In a certain part of the Aquipeia Forest, witnessing countless soul beasts frantically rushing toward the source of the dragon's roar, Ye Xishui's lips curled into a cold smile, "It seems the plan has succeeded, the Beast Tide will probably break out in no more than a day or two."
Everything was as she had predicted, Di Tian was channeling his resentment towards humans...
Standing beside her, Long Xiaoyao, with hands clasped behind his back, watched everything before him with a calm gaze and murmured, "I'm afraid this outbreak of the Beast Tide will be extremely difficult to stop!"
He was somewhat worried, if Di Tian and those ferocious beasts personally took advantage of the Beast Tide to strike, could the soul masters truly hold them off?
If a place fell in the midst of the Beast Tide, the ensuing soul beasts would not be so simple to withstand!
Especially those hundred-thousand-year soul beasts, they already possessed a spiritual intelligence not inferior to that of an average human!
Ye Xishui's lips curled into a cold smile, "No need to worry, the Beast Tide is merely a means to disintegrate the combat strength of these sects."
Before killing the Three-eyed Golden Lion, Ye Xishui controlled a soul beast to deliver the final blow, transferring the destiny of the Aquipeia Forest onto it...
However, since the transfer was recent, the influence of the transferred destiny wouldn't be too conspicuous, and with Di Tian in such an extremely furious state, he definitely wouldn't scrutinize carefully...
...
Qian Yu and Tang Wutong, who emerged from the Nether Vortex, looked at Shrek Academy filled with the noise of bustling conversations...
After briefly emitting their Divine Power to sense their surroundings, the two headed straight for Sea God's Pavilion...
At the moment, outside the Sea God's Pavilion, nearly all the teachers of Shrek Outer Court and the inner court students had gathered, their eyes intently fixed on Xuan Zi and others before them...
They all knew that the announcement the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion were about to make was no trivial matter; otherwise, they wouldn't have gone to such lengths to assemble everyone...
When they saw Qian Yu and Tang Wutong arrive, they respectfully greeted, "Elder Qian Yu!"
With an indifferent "Hmm" in response, Qian Yu then walked towards the Sea God Pavilion Elders at the front...
Meanwhile, Tang Wutong quickly found Tang Ya and the others...
Seeing Tang Wutong's aura now even more fierce, faces of the Tang Sect members all displayed surprise...
Xu Sanshi's eyes assessed Tang Wutong, amazed, "Wutong, how has your aura increased so much in such a short time?"
Bei Bei squinted his eyes, speculating, "She must've absorbed the boost from another hundred-thousand-year soul ring. Compared to others, it really does make one feel somewhat inferior!"
Jiang Nannan chuckled, "I'm really envious of Junior Sister Wutong, possessing two hundred-thousand-year soul rings at just the Soul Sage level, and Yuhao too, you guys are the real monsters!"
Tang Wutong replied with a giggle and a hand over her mouth, "You're all joking, Yuhao and I are just lucky."
Beside her, Huo Yuhao nodded in agreement, "Mm!"
In his mind, the Skydream Ice Silkworm pondered, "Little Yuhao, I think something is not right! With Di Tian's cautious character, he wouldn't gather the soul beasts so blatantly."
The Ice Emperor also reflected, "I'm afraid someone is causing mischief behind the scenes! Otherwise, Di Tian would definitely have taken advantage of the night to amass the soul beasts before attacking, not giving the human soul masters any time to react!"
Huo Yuhao's eyes lit up, "Brother Tianmeng, Ice Emperor, do you think it could be because his Outrage was removed that Di Tian is so furious?"
No sooner had the words left his lips than Skydream Ice Silkworm and Ice Emperor simultaneously declared, "Impossible!"
...
Qian Yu's eyes turned to Xuan Zi beside him, "Elder Xuan, what's the situation?"
Xuan Zi shook his head, his expression grave as he said, "According to our scouting, it seems that all the soul beasts from the Aquipeia Forest are converging towards Di Tian. I'm afraid that once their numbers reach a certain level, a Beast Tide will erupt!"
Yan Shaozhe also spoke up, "Regarding the impending Beast Tide, I have already sent people to inform the other sects. They should also be strengthening their defenses!"
Cai Mei'er said earnestly, "What we at Shrek Academy and the Shrek City Defense Army need to be wary of is the South City Wall. It faces the Aquipeia Forest directly and will be the most difficult checkpoint to defend once the Beast Tide is unleashed!"
Xuan Ziwen suggested seriously, "We must set up a wide range of lethal soul tools in advance; otherwise, it will be difficult to annihilate the large numbers of soul beasts. Moreover, considering the spacious area near the South City Wall, it can completely accommodate the Shrek City Defense Army as well as the students."
Just then, Xuan Zi suddenly infused his Soul Power into his words and addressed the inner court students and teachers below, "The Beast Tide is approaching! All inner court students of Shrek Academy, move out immediately to the South City Wall to assist the Shrek City Defense Army in setting up soul tools and transportation!"
"And the outer court students of the second year and above, follow the outer court teachers to the other three wall sections!"
Upon hearing this, the inner court students of Shrek Academy below all gasped in surprise…
"A Beast Tide? My God! Is it really a Beast Tide?"
"Could our luck be any worse! We've actually run into a Beast Tide!"
"Stop talking and hurry up! If we fail to hold back the Beast Tide, it will be a disaster for Shrek Academy!"
"This time, even the younger brothers from the outer court must participate. It seems like it's going to be a breathtaking battle!"
Soon, these inner court students gathered together and rushed towards the South City Wall of Shrek City…
Meanwhile, the outer court students, under the leadership of the outer court teachers, headed to the other three wall sections!
…
Shrek City! South City Wall!
One could see tens of thousands of the Shrek City Defense Army setting up various types of soul tools on the city wall. Although the scene felt dense, the order was surprisingly neat…
In an instant, quite a few fixed-installation soul guidance devices were put in place, their barrels all aimed in the direction of the Aquipeia Forest!
But obviously, these were nowhere near enough for a battle to resist a Beast Tide!!
And there, as the commander of the Shrek City Defense Army, was Shi Xing!
He, too, was a powerhouse with a soul power rank reaching that of a Titled Douluo!
His eyes were fixed on the Aquipeia Forest ahead, which was emitting an oppressive aura, giving off a feeling as if dark clouds were weighing down, threatening to destroy the city…
He murmured to himself, "Is it coming? It's been a long time since Shrek City has seen a battle on such a large scale!"
A city defense soldier approached Shi Xing and reported respectfully, "Reporting, the inner and outer court students from Shrek Academy are already on their way! And they're transporting a large number of high-tier soul guidance devices."
Upon hearing this, Shi Xing's eyes suddenly brightened, and he nodded, "Good! I didn't expect the Academy to have started researching high-tier soul guidance devices."
With this, the defense will be much easier!
Although the Shrek City Defense Army also has soul tools, most of them are only level 4 or 5, and there are fewer than twenty soul tools above level 7!
Shi Xing was still pondering when countless arriving Shrek Academy inner court students, without much questioning…
Went straight to the city wall and swiftly began setting up high-tier soul guidance devices…
