The group, originally jubilant, showed confusion when they noticed something was amiss with Wu Siduo...
Tang Wulin's brows furrowed, "What's wrong? Wu Siduo seems to be in a lot of pain!"
Xu Xiaoyan also expressed her confusion, "Shouldn't the pain only be felt when absorbing a Soul Ring or Spirit Soul during a breakthrough in soul power rank? What exactly is going on?"
Ye Xinglan anxiously said, "Should we go and tell Teacher Xu? Wu Siduo's condition is very abnormal! If something really happens, it will be too late!!"
Biting his teeth, Xie Xie immediately proposed, "I'll go and notify Teacher Xu right away!"
But at this moment, Wu Siduo, sitting cross-legged on the ground and pursing her lips tightly, managing to bear the pain of her muscles being torn apart, coldly shouted, "No need! I can hold on by myself!"
Soon after, a very pained howl was heard...
Before long, her inner Soul Power also reached saturation, and visibly, her delicate body began to emit light and started to swell...
Wu Siduo's cheeks also became immensely distorted...
Noticing this, Gu Yue exclaimed, "Not good, everyone back away, Wu Siduo's inner Soul Power is extremely unstable, she's about to explode!!"
Hearing this, everyone's faces showed hesitation...
If they ignored Wu Siduo, the only result awaiting her would be death...
In this critical moment, a gentle voice sounded, "Hmm... Looks like I haven't arrived too late!"
The speaker was Xu Sheng, who had arrived beside Wu Siduo. He extended his hand to press against the back of her head, the Power of Creation from within him flowing continuously into her whole body...
Once these forces of Creation entered Wu Siduo's body, they first covered her meridians with a strong membrane and quickly extinguished all of the rampaging Soul Power...
Only the sound of a "thump" was heard as Wu Siduo, drained of strength, collapsed to her knees...
With a pale face, she coughed, "Cough cough... Why... I was just breaking through, yet... Cough cough."
She just wanted to break through the level 60 Soul Emperor threshold, but almost died from an explosion. This shouldn't have happened!
Hearing her words, Xu Sheng helped her up, lamenting, "Wu Siduo, this is because you pursue strong power too eagerly, causing your body to be unable to withstand the Soul Power impact from consecutive breakthroughs in such a short time! If I hadn't arrived in time, you would have exploded!"
Wu Siduo hung her head, a bit ashamed, "Sor... Sorry, Teacher Xu... I was wrong..."
It was all because of her own impatience for quick success...
Patted her back in a comforting manner, Xu Sheng said softly, "Alright, take a break from cultivation for now and stabilize the Soul Power within your body first!"
Wu Siduo nodded, "I understand, Teacher Xu!"
And Tang Wulin and the rest, recovering from the shock, quickly gathered around, all of them looking at the pale-faced Wu Siduo with concern...
Tang Wulin took over Wu Siduo, urgently asking, "Teacher Xu, Wu Siduo, she's alright, isn't she?"
Xu Sheng shook his head, "Don't worry, there's nothing wrong, it's just the foundation that became unstable from breaking through too quickly!"
Hearing this, the rest finally breathed a sigh of relief...
Xie Xie took a deep breath, "Phew, I'm glad she's okay. I was really scared just now, I actually thought Wu Siduo would explode and die right here!"
Xu Xiaoyan agreed, "Mhm mhm, I didn't expect breaking through soul power ranks too quickly could also be problematic. We should all be more careful in the future!"
Ye Xinglan said with complex eyes, "Indeed, the feeling of dying from a burst body is far from pleasant."
The twisted face of Wu Siduo is still deeply etched in her heart...
Xu Lizhi scratched his head, puzzled, "But... Teacher Xu, did Wu Siduo successfully make the breakthrough?"
As soon as these words were uttered, everyone gave him a disgruntled look...
How could she have possibly succeeded in breaking through after nearly exploding herself!
Realizing his question was a bit foolish, Xu Lizhi quietly hid behind Ye Xinglan, saying with an awkward laugh, "Umm... Did I say something wrong?"
...
A few days later, inside the main hall of the Xingluo Empire, a soldier hurried in, joyfully announcing, "Reporting to His Majesty the Emperor, two War Gods from War God's Hall have already led many Army members to come to our aid and will soon arrive at the imperial palace!"
Emperor Dai Tianling on the throne exclaimed in surprise, "Oh? I didn't expect War God's Hall to be the first to dispatch Soul Masters to support Xingluo Empire!"
Logically speaking, Shrek Academy should have been the first to offer support since War God's Hall is under the management of the Douluo Federation, and the former is a neutral power!
The Daijin below also discussed, "Each War God from War God Hall has reached the Hyper Douluo level; they should be able to help!"
"That's right, the only two Ultimate Douluo in our Xingluo Empire need to hold their positions in the royal household. What we are lacking are strong leaders who can command the troops!"
"The timing of their arrival is perfect; we will remember this favor from War God Hall towards our Xingluo Empire!"
Sure enough, ten or so minutes later, the two War Gods from War God's Hall stepped into the main hall...
They clasped their fists and said, "We greet His Majesty the Emperor!"
Emperor Dai Tianling immediately responded, "You may dispense with the formalities! Thank you for coming all the way from Douluo Continent to aid us. On behalf of all the citizens of the Xingluo Empire, I express our gratitude!"
The two War Gods glanced at each other, both seemingly not expecting the Emperor of Xingluo Empire to be so courteous...
They promptly replied, "Your Majesty, there's no need for such gestures. Eradicating the Holy Spirit Cult is the responsibility of all Continent's Soul Masters!"
Emperor Dai Tianling nodded, his eyes flashing briefly, "In that case, I will not hide anything. At present, Xingluo Empire does not have high-end forces to deploy, hence we're unable to prevent the Holy Spirit Cult's Evil Soul Masters from launching terrifying attacks!"
It was certain that the Ultimate Douluo powerhouses of the Royal family of Xingluo Empire could not take action!
Otherwise, the Holy Spirit Cult might take this opportunity to launch another terror attack!
After a pause, he continued, "However, the arrival of the two War Gods has alleviated some of our pressures!"
One of the War Gods turned serious, "Your Majesty, what do you need us to do?"
The other War God added with an unwavering demeanor, "As long as it's within our power, Your Majesty can directly command us!"
They were eager to resolve Xingluo Empire's troubles so they could return to Douluo Continent!
Otherwise, they feared they might have to stay here for a long time!
Emperor Dai Tianling showed a relieved expression, sincerely saying, "Then, I entrust to you the task to lead the members of War God Hall's Army, along with our Xingluo Empire's troops, to guard the places that have been attacked by evil Soul Masters!"
Both nodded slightly, "Yes, Your Majesty!"
