Like a Thorn in the Back, a Bone in the Throat, and Sitting on Needles

Everyone was stunned by Xiao Gui's sudden Divine War declaration.

It was utterly baffling, completely without reason!

That was the first reaction of the onlookers present.

If Xiao Gui had suddenly declared Divine War on some of the trash gods present to strengthen his own Divine Spark, everyone could understand that!

But instead, Xiao Gui's chosen target was Wodema, whose strength had just skyrocketed after devouring Zhang Dongyang's Divine Spark!

This, damn it, made things seem a bit strange.

Logically, at this moment, Xiao Gui had no advantage against Wodema!

"What the hell is going on?"

"No idea, I just see things getting more and more chaotic. I really don't know what use this immunity period even has anymore!"

"Yeah, it was supposed to protect us, but now it's turned into a slaughterhouse. No one knows if they'll be someone else's target in the next moment!"

"This is too brutal. Is this the real World of Gods?"

The onlookers whispered among themselves, their expressions far from pleasant!

In truth, panic had already set in.

Divine Envoy Shabi also realized things were slipping further and further out of his control.

He couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.

As the guide for this batch of new gods, protecting them through the immunity period was his true mission!

Yet now, driven by his own selfish motives, he had let the situation spiral in an uncontrollable direction!

"Divine Envoy, I wish to declare Divine War on Wodema!"

At that moment, Ye Yu suddenly stepped forward as well.

Without any warning!

The onlookers were all stunned into silence.

One Xiao Gui wasn't enough, now there's a Ye Yu too?

My god!

Are we still asleep?

Or did something happen that we don't know about?

Wodema was taken aback.

The next moment, a hint of glee flickered in his eyes.

To be honest, even though he felt his strength had already surpassed Xiao Gui's, he didn't want to engage in a Divine War with him right now.

After all, Xiao Gui's strength wasn't that much weaker than his.

He didn't have a hundred percent guarantee of victory.

But Ye Yu was different!

Even if Ye Yu had devoured Ma Baoguo's Divine Spark, his strength would at most rise to the level Ma Baoguo had been at!

Even if Ye Yu had some unknown trump card, Wodema was confident he could handle it.

Plus, the Divine Envoy had already ordered him to take out Ye Yu!

Now that Ye Yu had suddenly jumped out on his own, it couldn't be more perfect for him.

"Ye Yu, you..."

Xiao Gui was anxious.

His deepest obsession was to wait until the immunity period ended and have a fair fight with Ye Yu!

At that time, he, Xiao Gui, would step on Ye Yu, the former number one genius of Arbor, to rise to power!

He would become the rightful strongest new god of Arbor God City!

That was Xiao Gui's fixation!

Until his goal was achieved, he wouldn't allow anyone to ruin it!

So when he saw Ye Yu about to declare Divine War on Wodema, he panicked.

Ye Yu ignored Xiao Gui entirely and fixed his gaze on Shabi.

"Divine Envoy, why don't you say something?"

Ye Yu's sudden declaration of Divine War on Wodema naturally had its reasons.

Because he, too, had set his sights on Wodema's current Divine Spark.

If he could devour Wodema's Divine Spark, his own strength would surge by another level!

Unless the other new gods followed his lead and recklessly devoured other deities' Divine Sparks.

Otherwise, among this batch of new gods, no one would be able to threaten him.

By then, he only needed to focus on dealing with the Divine Envoy, Shabi.

Of course, Ye Yu filing a Divine War application against Wodema now didn't mean the war would start today.

He decided to set the Divine War three days from now.

By then, with a three-day preparation period, the Sand sculpture players in his Divine Domain would at least double in strength.

Add in the numerical advantage!

He had absolute confidence in crushing Wodema.

"You want to apply for a Divine War?"

The Divine Envoy Shabi couldn't quite describe his feelings at that moment.

Part surprise, part unease.

Ye Yu was too calm—so calm it struck Shabi as eerie.

"That's right. I'm declaring a Divine War on Wodema, three days from now!"

"Divine Envoy, make your decision!"

Ye Yu fixed his gaze on Shabi and spoke slowly.

Hearing this, Shabi's cheek twitched rapidly.

His mind raced with analysis.

"Ye Yu is this composed—does he really have some hidden card?"

"Right now, the surface strength is obvious. Ye Yu is no match for Wodema!"

"And yet he dares to declare a Divine War without hesitation—maybe he does have a trump card!"

"That's right. Last time he fought Ma Baoguo, he had that same calm demeanor!"

"What do I do? Should I allow it?"

"If I agree and lose Wodema, wouldn't that be a disaster?"

The more Shabi thought, the more his head ached. For a moment, he couldn't decide whether to permit this Divine War!

Seeing Shabi hesitate, Xiao Gui grew anxious.

"Divine Envoy, I applied first!"

Shabi shot Xiao Gui an exasperated glare.

"Go cool off somewhere!"

As the Divine Envoy, Shabi had ulterior motives.

But before he could finish off Ye Yu, he truly didn't dare let anything happen to Xiao Gui.

After all, Xiao Gui, as Arbor God City's top genius, had barely made a name for himself in front of Great God Arbor.

If such a genius suddenly fell, Shabi wouldn't escape unscathed either.

Of course, if Wodema could smoothly eliminate Ye Yu and devour his Divine Spark, then Xiao Gui's life or death would be trivial.

With Wodema replacing Xiao Gui, Shabi believed Great God Arbor wouldn't have much to say.

That was Shabi's plan.

As the challenged party, Wodema saw the Divine Envoy dragging his feet.

He grew anxious too.

"Divine Envoy, please allow Ye Yu's Divine War request!"

At these words, the entire crowd of onlookers stood dumbfounded, utterly bewildered.

Crazy, crazy!

Xiao Gui was crazy, Ye Yu was crazy, and Wodema was crazy!

Every last one of them had lost their minds!

Was a Divine War really that tempting?

Should we give it a try too?

"Fine, This Envoy agrees to you and Ye Yu starting a Divine War!"

After hesitating a bit longer, Shabi finally made his decision.

Whether Ye Yu had a trump card or not, he was still someone Shabi wanted to eliminate.

Otherwise, he'd always feel like there was a thorn in his side.

Making him feel like a knife at his back, a fishbone stuck in his throat, or sitting on pins and needles!

"Three days from now, I'll be here, waiting for your battle!"

Ye Yu didn't wait for Shabi to announce the Divine War time; he looked directly at Wodema and spoke.

Hearing this, neither Shabi nor Wodema found anything wrong with it.

For one, Wodema had just finished a Divine War today; starting another one immediately would obviously be inappropriate.

After all, his Believers also needed time to rest and recover.

For another, Shabi and Wodema didn't think Ye Yu could stir up any trouble in three days.

Shabi nodded right away and said.

"Fine, then three days from now, you and Wodema will have the Divine War!"
