Tang San's True Face, the Crowd in Uproar

After confirming that Huo Yuhao would definitely join Shrek Academy, Xuan Zi looked at Huo Yuhao in the Heavenly Screen and found the youth more and more agreeable, with nothing but merits from head to toe.

However, the Heavenly Screen did not continue showing the scenes of Huo Yuhao and Bei Bei getting along. Instead, the scene shifted to another strange realm.

[Accompanied by mist flowing with a gentle halo, in this strange space where neither sun nor moon could be seen yet light remained, a tall figure with sea-blue long hair reaching his feet stood amidst the clouds—it was Sea God Tang San. His blue eyes, like deep-sea whirlpools, gazed down at the mortal world, with a youth's silhouette reflected in his pupils.

"Heh..." Watching the friendly interactions between Huo Yuhao, Tang Ya, and Bei Bei below, Tang San suddenly let out a contemptuous scoff. "Douluo Star Will... even at this point, you still refuse to give up."

"Back then, to oppose me and reduce my influence, you spared no effort in crashing the Sun Moon Continent into the Douluo Continent, smashing my Sea God Island into pieces, and using the Soul Tool System to suppress my Tang Sect."

"Now, you've even spawned this Son of Destiny, with a Million Year Soul Beast as his first soul ring and an Otherworld God King Remnant Soul—is that the teacher you've prepared for him? Trying to raise a God King to oppose me?"

A sinister cold smile spread across Tang San's face. "What a pity... I'm still one step ahead. Your schemes have long been seen through by my world-shaking wisdom! From the moment he joined the Tang Sect, my dog leash was already around his neck."

"From now on, his opportunities and his luck will all become the kindling for the Tang Sect's revival! They will become my stepping stone to take a further step into the God King Realm!"

"Since you refuse to wait obediently for death, like a mantis trying to stop a chariot, then watch—watch how I crush your hopes!"

"Watch how I, little by little, train this Son of Destiny you've placed such high hopes on into an obedient dog!"

"Heh heh heh hahahaha..."

In the end, Tang San couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Just then, a cold voice suddenly sounded from not far away: "Tang San, what are you laughing at?"

Tang San's laughter stopped abruptly. He turned silently, his expression indifferent as he said, "Nothing, just remembered something happy. Destruction, what brings you here?"

The God of Destruction, emitting a destructive aura, said coldly, "I came to see if you've been illegally interfering with the mortal world."

Tang San frowned in displeasure. "Destruction, as a God Realm Enforcer, how could I illegally interfere with the mortal world? This is slander against me!"

"When I ascended back then, I didn't even bring my most respected teacher up to the God Realm. My dearest love, the Phoenix God, begged me to bring his lover up, and I flatly refused—all to avoid breaking the God Realm Laws and Rules. Now, how could I knowingly break the law?"

The God of Destruction snorted coldly. "Hmph, you'd better be as righteous as you claim. I know you've been keeping an eye on Douluo Star in recent years. You'd better not let me catch evidence of you interfering with the mortal world, or I'll make sure you regret it!"

"Douluo Star is where I was born, my hometown. What's wrong with paying attention to it? Destruction, your prejudice against me is too great!"

Tang San met the God of Destruction's gaze without a hint of guilt. "You're an enforcer, and so am I. I'm not your subordinate. You'd better not speak to me in that tone."

"Hmph! I'll be watching you!" The God of Destruction snorted coldly and swept away.

The moment the God of Destruction turned and left, Tang San clenched his fists, his eyes red, panting like an ox as he muttered under his breath toward the retreating figure: "Trying to interfere with my ten thousand year plan? Destruction, you have a death wish..."

Before he could finish his sentence, the distant God of Destruction suddenly looked back.

Tang San instantly shut his mouth, switching back to a calm, indifferent demeanor with his hands clasped behind his back.

The God of Destruction stared at Tang San for a few more seconds before withdrawing his gaze, his figure vanishing into the mist.]

The next moment, the Heavenly Screen scene changed again, returning to Huo Yuhao, Bei Bei, and Tang Ya.

But by now, no one on the continent had the mind to pay attention to Huo Yuhao learning the Tang Sect's secret arts in the Heavenly Screen.

That short segment of the God Realm earlier was like a nuclear bomb, directly detonating the emotions of countless people on the Douluo Continent.

The information packed into that brief scene was too much, overwhelming to take in.

The Douluo Star beneath people's feet actually had a will!

Sea God Tang San, for some unknown purpose, had actually tried to harm the Douluo Star Will! To the point of provoking its fierce resistance.

The collision between the Sun Moon Continent and the Douluo Continent back then was actually actively caused by the Douluo Star Will to weaken the Sea God's influence and power!

Huo Yuhao was actually the Child of Destiny on whom the Douluo Star Will had placed its highest hopes!

That being that had drilled into Huo Yuhao's head was actually a God King Remnant Soul, a teacher specially prepared for Huo Yuhao by the Douluo Star Will!

According to Sea God Tang San's words, the Douluo Star Will was planning to fast-track Huo Yuhao to the God King Realm! A realm even Tang San, who became a god ten thousand years ago, had yet to reach!

If not for the malice displayed by Sea God Tang San, Huo Yuhao would undoubtedly have become the most envied, jealous, and hated being in Douluo Continent history at this moment.

But this youth favored by Heaven's Will, before he could even grow, had been targeted by a lofty god, who wanted to seize his luck and fortune and train him into a dog!

It was a suffocating pressure and darkness.

Countless people on the Douluo Continent had their worldviews shattered.

That was Sea God Tang San! In the legends of ten thousand years, he was a noble and righteous god! A great being who defeated the evil Martial Soul Empire and saved the entire continent.

Yet in the Heavenly Screen, he appeared in such a loathsome guise!

Had Tang San fallen after becoming a god, corrupted by time, or had his true face always been like this?

If he had always been this evil, then what about the other gods who associated with him?

Was the Martial Soul Empire they defeated ten thousand years ago truly evil?

One question after another, following the exposure of the Sea God's evil face in the Heavenly Screen, appeared in the minds of everyone on the continent.

And among all those whose worldviews were shaken, the ones who found it hardest to accept the Sea God's evil image in the Heavenly Screen were his believers and worshippers.

Ever since the Sun Moon Continent crashed into the Douluo Continent thousands of years ago, turning Sea God Island into part of the Ming Dou Mountain Range and causing the Tang Sect's decline, the faith in the Sea God on the Douluo Continent had gradually collapsed.

Although Shrek Academy still served as a major propaganda point, somewhat consolidating people's faith and reverence for the Sea God, the era of the Sea God's ascension was simply too distant. Most people on the Douluo Continent held goodwill and a certain degree of respect toward the Sea God, but that was all.
