Douluo: Bibi Dong Abandons, Snow Empress Raises to Adulthood

As Tang Hao watched the soul rings rising behind Xue Tianyu, his eyes widened in shock!

He himself already had a full set of rings, plus an additional red one. In terms of combat strength, he believed there was no one on the entire continent stronger than him.

Yet today, he was witnessing something completely unexpected.

Eight red and one gold...

Especially that final golden soul ring—Tang Hao could feel the immense pressure emanating from it, even from where he stood.

Compared to this, just in terms of soul rings alone, he was already being completely outclassed.

His fists clenched tightly, and it took a great effort to suppress the shock in his heart.

Losing confidence before a fight was a grave mistake.

Besides, as the Clear Sky Douluo, Tang Hao had fought countless battles.

He had encountered plenty of so-called flashy but impractical Titled Douluos before, and he had taught them a lesson every time.

So while he was stunned by the young man's terrifying soul ring configuration, he still believed he could win.

However, he hadn't been present earlier and hadn't seen Xue Tianyu's soul rings until now.

He had only just arrived.

Xue Tianyu's soul rings were utterly monstrous.

But Tang Hao felt that at the very least, his secret techniques would allow him to take down this icy young man.

"Father?"

This was the first time Tang San had ever seen his father's soul rings. They were certainly powerful, but... they didn't seem as terrifying as Xue Tianyu's.

Though he felt worried, Ning Rongrong, on the other hand, was extremely excited.

"Brother San, why didn't you tell me earlier? So your father is the Clear Sky Douluo!"

Tang San was a little puzzled.

"Clear Sky Douluo? Is that supposed to be impressive?"

At his and Ning Rongrong's current level, they weren't yet capable of distinguishing the power gaps between different Titled Douluos.

After all, they hadn't reached that stage yet.

To them, both Tang Hao and Xue Tianyu were simply Titled Douluos, nothing more.

"Of course he's strong!"

Ning Rongrong had heard of the Clear Sky Douluo's name since she was a child. "Clear Sky Douluo is a symbol of true power!"

"Hmm…" Tang San had never seen his father fight before. In his memories, Tang Hao had always just been a blacksmith.

So now, hearing from someone else that his father was incredibly strong, he couldn't help but feel a bit unreal.

"Don't you know the title of His Excellency Clear Sky?" Ning Rongrong became more animated. "Ordinary Titled Douluos get absolutely crushed by him! He can easily hang them up and beat them!"

In their minds, Xue Tianyu was still just a regular Titled Douluo.

So didn't that mean the Clear Sky Douluo, Tang Hao, could effortlessly destroy him?

Hearing that his father had been hiding his strength so deeply, Tang San suddenly saw hope.

'If Father is this powerful, then saving Xiao Wu should be possible!'

Tang San looked at the broad shoulders in front of him, feeling a bit more reassured.

He had always believed that while others grew up under the protection of Titled Douluos, he had started from a tragic beginning, forced to rely on himself for everything.

But now, looking at the situation, wasn't he actually the one with the hidden advantage?

Meanwhile, hearing Ning Rongrong's enthusiastic praise behind him, Tang Hao felt quite pleased.

'That's right, I am His Excellency Clear Sky! What Titled Douluo haven't I beaten?'

The young man in front of him was simply about to become his next defeated opponent.

"Young man, you're still quite young. Let Xiao Wu go, and we'll leave."

Tang Hao's expression was arrogant. "Otherwise, consider your options carefully. If we fight, I won't hold back."

As a renowned veteran powerhouse, there was no reason for him to fear anyone!

His meaning was clear—if he struck, the best-case scenario would be crippling Xue Tianyu's cultivation, while the worst would be outright killing him.

Tang Hao's confidence spread to Tang San and Ning Rongrong, making them unconsciously puff out their chests.

However, Xue Tianyu merely sneered.

"Fine. If you want to fight, then let's fight."

...

Inside a hotel room at Tianshui Academy.

Seeing how arrogant Tang Hao was, Xue Di felt a bit uneasy.

"That's a Titled Douluo..."

"It's fine." Bing Di reached out her delicate hand, wrapping it around Xue Di's snow-white arm and pressing her soft body close. "In comparison, Tianyu's strength is greater."

"I know…" Xue Di sighed. "I'm just worried about Tianyu's lack of real combat experience."

"He's so well-behaved, so kind. He's barely ever fought."

Her blue eyes shimmered with worry, her chest rising and falling along with her tense emotions.

"True…"

Bing Di glanced at Xue Di's full, undulating curves, then looked down at her own flat chest and let out a long sigh.

Then, she withdrew her gaze and fell into thought.

Xue Tianyu's raw strength was certainly overwhelming, but what he lacked was real battle experience.

This Clear Sky Douluo could serve as a stepping stone for him.

"Let Tianyu fight him. We'll be ready to support him at any time."

Bing Di had already made up her mind.

Even if Xue Tianyu couldn't win, he would at least gain experience.

If he started losing, she figured they could step in at any moment and take over the battle.

Xue Di nodded. She completely agreed with Bing Di's plan.

Right now, they couldn't intervene directly.

Otherwise, Xue Tianyu wouldn't be able to refine his combat skills, and he would end up as someone with immense power but no way to use it effectively—a frustrating situation.

At least now, they were here to watch over him. But what if, in the future, he encountered an even stronger opponent while alone?

Xue Di narrowed her eyes, and a delicate ice flower bloomed in her palm, spinning lightly.

"For now, let's watch Tianyu's performance."

"If necessary, I will step in."

"No one can harm Tianyu—including Bibi Dong! If needed, I will personally teach her a lesson, make her understand the consequences of abandoning her child!"

Bing Di hugged Xue Di's arm.

"And I'll be right there with you!"

The two women looked out the window, ready to step in at any moment.

...

At this moment, just as Tang Hao and Xue Tianyu stood facing each other, the sound of light footsteps suddenly echoed from nearby.

It was already late at night, and logically speaking, there shouldn't be many people around.

Although Ning Rongrong's shouting earlier had drawn in quite a crowd, most had already left.

The street was gradually becoming quiet again.

Which made this particular set of footsteps stand out even more.

And from the sound alone, it was clear—it was a young woman.

"Tianyu?"

Before the person even arrived, the voice did.

Xue Tianyu was momentarily stunned.

That was Qian Renxue's voice.

'Why is she here?'

Before he could even think further, Qian Renxue had already rounded the corner and stepped into view.

She was dressed in a golden palace gown, clearly something she had changed into at Spirit Hall—after all, her previous outfit had been tainted with Yu Xiaogang's filthy blood.

This gown was a single-piece ensemble, woven entirely with gold thread, without excessive patterns or decorations.

The design made Qian Renxue look dignified and elegant.

The high collar covered her slender, snow-white neck, while her delicate arms emerged from the sleeves. The gentle curves of her chest and the graceful lines of her figure exuded an unparalleled beauty.

Her exquisite features, framed by her golden hair, appeared even more striking.

The moment she appeared, she instantly captured everyone's attention.

The few remaining spectators, who had yet to leave, found themselves completely mesmerized by her stunning looks and breathtaking figure.

"Eight red… one gold?"

The moment Qian Renxue stepped forward, her gaze locked onto the radiant golden glow behind Xue Tianyu.

This gold hue made even the red soul rings seem dim in comparison.

Even she had never seen a golden soul ring before.
