As soon as these words were spoken, they immediately provoked an outburst of anger from the members of the War God Hall...
"Hmph, dream on, we of the War God Hall will never become lapdogs for the Holy Spirit Cult!"
"That's right, even if our bodies are left to rot in the wilderness, we'll make you lot pay a price."
"A bunch of inhuman beasts, you're not even worthy of us contemplating surrender!"
The evil Soul Master's eyes grew colder, "Is that so? Then let me repeat it, those of you willing to join our Holy Spirit Cult now, I guarantee you'll live!"
Who would refuse the chance to stay alive?
But not all the members of the legion were like these three Battle Soul Masters, preferring death to dishonor!
Noticing something amiss, Mo Zihong immediately interrupted, "Enough talk, if you want to fight, then fight, we of the War God Hall will not be swayed!"
But in the next second, the expressions on the faces of him and the other two Battle Soul Masters froze...
From the ranks of the War God Hall, a few members walked out one after another, all with their heads bowed, making it impossible to see their expressions...
Clearly, between dignity and life, they chose the latter!
Choking with fury, Mo Zihong spit out a mouthful of blood and glared at these legion members with disbelief, "You... you actually..."
He couldn't believe it, that the members of his War God Hall would betray them in the end!!
Hearing these words, the heads of those who chose to surrender dropped even lower...
"Sorry... we... we just want to live!"
"There are thousands of evil Soul Masters here, even if we fight to the death we wouldn't hurt them in the slightest...it's better...better to choose to live humbly."
"I'm sorry... in order to live, I... I can only join the Holy Spirit Cult!"
This scene made the smile on the face of the leading evil Soul Master even wider, and he mocked without mercy, "Hehehe... it seems the members of the War God Hall are not as resolute as imagined, after all!"
Nangong Yi clenched his teeth and said sharply, "Enough nonsense, from the moment they chose to surrender, they no longer belong to the War God Hall!"
Jiang Zhanheng also chimed in, "That's right, the true members of the War God Hall are definitely not those who would shamefully cling to life!"
These words seemed to reach the faltering legion members, who then suppressed the urge to surrender and their eyes filled with a strong will to fight once again...
That's right, they were members of the War God Hall, the most trustworthy people under the command of the Battle Gods, how could they disgrace themselves at the moment of crisis!!
Seeing his words no longer swayed the emotions of the War God Hall's members, the leading evil Soul Master lost interest...
With a sinister tone, he said, "Fine, if you do not wish to surrender, then go to your deaths!!!!"
As his words fell, the surrounding evil Soul Masters all burst forth terrifying soul power fluctuations, attacking the people of the War God Hall from all directions...
"Warriors of the War God Hall, fight them with all you've got!!"
Following Mo Zihong's shout, the members of the War God Hall also unleashed their Martial Souls, fearlessly charging towards the numerically superior evil Soul Masters...
In just a few minutes, blood and severed limbs had already scattered across the whole ground, like a purgatory...
Everywhere was filled with a nauseating stench of blood...
...
In the War God Hall, Chen Xinjie was seen clutching at his chest, frowning slightly...
```
He murmured softly, "Why do I always have this uneasy feeling in my heart? Could there be a problem on Mo Zihong's side?"
Guan Yue pondered and said, "That shouldn't be possible... Although Mo Zihong is only level 96, he is indeed the strongest control-class Battle Soul Master of the War God Hall. Plus, there are two other War Gods with him; there shouldn't be any problem!"
Chen Xinjie could only sigh, "I hope so. By the way, how prepared are the other forces?"
Tomorrow is the day to unite and eliminate the Holy Spirit Cult; no mistakes can be made!
Otherwise, it would bring disaster to all the forces and even to the entire Soul Land!
Guan Yue was stunned for a moment, then explained, "Aside from the sects and academies that did not participate, most forces are already prepared! However..."
Chen Xinjie asked in confusion, "However, what?"
Guan Yue's expression darkened, "Hall Master, I feel that this operation to annihilate the Holy Spirit Cult might not be so simple."
"From the news passed on by the agents we've planted, the Vice Sect Hierarch of the Holy Spirit Cult and many powerful evil Soul Masters seem to have rushed to Xingluo Land!"
Chen Xinjie's pupils suddenly constricted, "That is to say, the Holy Spirit Cult has already evacuated in advance?"
If that were the case, their operation would be utterly wasted!
Who knew, Guan Yue shook her head...
After pausing for a moment, she continued, "What's strange is precisely this point, so I suspect that the Holy Spirit Cult's sudden exposure of their location is to lure us into a trap!"
Chen Xinjie took a deep breath, "Guan Yue, aren't you being overly worried... If it really is a trap, with the means of the Holy Spirit Cult, they should not be dispersing their forces!"
Guan Yue opened her mouth but didn't know what to say...
All this was merely her speculation, without any evidence!
...
Sea God Pavilion!
Yun Ming, sitting in the chief seat, his deep eyes flickered a few times, "Tomorrow is the day for the eradication of the Holy Spirit Cult; it seems that Elder Xu cannot return ahead of time."
He had intended to go personally, but considering the possibility of Shrek Academy being attacked, he had to change plans at the last moment and sent other Elders of the Sea God Pavilion instead...
Cai Yue'er nodded slightly, "Hmm, this was also within our expectations. After all, the Xingluo Land Exchange Competition has several hundred teams participating. It's clearly impossible to conclude it in such a short time!"
Feng Wu Yu propped his chin and said, "Even without Elder Xu, with the joint efforts of the major forces, we should have no fear of the Holy Spirit Cult!"
Long Yeyue glanced at him, her expression grave, "That may be so, but the reaction of the Holy Spirit Cult is a bit too calm; perhaps it's a ruse!"
Tang Yinmeng clenched her fists and said coldly, "Even if it's a ruse, we have no choice but to move forward with determination!! Otherwise... the influence of Shrek Academy and all the major forces will continue to decline!!"
It was said that once, Shrek Academy, in the matter of eradicating evil Soul Masters, could rally most sects and forces by taking the lead...
But ever since the Inner Court suffered heavy losses, and they found no way to handle the evil Soul Masters of the Holy Spirit Cult,...
The number of forces willing to participate in this eradication endeavor was no more than a mere dozen!
Just a simple comparison reveals the stark difference in Shrek Academy's influence between the two periods—it's completely not on the same level!!
