Zhang Xinjie glanced at the War Gods and narrowed his eyes, "The foundation of Shrek Academy is undoubtedly reliable, but have you forgotten? When have the folks from Sea God's Pavilion ever sought help from other forces, no matter what difficulties they encountered?"
As this statement was made, it immediately provoked a look of contemplation in the eyes of many War Gods…
After a long pause, the first War God to react sharply inhaled, "Hiss… Now that the Hall Master mentions it, it does seem to be the case. Shrek Academy had once faced assaults as disastrous as calamities, yet it survived without intervention from other powers!"
Another War God beside them added, "And this time, the elders of the Sea God's Pavilion actually set aside their pride to seek help from the Tang Sect and other forces. Could it be that even they believe Shrek Academy alone can't withstand the Holy Spirit Cult?"
"If even Shrek Academy can't stand against the Holy Spirit Cult, then the situation is indeed troublesome!"
"The Hall Master is truly insightful, to have thought this far ahead!"
Zhang Xinjie pursed his lips and spoke again, "Therefore, I plan to send one of you to Shrek Academy! Who is willing?"
Although the War God Hall didn't have much interaction with Shrek Academy, their relationship was still quite amicable!
After all, one organization was nurtured by the hands of the federation, while the other was a power renowned across the Continent!
No sooner had his voice fallen when Vice Hall Master Guan Yue, with an expressionless face, said, "Hall Master, if someone must be sent to Shrek Academy for negotiations, let me go."
Zhang Xinjie looked at the person's face and hesitated, "Guan Yue, if you go..."
Guan Yue shook his head, still calm, "Hall Master, it's alright, I have long since let go of the past!"
Zhang Xinjie sighed helplessly, "Since you've said so, then I'll trouble you to make a trip to Shrek Academy!"
Guan Yue nodded slightly, "Yes, Hall Master!"
Soon after, Zhang Xinjie turned his gaze toward each of the War Gods below and ordered, "Attention, all War Gods! Speed up the federation's patrol frequency as much as possible, and ensure that the Holy Spirit Cult's Evil Soul Masters are kept at bay!"
The War Gods shouted in unison, "Understood!"
...
Holy Spirit Cult!
The woman, holding the title of Demon Emperor, glanced at Halos with her beautiful eyes and said softly, "Halos, now you lead the way to where we are developing the Twelfth-Grade Soul Guidance Shell!"
The Ghost Emperor's face, concealed behind the mask, shifted slightly, but he said nothing more…
Upon hearing her words, Halos immediately bowed and said, "Yes, Demon Emperor!"
Just as he was about to step away, the woman smiled and added, "Oh, and you three come as well, to see the weapon that can destroy the entire Tang Sect."
This remark was naturally directed at the Dark Blood Devil trio, who looked at each other and nodded before following behind Halos…
About ten minutes later, under Halos's guidance, the group arrived at a location used by the Holy Spirit Cult for soul tool research!
The evil Soul Masters around them did not hesitate to kneel down respectfully upon their arrival, saying, "Demon Emperor! Sect Hierarch!"
In front of them stood a precise and colossal soul tool, occupying an area of several thousand kilometers!
Watching this scene, the Dark Blood Devil trio all thought, "Is this the secretly developed Twelfth-Grade Soul Guidance Shell? It's truly magnificent!"
"The sheer size of this soul tool covers several thousand kilometers!! No wonder it can destroy an entire city!"
"If such a gigantic Soul Guidance Shell were to be deployed over the Tang Sect, surely even the surrounding areas would be plunged into death and destruction, right?"
The woman glanced at the Level Twelve soul tool in front of her and asked indifferently, "How's the soul tool coming along?"
One of the leading evil Soul Masters stood up and explained, "Demon Emperor, after our calibrations, this Twelfth-Grade soul tool is ready to fire at any time, and its shell can annihilate a city!"
"However, after being used, its cooling period could last several months, or even years!"
At these words, the Ghost Emperor roared in anger, "What? The cooldown time is that long? Are you all useless?"
Feeling the terrifying pressure emanating from him, the evil Soul Masters hastily explained, "Sect Hierarch, please calm your anger. The so-called cooldown time refers to the need for each Twelfth-Grade Soul Guidance Shell and Twelfth-Grade Soul tool to perfectly integrate to avoid any accidents!"
Hearing this explanation, the Ghost Emperor "hmmphed" coldly and retracted his daunting pressure…
Taking a deep breath, the Demon Emperor asked calmly, "Is there any way to shorten the time?"
She had originally planned to destroy the Tang Sect with the creation of the Twelfth-Grade Soul tools before dealing with Shrek Academy!
The leading evil Soul Master said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Demon Emperor, but to ensure safety, we can't reduce the time!"
The other evil Soul Masters also nodded in agreement...
For this was concerning the Twelfth-Grade Soul Guidance Shells, and if anything went wrong, even the Holy Spirit Cult could be wiped out!
The Demon Emperor licked her soft, delicate lips and said, "Is that so…"
It seemed that this matter couldn't be forced!
After a pause, she said again, "Since that's the case, let's test the power of these Twelfth-Grade Soul Guidance Shells now!"
The leading evil Soul Master looked dumbfounded and asked, "Demon Emperor, you mean…"
The woman's beautiful eyes grew cold as she commanded icily, "Fire the Twelfth-Grade Soul cannon now and destroy the Tang Sect!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone gasped, "Hiss…"
The Demon Emperor wanted to bomb the Tang Sect right away, how decisively ruthless!
A hint of impatience laced the woman's tone, "What, is there a problem?"
When the evil Soul Master came to his senses, he shook his head frantically like a rattle-drum, "No…no problem, Demon Emperor. We will adjust the coordinates and bomb the Tang Sect right away!"
...
Tang Sect!
Zang Xin glanced cautiously at Cao Zhide beside him and whispered, "Sect Leader, what's wrong? You don't look very well!"
The Sector Leader had never shown such an expression before!
Cao Zhide said with a heavy expression, "I don't know why, but I have an ominous premonition in my heart. It's as if a disaster is imminent!"
Zang Xin speculated, "An ominous premonition? I think it might be due to your recent concern over the Holy Spirit Cult's matters, making you a bit worn out?"
Cao Zhide propped his chin and said, "That's possible, but we should still be careful. Go inform the Soul Guidance Hall to reinforce the Tang Sect's defenses on all fronts!"
Zang Xin was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Yes, Sect Leader. I'll see to it right away!"
But before he could leave, Cao Zhide added, "Also, besides the disciples of the Soul Guidance Hall, evacuate everyone else from the Tang Sect!"
The ominous premonition in his heart grew stronger; this was definitely not a good sign!
He hoped it was all just his own imagination!
