Chapter 448

Half a month later, at night, Haishen Dao was overcrowded.

Countless middle-aged and elderly people representing their sects stood there, emitting an extremely overbearing aura.

The number of people gathered here was so large that even Haishen Dao could hardly accommodate them all; many sect representatives were assigned a small boat, waiting on Haishen Hu for the exciting moment to arrive.

Inside Haishen Ge, Tang Wulin looked at the list Bei Bei handed him and nodded in satisfaction.

Not bad, the effect of this Shilake Summons is truly better than imagined.

The list shows that twelve Super Douluo, sixty-three Honored Douluo, four hundred fifty-two Soul Douluo, and the number of Soul Saints and Soul Emperors is countless.

Among them, those from top sects are of the highest quality; for example, among those twelve Super Douluo, six are from the Body Sect, two from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect, one from the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and the remaining three also come from the ancient powerful sects of the original three countries of Douluo.

It can be said that these ancient sects, which have existed for thousands or even tens of thousands of years, are the core of this summons, and they also provided the largest number of Honored Douluo.

Adding the Haishen Ge members currently present in Haishen Ge, the number of Honored Douluo gathered on Haishen Dao has actually reached nearly a hundred, an unprecedented figure. What does this mean? Perhaps the Ri Yue Di Guo's advantage in soul tool technology is very strong, but when it comes to martial soul cultivation, the advantage still lies with the original three countries of Douluo.

With the aid of these powerful individuals, Tang Wulin has confidence to completely crush the Ri Yue Di Guo and the Holy Spirit Sect.

The Haishen Ge senior elders beside the table also showed satisfied smiles.

Compared to the Shilake Summons four thousand years ago, the quality of the strong individuals gathered this time is much greater.

On one hand, when Shilake Academy launched the Shilake Summons four thousand years ago, the war situation had already become quite tense; many strong individuals from the original three countries of Douluo had already died on the battlefield, and even those who survived might not dare to continue participating in the war, so the total number was considerably lower.

On the other hand, just before this Shilake Summons, the Ri Yue Di Guo had just kidnapped geniuses from the sects of the original three countries of Douluo, and the ones who rescued them were precisely from Shilake Academy; this undoubtedly intensified their hatred toward the Ri Yue Di Guo while deepening their gratitude toward Shilake Academy, so upon learning that Shilake Academy had issued the summons, they immediately rushed to support without hesitation, their enthusiasm far greater than four thousand years ago.

The senior elders who had originally been somewhat dissatisfied with Tang Wulin's actions, upon seeing this scene, had no choice but to change their minds and acknowledge the correctness of his decision.

At this moment, He Caitou ran in from outside, leaned close to Tang Wulin's ear, and said something.

Tang Wulin lightly nodded, stood up, clapped his hands, and focused everyone's gaze on himself.

Everyone, the time has come; we should go out and declare our stance.

Merely gathering strong individuals is not enough; only Shilake Academy, as the mainstay, taking action can truly coalesce their strength.

Beams of light shot out from Haishen Ge, flew into the sky, and instantly attracted the gazes of the crowd waiting on Haishen Dao.

Hovering in the air were more than twenty Honored Douluo-level experts from Haishen Ge, among whom the Super Douluo alone exceeded ten.

This is the foundation of Shilake Academy; as long as one cultivates to become an Honored Douluo at Shilake Academy, the probability of becoming a Super Douluo is far higher than elsewhere. Cough cough.

Tang Wulin cleared his throat and used soul power to transmit his voice across the entire range of Haishen Dao.

Thank you all for responding to the Shilake Summons and gathering at Shilake Academy.

I believe you have all heard the news that the Ri Yue Di Guo has formally declared war on us; that is also the reason I have gathered you here today.

Perhaps some reclusive sects are not very sensitive to changes in the outside world; therefore, let me now introduce the current situation, hoping that those who are well informed can wait a moment.

About two years ago, the Ri Yue Di Guo enthroned a new emperor, his name is Xu Tianran.

As the new emperor of the Ri Yue Di Guo, Xu Tianran harbors great ambition: to invade the three countries and rename the Douluo Continent the Ri Yue Continent is his lifelong aspiration.

To this end, he even allied with an organization called the Holy Spirit Sect, composed entirely of Evil Soul Masters; he made the Holy Spirit Sect the state religion, allowing them to harm his own nation's citizens, and attempted to join forces with them to launch war.

Those gathered here are strong individuals of the Soul Master World; I believe you can all guess why the Holy Spirit Sect is eager to wage war.

Correct, they not only want to use the citizens of the Ri Yue Di Guo as cultivation materials, but also wish to control the entire continent, turning the whole land into their training ground, and to slaughter the entire Douluo Continent!

Upon hearing Tang Wulin's words, the faces of many representatives from reclusive sects changed.

As Tang Wulin said, in fact, many reclusive sects have little understanding of the changes in the world situation.

It is simply because the recent heavy propaganda from the original three countries of Douluo let them know about the Shilake Summons, and encouraged by their longing for Shilake, they came here.

At this moment, upon learning from Tang Wulin about the cooperation between the Holy Spirit Sect and the Ri Yue Di Guo, they couldn't help but stare in shock.

They may not understand soul tools, nor the shifting patterns of the Soul Master World, but they absolutely cannot fail to understand Evil Soul Masters.

Evil Soul Masters are enemies of all Soul Masters, and indeed of all humanity; this kind of existence that enhances its own strength by killing humans can hardly be called human in some respects—how could the Ri Yue Di Guo choose to cooperate with them? Why are there so few Evil Soul Masters in the original three countries of Douluo, to the point of being insignificant? The Shilake Surveillance Team's relentless hunting of Evil Soul Masters is one reason, but more importantly, any ruler with even a bit of sense would never allow such an anti-human creature to form an organization.

As a result, they now learn that the Ri Yue Di Guo not only condones the Holy Spirit Sect using its own citizens as cultivation materials, but also attempts to drag the entire continent into ruin; their first reaction is strikingly the same: 'Are these people crazy?' In the high sky, looking down, they saw many Soul Masters below showing surprised expressions, and Tang Wulin silently nodded in his heart.

He infused a certain amount of mental power into his speech, enabling the Soul Masters below to hear it more clearly.

Having successfully aroused everyone's interest, it is now time to begin the next stage.
