Chapter 561: Ambush (Please Subscribe)_1

Not only Wind Douluo, but even the Soul Masters behind him began to show fear on their faces...

The Soul Master Captain, with a face full of panic, said, "Lord... Lord Wind Douluo, what... what is this situation?"

Wind Douluo's expression turned grim as he said, "How is this possible! How could the Sky Soul Empire possibly have as many as a thousand offensive soul tools!"

Could it be... Shrek Academy?

No, it's impossible!

Shrek Academy should have no reason to help the Sky Soul Empire!

No good, he must escape! Otherwise, even a Titled Douluo wouldn't be able to withstand such bombardment!

The other Soul Masters exclaimed in shock, "How... How does the Sky Soul Empire have so many soul tools?"

"Could they have obtained them from Shrek Academy?"

"What should we do now, Lord Wind Douluo?"

No wonder the Soul Masters of the Sun-Moon Empire, including Wind Douluo, were so terrified. They found themselves completely surrounded by the Soul Master Troop of the Sky Soul Empire, and most importantly, these Soul Masters were all equipped with soul tools!

Wind Douluo glanced over at these Soul Masters, took a deep breath, and said coldly, "Fend for yourselves!"

The next moment, Wind Douluo quickly released his Martial Soul...

Immediately following that, the light from his sixth soul ring shone beneath his feet...

One could see Wind Douluo, as if controlling the wind, floated into the sky and fled into the distance...

Seeing Wind Douluo hesitate not a moment to abandon them, the faces of these Soul Masters grew even more panicked...

"Lord Wind Douluo, you can't abandon us!"

"Lord Kuangfeng, how could you do this, damn it!"

"Lord Kuangfeng, I **** your ***"

"Let's fight them! Damn it! They won't obliterate us that easily!"

"That's right, at worst it'll be a case of both sides losing!"

However, at the moment they were ready to unleash their soul-guided attacks, a barrage of missiles came from all directions, leaving them nowhere to hide. In an instant, the Soul Masters of the Sun-Moon Empire were torn apart by the terrifying explosion...

They didn't even have the opportunity to resist!

Even before a few minutes had passed, the entire Soul Master Troop of thousands was completely wiped out!

To their dying moment, they couldn't believe that after practicing with soul tools for so long, when the battle began, they only managed to fire one or two Soul-guided Shells before perishing completely!

The forces of the Sky Soul Empire could be seen tightening their formation...

The leader of the Sky Soul Empire team, looking at the limbs strewn on the ground and the soul tools that had been blasted to pieces, said with an ugly expression, "Damn it! They even blew up the soul tools!"

The other Soul Masters consoled, "Captain, this is already enough. Their troop of thousands was obliterated by us in just a few minutes!"

"That's right! Who knew soul tools could be so powerful. Why did I choose to become a Soul Master? Being a soul tool master is so much better!"

"With this, their morale is definitely crushed. They really thought they could contend with us with so few people!"

"I bet they died without even knowing where our soul tools came from, hahaha!"

"That's for sure! And this, we really have to thank their own Sun-Moon Empire!"

The Soul Master Captain of the Sky Soul Empire glanced at the former speaker, and said solemnly, "All right, gather up! These bastards from the Sun-Moon Empire even blew up our city gates! We must repair them immediately!"

The Soul Masters of the Sky Soul Empire said in unison, "Yes! Captain!"

...

In the Sun-Moon Empire, within the grand hall...

Sitting on the throne, Xu Jiawei abruptly stood up, his face alight with shock as he exclaimed, "The Sky Soul Empire has actually annihilated a troop of the Sun-Moon Empire? How is this possible!"

That was a Soul Master Troop equipped with soul tools, with the strength of the Sky Soul Empire, how could they possibly have defeated the Sun-Moon Empire?

It must be the Sky Soul Empire fabricating lies to stabilize their military's morale!

The man reporting to Xu Jiawei respectfully said, "Your Majesty, it is said that the Sky Soul Empire now possesses at least a thousand soul tools, and they easily wiped out the Sun-Moon Empire's troops, despite the element of surprise."

"Moreover, the Sky Soul Empire has also told us how they came to possess their soul tools?"

A glint sparked in Xu Jiawei's eyes, "Oh? Tell me more!"

Being able to get their hands on thousands of soul tools truly made Xu Jiawei's heart stir with excitement...

Shadows flickered in the man's eyes as he began, "The Sky Soul Empire claims their soul tools come from the Sun-Moon Empire—Mingde Hall!"

After pondering for a moment, Xu Jiawei came to a realization and laughed, "Mingde Hall... I see, hahaha! So the Sun-Moon Empire can't even control their most loyal subjects and they still dream of swallowing our two great empires!"

The man suggested, "This subordinate believes that we could also try to make contact with Mingde Hall! Perhaps..."

A cold smirk appeared on Xu Jiawei's face, "That's exactly what I was thinking! Take care of this matter, and do not disappoint me!"

If both the Sky Soul Empire and Sun-Moon Empire were to possess soul tools, then together they could annihilate the Sun-Moon Empire!

And then divide up all of the Sun-Moon Empire's resources and technology!

The man nodded and said, "Yes, Your Majesty! I will not let you down!"

Suddenly alarmed, Xu Jiawei asked, "Right, what's the situation with the two Elders of the Sea God Pavilion from Shrek Academy?"

The soul tool technology of these two Sea God's Pavilion Elders was what could truly help them close the gap with the Sun-Moon Empire!

The man explained, "Your Majesty the Emperor, these two esteemed Elders of the Sea God Pavilion have already begun instructing our Xingluo Empire soul masters, and results should be forthcoming before long!"

Xu Jiawei expressed his satisfaction, "Very good, make sure to take good care of these two Elders of the Sea God Pavilion, fulfill their needs at all costs, whatever they require!"

"This subordinate understands!"

...

In the Soul Guidance Device Research Institute of the Xingluo Empire...

Fan Yu and Xuan Ziwen were busily instructing dozens of Level 3 and Level 4 soul masters...

And a sweat-drenched Fan Yu, unable to tolerate it any longer, pointed out their mistakes and then sternly said, "You need to practice well in this area. Alright, begin now!"

Despite some confusion, these soul masters deeply trusted Fan Yu's words and promptly began practicing...

A relieved Fan Yu then sighed, "It's horrific! I didn't expect the soul tool technology of the Xingluo Empire to be just deficient; it's unbearable to watch!"

Though those studying here were Level 3 and Level 4 soul masters, very few could actually manufacture somewhat useful soul tools!

Most of what they produced were akin to toys! Low attack power, short range, and they consumed a lot of Soul Power!

Xuan Ziwen couldn't help but chuckle, "Stop complaining. Although it's exhausting to instruct these soul masters here... we basically get whatever materials we want without conditions, which is perfect for us to attempt creating a Ninth-grade Soul Guidance Device like those from Qian Yu."

Fan Yu nodded, "Hmm! Then let's get started!"

With that, he took out the blueprints given to them by Qian Yu and began to study them meticulously...

If he could master this exquisite design, he too could advance to a ninth-rank soul-guidance master!
