Douluo: Starting with the Signing in of Goddess Xiaowu

After everyone rose up in unison, the Pangu Empress continued, "Today is the birth anniversary of our ancestor, Pangu Shidi, and it also marks the annual pilgrimage festival of the Middle Ancient Great World. We should be starting the pilgrimage ceremony immediately. However, before that, I have discussed with the Elders and we have all agreed that the Ancient Family has been without a Supreme Elder for too long since the departure of the Great Emperor Taicang. Therefore, today we will decide on a new Supreme Elder!"

Upon hearing this, the crowd became excited!

"Recently, the Fierce Beast Xuanmo wreaked havoc upon the Ancient Family, and it was Chu Qin who subdued Xuanmo!" the Pangu Empress declared.

"Chu Qin? Who is Chu Qin?"

"You don't know who Chu Qin is? Have you been in seclusion for too long?"

"Chu Qin is a peerless powerhouse who killed Xuanmo!"

At this moment, the Pangu Empress looked at Chu Qin and said, "Chu Qin, come forth!"

Chu Qin gave a slight smile and nodded, then teleported directly to the center of the square.

"So young!"

"Did he really kill Xuanmo all by himself?"

"So handsome!"

"Lord Chu Qin is so handsome, I think that Xuanmo didn't just get killed by him, but was probably charmed to death..."

Seeing the youthful and handsome figure of Chu Qin, the crowd started discussing animatedly.

"Additionally, Rutian, Sheng Lai, you seven Elders should step out as well..."

Rutian, Sheng Lai, and the others also rose from their Elder seats in unison. However, their faces revealed some discomfort, as they were seven old men and Chu Qin was just a young man.

But they were determined not to leave the position of Supreme Elder to an "outsider," so they did not care about their pride and teleported directly across from Chu Qin.

"Could it be that Chu Qin is going to fight against the seven Elders alone?"

"How could that be possible! The seven Elders are all Three Calamities Supreme Deities. Just how powerful is this Chu Qin?"

"Wait, aren't the seven Great Elders being a bit shameless?"

And at that moment, the Pangu Empress spoke again, "Since Chu Qin is an outsider to the Ancient Family, but the feat of killing Xuanmo is monumental, I have made a pact with Chu Qin. If he alone can defeat the seven Elders, then he may exceptionally be appointed as the Supreme Elder of the Ancient Family. Otherwise, the position of the Supreme Elder will be filled by a Great Elder from the Elder Council, Rutian Great Elder, if he prevails!"

"No wonder I don't recognize Chu Qin; he is indeed a powerful figure from outside the Ancient Family."

"When did such an impressive person emerge from the external universe?"

"No wonder the seven Elders need to fight one, so he's an outsider!"

"I still feel it's a bit unfair, but I support the Empress's decision..."

Once again, there was a mix of voices among the crowd.

At that moment, a golden light shone from the Empress's body, and the next moment, the entire sky turned completely golden, as if a golden lotus blossom had unfolded.

"To think we would have the chance to see the Empress in action!"

"Yes, it's been so many years since the Empress has made a move."

Not long after, amidst the golden lotus, a beam of golden light descended, and Chu Qin, along with the seven Great Elders, had vanished from their original places.

At the same moment, the golden light transformed into a source of illumination and quickly took on the appearance of a mirror-like object.

Within this mirror, one could see an endless array of stars winding about, with Chu Qin and the seven Great Elders all appearing in this extraordinary space.

"The Pirate Empress created a world?"

"I had heard long ago of the Pirate Empress's unparalleled strength! Seeing it today truly broadens my horizons!"

In the world within the mirror, Chu Qin calmly gazed at the seven Great Elders of the Ancient Family before him, his heart undisturbed by even a ripple.

"Chu Qin, if you concede now, we can let you become the Great Elder of the Elder Hall. What do you say?" Sheng Lai Elder asked, looking at Chu Qin.

"Not interested!" Chu Qin replied calmly, shaking his head, "If you're scared, feel free to drop out!"

"Very well, we've given you the chance!" Sheng Lai Elder said, his gaze sharp.

"Let's begin! I, along with everyone here, shall bear witness!" At that moment, the voice of the Pangu Empress entered this mirror universe, echoing like a celestial tone through the vast cosmos!

Upon hearing this, Sheng Lai and the other seven from Ru Tian exchanged a glance, and then Sheng Lai and Ru Tian took a step back, while the remaining five Great Elders positioned themselves in front of them.

"Chu Qin, let me, an old man, be the first to experience your capabilities!" One of the elders, with a fierce tiger engraved on his forehead, spoke up. This man was the fifth ranked Great Elder from the Ancient Family, Martial Emperor Wuhu!

No sooner had he finished speaking than the Martial Emperor began to grow tremendously in stature until he was a million feet tall.

"Come on!" Chu Qin smiled faintly, his body instantly covered by golden thunder. The Thunder Emperor Holy Body and Lei Zi Secret Method manifested at this moment. At the same time, his body also grew to match the height of the Martial Emperor!

"Supreme Divine Art: Tiger Emperor Destruction of the World!" As the Martial Emperor unleashed this move, a terrible roar of a tiger resounded, along with an endless outpour of energy from his body. His robust body transformed into visible tiger skin, and ultimately the Martial Emperor turned into a semi-tiger being!

"Martial Emperor is the only one among the Ancient Family's elders who cultivates his body to the level of the Three Calamities Supreme Deity," Yuè Yīnà explained to Xiaowu and the others, "his power is incredibly fierce. Legend has it that he once punched a star into pieces!"

"A contest of the flesh? Alright, I'll match you!" Facing the Tiger Emperor charging at him through the air, Chu Qin did not use any Supreme Divine Artifacts or other methods but confronted the Tiger Emperor's tiger fist directly with his Thunder Emperor Holy Body, enhanced by the Qinglong Bloodline.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!" It was as if stars were colliding; all that could be heard was a deafening blast that shook everyone's eardrums, as the fist wrapped in Chu Qin's thunder clashed head-on with the Martial Emperor's.

Visible ripples spread out from the impact, causing onlookers from outside the mirror to gasp in shock!

However, it was evident that the Martial Emperor held the advantage. With brute force alone, he began to overpower Chu Qin, pushing him back steadily.

"Chu Qin is actually losing!" the crowd exclaimed in surprise at the sight.

"Martial Emperor is a pure physical cultivator. Even the Pirate Empress would lose in a battle of the body against him. It's not surprising. However, what surprises me is that Chu Qin seems to have the strength of only a Second Calamity Supreme God," a Second Calamity Supreme God powerhouse said with some confusion.

Not just him, but other Second Calamity Supreme Gods too, after sensing Chu Qin's true power, were astonished.

And the Pirate Empress, her eyebrows slightly furrowed. It was the first time she had truly witnessed Chu Qin's power, and indeed, he didn't seem like a Heavenly Tribulation-level fighter!

"Chu Qin, I thought you were powerful, but as it turns out, you only managed to kill Xuan Mo by taking shortcuts!" Martial Emperor said as he kept overpowering Chu Qin.

"Beat him, beat him hard!" Yan Donghuang said fiercely. This Chu Qin was not human, nearly stripping their Yan Family bare. Just those two Supreme Divine Artifacts broke his heart!

"Kill him!" Dian Taiyi appeared to be even more ruthless. Chu Qin had not only taken his two Supreme Divine Artifacts, but also a multitude of miraculous treasures!

However, as the Martial Emperor and others doubted, they saw visible red lights emerging on Chu Qin's body, and simultaneously, Chu Qin's hair turned blood red.
