The evaluation on the Sky Curtain slowly dissipated, and the original images gradually blurred.
Seeing this, everyone was stunned where they stood.
Could it be that it was ending?
No way, right?
They were just getting into it, and it was ending already?
Besides, the images had neither head nor tail; ending it like this felt strange no matter how they looked at it!
Just as the Sky Curtain was about to vanish, a few lines of text suddenly appeared!
[This exposure has ended!]
[The next round of exposure will begin in one month. Please look forward to it!]
Seeing the information on the Sky Curtain, everyone finally realized that it was only a temporary conclusion!
Star Luo Empire, in front of the Star Luo Imperial Palace.
"Before Elder Ye returns, I must trouble you all to guard this Star Luo Imperial City."
Xu Jiawei's eyes flickered slightly.
As soon as these words were spoken, the several titled Douluo present were slightly taken aback, but they quickly reacted.
"Your Majesty, what do you mean?" Shattered Star Douluo's expression sank.
"The information exposed on the Sky Curtain this time, regardless of whether it is true or false, will inevitably make the Sun Moon Empire and the Holy Spirit Cult wary. Even the Heavenly Soul and Dou Spirit empires are very likely to become our enemies."
Xu Jiawei nodded, his expression grave as he said, "We must be prepared to prevent any potential enemies from attacking!"
Although Gu Tian is not yet known to the whole world, he recently awakened a top-tier Martial Soul with Innate Soul Power exceeding ten at the Star Luo Imperial City Awakening Hall.
As long as someone with ill intent investigates, they can easily find out Gu Tian's general information and his current location.
When that time comes, he will be met with endless assassinations.
Aside from the Star Luo Empire, and perhaps Shrek Academy, it is unlikely that any other faction would want to see Gu Tian rise.
It is easy to imagine how dangerous the current situation is for Gu Tian, or rather, for the Star Luo Empire.
Hearing this, everyone quickly realized the severity of the situation.
"In that case, aren't we now enemies with the entire world!"
A strange look appeared on the face of Heavenly Fiend Douluo.
In his early years, he had been hunted by several major sects of the Spirit Empire, which led him to defect to the Worship Hall of the Star Luo Empire to seek protection.
Conversely, under the relentless pressure of the Sun Moon Empire, the three great empires of Star Luo, Heaven Soul, and Spirit had formed an alliance, leaving him no way to exact his revenge. Perhaps this time, it would be an opportunity.
"The whole world as an enemy? Not quite."
Xu Jiawei shook his head and said, "As long as Shrek Academy stands on our side, then the Heaven Soul and Spirit empires will not stand in opposition to us."
This was no lie. Shrek, the number one academy on the continent, had long since transcended the nature of a mere school.
It held a pivotal position across the entire continent and exerted massive influence within the Spirit and Heaven Soul empires; its principal could even stand on equal footing with emperors.
"Now we can only pin our hopes on Elder Ye being able to bring Shrek Academy in as an ally for our Star Luo Empire."
Xuanji Douluo sighed softly.
As a legion commander of the Star Luo Empire, his personality was such that he did not like to pin his hopes on others.
But helplessly, in the current situation, only by joining forces could the Star Luo Empire and Shrek Academy protect that little one who would lead the rise of the Star Luo Empire, and indeed the entire human race, in the future.
"It's not just Shrek; perhaps we can also attempt to win over the Soul Beast Clan and the Body Sect."
After a moment of contemplation, Star Cloud Douluo said, "The power of these two sides is not a whit inferior to Shrek."
He was not just moaning without cause. In that vanished Sky Curtain, Gu Tian was not only the future Star Luo Emperor and Master of the Sea God Pavilion, but also the new Lord of Soul Beasts and the object to whom the Body Sect would pledge their future loyalty.
This meant that there was a possibility of winning over both the Soul Beast Clan and the Body Sect.
As long as these forces were combined, even if the Sun Moon Empire and the Holy Spirit Cult joined hands, they would pose no threat.
"The Body Sect is worth a try, but the Soul Beast Clan..."
Regarding the former, Xu Jiawei naturally agreed, but he was very wary of the latter.
Those who are not of our race will surely have different hearts.
This held true in any world.
At this point in time, for humans to reach a cooperative alliance with soul beasts could almost only be described as impossible.
"I once heard that within the Star Dou Forest, there is a 500,000-year-old Jade Heavenly Swan, ranked fourth among the Ten Great Fierce Beasts—Bi Ji, the strongest healing-type soul beast."
"She is kind and does everything in her power to prevent war and heal injured soul beasts."
Just then, Wang Xian'er suddenly spoke up: "If we can persuade her, perhaps it is worth a try."
"This..."
Xu Jiawei still wore a look of hesitation.
It was no wonder he was so cautious.
After all, if things were not handled properly, it could easily lead to playing with fire and getting burned.
He was not that peerless emperor from the Sky Curtain who had unified the entire Douluo Continent and fostered peace between humans and soul beasts.
Setting aside the situation regarding the soul beasts, even within the Star Luo Empire alone, this would stir up monstrous waves.
"This matter still requires waiting for Elder Ye to return."
"The Star Dou Great Forest is right next to Shrek Academy. If those great fierce beasts inside make any moves, Shrek Academy will definitely be the first to react."
After a long while, Xu Jiawei slowly spoke: "Therefore, the top priority right now is whether we, Star Luo, can reach an alliance with Shrek."
"That is true. Even if we reach a cooperation with that Beast God of the Star Dou Great Forest, as long as Shrek Academy remains a stumbling block, it won't be of much use."
Hearing this, Wang Xian'er sighed and said: "I hope everything goes smoothly!"
"Alright, esteemed Enshrined, discuss among yourselves and select two people to protect Gu Tian in secret!"
Xu Jiawei waved his hand and said: "We shall discuss other matters once Elder Ye returns."
"Understood." The Enshrined nodded, then turned and left.
They all knew very well in their hearts.
After today, the entire Star Luo Empire would likely see major upheavals!
No!
It was not just the Star Luo Empire that would see major upheavals; every faction across the entire Douluo Continent would be shaken.
And the very center of this storm was the Star Luo Imperial Capital, or rather, the location of that peerless talent destined to change the landscape of the entire world.
At the same time.
The Douluo Continent was surging with undercurrents at this very moment.
Azure Luan Douluo, Master of the Hall of Enshrinement of the Star Luo Empire, met with Mu En, the Dragon God Douluo and current Master of the Sea God Pavilion of Shrek Academy.
Zhongli Wu, leader of the Holy Spirit Cult, and the old Sun Moon Emperor reached a silent cooperation.
The Heaven Dou Empire and the Spirit Dou Empire, two nations that had originally been divided, also held secret meetings regarding critical decisions.
Niu Tian and Titan, the two sect masters of the Clear Sky Sect, attempted to communicate with Tang San in the God Realm, but to no avail.
Only the Soul Beast Clan, whether in the Extreme North or the Star Dou Great Forest, remained quiet, as if waiting for something.
