Everyone was stunned by Xiao Gui's sudden application for a Divine War.
It made no sense at all!
That was the first thought that came to the minds of the onlookers.
If Xiao Gui had suddenly challenged a few useless gods present to a Divine War in order to strengthen his Divine Spark, everyone would have understood!
But instead, he had chosen Wodema, whose power had skyrocketed after just devouring Zhang Dongyang's Divine Spark!
This was just bizarre.
By all rights, Xiao Gui shouldn't have any advantage over Wodema right now!
"What's going on?"
"No idea. I just know things are getting more and more chaotic. I really don't see what use this Immunity Period is anymore!"
"Yeah. It was supposed to protect us, but now it's turned into a slaughterhouse. Nobody knows whether they'll be someone else's next target!"
"This is too cruel. Is this what the World of Gods is really like?"
The onlookers whispered among themselves, their expressions grim.
In fact, everyone was already on edge.
Divine Envoy Shabi also realized that 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,
his true mission was to protect them and see them safely through the Immunity Period!
But now, because of his own selfish motives, he had already allowed things to spiral beyond his control!
"Divine Envoy, I want to challenge Wodema to a Divine War!"
Just then, Ye Yu suddenly stepped forward.
Without warning!
The onlookers gaped in shock.
One Xiao Gui wasn't enough? Now Ye Yu, too?
Good heavens!
Were we still dreaming?
Or had something happened that we didn't know about?
Wodema paused.
The next moment, a trace of delight flashed in his eyes.
Honestly, although he felt that he was now stronger than Xiao Gui,
he still didn't want to fight Xiao Gui right now.
After all, Xiao Gui wasn't much weaker than him.
He wasn't certain he could win.
But Ye Yu was different!
Even after devouring Ma Baoguo's Divine Spark,
Ye Yu's strength could at most reach the level Ma Baoguo had once possessed!
Even if Ye Yu had some unknown trump card, Wodema was confident he could handle it.
Besides, the Divine Envoy had already asked him to eliminate Ye Yu!
With Ye Yu suddenly volunteering, it could hardly have suited him better.
"Ye Yu, you..."
Xiao Gui panicked.
What he cared about most was having a fair fight with Ye Yu after the Immunity Period ended!
Then he, Xiao Gui, would climb to the top by defeating Ye Yu, once Aragi's greatest genius!
He would become the undisputed strongest New God in Arbor God City!
That was Xiao Gui's obsession!
Until he achieved his goal, he wouldn't let anyone interfere!
So when he saw Ye Yu challenging Wodema to a Divine War, he grew anxious.
Ye Yu ignored Xiao Gui and turned his gaze to Shabi.
"Divine Envoy, why aren't you saying anything?"
Ye Yu had suddenly challenged Wodema for a reason.
He had his eye on Wodema's Divine Spark, too.
If he could devour Wodema's Divine Spark, his power would surge once again!
Unless the other New Gods were also willing to devour other gods' Divine Sparks without restraint, like he did,
there wouldn't be anyone among this batch of New Gods who could threaten him.
Then he would only have to focus on dealing with Divine Envoy Shabi.
Of course, Ye Yu's application to challenge Wodema didn't mean the Divine War would start today.
He decided to schedule it for three days later.
That would give him three days to prepare.
The Sand sculpture players in his Divine Domain could at least double their strength by then.
And with their advantage in numbers,
he was absolutely certain he could crush Wodema.
"You want to apply for a Divine War?"
Shabi couldn't quite tell how he felt.
He was both a little delighted and a little apprehensive.
Ye Yu was so calm that even Shabi found it unsettling.
"That's right. I want to challenge Wodema to a Divine War, three days from now!"
"Divine Envoy, make your decision!"
Ye Yu looked Shabi in the eye and spoke slowly.
Shabi's cheeks twitched several times.
He frantically tried to work things out.
"Ye Yu is so calm. Could he really have a trump card?"
"On the surface, the balance of power is obvious. Ye Yu is no match for Wodema!"
"He still dares to challenge him without hesitation. He might actually have some hidden trump card!"
"Right, he was just as calm when he fought Ma Baoguo in a Divine War!"
"What should I do? Should I approve it?"
"If I do and end up losing Wodema, won't that be a disaster?"
The more Shabi thought about it, the more his head hurt. For a moment, he couldn't decide whether to approve the Divine War!
Seeing Shabi hesitate,
Xiao Gui grew anxious.
"Divine Envoy, I applied first!"
Shabi shot Xiao Gui an exasperated look.
"Go cool off somewhere!"
As Divine Envoy, Shabi might have had ulterior motives,
but before he killed Ye Yu, he didn't dare let anything happen to Xiao Gui.
After all, as Arbor God City's greatest genius, Xiao Gui had at least made a name for himself with Great God Arbor.
If such a genius suddenly died,
Shabi wouldn't get off lightly.
Of course, if Wodema successfully eliminated Ye Yu and devoured his Divine Spark,
then Xiao Gui's life or death would no longer matter.
With Wodema taking Xiao Gui's place, Great God Arbor surely wouldn't say much.
That was Shabi's plan.
As the one being challenged, Wodema grew anxious when the Divine Envoy still didn't respond.
"Divine Envoy, please approve Ye Yu's challenge!"
At those words, the onlookers gaped, completely bewildered.
They were all crazy!
Xiao Gui was crazy, Ye Yu was crazy, and now Wodema was crazy, too!
They were all out of their minds!
Was a Divine War really that appealing?
Should we try one, too?
"Fine. I approve your Divine War with Ye Yu!"
After agonizing over it for a while longer, Shabi finally made up his mind.
Whether or not Ye Yu had a trump card, he was still someone Shabi wanted to eliminate.
Otherwise, it would always feel like a thorn in his back.
He would be on pins and needles, with a bone in his throat!
"Three days from now, I'll be here waiting to fight you!"
Before Shabi could announce the date of the Divine War, Ye Yu looked straight at Wodema and spoke.
Neither Shabi nor Wodema thought there was anything wrong with that.
For one thing, Wodema had just finished a Divine War today. Starting another right away would clearly be inappropriate.
After all, his Believers needed time to recover, too.
For another, Shabi and Wodema didn't think Ye Yu could make any waves in just three days.
Shabi nodded and said,
"Fine. You and Wodema will fight in a Divine War three days from now!"
