**Chapter 94: Level 40? Yu Xiaogang Completely Breaks Down**
"Gu Ziyi?"
"How is this possible? That person is actually Gu Ziyi?"
"How could he join the Spirit Hall Team?"
"This is impossible… his current spirit power level cannot be higher than mine..."
"Impossible, absolutely impossible. I must have heard wrong..."
"..."
Hearing the name Gu Ziyi, Yu Xiaogang was so shocked he couldn't believe his ears.
In his heart, he had always been convinced that he would be the first soul master to break the limitations of level 30 with an innate spirit power of level 1.
"Level 40 Soul Ancestor; Martial Soul – Talisman; Support-type Soul Master!"
However, no matter how unbelievable it seemed to Yu Xiaogang, the host revealed Gu Ziyi's basic information.
Whoosh~
Simultaneously, his image and basic details were displayed on the giant screens on both sides of the arena.
This confirmed once and for all that it was indeed Gu Ziyi.
"Level 40 Soul Ancestor?"
"No... this can't be real, I don't believe it..."
Yu Xiaogang, who had already been skeptical that Gu Ziyi could join the Golden Generation Team, could no longer deceive himself after seeing Gu Ziyi's basic information displayed publicly.
He even exclaimed in disbelief at that moment.
Luckily, although his reaction was somewhat exaggerated, no one paid much attention to him because everyone else was just as stunned to see Gu Ziyi's basic information.
"Level 40 Soul Ancestor?"
"Isn't the second disciple of the Pope known for having only level 1 innate spirit power?"
"Yes, I remember that correctly…"
"What a remarkable person; he actually reached level 40 Soul Ancestor with just level 1 spirit power..."
"This not only breaks the impossibility of level 1 innate spirit power surpassing level 30 but also proves it can advance to level 40 Soul Ancestor…"
"Incredible, how did he achieve this?"
"No one in history has ever done this before…"
"The Pope's second disciple has set a historical precedent!"
"..."
Everyone was stunned and began discussing this in amazement. All were surprised that Gu Ziyi had broken through the level 30 bottleneck for soul masters with innate spirit power of level 1.
Moreover, not only had Gu Ziyi broken through, but he had also directly advanced to level 40 Soul Ancestor.
Reaching level 40 proves that Gu Ziyi can continue cultivating in the future. No one knows how far he will progress, but his achievement of breaking the level 30 bottleneck will surely go down in history.
"Level 40? That boy actually broke through to level 40..."
"How is this possible?"
Tang Hao, too, couldn't believe it upon hearing about Gu Ziyi's spirit power level.
Since Bai Lu had kept her promise not to disclose Gu Ziyi's level, Tang Hao only found out now.
Furthermore, during their previous encounter, Tang Hao had paid little attention to Gu Ziyi, remembering only vaguely that the boy hadn't shown his martial soul or spirit rings.
Thus, he was genuinely taken aback when he learned of the boy's current spirit power level.
"The last member of the Spirit Hall Team, like His Highness Gu Ziyi, is also one of the Pope's disciples and the Holy Maiden of our Spirit Hall!"
As everyone was still reeling from Gu Ziyi's level revelation, the host announced the final member of the Spirit Hall Team.
The moment the words were spoken, everyone looked in shock at the last figure in the Spirit Hall Team.
"The Holy Maiden is also competing?"
"Bibi Dong is only 15 years old, isn't she?"
"What could the Holy Maiden's spirit power level be? Why hasn't the host announced it yet?"
"..."
All eyes were now on Bibi Dong. Complaints arose that the host hadn't yet revealed her spirit power level.
Whoosh~
However, the host didn't have to say anything. Bibi Dong's basic information was soon displayed on the screens on both sides of the arena.
"What?"
"Level 52 Soul King?"
"Did I read that right?"
"How is this possible..."
"She's only 15 years old?"
"A Soul King at 15? Surely this must be some kind of joke?"
"..."
The moment they saw Bibi Dong's information, the audience was stunned beyond belief.
While many had guessed her spirit power level wouldn't be low, none could have imagined it being this high.
At just 15 years old, Bibi Dong was already a level 52 Soul King—a feat that shattered all expectations.
For many, achieving Soul King at age 20 was already the mark of a genius.
Bibi Dong's achievement was almost monstrous.
"Level 52 Soul King…"
"So it really is Bibi Dong…"
Yu Xiaogang, having barely adjusted to the shock of Gu Ziyi breaking through to level 40, was now confronted with the confirmation of Bibi Dong as the last member of the team.
He had suspected it might be her, given her innate full spirit power and twin martial souls.
If she was cultivating both martial souls simultaneously, it would explain her accelerated growth.
"If you are cultivating both martial souls simultaneously, that's a foolish decision!"
"The best approach for twin martial souls is to fully develop one first, then focus on the other after reaching Titled Douluo. That's the correct way to cultivate twin martial souls…"
"If you don't solve the drawbacks of twin martial souls and cultivate both simultaneously, aren't you afraid of exploding from excess energy, like others before you?"
Yu Xiaogang scoffed at what he considered Bibi Dong's recklessness.
But despite his disdain, bitterness crept into his heart.
"Oh, if only I had her talent!"
He fantasized about what he could achieve with such potential, certain he would cultivate more wisely.
Yet, no matter how hard he tried, Gu Ziyi's breakthrough haunted his thoughts.
"Eh… ah… Oh!"
"This might actually be a good thing…"
"Yes, this is a good thing. It proves that level 1 innate spirit power can surpass level 30. Not only that, it can even reach level 40..."
"If he can do it, so can I..."
Yu Xiaogang quickly adjusted his mindset, viewing Gu Ziyi's achievement as proof of his own potential.
"That's right. If he can, I definitely can too!"
His spirits lifted, Yu Xiaogang was filled with newfound hope for his future.
