Douluo: I Have an Unnamed Law

Chapter 342 The Founding of the Martial Soul Empire
In the period that followed, leaders of various factions, such as the Elephant Armor Sect, Holy Dragon Sect, Black Tiger Sect, Rock Antelope Sect, Wind Sword Sect, Fire Leopard Sect, Sparrow Bee Sect, the three major elemental families, and the four major single-attribute families, came to Gu Han.

Gu Han also met with each of them individually, explaining and discussing everything that needed to be said and discussed.

Overall, the major sects are quite easy to talk to, at least that's what Gu Han thinks.

As for what they really think, that doesn't matter.

However, Gu Han also clearly announced that after the establishment of the Martial Soul Empire, the selection of the new seven major sects would begin.

Although it is an empty title, some people like it, especially the original four lower sects and clans whose strength is close to that of the four lower sects.

At the same time, in their eyes, this is very likely the stepping stone to becoming one of the seven elders of the World Pavilion. With the title of one of the seven great sects, one's prestige in the soul master world will be very high, and it would not be surprising to become an elder.

Among them, Hu Yanzhen of the Elephant Armor Sect was eager to try his hand at it, full of confidence, feeling that he could definitely lead his sect to become one of the new top three sects.

January 1st is the first day of the year, also known as New Year's Day.

At this moment, heroes from all over the world gathered in Wuhun City. The area outside Wuhun Hall had been transformed into a huge square, which was bustling with activity, filled with both soul masters and ordinary people.

Standing on the high platform of the Spirit Hall were a group of Title Douluos of the Spirit Hall, as well as some Soul Douluos, and people of varying status in the Soul Master world, such as Ning Fengzhi and other representatives of major first-class forces.

Gu Han, dressed in a black dragon robe, surveyed the crowd below the platform with a majestic gaze.

The moment he appeared, almost all eyes were focused on Gu Han.

Gu Han looked at the prepared proclamation in his hand, channeled his powerful soul force, and conveyed his majestic and solemn voice.

"Today marks a moment in which the destiny of the mainland will be reshaped."

"During the thousands of years of rule of the Heavenly Dou Empire, the weak common people struggled to survive in shackles, the nobles abused their power for personal gain, levied exorbitant taxes, the people lived in misery, and the order had long been corrupt and rotten."

"And the angel God looked upon this dusty land, and out of compassion for the suffering of all beings, she sent down divine decrees to guide us toward light and glory."

"I, Gu Han, by the grace of the angels, have gathered the Soul Masters of the continent and established a title for the world: Martial Soul!"

"Under the banner of the Spirit Empire, all spirit masters will no longer be bound by their birth. We will completely break down class barriers, allowing the capable to rise to power, and letting the power of spirit masters truly flourish for the prosperity of the continent!"

"Whether they are geniuses from humble backgrounds or descendants of nobles, as long as they have piety towards the angels and loyalty to the people, they can write their own legend in this new world."

"Let us raise high the scepter of the angel God, with faith as our sword and loyalty as our shield, and together create a new world without strife or oppression."

"May the glory of the Angel God shine forever upon the Martial Soul Empire."

May the Martial Spirit Empire prosper forever!

"Long live the Spirit Empire! Long live the Angel God!"

"Long live the Spirit Empire! Long live the Angel God!!"

First, the leading figures of the Soul Master world standing above responded, followed by a thunderous roar from below, repeating "Long live the Spirit Empire! Long live the Angel God!"

The sounds rose and fell, continuing for a long time.

The group of titled Douluo standing above were also seeing such a grand spectacle for the first time. A sense of pride and arrogance rose in their hearts. Although they were not the main characters, they still felt a sense of pride and arrogance as they stood atop a high mountain, looking down upon all living beings.

As the cheers subsided, everyone stood on the Spirit Hall's high platform and bowed deeply to Gu Han, even the Title Douluo knelt on one knee.

"See your majesty, long live your majesty!"

The sound resounded throughout the heavens and earth, echoing endlessly like waves.

Gu Han waved his sleeve. "Rise."

After the founding address, the next step was to demonstrate the strength of the imperial army.

Although the cannons blasted open the gates of Xingluo City last time, and the muskets routed the Xingluo defenders, very few people still knew about the existence of firearms.

Firearms were not yet widespread throughout the army, so only firearms were displayed this time, while cannons were not shown.

The Martial Soul Empire dispatched only 10,000 soldiers this time, all of whom were the most elite Cloud Banner Army.

Ning Fengzhi's gaze was fixed on the guns in the hands of the Yunqi Army, his eyes flashing with a sharp light. Gu Han glanced at him and immediately saw through his thoughts, then secretly transmitted his voice.

"Sect Leader Ning, I know you are interested in firearms, but in order to maintain order in the Empire, no one outside the Empire is allowed to possess firearms. Anyone found doing so will be severely punished."

"This is clearly stipulated in the Imperial Law, and the law will be made public later. Sect Leader Ning can take a look when he has time."

Ning Fengzhi's heart tightened. He turned his head slightly to meet Gu Han's deep eyes, and nodded with a sincere smile to show that he understood.

After Gu Han's warning, Ning Fengzhi also gave up the idea of ​​firearms. Although he was very tempted, the current strength of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School was such that only the Martial Soul Empire and the Holy Church of the Evil Soul Masters could threaten it on the entire continent.

It would be a losing proposition to antagonize the powerful Martial Soul Empire over firearms.

Perhaps, in the future, the Spirit Empire will decline and its control over the Spirit Master world will gradually decrease. At that time, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School will request the Empire to allow them to use firearms for self-defense.

However, that's probably many years from now, and Ning Fengzhi certainly won't live to see that day.

The ceremony didn't end until sunset, but the crowd didn't disperse. The entire square was filled with singing and dancing, and dazzling fireworks lit up the night sky.

Qian Renxue and Gu Qiu'er, these two playful girls, naturally wouldn't miss out on the excitement tonight. The two mingled in the crowd and had a great time.

Gu Han and Bibi Dong sat on the high platform, their eyes fixed on the two lively figures below.

“Young people are really energetic.”

Bibi Dong sighed, thinking back to when she was the same age as him, the happy times when she dragged her junior brother around everywhere. Now, she was not only the Pope, but also the mother of two children. Time really flies.

Normally, the two little ones, Gu Nanfeng and Gu Shuangyue, are personally looked after by Bibi Dong. However, today is a special case, and they are being taken care of by the sword spirits Xue Di and A Yin. So there is nothing to worry about.

"Senior sister is getting sentimental," Gu Han teased with a smile. "Just a couple of days ago, she was playing pranks on Xue'er and Qiu'er like a little kid king."

Bibi Dong rolled her eyes at Gu Han, annoyed: "Go away, don't disturb my sentiments."

"Haha."

Gu Han smiled, and seeing Bibi Dong make a gesture as if to praise him, he quickly coughed lightly and turned his gaze to the three people sitting upright to the side: Shi Dong, Dongfang Lingyun, and Yun Ming.

"It's lively today, Shi Dong, why don't you take Ling Yun and Ming'er down and have some fun? Young people shouldn't be so listless."

"Uh, Master, actually we already..."

"Hey senior brother, let's go, let's take junior brother down for a stroll."

Shi Dong wanted to say that they had actually already returned from their stroll, but before he could finish speaking, Dongfang Lingyun interrupted him, grabbed one of them with each hand, and they vanished from the high platform in a flash.

Gu Han's lips curled up slightly; Ling Yun was still the most worry-free girl.
