Chapter 258: The Battle Begins (Subscribe Please)_1
In the grand army of the Martial Soul Empire, the eight Elders of the Hall of Martial Souls were all positioned at the forefront...
And when the foremost Red-robed Guardian sensed an intense soul power fluctuation, he frowned slightly and gestured with his hand, "Stop everything! Wait for orders!"
As his words fell, the mighty army of hundreds of thousands came to an immediate halt, waiting for the commands of the Elders of the Hall of Martial Souls!
An Elder narrowed his eyes, "There's also an intense soul power fluctuation ahead. It looks like they are ready for battle!"
The Snake Spear's eyes focused as he mused, "Hmm! And at least six Title Douluo are present. Could it be..."
The other Elders of the Hall of Martial Souls, upon hearing this, all thought of the name of a sect!
They exclaimed in unison, "Hao Tian Clan!"
Now on the Continent, the only ones capable of gathering six Title Douluo were from the upper three families' Hao Tian Clan!
One Elder said coldly, "Well, well! So it's the remnants of the Hao Tian Clan stirring up a rebellion against the Martial Soul Empire. I somewhat regret not crushing them to death back then!"
The Snake Spear spoke up, "Enough talk, quiet down. Let's just watch and see."
Suddenly, near their ear, the heart-shaking sounds of "thump, thump, thump" footsteps arose...
Following these concentrated sounds, they could vaguely make out the massed troops ahead marching towards them...
One Elder's eyes sharpened as he pointed toward the front, at Tang San, "Look quickly, that guy there! Isn't that Tang San?"
Yueguan said coldly, "That Tang San is standing right in the middle at the very front of the lineup, so perhaps all these things were stirred up by him and the Shrek Members?"
Gui Mei pursed his thin lips, his voice sinister, "These remnant Shrek scamps, His Holiness spared their lives out of kindness, but instead of living quietly, they dare to provoke our Hall of Martial Souls along with the Hao Tian Clan's remnants!"
No sooner had Gui Mei spoken than Bi Bidong, the epitome of grace, appeared before them...
Seeing this, the Elders of the Hall of Martial Souls all bowed to Bi Bidong ahead, saying with utmost respect, "Your Holiness!"
Grasping the Purple-Golden Scepter, Bi Bidong responded indifferently with a "hmph," and then, her beautiful eyes surveyed the central part of the opposing army with a hint of curiosity—Tang San and his companions from Shrek...
Her thin lips parted slightly, "Tang San?..."
These Shrek's Companions, who had narrowly escaped being hunted down by the Hall of Martial Souls, even dared to show up here!
But the next second, as her gaze clarified the divine seals on the foreheads of Tang San and the other five Shrek members, she instantly realized...
These six Shrek members had all obtained the God Position!
And moreover, they had likely all passed the divine examination!
Otherwise, how could they dare to launch an attack on the Martial Soul Empire!
With that thought, a more solemn look appeared in Bi Bidong's beautiful eyes...
...
Tang San, at the very front of the formation, swiftly activated his Purple Demon Eyes, a hint of purple flaring in his gaze, capturing all the members of the Hall of Martial Souls ahead within sight...
He thus called out coldly, "Hold!"
As Tang San's words fell, the army he led came to a halt, standing steadfastly mere tens of meters in front of the soldiers of the Martial Soul Empire...
The other Shrek Members, upon seeing Bi Bidong and the Elders of the Hall of Martial Souls, erupted with intense killing intent...
In the past, their lack of strength prevented them from avenging their teachers, but now things were different!
They now possessed terrifying God-tier strength; if they still acted submissively, it would be in vain as Shrek Members!
Ma Hongjun licked his lips, his voice filled with anger, "Today we must incinerate them completely!"
Oscar's gaze focused on a sausage in his hand, imbued with mirror intestines. Clenching his teeth, "The day to avenge our teachers has finally arrived!!"
Dai Mubai took a deep breath, steadying his emotions, and reminded, "Keep your emotions in check, everyone. Don't be influenced! This Bi Bidong is a First-Level God, much stronger than the five of us!"
Zhu Zhuqing nodded calmly, "Mm!"
Ning Rongrong, after releasing the Nine Treasures Glazed Pagoda, nodded and said, "Understood!"
...
Bi Bidong clutched the Purple-Golden Scepter and stepped forward, her cold voice rang out, "You remnants of Shrek and the Hao Tian Clan, are you so intent on destroying the peace of this Continent?"
With those words, the Purple-Golden Scepter shook, and Bi Bidong's whole body erupted with a terrifying aura that surged toward the soldiers and Soul Masters in front…
Tang San watched this oncoming pressure, his eyes suddenly turning icy, it was clear that Bi Bidong wanted to shatter their will to fight before the battle even began!
Immediately, a faint blue immense pressure also surged from his body, colliding with the scarlet pressure coming from Bi Bidong…
The terrifying presences of the two instantaneously caused the vacant ground in front of them to crack and shatter inch by inch…
Seeing herself stopped so effortlessly by Tang San, Bi Bidong huffed coldly, then withdrew her own aura…
She gauged the strength of Tang San…
His power was almost on par with her own!
Even stronger, perhaps!
The other god-rank members of Shrek would be a bit more troublesome…
Tang San's cold voice countered, "Do you think that, with all the deeds of the Martial Soul Hall, you are in any position to talk about peace?"
Bi Bidong chuckled scornfully, "You are the ones destroying this peace, and you have the right to question us?"
In Tang San's hands, the Asura Sword emitted a fierce killing intent, his voice frigid, "The grudge of Headmaster Flender and my father, I will personally settle with your life, Bi Bidong!"
"My fellows, attack!"
As Tang San spoke, the troops behind him, already struggling to contain their fighting spirit, swiftly gripped their weapons and marched forward into the fray…
Seeing the oncoming army, Bi Bidong's icy eyes also made a forceful wave with the scepter and commanded, "All the Soul Masters and soldiers of the Martial Soul Empire, attack!"
The army of the Martial Soul Empire, too, surged forward with a howling killing intent…
Within moments, the two masses of densely packed soldiers fiercely clashed with each other…
As for the Soul Masters, they were positioned to the rear, constantly bombarding the soldiers at the forefront with soul skills!!
In just an instant, one could see with the naked eye, throughout the battlefield, countless splashes of scarlet blood and the continuous fall of limbs and bodies to the ground…
...
Tang San's gaze locked onto Bi Bidong as he instructed the Shrek members beside him, "Oscar, you're in charge of supplies. Ning Rongrong, boost all of us individually, and the rest, eradicate the enemy's lower ranks as much as possible!"
The other members of Shrek nodded and responded, "Understood!"
Upon finishing, Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, and Zhu Zhuqing hurriedly released their Martial Souls, the ground beneath their feet slowly rising with ten terrifying Soul Rings...
They then charged towards the enemy troops…
Bi Bidong naturally noticed this small movement and immediately retracted the Purple-Golden Scepter…
Following that, in her palm, a scythe several meters long materialized, emitting eerie purple flames…
It was none other than the Divine Artifact of the Rakshasa God, the Rakshasa Scythe!
Bi Bidong's eyes, filled with boundless killing intent, surged toward Dai Mubai and the others assaulting their armies…
However, before she could reach them, Tang San, who held the Asura Sword with both hands and an expression of icy firmness, blocked her path…
Staring at Bi Bidong, Tang San spoke with a voice laden with deep killing intent, "Bi Bidong, your opponent is me!"
If he could just hold off Bi Bidong, with the overwhelming strength of Dai Mubai and the others over the soldiers and Soul Masters of the Martial Soul Empire, victory would be theirs!
Bi Bidong, momentarily taken aback, then…
Gripped the Rakshasa Scythe firmly, and resolutely swooped horizontally towards Tang San's head…
