Chapter 1577: Confrontation! (Please Subscribe)_1

"What? There are so many evil Soul Masters, when did they ambush here? Why didn't we feel a trace of their presence!"

"No use talking about it now, they must have used Shield-Type Soul Power and then employed some secret soul skill that lets them stick to the buildings or shadows!"

"Damn it, with thousands of those evil Soul Masters, we simply can't hold them off with just us!"

"We must hold them off even if we can't. The consequences will be unimaginable once these evil Soul Masters get into the imperial palace!"

"But... but my legs are shaking, I can't... I simply can't move! Their... their aura is too strong!"

Under such an overwhelming pressure, these mere dozens of soldiers, let alone fighting back, could hardly even budge!

The Dark Blood Devil, who stood at the forefront of the evil Soul Masters, said in a chilling and piercing tone, "Faithful followers of the Holy Spirit Cult, now, immediately use your most brutal means to slaughter everyone in the Star Luo Imperial Palace! Hahahaha!"

In an instant, these evil Soul Masters released their Martial Souls, charging like wild beasts, with each one unleashing their soul skills...

Knowing there was no retreat, the soldiers of the Xingluo Empire shouted, "If you want to break into the imperial palace, step over our dead bodies first!"

"How dare these lowly evil Soul Masters run amok in front of the imperial palace!"

"Stop them, as long as we wait for reinforcements, we can capture all these evil Soul Masters in one fell swoop!"

Though they spoke bravely, the reality was harsh. The soldiers outside the Star Luo Empire Palace who tried to block their attack were killed in minutes, turned into bloody corpses...

Seeing this scene, the soldiers inside the gate of the palace urgently said, "Quick, activate the Defensive Soul Guidance Device to stop these fiends!"

But just as they were about to activate the Defensive Soul Guidance Device, everyone's head made a "crack" sound, and they fell powerlessly to the cold ground...

The one who acted was none other than Nanali, still lurking within the palace!

And so, a multitude of evil Soul Masters began to wildly rush into the Star Luo Imperial Palace...

...

Suddenly, a member of the Royal family of the Xingluo Empire hurriedly ran to Dai Tianling's side, panting, "Your... Your Majesty, it's bad news, the evil Soul Masters have breached the palace's defenses and are pouring in en masse!"

Dai Tianling's pupils contracted sharply, and he immediately stood up from his seat, "What? An attack, and why weren't the Defensive Soul Guidance Devices activated immediately?"

The evil Soul Masters had moved quicker than he imagined!

The former, grinding his teeth, said, "Your Majesty... it seems the evil Soul Masters had already figured out the entire layout of the palace, and before we could start the devices, they eliminated the soldiers guarding them!"

Dai Tianling's face darkened, and he turned his gaze towards Xu Sheng and Mu Ye, "Elder Xu, Sect Master Mu..."

Before he could finish his sentence, both understood what he meant and nodded slightly...

Subsequently, Secretary-General Pan Wen, upon receiving the news, inhaled sharply and, bracing himself, announced, "Due to an unforeseen incident... this exchange competition is temporarily suspended! All Soul Masters, prepare for battle!"

After this statement, there was immediate discontent among many students...

"Prepare for battle? What does that mean?"

"What exactly happened? A halt to the young Soul Masters competition is one thing, but suspending the exchange as well, is the Royal family of the Xingluo Empire joking with us?"

"Why don't they even provide a clear reason for the suspension; if I ever come to participate again, I'd be a fool!"

"What the hell is the point of having this crappy exchange competition if they keep stopping it? Do they really think we're here to sightsee?"

The teams from Shrek Academy and the Body Sect on the stage also realized something was amiss and chose to stop their match...

Xie Xie frowned and said, "Huh? Why have they stopped the match? What is the royal household of the Xingluo Empire up to?"

Xu Xiaoyan angrily said, "Exactly, we were about to win!"

Ye Xinglan squinted her eyes and speculated, "Could it be they're afraid we'll beat the Monster Academy, and embarrass Xingluo Empire's Emperor, so they deliberately stopped the exchange competition?"

Tang Wulin shook his head and spoke in a deep voice, "No... it's not that simple! Feel it carefully!"

Wang Kai picked up the conversation, "Such a strong presence of evil, there must be quite a few Evil Soul Masters who have entered the imperial palace and are surging towards our location!"

A disciple from the Body Sect said in disbelief, "That can't be true... This is the Star Luo Imperial Palace, are these Holy Spirit Cult's Evil Soul Masters out of their minds?"

"I wish I could agree, but if these Evil Soul Masters dared to launch an attack, they must be confident. I'm afraid there will be rivers of blood again today!"

True to their words, while they were discussing, a dense group of Evil Soul Masters appeared in their line of sight and encircled everyone on the competition ground in a ring formation...

And right in front of the Evil Soul Masters stood the Dark Blood Devil and others with the highest soul power ranks!

Halosa, wearing a cold smile, projected his Soul Power into his voice so that everyone could hear him clearly...

"It seems that this exchange competition is quite lively, but I wonder how welcoming you are to the participation of our Holy Spirit Cult!"

At this moment, the soul masters with bewildered faces finally understood the "accident" Secretary-General Pan had referred to!

"What, it's the Evil Soul Masters from the Holy Spirit Cult, is this the 'accident' that Secretary-General Pan mentioned?"

"It's over... we're doomed. With so many Evil Soul Masters, there must be at least a thousand, right? Can we really hold them off?"

"How could they break into the imperial palace so easily? Has the Royal family of the Xingluo Empire taken this exchange competition seriously at all?"

"The number of Evil Soul Masters is too large. Not only the Xingluo royal household but even first-rate forces like Spirit Pagoda and Shrek Academy would find it tricky!"

Dai Tianling also heard Halosa's words and thought to himself, "Holy Spirit Cult... I see, these guys have been recruiting Evil Soul Masters since they infiltrated the Xingluo Land."

Otherwise, the native Evil Soul Masters of the Xingluo Land couldn't possibly undertake such a bold action!

With this in mind, his expression unchanged, he looked at Halosa and the others and said coldly, "Holy Spirit Cult's vermin, you're way too confident! Do you really think the Royal family of the Xingluo Empire is made of clay?"

For some reason, upon seeing the Evil Soul Masters, the anger accumulated in his heart because of Dai Yun'er instantly erupted...

Halosa was utterly dismissive, "I believe His Majesty the Emperor hasn't grasped the situation. Right now, it is our Holy Spirit Cult that has the upper hand!"

If the Xingluo Empire's Emperor had any confidence... it would be in those empire soldiers who had quietly gathered around, but they were bound to disappoint him!
