Having noticed how late it was, Yue Zhengyu raised an eyebrow and asked in surprise, "Wulin, what were you just muttering about under your breath?"
Tang Wulin snapped back to reality and sighed, "It's nothing, I just feel like becoming a god is still a long way off for us!"
Even for himself, despite possessing a godhood, he had failed to break through twice!
For the other members of Shrek's Seven Monsters, it would probably be even more difficult!
Yue Zhengyu, however, did not agree, "Not at all, Wulin, don't you already have a godhood? I'm sure it won't be too many years before you can break through to godhood!"
Of the former, his possibility of becoming a god was perhaps the most hopeful within Shrek Academy right now!
Tang Wulin gave a wry smile, "Zhengyu, you're thinking too simply. Having a godhood doesn't mean you can become a God!"
"Otherwise, why would I have failed to break through multiple times, still stuck at the Ultimate Douluo level and unable to advance further!"
Although he hadn't succeeded in breaking through, at least his soul power rank hadn't fallen, or else he would have had to spend several more years!
Yue Zhengyu seemed to sense a bit of self-blame and immediately cheered him up with a smile, "Ay, Wulin, you just lack confidence in yourself!"
"Your father is the Sea God, and you possess godhood with such excellent talent. If the gods of the Divine Realm aren't blind, how could they refuse such a talented person to join them?"
Tang Wulin was stunned for a moment, then said, "Zhengyu, then I'll take your auspicious words!"
"But if possible, I still hope that we all can ascend to the Divine Realm together!"
Yue Zhengyu's expression instantly turned awkward, "Wulin, to be honest, except for you, none of us have received a godhood!"
"Without a godhood, no matter how much we cultivate, we can't become gods!"
Given their talents, they should have been quickly noticed by some god and thus inherit a godhood!
But now with the Divine Realm isolated from the Lower Realm, this completely cut off their possibility of breaking through to godhood!
Tang Wulin didn't know how to respond, "This...indeed, I was able to get a godhood only because of my father!"
"For everyone else, it might..."
Not everyone, like himself, had a substantial background in the Divine Realm!
Yue Zhengyu could see what he meant and joked, "Wulin, don't feel burdened. Even if we don't break through to godhood, so what? We might as well stay in the Lower Realm our whole lives!"
"Having lived here for decades, saying goodbye would actually be hard!"
But did he really think that way?
The answer was no!
No Soul Master did not yearn to become a god!
He felt the same, but continuing to dwell on it was also pointless!
Tang Wulin's eyes suddenly hardened, "Zhengyu, Teacher Xu's position in the Divine Realm should be even higher than my father's. If he could return, perhaps everyone would have a chance at godhood!"
From the fact that his father could not defeat the Abyssal Emperor while Teacher Xu easily subdued him, this alone was enough to show the latter's power and status were higher than the former's!
If his father could secure him a godhood, then Teacher Xu should certainly be able to get one for everyone!
Unless, the godhoods in the Divine Realm really were scarce to some extent!
Yue Zhengyu's face brightened, and he excitedly tapped his own head, "Right! I nearly forgot, aside from your father being the Sea God, Teacher Xu, he is also a Divine King in the Divine Realm!!"
"He definitely could use his authority to secure godhoods for us!"
So it seems, becoming a god might not be impossible after all!
Tang Wulin also didn't want to discourage the other party, so he covered his mouth to remind him, "Ahem... Zheng Yu, you just spoke as if it was a given. Whether you can obtain godhood still depends on whether Teacher Xu is willing to help!"
Upon hearing this, Yue Zhengyu's eyes filled with a hint of disdain, "Wulin, it's surprising that you've been with Teacher Xu longer than I have, and you still haven't figured out what kind of person he is?"
"As long as we bring it up proactively, Teacher Xu will definitely not refuse!"
Tang Wulin paused, then covered his forehead and said, "That's true. I remember when Ye Hui wanted to increase her strength, Teacher Xu really did manage to find her several hundred-thousand-year soul rings!"
"The matter of godhood might indeed be possible. Of course, all of this is based on the assumption that Teacher Xu can return."
"I believe Teacher Xu will come back. A mere Abyssal Emperor cannot be his match!"
However, just as they were about to continue their conversation, Xie Xie suddenly appeared and said with displeasure, "Wulin, Zheng Yu, I wondered why I couldn't find you. Turns out you were hiding here and whispering!"
Yue Zhengyu retorted, "Xie Xie, who's whispering? Wulin and I are discussing becoming Gods!"
Tang Wulin ignored all this and countered, "Xie Xie, is there something?"
Xie Xie nodded slightly, "Mm, Elder Cai has asked me to notify all the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion. She said that there is an important matter to discuss, although I'm not too clear about the specifics!"
"However, it seems to be related to you, Wulin!"
Tang Wulin was stunned for a moment but quickly responded, "Related to me? Alright, Zheng Yu and I will head over right away. You go ahead and inform the others!"
…
Sea God's Pavilion!
Once everyone had gathered…
Tang Yinmeng couldn't wait to ask Cai Yue'er, "Elder Cai, why have you suddenly called a meeting of the Sea God's Pavilion? Hasn't it been somewhat frequent lately?"
Seeing this, Lan Muzi reminded her, "Yin Meng, if it weren't important, Elder Cai wouldn't call a Sea God's Pavilion meeting on her own initiative!"
Tang Yinmeng gave him a look, "Aye, I know. I'm just asking Elder Cai, aren't I?"
Cai Yue'er didn't show any displeasure and immediately said, "Actually, I originally only planned to call Wulin here. However, everyone here is also qualified to know about this matter!"
Upon hearing this, everyone showed a curious expression…
Tang Wulin directly said, "Elder Cai, please just tell us what it is!"
Upon hearing that, Cai Yue'er explained, "Just now, I went to a secret room and discovered that something unusual had appeared there."
Tang Wulin furrowed his brow, "Unusual?"
Cai Yue'er nodded and continued, "Mm, a male voice echoed in my Sea of Consciousness, telling you, Wulin, to go to the secret room."
Upon hearing this, Tang Wulin fell into deep thought, "A male voice... secret room, wait, could it be…"
His pupils suddenly dilated as if he had realized something…
This immediately caught the attention of everyone else, who began to ask questions…
"Wulin, why that expression? Do you know something?"
"Yes, do tell us!"
"Hehe, Wulin, don't tell me you've done something secretive, like concealing a beauty in a golden house!"
"How could Wulin do such a thing? If I am not wrong, this so-called male voice should be... the Sea God!"
