Xingluo Land, inside the great hall!
Sitting in the main seat, Dai Tianling looked down at the ministers below without a word…
Instead, it was Dai Yueyan, the Crown Prince, who took the initiative to speak, "According to the news from our diplomats sent to Douluo Land, a sensational incident has recently occurred on their side!"
"That is the attack on Shrek Academy by hundreds of Soul cannonballs, among which was mixed a Level Twelve Soul Guidance Shell!"
As soon as these words came out, many ministers widened their eyes in shock…
One of the ministers exclaimed, "What? How could the Holy Spirit Cult possibly possess a Level Twelve Soul Guidance Shell! As far as I am aware, only three such shells exist in the entire world, and all of them are under the control of the Douluo Federation!"
Another minister furrowed his brow and nodded, "That's correct, the federation is very strict about the management of these three Soul Guidance Shells!"
"Isn't that obvious? It must be that the high-ranking officials of the federation colluded with the Holy Spirit Cult in some shady dealings!"
"The ulterior motives of the Douluo Federation's high-ranking officials are no secret to any power! But collaborating with the Holy Spirit Cult, that really is going too far!"
"But isn't the Holy Spirit Cult currently being pursued by our Xingluo Empire? How do they have the time to interfere with Douluo Land as well? They are completely disregarding us!"
Hearing this, Dai Yueyan slightly nodded his head and said, "Indeed, our Xingluo Empire's strength is much weaker compared to Douluo Land. But this point shows that the Holy Spirit Cult doesn't take us seriously!"
Dai Tianling in the main seat slightly furrowed his brows, "Yue Yan…"
Dai Yueyan glanced at the former, "Father Emperor, you need not worry; I have a sense of measure."
Seeing this, Dai Tianling then refrained from saying more…
Of course, some ministers also asked, "Your Highness the Crown Prince, in your opinion, what should our Xingluo Empire do next?"
Dai Yueyan's expression turned serious, "It's simple, we should do our utmost to locate the bases established by the Holy Spirit Cult and completely destroy them!"
The overall strength of the Holy Spirit Cult now was even stronger than before they came to Xingluo Land!
If we do not suppress them now, I fear that even in terms of numbers they may surpass Xingluo Land soon!
This statement immediately encountered opposition from the ministers, "Your Highness the Crown Prince, it's easy to say such a thing, but searching the entire Continent for the Holy Spirit Cult's stronghold is like looking for a needle in a haystack!"
"That's right, although our Xingluo Empire has many soldiers, their overall strength is very weak. Even if they find the Holy Spirit Cult's base, I fear they may not come back alive!"
"Your Highness the Crown Prince, with all due respect, your idea seems rather naïve!"
If it were really possible to find the Holy Spirit Cult's base in a short time, we wouldn't still be clueless about it!
Dai Yueyan appeared to have anticipated this scene, "That may not necessarily be the case, if we proceed like this…"
…
After hearing his proposal, all the ministers were dumbfounded…
Not for any other reason, but because their Crown Prince was truly bold in his thinking!
He actually planned to draft a massive army! If other Continents were not clear about the situation in Xingluo Land, they would probably mistake it for a prelude to war!
Some of the ministers hesitated, "Your Highness the Crown Prince, while this method could allow our military to spread across Xingluo Land, I fear it may encounter opposition from other Continental powers!"
"Ordinary soldiers stand little chance against the evil Soul Masters of the Holy Spirit Cult. In my opinion, we should still prioritize Soul Masters!"
"I actually agree with the Crown Prince's proposal. If we could enhance the strength of Soul Masters, the average strength of the Soul Masters of Xingluo Land would not be so low!"
However, Dai Yueyan's expression was stern, "Regardless of whether the other empires oppose it, this concerns our Xingluo Empire, and it's not their place to meddle!"
As he spoke, he exuded an aura of decisive royalty…
A trace of relief appeared on Dai Tianling's face, "Yue Yan…"
...
Several weeks later, Cai Yue'er approached Yang Nianxia and three others. Meeting their puzzled gazes, she said, "Yang Nianxia, Xu Yucheng, Zheng Yiran, Luo Guixing, due to your outstanding performance in the outer courtyard, and your soul power ranks have all surpassed that of a Soul King!"
"Therefore, after the deliberation of the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion, you have been approved to enter the Inner Court!"
Upon hearing this, the expressions on the faces of Yang Nianxia and the others did not show a hint of excitement; instead, they were somewhat complex...
Noticing this, Cai Yue'er's eyebrows knitted slightly, "What's wrong? You all seem unhappy. Could it be that you don't want to enter the Inner Court?"
The Inner Court had always been the dream destination of every outer courtyard student, yet these children appeared so indifferent!
She could even see reluctance in their eyes...
Yang Nianxia quickly spoke up, "Academy President Cai, it's not like that. We are excited and honored to be able to enter the Inner Court, but..."
His gaze shifted among the other three, as if he was struggling with whether or not to reveal that particular incident...
Zheng Yiran took a deep breath and said earnestly, "Academy President Cai, actually, we saw very clearly what happened on the day of the soul cannonball attack!"
Xu Yucheng clenched his fists, "Yes! Including how the Pavilion Master sacrificed himself to protect Shrek Academy!"
Cai Yue'er's face grew solemn, "You all know..."
Upon seeing her reaction, Luo Guixing added, "Don't worry, Academy President Cai, we haven't told any other students about this matter, only the four of us know!"
Cai Yue'er's expression suddenly softened, she sighed, "Don't worry, I'm not blaming you. It's just that I didn't expect anyone other than the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion to have seen it!"
However, she also roughly understood why Yang Nianxia and his friends felt displeased about entering the Inner Court!
Firstly, knowing the true nature of the Pavilion Master's sacrifice, they really could not be happy!!
Secondly, it indirectly denied their efforts!
Thinking of this, she explained word by word, "I have actually always noticed your efforts. Moreover, even if this incident had not happened, the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion had already decided to approve your entry into the Inner Court! So, do not carry any psychological burdens!"
"Of course, regarding the Pavilion Master's fall, to prevent the students from being terrified, please keep it confidential!"
It was then Yang Nianxia said respectfully, "Yes, Academy President Cai!"
Receiving Cai Yue'er's affirmation alone meant that their efforts had not been in vain!
Naturally, their mood was not as complicated as before!
Cai Yue'er smiled slightly, "Alright, now tidy up your things and take this to the Inner Court!"
Having said that, she took out several medals of Shrek Academy Inner Court student and passed them over...
After receiving the medals, they signaled their gratitude and quickly departed...
Watching their retreating figures, Cai Yue'er sighed helplessly, "They are indeed very proud children. I hope the truth about the Pavilion Master's fall can be hidden for a little while longer."
