Douluo's Strange Situation (3)

Everyone present was intelligent.

Even Golden Eyed Black Dragon King Di Tian, who was taking notes with a little notebook off to the side; Ice Dragon King and Fire Dragon King, whom Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena had revived—or, more accurately, reshaped into physical bodies—and who were still in their infancy; as well as Bi Ji, Zi Ji, and the others responsible for serving tea, all understood the core of Ye Qingcang's proposal and grasped the basis for his certainty that the plan would work.

The viability of this plan lay in human nature.

Once a large number of Soul Beasts formed contracts with summoners,

the summoners would instinctively regard those Soul Beasts as part of their own strength.

Then, would any summoner selflessly allow a Soul Beast that had already become their summoned beast to be slaughtered, or forced to pay Soul Power to create a soul ring, merely so it could survive at the hands of another Soul Master?

Obviously not!

People were selfish!

They would not hesitate when it came to benefiting themselves at others' expense.

But when it came to harming themselves for others' benefit, everyone would resist.

Thus, summoners who had formed contracts with Soul Beasts would consciously stand on the Soul Beasts' side. Using humans to check humanity itself, and using the influence of summoners to counter Soul Masters—this was truly a stroke of genius.

Moreover, including both Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena,

all the Soul Beasts present understood.

Summoners were merely an example Ye Qingcang had casually picked for convenience. In truth, this system could be extended far beyond summoners. Knights, magicians, priests, assassins, warriors, and even Soul Masters could all choose this path.

Put simply, for knights,

it did not matter if they could not earn the recognition of the Light Unicorns
