Chapter 3284: Strength_1
```
Worship Hall!
Grand Elder Qiandaoliu suddenly stopped his actions and then raised his eyes to look at the ceiling...
He blurted out without warning, "Martial Soul City over there should have already started that so-called friendship match, right?"
He was absolutely dismissive of the friendship match proposed by Pope Bibi Dong and Emperor Xue Ye of the Tiandou Empire!
Because Martial Soul Hall and the royal household merely maintained a surface relationship, they were bound to break apart sooner or later!
The so-called friendship had no meaning whatsoever!!
While he was pondering, Gold Crocodile Douluo strode into the room, "Big Brother!"
Seeing the latter's arrival, Qiandaoliu came back to his senses and asked with confusion, "Jin E, what brings you here, is there something the matter?"
Normally, if there was nothing important, no one would enter!
Gold Crocodile Douluo inquired bluntly, "Big Brother, I just overheard outside that you were talking about the friendship match being held in Martial Soul City, right?"
Qiandaoliu did not deny it but instead lightly confirmed with a "Hmm..."
It was then that Gold Crocodile Douluo continued, "According to the news sent back by the people I dispatched, this friendship match began a few days ago and is currently at a halt!"
"It seems to be because the students from Heaven Dou Royal Academy and Shenfeng Academy both fell unconscious during the battle, unable to determine a winner!"
Hearing this, Qiandaoliu finally showed a few threads of interest and exclaimed with surprise, "A bunch of kids playing house and they actually fought until they lost consciousness? The students from these two academies seem rather interesting!"
A fight where Soul Power hadn't reached Soul King level basically amounted to nothing!
Yet the fact that this friendship match had incidents of battles leading to unconsciousness was somewhat spirited!!
Gold Crocodile Douluo's eyes flickered as he suggested, "Big Brother, that Tang San has been cultivating in the Worship Hall for a while, why don't we let him participate as well."
"As long as you give the order, I'm sure that Bi Bidong guy won't dare to talk back!"
They needed to confirm just how strong Tang San was now and whether he was worth the subsequent cultivation!!
Qiandaoliu was dumbfounded by the latter's suggestion...
He said with a mix of laughter and tears, "Sending Tang San to participate in the friendship match? Jin E, are you serious? Bibi Dong seems to take this competition very seriously, and I fear she won't easily agree!"
Although he could use a more forceful attitude to make her comply, it would only intensify her hatred towards the Worship Hall!
After all, she was still the Pope of Martial Soul Hall, and if they were to irreparably fall out, it would only result in mutual destruction!!
Gold Crocodile Douluo felt no sense of impropriety and spoke again, "Big Brother, look at what you're saying, Bibi Dong can only sit firmly as the Pope because of the Worship Hall, not because of those two loyal dogs by her side!"
"Besides, if it really comes to a falling out, our Worship Hall could easily wipe them out!!"
After speaking, a hint of pride crossed his cheeks...
He had absolute confidence in the guest elders of the Worship Hall!
Qiandaoliu looked at him deeply, sighed and said, "You really underestimate Bibi Dong too much!"
He knew her all too well and was certain that she could reach the Ultimate Douluo level in the future, even surpassing it wasn't impossible!!
By then, Martial Soul Hall might just unify the human Continent!
This was the reason he had yet to make a move to eliminate her!!
Gold Crocodile Douluo furrowed his brows, "Big Brother, I'm a little confused about what you mean..."
Big Brother seemed a bit too unusual today, even speaking up for that Bibi Dong!
One must know that she was the perpetrator who killed the previous Pope!!
Qiandaoliu pursed his lips, "Jin E, although I personally would love to kill Bibi Dong to avenge Xun Ji, we have to look at the long-term goals, having her as Martial Soul Hall's Pope is the most suitable..."
```
The Gold Crocodile Douluo once again objected, "But..."
Before he could finish, he was impatiently interrupted by the other...
"Alright, let's put an end to this matter!"
"Not long ago, I personally tested that lad Tang San and found that his strength is top-notch amongst his peers. He will inevitably become a formidable force in the future!"
"For this reason, we absolutely cannot let him break free from the control of the Worship Hall. If necessary, we can even forcefully eliminate him!"
The Gold Crocodile Douluo was stunned...
It was one thing to praise Bibi Dong, but now he was giving such a high evaluation to Tang San!
If not for the unmistakable aura, he would even suspect that the person in front of him was an imposter!
With no other choice, he could only agree and say, "I understand, big brother!"
Zhang Huanyun saw what he meant and sighed, "You don't need to comfort me. There are bound to be sacrifices when fighting against the Holy Spirit Cult, but I didn't expect them to send the Darkness Phoenix to attack the Blood Dragon Squad!"
If he wasn't mistaken, the enemy's initial target must have been the captain of the Blood Dragon Squad, Tang Wulin!
Luckily, he wasn't traveling with the Blood Dragon Squad!
Blood One pursed his lips, "There's no helping it. The Blood Dragon Squad was up against a level 98, and possibly even a level 99 powerhouse. It's already remarkable that there are survivors!"
In his estimation, it was very likely that the Blood Dragon Squad would be annihilated!
But it seemed that Aruheng from the Body Sect, using the sect's secret techniques, managed to hold on for a while, or they wouldn't have been able to wait for their support!
How could Zhang Huanyun not know this? He regained his normal expression...
"Since it has happened, there's no use running from it. Let's go, back to the Blood God Army!"
...
However, Tang Wulin and the others who returned to the Blood God Army found that something was amiss...
Xie Xie swept his gaze around, furrowing his brows as he said, "Wulin, something doesn't feel right. Why do all the soldiers of the Blood God Army look so grim?"
Yuanen Yehui, who was next to him, added with certainty, "Yeah, all the way here, almost everyone had a look of mourning. Could something have happened while we were away?"
Yue Zhengyu shrugged his shoulders, "That's simple to find out, isn't it? Just ask."
In his view, it shouldn't be anything as serious as an evil Soul Master launching an attack, otherwise, the Blood God Army wouldn't remain so calm!
Tang Wulin nodded and then approached one of the soldiers...
Before he could ask, the soldier gave a military salute and then said, "Major General Tang Wulin and all other officers, the commander has been waiting in the meeting room. An extremely important matter needs to be communicated!"
Tang Wulin, puzzled, pressed on, "Hm? Did the commander mention what it's about?"
The soldier hesitated for a moment and then hesitated to say, "This... Please go to the meeting room, where the commander will explain it."
The Dou Spirit Empire!
Sitting on the throne, Xue Yuntian was looking solemnly at the kneeling Foreign Affairs Daijin below...
He was the first to speak, "What's the situation?"
The latter seemed to remember the terrible scene from not long ago and bowed his head...
