Douluo: Twins of Fate

Chapter 306 Trading Minerals for Technology

Seeing the emperor of the largest empire among the three kingdoms of Douluo Continent bow to him, Xuanzi showed no surprise. He calmly said to Xu Jiawei, "I already know about this matter!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Jiawei looked up and asked, "So, what does the academy mean...?"

Xuanzi reassured him, "Your Majesty, there is no need to panic. As the protector of the three kingdoms that originally belonged to the Douluo Continent, the academy will naturally help the Star Luo Empire reclaim its lost territory!"

Upon hearing Xuanzi's words, Xu Jiawei breathed a sigh of relief. He quickly said to Xuanzi and Daming, "Please, both of you..."

He personally led the two to the court, invited them to take their seats, and then returned to his own seat.

After sitting down, Xu Jiawei felt much more confident!
Xuanzi sat down and looked at Xu Jiawei, saying to him, "Your Majesty, please tell us the next arrangements for the Star Luo Empire so that we can cooperate."

Xu Jiawei nodded, making no attempt to conceal anything, and laid out the details of the Star Luo Empire's upcoming troop mobilization. After listening, Xuanzi nodded slightly and said, "The Academy's Soul Guidance Department will provide support to the Star Luo Empire, and the Dean of the Martial Soul Department, Yan Shaozhe, will also accompany the team to provide support!"

Upon hearing Xuanzi's words, Xu Jiawei's expression brightened, but soon his expression became conflicted again, and he hesitated, saying, "Elder Xuan! I have a favor to ask..."

Seeing Xu Jiawei's troubled expression, Xuanzi said, "Your Majesty, please speak."

"I hope... that Shrek Academy's Soul Guidance Department can provide the Star Luo Empire with advanced Soul Guidance technology! Of course, we will not let the academy make a sacrifice for nothing! The academy can have the right to mine all resources within the Star Luo Empire!"

Xu Jiawei stated his request and what he would exchange it for!
The Star Luo Empire is the largest empire besides the Sun Moon Empire, and it also has many valuable mineral deposits! To be honest, Shrek Academy's soul guidance technology is definitely not worth this price, but Xu Jiawei has no other choice at the moment!

The Star Luo Empire's soul tool technology reaches a maximum of level seven, and even their level seven soul tools should be classified as level six by the standards of the Sun Moon Empire!
The backwardness of soul guidance technology meant that the Star Luo Empire's army was simply unable to put up an effective resistance against the Sun Moon Empire's army, and could only rely on the high-end Title Douluo combat power to maintain the balance between the two sides!
If this situation continues, the final result will be like the breach of Yuming Pass, where there will be no possibility of resisting the Sun Moon Empire's army in the entire border area.

When the court officials heard that Xu Jiawei wanted to exchange the mining rights of the entire country for it, they were all unwilling.

Xuanzi's face lit up with joy, but he quickly suppressed his smile and said to Xu Jiawei, "Your Majesty is too kind! The academy will not stand idly by and watch the Star Luo Empire fall into trouble! As for the soul guidance technology, I will have Lin'er prepare it as soon as I return! As for the mineral resources... we'll talk about it later."

Although Xuanzi's expression changed quickly, Xu Jiawei still saw the fleeting joy on his face and sighed helplessly.

The Star Luo Empire's backwardness in soul guidance technology has left it with virtually no bargaining power with Shrek Academy.

Not long after Xuanzi and the others returned to Shrek Academy, an envoy from the Heavenly Soul Empire arrived at the academy, requesting the help of the Great Ming Dynasty. After Xueyu was killed by Jiang Qingtong, the entire Heavenly Soul Empire was thrown into chaos!
Xue Yu was already the only Super Douluo powerhouse the Heavenly Soul Empire could boast of. After his death, the entire empire was left with only an elderly level 97 Super Douluo to maintain its prestige. This Super Douluo was already two hundred years old, and his remaining time was running out. Although many ancient sects chose to cooperate with the Heavenly Soul Empire, the combat power they could provide was limited. They had Title Douluos, but not a single Super Douluo!

Therefore, the envoy from the Heavenly Soul Empire came to request that the Great Ming Dynasty once again grant them the protection of the Sea God's power, so that they could once again possess the combat power of a Limit Douluo!

Seeing the envoy's pleading expression, Da Ming frowned slightly and said, "The power of a Limit Douluo is virtually invincible in this world, except for the gods! Your prince, with this power, should have been able to keep the Sun Moon Empire outside Yuming Pass! But his arrogance has led to the current defeat! And you still have the nerve to ask for new protection?"

The envoy immediately knelt on the ground, weeping bitterly: "Your Majesty Tianqing! Please have pity on us... With the passing of the Prince, the Heavenly Soul Empire truly has no one left to fight!"

Da Ming gazed at the envoy kneeling before him, kowtowing and pleading, and sighed. He recalled the era of the Heavenly Dou Empire ten thousand years ago, an era when the Heavenly Dou Empire was full of talented people. How could it have become like this now!
Despite their lamentations, the Ming Dynasty knew that the Heavenly Soul Empire could not simply give up and was still needed to defend its long northern border and contain the Sun Moon Empire's attacks from the north!

Da Ming took out the Sea God's Power of Protection that had returned to his hand and said, "Take it! Remember, only someone at the Super Douluo level can absorb its power, otherwise, they will be seriously injured at best, and die at worst!"

The envoy was moved to tears, kowtowed to the Ming Dynasty, and left with profuse thanks.

He wasn't worried about the power of the Sea God falling into the hands of others. This was the power of a god, and only Tang San was qualified to decide who to entrust it to. He was merely passing it on on behalf of the deity.

However, not long after the envoys from the Heavenly Soul Empire left, the envoys from the Douling Empire hurriedly visited Shrek Academy and brought bad news: they discovered that a Soul Master Corps from the Sun Moon Empire had infiltrated the Douling Empire and even attacked Lingdou City!
At that time, the Douling royal family was holding their annual grand gathering. If it weren't for Tianyang Douluo, the entire royal family would probably have been wiped out!

"Where is he? Has he been caught?" Xuanzi asked, frowning.

The envoy shook his head and said, "No! They moved very quickly. If their attack failed, they didn't linger and immediately fled! Every one of them is a Soul Master. According to Tianyang Douluo's judgment, these people are probably the Beast King-level Soul Master Corps of the Sun Moon Empire!"

"Isn't the Beast King-level Soul Master Corps supposed to be at Yuming Pass? How did they suddenly cross the Heavenly Soul Empire and the Star Luo Empire and arrive at the Douling Empire?" Old Song frowned, deep in thought.

Xuanzi remained calm and said, "The Sun Moon Empire has five Beast King-level Soul Master Corps, while Yuming Pass seems to only have two?"

"These people have penetrated deep into the Douling Empire without any support! How dare they?" Elder Song was even more incredulous. Who came up with this tactic? If they're not careful, these people will be subjected to a unified encirclement and annihilation from the three kingdoms!

No matter how strong they are, they are only a few hundred or a thousand men. How can they stop an army of a million?
