bibi Dong, is leading the attack, and it's estimated that Martial Soul Hall has sent over 10,000 spirit masters, including at least six Title Douluo."
"The fact that they've sent so many people must mean they're going all in."
"Indeed. I've received information that Martial Soul Hall has recalled many of their spirit masters stationed across the continent."
"Has Qian Daoliu made a move?"
"So far, there's been no word of Qian Daoliu. It's likely that he's still deterred by our former Sect Master and won't act just yet."
"But his son was killed. He's bound to come eventually, and when he does, it will be real trouble."
"What about the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, and the Heaven Dou Empire? What's their status?"
"The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan, led by Sect Master Ning Fengzhi, along with Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo, are on their way with 1,000 spirit masters. The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan is being led by Sect Master Yu Yuanzhen, who is bringing 800 spirit masters. The Heaven Dou Empire is sending 50,000 troops under the command of Prince Xue Xing."
Tang Zhen's face was filled with worry, "Our Clear Sky Sect, including both the inner and outer sects, has roughly 4,000 spirit masters. Of those, 2,000 are from the inner sect, and the remaining 2,000 come from the single-attribute clans. Even with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, we'll only have 5,800 spirit masters, but Martial Soul Hall is sending 10,000. The difference in strength is still significant."
