The Chairman saw the Elders of the Sea God's Pavilion's determined attitude, hesitation flickering across his cheeks…
Qiangu Qingfeng suddenly spoke up, "Chairman, gathering other armies to confront the Abyssal Creature Army is not impossible."
Fire flared in the Chairman's eyes, "Deputy Councilman!"
Unexpectedly, the former also agreed with the Elders of the Sea God's Pavilion!
Wasn't this a slap in the face to him as the Chairman?
Qiangu Qingfeng continued, "Chairman, please calm down. According to the information we've gathered, the Xingluo Empire is currently amassing troops on a large scale, aiming to exterminate the Evil Soul Masters of the Holy Spirit Cult within their borders, so it's unlikely they will attack us!"
"Moreover, His Majesty the Emperor of Xingluo Empire's sister, Dai Yun'er, also holds the status of an inner court student at Shrek Academy!"
"Elder Long, am I correct?"
Although Tang Wulin is the Sea God Pavilion Master, in his eyes, the one with the greatest authority in the Sea God Pavilion should be the Light and Shadow Douluo, Long Yeyue!
Hearing this, Long Yeyue became even more cautious, "Hmm, the Deputy Counsilman is right, Dai Yun'er indeed holds the status of an inner court student!"
How did the federation find out about this news!
Could it be that they have planted their people inside Shrek Academy?
Upon saying this, the Chairman looked at Qiangu Qingfeng full of astonishment…
Even the federation was unaware of this matter, and he, who had just become the Deputy Chairman, how did he know!
Seeing this, Qiangu Qingfeng said coldly, "Chairman, there's no need for surprise. I also heard about this matter from the Ancient Tower Master!"
In an instant, the on-looking Gu Yuena became the center of attention…
Unexpectedly, she said indifferently, "So what? I too was once a student at Shrek Academy, knowing this shouldn't come as a surprise, right?"
Was this a trap set here waiting for her? It seems she had overestimated the other party!
How could Qiangu Qingfeng let this topic slide so easily, he sneered, "Really? But I remember, the Ancient Tower Master had been expelled from Shrek Academy, with the unanimous agreement of the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion!"
Leng Yaozhu, holding back all this while, couldn't help but coldly snap, "Qiangu Qingfeng, enough is enough!"
This guy, he clearly wants to ruin Gu Yuena's reputation completely during this conference!
Gu Yuena stopped the former, "Teacher, it's okay!"
Then she said proudly, "Indeed, I was expelled from Shrek Academy, but so what? Qiangu Qingfeng, didn't you also get kicked out from the Spirit Pagoda and then join the federation?"
"It seems, you also leaked quite a few secrets of Spirit Pagoda, didn't you?"
Upon hearing this, Qiangu Qingfeng rebuked, "You…"
It was clearly him who left on his own accord at that time, moreover, what he leaked were not the core secrets of the Spirit Pagoda!
They were merely plans that Gu Yuena had deliberated thoroughly to achieve!
An impatient Guan Yue interrupted the two's conversation bluntly, "I don't want to deal with your affairs, and besides, what we are discussing now is how to combat the abyssal creatures!"
Qiangu Qingfeng coldly "hmmph" and then said again, "To summarize, the Xingluo Empire will not launch an attack, and as for the Douling Empire, even less likely, with their soul tool technology, they are not to be feared!"
…
In the border cities where the defensive lines were established, they saw the Abyssal Creature Army subtly showing signs of breakthrough, and reinforcements had not arrived yet, many Soul Masters showed signs of anxiety…
"Damn it, why haven't the reinforcements from headquarters arrived yet, just relying on our few people, we simply can't hold them off!"
"Yes, it's been several days already, the offensive of these Abyssal Creature Army is really too fierce, even using soul weapons we can't stop their advance!"
"Damn it, have we been abandoned? Why do others enjoy luxury behind the lines while we are here using our lives to fend off the Abyssal Creature Army!"
"I'm done, I knew it was no good being assigned here by headquarters, this is just turning us into cannon fodder!"
The lead War God glanced at them, grinding his teeth and said, "Everyone, quiet down! The federation and War God Hall will not abandon us, they must be establishing a more solid defense line behind us!"
"Just hold on a bit longer, and we'll be able to retreat!"
If these opinions continue to spread, surely even more Soul Masters will lose the will to fight against the Abyssal Creature Army, and our defenses will collapse without being beaten!
Compared to them, the Abyssal Emperors on this side seemed a bit impatient...
The Demon Emperor sneered, "Truly tenacious ants, don't they realize they've become cannon fodder?"
The Fierce Emperor disdainfully said, "Hmph, that's humans for you, completely incomparable to us abyssal creatures!"
The Wise Emperor dissatisfiedly spoke, "In my view, the Emperor is too compassionate. Why give these foolish humans a chance? Wouldn't it be better to annihilate them in one fell swoop?"
The Spirit Emperor, seeing this, very cautiously said to the silent Abyssal Emperor beside him, "It's been quite a while, Emperor, aren't we taking action yet? Just say the word, and this so-called defense line can be broken at any time!"
The human defenses had held up till now solely because these powerful Abyssal Emperors had not yet made a move!
The Abyssal Emperor responded indifferently, "Indeed, we have wasted too much time here. Let's resolve this quickly."
In his perception, these humans were but ants, not even invoking his desire to kill!
Continuing like this, it was unlikely to draw out any being worthy of his personal intervention!
The Spirit Emperor slightly nodded, "Yes, Emperor!"
The next second, his terrifying spiritual power instantly enveloped the entire army, directing all the abyssal creatures to launch their assault...
And he himself, also directly charged toward the human defensive line...
Seeing this, the other Abyssal Emperors too felt eager and after a moment's hesitation, quickly followed suit...
Leveraging their powerful might, they massacred ordinary Soul Masters...
The lead War God naturally noticed this scene, his face turning extremely ugly, "Damn it, the worst scenario has unfolded, all the Abyssal Emperors have made their move!"
With just himself and so few Soul Masters, there was no way to withstand them!
But there was no choice, as a War God of the War God Hall, he couldn't possibly abandon his comrades just to save himself; he had to face the music and fight...
Sure enough, the ensuing battle was completely one-sided...
Even before an hour passed, the human defensive line was utterly flattened, and the entire city reduced to rubble...
All the Soul Masters who tried to resist were utterly destroyed under the onslaught of the Abyssal Creature Army...
Under the command of the Abyssal Emperor, they continued their invasion towards the nearest other city...
...
Douling Empire!
Xue Yuntian's eyes were sharp as he looked at the elder before him, "The item given by the Ghost Emperor, how effective is it?"
If there were any issues, he would absolutely not consider collaborating with the Holy Spirit Cult!
The elder took a deep breath and answered, "Your Majesty, after testing, it indeed works without issues, but the Soul Masters of the Douling Empire still need some time to fully master it."
Even though they had received technology from the Holy Spirit Cult, there was still a gap between Soul Masters...
