Continental Unification

Divine Fire Gate, Fire God Abyss.

Ma Hongjun followed Baili Chiyan to the Divine Fire Gate, where the Divine Fire Gate leader Baili Qimen, personally greeted them.

Although their relationship was based on a transaction, it must be said that Ma Hongjun was indeed the most outstanding genius among the Fire Attribute Soul Master they had ever seen.

Most importantly, Baili Chiyan no longer has to be someone's underling. The sect's heir has returned intact, which is always something to be happy about.

Baili Qimen said cheerfully, "It is an honor for our Divine Fire Gate to have such a talented scholar from the Sword Sect grace us with his presence."

Ma Hongjun bowed slightly to Baili Qimen and said, "Sect Leader Baili, you flatter me. I am now friends with Crimson Flame, and you are my elder. Just call me Hongjun."

Baili Qimen didn't put on airs either; regardless of Ma Hongjun's status or talent, he was someone worth befriending.

Moreover... the relationship between his own son and Ma Hongjun didn't seem to be as bad as the rumors suggested.

In fact, Baili Chiyan's personality is quite good; apart from being a little arrogant, there's nothing wrong with him.

In particular, he was able to take things in stride. After Ma Hongjun defeated him, he genuinely wanted to learn from Ma Hongjun.

Especially after Ma Hongjun fused with the Ten-Headed Blazing Sun Snake Inner Core and obtained a Hundred Thousand Year Seventh Spirit Ring.

He also aspires to become a strong person like Ma Hongjun.

Ma Hongjun followed Baili Qimen into the sect. Due to the Divine Decree, all the major forces on the continent that possess Divine Inheritance have now begun their divine trials.

However, the divine examination requires talent; those without talent will find it futile to participate.

Especially deities like the Fire God and the Wind God, who are inherently limited to Soul Master of other attributes.

There are many geniuses in the Divine Fire Gate, among whom Baili Chiyan and Baili Chiling are the most outstanding.

The God of Fire God's assessments are divided into Yellow Level First to Third Trial), Black Level Fourth to Sixth Trial), and Red Level Seventh to Ninth Trial). This is also the level division for assessments of most deities.

Generally, geniuses can only reach the Black Level at most, and those who can pass the Red Level Assessment are basically qualified to inherit God Position's position.

Both siblings passed the Black Level Assessment. Baili Chiyan passed the Black Level Fifth Trial, while Caiji Chiji passed the Black Level Fourth Trial.

Besides the two siblings, Huo Wu and Huo Wushuang from the Blazing Academy also passed the Black Level Assessment, contributing to the Divine Fire Gate.

Compared to the two pairs of siblings, Ma Hongjun's talent is beyond doubt. He directly obtained the Red Level First Trial in the Fire God's test, also known as the Fire God's Ninth Trial.

The Red Level Assessment does not automatically grant inheritance rights, as there are Levels Seven and Eight.

However, the Ninth Trial would earn the favor of the gods, and barring any unforeseen circumstances, the person who passed all the tests would become the successor to the gods.

It's not surprising that Ma Hongjun was able to pass the Fire God's Ninth Trial, after all, he was already Soul Saint at a young age, and his Seventh Spirit Ring was at the Hundred Thousand Year Level.

However, for the Divine Fire Gate, although Ma Hongjun was the designated successor of the Fire God, he was actually a member of the Sword Sect. The good stuff was going to outsiders...

Ma Hongjun naturally understood what this meant for the people of Divine Fire Gate. He smiled and said, "Don't worry, everyone. In the future, we will all be one family, without distinction between you and me."

"Moreover, now that I have inherited the Fire God's Ninth Trial, I will naturally not forget the Divine Fire Gate in the future."

With Ma Hongjun's assurance, everyone felt a little better.

And just as Ma Hongjun said, not long after, Eternal Douluo Oscar appeared out of nowhere, offering all sorts of plans and benefits. In the future, the Douluo Continent would be his personal domain.

What else could we be but family...?

Moreover, Baili Qimen is a shrewd person. His daughter clearly has feelings for Ma Hongjun, and he spares no effort to bring them together.

As long as Ma Hongjun becomes his son-in-law, the benefits will remain within the family.

Unfortunately, Ma Hongjun is now a devoted man; with his girlfriend Ning Rongrong in his arms, how could he possibly be interested in other women?

In Wind God Valley, Feng Qinglong passed the Wind God's Fifth Trial, while Yun Yi passed the Wind God's Fourth Trial. The two are the true prodigies of Wind God Valley.

However, Wind God Valley also welcomed a super genius, Feng Xiaotian.

Compared to Feng Qinglong's Black Level Fifth Trial, Feng Xiaotian directly obtained the Black Level trial, demonstrating even greater talent than Feng Qinglong.

With the addition of the super genius Feng Xiaotian, Wind God Valley has a promising future.

However, compared to the Divine Fire Gate, which already possessed the Fire God's Ninth Trial, the people of Wind God Valley were green with envy! Why hadn't they managed to snag such a genius?

Now that Oscar has successfully killed the King of Slaughter and Bibi Dong, the biggest crisis has been resolved.

Oscar's ambitions are common knowledge, but no one has stood up to oppose them.

Either they were afraid of his strength, or they were given too much and had no desire to resist at all...

Star Luo Empire is currently suffering heavy losses, but thanks to Oscar's Ninth Spirit Ability, the dead have all come back to life.

Star Luo Emperor also realized that he had no strength to resist Oscar. Moreover, the Crown Prince was already on Oscar's side and was also Oscar's good brother. Even if he abdicated, the Dai Family would not suffer any losses.

The only difference is that they lost their imperial power, but nothing else has changed. In fact, the Sword Sect brought much more than they had before.

Needless to say, the Emperor died on Xue Ye, and Crown Prince Xue Qinghe succeeded to the Heaven Dou.

Although Prince Xue Xing and Prince Xue Beng had some schemes in secret, they could no longer cause any trouble under Xue Qinghe's command.

The two empires began to restore the lives of the people and repair everything destroyed by the war. At the same time, the emperors of the two empires prayed to the heavens and announced their abdication to Oscar, the Eternal Douluo.

On this auspicious day, Oscar's achievements had already spread to every corner of the continent. All the groundwork laid beforehand began to take effect. On this day, after Oscar unified the two countries, he established a unique empire, Oscar himself emperor, and founded the Martial Spirit Hall Empire, with the title of Eternal Great Emperor.

The capital was established in Heaven Dou City, the former capital of the Heaven Dou Empire, because Sunset Forest was right next to Heaven Dou City. However, Heaven Dou City has already begun to be rebuilt, and its area and scale have been expanded three times. One-third of Sunset Forest has been incorporated into the new capital.

Oscar established the Spirit Hall Empire, becoming its founding emperor and making Heaven Dou City Heaven Dou City the capital, which was then renamed Spirit City.

To avoid having the same name as the capital, the original Spirit City was renamed Angel City, and the Spirit Hall was renamed Angel Sanctuary. It still oversees all the Soul Master in the world and continues to help ordinary people Awakened Spirit.

The Sword Sect was promoted to the Guardian Sect, becoming the top sect in the world. A year later, a new Sect Competition was held to select the Seven Great Sects.

At the same time, all the advanced Soul Master Academy across the continent began preparing for the All-Continent Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournament a year later.

The eve of the Continental Sect Competition is the highlight of the All-Continent Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournament.

The entire continent was adorned with statues of Eternal Douluo, no... it should be the statues of His Your Majesty the Emperor Oscar of the Spirit Hall Empire, including many depictions of the evil King of Slaughter Oscar discovered.

To unite the faith of the people for the Oscar.

Besides the human world, the two major alliances also erected statues of Oscar, and his promotion of the Soul Spirit Method has won the hearts of the beasts.

However Douluo Continent does not have Mount Tai, nor does it have the various processes of being locked up like Oscar's previous life. It simply drafted a proclamation and took office at the newly built Heaven and Earth Platform Spirit City!

The sky was cloudless and clear today. Countless people gathered outside the city for Oscar's coronation ceremony! As the proceedings unfolded, Oscar stood in the center of the Heaven and Earth Platform and proclaimed. "Yellow Heaven Supreme God, Houtu Deity. Because the previous emperors of the two dynasties, the civil and military officials, elders, soldiers, and civilians all jointly urged me to ascend the throne, I have been refused three times. But now the nation has just been unified, and the people are in turmoil. To quell the chaos and bring peace to the people, and considering that the Mandate of Heaven cannot be refused, and that the officials cannot be without a leader, I, the Emperor, following the Way of Heaven and obeying the people, and remembering the grace of the three previous emperors, now, I hereby proclaim to Heaven and Earth, offer sacrifices to my ancestors, and Imperial Throne!"

After going through a series of procedures, Oscar finally ascended to the throne as the Eternal Great Emperor of the Spirit Hall Empire, with the National Title Eternal, Douluo Continent was thus unified.

The establishment of an empire takes time, and the hearts and minds of the people also need time to be won over. Emperor Oscar of the Spirit Hall Empire vigorously promoted intermarriage between citizens of the two former Two Great Empires.

Those resurrected by Oscar were the most cooperative, because their emperor had given them a second chance.

After everything was arranged as planned, Oscar began to travel around the mainland from time to time, which could be considered a formal inspection tour.

Some of the good leaders were promoted and given titles, while the bad ones were dragged into prison and had their assets confiscated...

Oscar did not unite all the Soul Master factions on the continent into one place, but rather wanted them to flourish and compete freely.

However, those who establish their own sects must submit to the empire, pay taxes annually, and obtain official imperial approval.

Anyone who disobeys will be considered a traitor, and their entire family will be exterminated without exception. Even the Clear Sky Sect must abide by this rule.

Unexpectedly, he became the ruler of an empire right after emerging from seclusion, but since this was the general trend for all Soul Master factions, everyone felt at peace with it.

Moreover, the election of the new Seven Great Sects a year later is also a direction to strive for, because the Upper Three Sects of the Seven Great Sects only need to pay 10% of the tax, Lower Four Sects pay 20% of the tax.

This is much easier than other Soul Master factions, and in addition, the Seven Great Sects can also enjoy some benefits from the imperial family.

As time went on, everything was developing in the direction Oscar wanted.

The Star Dou Alliance was established on the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest. From now on, Soul Master will need to obtain proof to acquire Soul Ring and then find a suitable Soul Spirit. The same applies to the Extreme North Alliance.

In the other large and small Spirit Beast Forest, powerful Soul Beast from the two major alliances and high-ranking officials of the Empire also came out to preside over the affairs.

Shrek Royal Academy remains an Imperial Academy, and because Emperor Oscar once studied at the Shrek Academy, it now also holds the title of the number one academy on the continent.

The original Heaven Dou Royal Academy was directly merged into the Shrek Academy, forming the Shrek Academy Outer School.

The outer academy recruits Soul Master from all over the continent; anyone who reaches level 15 or above before the age of twelve can study there.

The Inner Academy is the core of the Shrek Royal Academy, with even stricter requirements. However, anyone who graduates from the Inner Academy can at least enter the upper echelons of the Empire or directly enter the Sword Sect.

The Slaughter City has now been completely taken over by Dugu Yan. With the fall of the King of Slaughter, the Slaughter City is essentially ownerless and has directly benefited Dugu Yan.

Having gained control of the Slaughter City, reaching level 90 within a year would be much easier. However, Dugu Yan did not slack off, as she was well aware of the difficulties and obstacles to becoming a god.

Therefore, she will only put in more effort.

In particular, Oscar's bet with Qian Renxue revealed to her that Oscar and Qian Renxue were already married, and that Dugu Yan would have to be wary of Qian Renxue, the sixth daughter, if she wanted to maintain her position as the matriarch.

After all, she is currently focusing all her efforts on passing the Angel God Examination, and she may very well surpass Dugu Yan in the future.

However, Oscar also told Dugu Yan that if all else fails, he would give her a cheat code. With Oscar's Sausage and Dugu Yan's terrifying strength, Qian Renxue basically has no chance of overtaking him.

But Dugu Yan was also a strong-willed woman, and she would never cheat.

Since that woman Qian Renxue is so delusional, wanting to overtake others, Dugu Yan will use her absolute strength to make her understand who the true mistress is! After completely gaining control of the Slaughter City, Dugu Yan also has a special kind of control over Slaughter City, and she seems to have discovered some good things.

In Angel City, at the Angel Sanctuary, Oscar and Qian Daoliu sat side by side, after all, he was his future father-in-law.

Oscar raised his hand and took out the sealed Bibi Dong from the Soul Tool, handing it to Qian Daoliu.

Oscar, who possesses Space-Time Soul Core, slowed down the flow of time within the sealed space. At this moment, Bibi Dong was still a cloud of blood mist, and her recovery speed was almost the same as if she hadn't recovered at all.

Qian Daoliu accepted the seal and casually put it into his Soul Tool.

"She's a real worry for Xue'er right now, so let Xue'er handle it herself." Qian Daoliu smiled warmly. "Thank you."

Oscar smiled slightly, "Why are we still so distant?"

Qian Daoliu laughed heartily, "That's true, but now that you're Eternal Great Emperor, you still don't have any offspring, which is a bit unreasonable..."

Seeing Qian Daoliu's eyes, Oscar knew what this guy was up to.

Then let Xue'er work hard so she can pass the Angel God Examination sooner and marry me sooner.

I don't want to affect her before this happens.

Of course, if she isn't fast enough, the Queen's position will belong to her sister once she emerges from seclusion.

Qian Daoliu knew that the sister Oscar mentioned was Dugu Yan, and he also heard Oscar's implication that Dugu Yan now also had Divine Inheritance.

Oscar told Qian Daoliu that he was not biased and that fairness was the priority in all matters, but Oscar deliberately revealed some information about Dugu Yan in order to give Qian Daoliu and Qian Renxue some advance preparation.

After all, Dugu Yan's current strength far surpasses Qian Renxue's. She has two Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Rings and two Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Spirit. Beating Qian Renxue is like child's play for her.

Oscar naturally wouldn't say much, but deep down he still favored Dugu Yan, after all, she was his first and only woman.

Although his relationship with Ye Lingling was ambiguous, Oscar hadn't crossed any lines; at most, it was just a little ambiguous.

His Master's Wife and his wife tried to match him up with Shui Bing'er, but their relationship was not as good as his feelings for Ye Lingling; it was purely Shui Bing'er's unrequited love.

It's not that Oscar doesn't like beautiful women, but he won't cross the line with other women before he marries his sister.

As long as his sister emerges from seclusion, marries him, and secures her position as Queen, Oscar will not let any of these women with whom he has ambiguous relationships go.

Besides those few, countless other forces are now vying to select consorts for the Eternal Great Emperor, hoping to produce an heir as soon as possible...

Oscar could only agree to it for the time being, and then kept putting it off...

P. S.: Typos will be corrected first and then fixed later.
