Chapter 3280 Manipulation

As these words were spoken, a large question mark appeared above the heads of the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion present...

Yue Zhengyu was the first to rebuke, "Wulin, you couldn't have woken up confused, could you? Those inner court students have just completed our training, and you plan on sending them to the Dou Spirit Empire—aren't you sending them to their deaths?"

Ye Xinglan said with a solemn face, "Yes, the Dou Spirit Empire is filled with evil Soul Masters whose strength is generally very formidable. Even if their soul power rank and combat abilities have been somewhat improved, rashly going there would simply be impossible to survive!!"

Xie Xie also crossed his arms and said with some indignation, "I don't agree, isn't this just sending them to their deaths for nothing? If we really need to investigate the situation in the Dou Spirit Empire, it would be better for me to go alone. Even if I were discovered, it wouldn't result in needless casualties!!"

Yuanen Yehui pursed his lips, "I don't fully agree with Wulin's idea either. Once those inner court students go there, it's uncertain if they can come back alive. Any accident would be a huge loss to Shrek Academy as it is now!!"

Xu Lizhi muttered softly, "Wulin, I know you must have your reasons for this, but sending these inner court students to the Dou Spirit Empire to gather intelligence is still a bit far-fetched!"

He was very clear that Tang Wulin would not say such a thing for no reason, but he still found it hard to accept!!

Cai Yue'er hadn't expected such a proposal either and immediately asked, "Wulin, it's very dangerous to send these inner court students to the Dou Spirit Empire. If we really want to scout for intelligence, why not let Xie Xie go!"

"His power has reached that of an Ultimate Douluo—unless the Ghost Emperor personally takes action, there should be no one who can stop him!"

Yuanen Zhentian agreed, "Mm, I share the same thoughts as Elder Cai, Wulin, your suggestion seems a bit rash, let's find another method!"

Tang Yinmeng and Lan Muzi exchanged a look, and though they said nothing, their tightly furrowed brows already said it all...

Tang Wulin glanced at everyone and sighed, "Everyone, I know this is very dangerous for the inner court students, but one day, we will have to fight the evil Soul Masters of the Dou Spirit Empire, and this is inevitable!"

"Why not take this opportunity to let them face the evil Soul Masters directly and figure out the gap between them!!"

Actual combat is ultimately different from simulation, not to mention that evil Soul Masters, when fighting, will not care about anything!

Xie Xie couldn't help but retort, "Wulin, even if it's as you say, that's going too far, I disagree anyway!!"

It was hard to imagine, these inner court students facing hundreds or thousands of evil Soul Masters, how they could possibly escape!!

They were not like him, able to freely traverse space!!

The other Elders of the Sea God Pavilion also expressed their position, still disagreeing with the proposal...

Tang Wulin opened his mouth, but finally closed it...

He could use the authority of the Pavilion Master to coerce everyone to agree, but clearly, that would affect the internal unity of Shrek Academy!!

"Forget it, since everyone is so resistant, then pretend I never said anything!"

"However, it is necessary to investigate the situation in the Dou Spirit Empire!!"

The evil Soul Masters have been quiet for so long, they definitely wouldn't just sit idly by waiting for death—most likely they were plotting something!

Upon hearing this, Xie Xie stood up without any reservations, "Wulin, let me handle this matter. With my speed, traveling to and from the Dou Spirit Empire won't take much time!"

"And, by going alone, I can be more covert!!"

He didn't want to take a bunch of dead weight with him, as that would only hinder him!

Tang Wulin hesitated for a moment, "But..."

It was said that the number of evil Soul Masters transformed into Titled Douluo in the Dou Spirit Empire was not small!

Allowing Xie Xie to go by himself still carried a great risk!

Xie Xie raised his eyebrows, "What, you don't trust my ability?"

Tang Wulin felt somewhat helpless and had to compromise, "Xie Xie, I am of course clear on your ability, then I'll entrust this matter to you!"

"No problem, but there's no time to lose. I'll set out now. As for the other issues, you all continue the discussion!"

Having said that, he signaled to the people present and turned into a streak of light, disappearing without a trace…

Watching this scene, Cai Yue'er couldn't help but exclaim, "Xie Xie's speed has increased a lot, hasn't it? Even with spiritual power locking, we cannot track his movements!"

Lan Muzi softly said, "Mm, but this also shows that Lord Yun Ming's original choice was not wrong!!"

Tang Yinmeng teased from the side, "Mu Zi, what are you talking about? Are you saying that Wulin and the others are weak?"

Lan Muzi shook his head, "You know that's not what I meant!"

Seeing this, Cai Yue'er timely interrupted the farce…

"Alright, Wulin, apart from gathering information about the Douling Empire, you must have something else to say, right?"

Tang Wulin did not deny it and his gaze gradually turned serious, "Yes, there is something I need to ask everyone for help with!!"

...

Not long afterward!!

Several unconscious members of the Spirit Pagoda were lying on the ground of Shrek Academy's square…

Yuanen Yehui and others looked towards Tang Wulin and said, "Wulin, these are the Spirit Pagoda members we've captured who fell behind!"

Tang Wulin nodded and asked, "Everyone didn't reveal their identities, right?"

Xu Xiaoyan answered with confidence, "Mhm, they were knocked out by us even before they could react!"

"However, what exactly do you want to do, Wulin??"

"Although Gu Yue is not a petty person, she would probably be angry if she knew about this kind of action!"

The rest also cast curious glances…

Tang Wulin smiled slightly, "Don't worry, it won't provoke the Spirit Pagoda. I just have a guess that I need to confirm!"

Then, he walked over to these Spirit Pagoda members…

After crouching down slowly, he fully released his spiritual power, perceiving the state of their sea of consciousness…

Yue Zhengyu showed a look of disgust, "What is Wulin doing? It feels a bit perverse!"

Ye Xinglan pondered, "It looks like he's using spiritual power to sense the state of these Spirit Pagoda members, but I haven't sensed anything unusual either!"

Xu Lizhi rarely spoke, "Could it be that there is something on these Spirit Pagoda members that has attracted Wulin's attention?"

Yuanen Yehui was noncommittal, "Possibly, but let's wait for Wulin to explain himself!"

After waiting for tens of minutes, Tang Wulin finally retracted his spiritual power and opened his eyes…

"Just as I thought, now everything is clear!!"

Yue Zhengyu couldn't wait to ask, "Wulin, what have you understood? Explain it to us, quick!!"

Tang Wulin stood up leisurely and said in a complex tone, "Inside these Spirit Pagoda members, a certain mark has been engraved, which seems to be able to control their actions!!"
