"Our clan has its reasons for appearing. For now, there's no need to inform you all. However, the world has been chaotic for too long. Since our clan has emerged, we naturally intend to bring order to this chaos."
Facing Xu Jiawei's question, Shui Wuya did not evade, responding directly.
"What? The Shui Clan wants to unify the entire continent?!"
Among the group from Shrek Academy, a cry of surprise erupted from Elder Lin's mouth.
In fact, he wasn't the only one.
Among the tens of thousands of external soul masters present, upon hearing Shui Wuya's intention to unify the continent, expressions of great astonishment appeared on their faces.
"If the Shui Clan wants to unify the continent, this task will likely be very difficult."
Xu Jiawei, who posed the question, was now internally horrified, murmuring his response.
Although they had speculated about the purpose of the Shui Clan's appearance long ago, no one wished to be absorbed by them.
"We of Shrek Academy were established by divine beings and have existed independently for a long time. Even if the Shui Clan aims to unify the continent, Shrek Academy should maintain its independence."
At this moment, Elder Xuan, bearing immense pressure, had to speak.
He knew that his words might anger the Shui Clan, but he was adamant that Shrek Academy should not become subordinate to them.
However, upon hearing this, Shui Wuya immediately sneered.
"A school founded by divine beings?"
"They are nothing more than seven cowards who fear death. What divine beings?"
Shui Wuya's words were full of mockery and disdain, directed straight at the Seven Monsters of Shrek from thousands of years ago.
"Chief Shui! I respect the Shui Clan, but I cannot tolerate insults to the seven divine predecessors of Shrek Academy!"
Elder Xuan stood up abruptly, veins bulging on his forehead, clearly suppressing his anger.
Before Shui Wuya could respond, Poison Douluo suddenly stood up amidst the crowd, wearing a cold smile.
"Elder Xuan, do you really know what kind of people the Seven Monsters of Shrek were from tens of thousands of years ago, especially Tang San? Just a hypocrite!"
Poison Douluo sneered as he spoke.
No matter the occasion, Poison Douluo was always eager to provoke Shrek Academy.
"Poison Douluo, you are out of line!"
The members of Shrek Academy naturally could not tolerate Poison Douluo's provocation. Elder Song, Elder Yan, and others stood up one after another, their expressions furious as they rebuked him.
The situation in the room instantly became tense!
Simultaneously, this scene naturally attracted discussions from others present, many of whom wore expressions of confusion.
"Tang San? The Asura God from thousands of years ago? It seems he was the leader of the Seven Monsters of Shrek. How did he become just a hypocrite?"
"We're in for a good show today, bringing up events from thousands of years ago!"
The discussions continued, reaching Poison Douluo's ears, who wore an even brighter smile of cold satisfaction.
"Since you don't know, let me enlighten you. That Tang San from ten thousand of years ago was a thorough scoundrel!"
"He provoked the Ice God and was killed. Later, he was resurrected by a woman from the Martial Soul Hall who admired him. Yet, he showed no gratitude whatsoever. Instead, he subverted the ten-thousand-year legacy of the Martial Soul Hall..."
"After the Ice God ascended, he no longer hid and directly altered the history of the continent, concealing all stories about the Ice God and propagating Shrek Academy, making everyone think he was a righteous figure..."
"Ridiculous! If it weren't for my ancestor's seclusion ten thousand years ago, perhaps I would have been deceived like everyone else!"
In just a few dozen breaths, Poison Douluo spoke incessantly, his face changing from a sneer to excitement, recounting various deeds of Tang San from ten thousand of years ago.
The tens of thousands of soul masters present were astonished upon hearing this.
"We never expected Tang San to be such a scoundrel. Shrek Academy even worships him as a deity. Truly turning black into white, unbelievable!"
"If only the Martial Soul Hall still existed. It's a pity it was overturned by that scoundrel Tang San!"
"... "
Poison Douluo's account of Tang San's misdeeds quickly stirred indignation among the listeners.
Meanwhile, most of the members of Shrek Academy present wore expressions of disbelief.
Though instinctively distrustful of Poison Douluo, his words seemed so convincing that it was hard not to doubt.
Even Elder Xuan, if he wanted to refute, didn't know where to begin.
Moreover, this was the sacred ground of the Shui Clan, with numerous elders present and the gaze of the Ancient Ice Turtle Ancestor, an 800,000-year-old, watching closely. He dared not act rashly.
"Let's go!"
Finally, as doubts and curses grew louder and some lost control, Elder Xuan gave the order in frustration, leading the members of Shrek Academy away, feeling humiliated and angry!
...
"Silence!"
Watching Shrek Academy leave, Shui Wuya's gaze followed them, his voice cold and unforgiving, his pupils shimmering with an indiscernible light.
Sure enough, upon hearing Shui Wuya's voice, tens of thousands of soul masters present instantly quieted down, including Poison Douluo, who willingly returned to his seat.
"While our clan aims to unify chaos, we are unwilling to harm innocent lives. Therefore, regardless of any sect or faction in the world, you may choose to submit. You have one month to consider."
Shui Wuya continued, sweeping his gaze across the tens of thousands of soul masters present.
Upon hearing this, tens of thousands of external soul masters fell into a stunned silence.
Shui Wuya had only spoken half of his statement: besides submitting, they could also choose to resist, but the consequences of resisting Shui Clan were self-evident.
For about half an hour thereafter, the ceremony continued with processes such as incense burning and prayers to Ice God, but the tens of thousands of external soul masters were all distracted.
Until the Shui Clan's debut ceremony ended, the external soul masters lost interest and promptly began their journey home.
The only ones not in a hurry to leave were the three major ultimate sects and the three affiliated forces under the Shui Clan.
"The divine realm is about to undergo great changes, and you should be prepared."
When there were no others present in the Shui Clan's sanctuary, Shui Wuya suddenly turned to the three major ultimate sects and calmly spoke.
Upon hearing this, Feng Batian and the other two who had already acknowledged Shui Wuya's strength immediately stood up and respectfully saluted him.
"We understand!"
At this moment, the three no longer displayed any arrogance. They did not question Shui Wuya's call for preparation, as it was a covenant passed down since the era of the three major families thousands of years ago!
Seeing their respectful demeanor, Shui Wuya nodded in satisfaction.
His gaze then turned to Shui Yanjun at his side.
"Elder Shui Yan."
"Here."
"From today onwards, with our clan's debut, our primary objective shall be to expand our clan's influence and increase our numbers. Every member of our clan must prioritize the growth of our clan!"
"Yes!"
Shui Wuya and Shui Yanjun's concise exchange was clearly heard by everyone present.
The reason Shui Wuya made expanding the clan's influence a top priority was to gain more power of faith! Recently, after absorbing the power of faith born within the sanctuary, he noticed a significant increase in his own strength.
This also meant that Shui Bing'er, in the divine realm, would also gain strength due to the increased power of faith in Water.
Thinking of this, Shui Wuya's gaze suddenly turned to Shui Bing'er beside him, and a rare warmth appeared in his jet-black eyes.
"What's wrong?"
Shui Bing'er looked at Shui Wuya, who had been tense all day but was now suddenly looking at her tenderly. A blush inadvertently appeared on her face.
Upon hearing this Shui Wuya just chuckled and did not speak.
...
Several days passed in a flash. Most of the tens of thousands of soul masters who had attended the Shui Clan's debut ceremony had already returned to their respective forces.
The vast majority of them were entangled in indecision, pondering whether or not to submit to the Shui Clan.
The most tumultuous discussions were naturally occurring in Shrek City.
"Have you heard? At the recent Shui Clan's debut ceremony, the true colors of Shrek Academy were exposed. It is said that Tang San, the Asura God from ten thousand years ago, was a hypocritical villain!"
"Not only that, even their generation's Shrek's Seven Devils were all cowards!"
...
In the streets of Shrek City, voices of discussion and ridicule filled the air. Upon learning the truth, ordinary people expressed disdain for the Shrek Seven Devils from thousands of years ago.
Just as Wang Qiuer, who had recently returned to Shrek City, heard these discussions, her face suddenly flushed with anger!
She grabbed two passersby who had just passed by her side and was about to teach them a lesson.
However, before she could act, Jiang Nannan and others beside her stopped her.
"Qiuer, let's not get involved for now. What if what they're saying is true?"
Jiang Nannan looked helpless. Now, the whole city was discussing the Shrek Seven Devils from thousands of years ago, and even they were starting to doubt the truth.
At the same time, outside the Enrollment Office of Shrek Academy, a large group of new students who had just enrolled were besieging it.
"Shrek Academy deliberately fabricated facts, which is despicable! We want to drop out!"
"Yes, drop out! We don't want to be students of this rubbish academy anymore!"
...
The students were passionate, feeling deceived by Shrek Academy. They clamored to drop out.
As this sentiment continued to ferment, it quickly turned into anger.
"Brothers, follow me! Let's go tear down Tang San's statue!"
In the crowd, someone shouted loudly, instantly gaining agreement from everyone.
Therefore, the large group of students besieging the Enrollment Office immediately rushed towards the statue of Tang San built in the center of the academy.
However, before these students could act, Xuan Lao, with an uncontrollable look of anger on his face, suddenly appeared in front of them.
"Outrageous! This is an important place of the academy. How dare you behave recklessly!"
Xuan Lao's voice thundered, and at the same time, an aura of a Limit Douluo burst forth, knocking these students to the ground.
Since returning to the academy two or three days ago, even he, as a dignified Limit Douluo, gradually couldn't suppress his anger after hearing countless insults and criticisms.
However, just as Xuan Lao was preparing to further reprimand these students, a cold laughter suddenly came from the sky.
"Tsk tsk tsk, Xuan Zi, is this how the Sea God Pavilion's Lord behaves, actually resorting to action against a group of juniors?"
With the cold laughter, Du Busi's figure suddenly appeared above Shrek Academy.
Seeing Du Busi's sudden appearance, Xuan Lao's face instantly showed a look of facing a formidable enemy. The pressure of the Limit Douluo burst forth towards Du Busi.
"Since these juniors can't dismantle Tang San's statue, then let me do it."
Seeing this, Du Busi's face showed no fear. Instead, a loud laughter erupted, and then the Limit Douluo's power exploded as he launched towards Xuan Lao!
In an instant, a fierce battle broke out between them!
