Douluo Dalu: The Eyes That Defy Fate

Chapter 270 Di Tian's Verdict

Just as Xuanzi and his companion were feeling dizzy, a titled Douluo who was making a lot of noise in the hall happened to turn his gaze to the doorway and saw them.

He immediately fell silent and stood straight in place.

The other Title Douluos who were still arguing also noticed his unusual behavior and looked in the direction of the gate.

They all followed in his footsteps.

There was no other way; no matter how down on their luck Shrek Academy was, it was still the only force in the Douluo Continent with a level 98 Super Douluo, and they couldn't afford to be disrespectful in the slightest.

Moreover, without the constraints of material possessions, no one knows whether they might fly into a rage over a trivial matter.

However, the fact that the Azure Shadow Douluo is pregnant seems to be a variable.

With everyone preoccupied with their own thoughts, the hall was no longer as chaotic as before, and enjoyed a rare moment of peace.

Seeing that they had been discovered, Xuanzi and Lin Huiqun no longer hesitated and strode into the large reception room, ready to have a good chat with these younger generation members.

After everyone was seated, Wu San, the host, chuckled and retreated to the front door, showing no intention of staying.

"Now that you seniors have met, I shall take my leave so as not to disturb your important discussions."

If needed, simply press the button on the right, and an attendant will come.

After saying that, Wu San walked out of the hall without looking back, leaving many titled Douluo who were unaware of the situation looking at each other in confusion.

As if suddenly remembering something, the more cunning individuals secretly glanced at Xuanzi and Lin Huiqun, who sat in the main seats with indifferent expressions.

An idea spontaneously arose in their minds.

It seems that the leader of the Spirit Soul Merchant Guild and Shrek Academy are not as harmonious as the rumors suggest.

Such a scene of usurping the host's place should not have occurred in the Spirit Soul Merchant Guild, much less in front of these people.

Most importantly, the dust on Wu San's body was clearly freshly picked up not long ago.

Furthermore, given that he personally invited the Shrek elders, some of the details are quite easy to guess!

Holy crap?! Could it be that Shrek's idea of ​​"using a hen to lay eggs" actually worked?

It shouldn’t be!

They had some contact with Wu San, and with such a shrewd mind, he certainly wouldn't let Shrek Academy bully him.

So he must have some ulterior motive!

However, no one could guess what the purpose was.

Before those who were interested could delve deeper into the matter, Xuanzi's slightly impatient voice rang out, forcing them to stop thinking.

"Youngsters, tell me everything that's happening on the high seas. Don't try to deceive me, or else..."

As soon as he finished speaking, all the Title Douluos except Lin Huiqun twitched their lips.

That damn old bastard, he's so incredibly rude! If I could beat him, I would have torn that lousy mouth of yours to shreds.

But they couldn't win, and no matter how angry and unwilling they were, they could only obey Xuanzi's orders and tell him everything they knew.

Besides, they bowed down because of the disappearance of soul beasts, a matter of life and death for all soul masters. It's not shameful to say that.

However, in just a short while, the last glimmer of hope in their hearts turned into utter despair.

After all, no one had ever imagined that these two old men, who had lived for over two hundred years, were not even as good as them, who were over a hundred years old.

After merely hearing what the sea had seen, he immediately fell into a near-mad monologue, unable to offer them any response.

The crowd waited for a long time, but Xuanzi and the other person still did not return to normal.

Left with no other choice, they all got up and went to find Wu San, then bid farewell and left the Spirit Soul Merchant Guild.

On the other hand, Wu San was not surprised at all after learning about Shrek's reaction.

It's because those old fogies have always put so-called glory first, and in extreme cases, they can even disregard life and death.

Now that the soul beasts are gone, it cuts off the path forward for other soul masters.

But in their eyes, that's equivalent to losing glory and faith; it's no wonder they go mad.

Moreover, those high-ranking officials regarded the child in Song Yunzhi's womb as the hope for Shrek's future revival.

Before the child was even born, they were suddenly told that the child could not cultivate.

It's not surprising that the combination of these two factors could lead to such a change in them.

"Old man, don't despair too soon, or the master will be very disappointed!"

As the muttering faded, a sinister glint flashed in Wu San's eyes, sending chills down Zhang Peng's spine as he watched from the shadows. Just as Zhang Peng was wondering how to comfort his brother who had just been wronged, he heard Wu San suddenly turn the conversation to him.

"Brother Zhang, what's the situation with the evil soul masters on Douluo Continent?"

"Ah, oh! Those below the Soul Saint level have been almost all killed by the Shrek Academy inner court disciples. Half of the Soul Saints and Soul Douluos have been slaughtered by those Title Douluos. As for the Title Douluos, none of them are dead yet."

"Okay, let's make the arrangements and get started. Shrek Academy is getting too much of an eyesore in the Chamber of Commerce; let's kill a few of them to make things better!"

Although his tone was completely flat, the murderous intent contained within it made the temperature in the entire room drop several degrees.

"Hiss..."

"Hmm? Brother Zhang, is there a problem?"

"No, that's not it... I just wanted to ask which few would be more suitable to die."

Wu San was also stumped by this question.

The deaths of a few level 91 or 92 characters wouldn't be satisfying, and the deaths of Super Douluo would easily provoke Shrek Academy to lose their temper.

It's really difficult.

Finally, after more than an hour of discussion, the two finalized the list.

There are a total of four titled Douluo, among whom the most important are Cai Meier and Gong Changlong.

"Alright, that's enough. It'll be boring if too many people die. If His Majesty wants to consolidate the faith, he needs to leave some tools behind to act as villains."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Peng raised an eyebrow.

The villain?

Judging from our identities and various schemes, the two of us are more like villains.

Not right either!
The Holy Spirit Cult no longer exists; the current state religion of the Sun and Moon Empire is the New Holy Spirit Cult, a legitimate official organization.

What we have done so far is a last resort, a desperate measure taken only in order to achieve the reunification of the mainland.

Thinking of this, Zhang Peng smiled with a hint of anticipation, then flew away from the Spirit Soul Merchant Guild.
"I'll go and make arrangements for those evil spirit masters first. Be careful until I return, and don't let that old bastard Xuanzi get you killed!"

"Hmph, if it weren't for the Lord's plan, why would I have let that old codger live until now!"

Unfortunately, Zhang Peng, who had already flown far away, could no longer hear Wu San's explanation.

Three days passed quickly, and the news that the path to becoming a Soul Master had been severed spread like wildfire across the continent.

Some applauded, some watched coldly, a few were distraught, and some even lost their minds, causing the suicide rate of Soul Masters on the mainland to rise by several percentage points.

Lin Po, who watched the changing tides of fortune, felt no sympathy whatsoever.

There's no other reason than that my belief is too weak.

Instead of thinking about how to solve the soul ring problem, they're wallowing in self-pity here.

It's no wonder that even after ten thousand years, the Soul Master system in Douluo Continent hasn't made much progress.

But it's all for the best; this unhealthy trend has actually benefited him.

"Beast God Di Tian, ​​it's you I've chosen! Go!"

Emperor Tian: “.”

Your Majesty is saying things that beasts can't understand. Why do I feel like I've become a pet?

There's no other way; the work still has to be done.

The next second, Di Tian revealed his true form as the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King, a hundred meters in size, in full view of everyone above Xingluo City. The extreme power he unintentionally emitted pressed down on everyone in the city.

"Di Tian! What are you doing in my human territory?! And where have you sent all the soul beasts?!"

Xuanzi, Lin Huiqun, and a few other Super Douluo, including Shattered Star Douluo, who were able to fly despite Di Tian's imposing aura, forced themselves to remain calm and stood in front of Di Tian to question him.

However, their tone, though seemingly fierce, constantly reflected the complex emotions of fear and hope in their hearts.

Unexpectedly, Di Tian ignored Xuan Zi and the others. With a deafening roar, he used his soul power to spread his voice to every corner of Xingluo City.

"I am Di Tian, ​​the Beast God of the Star Dou Great Forest, and I have come to the human territory to announce one thing!"
Our soul beast race, after tens of thousands of years of hunting, was already on the verge of extinction. At this critical juncture, however, we were fortunate enough to receive Your Majesty's favor, allowing all soul beasts to migrate to another world to reproduce and thrive, no longer forced to eke out a living on the Douluo Continent!

"You human soul masters, just stay in this barren land and fend for yourselves! My soul beast race will no longer play with you humans!"

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone watched in disbelief as Di Tian's true form disappeared into the sky, and Xingluo City fell into a long silence.
