Douluo Continent: Ultimate Ice Light, Starting with God-Level Dual Martial Souls

Chapter 302 Is the Spirit Hall Evil? Guangyu Questions the Entire Audience
"Just the name 'Spirit Hall' alone will make many forces want to destroy you." After Xu Tianran finished speaking, he glanced intentionally or unintentionally at the elders from Shrek Academy.

He continued, "Besides, do you really think you can surpass Mingde Hall, Body Sect, and Shrek Academy's Sea God Pavilion? Hahaha!"

Guangyu laughed and said, "Whether we are dreaming or not is none of Your Highness's concern. As for whether we can surpass these forces, we'll find out once we try."

"Hahaha! Interesting, really interesting."

Xu Tianran didn't take it seriously at all, his eyes filled with disdain. Let alone whether he could surpass the three top forces on the continent, the Soul Hall would probably attract enemies if it changed its name to the Spirit Hall.

Moreover, if the Spirit Hall really grows stronger, the four great empires will probably join forces to destroy it.

Most importantly, the Sun Moon Empire is about to launch a war. If the Spirit Hall truly harbors such ambitions, it will surely destroy the Spirit Hall after the Sun Moon Empire unifies the continent.

Upon hearing this, many of the hundreds of people present, as well as countless spectators, immediately hurled insults and curses.

Elder Xuan was furious: "Guangyu, Qianxue, Ma Xiaotao, Xiaoxiao, and you all! You have disappointed me greatly!! You actually want to revive and create that kind of evil and rebellious force from ten thousand years ago!"

"If you really dare to do this, Shrek Academy will be the first to stop you!!"

"Our Shrek Academy Inspection Team will absolutely not allow an evil force like the Spirit Hall to exist!"

“Evil? What is evil?” Guangyu laughed and questioned, “Ten thousand years ago, before the Spirit Hall revealed its ambition to unify the continent, the Spirit Hall helped children in mountain villages awaken their spirits for free. Spirit masters could also receive subsidies from the Spirit Hall for free, and the Spirit Master geniuses were trained for free. Schooling was free.”

"It is of great benefit to ordinary people and ordinary soul masters. And how many high-ranking officials and nobles are there on this continent? Aren't most people born into commoner backgrounds? If it is good for the majority of ordinary people, then it is good for the continent, isn't it?"

"The Spirit Hall has a history of tens of thousands of years. When the Spirit Hall existed, were there ever any evil spirit masters on this continent? Were there ever any spirit masters who acted recklessly, causing chaos and harm to the world?!"

"Was the continent safer and more secure ten thousand years ago when the Spirit Hall existed?"

"You! Elder Xuan, answer me!!"

"Me! Me!" Elder Xuan was stunned by Guang Yu's words and couldn't utter a single word in rebuttal. The most crucial point was that what Guang Yu said was true, and he simply couldn't refute it.

"Later, when the Spirit Hall attempted to unify the Douluo Continent, did it slaughter innocent civilians? Those forces destroyed by the Spirit Hall, like the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School—why didn't they kill them when they knew these forces would turn against them? Were they just waiting for others to join forces with the enemy and kill them in return?!"

"Let me ask you a question! Xu Tianran, the Crown Prince of the Sun Moon Empire!" Guangyu pointed to Xu Tianran above.

Then, pointing at the princess of the Star Luo Empire Royal Academy: "Your Star Luo Empire princess, Xu Jiujiu!"

Then, pointing to the princess of the Heavenly Soul Empire inside the Snow Demon Sect: "And your Heavenly Soul Empire's princess, Vina!"

"Let me ask you this: If your empire wanted to unify the continent, would you eliminate those Soul Master forces that you know will become your enemies?"

Xu Jiujiu and Vina remained silent. As princesses, they naturally understood that if their empire wanted to unify the continent, it would be necessary to eliminate the Soul Master forces of opposing factions.

After all, if they are not eliminated, those forces will become enemies on the battlefield in the future, and they will eventually have to be eliminated on the battlefield.

Moreover, how can an empire achieve its hegemony without bloodshed?

Only Xu Tianran answered the question: "Of course they will! Whether it's my Sun Moon Empire, or Star Luo, Heavenly Soul, or Fighting Spirit, they will all do it!"

"Let me ask you sects again! If you have absolute strength, are you still willing to share resources and fight for resources with the surrounding Soul Master forces? Do you intend to devour the surrounding Soul Master forces and make them dependent on you?" Guangyu questioned all the Soul Master sects present.

The participating sects and soul master factions looked at each other, their answers already quite clear.

Damn it, if my sect absolutely crushes all the surrounding forces, why would anyone bother sharing resources with you?
They were certain they had taken everything, and the other forces were only fit to follow along and get the scraps.

"Let me ask Crown Prince Xu Tianran, and Princesses Jiu Jiu and Vina, if your empire possesses power far exceeding that of the other three great empires, would you still be willing to share the world with the other empires? Your empire doesn't want to unify the continent!"

For a long time, Vina remained silent, but they understood that whichever empire—Sun Moon, Star Luo, Heavenly Soul, or Fighting Spirit—possessed the absolute power to unify the continent, would raise an army, instigate war, and attack other empires.

Xu Tianran answered the question again: "Of course! I can tell you with certainty that this applies to all my forms, including Sun Moon, Star Luo, Heavenly Soul, and Battle Spirit!!"

"So wanting to unify the continent is evil?!"

"It's nothing more than a matter of the strong being supreme and the victor being king; how can you talk about evil? Where is the evil? Hmm? Elder Xuan?"

Guangyu's words stunned countless people present, and gave them a completely new understanding and perspective on the Spirit Hall.

The victors are praised, the losers are despised, and the victors can completely smear the losers in history. All of this can be manipulated by the victors.

Later generations will also be subtly influenced by the world dominated by the victors, subconsciously believing that the victors are right and the losers are wrong.

But Guangyu's words today have changed many people's views on the Spirit Hall.

Huo Yuhao also fell into deep thought.

Guangyu finished speaking, coldly staring at Elder Xuan: "Elder Xuan, if you can't explain where the evil of the Spirit Hall lies, and if I hear you label it evil again, I'll slap your mouth until it's rotten!"

"You! How dare you!!"

Elder Xuan was furious and wanted to go on stage to beat someone up.

Xu Tianran shouted, "Stop!!"

Elder Xuan couldn't hold back any longer. He withdrew his power and gritted his teeth inwardly, thinking, "Fine! A mere Soul Douluo dares to be so insolent to me! Guangyu, I'll deal with you after we leave Mingdu!"

Xu Tianran looked at Guangyu with interest and said with a smile, "Young man, I admire you. Why don't you Spirit Hall surrender to my Sun Moon Empire?"

"Then there's no need, Your Highness."

"Hehe, young man, you'll regret it if you refuse me," Xu Tianran said with a confident smile.

Because they knew that after the competition, the Holy Spirit Church would launch a siege against the Soul Palace.

If they don't join his Sun Moon Empire, Guangyu and his group will surely be killed by the Holy Spirit Cult, but if they join, he might be willing to protect them.
