Douluo Continent: The Twin Sons of the Styx River, Shaking the World and Destroying the Heavens

Chapter 136 Tang San's Scheme

After leaving Xiaobai behind, Xue Di said, "You will need to wait a while before you become Adie's spirit. Now, let's talk about something else."

His gaze then fell on Xia Die, and he said, "Ah Die, what is the other important matter you mentioned?"

Xia Die observed the terrain and said, "Snow Emperor, we need you to dig open a section of ice. Perhaps this is the most important thing for you in some sense."

Poseidon Pavilion.

In the spacious conference hall, the discussions of the Shrek elders could be heard frequently in the Sea God Pavilion.

Now, relying on external resources, Xuanzi has broken through to become a Limit Douluo, and Yan Shaozhe and Song Yunzhi have successively become Limit Douluos.

There are no ordinary Title Douluos anymore, only Limit Douluos.

"Now, the problem of student enrollment has been significantly improved. Measures such as providing free martial soul awakening for ordinary people have been effectively implemented. The requirement for a city lord's recommendation letter has been eliminated. Many talented students have emerged among the new students. Although the quality of students has decreased, it is not as bad as imagined."

A highly respected elder paused for a moment before continuing to summarize: "The academy has successfully established a clandestine sect, named the Divine Soul Sect. Elder Mu will temporarily serve as the sect leader, Elder Xuan will be the sect protector, and the sect will have an elder council and other institutions. Most of the sect's disciples are either graduates of the academy or students still studying there."

"This is what we have achieved during this period. We need to keep up the good work!"

After the elder finished summarizing the many achievements made by Shrek Academy during this period, he sat down.

After a moment of silence in the conference hall, an elder said in a deep voice, "The sect has already been established, and the existence of the Divine Soul Sect will be known to the world sooner or later. Rather than hiding it from the Douluo Three Kingdoms, why don't we take the initiative to announce to the world that our Shrek Academy has established the Divine Soul Sect?"

"Such a grand announcement to the world will likely deepen the rift between Shrek Academy and the Douluo Kingdom."

"Since we established this sect, we expected this kind of thing. Now that it's established, the Douluo Three Kingdoms won't say anything more."

"There are quite a few sects and forces within the Douluo Three Kingdoms. If the Douluo Three Kingdoms can't even accommodate the Divine Soul Sect, then in my opinion, the Douluo Three Kingdoms have no reason to exist!"

"Before the Sun-Moon Empire launches a war of unification, what if we unify the three Douluo Kingdoms and confront the Sun-Moon Empire head-on? Ending the continent's ten-thousand-year division and achieving great unification, perhaps we can leave our names in history and be admired by countless future generations!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the Poseidon Pavilion instantly became quiet.

The other elders looked at each other, all shocked by the elder's fierce words.

Because some time ago, during the time when Xia Die was in Dragon Valley, the Three Kingdoms established the Three Kingdoms Joint Academy, and Shrek Academy was not informed of this.

Of course, preparations have been made to compete with Shrek Academy. Currently, the largest academies in the Douluo Three Kingdoms are Shrek Academy, Martial Soul Academy, and the Three Kingdoms United Academy.

This time, a few years ago, Zhongli Wu led a group of evil soul masters to try to take Ma Xiaotao away, but it ended in failure because, in addition to Mu En, there was also a demigod Douluo.

In this Sea God Pavilion, the young man sleeping next to Mu En is none other than Jue Tianzi. Despite his young age, he is actually older than Mu En. He accidentally entered something and became a long-lived being. His martial soul is the Thunder Tyrant Dragon, and he possesses the Ancient Tree of Life. He is a level 99 demigod Douluo, with strength comparable to a quasi-god. Because of what he planted before, he achieved a long-lived body.

We originally wanted him to be the Supreme Elder, but he refused.

For the past ten thousand years, although the higher-ups of Shrek Academy had the intention to intervene in the politics of the Douluo Three Kingdoms, they always regarded themselves as the academy and used their position of morality to intervene, not daring to reveal too much ambition for fear of being condemned by future generations.

Now, the Douluo Three Kingdoms have betrayed Shrek Academy in an unconventional way. They are the ones who passively established the Divine Soul Sect in order to save Shrek Academy. Even if word gets out, their reasons for establishing the Divine Soul Sect are perfectly legitimate.

Consequently, it wouldn't be unreasonable for them to use Shrek City, where the Divine Soul Sect is located, as a base to interfere in the politics of the Douluo Three Kingdoms. After all, it was the Douluo Three Kingdoms that first betrayed Shrek Academy; they were merely trying to protect their own interests!
If great unification is truly achieved, this group of people will surely be recorded in history and respected and admired by future generations!

The more the elders pondered, the more rapid and heavy their breathing became. Although they were all powerful soul masters with foresight and insight far beyond that of ordinary people, most of them found it difficult to resist the huge temptation of leaving their names in history.

Over the past millennia, countless powerful spirit masters have dominated the continent. But how many of them have truly left their names in the memory of future generations?
Not to mention leaving your name in history for countless future generations to admire...

After a long silence, our Supreme Elder, Xuanzi, spoke.

"As a guardian elder of the Divine Soul Sect, I believe it is entirely appropriate to proclaim the existence of the Divine Soul Sect to the world. The establishment of the Divine Soul Sect does not require the approval of the Douluo Three Kingdoms, because they are not qualified!"

Xuanzi took a sip of wine and said in a deep voice, "It was the Douluo Three Kingdoms that actively refused to cooperate with our Shrek Academy. We were forced to establish the Divine Soul Sect by circumstances. Since that's the case, the Douluo Three Kingdoms must bear all the consequences! We should no longer be bound by those old rules and regulations. We should now shift our mindset to seeking benefits for the sect and the academy..."

"Currently, our Shrek Academy has been humiliated by Sin City and Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy in the previous competition, making us a disgrace to all Soul Master academies on the continent."

In the huge Sea God Pavilion, only Xuanzi's voice was heard. The elders, including Moon, all looked at him sideways, as they had never expected Xuanzi to have such insights.

Although Xuanzi's perspective was a bit unconventional, it wasn't entirely without merit... A super academy that had stood proudly on the continent for millennia had been tricked twice by the Douluo Three Kingdoms, which they were supposed to protect. If it weren't for Shrek Academy, the Douluo Three Kingdoms would have been annexed by the Sun Moon Empire long ago during that Holy War a thousand years ago...

"This Heavenly Ranking has greatly strengthened the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, so I have decided to ambush the exchange students of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy after Bei Bei and the others return."

After all, the talent they've displayed is too terrifying; for the future development of the academy, this matter must be resolved.

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at each other, all with a suspicious gaze. Could such an astonishing scheme really have come up with by this idiot whose brain is soaked in alcohol?

Although Shrek hunted down evil soul masters all over the world and "accidentally killed" many powerful soul masters, they also targeted those geniuses who were not useful to Shrek in previous Continental Advanced Soul Master Competitions. Although the plan to kill the exchange students was very clever, wasn't it too risky?
Don't forget that Ni Ye was also among the exchange students during the attack on the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.

With a demigod Douluo present, they won't let you succeed so easily. The Sea God Pavilion fell silent, everyone's expression solemn, their faces thoughtful.

After pondering for a long time, the elders began to argue with each other.

Some elders believed that killing the exchange students would tarnish Shrek's reputation, while others believed that history is written by the victors. If they succeeded, not only would they establish a sect, but Shrek Academy would also be able to return to its former lofty status, admired by the Douluo Kingdoms...

There were constant arguments in Poseidon Pavilion, with elders holding different opinions holding to their own views and refusing to make any concessions.

Because they all understood that this move would have a far-reaching impact on Shrek, and they did not want to be the culprit who would drag down and ruin Shrek's development.

Mu En sighed, tapped the table, and made a decision on the content of this Sea God Pavilion meeting: "The matter of establishing the sect can be announced to the world. It is a good opportunity to test the attitude of the Douluo Three Kingdoms and the Sun Moon Empire. As for the matter of intercepting the exchange students, let me think about it some more. I will make a notification after I have made a decision. Alright, meeting adjourned."

"Okay, Mr. Mu."

Then, the elders slowly left.

"Xuan Zi, please stay for a while. I have something important to tell you." Moon En said in a deep voice.

The elders who were about to leave looked back at Xuanzi and Moon, and a hint of understanding flashed in their eyes.

Whenever there are major disagreements in the Poseidon Pavilion meetings and it is inconvenient to come to a conclusion directly, Elder Mu will adjourn the meeting on the pretext of thinking and considering. If Elder Mu has an answer in his mind, he will immediately send someone to stay and give important instructions. If he is really not thoughtful enough, he will let all the elders leave.

Obviously, this time, Mr. Mu supported Xuanzi's proposal to kill the exchange students.

Those elders who disagreed with the proposal to kill the exchange students could only sigh secretly, accept Moon's decision and leave silently.

After all the other elders had left, Xuanzi respectfully asked:

"Elder Mu, what do you need me to do?"

Mu En pondered for a moment and said, "You will take a few disciples from within the sect who are not well-known, or have someone from the black market carry out the task of intercepting the exchange students. The targets are the exchange students from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy. Under no circumstances should your identities be revealed."

"Yes, Mr. Mu."

Xuanzi was also very surprised that Mu En had agreed. He had talked to Shao Zhe about it before, and today he was testing whether or not to agree.

"We should pay special attention to Jing Hongchen's grandson. After controlling these exchange students, we should keep them under control and not rush to kill them. They can be used to deal with the Sun Moon Empire later."

"By the way, if that Xia Die is also here, we can ignore the others, she must be captured alive."

Moon En explained several precautions in detail before letting Xuanzi leave the Sea God Pavilion.

"Xuan Zi, this opportunity depends on whether you can seize it..."

Moon stood in front of the window, looking at Xuan Zi's back as he hurriedly left under the golden tree. His expression was cold, not as gentle and kind as before.

After all, this mission wasn't his idea, but rather the one given by the ancestral sea god in the heavens, whose purpose was to capture her.

Even the emperor remained silent, tacitly agreeing.

Before Xuanzi left, Mu En gave him something called the Lock of Imprisonment, which could imprison anyone below the level of a god, allowing him to use it to restrain Ni Ye.

He was given five in total, to be used to limit the strength of the Sun Moon Empire.
