Dou Spirit Empire! Inside the Soul Guidance Room!

Emperor Xue Yuntian looked down at the Disciples from Tang Sect and spoke, "Thank you, Disciples of Tang Sect Soul Guidance Hall. It is thanks to you that our Dou Spirit Empire's soul tools have been able to take their first step!"

During this period, the number of Soul Masters in the Dou Spirit Empire had exploded, and the very first Seventh-grade Soul Master even appeared!

Although this was nothing to the other two major empires, it was of great significance to the Dou Spirit Empire!

The leading Disciple of the Soul Guidance Hall bowed slightly, "Your Majesty, you are too kind. This is all part of our duty!"

Having taken so many resources from the Dou Spirit Empire, it was only right to show results, otherwise, it would tarnish the reputation of the Tang Sect!

Seeing their response, Xue Yuntian spoke again, "In that case, the agreement between Tang Sect and the Dou Spirit Empire is now fulfilled. You all may leave now. Of course, if there are any Soul Instructors who wish to join our Dou Spirit Empire, I welcome you just the same!"

Upon hearing this, a small portion of the Tang Sect Soul Guidance Hall Disciples looked at each other, seemingly contemplating something...

Li Yunzhe, standing to the side, witnessed all this and furrowed his brow, suddenly reminding, "Your Majesty, such words might not be appropriate, might they not?"

From the Emperor's words, it was evident that there was an underlying intention to poach talents!

As the head of the Tang Sect Branch, he naturally could not tolerate such occurrences!

However, Xue Yuntian simply smiled slightly, "I am merely providing these Disciples of Tang Sect with an alternative choice; there are no other implications."

This seemingly harmless demeanor left Li Yunzhe unable to discern the Emperor's true intentions!

With no other choice, he finally spoke, "All Disciples of Tang Sect Soul Guidance Hall, follow me back to the Branch immediately."

The Disciples from Tang Sect said in unison, "Yes!"

Only then did Li Yunzhe turn to Xue Yuntian and cupped his fist, "Then, Your Majesty, we take our leave, hoping for future opportunities of cooperation!"

Xue Yuntian nodded slightly, "Hmm, there will be opportunities!"

Not until Li Yunzhe led the Disciples of Tang Sect Soul Guidance Hall away did Xue Yuntian glance sideways toward the dark corner and asked, "How goes the task I assigned?"

A Soul Master suddenly appeared, bowing deeply, "Your Majesty, after our efforts, a portion of the Disciples from Tang Sect's Soul Guidance Hall are very willing to work for our Dou Spirit Empire!"

Xue Yuntian could not help but express his satisfaction, "Well done!"

What the Dou Spirit Empire had in plentiful supply were precious resources, which just so happened to be what Soul Masters needed most!

It was precisely because of this that they were able to persuade the Disciples of Tang Sect Soul Guidance Hall to stay!

Why be a mediocre Disciple at Tang Sect when they could make a name for themselves in the Dou Spirit Empire?

He then waved his hand dismissively, "You may leave now, see to it that the Tang Sect Disciples are well taken care of, don't let them be disappointed!"

The Soul Master bowed his head, "As you command, Your Majesty!"

...

After returning to the Tang Sect Branch, Li Yunzhe immediately carried out an inspection of the Soul Guidance Hall Disciples...

The results, however, left him fuming with rage!

For at least one-third of the Soul Guidance Hall Disciples had chosen to stay in the Dou Spirit Empire!

He clenched his fists, exclaiming angrily, "Damn Dou Spirit Empire, playing such underhanded tricks!"

Had he known earlier, he would never have agreed to collaborate with the Dou Spirit Empire!

He immediately contacted headquarters...

Once connected, Li Yunzhe tried to contain the anger within him, "Sect Leader, Yunzhe has an urgent matter to report!"

Zang Xin on the other end, sounded puzzled, "What's the matter? Does it have to do with the Dou Spirit Empire?"

Li Yunzhe explained, "Yes, Sect Leader. During this period, Emperor Xue Yuntian of the Dou Spirit Empire secretly won over a portion of our Soul Guidance Hall Disciples with exceptionally generous terms, making them stay in the Dou Spirit Empire!"

"Should we demand an explanation from the Douling Empire's royal household?"

This was a complete provocation toward the Tang Sect!

Zang Xin pursed his lips and spoke in an extremely calm tone, "No need, disciples who can be easily swayed are no longer worthy of being a part of our Tang Sect!"

Although he had anticipated that the Douling Empire might take covert action, he didn't expect the other side to make no attempt to conceal it!

Li Yunzhe gritted his teeth, "But... the disciples of the Soul Guidance Hall possess some of the Tang Sect's secrets that must not be divulged!"

Zang Xin immediately guessed his thoughts, "You're worried... that after knowing these techniques, the Douling Empire will be able to assemble soul tools on their own?"

Li Yunzhe couldn't deny it, "Yes!"

With that being the case, the conditions that Zang Xin had initially proposed to limit the Douling Empire would become meaningless!

"It's fine, I have a clear understanding. The techniques that the Soul Guidance Hall disciples can teach the Douling Empire are not many and will not affect the Tang Sect in any way!"

If they thought that they could break such a restriction simply by bribing a few Tang Sect disciples, they were underestimating the sect that had a tradition of tens of thousands of years!

Li Yunzhe then breathed a sigh of relief, "Since the Sect Leader says so, then Yunzhe feels reassured!"

Unexpectedly, the Sect Leader had already anticipated the current situation and had thought of the countermeasures!

There was no need for him to worry then!

...

Spirit Pagoda!

Gu Yue was leading Tang Wulin around for a tour...

Suddenly, Tang Wulin pointed at an instrument arranged in front of them, curious, "Gu Yue, what is this? It feels very similar to the Spirit Ascension Platform!"

Gu Yue glanced to the side and patiently explained, "This is the Ten Thousand Beast Platform, which was developed based on the Spirit Ascension Platform, and its effects are significantly better than the latter!"

"But besides myself, no one else has experienced it yet. How about it, want to give it a try?"

Tang Wulin hesitated for a moment, "Is that okay? Won't that leak the secrets of the Spirit Pagoda?"

Gu Yue laughed softly, "Don't worry, after all, I also participated in the research of the Ten Thousand Beast Platform!"

There was one thing she did not mention, which was that the concept of the Ten Thousand Beast Platform had been proposed by her!

After hearing these words, Tang Wulin's curiosity overcame his reason, "Then I'll try and see how the Ten Thousand Beast Platform differs from the Spirit Ascension Platform!"

Gu Yue then approached the Ten Thousand Beast Platform and turned on the switch...

Visible to the naked eye, a light door that radiated an ethereal light appeared in front of them...

The ordinary Spirit Ascension Platform uses an apparatus to connect, allowing the user's spirit to enter the platform and simulate their own form!

However, the Ten Thousand Beast Platform is different, as it allows users to enter with their "Soul Master's True Body," the two are vastly different!

Tang Wulin gazed through the light door, surprised, "What a cool entrance, is this also your idea, Gu Yue?"

Gu Yue shook her head, "No, this was proposed by the Pagoda Master, saying it's to make the Ten Thousand Beast Platform feel more technologically advanced!"

She paused for a moment, then said gravely, "Of course, the most important thing is that the pain levels inside the Ten Thousand Beast Platform are the same as in reality!"

"If one cannot endure the pain, they need to exit immediately, otherwise, it is very possible that their Spirit Sea could be injured!"
