The Star Luo Emperor was still far more capable in this regard than the Heaven Dou and Heaven Spirit Emperors combined.
Ever since he had seen the Sun Moon Empire cooperating with the royal family through the Heavenly Curtain and noticed a hint of something amiss, he had swiftly made his decision.
He immediately began recruiting for and expanding the Western Group Army, bolstering his confidence for a direct confrontation with the Sun Moon Empire's forces.
Yet Xu Jiawei had never expected the future Sun Moon Empire to be so powerful.
It fought on three fronts and captured the Heaven Dou Empire so quickly.
No matter how incompetent the Heaven Dou Empire and Dou Ling Empire were, as their neighbor, he knew something of their situation.
Compared with the relatively progressive Star Luo Empire, those two were practically lying flat, unwilling to make any effort.
But no matter how incompetent they were, they should not have had their imperial capital breached by the Sun Moon Empire's army in barely more than ten days.
This exposed one issue: when the Sun Moon Empire launched that future war of unification, it absolutely would have accumulated sufficient strength and possessed enough confidence before going to war.
If so, it would be exceedingly troublesome for the former Douluo Three Kingdoms.
After all, such power could never be amassed overnight. In other words, the Sun Moon Empire already possessed such capabilities now.
All it lacked was prewar mobilization and a suitable pretext for the Sun Moon Empire to wage war against the former Douluo Three Kingdoms.
Fortunately, the Sun Moon Empire's wolfish ambitions had already been exposed by the Heavenly Curtain.
The former Douluo Three Kingdoms could also prepare and remain vigilant in advance. At the very least, they would not be caught off guard
