Douluo: Martial Soul Nine-Tailed Fox, I am the White Fox Emperor

Chapter 162 Star Luo Empire
What do you think?
The civil and military officials below exchanged glances. This was a very difficult problem. The Martial Soul Empire was currently at its peak. What could they do?
The best approach would actually be to wait and see, but since the Star Emperor has already asked, saying that is definitely not an option.

"Humph!"

Seeing that no one answered, Dai Yutian looked at the person in the leading position of the military generals: "General, you speak first. What do you think of this matter? Although this situation has not yet happened to our Star Luo Empire, we have the example of the Heaven Dou Empire."

Do you think we need to take precautions?

General Dai Zhenxuan, a branch of the Dai family, is not qualified to compete for the throne. The largest legion he commands is the White Tiger Legion, which is mainly composed of soldiers with the White Tiger Martial Soul.

Some might wonder why the Dai family's struggle for the throne was always so bloody, with only the ultimate victor able to sit on the throne, while the rest were either stripped of their cultivation and sent to their fiefdoms or simply killed on the spot.

Then why are there still branch veins?

Are there other beings who possess the White Tiger Martial Soul?

First of all, the struggle for the throne does not necessarily mean death. Many princes have had their cultivation stripped, and their descendants, regardless of gender, are all classified as branch families.

Although the probability of losing the competition and being eliminated is high, it is not 100%.

Furthermore, it's not that the descendants of the Star Luo Emperor only included princes and had no princesses.

How should this be handled for the princess?
There are generally two ways to handle this: the first is to find a husband for the bride, and the second is to marry her off to someone of lower status.

Regardless of the type, their descendants will still be classified as branches, and those with the White Tiger Martial Soul will definitely join the White Tiger Legion.

Even if they were the emperor's sisters, their sons would certainly not have the right to compete for the title of prince.

If you have this thought, the outcome is self-evident: death!

Moreover, the White Tiger Martial Soul itself is quite powerful. The Star Luo Empire is primarily martial, and its military strength is much greater than that of the Heaven Dou Empire. This is very likely because its army is stronger than that of the Heaven Dou Empire.

Where does this strength come from?
The White Tiger Legion deserves much of the credit.

If it weren't for the obstruction of the Spirit Hall, the support of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School for the Heaven Dou Empire, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, or even the Clear Sky Sect, the Star Luo Empire could have destroyed the Heaven Dou Empire before the Spirit Hall was even established.

What makes the royal family of the Swan Martial Soul able to stand on equal footing with the Star Luo Empire?

The Heavenly Dou Empire should really be grateful to the Three Upper Sects for not being destroyed.

The three upper sects were all established within the territory of the Heaven Dou Empire.

On the surface, only the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School supports the Heavenly Dou Royal Family, while the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan remains neutral.

But is it truly neutral?

The Blue Tyrant Academy, founded by Liu Erlong, is located in Tiandou City. The Thunder Academy, supported by the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, is located in Thunder City. Yu Tianheng, the most powerful contender for the position of young patriarch of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, is located in the Tiandou Royal Academy.

On the other hand, are there any members of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan in the Star Luo Empire?
If it really exists, why wasn't it mentioned in the original work? Even just briefly mentioned?

This neutrality is just a load of nonsense.

And what about the Haotian Sect?
Yu Xiaogang only hinted at supporting the Star Luo Empire, and the meaning of "hintedly" is worth exploring.

If we really want to support the Star Luo Empire, why can't we do it openly and honestly?
Furthermore, why not choose a location within the Star Luo Empire? Wouldn't that provide better support?
After the Clear Sky Sect closed its gates, only Tang Yuehua transmitted resources to the sect from the outside world. Why did Tang Yuehua choose to establish Yuexuan at the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy instead of the Star Luo Royal Academy?

Why did Emperor Xueye do nothing, even though he knew about the forces behind Tang Yuehua, Yu Tianheng, and Liu Erlong?

Does this count as tacit agreement?

In the original novel, after Tang San's Clear Sky Hammer was exposed, Emperor Xue Ye did not have any murderous intent, but instead laughed out loud.

Because of what?
Because Tang San represents his Heaven Dou Empire!
All signs indicate that the Star Luo Empire in this timeline is like a clown, feeling isolated and helpless.

Is it because they are too powerful to need assistance?
Dai Zhenxuan stepped forward, pondered for a moment, and said, "Your Majesty, I think we still need to investigate thoroughly. Why did Tianshui City submit to the Martial Soul Empire? Was it because the Martial Soul Empire gave it too much, or was it threatened? We haven't figured this out yet."

“If it’s the former, we can easily announce to the outside world that Tianshui City joined because the Martial Soul Empire promised benefits, while other cities will definitely wait and see.”

"After all, the Martial Soul Empire has only just been established. If it can promise benefits to Tianshui City, can it also promise benefits to other cities? The resources required for a newly established nation are not small."

"If it is the latter, we can also issue a notice stating that if the Martial Soul Empire infringes upon our territory, we will retaliate with legitimate means!"

"So even now, though it's not wartime, we still need to practice diligently so we can defend ourselves in the future."

Dai Zhenxuan's words were very pertinent; he said everything that needed to be said.

At this moment, Zhu Ming, the head of the Zhu family, also spoke up: "Your Majesty, perhaps we can try to unite with the Heaven Dou Empire and then send people to inquire about the intentions of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, the Clear Sky Sect, and other sects that have not joined the Spirit Empire."

"The Martial Soul Empire is too powerful now. We must unite to have any hope of resisting it."

Zhu Ming used the phrase "confront" to indicate that even if things were done as he suggested, he was not confident that he could defeat the Martial Soul Empire.

The Spirit Empire's power structure is already established; unless a miracle occurs, otherwise...
Qibao Glazed Sect.

In the past few months, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School has already moved its sect to a mountain not far from Wuhun City.

The new sect was built with the help of Midou, who added some offensive and defensive measures to the original structure, making the sect even more fortified.

"Dad, didn't you say our original sect was near Heaven Dou City? Why did we go through all that trouble to move here?"

At this moment, a cute-looking little girl asked Ning Fengzhi curiously.

Ning Fengzhi looked at Ning Rongrong, who was being held in Chen Xin's arms, and smiled: "Rongrong, this is because the Martial Soul Empire is powerful. In order to protect ourselves, our sect has no choice but to join the Martial Soul Empire."

Ning Rongrong frowned: "Ah, is that sect still our sect?"

Ning Fengzhi gently pinched Ning Rongrong's nose, his face full of affection: "Of course, it's still our sect. We joined the Spirit Empire, and the Spirit Empire didn't restrict our actions. Besides, your Sword Grandpa and Bone Grandpa are now considered high-ranking members of the Spirit Hall."

Ning Rongrong is only three years old, but she already has a very pretty face.

Because she is only three years old, her voice still has a bit of a babyish quality, and she has a little bit of baby fat.
