Chapter 65 Part 2 Shrek
the next day.
Poison Immortal personally visited the city, skinned and beheaded Nightmare Douluo's corpse, and hung it in front of the east gate of Shrek City.
Of the four gates of Shrek City, the East Gate belongs exclusively to Shrek Academy.
Poison's actions were tantamount to slapping Shrek Academy hard in the face in front of the entire continent.
Shrek Academy was furious.
Enraged, Xuanzi attacked Du Busi, but after dozens of rounds, Du Busi knocked him down from the sky with a single punch.
Facing the group of Sea God Pavilion elders surrounding him, Poison Undying laughed loudly.
"What an evil and awe-inspiring Nightmare Douluo!"
"What a bunch of incompetent Shrek Supervisory Team!"
The elders of the Sea God Pavilion trembled violently, wishing they could strike down Poison Undying out of nowhere.
Then, just as their soul power surged, Du Busi instantly took out the Heavenly Soul Empire's national seal that Xue Heng had given him from his storage soul tool!
"By order of the Heavenly Soul Emperor!"
Poison Immortal raised his imperial seal high: "All Soul Master forces under the Heavenly Soul Empire, answer the call to participate in the extermination of evil Soul Masters within our borders!"
Then Poison Immortal grinned and said, "Neutral folks, please make way."
"Shrek City is located on the Lima Plain of the Heavenly Soul Empire, which is the territory of the Heavenly Soul Empire. The Body Sect has the right to investigate it."
Xuanzi crawled out of the ruins.
Blood trickled from the corner of his mouth, and his eyes blazed with fury: "You won't die from poison! Don't push your luck!"
"Shrek City is the sacred and inviolable territory of Shrek Academy..."
The moment he opened his mouth to speak, Song Yunzhi's expression in the sky changed drastically.
She hurriedly spread her wings, swiftly swooped down from the sky, and tightly covered Xuanzi's mouth.
Shrek City is located on the Lima Plain, within the territory of the Heavenly Soul Empire, and never pays any taxes.
This was a privilege granted to Shrek City by the Heavenly Soul Emperor more than four thousand years ago after the war to defend the continent.
However, this does not mean that the Heavenly Soul Empire has gifted the land occupied by this city to Shrek Academy.
"Elder Xuan, watch your words! Disaster comes from the mouth!"
Song Yunzhi's voice was very low, almost inaudible, yet it carried an unprecedented severity.
She covered Xuanzi's mouth tightly, her eyes full of warning.
After being reminded by her, Xuanzi suddenly woke up, and cold sweat instantly soaked his back.
Once he uttered those words, it was tantamount to openly declaring that Shrek Academy intended to seize the territory of the Heavenly Soul Empire!
Although the Heavenly Soul Empire has always tacitly allowed Shrek City to be autonomous, everyone knows that the Heavenly Soul Empire has never recognized the independence of this land.
On the surface, the land where Shrek City is located was leased to Shrek Academy by the Heavenly Soul Empire indefinitely and without rent.
If Shrek Academy were to declare this place as its territory, it would not only undermine its neutral stance but would also be tantamount to openly declaring war on the Heavenly Soul Empire!
What will the Star Luo Empire, especially the weakest Dou Ling Empire, think of this?
Despite Shrek Academy's rising status over the years, it is still, at its core, a Soul Master Academy.
If the three great empires unite to cut off its student body, the vast Shrek Academy will collapse in one fell swoop.
Poison Immortal stood majestically high in the sky, utterly unafraid of the many elders of Shrek Academy's Sea God Pavilion, even if he came alone.
Upon hearing Xuanzi's words, a cold glint flashed in Du Busi's eyes: "Xuanzi, what were you trying to say?"
Xuanzi's face turned ashen, and he kept his mouth shut, not uttering a single word.
Seeing that he was no longer speaking, Song Yunzhi felt relieved and flew into the air: "Poison Sect Master, Shrek City is the teaching place of Shrek Academy."
"There are many students from the three kingdoms studying here, as well as two million people. The situation is special, and I'm afraid we can't allow the Body Sect to search us."
"Just because the circumstances are special doesn't mean it's a lawless zone," Poison Undying sneered.
His purpose in coming to Shrek Academy was not to search Shrek City.
Under Xuanzi's leadership, the Shrek Supervisory Group, though incompetent in its duties, has actually killed quite a few evil spirit masters over the years.
His real purpose was to use Shrek Academy to establish the prestige of the Heavenly Soul Royal Family.
If Shrek Academy can be forced into this massive battle to exterminate evil spirits, the status of the Heavenly Soul Royal Family in the hearts of all the Soul Master sects in the Heavenly Soul Empire can be significantly enhanced.
Even if it cannot ensure that orders are obeyed without question, it will definitely greatly increase the influence of the Heavenly Soul Royal Family.
What Xue Heng needs to do is to use the righteous cause of this extermination operation to make the Tianhun royal family's decrees initially gain traction among the top soul master sects within Tianhun territory.
The current Heavenly Soul Empire is suppressed by Poison Immortal, the strongest of the three kingdoms besides Mu En, and swept aside by Huo Yuhao, a rising star with unlimited potential.
And in the future, there will be the Soul Forging Research Institute, which will open up a completely new chapter.
Therefore, taking advantage of the opportunity presented by the appearance and rampage of the Evil Soul Title is the best chance to unite the Heavenly Soul Empire into one force.
If Shrek Academy can be forced into this operation, establishing the image of the Heavenly Soul Empire as the leader, then other sects and forces will inevitably respond to the various decrees of the Heavenly Soul Empire in the following actions.
Once this situation is established, Xue Heng will do everything in his power to win over these forces.
Poison Undying's gaze swept over everyone: "Are you all mute?"
"Very well, since Shrek Academy, which claims to be neutral, is unwilling to respond to the Heavenly Soul's invitation to jointly eradicate the evil soul masters."
Here, "Poison Never Dies" has subtly changed the concept, turning the search for whether there are evil spirit masters in Shrek City into the above statement.
He suddenly raised his hand, pointed at the head of the Sleeping Douluo hanging on the east gate, and said sternly:
"This evil spirit, along with two other evil spirits, used the name of a cult to ruthlessly kill Viscount Huo Yuhao of the Heavenly Soul Empire!"
Because of the soul forging incident, Huo Yuhao's title has become the Earl of Qinglong.
However, this matter was kept top secret, so Huo Yuhao continued to refer to himself as Viscount Qinglong in public.
Poison Undying's voice boomed like thunder: "You Shrek Academy's oversight group claims to monitor the entire continent, yet you've allowed evil spirit masters to flourish like this!"
"If I hadn't come here today, you would still be completely unaware of this!"
He produced the land deed for Shrek City: "I, Poison Undying, now represent the Heavenly Soul Empire to formally issue a warning to Shrek Academy!"
"Starting tomorrow, the Heavenly Soul Empire reclaims all autonomy that Shrek Academy enjoys in Shrek City!"
"All matters concerning taxation, city defense, and public security must be strictly carried out in accordance with imperial law!"
These words caused an uproar throughout the city!
Shrek Academy's expression changed drastically!
However, before they could say anything, Du Busi changed the subject: "But His Majesty, considering Shrek Academy's meritorious service in the continental defense war, is willing to give you one last chance today."
"As long as Shrek Academy is willing to respond to the call, the Heavenly Soul Empire will still allow Shrek Academy to enjoy autonomy in Shrek City!"
Poison Undying's voice echoed across the land, each word like a hammer blow, striking the hearts of everyone at Shrek Academy.
The elders of the Sea God Pavilion trembled as they looked at the Heavenly Soul Kingdom Seal in Poison Undying's hand and the land deed for Shrek City.
This is a calculated move by the Heavenly Soul Empire to force Shrek Academy to take a stand!
Either obey the call of the Heavenly Soul and participate in the extermination of the evil spirits as a follower, thus maintaining autonomy.
Either abandon Shrek City and the Golden Tree, and choose to move to Xingluo or Douling.
Either we go to war with the Heavenly Soul Empire.
Shrek Academy has no other choice but to accept these three options.
The more than two million eyes of Shrek City became witnesses at this moment.
Whether Shrek Academy submits or abandons its noble cause of eradicating evil spirit masters depends entirely on its choice today.
Tianhun's move seemed to give Shrek a day to consider, but it actually put them in a very difficult position.
If Shrek Academy dared to even suggest considering it...
Then, in the next second, the skinned and beheaded corpse of the evil spirit at the East Gate will become evidence of collusion between the Shrek Supervision Team and the evil spirit masters.
He monitored the continent and discovered three Title Douluo-level individuals, who then became the organization's evil soul masters.
After sealing the gate, the Heavenly Soul Empire gave Shrek Academy a tiny, tiny window.
"In how many years has the Douluo Continent not seen a royal family with such a tough backbone?"
The entire city of Shrek fell silent in that instant.
All eyes were focused on the elder of the Sea God Pavilion in the sky.
