  Tang Wulin had no idea and followed behind Hall Master Li. Tang Wulin could sense that he was an greater expert than a Hyper Douluo from the aura he released. With his soul power cultivation base, he was still unable to completely gauge this person’s cultivation base.

  Tang Sect was truly a place where people with unusual abilities were found. At the same time, Tang Wulin could see that this person was slightly discontented with him being the Sect Master. He must have sensed that Tang Wulin only had a Soul Saint’s cultivation base.

  The Amorous Douluo Zang Xin had told him about Li Yunzhe before. He was a Tang Sect elder. As the person in charge of Tang Sect in Dou Spirit Empire, his status was equivalent to Tang Sect’s inner hall Hall Master. He had worked for more than thirty years in Dou Spirit Empire and was an influential man in the Tang Sect. His ability and strength were very high.

  Tang Sect had a few main sources of income. Among them were the making and selling of soul weapons, the research and development of soul technology, and control over resources and their distribution.

  Due to the scarcity of resources on the Douluo Continent, the same rare metal costed much more on Douluo Continent as compared to Dou Spirit Continent and Star Luo Continent. This was also the main reason to why the Douluo Continent wanted to wage a war.

  Naturally, Tang Sect purchased many of its resources from Dou Spirit and Star Luo Continents. The reason why Tang Sect was held in high regard in Dou Spirit Empire and Star Luo Empire was that the Tang Sect had brought soul technology to their continents. This activity had been found out by the Douluo Federation through some means.

  However, Tang Sect had done all its technological research and development with its own resources. Hence, the federation could not make any move against them from the legal side of events. Moreover, Tang Sect and Shrek Academy were of the same breath and branches. Even the federation was wary of making any rash moves against the coalition of these two great organizations. All this had contributed to the detonation of godkiller-ranked fixed soul ammunitions on them.

  Naturally, Tang Sect would never sell all its latest technologies that it had developed to Star Luo and Dou Spirit Empires. Tang Sect and Shrek Academy were staunch believers of peace. With the surplus resources of the Star Luo Empire and Dou Spirit Empire, once their technological advancement was on par with or even surpassed the Douluo Federation’s, it was not impossible for them to wage war against the Douluo Federation. After all, these two empires had originated from Douluo Continent. The rulers of the two empires were constantly thinking about ways to strike back at the Douluo Federation.

  All those factors had given rise to the delicate relationship between Tang Sect and the two continents. They were close partners with a limited partnership. The two empires had no choice but to rely on Tang Sect, but at the same time they also wished to gain more from Tang Sect.

  Tang Wulin’s current mission for this visit was to provide the two empires with enough weapons as Tang Sect’s Sect Master so that they could intimidate the Douluo Federation. That would deter the Douluo Federation from taking any rash actions. However, he had to go about it carefully as well. He could not allow them to actually go to war just because they had the weapons.

  Zang Xin told Tang Wulin that Li Yunzhe was powerful, he was headstrong. If he wanted to put him to the greatest use, he must first obtain his sincere submission. Without a doubt, this was also the first hurdle Tang Wulin had encountered since he became the Tang Sect’s Sect Master.

  Two large soul cars were already waiting for them by the road. Tang Wulin and the other Shrek Seven Monsters followed Li Yunzhe and some members of the Tang Sect’s Dou Spirit Empire Branch into the first car. The others boarded the second car.

  Li Yunzhe watched as the others silently went into the car. He did not make any moves and nobody said anything. His gaze flitted here and there before finally falling onto Tang Wulin. “Sect Master, we’re departing now. It’ll take about five hours for us to get to Heaven Dou City from here. During this time, you can ask me anything about whatever it is that you want to know.”


  He mentioned that Tang Wulin could ask, but he did not report anything of his own accord. The pride in his heart was evident in these small details.

  “Alright.” Tang Wulin was indifferent. He was not angered by Li Yunzhe’s attitude. After all, he was too young. If he put himself in Li Yunzhe’s shoes and he was the one facing such a young Sect Master, the first thing he would question was whether such a Sect Master was dependable or not.

  However, Tang Wulin did not ask Li Yunzhe about anything. Instead, he cast his gaze outside the window and enjoyed the scenery,

  They traveled on a dirt road for about twenty minutes before they went on an actual road. The road was not too broad. The land on both sides of the road was undeveloped. Vegetation formed uneven covers across the lands and this made it seem desolate.

  Some information regarding Dou Spirit Continent surfaced in Tang Wulin’s mind.

  Compared to Star Luo Continent, the Dou Spirit Continent had indeed been developed earlier. Ten thousand years ago, the descendants of the Dou Spirit Empire had migrated here. During those times, the descendants were at the end of their ropes. It was said that the survivors who actually made it onto this continent numbered less than ten thousand. The number of resources they brought with them could be counted. More importantly, they did not have enough talents.

  This was starkly different from Star Luo Empire’s case. The Star Luo Empire had discovered Star Luo Continent and migrated there of their own accord in millions.

  That was why, even though Star Luo had developed much later than Dou Spirit Continent, it had developed at a much faster pace as compared to Dou Spirit Continent. After all, the number of resources and talents that the Star Luo Empire brought over to the continent was much more than Dou Spirit Empire.

  The current state of affairs was proof of the differences in their starting points. Among the three continents, the Dou Spirit Continent was the least developed continent. It was also the smallest in size. This meant that there would be more unexploited resources on this continent.

  Tang Wulin looked outside the window as he quietly pondered about these things. The atmosphere in the car seemed gloomy.

  Li Yunzhe was seated beside him. He felt slightly shocked that this young Sect Master seemed capable of standing his ground.

  When he received the order from the Amorous Douluo Zang Xin back then, he had fiercely retorted. He never thought that a young man in his twenties could lead such an important mission. However, under the Amorous Douluo’s strong pressure, he had no choice but to follow his orders. However, he was still somewhat negative regarding Tang Wulin’s visit.

  This young man before him was flawless in appearance. He had a big body and deep eyes on his handsome face. Even with his picky taste, if this young man was a son-in-law, any father-in-law would have been satisfied with his looks alone.

  However, Tang Wulin’s aura implied that he only had a Soul Saint’s cultivation base. That was slightly weaker than Li Yunzhe’s initial guess. He had thought that such a person must have been a genius to be able to become the Sect Master at such a young age, which meant that he must have had a certain rank of cultivation base.

  However, when he actually met Tang Wulin, this Sect Master was younger than he expected. Naturally, his cultivation base was much weaker. He was but a Soul Saint!

  Just when he was observing Tang Wulin, Tang Wulin suddenly turned around to look at him with a smile. “Hall Master Li, what’s the stance of the Dou Spirit Empire’s officials regarding the war that’s about to erupt? I want to know the details. Do they have any countermeasures?”


  With the possibility of facing the planet’s greatest force’s attack, it was only natural for the Dou Spirit Empire to be flustered. Even if while they were flustered, information on any other reactions they made was extremely important for Tang Wulin’s current visit. This was because such information would determine their attitude towards the Dou Spirit Empire in their attempt to achieve the objectives as an envoy.

  Li Yunzhe replied, “The royal household didn’t believe it at first when they received this news. After all, they had been under peaceful conditions for a long time. I’ll describe the overall situation of Dou Spirit Empire as simply as I can. There are about twenty-six million people in the Dou Spirit Empire which is about a tenth of the Douluo Continent’s population and one-third of Star Luo Continent’s. Their standing army is four hundred thousand men strong. That includes a hundred thousand logistics, supplies and support personnel. There are ten main combat army corps, including two navy fleets. The level of their equipment is starkly different from the Douluo Continent. According to our estimation, the amount of mechas from the three Dou Spirit Empire armies combined is only about ten thousand units. They have fewer large soul weapons. If the war really starts, even a mothership fleet from the Douluo Federation can finish the Dou Spirit Empire off in a short amount of time. This three-hundred-thousand man strong Dou Spirit Empire’s army is only as powerful as a fifty thousand men strong elite army on Douluo Continent.”


  Tang Wulin asked, “Does the Dou Spirit Empire have any advantages then?”


  Li Yunzhe drily replied, “All they have are a favorable climate and geographical advantage. Compared to the forces on Douluo Federation, they know these lands better and that’s all they have. So, based on what I know, their strategy is to allow the federal army to enter Dou Spirit Continent and engage them on the continent. This will buy them time during which they’ll attempt to cut off the federal army’s supplies and fight a war of attrition.”
