With Ye Xishui and Long Xiaoyao's interference gone, everyone began to assist other sects in their fight against the evil Soul Masters, and with the addition of nearly a dozen Ultimate Douluos and Hyper Douluos, the more than a thousand evil Soul Masters involved were slaughtered in only a moment…
But even so, most sects suffered heavy casualties, with many common Titled Douluos falling under the concentrated attacks of the evil Soul Masters, not to mention the other disciples with weaker soul power ranks!
It could be said that this was the most severe injury all sects had ever sustained!
One of the sect powerhouses, looking at the corpses scattered on the ground, with reddened eyes, said, "Damn it! All of our sect's young disciples have been killed by the evil Soul Masters!"
Another middle-aged man angrily said, "The Sun-Moon Empire must give an explanation! Ambushed by so many evil Soul Masters and still completely unprepared."
Then there was a burst of continual discussion…
"Moreover, the Emperor of the Sun-Moon Empire, Xu Tianran, and others have all disappeared! They must give an explanation!"
"Damn the Sun-Moon Empire! I suspect they deliberately let the evil Soul Masters cause us heavy damage!"
"We should keep quiet about such things, after all, we don't have any evidence…"
"With such a disaster, the civilians and soldiers of the Sun-Moon Empire also suffered significant casualties. They shouldn't be stupid enough to do something like this. I think it's more likely the evil Soul Masters secretly infiltrated and it has little to do with the Sun-Moon Empire."
Xuan Zi sighed and said, "It seems that this Continental Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournament will have no champion, after such an incident!"
However, the teams that entered the finals were Tang Sect and Shrek Academy, which actually means a victory for Shrek Academy!
Xian Lin'er said coldly, "I see it's impossible to hold the Continental Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournament in the Sun-Moon Empire ever again! To actually let the evil Soul Masters commit such an act!"
Fan Yu pursed her thin lips and said, "Dean Qian he also…eh."
Qian Duoduo's body had already been placed in a storage soul tool; it was inconceivable to let an Elder of the Sea God Pavilion be sacrificed and then leave his body in a foreign land…
It would chill the heart of the deceased!
While everyone was talking, the previously disappeared Xu Tianran and other people from the Sun-Moon Empire walked out from outside the area again…
Poison Immortal's eyes flashed with intense killing intent, "This guy still has the face to come here…I want to kill him…"
But he was held back by the other Elders of the Body Sect…
One of the Elders said gravely, "We have no evidence to prove that the Sun-Moon Empire colluded with the Holy Spirit Cult. If we kill the Emperor of the Sun-Moon Empire, our Body Sect…"
Xu Tianran, pushed in his wheelchair by Juzi, approached them, followed by Mirror Dust and others…
After coming to a slow stop in front of everyone, Xu Tianran stood up from his wheelchair…
Of course, it was with the aid of his Ninth-grade Soul Guidance Device mechanical legs…
Then, with an apologetic look on his face, he bowed sincerely to Xuan Zi and the others, the tone of his voice utterly earnest, "I'm very sorry, due to our negligence in the Sun-Moon Empire's side, we allowed so many evil Soul Masters to infiltrate and caused irreversible damage to all the great sects!"
"For this, as the Emperor of the Sun-Moon Empire, I feel deeply ashamed…"
This extremely sincere demeanor actually convinced many of the sects watching the conversation to believe him a bit…
However, Poison Immortal, restraining the murderous intent in his heart, hoarsely said, "What's the use of saying this now, where were you earlier?"
Xuan Zi, with an icy tone, stared at Xu Tianran, "If you can't give an explanation, your time as the Emperor of the Sun-Moon Empire is over!"
Qian Yu also coldly shouted, "I think the Sun-Moon Empire did this on purpose, and now you come to apologize insincerely, thinking that's enough?"
Xu Tianran looked at Qian Yu in front of him, his mouth twitching subconsciously, "Uh…"
Was his master making things more difficult for him?
No, he was supposed to show some sincerity to appease these sects!
Yes, that must be it!
Thus, Xu Tianran addressed everyone, "Regarding the losses of the various sects, our Sun-Moon Empire is willing to use..."
Behind him, Juzi's beautiful eyes lit up with a glow...
The plan had now reached the stage she had anticipated, with just the trigger needed to take action...
...
On the other hand, Shrek Academy!
Tang Ya, with a face full of concern, said, "How come the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion still haven't returned? Could something have happened?"
Bei Bei reached out and affectionately rubbed Tang Ya's head, consolingly saying, "Don't worry so much, if something had happened, Qian Yu would have rushed back to tell us to evacuate Shrek Academy first!"
Of course, although he said this, what Bei Bei truly thought in his heart, no one knew...
Huo Yuhao said calmly, "All we can do now is wait patiently... After all, in a battle between Hyper Douluo and Ultimate Douluo, we would only become a burden!"
Tang Wutong, however, was somewhat anxious; she wasn't worried about ordinary Titled Douluo, but this time the Holy Spirit Cult had actually dispatched two level 99 Ultimate Douluo!
While each person harbored their own thoughts, a massive grey-white vortex silently opened...
Upon seeing the grey-white vortex open, including Xuan Ziwen, all members of Shrek Academy became vigilant...
Under everyone's gaze, Elder Xuan and other heavily injured Elders of the Sea God Pavilion started to walk out from the vortex one after another...
It was then that everyone's hearts suddenly relaxed...
Xuan Ziwen was the first to approach and said to Elder Xuan and the others, "Elder Xuan! Are you all okay?"
Elder Xuan nodded and spoke softly, "Mhmm!"
Fan Yu sighed and said, "But Principal Qian..."
Upon hearing this, Xuan Ziwen thought to himself, "Principal Qian? The level 8 soul master among the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion?"
Yan Shaozhe said with gravity, "This time, the losses of the major sects are heavy, especially the Body Sect, which has lost four Hyper Douluo consecutively!"
When Qian Yu finally emerged from the grey-white vortex, his eyes immediately met Tang Wutong's, which were staring at him with pink-purple pupils. He then walked over to her with a faint smile...
Teasing her, he said, "Wutong, were you that worried about me?"
Tang Wutong, who had intended to ask Qian Yu if he was alright, quickly wiped the corner of her moist eyes and turned her head with a pout, saying, "Who... who's worried about you? I was worried about the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion."
Standing beside her, Xu Sanshi chuckled and said, "Wutong, Qian Yu is one of the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion, you know!"
Tang Wutong's cheeks flushed, and she gave Xu Sanshi a glare without amusement...
Qian Yu reached out and took hold of Tang Wutong's soft hand. She struggled symbolically for a moment and then calmed down...
The others were already used to it...
Only then did Bei Bei curiously ask, "Qian Yu, what's the situation now?"
Upon being asked, Qian Yu calmly explained, "Although the sects suffered heavy losses, except for the Supreme Pontiff Ye Xishui and Long Xiaoyao, the two Ultimate Douluo, all the others from the Holy Spirit Cult have been eradicated."
Xu Sanshi's eyes lit up. "Doesn't that mean the foundation of the Holy Spirit Cult has been completely uprooted? Well done!"
Ma Xiaotao raised an eyebrow, "But the two strongest ones got away, and that's not good news..."
Jiang Nannan spoke up, "Still, it has nothing to do with us anymore! Even if the Holy Spirit Cult wants to regroup, it will take a lot of time!"
Bei Bei stretched and smiled, "Let's go! It's time to start cleaning up the remnants of these evil Soul Masters!"
